SFPD’s homicide department took control of the investigation and identified the juvenile suspects.

On Friday, officers served a search warrant at a building on Turk Street. The suspected shooters and the second boy were arrested and booked into the Juvenile Justice Center.

Authorities will not publicly identify the suspects due to their age. The victim has yet to be identified.
