Next at 11 every other day is something out here either somebody getting robbed, you know, or you know, somebody getting killed, shot or hurt. Breaking news out of San Francisco tonight where police are investigating another deadly shooting, this time near a BART station. The 11:00 news on KTVU fox two starts now. And good evening, everyone. I'm Mike Mibach and i'm Julie Julie Haener. San Francisco police are investigating a deadly shooting near the Powell street Bart station. Let's get right to ctv's Jana Katsuyama with what we've learned. Jana Well, Julian, mike, i want to show you where we are. So this is the cable car turnaround at the Powell Street entrance. And over there is the Powell Street BART station. They cleared that just about ten minutes ago. Rio's open that entrance as well as the one here at Halliday Plaza. That's because they say this is where a shooting took place. Take a look at some video that we shot earlier today. Police say that they responded to reports of the shooting just before 840 tonight at Powell and Market Streets. Video shows officers investigating here at Halliday Plaza outside the entrance to the Powell Bart station when officers arrived, they say they found one male victim with a gunshot wound. He was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. One witness says they heard the victim give a woman a compliment before the man who was with her shot him. We're coming up the escalator to exit out of Powell Station and the guy shoots the dude who gave the compliment twice in the chest and took off running and police are telling us that they think this appears to be an isolated incident and they don't feel that there is any threat to the public. Just about ten minutes ago, the homicide investigators and also the medical examiner, Van, that was across the street cleared the scene. The entrances are back open to the Powell Street station. But certainly there is a lot of concern and many unanswered questions as to what the motive might have been to this. You know, whether there was a known relationship between the victim and the person who fired the shot. So right now, again, they're saying they don't believe that there is a larger threat to the public, but certainly unsettling for a lot of the people who are both inside the BART station, as well as the people who were outside. And we heard from some people who said that they heard the screams and then shortly after the police come and lock everything down. So we will be trying to get more information as this develops and as this investigation moves forward. All right
