SFPD looking for suspect after man suffers 'skull fractures' from attack in Castro

A brutal attack outside the Castro Theatre in San Francisco on Sunday night left a man with severe skull fractures, prompting authorities to seek public assistance in identifying the suspect. Witnesses reported seeing the victim being viciously beaten, with one bystander describing the scene as chaotic, with blood everywhere.

Video footage obtained by the victim’s partner shows the attacker repeatedly striking the victim in the head during the assault. The victim, who was working at a nearby bar earlier that evening, had reportedly faced confrontations with rowdy patrons, one of whom bit his finger during an altercation.

Following the attack, the victim is currently in recovery and requires further medical attention from specialists. Business owners in the Castro area have expressed their outrage over the incident, highlighting the growing fears among employees who feel unsafe leaving work after dark.

Many community members believe their calls for increased safety measures have gone unheard by local leaders. Residents assert that the area has become a target for those looking to commit violent acts without consequence.

As of now, police have made no arrests related to the incident and are continuing their investigation while urging anyone with information to come forward. The rising concerns about safety in the Castro District have sparked a broader discussion on the need for better protection and support from local authorities.
