San Francisco Police Officer Faces Firearms Charges; Operation D‑Line Uncovers Extensive Drug Cache A former San Francisco police officer is arraigned on multiple first‑degree weapons charges, while a coordinated operation by law enforcement uncovers a large quantity of narcotics and weapons across several states. The incident also involved a shooting at a post‑Super Bowl event that left a former 49ers player injured. A former San Francisco police officer, identified in court as Walker, was arraigned on Wednesday, October 14, in Monterey Park for several serious weapons violations. The charges include felony assault with a semi‑automatic firearm, possession of a firearm by a felon, possession of a concealed firearm by a felon and possession of a loaded firearm by a felon. Walker was taken to the San Francisco County Jail and is being held without bail.A judge subsequently ordered that Green, who faces lesser misdemeanor counts related to the same incident-specifically brandishing a firearm, carrying a concealed firearm and carrying a loaded firearm in public-be released from custody after the Wednesday hearing. Both men are scheduled to return to court on Monday, October 19, for a second arraignment, though neither has yet entered a plea.Operation D-Line Multi-Agency CrackdownThe crackdown, known as Operation "D‑Line," was a multi‑agency effort that spanned eight months and involved more than 50 warrants and over 250 law enforcement personnel nationwide. According to a briefing from the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD), four no‑bail arrest warrants were executed between October 7 and October 9. Those warrants targeted four suspects, including Walker and Green.In the course of the investigation, authorities seized multiple firearms and nearly 15 pounds of narcotics, as well as a large quantity of illegal drugs from several individuals. For example, a 38‑year‑old man named Davis was taken into custody at his Atlanta residence on October 7 following a warrant that led to the discovery of an illegal firearm, 820 grams of MDMA, 1,026 grams of methamphetamine, 979 grams of cocaine and 3,842 grams of fentanyl.High-Profile Arrests and Keion White ShootingMeanwhile, 36‑year‑old Washington was apprehended in Stockton, California, on a same‑day warrant and had a loaded firearm, over 120 oxycodone pills and approximately $6,691 in cash confiscated. In another high‑profile incident linked to the same investigative effort, former 49ers safety Keion White was shot in the ankle while hosting a private post‑Super Bowl party in the downstairs VIP area of the Dahlia Club in San Francisco. The injury was serious enough to require immediate surgery.According to the team's public statement, White sustained a non‑career‑threatening wound and is currently recovering at a local hospital. The incident was alleged to involve Walker, a second unnamed suspect currently facing pending charges, and Green, all of whom are accused of firing into the area. White, who has played in all five games of the 2026 NFL season, is reportedly in full recovery and has returned to normal activity.The case remains under investigation, and further updates are expected as the legal process continues.
