SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- An 84-year old man is dead after a
horrific daytime attack in San Francisco's Anza Vista
neighborhood. ABC7 News obtained video of the incident that may
be disturbing to some viewers.

San Francisco police say their suspect Antoine Watson, 19,
attacked the senior along Anza Vista and Fortuna Avenues
Thursday morning. It's not clear Watson's motivation.

Officers discovered an 84-year-old man lying on the sidewalk,
rendered aid and summoned medics to transport the victim to a
hospital for life-threatening injuries.

The victim was taken to the hospital for life-threatening
injuries and passed away Saturday.

The initial investigation concluded that a male suspect ran from
across the street to push the victim, causing him to fall to the
pavement, police said. The suspect then fled with a female
associate.

Watson was arrested for elder abuse causing great bodily injury
and assault with a deadly weapon and booked on one count of
murder. A woman named Maylasia Goo, 20, was also later arrested
and booked for one count of accessory after the fact. The two
suspects are both from Daly City and officers from the SFPD
Tactical Unit and the SFPD Homicide Detail served a search
warrant on the 500 block of Lisbon Street in Daly City, where
Watson and Goo were taken into custody, police said.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call the
SFPD 24-hour tip line at [phone] or Text a Tip to TIP411
and begin the text message with SFPD.

SAN FRANCISCO -- A 70-year-old woman is speaking from her
bedside after being beaten brutally and even kicked in the head
by multiple attackers, in broad daylight in San Francisco.

Mrs. Zheng's mother, who requested we refer to her only as Mrs.
Ren, has spent the past two years hiding inside from COVID.

Until Sunday.

Through an interpreter, Mrs. Ren said, "Yesterday was one of the
first days for a long time she went out and this is what
happened."

Mrs. Ren now hides inside for another reason. She is covered in
blankets and bed-ridden from the extreme pain she suffered when
approached by four juveniles Sunday evening who asked her what
time it was.

She says she said "5-o'clock" and then proceeded to show the
suspects her watch, since she does not speak any English and was
not sure if they understood her.

"They search my body and I quickly realize they're up to no
good," she said, wincing.

Mrs. Ren said that's when the suspects realized she had an
iPhone 7.

Video the housing complex provided to SFPD to be used in the
investigation shows the suspects follow Mrs. Ren into the
elevator when she refuses to give up the phone. Mrs. Ren makes a
hand gesture indicating how she tried to get the elevator doors
to close.

"They got really mad and pulled me down."

Already on the ground, Mrs. Ren is kicked squarely in the face.

"They used their fist to hit my head multiple times and then
they pulled me down and kept kicking me."

The horror doesn't end there. When Mrs. Ren tries to hide in the
hallway, and is unable to close the door - the suspects return
again. Not to steal her watch or earrings, but her keys and to
take turns assaulting the terrified senior.

Her daughter begins to sob. "I never expected this to happen to
us, even though we saw a lot of reporting from our station in
particular you, Miss Lim," said Mrs. Zeng.

While both Mrs. Ren and her daughter can't sleep because of the
trauma, they without hesitation wanted to speak out. For a
purpose.

"I want this story to come out so people know and so for other
people to be aware to be safe."

SFPD said their Community Engagement Division is working with
the family and offering them resources to recover and heal.
Those with information about the case are asked to call the SFPD
tip line at 415-575-4444 which allows reporting parties to
remain anonymous.
