On the evening of Tuesday, January 5 Sarah Vorhaus was walking her two dogs, Chloe and Colton in the Russian Hill area of San Francisco, CA when she was violently assaulted by three men. The reason for the attack quickly became clear to 30-year-old Vorhaus when one of the men demanded, “give me your dog.”
Vorhaus turned to see a man with a gun. He punched her in the face several times, snatched Chloe, and took off in a car with two other men.
“I just started screaming for help,” a distraught Vorhaus told ABC7 News Tuesday night. “Someone called 911 and the ambulance came.”
