San Francisco Man Faces Attempted Murder Charge in Chinatown Stabbing

Jian Feng Huang faces charges including using a deadly weapon after stabbing a man in broad daylight in Chinatown; victim remains hospitalized following multiple surgeries.

  • San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said on March 9, 2026, that Jian Feng Huang faces attempted murder charges for the March 5 stabbing in San Francisco's Chinatown near Stockton and Sacramento streets, and the victim remains hospitalized.
  • Investigators said there is no indication Jian Feng Huang and the victim knew each other, and court reports note Huang's prior Bay Area arrests and his father, Chu Wen Huang, as a Chinatown community figure.
  • Surveillance footage shows a black-hoodie attacker stabbing Guohua Wu in the lower back, police found a kitchen knife in a plastic bag and arrested a man on Powell Street.
  • A judge ordered Jian Feng Huang to remain in custody without bail, signed a restraining order for the victim, set his arraignment for Tuesday, and scheduled a mental health evaluation in two to three weeks while Deputy Public Defender Tatiana Howard emphasized due process.
  • Amid debate over bystander response, shopkeepers and bystanders provided first aid, called 911, and Rawnie Chan, manager of Flags International Services, said, 'We bring the ice and the towels to stop bleeding' while recalling initial fear but stating, 'Chinatown is safe and steady'.
