The San Francisco gallery owner who sprayed water on a homeless woman in a video that has since gone viral, amassing millions of views, has been arrested.

The San Francisco Police Department arrested Collier Gwin, the 71-year-old gallery owner, and charged him with Battery on Wednesday after he sprayed the homeless woman with a water hose after he claimed she became "belligerent" and "violent." The interaction was recorded on video and has since gone viral.

San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins issued the arrest warrant following the police department’s investigation and review of the incident, she revealed on Twitter.

"The alleged battery of an unhoused member of our community is completely unacceptable. Mr. Gwin will face appropriate consequences for his actions," she wrote.

the term "unhoused" is so dumb. They're homeless.

round here, if you spray someone with a hose, you get shot instead of arrested

The strangest part of watching an old Dirty Harry movie is realizing it’s set in San Francisco

I say we kill two birds with one stone and feed the homeless to the hungry.

What a shithole.

And that guy was doing that bum a solid by giving him a free shower.

He got what he voted for. Shop owner is a white man devil that needs to lose everything. What gives him the right to own a gallery?

Arrested for what?

Imagine being a store owner and the person that won’t get out from in front of your store leaves trash everywhere, takes a shite on the side walk in front your store, etc.

So you just have to deal with it while it runs your business off?

This bodes well for a post-Chesa Boudin San Francisco.

Walk into a Walgreens and steal hundreds of dollars worth of stuff, walk free.
Spray homeless person with water, that’s a crime.

If theft is a fine in SF what's the penalty for battery ? $100?

They've expanded it to cover people like couch surfers so they can better touch hearts with dumb emotional appeals.

Gutfeld said the other night that it's obvious that the homeless and the homed cannot exist together, and must be separated

Those photos look like some dystopian sci-fi movie set nightmare

Nope it’s just San Fransisco. What a lovely place
