"As revelers celebrated gay pride weekend with parades across the country, festivities in San Francisco were marred after a 19-year-old man was killed and two others were shot during a street party in the Castro district," reports Michelle Ruiz. Police said Stephen Powell, 19, was fatally shot in the torso at 11:30 p.m. Saturday night during a personal dispute with another 19-year-old man, who was arrested as a suspect, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.
