San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu said his office is investigating the video.
showing a San Rafael police officer dropping off a homeless man on the streets of San Francisco.
ABC7 obtained the clip from a San Francisco resident who took the footage of the officer leaving the man in a residential Inner Richmond neighborhood at 14th Avenue near Lake Street on July 30. After the San Rafael Police Department officer left, the man proceeded to light an object on fire and throw rocks, and neighbors called the San Francisco Police Department, the TV station said.
"While we are just beginning to look into this, make no mistake — we will hold any jurisdiction accountable that is proven to engage in this behavior," Chiu wrote on Twitter."It's disturbing that another jurisdiction would drop off someone experiencing homelessness or mental health challenges in the middle of a residential neighborhood in SF with no resources around."
