A shooting occurred near a World Cup watch party at Spark Social in SF\u2019s Mission Bay neighborhood Tuesday night following the game, and both victims are expected to survive.<\/p>\n
The San Francisco Police Department said officers responded to reports of a shooting on the 600 block of Mission Bay Boulevard around 9:11 pm, where they found two people suffering from gunshot wounds, as the Chronicle reports<\/a>. Both were taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.<\/p>\n Based on a preliminary investigation, police say that an argument between individuals escalated, and a man pulled out a gun and opened fire on the victims before fleeing the scene. No arrests have been made, and the investigation remains ongoing.<\/p>\n The shooting happened outside Spark Social, the outdoor food truck market and gathering place in SF\u2019s Mission Bay, which had hosted a daylong World Cup watch party that ended with a DJ set after Mexico’s match against Ecuador<\/a>. Police have not said whether the shooting was connected to the event.<\/p>\n As noted by KTVU<\/a>, another watch party also took place three blocks away at Thrive City outside the Chase Center.<\/p>\n The aftermath of the Mexico v. Ecuador match, in which Mexico won 2-0, also led to some chaos<\/a> at a massive watch party in San Jose’s San Pedro Square, where crowds lingered for about two hours after the match ended, leading police to declare to an unlawful assembly and a dispersal order. Crowds reportedly swarmed an ambulance and climbed on top of it, and two people were reportedly injured in separate stabbings.<\/p>\n A large crowd also took over an intersection<\/a> in the Pacoima neighborhood of Los Angeles in the aftermath of Tuesday night’s match, and a sideshow broke out.<\/p>\n
