San Francisco neighborhood wakes up to over a dozen vehicles with tires slashed

fighting crime, taking steps to clean up the streets of San Francisco. It's all top of mind for city officials and for people who call the city home. Police are rolling out a lot of new tools to get that job done and we're gonna have more on that in just a second. But imagine the inconvenience and the pure annoyance of waking up to discover a scene like this. Someone just walking down the street and slashing a whole bunch of tires are Jose Martinez reports. I'm here in the Richmond district where some residents are reacting to a vandalism incident reported last night. You see, some of the tires of those vehicles behind me were slashed in the middle of the night. Now a suspect has been arrested. Nearly two dozen people in San Francisco's Richmond district woke up Wednesday morning to find their tires slashed. A crime that longtime resident Victoria Gordon finds his random as it is disturbing. I never heard somebody. Oh yeah, I can see that one over there. No, that's terrible. Awful. She spoke with us as tow trucks were still picking up the vandalized cars near 12th and Anza. That's horrible because I live very close. I live on 14 between Gary and Anza and it's very active. If there's any good news in this story, it's that police have already made an arrest. 22 year old Azeal tourists of San Francisco was booked just hours later on 22 counts of felony vandalism. The motive for it all unclear. Another neighbor who declined to be on camera told me she found out about the incident because of the police report on her car's windshield. Victoria has lived here for more than 50 years and worries that the neighborhood is changing and not for the better. You see the people who, you know, on any boulevard who are not clean, you know, um, many times, you know, they do graffiti on the mailboxes, which I call him. I call 311. Even a quick search on Reddit shows us the level of desperation in this part of the city opposed to entitled residents of quite San Francisco neighborhood Richmond say they're traumatized by break ins and rising crime has hundreds of comments for now. Victoria says she will keep an eye on her neighbors, has a message for them. And I think, you know, just sometimes like something get dirty, you clean it up. But San Francisco is a beautiful place. And Victoria tells me she loves San Francisco, but she wants to see less crime. She's actually concerned about the future of this neighborhood.
