Hi Chris,
This is very disturbing to say the least, but thanks for making us aware of the situation. I'm out walking in the area of Hermosa and Marquette most mornings early so it does hit home. I'll be buying some fresh peppery spray.
I'm very sorry this happened to Natalia and I'm glad she is doing alright considering the trauma of being attacked.
Could you keep us posted as to whether this guy is apprehended? And do you have enough evidence for a conviction if he is?
I was a friend of Henri's, by the way, and I'm glad you're taking his house in hand and making it your own. Congrats on that.
Thank you,
Rebecca Keeshen
400 block Hermosa

Subject: [Neighbors] Friday November 14th Aggravated Assault at Aliso and Copper
[EXTERNAL]
Hello Nob Hill Neighbors!
My name is Chris Conard. I recently moved into the Nob Hill neighborhood with my partner Natalie in Henri's old house on Solano. We have been working over the past few months to restore
and renovate the house and so far we have felt very welcomed into the neighborhood- until Friday morning when my partner Natalie was attacked on her morning run at approx 7:06 AM on Aliso right off of Copper.
The suspect is a 5'7-5'10", young black man with a goatee. He wears camo, beanies, and rides a black bike with white trim on the front and a bike rack attached to the back. See attached
photos and videos (from Hotel Zazz cameras at Copper and Solano). He yelled at my partner "Come Suck this black C***" right before chasing her on his bike and assaulting her.
My partner sustained some severe injuries requiring 8 staples in her head, stitches, bruising, and busted lips. She is safe and ok- but traumatized by the event.
Upon further investigation, I was made aware of an incident that happened to a fellow Nob Hill neighbor on October 16th at approx 6p at Grand and Solano where the suspect threw his
skateboard at the victim's car- where two women and a toddler were inside, shattering the driver side window. The man involved in this incident appears to match the photos and videos we have from immediately before Natalie's assault. Please see attached video
of the skateboard assault on the car.
A third, possibly related event occurred just last Thursday morning on November 13th, where a man of similar description, on his bike, teased and revealed himself to another one of
our neighbors on Marquette and Hermosa.
If you have any information, or spot this man, please call the police and contact me personally- 512 296 0649. I work from home and will move mountains to identify and capture this
attacker of innocent women in the neighborhood. I will not stand idly by while our neighborhood is being attacked and terrorized. We need to find this man and remove him from the streets.
Thanks for your help in identifying and bringing this man to justice.
