DA Charges 37-Year-Old With Attempted Murder in San Francisco Chinatown Stabbing Caught on Video

Prosecutors say the assault was random, requesting Jian Feng Huang’s continued detention as the case proceeds.

Overview

  • District Attorney Brooke Jenkins announced attempted murder charges against Jian Feng Huang following last week’s daylight attack at a Chinatown crosswalk.
  • Huang was arraigned Monday and remains in custody as prosecutors argue he poses an extreme public-safety risk.
  • Authorities report no evidence the suspect knew the victim and say they do not believe there is an ongoing threat after the arrest.
  • Surveillance footage shows a man in a black hoodie lunging at the victim from behind near Stockton and Sacramento streets shortly after 1 p.m.
  • The victim is hospitalized and recovering after life-threatening injuries, with bystanders and nearby workers providing first aid at the scene.
