Family shot in car

At 7:25 pm Friday, a man with an assault rifle approached a parked car near the housing projects on Turner Terrace in Potrero Hill, and fired several shots inside, killing a 2-year-old boy and his 22 year old father.

Police believe the victims were targeted, and CBS 5 Eyewitness News reported that the murder suspect is Joseph Stevens (age 22) and are asking for the public's help in locating him.

This quote from a Chronicle article about the incident struck me as a rather insightful observation:
