Jeremy & Hudson of @PainaSF finished holding a self-defense class when they spotted the robbery in progress! (1/4)

#AAPIHM
The tourist family were from Chicago & on their way to the airport. Here is their luggage, which Hudson & Jeremy managed to save.

Jeremy told me break-ins happen ALL the time & most of their staff have had their cars broken into. One 9+ times!
#AAPI
Jeremy & Hudson have been so fed up about the attacks on Asians & crime in general they started a group called Asians Are Strong which promotes unity & being proactive not passive.

Here you see staff of @PainaSF when they hear the break-in happening outside. (3/4) #AAPIHM
Thankfully nobody was hurt and the tourists got their luggage back thanks to quick-thinking staff.

When I stopped by the restaurant to learn more Jeremy said heโ€™d like to see more community groups work TOGETHER b/c that way weโ€™re all stronger (4/4) #AAPI

๐—ง๐—ฅ๐—œ๐—š๐—š๐—˜๐—ฅ ๐—ช๐—”๐—ฅ๐—ก๐—œ๐—ก๐—š: after much discussion and debate, I am choosing to show you video I obtained from sources of the two Asian senior women were stabbed along Market Street this week.

This was not an easy decision.

Here is why:

(1/5) #StopAsianHate #AAPI
There always has to be a purpose to what is shown. To show context.

In this case my team and I felt like it was important to see what happened so you understand how serious this crime isโ€” as you learn the previous criminal history of the suspect.

#StopAAPIHate #AAPIHM
(2/5)
Takeaways f/the video:

You can see how calmly the suspect approaches
โ €
There are others in the area but the women are the clear targets.
โ €
A bystander rushed to help. More came shortly after.

I spoke to one yesterday who cradled Mrs. Fong while SFPD arrived (3/5) #AAPI

The grandson of one of the two women in their 60โ€™s and 80โ€™sโ€” stabbed on Market yesterday gave me permission to share this photo.

She was stabbed in the arm and chest. I learned the other woman was stabbed in the back & has broken bones.

#StopAsianHate #AAPI Image
The grandson and his family have requested privacy during this time. I promise them I would learn as much as I could about their suspected perpetrator and his record.

More soon. (2/2)

Here is the only real @gofundme the Eng family has set up.

Grandson Andrew says he doesnโ€™t like asking for a handout but that his grandma really needs the support. I told him the community wants to help โค๏ธ bit.ly/3enyEBv

BREAKING: two Asian women stabbed on Market in SF. One has serious bleeding โ€” the other still has knife in her arm.

#StopAsianHate #StopAAPIHate
Sources tell me this happened at the 4th/Stockton intersection. Suspect not yet in custody.
A man is in custody. He appears to have a thin build and some say he lives/hangs around the area. Thatโ€™s the only suspect description I can share right now.

@KateABC7 working story tonight for @abc7newsbayarea & learned the suspect was apprehended along Eddy.

Carl as advocated tirelessly for Asian Americans as theyโ€™ve been attacked in Oakland.

He said he mustered up all his strength after being called a slur, stood up after getting hit in the back of the head & took a picture of the man he says attacked him

(2/4) #StopAAPIHate
He stuck around at the scene of 8th + Broadway and was able to ID the suspected attacker about 25 mins later. OPD was able to make an arrest.

Carl says he is going to monitor his head closely & is glad it was him who was attackedโ€” not a senior or child.

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

As soon as Ms. Lee, who is in her 50โ€™s got out of her car one man holds knocks her to the ground, holds her a at gunpoint & takes her purse.
