San Francisco’s Democrat Mayor Daniel Lurie calmly walked away as his security team was violently attacked on the street in the Tenderloin District on Thursday evening.
One San Francisco officer assigned to Lurie’s security detail was bleeding from his head after he was bodyslammed.
Lurie was not injured.
According to Mission Local, Lurie “hopped out” of his SUV to confront the three people who were standing in the street and blocking his vehicle.
The officer instructed the men to move out of the street when one of the men came at him.
The officer tried to fend off the attacker and grabbed his arm. The suspect slammed the officer to the ground.
Two suspects were arrested.
Mission Local reported:
Mayor Daniel Lurie’s police security detail was attacked at the edge of the Tenderloin on Thursday evening just before 6 p.m., according to witnesses and a video obtained by Mission Local.
The mayor was unharmed. One unidentified San Francisco police officer, who was part of Lurie’s security team and was in the black SUV used to ferry Lurie around alongside the mayor and his driver, was left bleeding from the back of his head.
He panted as he spoke to Mission Local and gave a statement to fellow police officers who responded to the scene.
The officer said that three people blocked the car shortly prior to the attack, and that Lurie “hopped out” to ask them to move. They began to “comply,” the officer told his fellow cops, but, at some point, one man began “talking gibberish.”
The officer then intervened and asked the man to move out of the way. The man did at first, but then came at him, he told officers.
The officer held onto the man’s upper body and then “fell back” with the man on top of him, and hit his head on the pavement as he fell.
