this area. they've been here all night long. here's what we know about what happened. alameda police department says three people were killed. and additional people are being treated at local hospitals. police say they got a call last night from someone saying their neighbor was shot here on kittyhawk road. they found the victim and multiple family members who had been shot, including minors. the three people died and additional family members are in hospitals. and police are telling us right now there is no threat to the public. we're working to learn more information about what exactly happened here. live in alameda. gloria rodriguez, abc seven news. >> thank you, gloria and australian ceo hurt during a trip to san francisco is improving. this morning. his company released a statement less than an hour ago about his condition. now he still is at the hospital with very serious injuries. and at this point, it's not entirely clear how he got them. colin bettles is the ceo of grain producers australi. michael mccormick is his former

coworker and friend, and he says bettles got to the city on july 4th that night, was staying at hotel garrett at seventh and mission. he was found around 1030 that night along market street in a semi-conscious state without his wallet or phone. he had a gash that required stitches down the back of his head and a broken eye socket. >> you'd think he'd be able to walk down, you know, a well-lit street, one of the busiest thoroughfares. in, you know, a city of with a population of close to a million people. and, you know, be okay. but, obviously for paul, colin, that wasn't the case. >> bettles was on a work trip in san francisco. police are looking for more information about what happened. new this morning, a new poll shows americans are in favor of biden stopping his reelection campaign overnight. this abc news washington post ipsos poll found two thirds of americans, including a majority of biden

you believe he should run for reelection? i'm not. >> am i speaking english to you? i'm not going to be making any statements about any of that right now in the hallway. >> that exchange now, actor george clooney is the latest major democratic donor to call for president biden to drop out, writing a searing op ed in the new york times, clooney writing, quote, we are not going to win in november with this president. >> on top of that, we won't win the house, and we're going to lose the senate. this isn't only my opinion. this is the opinion of every senator and congress member and governor that i've spoken with in private, every single one, irrespective of what he or she is saying publicly. that's the end of his quote. a source tells abc news senate democrats have scheduled a new meeting for this afternoon. the group is planning to meet with biden's senior advisers and his campaign chairwoman. back to you, reggie. >> thanks, amanda. the new abc news washington post ipsos poll found most democrats prefer

kamala harris if the president were to leave the race, governor newsom would be the second choice. there's another interesting thing that happens here. when you look at the polling, it indicates that in a hypothetical race between the vice president and former president trump, vp harris would have the edge. she has a 49 to 46% lead over trump. now, it's worth noting this is still within the margin of error with the republican national convention starting on monday, former president donald trump appears to be narrowing down his choices for running mate. >> in an interview with fox news radio, trump acknowledged the shortlist includes ohio senator jd vance, north dakota governor doug burgum and florida senator marco rubio. now, trump said, taking on rubio as a running mate would be a bit complicated. they both call florida home, and trump and rubio would need to forgo florida's 30 electors if they ran on the same ticket. abc news will be covering the republican national convention all next week. starting monday.

price's office hasn't responded to the governor's office. politico asked, but hasn't heard back. and we've reached out this morning, but it's still very early for a response. this comes at a very sensitive time for da price. she's facing a recall campaign, accused of being too soft on crime, though supporters have argued she's doing the job the way she was elected to do it. governor newsom's office has been involved in the efforts to crack down on crime in alameda county, especially in oakland. he signed off on the installation of 500 high tech traffic cameras in march. they're meant to help law enforcement identify vehicles linked to crimes. as for the announcement expected today, it's happening at 10 a.m. we'll stream it live. if you have our abc seven bay area apps, we'll be sure to notify you as soon as it starts kumasi. >> thank you. amanda. oakland police and city council members are teaming up to address crime along the hegenberger corridor. yesterday, chief floyd mitchell and council member trevor reed met with the store manager of this gas station. you remember

