OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
Peter Francis Hodge Jr., a former Connecticut police dispatcher, was involved in a series of hit-and-run incidents in San Francisco's Union Square area. He allegedly drove onto sidewalks, striking two pedestrians—a woman and a girl—causing non-life-threatening injuries. Shortly thereafter, he struck a bicyclist, who managed to escape without serious harm. Hours later, police located Hodge near the Dior store on Post Street. During the confrontation, Hodge, dressed in his security uniform, ignored commands and eventually raised a handgun, prompting six officers to open fire, resulting in his death. A firearm was recovered at the scene. The San Francisco Police Department is conducting an internal investigation into the incident.
