San Francisco, CA – Today, San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins announced that Daronte Scott (36) was charged in connection with a shooting on Market Street in July, leaving four victims severely injured.

Mr. Scott will be arraigned this morning at the Hall of Justice. The District Attorney’s Office has filed a motion to have Mr. Scott detained pending trial without bail due to the public safety risk he poses.

Mr. Scott is charged with four counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm (PC 245(b))—all carrying additional use of a firearm (PC 12022.5(a)) and great bodily injury (PC 12022.7(a)) clauses—as well as possession of firearm by a felon (PC 29800(a)(1)), unlawful possession of a loaded firearm (PC 25850(a)), unlawful possession of a concealed firearm (PC 24500(a)(2)), and possession of ammunition (PC 30305(a)(1)).

According to court records, at approximately 12:57 AM on July 25, 2026, Mr. Scott allegedly engaged in an argument with another individual on the 900 block of Market St. When bystanders attempted to intervene to deescalate, Mr. Scott allegedly fired multiple rounds at the group, striking four victims. Injuries included wounds to their thighs, hand, leg, foot, and abdomen, and one victim suffered a broken femur.

Although charges have been filed, this remains an active investigation. Anyone with information regarding this case, is asked to call the San Francisco Police Department Tip Line at 1-415-575-4444 or Text a Tip to TIP411 and begin the text message with SFPD. You may remain anonymous.
