San Francisco police arrested two Stockton residents on Saturday in connection with a shooting that killed one person and wounded three others in the Tenderloin neighborhood in September, officials said Thursday.

Darrick Devereaux, 41, was booked into county jail on suspicion of murder and attempted murder, and Linda Jimenez, 22, was booked on suspicion of being an accessory to a crime and multiple drug-related charges.

City prosecutors later charged Devereaux with murder, three counts of attempted murder and three counts of assault with a semiautomatic gun. He pleaded not guilty at his initial court appearance.

Investigators say the two were involved in a shooting that killed 44-year-old Shunsie Ellis, a San Francisco resident, at about 1 a.m. on Sept. 29 at Ellis and Jones streets. A 49-year-old woman and two men, ages 53 and 59, suffered minor foot and leg injuries from the gunfire.

Details of what led to the shooting are still uncertain. But investigators reported that they recovered three semiautomatic firearms, one assault weapon and almost a quarter pound of drugs at locations in Stockton shortly after they took Devereaux and Jimenez into custody early Saturday in the Tenderloin, just blocks away from where the shooting took place.

Devereaux is being held on $5 million bail and is expected to make his next court appearance March 23. Jimenez’s status was not immediately available.
