Summary
Police have arrested a man wanted in a deadly double shooting aboard a Muni train in Eureka Valley Wednesday morning.
The suspect, identified as 26-year-old Javon Green, was arrested Thursday evening in Pittsburg.
At 9:56 a.m. on Wednesday, San Francisco police officers responded to the Forest Hill Station after receiving a report of a shooting.
Officers discovered the train left the station and was headed to Castro Station, where they proceeded and found two victims still on the train with gunshot wounds.
One victim, a 70-year-old man, was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
A second victim, a 27-year-old man, was pronounced dead at the scene, despite life-saving measures by members of the SFFD.
SFPD officers identified the suspect as Green in their investigation, and, with help from local police and a tactical team, executed a search and arrest warrant on the 1000 block of Power Avenue in Pittsburg.
The suspect was arrested without incident, a [police statement](https://www.sanfranciscopolice.org/news/san-francisco-police-investigate-park-district-homicide) said.
Green has been charged with homicide, carrying a concealed firearm, and using a firearm in the commission of a felony.
The SFPD said the incident appears to be isolated and is not believed to be related to Pride festivities or to be targeting any group or community.
Anyone with information regarding the incident is asked to call the SFPD Tip Line at 415-575-444 or Text a Tip to TIP411 and begin the text message with "SFPD."

I ride this route almost everyday and I’ve seen questionable ppl get on and off. I usually sit next to them in case any thing pops off (militarily vet here)
@BaconBack thank you for your service
Does anyone know what actually happened? These theories about how the city should work is taking away from the actual crime
quit the brainless political messages in this chat. it does nothing and is disrespectful to the person who literally just got killed.
I agree that there seems to be more crime but perceived crime and coverage is all that’s changed from the 80-90s. You’re gonna tell me now it’s worse? When people in the 80-90s were also getting kidnapped, raped and murdered let’s not pull up those numbers. There wasn’t as much coverage and believe me it was worse then. I’m an avid dateline and crime stat follower.
@kk_sf So we good is what you are saying.
