Onlookers watched in horror Sunday when a woman was attacked and robbed in broad daylight before being dragged down a street in San Francisco's Nob Hill neighbourhood.
3 ppl approached from behind and one grabbed her handbag. Clarisse didn’t let go. 1 suspect punched her in the face 3 times.

She struggles & hangs on to the getaway car as it’s driving away. She eventually fell into the street where bystanders help

As Dion Lim reports, Clarisse was ambushed by three people. One attempted to grab her purse, and when she stood her ground, another punched her repeatedly in the face.
Clarisse hung on to her bag even when the suspects got in their car and started driving. She can be seen hanging out the driver's side window as the car moves down the street. Upon reaching the intersection, the driver makes a sudden right turn, flinging Clarisse into the street. The suspects then drove off.
...but not in a way that’s criminal.”

She credits faith in God for getting her thru this. Now she wants to make sure the proper justice is served.
She doesn’t know if her race played a role. Her friend thinks so

Despite sustaining numerous injuries, Clarisse is staying strong. She says she "credits faith in God for getting her through this". A friend, who was also injured in the altercation "believes the crime could be" motivated by hate, but Clarisse is skeptical, ABC 7 News reports.
Clarisse has one message for her assailants. "Know that you're loved, know people are there to help you. I know it's hard now but we need to get back and have people in work and school so they are productively occupied and don't feel like they need to do things."
