Hospital said they could not comment on the case due to patient privacy laws but said in a statement, patients in our emergency room are offered food, clothing and access to transportation and housing resources, if needed. Additionally, Dominican Hospital works with several organizations in the community to provide resources for those in need, but that did not seem to happen in this case. Today we found the man still on the streets sitting on a bus stop bench near downtown santa cruz. He did not want to be identified or interviewed, but adams did follow up with him and said the man told him Hospital Security ejected him without his belongings or other medications after a dispute with staff about the need for numerous blood draws. It doesnt matter what happened in the hospital. Security personnel from a hospital shouldnt put an elderly man in a wheelchair out with so few clothing in the wintertime at 1 or 12 in the morning. Reporter the man is apparently from the monterey area, may be transporting back and forth through Public Transportation into this area. Homeless advocates are now looking for anyone who might be related to him that might be able to help him out. Live in santa cruz, len ramirez, kpix5. New at 6 00 our first look at how the San Francisco mayors race is shaping up. We have the results of our exclusive kpix5 survey usa poll. Former state senator mark leno leads the pack with 22 of the vote. Acting mayor london breed is a close second at 19 followed by supervisor jane kim at 14 . Former supervisor Angela Alioto rounds out the top four candidates for the special election june 5th. Kpix5s phil matier is here with a closer look at what is behind these numbers. Its an interesting time. The untimely passing of mayor ed lee has taken an 18 month race and shrunk it down to a five month sprint and all the candidates were out at the gate this morning. Lets take a look. And theyre off with just five months to go before the special june election the top four San Francisco mayoral candidates, mark leno, jane kim, Angela Alioto and acting mayor london breed were out this morning working hard for the labor vote at todays annual mlk breakfast. You got to move fast. Every minute counts. Reporter leading the pack is former state senator leno who according to a new exclusive kpix5 survey usa poll is the first pick with 22 of the city voters. I feel good. Im energized. Reporter leno better be energized because the same poll shows acting mayor london breed on his heels followed by supervisor jane kim with former supervisor Angela Alioto bringing up the rear. We had planned on a two year marathon. Its now a five month sprint. Reporter add in the fact one of four voters are undecided on any candidate and the bottom line is anyone could win. Im going to make a lot of noise. The no. 1 issue in the city today is making sure that we have a clean city. Removing those 10 enencampments. Reporter and then there is encampments. Reporter and then there is the influence of tech. While more than half said the influence of Tech Companies has been good for the city, almost everyone said tech has too much say in city hall. We should be investing those dollars back into the community. Everyones voice should be heard at city hall irrespective of their depth of their pockets. Its a total divide and its not about money influencing. Its about the person who is in the office and what theyre going to do to make sure that theyre fair, that they support all constituents of the city. Reporter in short, when it comes to issues, theres not a whole lot of differences between the top four candidates. So the final decision could come down to whose personality sells best with the public. As for the labor vote, as Firefighter Union president tom oconnor told us, theyve been good to all candidates and all candidates have been good to them over the years. Weve endorsed everybody running. So this will be the most difficult decision weve had. Its going to be tough for voters as well because San Francisco as you may know has rank choice voting. So everybody gets three picks. When we look at these numbers, its the top four that are probably going to be splitting it up. I have a feeling this will be a tight race and go down to the wire. Looking at those numbers which one stands out as the most meaningful . Actually none of them have to do with the candidates themselves but the overall perception of how San Franciscos going. 46 said San Francisco is on the wrong track and only 35 said its headed in the right direction. You take a look at numbers like that and what its basically saying is that people arent happy. So its going to be a tough time for whoever is foreseen as being in charge. Theres room for somebody to jump in, take advantage of that. Try to make this city even better, allen, what a challenge. Right now authorities are looking for a man who led officers on a chase in a stolen truck. That chase started about noon in San Francisco. It traveled down the peninsula ending near highway 237 and the sunnyvale golf course. The suspect stole this white box truck and drove the wrong way on highway 237 just before crashing. The man ditched the vehicle and took off running. Look at this video. It shows officers with their guns drawn looking for the suspect. Chp says this all started when the owner of the truck began chasing the thief. We were informed that the registered owner was following his stolen truck. Very fortunate that truck did not collide with any vehicles on 237. No one was hurt. No one was injured. Look at what was inside the truck, a washer and some other supplies. The suspect is on the loose this evening. Theyve been at it for 10 years and now a street widening project in the north bay has hit yet another roadblock. Stoney point road in santa rosa was supposed to be done in 2016, but a newly discovered design error is making the project drag on even longer. Kpix5s emily turner says thats why crews now have to tear apart what they already finished. Reporter the mistake of a few inches will mean more city money and months of delay on what has now become santa rosas longest road work project. Its irritating as all get out. Reporter this 1,000foot stretch of stoney point road is the last phase of the project, but the city says a design error is now pushing the finish date from spring to summer and upping the tab by 2 to 300,000. Its easier to show you exactly what im talking about and what went wrong. Essentially the road is at one level. If i get down here, you can see that its much higher than the curb right here. Originally they were going to bring the road down to this level, but then they found out that the water main underneath this portion of the road is actually not as deal as they thought. So now deep as they thought, so now they have to bring the curb and gutter back up to the level of the road in order to make everything flush. The entire project has taken about 10 years and this is the third delay. At this point the city said no one person or party is to blame, but the locals want more of an answer. Why has it got to this point where its taken so long and there is extra money. Who is keeping track of this . Thats what i want to know. Reporter in santa rosa, emily turner, kpix5. It does make you wonder. Surfers taking advantage of some big waves, but there is danger when the surf kicks up, of course.
