(CNN) Several bystanders rushed to help a lone San Francisco police officer who was being attacked by a suspect on Friday, according to the San Francisco Police Department and video of the incident. When the officer arrived, she made contact with the male suspect and was attempting to detain him when he attacked her, according to surveillance video that the San Francisco Police Officers Association says captured the incident. In the video, the suspect at first appears to be complying with the officer's commands to turn around and put his hands above his head. The man is then seen grabbing the officer near her shoulder, and a struggle between the two ensues. About a minute after the incident began, other officers arrive on the scene to subdue the man.
