'She wanted more of the guy. The police were holding her back': Asian woman, 76, beats attacker, 39, with a stick and sends him to hospital after he punched her in the face in San Francisco

An elderly Asian woman fought back against a man who randomly attacked her in San Francisco and sent him to hospital covered in blood on a gurney.

Xiao Zhen Xie, 76, told San Francisco's KPIX 5 that she was standing at a crossing on Market Street on Wednesday when a 39-year-old man punched her in the face.

Xie said she found a nearby stick to defend herself and started pummelling him.

While Xie suffered eye injuries, the unidentified man was taken away on a stretcher with his face covered in cuts.

Xie then tried to go for her attacker again as he was being wheeled to an ambulance, and had to be restrained by police.

She points the wooden plank towards him while yelling: 'You bum, why did you bully me?' and 'He hit me, he hit me!' in Cantonese.

The incident comes amid a surge in hate crimes targeting Asian Americans and Asians living in the United States.

Kind of funny there Dancer.
Lately I have seen adds for various defense walking sticks and have been seeing many more folks with them.
When In the Mountains I can understand a walking stick but this being Florida there are no hills.
Just lot of folks that could use a good whack with a walking stick.

The “stick” looks like somebody wanted to cut a sword outline out of drywall.

I love this story. Good for her.

I don’t love this FTA:

The incident comes amid a surge in hate crimes targeting Asian Americans and Asians living in the United States.

There is no surge. The DS is planning something.

OK, who to blame this attack on? Standing by for the media response.............still waiting.......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“On Wednesday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki echoed this, saying that there was ‘no question’ that ‘damaging rhetoric’ from the Trump administration had resulted in ‘perceptions of the Asian-American community that are inaccurate, unfair [and] has elevated threats against Asian Americans.’

‘That’s why we’re seeing that around the country,’ she said, referring to the increasing number of reported hate crimes involving Asian Americans.”

Too bad she didn’t have a sword cane. Imagine.

Hi RummyChick, If she speaks Cantonese, I would say she’s Chinese
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That’s actually arguable even when figuring that Hong Kong and Macau are ‘part of China’. Cantonese is also very big in Cambodia, Singapore and parts of Viet Nam.

RE: when a 39-year-old man punched her in the face.

Why do they never identify the perp’s ethnicity?

I dont know what country she is from but if you come from mainland China and you are in your 70s you have been through some stuff!

If she is speaking Cantonese then she’s probably from Hong Kong.

I’m not so sure about that. I still wonder if he’s one of SF’s growing homeless army.
