A 20-year-old male from Texas allegedly threw a bottle containing a lit cloth at the residence's metal gate. Security guards extinguished the fire, and the incident was recorded on security cameras.
The second incident took place around 1:40 AM on Sunday. Two individuals in a Honda sedan stopped in front of the residence, having passed by a few minutes prior.
According to police reports based on security camera footage and security guard testimony, a person in the passenger seat is believed to have reached out the window and fired a gun toward Lombard Street.
The license plate of the fleeing vehicle was captured, and police seized the car. Suspects Amanda Thom (25) and Muhammad Tariq Hussain (23) were arrested on suspicion of negligent discharge of a firearm.
Three guns were found during a police search of the suspects' premises. No injuries were reported in either incident.
Following Friday's incident, Altman stated that fear and anxiety regarding AI are justified, noting that society is in the midst of significant change.
OpenAI and the police did not respond to requests for comment.
