Two nudists, Pete Sferra of San Jose and Lloyd Fishback of San Francisco, became unexpected heroes in the Castro area of San Francisco last week.
As they strolled through the neighborhood on July 2, the naked duo spotted a “crazy kind of pirate guy” wielding a blowtorch and threatening a tourist on the street.
According to reports, a video captured the moment when a bystander managed to grab the blowtorch just before the attacker attempted to assault the tourist.

Petros Fanourgiakis, owner of Aegean Delights, confirmed that the attacker had threatened to burn the tourist’s face before the heroic intervention by Sferra and Fishback.

This may be the most San Francisco thing I’ve ever seen.
The incident reportedly happened in the Castro district, a “gay-friendly neighborhood.”

Describing the incident, Sferra stated, “My buddy Lloyd is a quiet, respectful guy. But he didn’t waste any time and nailed the guy with a right hook.” Fishback then followed up with an additional smack to the attacker’s face, ultimately causing him to retreat.
While emphasizing Fishback’s heroism, Sferra mentioned that he and others at the scene promptly called the police. The suspect, identified as 38-year-old Zero Triball, was arrested and is now facing charges of assault with a deadly weapon.
Business owners in the Castro revealed that Triball has a history of causing disturbances in the neighborhood, with reports of erratic and violent behavior.
Terry Asten Bennett, president of the Castro Merchants Association, expressed concerns over Triball’s disruptive presence, citing past incidents of aggression towards local businesses. Similarly, Brandon Stanton of the Castro Country Club shared an unsettling encounter with Triball, highlighting the need for community safety.
Supervisor Rafael Mandelman, representing the Castro district, expressed frustration over the ongoing threat posed by Triball. Mandelman advocated for increased conservatorship measures to address individuals like Triball who pose a risk to public safety.
“In my view, he’s a guy who’ll continue committing medium violent crimes… I don’t think he should be left to manage his own life. He should be in a conservatorship.” – Rafael Mandelman

Ah, the joys of allowing anything to pass for ‘legal’
Some guys have real balls.
And some like to show them off in public.
Just another day in San Franfreakshow.
Ace and Gary to the rescue.
blowtorch the whole city
At one point one of the nudists straddled the assailants neck in an effort to pin. Him down.
Other than the fact that no one wants to see your ding dong, being nude means you have no protection for your skin when you crash into the street. It’s great that the guy did a good deed, but I have zero sympathy if it caused him to bleed.
blowtorch them all
Sodom and Gomorrah never got this bad…!
Honestly and truly, I would not live in San Fran even if I owned the entire city.
If I owned it I WOULD BULLDOZE IT
The most popular guy in the nudist camp is the one who can carry two cups of coffee and half a dozen donuts at the same time.
