The alleged shooter fled the scene, and the case was handed to the Assault Unit where detectives worked over recent weeks to identify the suspect.
With help from the Covert Response Unit, investigators moved last week to take Overstreet into custody in Colma. Police said a search of his vehicle and home revealed a loaded, privately-made gun, with multiple rounds of ammo and a compensator.
