Neighbors of former San Francisco Fire Commissioner Don Carmignani said “no one is safe” in the city after he was brutally attacked by a transient with a metal crowbar just steps away from his family’s front door.
Carmignani was attacked a day after Cash App founder Bob Lee was stabbed to death by an unknown assailant early Tuesday morning.
Carmignani, 53, was leaving his mother’s home at about 7 p.m. in the Marina District when he was accosted by a man waving an industrial metal crowbar...
San Francisco Police later arrested Garret Doty, 24, who was booked on assault with a deadly weapon.
Joe Alioto-Veronese, a prominent attorney and friend, said Carmignani was at his mother’s home when he noticed Doty and two other transients blocking the driveway.
When Carmignani asked them to move, he was bludgeoned in the back of the head by Doty...
While overall violent crime fell 13.6% from 2019 to 2022, homicides in San Francisco rose 36.6%, from 41 to 56 in the city of 815,000, according to police statistics.
Violent crimes also saw an uptick of 7.5% over the past three years throughout San Francisco, while property crime has exploded to 20.7% over the past three years.

The corrupt liars fools and thugs at the FBI allow this type of crime reporting... where democrat hellholes ‘decriminalize’ crime by changing the standards and pleading everything down to nothing.
Democrats cities are hellholes and their crime numbers are lies.
Just be happy they didn't refer to it as a military-styled assault crowbar.
For years I’ve been telling Carmignani he should move out of CA. He should’ve listened. /s
I used to work in law enforcement. Crime statistics are manipulated almost everywhere for various reasons. One big reason is communities trying to lure big corporations to open up shop. Low crime rates are always part of that equation. But I watched my community “massage” crime stats to make it look safer in my community. The school district won state & national recognition for being a “drug free” school. Yet drugs were rampant. Their way of massaging stats was they confiscated drug from kids but never reported it to police. At one time the principal had boxes and boxes of drugs taken from kids. They just finally threw it away. Bottom line, never trust low crime stats. They are likely fake.
True. Talk with any officer, be they sheriff’s or city. They just don’t write up a lot because the great voters have chosen leniency in their fantastic ideological sacred bleeding heart beliefs.
So, even though the boys in blue and green want to do somethihng, by law they can’t.
So all those crimes normally put on the books are just papers shuffled into a file and never go to court if they’re written at all.
Sacramento and the cities are all happy, mission accomplished, they get a raise. Until of course the assaults happen to them like Bill Lee and the other guy. But the damage is done.
Do you suppose sensible crow bar control is in the offing?
I haven’t been in a few years but used to spend a lot of time there. I had noticed that there were a few people as you describe but it it must have gotten much worse. Idiots paying millions to own homes there.
Thank you. That explains a lot. Like why Uvalde school district has its own PD, and why they aren’t capable of law enforcement.
