I have waited almost a week to make this post. I have debated heavily with myself whether or not to report this publically or not. Apparently I have decided to do so. Last Friday evening, I made an appointment with an asian sp in Richmond. (who shall remain nameless) It was an apartment in central Richmond, there were two ladies. After being there about 10 minutes, showered clean, lying on the bed becoming better aquainted, suddenly the door burst open and a little asian guy about 130 lbs with a scarf over his mouth and nose bursts into the room. He was brandishing a very large, industrial size can of bear spray. He was yelling orders in unaccented english and I think cantonese or mandarin or another asian language. I have no ability to tell exactly what language. The sp was very excited, running around the room and yelling. Sheer bedlam. I was still sitting on the bed, naked, calmly trying to tell the guy to just take the money and leave, no hassels. At this point he turned to me and said, " shut the fuck up dude!", and sprayed me full in the face with a huge blast of bear spray. It went into my wide open eyes, my mouth, and my nose. He also sprayed my entire upper torso and genitals. Let me just take a moment to say that if you ever have this experience, you will understand how unbelievably immediate and debilitating and painfull this is. I was almost completely blinded and almost unable to breathe for about 15 minutes. I think at this point he robbed me and then the craziness moved out into the rest of the apartment. I managed to feel my way out of the bedroom and into the adjacent bathroom and shower. I managed to get the shower on and furiously washed my face and body over and over and over... After about 10 minutes I managed to recover a small amount of vision and stumbled back to the bedroom and got dressed. About this time my unnamed friend returned to the bedroom horribly red and burnt. The two thieves had left at this point and I tried to convince her to take a shower, but she was completely freaking out and insisted on leaving asap. The two sp's and I left the apartment and we went to my vehicle, phoned their friends, and I stayed with them until their friends arrived to retrieve them about 30 minutes later. I went home and showered half the damn night. I believe that taking an immediate shower and about 15 more later saved me from being more seriously injured. As it was, my vision was affected for several days and I had burns over about 30% of my body for several days. I managed yesterday to speak with the handler of the ladies and he told me that she required several days of hospitalization. I am still not sure why I am writing this, it might be altruism or maybe therapy, maybe both. All I know is, the girls said there were two asian guys and possibly Vietnamese. Even though they were successful, the little dude that assaulted me, ( I never saw the other), was scared shitless. I think that made him more volatile. Every one please be careful, you really DO NOT want to go through this. Sincerely, Rocko
