The San Francisco Police Department has made an arrest in the highly publicized murder of tech executive Bob Lee, founder of Cash App. The murder, which was committed on April 4, was met with calls from the Silicon Valley community to end what they describe as an era of lawlessness, homelessness, public drug abuse, and crime in San Francisco, but the suspect SFPD arrested today—a person who knew Lee personally and also worked in the tech industry—does not fit that narrative at all.
Mission Local reported that sources said the suspect was Nima Momeni, the owner of a company called ExpandIT. Lee and Momeni may have been traveling by car together on the night Lee was killed, according to Mission Local. ExpandIT and SFPD did not respond to Motherboard’s requests for comment.
