Double Dutch Plays Host to Second Fatal Shooting in 13 Months

Scene from June 2012's shooting.

According to the Chronicle, one man was killed and another three men were shot outside Double Dutch in the waning hours of Independence Day celebrations:

24-year-old man was killed and three other men were injured in an early morning shooting Friday outside a bar in San Francisco's Mission District, authorities said.

Police said the assailant approached a group, pulled out a handgun and opened fire outside Double Dutch, a bar near 16th and Guerrero streets around 1:30 a.m.

This follows a “savage beating” and shooting fatality outside the same club in early June 2012, which we reported at the time, “patrons of nearby Kilowatt claimed to witness a 'savage beating' and shooting outside of Double Dutch at 16th and Guerrero.  Supposedly, after beating the victim to the ground, one of the attackers pushed a 9mm handgun in his chest and shot him.”

According to Mission Local, police described the suspect as “medium build, 6 feet 1 inch tall, between the ages of 25 and 30” and wearing a wearing a white shirt and white bandana.  He remains at large.

Seriously, no race? Come on!

Kudos to the police for imposing neither race nor gender upon the suspect.

Why are you using the same image?

Kevmo, consider your sad slack cut. Thank you for the speedy follow-up, even from eight time zones away. Cheers.

At least there is SOME description of the perpetrator.

I’m sick of riding the Double-Death bus - you heard it here first. The place is a screaming, puking, bottle-smashing nuisance on non-murder nights. Pull it’s card.

Never going here again!!!
