»In which the police have my back

The SFPD locked down part of Divisadero this afternoon after some hooligans shot at a broomstick-wielding septuagenarian:

Police believe the incident involved two men in their 20s who apparently had a dispute with an older man who was sweeping outside a barber shop. The two suspected allegedly chased the older man, who at some point struck one of the two young men with his broomstick. One of the young men then pulled a gun and fired at least once, missing the older man, police said. A 42-year-old old male driving a vehicle a block away, however, was grazed in the head by the bullet. ... Police cordoned off the area to conduct a door-to-door search for more than two hours with information indicating the suspects entered one of the local businesses. Neither were located, police said. Police also were unable to locate the older man involved in the incident and witnesses at the scene were apparently uncooperative.
