Multiple neighborhoods in San Francisco lost power after a PG&E outage Thursday morning.

Cindy Elias’ reappointment effort called ‘political’ jockeying by the Mayor’s Office.

The pedestrian died on the spot, officials said, while the driver of the speeding car was arrested, police said. 

Local officials urged residents to close windows and doors and turn off air conditioning systems “out of an abundance of caution.”

In the Bay Area alone, approximately 108,000 people were still without power as of 4 p.m. Wednesday.
