DALY CITY (Map, News) - Daly City officials are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest of a suspect after a 78-year-old woman was savagely beaten by a burglar in her home.
Eight Daly City detectives are working on the case since the woman was attacked when she surprised the burglar in her home over the weekend.
Authorities say when officers found her Saturday afternoon she was semi-conscious, after having been beaten by a crow bar.
The woman is listed in critical condition in an intensive care unit of a local hospital. Her name has not been released.
Police are looking for a South San Francisco man, 28-year-old Jose Perez Gonzalez, as a suspect the attack. Gonzales is an legal immigrant from Mexico, according to police. Investigators believe he may be working as a house painter in the San Jose area.

The police want help from the public to apprehend 28-year-old Jose Perez-Gonzalez, an undocumented resident, who is a suspect in nearly beating to death a 78-year-old woman last Saturday during a botched home burglary in Daly City. The suspect is well known to San Mateo County and known illegal immigration status! Our local law enforcement agencies "en mass" should be sued handsomely for their collective failure to turn Jose Perez-Gonzales over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement for appropriate disposition – deportation! It is time for our politicians and law enforcement to reaffirm their oaths of office and direct the enforcement of our immigration laws. It is time to fine employers for hiring undocumented immigrants. It is time to remove the "Sanctuary City" status across the nation including San Francisco and Redwood City! It is time to deport all illegal immigrants en mass and set up a guest workers program leading to citizenship!
