The founder of Cash App, who was murdered in San Francisco, had previously fled the city due to its rising crime rate, his friend revealed.
Bob Lee, 43, was stabbed to death near downtown San Francisco early on Tuesday, putting a national spotlight on the rising crime in the city. The deteriorating situation was not lost on Lee himself, who had fled to Miami due to the increasing crime, according to his friend, former UFC fighter Jake Shields."He did comment on San Francisco deteriorating, which is why he actually had just relocated to Miami," Shields told the Daily Mail.
"So I'm not, I'm not sure why he's going back there to get a little business back in San Francisco for a couple of days," he added. He expressed dismay over the declining state of the city and doubted that anything would change over Lee's death.
