A 22-year-old Twitter employee has died after being shot in San Francisco's Mission District, the city's office of the chief medical examiner confirmed to Business Insider.

The Twitter employee, Courtney Brousseau, was taken to the Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center on Friday after he was shot while picking up take-out. He died on Monday night, the hospital told Business Insider. Brousseau had recently graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, and had started working at Twitter in September as a product manager.

The incident was first reported by $4.

A $4 Friday night from $4 shows the 22-year-old posing in front of Dolores Park with a burrito in hand, with the caption: "I just ate a delicious burrito in Dolores park and for a brief moment everything felt okay."

City authorities $4 that 50 to 60 shots were fired Friday night at an intersection five blocks from Mission Dolores Park. The shooting left Brousseau critically wounded and an 18-year-old man injured.

No arrests have been made yet in connection with the shooting, police told the Chronicle. Two men were seen getting out of a vehicle before opening fire, and driving away from the scene, the authorities told KTVU.

Twitter did not respond immediately to Business Insider's request for comment. In $4 on Monday night, chief marketing officer Leslie Berland wrote that the company was "heartbroken."

"Today we lost a beloved Tweep, and we're collectively heartbroken" Berland said on Twitter. "I've spent a lot of time on Courtney's timeline to get to know him better. What I discovered is he was the best of us."
