little boy and his grandparents were taking a walk in the neighborhood when he was struck by a car that just kept on goin. >> just that split second. one minute they're there, the next minute they're gone. things can happen so quickly. reporter: the chp says the 3-year-old darted into the street possibly following the family dog when he was struck by a car, which then left the scene. >> if the vehicle did stop then continued on and left the scene,en that would suggest that they were aware they hit something. >> reporter: paramedics rushed the toddler to valley medical center where he is being treated for cuts and bruises as well as a possible brain injury. >> during the day and during the nighttime there's a lot of cars passing by so fast. >> reporter: maria vargas has lived for a decade near the intersection where the hit-and- run happened. she said her neighbors have long been concerned about speeding cars but can't believe that someone would hit a child and keep driving. >> that person didn't stopped and it's like he or she didn't have feelings. >> reporter: investigators say the driver sped off in a silver dab possibly a honda but in the

dark and chaos no one got the plate number. the chp says the driver would have been in far less trouble if he had simply stopped. >> we know a bad thing happened but it wouldn't have necessarily been the fault of the driver. but now what we have is a felony hit-and-run. >> reporter: now, the challenge for investigators is that they don't have a license plate number or a good description of the driver but that's where the public can help. the chp says that if anyone has any information about this case, you are urged to contact them. in san jose, devin fehely, kpix 5. millbrae police are looking for the driver who hit and killed a pedestrian last night. it happened at el camino real. a man in his 30s was struck and killed in a crosswalk. the vehicle is described as a silver or light-colored suv similar to a rav-4. the fight between california and the california dmv heating up today. a high stakes secret meeting on uber's decision to keep

time that uber and other tech companies have flouted the rules whether it's picking up riders at the san francisco airport without permits or paying local business taxes. in fact, the city doesn't even know how many ubers there are operating in the city on any given day. >> we have asked for data to identify exactly, you know, how many cars are on the road and to this date we haven't received that information. >> reporter: but sightings of the automated cars blowing through red lights like this video has turned up the call for controls. >> i saw those videos and that was the reason yusef bey so adamant about him complying. >> reporter: but what the city can and do about the cars is unanswered. have you told the mr ist to stop them? >> again, i think there's jurisdictional things that i'm being advised by the city attorney. >> reporter: now, uber says in a statement that they are aware of the problems. they are not making any comments today. they said that they are working to fix them but where it goes from here remains to be seen. ken? >> yeah, phil. the real weird part of this

thing is that uber and the state, the dmv, are secretive about this meeting. we don't know where it is or who is at the meeting or any of that. is that unusual for dmv for a public agency to be doing that? >> it's very unusual. what we have here is not only the dmv, we called the dmv and we called the attorney general's office. the attorney general's office said we are just the lawyer representing the dmv. the dmv wouldn't tell us where or when the meeting is or the results of it which is pretty unusual considering this is the last time i looked the state of california and these are our streets. >> all right, phil matier reporting live from the streets of san francisco. thank you. we are getting new video of a violent confrontation involving bart police in san francisco. this is newly released body cam video showing bart police arresting michael smith at the embarcadero station last july. officers have been responding to reports that an armed man had tried to rob a passenger. bart officials say when police

buildings are not permitted as residences. they are only recognized as commercial and shopping spaces. but as kpix 5's jackie ward explains, now the artists are appealing. >> reporter: julie spoke on behalf of her twin sister amy today, who lives in an art community in san francisco. >> she says it's a shame we are encourage to create as children but when older we are expected to fall in line and put the paint brushes down. >> reporter: following the ghost ship fire julie says artists are scared they could face eviction without any notice. >> by forcing inspections on to or theist wire houses you're conducting witch hunts. you're breeding fear and stress by causing evictions. >> reporter: the petition asks the building inspection commission to immediately cease unsolicited artist building inspections until more resources are in place for artists, not be so heavy-handed in inspections and enforcement that results in evictions, and waive permit fees associated with building upgrades. the initial feedback from the president of the commission surprised julie. >> in response, i'm an artist and live in an art space and, um, i agree 100% with this.

and so does our board of supervisors. >> nice to know that there's some sympathy there. i was not expecting the level of sympathy that i received. >> reporter: deborah walker said an outreach program has been around for more than 20 years to make work and living spaces safer for artists and prevent evictions. but more could be done. still, is living in a potential fire trap worth it? >> i think it's something that's important to remember is this isn't common, um, right now there's a lot of fear and what happened was an absolute tragedy but this is not something that happens all the time. >> reporter: the building inspections commission is expected to release details of a new program next month. they will be working alongside the fire and health departments to get buildings safer for artists to live in. in san francisco, jackie ward, kpix 5. warriors star steph curry is using his feet to help raise money for victims of the oakland warehouse fire. he is auctioning off two special pairs of shoes on ebay. the pair on the right says oakland strong, on the left ghost ship with the initials of all 36 victims on both sets.
