Willie Banks

SAN ANTONIO -- University Hospital is looking for family of a 60-year-old homeless man.

Willie Banks was admitted to the hospital on June 9, when he was found by police walking in the middle of traffic on Loop 410.

Banks has no form of identification, and due to his altered mental status, he has only been able to tell hospital social workers that he's from Luling. But law enforcement authorities there were not able to find Banks' family.

Banks is ready to be discharged from the hospital, but without a safe place to go, hospital officials cannot release him.

If you know Banks or his family, contact University Hospital at 210-358-2300.
