Woman beaten at San Francisco General Hospital

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- An elderly woman was beaten while inside the emergency room at San Francisco General Hospital. The attack occurred on Friday night around 10 p.m.

Police officers are actually posted at the hospital on a regular basis. In fact, when our ABC7 News cameras were there we saw them dealing with a man who appeared to have been involved in some kind of disruption in the ER. We also saw them bringing out another man in handcuffs.

However, San Francisco General says this is the first time something like this has happened. A hospital spokesperson told ABC7 News the suspect, 29-year-old Oren Zebest, was being transferred from the emergency room to the psych ER for a psychiatric evaluation. That's when he suddenly jumped off the gurney and randomly attacked an elderly woman who was being treated.
