SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — The San Francisco Police Department on June 10, 2026, publicly released body camera footage and additional investigative details from a May 31 shooting that critically wounded Officer Brittany Taylor following a vehicle pursuit and confrontation with a robbery suspect in the Bayview neighborhood. The department held a virtual town hall presentation to walk the public through the sequence of events.
Shortly before 10:30 p.m. on May 31, a license plate reader alerted officers to a gray Toyota Camry sedan associated with an armed robbery entering San Francisco via the Bay Bridge. Officers located the vehicle traveling northbound on Fifth Street from Folsom Street and, with drone support requested, attempted a traffic stop at Mission and First streets in the South of Market district at approximately 10:40 p.m. Bodycam footage captured officers ordering the driver to shut off the engine; the driver instead fled, leading officers on a pursuit that ended when the vehicle struck a concrete median at Bayshore Boulevard and Jerrold Avenue.
As officers approached the disabled vehicle and ordered the occupants to exit with their hands raised, the driver — later identified as Reed — emerged and immediately opened fire, striking Officer Taylor multiple times. Three officers, identified as Rachel Carranza, Jeremmy Catiller, and Angela Maniego, returned fire, striking a passenger in the vehicle, later identified as Ariunsanaaa Dolgorsuren. Taylor was transported to a local hospital, where she remained under medical care as of the time of the public briefing; officials characterized her as expected to survive. Dolgorsuren was arrested at the scene and is also receiving medical treatment.
Reed fled the scene on foot, crossing Bayshore Boulevard and moving through a nearby Chevron station parking lot before heading east on Jerrold Avenue. At approximately 12:15 a.m. on June 1, police received a call that a suspect matching his description was inside the gate of the Bayshore Navigation Center. Officers arrested Reed at that location. Upon his arrest, officers seized two firearms: a .40 caliber Glock 23 handgun and a 9mm privately manufactured handgun with no serial number.
Reed faces four counts of attempted murder, assault with a firearm upon a police officer, resisting an executive officer with force or violence, reckless evading, being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, and conspiracy. Jail records indicate he is held without bail, with a court appearance scheduled for June 11. Dolgorsuren faces four counts of attempted murder, assault with a firearm on a police officer, resisting an executive officer with force or violence, conspiracy, and shooting from a motor vehicle.
“In the San Francisco Police Department, we recognize that our sworn duty as law enforcement officers is to honor and respect the sanctity of human life. We also know that as police officers, we are sometimes required to use force, including deadly force, in the performance of our duties,” said Police Chief Derrick Lew at the June 10 briefing. The investigation is ongoing and is being conducted jointly by the SFPD Investigative Services Division, the SFPD Internal Affairs Division, the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office, and the Department of Police Accountability.
