gun pointed at him and going after the youthful carjacker who police later identified as being only 14 years old. 72-year-old hector estrada, a retired plumber and long time little league coach was unloading sodas from the back of his car when a teenager confronted hip, demanding the keys. >> i said no way. i'm not going to give you. he showed me his gun and stuff like that. i said i don't care if you have a gun. i'm not going give you my keys. so he reach and grabbed them. >> home security video shows what happened next. >> he jumped in the car and i reached in and tried to pull him back. but he punched me and broke my glasses. and that's how i got all these cuts right here. and then i couldn't -- i started bleeding, so i couldn't see anymore. i just went around the car. i said you're on camera, and i pointed up there at the camera, and he says i don't care. and then he says i got a gun. and i said i don't care. so grabbed.

>> estrada says he is not sure why he was so brave, but said he would do it again. police a shoe away after he ran a red light and crashed into another vehicle. police said he was only 14. he was taken to juvenile hall. >> i just hate to see him because he is under 18 or whatever, let him go with a spanking or something like that. he might do it again. >> the estradas and other neighbors bought their homes 46 years ago and always felt safe until recently when cars were stolen and strangers appear to be casing their street. now they're feeling vulnerable and putting up security cameras. >> how can a young boy be so like that, so aggressive, so mean to an elder person, you know? >> you did see that mr. estrada suffered some minor injuries to his face. he did not require any stitches. he even said he refused to go to the hospital for treatment. the 14-year-old suspect has been booked for assault with a deadly weapon, carjacking, robbery, and elder abuse. in san jose, david louie, abc7 news.

>> all right, thank you, david. >>that infuriating to watch. tonight the abc7 news i-team digs into the backgrounds of the new bosses at pg&e one day after the utility announced a new ceo and ten new directors for its board. >> i-team reporter dan noyes is here with the latest. dan? >> ama and dan, pg&e declined my request to interview the incoming ceo bill johnson today, or to reveal how much he'll make in his new job. but we've been combing the archives and talking industry experts what to expect. >> long time grateful dead listener. >> life has been good for bill johnson, the man nominated to lead pg&e out of bankruptcy. he raked in $8.1 million last year of ceo of the tennessee valley authority, a federally owned electricity corporation, making johnson the highest paid federal employee. in an interview with boston consulting group, he described his management style as laid back with keen focus. >> so i'm not going get too excited with good news. i'm not going get too down with

bad news. i'm going to be pretty laid back. >> just last year johnson called for his resignation after pg&e bought a pair of $10 million corporate jets and a $7 million luxury helicopter once owned by dallas cowboys owner jerry jones for executives to use. in the announcement yesterday naming johnson as ceo, pg&e said he is the right leader as we work to strengthen our safety culture and navigate a complex and challenging period in our company's history. not an opinion shared by everyone in the industry. >> it's a very important job, and it seems like there are better candidates out to do it. >> nuclear safety advocate tells me when johnson took over at north carolina's progress energy, its five reactors were top rated by the nuclear regulatory commission. within a year of johnson arriving, the safety ratings fell. when he left, the ratings got better, and reactor safety decline after he arrived at his new job, the tennessee valley authority. >> so it seems like the opposite of the midas touch under his

tutelage react safety performance drops. >> he says one big issue was slashing the maintenance program for the reactors. clean energy advocate adam browning is concerned under johnson, the tva relied heavily on coal and very little on wind and solar. >> he doesn't have a good record on renewable energy. >> it's california state law that we move to 100% renewable energy by the year 2045. >> what we've seen at his previous stops is really just an old school utility really heavily dependent on coal and fracked gas. we're trying to build the utility of the future. he's got a resume very much rooted in the past. >> whatever they propose is not a done deal, and pg&e should expect some real scrutiny about their picks. >> former cpu member katherine sandoval echoes concerns about johnson and the new board members proposed by pg&e. half of the ten nominees come from east coast investment firms. >> we need to see a commitment not just to pg&e's financial bottom line, but to the bottom

line of the safety of californians. >> shareholders will get to vote on the new board and the ceo at the annual meeting coming up on may 21st. pg&e tells me johnson's pay will be covered by shareholders and not rate payer, and that half of his incentive compensation will be tied to safety performance. clearly a very important issue as wildfire season comes up. >> definitely. all right. thank you, dan. abc7 news is committed to building a better bay area. we don't shy away from the tough topics, and we look for solutions for you. alameda residents are about to decide on a proposed homeless center that some say just doesn't belong. it would be the biggest in the east bay, and the vote takes place this tuesday. let's go to abc7 news reporter leslie brinkley who is there live with more on the story. leslie? >> hi there, dan. i'm standing in one of 11 buildings here on this piece of property in alameda. it used to be a housing for the merchant marines, then the u.s. government, the u.s. department of agriculture used it as a test

