An elderly Asian woman has revealed how she was thrown to the ground and brutally kicked and punched by a gang outside her apartment. The Asian woman, who identified herself as Mrs Ren, was jumped on by the attackers in the corridor of her apartment building and they took turns to hit her after she tried to escape into an escalator.
The woman in her 70s claimed, speaking through an interpreter, that the gang first asked her what the time was and she responded by showing her watch with the time at 5pm as she does not speak English. Then they tried to take her iPhone which she said she refused to give over and tried to run to get to a lift in the building where the gang started to attack her.
“They got really mad and pulled me down,” Mrs Ren reportedly said. Footage shows Mrs Ren, from San Francisco, being beaten with kicks and punches in the face while she lay on the ground.
