Man who died in police fight wanted for beating 97-year-old

At the time, Raiyawa was wanted for the fatal beating of an elderly man who had been in his care, though it is not clear from reports if police knew that when they arrested him.

Solomon Cohen, 96, died at 9:12 p.m. Thursday night. “Another was punched multiple times by the suspect”, San Francisco Police Sgt. Someone at the residence in the 13000 block of Dupont Road called for an ambulance around 5 a.m. regarding a reported fall victim, Basurto said.

Basurto stated that police believed that Cohen was beaten, as his injuries appeared to be caused by repeated blows with an unknown object.

The victim suffered serious head injuries and was taken to a hospital. Raiyawa, who lived on the property, is 6 feet tall with a large build, Basurto said.

Police say that Thursday morning at approximately 5:30 a.m. SFPD officers responded to a call regarding a vehicle collision which occurred on Richardson Drive at Francisco Street. The second officer was treated for an injury to her hand and both officers have since been released from the hospital.

Suhr said immediately after the crash, the driver of the rear-ended vehicle got out of his vehicle to discuss the crash with the other driver.

While en route to the scene, officers learned that a driver had rear-ended another driver.

The driver of the BMW approached Raiyawa after the collision, and heard him speaking incoherently.

The second driver backed away from him, frightened. The rear driver then exited the vehicle and started going after the forward driver, Suhr said.

Raiyawa began walking toward Lombard and Pierce Streets when two female officers arrived on the scene.

The suspect then attempted to enter an IHOP located at the intersection via an exit-only door. The cause of his death has not been determined, police said.

Raiyawa tried to flee into a nearby IHOP, but none of the employees would let him in as he pounded on the door. Officers, and later paramedics, gave him first aid and CPR, but he was pronounced dead at the scene, according to the news outlet.

Prince Tenefrancia, a server at the IHOP restaurant at 2299 Lombard St., said that he saw emergency responders “trying to do CPR for a while”. Police say the confrontation between the suspect and officers was so violent that it knocked over a section of cyclone construction fencing surrounding a dirt lot. The death is being investigated by the police department’s homicide detail and its internal affairs unit, along with the city’s District Attorney’s Office and Medical Examiner’s Office.
