A rape victim whose DNA from her sexual assault case was used by San Francisco police to arrest her in an unrelated property crime on Monday filed a lawsuit against the city.

The San Francisco Police Department is warning people about robberies targeting people wearing high-end wrist watches, saying they are organized and coordinated crimes. 

Authorities are investigating the death of a 35-year-old man who twice told police and fire crews he couldn’t breathe as he was being held, face-down, after being handcuffed for several minutes, NBC Bay Area’s Investigative Unit has learned.

San Francisco police officers said in a statement they wont participate in the Pride Parade after controversy surrounding uniforms.

Two San Francisco police officers surrendered Tuesday to face charges of destroying evidence, while a retired officer, who had been working part-time with the gun destruction unit at the SFPD evidence room, faces unrelated felony charges of taking a soon-to-be-destroyed MP5 submachine gun and silencer home from the property room, authorities said.