lab. and now the federal government's given their okay to alameda to turn all of this into senior homeless housing, specifically for medically frail seniors, including those who are coming off things like dialysis and chemo. >> this space would be housing for homeless seniors. wonder we divide it up into three units. it would have a bed, a small kitchenette and a bathroom. >> assisted living for the homeless in hospice care across from crab cove visitor center in this popular beach in alameda. >> we are afraid that the homeless facility would be up concerned about the safety and the crime. >> we have to protect our hood. >> this woman

it, that she dressed up like a crab to promote measure b. friends of crab cove hope a yes vote will declare the land open space and block development. also on the ballot in tuesday's special election, a yes on measure a, which would okay the homeless wellness center. >> the fear is that it will attract homeless encampments nearby. how do you address this? >> there is always a difference between the fear and the facts. and we've got a lot of data to show that folks that are being discharged from medical respite don't stay in the community. they go back to their communities of origin. >> to me it's an issue of values. do we take care of our most vulnerable. >> the city councilman and the mayor weighed in. >> every community in our state bar none has a problem with homelessness, and we all have to do something about it. we can't keep saying can't we just send them to oakland? >> there are signs up as you drive around alameda everywhere saying vote yes for measure a or

vote yes for measure b. we have yet to see this is going to become rezoned as open space, ofuture all of these buildings that already exist are converted into being a homeless wellness center. we'll find out what happens on tuesday. in alameda, i'm leslie brinkley, abc7 news. >> it's going to be very interesting, leslie. thank you. we invite you to share your ideas and see what your neighbors think by joining our better bay area facebook group. the small east bay city of piedmont may soon be without any gas stations. the shell at wildwood and grand is up for sell, and the valero station on grand avenue is closing this month. more from eric thomas who is live in piedmont. eric? >> and ama, those of us who work in san francisco already complain about how hard it is to find a gas station open in downtown san francisco. well, you see this valero behind me? the garage doors are closed. for today it's the end of the business day. but soon they could be closed permanently.

>> there are so few services in piedmont and that is an essential one. >> simon ho has built a close relationship with customer over the ten years he owned this station. >> pretty steady and loyal. >> but that loyalty can't overcome the economic realities that are forcing him to shut down by the end of april. first problem, monthly rent that he says is about to more than double. >> went up from 8,000 to almost $18,000. and that's 110%. there is no way i can be able to afford it. >> we tried to reach simon's landlord but haven't received a call back. simon says he was told a higher figure is more in tune with market rates. still, the profit margin of selling gas is slkeepgsafloat. third, business is down 10% because of the advent of hybrid and electric go green, which is nice, i don't have any problem with that. >> the only other station in piedmont is this shell, that

owner jeff hansen is considering selling, both because of high mi mileage cars and the state requires him to dig up his underground tanks and replace them by 2025. >> people who have gotten it down have paid between $500,000 and $600,000. >> gas stations close quickly because of the economy. alameda county had an estimated 338 stations in 2010. that dropped to 310 in 2014 and clawed back to 378 by 2017. contrast that with san francisco with 103 stations in 2010, 79 by 2014, and 93 by 2017. what those figures don't show is the loyalty a good mechanic can generate. even the piedmont police take their cars here and plan on following simon when he moves. in fact, captain crismon han told me that all 12 police vehicles and two trailers get serviced right across the street there at valero.

they're less than a block apart, but later this month, simon is going to move to 14th and macarthur in oakland, and that's where they're going to have to go to get their cars serviced. in piedmont, eric thomas, abc7 news. >> thank you. it's been almost 18 months since the north bay wildfires, some of the most destructive fires in our state history. >> 44 people died. hundreds of others narrowly escape aid live, including residents of a senior living facility. tonight for the first time, a care provider at that facility talks with the abc7 news i-team. i'm meteorologist sandhya patel. we've had a few showers today. and on mount tam cam, we're starting to see it again. we'll let you know when the widespread rain arrives. hour-by-hour timeline coming up. san francisco still has no plan to deaonge inhe downt michael finney s michael finney s a ride r

state regulates rideshare companies. >> on public streets and around public venue, plans on how to handle rideshae are a hot topic. >> michael finney continue ours week-long look at rideshare realities with that story tonight. >> the cultural disruption of uber and lyft is well documented. you guys have been talking about it all week, night after night. so we wondered what will be done to the stem any disruption to traffic that may be caused by those two services. months before the chase center will be open as the new home of the golden state warriors, in weeks before the salesforce transit center is tentatively reschedu scheduled to reopen, this what traffic is already like in one of the busiest areas of the city with plenty of uber and lyft cars streaming by. what will happen when commutes return to the transit center, and sellout crowds descend on chase? while only one mile away, giants fans rock oracle.

