The suspected robber was shot during a struggle with Pearsall and was also being treated at SF General, police said.
The suspect was caught.
Probably because he was shot and couldn’t get away.
He was probably tackled and restrained by the pro football player. They are big, strong, and physical. There is no way any perp was going to outrun a pro football player with a 4.41 time in the 40-yard dash. The perp never had a chance to win or escape short of killing the rookie immediately. He picked the wrong victim, by miles.
