A young woman who has volunteered for years to keep Oakland safe, fell victim to a brazen physical attack and carjacking by multiple men.

Hernandez's family says this is the second time he's been attacked.

It happened once in 2020, and that's when the family installed cameras around his house.

The suspect ran away into the neighborhood. He's described as an unknown-race man, between 30 and 50 years old, approximately 5 feet, 10 inches tall, and weighing approximately 220 pounds.
