View Larger Map

The grim tally of yesterday's  early morning shooting outside Suede nightclub on Bay Street remains unchanged this morning, according to the Medical Examiner's office: One man is dead and multiple victims of early morning gunfire into a crowd are still living.

Lawon Hall, 19, of Richmond was killed on the scene and at least two other crowd members remain in critical condition following the outburst. A 20-year old Richmond man suspected of the shooting was himself shot on the scene by a San Francisco Patrol Special officer -- still referred to as an "armed security guard" in some media reports. Police hope to question the yet-to-be-named suspect when he recovers from his wounds.

What triggered the "altercation" within the club that led to the shooting outside of it is still largely unknown. Police are searching for witnesses to the incident and of the resultant shooting. They are encouraged to call the Police Department's confidential tip line at (415) 575-4444 or text a tip to TIP411.
