Richmond SF is reporting that on Thursday afternoon, someone sawed off a portion of the much-needed handrail on 48th Avenue at Balboa. Several years ago a truck rolled downhill and wiped out the handrail. It was not immediately replaced, which was especially challenging for older residents who use that stretch of stairs. After an elderly woman fell and injured herself, neighbor Gabriel Lampert rallied to get the handrail replaced. DPW eventually did. No word yet on how or when it'll be fixed. [Richmond SF]
