A man arrested in connection with a Father's Day shooting between two cars in crime-riddled San Francisco that went on for about a mile and injured six people is not being charged by San Francisco's district attorney.

Brooke Jenkins is not, for the time being, pursuing charges against Lee Alexander Haywood, 33, who was arrested Wednesday in connection with the shooting.

Her office cited a need to investigate what they deemed a 'complex' shooting further and left it open that Haywood may face charges in the future.

'This is a complex investigation involving multiple crime scene locations, many witnesses as well as significant evidence that must be analyzed,' she said.

'This type of investigation takes time to complete, and we are working with SFPD to ensure that they gather all relevant evidence that we need to evaluate this case and make appropriate charging decisions.'

Gunfire broke out last Sunday along the Embarcadero - the city's eastern shoreline - at around 7 p.m. local time.

People driving in a black SUV and a white sedan began firing at each other as they went towards Pier 39, police said.

They eventually shot and injured two young girls who were riding their bicycles across the street. One had to be hospitalized.

At least three others were injured by shattered glass that had been struck by their bullets. A girl also was injured after being hit by one of the vehicles involved in the gun battle, police said.

The black SUV eventually came to a stop while the white sedan drove away, authorities said.

Police found and detained Haywood, as well as a 28-year-old woman who has not yet been identified.

Both were hospitalized from gunfire, Haywood with life-threatening injuries. The woman has since been released while Haywood remains in hospital.

In Chicago, 2 armed gangs had a daytime full on western shootout at the OK corral. The DA pressed no charges.and used the phrase Consensual Mutual Combatants

Sounds like the powers to be Chicago are waiting for natural selection to occur.....

The DA pressed no charges.and used the phrase Consensual Mutual Combatants

Were these Mutual Combatants discharging illegal firearms illegally within city limits? Because those are crimes.
