SAN FRANCISCO (BCN) - The San Francisco man who died after being shot while in a crowded South of Market nightclub early Sunday has been identified as Hao Tri Tu, 29, according to an investigator with the San Francisco Medical Examiner's office.

Police found Tu on the lower level of the nightclub 1015 Folsom, near Sixth Street, after responding around 3:30 a.m. to reports of a shooting, Sgt. Neville Gittens said.

Tu was pronounced dead at the scene at 4 a.m.

Nightclub patrons told police they heard two to three shots. A second man, who was shot in the left elbow, was taken to San Francisco General Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, Gittens said.

The club was "very crowded" when the shooting took place, he said.

Police ask that anyone with more information regarding the shooting contact the Police Department at (415) 575-4444.
