San Francisco Trader Joe’s Theft Ends in Fatal Vehicle Crash as Officers Are Struck

A man attempting to steal from Trader Joe’s in San Francisco fled from two officers and was fatally struck by an oncoming car, injuring the two officers who pursued him. The driver of the other vehicle is cooperating, and investigators say the crash was unrelated to the Trader Joe’s incident. The suspect died at the hospital, and the officers were hospitalized with leg injuries but are expected to recover; authorities also noted an arson-related incident in the same parking lot earlier.
