A woman was shot in the leg early Monday in the Mission District of San Francisco when she refused to turn over her wallet and cell phone to a robber who jumped out of car and accosted her and two friends, police said.

The shooting occurred just before 1 a.m. in the 200 block of Capp Street, police said.

The wounded 25-year-old woman was taken to a hospital and treated for non-life-threatening injuries, police said.

She and two friends, both 30 years old, told police they were walking on Capp Street when a car pulled up and the gunman got out. The armed robber ordered them fork over their valuables.

When the younger victim refused, a brief struggle occurred, police said. The mugger shot her in the leg and snatched her belongings from her hands. He got back into the getaway car, driven by an accomplice, and fled, police said.

No arrests were made and no detailed descriptions of the robbers were provided by police.
