SF Ballet Dancer Thwarts Would-be iPhone Thief on BART

Via SF Weekly’s The Snitch, BART Diaries has learned of at least one iPhone owner who refused becoming another theft-victim:

“He hit me as hard as he could four times, and I just stood there, like dazed. I was like, you just got four free shots and you didn’t take me down. And then in a split second I decided I’m going to kill him. He unleashed the beast. I am basically 98-percent muscle, I’m a professional athlete, and all my muscle was on him. I pounced on him like a tiger.”

Moments after I Took This

Ahead of today’s U.S. District Court ruling on Prop. 8 (OVERTURNED!), SFMTA posted when and where to expect delays this evening. Throngs of San Franciscans are expected to celebrate Judge Vaughn Walker’s ruling, which overturned the ban on same-sex marriage:

  • Rail lines: F.
  • Bus routes: 6, 19, 21, 22, 24, 35, 37, 47, 49, 71, 71L.
  • Area: Upper Market, Civic Center.
  • Date: Wednesday, Aug. 4, 2010.
  • Time: 5 to 6:45 p.m.

Due to a rally, there may be delays on the F Line and the 24, 35 and 37 routes in the vicinity of Castro and Market from 5 to 6 p.m.

Due to a march beginning at 6 p.m., Muni may be subject to delays on surface lines and routes along Market Street and in the Civic Center area.

* You’re probably thinking: Expect delays all the time. But we feel now’s not the time to be cynical. That’ll probably pick up again, oh, in the morning.