after losing to columbia last night. about a dozen players from uruguay's national team were fighting with fans in the stands. it started behind the uruguay bench just after the match ended. the players climbed a staircase into the mostly pro columbia crowd, but a small group of uruguay fans fought with columbia supporters as drinks were thrown. your grace captain says players went into the stands to protect their families and call the whole situation a disaster. >> time is 645 this morning. there's another controversy brewing about bike lanes in san francisco. the city has a vision

for a bicycle network. sfmta is working on a plan, and this week it presented three possible scenarios for the north beach neighborhood. so one option includes bike lanes protected with permanent barriers. >> scenario a really presents a highly protected network. these are bike lanes that are protected with permanent barriers. and some of the trade offs. with a network like that is that there's a lot of parking removal. >> other options would have less impact on parking spots, but have less protection for cyclists. residents and merchants say their main concerns are the impact these changes could have on businesses in the area. more public meetings are being planned. officials hope to have a proposal for the citywide network finalized by early next year. >> ev charging stations are pretty much everywhere here in the bay area, and with them come those large fans to cool the equipment. >> but one station in san francisco is becoming an issue because of the noise. neighbors on clara street in soma say it's a constant nuisance. they say

for the past 6 to 9 months, the fans have been running and it's been hard to work or even sleep with the noise. what it sounds like. we tested the decibel reading outside of one residents apartment door and it read 70. to give you perspective, according to san francisco's noise and sound code, anything over 50 to 60db is considered more than the maximum acceptable limit for noise outside of a residential property. now, the company that owns the charging station said in a statement. while our charging station meets all the city permit requirements, we have tried several options to mitigate the complaint of one resident regarding fan noise. although the fans have been part of the building for a long time, the increase in 24 hour demand from ev drivers has increased their use. in the evening in the east bay, a group of homeowners in pleasanton is dealing with a

vole infestation and can't do much to solve it. >> voles are small rodents, kind of like rats or hamsters, one neighbor says. there are so many of them that they attract several different predators to their backyard. in fact, this video shows a herring eating one, not a herring. a bird eating one of those voles and a raccoon going for a late night snack. steve biro said he tried to get rid of them, but a law prevents him from using any poison. i think we meant a heron on an average day, i take out of my pool anywhere between 6 to 9 voles. >> every single day, the city tells abc seven news. >> it will not install any traps or toxic bait, but it is considering adding owl boxes to attract owls that feed on voles. >> a new report is casting doubt on food safety inspections in berkeley. >> the report by the city auditor found 45% of berkeley food facilities were not inspected last year. only 26% of reports of people getting sick from restaurant food were

investigated within the target of one day, the report cites understaffing among berkeley food inspectors as the main issue. food inspections were much better in alameda county, 97% of food facilities there were inspected at least once last year. >> now for your morning money report, the june inflation report is out. it shows inflation cooled for a third consecutive month. that's according to the bureau of labor statistics. consumer prices dropped 0.1% from may to june and are up about 3% compared to a year ago. falling gas prices, along with a drop in new and used car prices, helped usher in the overall decrease. food and rent prices went up. the new report could potentially pave the way for the fed to cut interest rates. now we take a live look at the new york stock exchange as trading gets underway this morning. we're down about three points. >> big lots is planning to close dozens of locations across the country by the end of the year. the company says 35 to 50 stores will be impacted, but the exact

locations haven't been revealed. we do have a number of big box stores here in the bay area, big lots says inflation is impacting their customers buying power. some reports show sales have dropped 10% in the past year. >> if you shop at costco, get ready to pay more. the retailer is raising its membership fees. basic memberships will increase by five bucks. so now it's $65. executive memberships will increase by $10. that's $130 total. it's the first price hike in seven years. annual fee is one of the biggest profit generating areas for costco. they help offset expenses to keep item prices down, and those changes go into effect september 1st. >> starting tonight. >> tonight, another san francisco landmark is going to be lit up with lasers. 25 lasers will be projecting from the roof of the fairmont hotel into grace cathedral's famous rose window. now, this is last year. the lights, the video of last year's lights, this is the last of the

