A San Francisco police officer responding to a call about a man making threats to people in Chinatown was attacked by the suspect. Surveillance video showed the female officer, who is of Asian descent, approached Gerardo Contreras on May 28, 2021. The 33-year-old man shoved the policewoman while she was putting on plastic gloves before patting him down and then wrestled with her on the ground. Contreras was later arrested on assault and hate crime charges, authorities said.
