A 17-year-old Ukiah youth, Doug Lewis, lies in critical condition at Marin General Hospital after a Sonoma County collision near Occidental. A Santa Rosa driver claimed mistaking him for a bundle of rags. Tim Duggan, a runaway, was picked up by Coos Bay police and handed to probation officers at the California Oregon line. Ernest Tucker, 18 to 21, is sought after visiting Lewis's father two days before the accident. Fence stakes were found around Lewis before the hit and investigators suspect Tucker was last seen with him. Lewis has begun to walk but speech remains impaired and brain infection looms as the major danger.
