Film crew robbed at gunpoint at Twin Peaks, S.F. police say

A film crew was robbed at gunpoint Friday at San Francisco’s Twin Peaks, the Police Department said.

The film crew told officers they were approached by armed individuals who stole their film equipment and fled the scene at about 6:16 p.m., San Francisco police Officer Robert Rueca said.

Video of the incident shared on social media shows two men getting out of a vehicle and one person attacking an individual who appears to have been loading his truck, while another person points a handgun.

The video shows the men taking equipment from the truck before fleeing the scene.

This is a small story, but it underscores the incredibly brazen robbery attempts plaguing The Bay Area.
