SFPD Seek Public Assistance in Robbery of a News Crew Case

In the early morning of July 2, 2015, two news crews were on the Embarcadero covering a homicide that occurred the night before. As the crews were getting ready for a live shot, they were robbed at gunpoint of their camera equipment. One camera man was struck with the pistol and sustained a head injury. The other three victims were not injured.

The suspects are described as three black males, all wearing dark clothing, with one suspect having dreadlocks. The suspect vehicle is described as a black BMW 7 series with upgraded BMW rims, no plates. Attached is a photo of one of the suspects, the weapon used, and the stolen camera equipment.
