A 22-year-old woman was arrested after her boyfriend was shot in the chest during an altercation between the two on Saturday morning, South San Francisco police said.
The pair argued in a parking lot at 111 Hickey Blvd., and then struggled over a firearm in their vehicle before the boyfriend was shot. The woman, Jocelyn Rivera Penate of South San Francisco, drove to the nearby house of a friend and called 911 to report the incident. The 34-year-old man was taken to a local trauma center for treatment of injuries police described as non-life-threatening. Rivera Penate was booked at San Mateo County Jail for domestic assault and possession of a loaded firearm.
The incident is under investigation and anyone with information is asked to contact O12fficer Vincent Meschi at (650) 877-8900.
