Darryl Haynes, 61, was shot and killed on May 15, 2021, in San Francisco’s Potrero Hill neighborhood. The shooting happened just after 10 a.m. near the intersection of 25th and Connecticut streets. Haynes was found with gunshot wounds, taken to a hospital, and later died there.

That morning’s violence was part of a pair of shootings: about two hours later, 54-year-old Randy Armstrong was killed and another man critically wounded. Investigators identified 32-year-old Robert Newt as the suspect in both incidents. Newt had been arrested in early April 2021 in an unrelated shooting where no one was hurt; police found a semi-automatic ghost gun at that time but the District Attorney declined to file charges for lack of evidence, and he was released. After the May 15 attacks, the SFPD named Newt the primary suspect and asked the public to report sightings, describing him as armed and dangerous.

The motive for Haynes’s killing remains unclear and the investigation was ongoing. Does anyone have information about Haynes, his routines, or what he was doing in Potrero Hill that morning?
