Pittman tells the San Francisco Chronicle (http://sfchron.cl/1mm6VT3 ) says it's unclear what started the fight, but he confirmed two victims were found near the entrance of an apartment. The third man was found nearby and taken to a local hospital with at least one gunshot wound and possible other injuries.
