Police tell me 46-y/o Stephen Miller was arrested. This is the mess he left.
Karla says โIโd like to see SF be the amazing place I know it can be. It was when I was growing upโฆhow about we donโt let someone back on the street who is extremely dangerous?โ #SanFrancisco

A number of people have asked about a GoFundMe for Karla. She & her friends did not want anything but to raise awareness.
While they donโt have answers & a solution they hope somebody in a leadership role will pay attention & make change so this stops.
This is fake jewelry thieves are handing to seniors across the Bay Area, SoCal & Sacramento area to distract them as theyโre getting robbed of their real jewelry.
This fake stuff was given to a 59-year old disabled woman in San Jose before the suspect took her gold chain. (1/4)
Many of the victims (10 known ones in San Ramon) according to @SanRamonPolice are SE Asian. Many victims donโt report to PD.
One victim according to @SantaClaraPD was a 90-year old non-Asian woman who was taken for $40,000 in jewelry!
(This vid is an 82-y/o Chinese Vic in SJ.)
San Ramon police say the perps appear to be made of people f/Eastern Europe.
They call this a slight-of-hand crime b/c the suspect hugs or approaches the victim & it takes only a few secs to undo a necklace.
Many victims like this one in SR donโt realize itโs happening. (4/5)
This is 84-year old Marc. He was at an ATM in Laurel Village yesterday when a man approached & said โgive me your money, give me your money!โ
As Marc reached for his bag to give him cash the man hit Marc 2xโs in the face w/a glass bottle.(1/3) #StopAAPIHate
Marc suffered bruises as you can seeโ along with sinus fractures. His daughter told me his head and shoulder scan showed no major damage.
Amazingly his spirits were high. He even gave me this bible & credited his big family with longevity and health. (2/3) #StopAsianHate
Marcโs daughter Ana is a nurse. She is grateful for the Good Samaritans who came to the rescue to assist her dad.
โItโs really upsettingโฆevil people lurking around. It makes us so sad, our familyโฆthat these people are preying on the innocent and the frail.โ

Itโs for anyone w/ info leading to an arrest in 23-month old Jasper Wuโs shooting death along 880.
โ
The money comes f/the Oakland Chinatown Chamber, @BurmaSuperstar & @SanFranciscoPOA Crimes Against Asians Fund #JusticeForJasper
A number of you have been asking how Jasperโs parents are doing.
I am giving them space as they make funeral plans & grieve.
A family friend says theyโre planning for a Buddhist monk to perform the last rite chanting & the funeral could be the week after next. #RIP
The familyโs friend also said mom Xiao Xiao (Cherry) did not want to accept the $200k+ GoFundMe at 1st
She was feeling guilt & didnโt know what sheโd do w/ the $ since her son was already dead
Cherryโs friend got her to accept explaining its a show of support f/the community.

Last year at least 4 people have been hit by paintballs in Bernal Heights. A 19-y/o also shot at a pregnant woman in Marin around the same time. (3/4)
