Cell phone footage captured the horrific moment a wedding photographer was wrestled to the ground and pistol-whipped by armed attackers in front of terrified newlyweds.
Video posted online shows how two men in dark Nike sweatshirts, face masks and dark sweatpants approached the unidentified photographer in broad daylight at San Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts on November 9.
It was just one of two assaults on wedding photographers at the Palace of Fine Arts that day, after a recent poll found that a majority of San Franciscans believe their city is going downhill, and a third plan to leave the city within three years.
In the video from Wednesday, armed men could be seen trying to grab the photographer's camera and gear from his camera bag — but the would-be victim manages to hold on to his belongings.
At that point, the two men start threatening the photographer with their guns, one of which appeared to have been modified for an extended clip.
The victim tries to run away, running past the shocked groom in a light colored suit with a red kerchief and his new wife, in a red dress, before he falls on the ground.
The groom seemed to try to help the man while he was down, but the armed attackers soon came back, holding him to the ground and whipping him with their gun before they ran off.

Does anybody really know what time it is
(Care) Does anybody really care
(About time) If so I can’t imagine why
The bare hands of one of the attackers was either black or dark Asian.
These people would probably blame themselves for the attacker as San Francisco is that weird
Resisting reparation collections is always a bad move.
Stay calm and carry....EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME.
Keep voting Rat, you imbeciles!
Meh. They probably voted for this. Over and over and over and over and ...
lol...i like the way you phrased that...and yes...it’s not worth your life. just let it go
they at least have the license number of the getaway car. The perps will be released on cashless bail
I hope the image of the attack is firmly pressed into their minds for the rest of their lives. I have no sympathy for liberals whatsoever.
I liked The Rock.
The victims appear to be Asian. That doesn’t mean they are liberal.
A wedding photographer can easily have $20k in cameras and lenses to steal.
I lived in the Bay Area for over 40 years, until the fall of 2018. Odds are extremely good they're liberal.
Liberals didn't care when Kate Steinle murderer got off free. Some even applauded. F' em.
Were they all in their underwear? Did the attacker shout “Where’s Nancy?”
i hear that happens a lot in San Francisco
It’s entertaining.
One was from Dallas
