San Francisco Police Arrest Geary Boulevard Assault Suspect 22-116
On August 10, 2022, at approximately 11:52 a.m., San Francisco Police Officers assigned to Richmond Station responded to the area of 26th Ave and Geary Blvd on a report of a battery that just occurred. Upon arrival, officers met with a 65-year-old female victim who told officers that she was walking on Geary Boulevard near 26th Avenue when an unknown male suspect walked in front of her and punched her several times. The victim said that the assault was unprovoked, and she suffered non-life-threatening injuries as a result. Following the attack, the suspect fled the scene.
Investigators obtained video of the suspect who was later positively identified as 35-year-old Terence Chrisman of San Francisco. On Monday, August 22, 2022, a police officer assigned to Central Station was on the 800 block of Bryant Street when he spotted Chrisman and took him into custody without incident. Chrisman was booked at San Francisco County Jail on two charges of assault likely to cause great bodily injury (245(a)(4) PC), elder abuse (368(b)(1) PC), and new felony arrest while out of custody on pending felony (12022.1 PC).
Investigators believe a second victim was attacked by Chrisman just prior to the attack on the 65-year-old victim. Investigators are asking that if you have any information about this incident, please contact the SFPD.
