Yo this shit is crazy and there a fair bit more in the article.

A San Francisco man found himself blocked from entering his own apartment complex parking garage by a couple who was caught on camera and later seen what appears to be assaulting a bystander who jumped in to help.

Michael Barajas, a Berkeley graduate and community educator for a biopharmaceutical company, says he used his remote to open the garage door to the SOMA Residences where he lives on Tuesday evening after coming home from buying fruit.

A white SUV with Florida plates pulled in ahead of him and, instead of proceeding forward, stopped at the entrance of one of the building's garages and stopped Michael from going inside.

"His immediate reaction was 'hey you f**king criminal, you're not coming in here.''"
Barajas says he was clad in black and his tattoos were showing. He thinks perhaps when he leaned his head out of the window to see what was the matter, the driver and passenger, identified as William Beasley, decided he was a threat based on his appearance.

You can hear a man shouting in part of the video.

"You don't have a right to come in here!"

Beasley is heard asking Barajas where his key fob is. Despite saying he has one, the man escalates the situation.

APEX Systems, where Beasley was employed, issued a statement saying they conducted an internal review and "made the decision to terminate the employee" and that they will not "tolerate violent or racist behavior."

As for Barajas, who is satisfied with his building's response to the incident, says he is grateful for those who tried to intervene and is proud of how far he's come.

Imagine having such little of a life that you're concerned with who is following you into your apartment complex, unless they've been tailing you or immediately tailed you before the gate/arm could close.

Even if he didn't live in the apartment, he could've been running errands for someone in the complex or something.

I don't get these people
