David Ramon "Dave" Toschi (born July 11, 1931) is a former inspector in the San Francisco Police Department, where he served from 1952 to 1983. He is best known for his role as a chief investigator in the Zodiac Killer case, which he began work on after the murder of taxi driver Paul Stine. Shortly after he left the S.F.P.D., Dave was the Director of Security for St. Luke's Hospital in San Francisco's Mission District. Toschi is currently vice president of North Star Security Services in Daly City.〔(King, D. "Chasing Zodiac", ''San Francisco Chronicle'' )〕 He was an advisor to the producers of the 2007 film ''Zodiac''.〔(See crew section )〕 ==In popular culture== Actor Mark Ruffalo portrayed Toschi in the David Fincher film ''Zodiac''. Steve McQueen copied Toschi's distinctive style of quick-draw shoulder-holster by wearing his gun upside down for the 1968 movie ''Bullitt.'' McQueen also modeled much of his ''Bullitt'' character on Toschi.〔Graysmith, Robert. (1986). ''Zodiac'', p. 96. St. Martin's Press. ISBN 0-312-89895-9〕 Screenwriters Harry Julian Fink and Rita M. Fink also modeled Harry Callahan, the main character of ''Dirty Harry'' portrayed by Clint Eastwood, on Toschi; the film's villain, based on the Zodiac Killer, was called "The Scorpio Killer" (portrayed by Andrew J. Robinson). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dave Toschi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
