Human Remains Found in Burned San Bruno Home After Fatal Shooting

The coroner will identify the remains to clarify who was inside the destroyed residence.

Overview

  • Police were called around 3 p.m. Friday to the 100 block of Keefe Court and found a 31-year-old man with a gunshot wound who later died at a hospital.
  • After firefighters extinguished the blaze, investigators located human remains in the wreckage, and the county coroner will determine the identity and cause of death.
  • Police Chief Matt Lethin said the case does not appear to be random and that investigators have identified a suspect known to the residents.
  • Officials earlier said the shooter was suspected to be inside the burned house; no arrests have been announced, and police reported no ongoing threat to the public.
  • The fire decimated the structure, prompted a second-alarm response, and led PG&E to cut power because of downed lines as crews secured nearby streets.
