A video has gone viral after it showed a San Francisco business owner spraying an unhoused woman with a garden hose while telling her to move from the sidewalk.

The gallery was closed Tuesday, but NBC Bay Area was able to speak to him through the speaker in the door.“The whole neighborhood is a part of this situation,” he said. “The police force is a part of this situation. The city and the social services is a part of the situation. There have been repeated attempts to try to help this woman who is psychotic.”

Gwin said he’s sympathetic to her situation and has called the police and city social services multiple times when, he says, she becomes disruptive. “There’s absolutely nothing that can be done. They’ll take her to a shelter, and they will turn her out in two days,” said Gwin. “They will take her to the hospital, they will release her within a day.”Galvez, the man that posted the video, said he also knows the woman because he owns a business nearby.

"OK, that lady doesn't go inside the businesses,” he said. “She sleeps on the street, but she's very calm, yeah. I was putting quarters on the parking meter right now and she was passing by.""I can understand both parties,” he said. “I feel sorry for the tenant, I feel sorry for the lady. But the police had come out one time and he said there's nothing they can do."They said it remains an open investigation and they would not comment on any possible charges.

SF has always had homeless people, same as NYC. That doesn't give anyone the right to hose someone down, like she's a critter or something. If she is 'psychotic' he still should have called the police if he felt danger. This is not acceptable

Those conditions are threatening his livelihood. His frustration got to a boiling point. I mean…I get it. Homeless people get a financial incentive to stay homeless. You can thank GavinNewsom and his auntie SpeakerPelosi

Unhoused? Dumb.

😂 how about unjobed ffs 🤦‍♀️

No excuse for attacking anyone !! Privileged much ?!

GOOD ON HIM HAHAHAHAHA!

When our elected officials do their job and solve this problem, and keep business and residential areas, clean and passable, this kind of behavior ceases to happen. As wrong as it is to spray this person, it’s also wrong to allow this kind of lifestyle to continue.

Lol. Good job guy.
