And they also described what it was like to fumble around, move around in total darkness after even the emergency lights went out. I was coming up, and she was right here, right across. 87yearold helen stumbled on this landing during the outage, falling on top of another woman who had already fallen down the stairs. I knew we were in trouble when we both had fallen down there. Pitchblack. Pitchblack. There was no emergency lighting whatsoever. And the exit sign wasnt clear. The people didnt even know where the exit was. I was patrolling the halls as people were screaming, they were so terrified of being alone in the dark. The power went out saturday night. The landlord says they had a Security Guard on the premise within hours, but residents say that didnt help with the lack of information and panic that ensued. The head of the Hamilton Tenant Association issued a statement saying the onsite Property Managers simply fled. Vpm and our landlord aha are either criminally negligent, asleep at the wheel or both.

Santa clara county sheriffs deputies were called around 8 40 last night responding to reports that an armed vta contracted Security Officer had fired his weapon at a suspect who had been threatening passengers on the platform. She was transferring from a bus when she encountered the aftermath of the shooting. I seen the shot and the blood right here on his stomach. When i lifted his shirt up, i noticed there was a hole there and thats when i started to aemploy a lot of pressure. The suspect died shortly after being taken to the hospital. These photos released by the Sheriffs Office show the weapons they say the suspect was holding in his hand when he advanced towards the Security Officer, despite attempts to get the suspect to stand down. I would say he closed within approximately 5 to 10 feet before the Security Officer had the discharge his firearm. Although the Sheriffs Office is the sworn police force for the transit system, allied universal has been the agencys supplemental security provider since 2014. The Security Officers are state certified to carry firearms, peopler spray and batons and undergo multiple hours of training. The transset up agency says it is fully cooperating with the investigation. Passengers hope this was an isolated incident but are now left questioning their safety. Even though he was at the wrong, its not something you want to see somebody die every day, you know. Just to see that is traumatizing. At this point the Security Officer is not in custody, but the District Attorneys Office will be reviewing the case. Were in san jose tonight. Im chris nguyen, abc7 news.

Com the kincade fire may be contained with no injuries or fatalities, thank goodness, but the stress on evacuees is real, and really hard to measure. Earlier this week, we introduce youd to a family of nine forced to squeeze into a single trailer. The smoke exposure got them all sick, including two young children. Here is abc7 News Reporter kris reyes with an update. Moms with little ones, make sure you have not just the car tanks filled, but tylenol, ibuprofen, you know, just what the doctor told us, a lot of liquids for the kids. Reporter thats tina guerreros advice to other prents after she was evacuated from her santa rosa home friday night. For nearly a week, her family of nine, all of them forced from their homes, had to squeeze into this trailer. The smoke exposure, tight quarters and restless nights led to a domino effect of sickness that sent her two babies to the hospital. She wouldnt stop coughing and coughing and coughing. It was hard with so many of us living in the trailer, trying to keep the doors closed. These are the conditions that tinas babies and the rest of her family have been dealing with for the last week. We are about 20 miles from the fire zone here in santa rosa. And as you can see behind me, still hazy, still smoky. Lots and lots of our patients that have chronic obstructive tuminski pulmonary disease like as marks everyone seem marks were seeing them in increased numbers all across the city. But for people who are right on the edge, this kind of little bit of extra particulate can pushthem right over. So far no injuries or fatales from the kincade fire, but harder to count how many got sick just from smoke exposure. Tinas family not only had to worry about evacuation. Soon after they were scrambling for a hospital and a pharmacy that wasnt close order packed. Long lines. So patience, moms, we had to wait about three hours for our prescription to be filled. Go out only when you have to. Use the air conditioning if you have it. Stay well hydrated and get a flu shot. In santa rosa, kris reyes for abc7 news. All good advice.
