Christina Voyles, a senior marketing director, and her husband, Robert Hubble, moved to San Francisco in 2015 when Christina landed a job at the University of Berkeley.
Her father had worked there when she was only two years old, so it felt like “a nice full circle moment”.
But the city had changed from the one Christina cherished in fond memories of her childhood. San Francisco’s large homeless population has become a problem for all residents of the area.
Christina explains how people have learned to “kind of get on with things, and leave them alone”.
One day, as Christina was having lunch outside, enjoying the good winter weather before heading back to work, she was the victim of an unprovoked attack by a homeless man.
“He started approaching me and as he got closer and closer, I put my arm up and said ‘I’m sorry I don’t have any change,” Christina explains. “He then stared and lunged at me.”
She remembers him grabbing her by her hair and scraping the inside of her mouth, as he threw her around: “I could not get him off, and I remember thinking I had to get away from this construction cement wall that was next to us because there was a corner and I was afraid he would knock me into it.”
“I was just screaming for help as he was dragging me around,” Christina adds.
After 10 to 20 seconds, which she says “felt like forever”, two construction workers managed to pull him from her. They then held him down while someone else called the police.
“The emergency services came and there was an ambulance for him that took him away, as he claimed he was having a heart attack.

Christina probably voted for the party that allowed this madness to occur, so she needs to learn to live with it.
Sounds like the homeless guy has a good civil case for her interfering with his first amendment right to free expression, he should SUE her.
Anyone who willfully decides to live in this pig stie deserves it.
She works at Berkeley. YEP she and her ilk voted for this so they should learn to EMBRACE THE SUCK. They are getting exactly what they voted for Good and Hard!!
A neo conservative is a liberal who got mugged.
all out of GAFs
ha! ha!
is all i have for these losers
She…moved to SF…Berkeley…
That saying doesn’t apply to white women that work in education.
If she works in Berkeley, why is she living in San Francisco? Needless commute and probably can find safer places to live in the East Bay.
well then mug her again
There is a good chance you’re right.
Having grown up in the bay area, this is sad to see. Last might before I moved away I spent in San Francisco.
If she works in Berkeley, why is she living in San Francisco? Needless commute and probably can find safer places to live in the East Bay.
She moved to another state, hopefully a blue state.