paul rose is with the san francisco metropolitan transportation authority. >> we do know that a lot of people are going to be traveling around the areas of the transit center and chase center. around the transit center, in the downtown area we know there is a lot of congestion. >> knowing is one thing. finding a solution takes time. >> we should have plan developed by the end of this year, early next year. >> that will mean no plan is in place before the transit center's anticipate red opening june. in cities worldwide, ride hailing services have gotten ahead of cities. susan shaheen is with the institute of transportation studies at uc berkeley. >> in responding to it, cities are getting better and better at responding to it. but in terms of planning for it, i don't think they were planning for it. >> to get a taste of what to expect, i caught a lyft and got in at about 6:50. and then headed towards the chase center. we allowed ourselves 40 minutes to go two and a half miles for what theoretically would be a

7:30 warrior game. it took ten minutes to go the first 8/10 of a mile. it didn't get much quicker after that. by the time we hit the lefty o'doul bridge, the chase center is nearing our sights. it's now 15 minutes before the game. now remember, we're just in normal commute time traffic. there is no giants game or any other major event in the area. the driver picks up speed. we finally arrive, ten minutes before tip-off. well, the ride was comfortable, and the driver certainly knew what he was doing. he drove safely. but that two and a half miles, it wasn't quick. it took 31 minutes. >> a new metro stop is being built in front of the chase center. muni plans to have multiple rail cars on the platform, waiting for fans to leave the arena. the city is also working with the warriors to develop a transit plan. the warriors tell us it agrees with the city that limited curb space should be used as

efficiently as possible. one city report calls for an offsite parking lot for ridesharing services to stage. but no plan is finalized at this time. the plan for the transit center is part of a citywide plan to better manage curbside space. while there, we saw one ride-hailing driver use a crosswalk to pick up passengers. >> we can't build more curb space, but we can use it better and we can use it in a more safe man sorry that things like tncs can operate safely on the streets. >> tnc is another name for ride hailing service. at levi's stadium, the 49ers restrict pickups and drop-offs to parking lot 7 a mile away. the team believes the ride share program works best when they are located on the outskirts of the stadium to minimize the impact on traffic. shaheen of uc berkeley points to paris as a model. in that city she says you can only pick up an uber or lyft in a designated spot.

>> so if people are able to walk to a pickup location, that could aid in terms of efficiency with respect to pickup and drop-off. >>that would lighten traffic, but it would also mean less convenience for passengers. at san francisco international airport, ground transportation vehicles make up more than four out of ten cars. out of that, 80% are uber and lyft vehicles. for the first time, uberx and lyft customers can get picked up from the airport on the roof of the domestic garage. in a few months, the airport says traffic around the terminals has been reduced by more than 20%. >> our goal really is to be able to divert about a third of all pickup activity into the garage. >> architects are also trying to do their part. this 750,000-square-foot, $650 million project in burlingame, which facebook will lease, includes specific drop-off

locations in the center for ride-hailing services. another project by gensler in los angeles has room for ride hailing services to pull into the building on the ground floor. the same area can be repurposed into office space should the needs of the tenants change or the use of cars decrease as some ae predicting. this same concept is likely to be adapted for buildings in the bay area as well. >> so we have larger lobbies, larger spaces in front of the building in places where cars can pull over and get out of traffic so that they can pick up d opin pasnger tics also something the city is trying. ride hailing services are currently prohibited from picking up and dropping off passengers in areas designated for taxis only, including certain areas of market street. ultimately, the answer may be to get people out of their private cars. >> the best way to alleviate congestion in san francisco is to put more people on transit.

and the only way to do that is to make transit more attractive for people who need it. >> now i'll stay on top of this and let you know when the city releases its new traffic plan for uber and lyft that is going to lodge some conversations. >> it sure is. great report there. thank you. >> we are covering the rideshare industry from all angles. it's all on our website, abc7news.com. we're also taking your questions. scroll down to find the form. spring storms are not done yet. here is a live look outside from the roof
