The fourth day in the trial of the homeless illegal immigrant charged with killing Kate Steinle featured testimony from a government employee whose gun was stolen and used in the shooting.
Agent John Woychowski Jr. took the stand Thursday in the trial of Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, who’s charged with killing Steinle on July 1, 2015 on Pier 14 in San Francisco. Woychowski works for the Bureau of Land Management and was issued a company weapon.
On the day of the shooting, Woychowski, who was off duty, said he and his family were on their way to Montana and stopped in San Francisco for dinner. He told the jury he parked his car in what he thought was a safe location and left a black backpack, which had his loaded weapon inside, in the back seat. He said the car was locked and had an alarm and tinted windows.
When his family returned from dinner, he said his car’s windows were smashed and the backpack was gone.
