Patrick Elliott & his family were on a CA road trip & visited Fishermanโ€™s Wharf Monday
โ €
(1/5) #StopAAPIHate Image
Documents I obtained show Carlos Claros approached the family with 2 associates & showed a gun & attempted to take cell phones
โ €
Patrick said Claros called them โ€œyou Asiansโ€ and spit on one relative.

Another family member recorded what happened

#StopAsianHate
(2/5)
I discovered Claros has an extensive criminal history incl. drug & stolen car possession last year & involvement in strong-armed robbery spree in late 2019 spanning multiple neighborhoods.

He was on probation during the Fishermanโ€™s Wharf incident

(3/5) #StopAsianHate Image
After inquiring w/the DAโ€™s office why Claros was on probation at the time of the Fishermanโ€™s Wharf incident & words for the victimsโ€” Boudinโ€™s spokesperson said in part they could not provide many details because of the pending case.

(4/5) #StopAAPIHate ImageImage
SFPD responded quickly & apprehended Claros at Aquatic Park. Family says saw Claros drop gun under a car

Patrick was also disappointed no witnesses yelled for help during the ordeal.

โ€œItโ€™s embarrassing to our society nobody will help anymore.โ€

#AAPI (5/5) Full story shortly. Image

The senior tried to escape but succumbed to her injuries. Nobody saw her until about an hour later.

โ€œI want ppl to know my aunt was very brave & she did what she could try & surviveโ€ says her niece.

According to fam Ms. Hu & Esparza had never spoken b/c of language barrier. Image
Ms. Huโ€™s son says he wants to tell his story b/c he worries the suspect in the case will be released & doesnโ€™t want his mother to โ€œdie for nothingโ€.

Neice Shan says her murder shouldnโ€™t just be a # but a โ€œbe a reminder we have severe problems in our society in #sanfrancisco โ€œ

This 68-year old jewelry shop owner was pistol-whipped & hit in the head w/a hammer 9/15 in DE.

Son Steve told me he wants to spread awareness b/c โ€œIโ€™m thinking ab my familyโ€™s safety & safety of Korean biz owners.โ€

He spoke w/@nydia_han & @6abc covering ๐Ÿงตโฌ‡๏ธ #StopAAPIHate
(2/3) Steve est. the jewelry taken was valued at around $100K.

Wilmington PD say they arrested 39-y/o Calvin Ushery who is now in custody on a $130K cash-only bail.

Steve added dad spent multiple nights in the ICU for brain/head trauma & has delayed speech & canโ€™t walk.
Note: the rest of the vid is too graphic & triggering for Steveโ€™s family. It shows the suspect smashing & stealing for 20 mins.

Steve set up a @gofundme to pay for med bills & to help dad retire. Excess funds will go to nonprofits fighting #stopaapihate bit.ly/3dKHGLb

Rene Colorado Ex. Dir of @tl_merchants says ambassadors (who now wear bulletproof vests aft getting a gun pulled on them) patrol daily & have been successful in deterring crime 9-6.

But crooks have figured out they can break in b4 or after they leave for the day #SanFrancisco
Renee says โ€œthe sense in the community is that the Asian community is an easy targetโ€ฆur not going to get hurt ur not going to get caught & there are no consequences. Itโ€™s been kind of lk a free for all so weโ€™re on edge, the community has been on edge for months.โ€ #StopAAPIHate

1 suspect asks her for the time. She shows her โŒš๏ธ b/c she doesnโ€™t speak Engl. She realizes the group is โ€œup to no goodโ€ so she runs into the elevator.

The susps follow her & search her. They find an iPhone7. When Mrs. Ren refuses to give it up, sheโ€™s assaulted. #StopAsianHate
When the 4 take her phone & leave Mrs. Ren tries to hide in a nearby hallway.

But the susps come back AGAIN & take her keys. They do not touch her earrings or watch. She has no wallet

The 4 appear to take turns attacking her. She couldnโ€™t get out of bed today. #StopAAPIHate

๐—ช๐—”๐—ฅ๐—ก๐—œ๐—ก๐—š โš ๏ธ this video provided to me by Kon โ€œPatrickโ€ Fungโ€™s family is stunning & disturbing.

2 suspects approach 52-y/o Fong & demand he get out. When he doesnโ€™t he is shot & killed.

The whole thing took less than 5 secs Sunday AM.

(Thread โฌ‡๏ธ) #StopAAPIHate #Oakland
Patrick drove for Uber. โ€œItโ€™s b/c of his job, his hard work that he got killed.โ€

This crime happened close to Little Saigon which has been hit hard by crime & violence.

โ€œWhy us? We are hard workingโ€ฆwhy are we being targeted over and over again?โ€ said Judy. #StopAAPIHate
This family is demanding changes. Fungโ€™s brother Ivan says:

โ€œThereโ€™s far too much gun violence. If the gvt can put 2gether restrictions on gun control itโ€™ll help our society.โ€

This 90-year old w/dementia was home w/2 grandsons when men jumped over a fence & entered the sunroom in an attempted home invasion.

This is 1 of 5 sim incidents Iโ€™ve reported on in 2 wks in S. San Jose.

โ€œI felt like I failed to secure the home.โ€ Says 1 grandson. Thread โฌ‡๏ธ
The crooks left the crowbar theyโ€™re holding in the backyard. Nobody was hurt in this incident.

The same day tho an 83-y/o grandpa was not so lucky. He was at home during a home invasion robbery & hit on the head & taken to the hospital.

Just yesterday 2 men (at least 1 dressed like a mail carrier) invaded the home of a couple in their 60โ€™s.

Their daughter said the men pistol-whipped her mom twice & held dad against his will.

You can see one man pull out a long object f/his bag. abc7ne.ws/3MS0e7K
