Diane Lundquist got on her bike for a ride the other day and wound up pedaling into one of those Oakland moments that are, unfortunately, too common.

“I was riding along Skyline Boulevard near the Chabot Equestrian Center around 2:30 in the afternoon when I heard this car coming up behind me,” Lundquist said of her Monday afternoon ride. “Usually, I’m worried about getting run over, but as the car passed I heard this sound and then felt something hit me in the bum.”

The car was a white Mercedes coupe.

“I’m wondering what the hell happened, and then I realized I’d been shot in the butt,” Lundquist said, most likely by a pellet gun. “Fortunately, I wasn’t going fast so I didn’t crash.”

She immediately stopped, checked herself and found the wound where she had been hit. Fortunately, it wasn’t bleeding badly.

“I’m sure it will make a lovely bruise,” she said.

She called 911 to report the attack, and the dispatcher asked if she needed medical attention. She told the dispatcher, “I don’t think so.”

“There was no slug in my bum, but there was definitely a hole,” Lundquist said.

The dispatcher told her to stay put while they sent someone to the scene. An hour later, she was still sitting by the side of the road.

“It wasn’t feeling too safe — a single woman by the roadside, wondering if the car might come back. And it was cold,” Lundquist said.

Finally, she called her partner, who picked her and the bike up and took them home. Then she called the police nonemergency line.

“They said they had higher priorities, but that they would send someone out to take a report,” Lundquist said. And they did, sending a squad car to her home with two very sympathetic police officers.

Twelve hours later, at 2:30 in the morning, to take a report.

She was back riding again Friday, “and I didn’t get shot,” she said.

Lundquist sent in an email complaint Thursday night and got a call from police internal affairs, which took another report the next day.

We contacted Oakland police several days ago, intending to ask why it took so long. They said they’d get back to us.

We’re still waiting.

Thorny Rose: Members of San Francisco’s Chinese Six Companies held a news conference for the Chinese language press to protest the effort to name the Chinatown Central Subway Station in honor of longtime neighborhood activist and City Hall insider Rose Pak, who died in 2016.

“Rose Pak is not seen as a respectful person in Chinatown,” said Hop Wo Benevolent Association member Steve Ball.

“We use one person’s name, and then another group has another name. We don’t want any name on the station. It should just be Chinatown Station,” Ball said, adding that if the Municipal Transportation Agency puts Pak’s name up, opponents will start a ballot initiative against the naming.

Pak was a longtime foe of the benevolent association, which pretty much ruled the roost in Chinatown prior to Pak’s ascent in the early 1980s.

And while the Chinese Six Companies are respected, Pak and the Chinese Chamber of Commerce were the real powerhouse at City Hall while she was alive.

“Without Rose Pak, there will be no Central Subway,” said David Ho, a political operative who worked with her. “These people were too chickens— to even think about attacking her while she was alive, and now they attack her after her death,” Ho said.

Longtime Chinese Six member Mel Lee said, “Personally I have no problem with naming the station after her, but it has divided the community, and that is not healthy.”

In dissent: As we reported, the San Francisco Civil Service Commission voted 3-1 Monday to bump up San Francisco supervisors’ pay by 12% — $15,016 and roughly three times the pay hike being given to other city workers.

Commissioner Doug Chan cast the single no vote.

Chan wasn’t available to comment for the original story, but he did email us his reasons for voting against the raise.

“Every Supervisor who ran for the office knew the pay-scale for his or her service to the city,” Chan said in an email. “Nobody runs for public office because of the salary. Either you want to be a public servant or you do not.

“I voted against the pay raise because the self-serving presentation was rife with conflict,” he said of a survey of what officials in other counties and cities are paid that was prepared by the board’s budget and legislative analyst.

“All of the analysts who reviewed the Board of Supervisors pay (perhaps at the behest of the board or not), did so in their capacity as city contractors or employees serving at the pleasure of the board. That may represent an inherent conflict of loyalties,” Chan said.

“And, I note,” Chan said. “that nowhere in politics has the salary been raised commensurate with any improvement in the quality of the public decisions rendered.”

That’s a thought.
