Robert Gene III Lewis, 32, was shot and killed on June 14, 2016, in San Francisco’s Bayview neighborhood. Officers responding to reports of shots fired found Lewis with gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The investigation has been hampered by a lack of witnesses and reluctance among bystanders to come forward. The San Francisco Police Department continues to appeal for information, and the Mayor’s Office has offered financial rewards of $50,000 to $250,000 for tips that lead to arrests and prosecutions in cold homicide cases. The killing of Lewis was one of several homicides that year highlighting ongoing violence in neighborhoods like Bayview.
