Four men have been arrested in connection with the shooting of San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Keion White at a nightclub in February, officials announced Wednesday.
The shooting occurred shortly after 4 a.m. on Feb. 9 at Dahlia, a nightclub in San Francisco's Mission District, where White was hosting a private Super Bowl party. White sustained a gunshot wound to the ankle and underwent surgery at a local hospital.
San Francisco Police Chief Derrick Lew stated that law enforcement agencies in Atlanta, Stockton, California, Irvine, California, and Los Angeles assisted in the arrests over the past week. According to Lew, multiple armed individuals confronted White on the night of the incident. Investigators identified the suspects using video footage and witness accounts.
On October 7, authorities arrested Curtis Green, 35, in Irvine. Two days later, Gregory Walker, 36, of Mountain House, California, was arrested for his alleged involvement. Both men were booked into San Francisco County Jail on Monday. District Attorney Brooke Jenkins indicated that prosecutors would seek no bail for Walker, citing public safety concerns, and that he would face charges including assault with a semiautomatic firearm and illegal firearm possession as a felon. Green faces misdemeanor charges of brandishing a firearm and carrying a loaded firearm in public.
Two additional men arrested in other jurisdictions have not yet been brought to San Francisco and will face charges once transferred. One of these individuals, a 38-year-old man arrested in Atlanta on October 7, was apprehended on a no-bail warrant. Authorities reportedly seized an illegal firearm and significant quantities of MDMA, methamphetamine, cocaine, and fentanyl from his residence. On the same day, a 36-year-old man was arrested in Stockton, California, in connection with the shooting. Law enforcement recovered a loaded firearm, over 100 oxycodone pills, and approximately $7,000 in cash during this arrest.
