San Francisco police have arrested a Bay Area man in connection with last week's stabbing death of tech titan and Cash App founder Bob Lee, according to local reports.
Lee was found dead with stab wounds in the city's upscale Rincon Hill neighborhood around 2:30 a.m. on April 4.
Surveillance video showed his harrowing final moments, as he staggered down the sidewalk, appealing to a passing driver and banging on a door for help.
He found none in either place, but was able to call 911 himself.
