Police announced an arrest in last week’s San Francisco slaying of Bob Lee, chief product officer of crypto startup MobileCoin Inc., and the alleged killer is a fellow technology entrepreneur who knew Lee.
Nima Momeni, 38, was taken into custody Thursday in the nearby city of Emeryville and charged with murder in the stabbing of Lee, 43, on a downtown street in San Francisco in the early morning of April 4, police said. A LinkedIn profile for Momeni lists him as an IT consultant and entrepreneur.
