San Francisco filmmaker won't face criminal charges

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A well-regarded San Francisco filmmaker and community activist arrested in connection with a fatal shooting won't immediately face criminal charges, prosecutors said.

The district attorney's office found insufficient evidence to immediately press charges against Kevin Epps, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Tuesday (http://bit.ly/2dHyYsf ).

Polk was a registered sex offender with a history of drug abuse and prior convictions for attempted robbery and domestic battery.
