San Francisco public safety meeting descends into chaos as woman throws BRICK at Mayor London Breed who vows to crack down on open-air drug market and city will finally allow cops to arrest people shooting up in broad daylight

A San Francisco public safety meeting descended into chaos on Tuesday after a woman threw a brick at Mayor London Breed and other city lawmakers.

The Mayor was hosting a rare open-air hearing at United Nations Plaza to discuss the city's drug crisis before it had to be cut short following shouting and heckling from residents.

But when city officials were preparing to leave, a woman threw a brick towards Breed's podium and it struck a high school student who was presenting flags for the meeting.

San Francisco police arrested the suspect, later identified as 26-year-old Elysia Katet, and she was booked at San Francisco County Jail for child endangerment and assault with a deadly weapon.

It comes as Mayor Breed vowed to crack down on the city's open-air drug market and police will now be able to arrest people shooting up in broad daylight.

More than 70,000 residents have fled San Francisco since the start of the pandemic and moved to other cities within the US, according to Census data. The city's high cost of living combined with a declining quality of life with a drugs crisis, high crime rates and soaring homelessness, is driving many residents to consider a move.

Thank goodness it wasn't a YTONG block!

Awesome for the po-po (and justifying their Paychecks), and perhaps more awesome for the actual citizens of the People's Democratic "Republic" of SanFranFeces !

Arrests are meaningless without actual charges by the DA and court system and punishment/incarceration for the guilty.

Shuffle the deck chairs and try and placate your angry constituents.

Business as usual in Kakafornia.

Throwing a brick at a Public Safety meaning has an irony all its own.

Can’t stop it. Give them an enclosed place to shoot up. SW corner of the city near the National Guard.
