A man stabbed to death early Tuesday morning near downtown San Francisco was well-known tech mogul Bob Lee.
Lee was the founder of Cash App and the former chief technology officer of former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s company Square.
San Francisco Police said: “On April 4, 2023, at approximately 2:35 a.m., San Francisco Police officers from Southern Station responded to the 300 block of Main Street for a report of a stabbing.
“Officers arrived on scene and located a 43-year-old adult male victim suffering from apparent stab wounds.
“Officers rendered aid and summoned medics to the scene.
“The victim was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries.
“Despite efforts by first responders and medical personnel, the victim succumbed to his injuries.
“This incident is being investigated by the SFPD Homicide Detail.”
Elon Musk responded:
“Very sorry to hear that.
“Many people I know have been severely assaulted.
“Violent crime in SF is horrific and even if attackers are caught, they are often released immediately.
“Is the city taking stronger action to incarcerate repeat violent offenders @BrookeJenkinsSF?”

Is the city taking stronger action to incarcerate repeat violent offenders @BrookeJenkinsSF?

Former MMA champion Jake Shields said: “I just found out my good friend was killed last night while walking in San Francisco.
“He was in the ‘good’ part of the city and appeared to have been targeted in a random mugging/attack.
“F*ck San Francisco.”

Bob Lee is also a loyal friend
I tweeted Jack Dorsey belongs in prison and Bob called me and said I should delete the tweet because it wasn’t jacks fault
The Twitter files showed Bob was right Jack wasn’t involved in election meddling
