Victims in mass shooting at UPS facility in SF file lawsuits - SFFGate
Despite there being metal detectors and security guards at a San Francisco UPS facility, an armed employee easily walked into the building, killing three co-workers and wounding two others in June — a shooting that should have been prevented, attorneys for the victims and their families said.
Relatives of two of the slain drivers, two wounded employees and 28 survivors on Tuesday sued United Parcel Service, Allied Universal Security Services, and the owner of the building on 16th Street and San Bruno Avenue on Potrero Hill.
“This was entirely preventable,” said J. Kevin Morrison, an attorney representing the plaintiffs. “If Allied and UPS had done their jobs that day, we wouldn’t be here.”
