NINETEEN YEAR OLD VAL HERNANDEZ IS RECOVERING AFTER THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW MEXICO STUDENT WAS VIOLENTLY ATTACKED AND ROBBED IN NOB HILL LAST WEEKEND. SHE HAD TO SPEND SOME TIME IN THE HOSPITAL AND THE ATTACKER IS STILL ON THE RUN AFTER HITTING HERNANDEZ IN THE FACE WITH A GUN.
HERNANDEZ OFTEN GOES TO NOB HILL AND NEVER EXPECTED TO END UP INJURED. SHE WAS ATTACKED WHEN SHE WALKED ALONE TO HER CAR AT BRYN MAWR AND SILVER. SHE SAYS SHE NEVER EVEN SAW THE PERSON WHO JUMPED HER UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE.
THE MAN DEMANDED HER PURSE AFTER SHE GOT INTO HER CAR AND FELT GLASS OVER OVER HER. SHE DID NOT GIVE HIM HER PURSE.