summer of a laser installation series by the nonprofit illuminate illuminates. also known for the pride laser display that appeared along market street last month, the cathedral lights will be on through sunday night. the door is open each night for free from 830 to midnight. oh, this is really cool. >> but i'm also sorry that it's the last one of the summer. oh, i know we can do more. >> we can write, shout out to illuminate. >> shout out to them, shout out to lasers. yeah, shout out to light in general. what would we do without i know where else can we put lasers for the rest of the year i know, i mean we, i mean there are options. what about the golden gate bridge? shoot lasers from it. i don't know why. i just do. >> it already makes noise. you know, i drive sings. >> yes, and it has laser shooting out of it. >> we need it. we do. maybe

>> maybe the bay bridge. because it doesn't get the love that the golden gate bridge does. >> that's true. i've kind of been talking a lot about the upper level temperatures. remember mount tam now it's at 91. it was 90. so we're looking at 10% relative humidity. it's really warm in the upper elevations. so the national weather service certainly on point with the excessive heat warning, high pressure anchored over california. it's not just northern california, southern california experiencing excessive heat as well. and we're looking at the advisory around the bay. not much of our marine layer left. it is 56 downtown, 55 and half moon bay, 67, in san jose. and you can see how foggy it is here. so with that shallow deck of low clouds, high pressure overhead, it's pushing down on the atmosphere. and that's why we have poor visibility. 70 by the delta 57 santa rosa. look at the other temperatures above about 2000ft. and everyone's in the mid to upper 80s. so it's warm. it's dry. now if we added an offshore flow to this recipe, then we would have a red flag warning,

but thankfully we don't. we've got the fog here. it has been a little bit into the north bay, but certainly not as extensive as it was yesterday into the east bay. so it continues to pull back throughout the day. limited sun, partly cloudy at the coast and then for your friday, it begins its trek into the north bay. you can see into the south bay, and that should allow for just a little bit of heat relief by your friday afternoon. but that advisory and excessive heat warning takes us through friday evening light sea breeze. today. not much of anything moving through the delta. so that's why we're going to see 108 109 by we by the time we get to tomorrow, we'll see a stronger onshore flow. some mother nature trying to help us out, bringing us down the cooling just slightly into friday, still very warm. 101 to 103. but we're back into the 70s and 60s notice marin is still hot. it's also still hot in santa clara, but by saturday, more cooling and then widespread cooling on sunday. so highs

today hotter by about three to maybe 8 or 9 degrees in spots 77 perfect. downtown 85 in oakland, 107 in antioch 98, napa 99 san jose. the accuweather seven day forecast. dangerous heat takes us through tomorrow inland and then a steady cool down kumasi. >> thank you lisa. here is a live look this morning at san francisco international airport, which is now home to a new nonstop flight. alaska airlines is flying directly to liberia. costa rica flights start in december. it will only be for the winter season, though, and there will be one flight a week. the longtime host of wheel of fortune is coming back to the game show for a special occasion. former host pat sajak will be hosting a primetime version of abc's celebrity wheel of fortune this fall. sajak retired from wheel last month after 41 years. celebrity wheel debuts october 7th right here on abc seven. it will air on mondays when the nfl is not airing monday night football. >> a rare dinosaur skeleton is expected to sell for millions of

claim that that should be. >> that should be in golden gate park. that should be the california academy of sciences. let's put it on that. should we? >> are you saying you're in a bid? no. >> i'm saying should we direct our energy toward richie? rich's out there. oh, okay. >> to put it to bid. >> i'm not going to bid. >> give me your card. i'll be $10. >> we start at ten. >> up next, the seven things you need to know today. >> you can watch all of our newscast live and on demand through the abc seven bay area connected tv app. it's available for apple tv, google tv, amazon fire tv, and roku. just download the app now and you can start streaming. >> and as we head to break a live look outside at 656, we'll be r
