Four men were shot<\/a> while trying to break up a fight between a man and a woman in San Francisco<\/a> on Saturday, police said. <\/p>\n

The shooting happened just before 1 a.m. on the corner of Mason and Market streets in the city\u2019s downtown Tenderloin District, San Francisco police told SFGate. <\/a><\/p>\n

The men who were shot were trying to intervene in an altercation between a man and woman, both of whom were strangers to them. <\/p>\n

As the group of good Samaritans tried to stop the pair from arguing, the man pulled out a firearm and shot them, police said. <\/p>\n

All four of the men were hospitalized with injuries, but are expected to survive. Authorities did not share the extent of their injuries or any other information about the victims. <\/p>\n
