Cash App founder Bob Lee reportedly staggered through the streets of San Francisco after he was stabbed twice in the chest early Tuesday, pleading for help that arrived too late.
reportedly staggered through the streets of San Francisco after he was stabbed twice in the chest early Tuesday, pleading for help that arrived too late. The 43-year-old was pronounced dead shortly thereafter, leaving two children behind.—which obtained records and surveillance video from the surrounding area—Lee approached a white Camry after the stabbing and lifted his shirt, “as if to show the driver his wound and ask for help.” Instead, the car drove away, and Lee dropped to the ground.
Ajit Varma, Lee’s friend for nearly two decades, recalled him as “so smart and so caring,” adding that “he always put his friends first.” Tommy Sowers, a tech company founder who worked with Lee and Cash App during his failed 2009 congressional bid, echoed those sentiments, saying Lee was an incredibly driven, talented programmer, despite being largely self-taught.
He added that Lee was never violent or confrontational, and he couldn’t imagine him doing anything to provoke the deadly attack. In a statement on Wednesday, San Francisco Police Chief William Scott said, “I want to assure everyone that our investigators are working tirelessly to make an arrest and bring justice to Mr. Lee and his loved ones, just as we try to do on every homicide that occurs in our city.” He declined to offer additional details about the stabbing, since the investigation is still in its “early stages,” but he urged anyone with knowledge of the incident to contact the department’s tip line.
