UPDATE: Teenage Boy Shot Dead In San Francisco Portola District

SAN FRANCISCO (BCN) -- A 16-year-old boy died in a shooting in San Francisco's Portola District early Tuesday morning, police said.

Officers responded shortly after 12:50 a.m. to the shooting and were flagged down at a gas station at Silver and San Bruno avenues, where they found the teen with gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene and his name is not yet being released.
