she went to check on it, the shop and everything inside gone. mwongozo was able to make contact with the woman who ran the shop. she got an address. she was told to pick up the dress at that place, and when she showed up, no one was there. despite the stress, manguso is trying to stay positive, saying it could have been worse. she almost brought her fiance's tux to that same shop. >> that was almost gone too, because i took his suit to her to get altered. i took also my goddaughter's dress to her to get altered, but because she was taking a while with my stuff, i decided to go somewhere else and we got it back quickly. thank god i didn't leave that there. otherwise i would have lost my veil. that and everything else. >> so now we have reached out to the bridal shop, but we have not heard back. and i've been saying her name wrong the whole time. mwongozo excuse me, has had an outpouring of support. her friends have offered up dresses.

a stranger on facebook saw the story, sent the dress to san diego, where she's going to get married. despite all of this, mwongozo says she's excited to marry her best friend september 1st. >> we are exactly one month away from the start of fall, but today starbucks is launching its fall menu, and that means the return of its pumpkin spice latte. this is the earliest that it's been back in stores. last year, it debuted on august 24th. so just two days later and new this year on the menu is the iced apple crisp nondairy cream chai. there's also a pumpkin cream cold brew. starbucks says roughly 10% of its overall sales come from seasonal staples. >> okay, here's my reasoning here. okay. tell it. do it now in august when it feels kind of cool out there. okay. because september october is our summer. and that's when you do not want okay to taste like pumpkin. so get it the first week and then you loop back around and then november. exactly. >> come back around.

san francisco police say she poses a threat to the public. a judge has issued a new arrest warrant for her. people who have encountered lacey say she's become increasingly aggressive. san francisco mother jenna p says that lacey screams and chases people and their children around city parks, threatening murder and shouting other vicious attacks. jenna says it's been happening since 2020. lacey has been arrested six times this year and the latest was last month. but she keeps getting released back onto the streets. >> police can't force her into mental health treatment. it's an issue that we run into with a lot of folks in the city who are suffering. >> if that's the case, then something needs to change. i mean, we have to do something differently. then what is it that we need to do differently? >> neighbors created fliers initially to post in city parks to notify people about lacey's actions, and now neighbors have connected online to report incidents and also share information about where she is. lacey is believed to be unhoused, and anybody who sees her is encouraged not to engage

with her, but rather call 911. the public defender's office says it's not jail time that she needs, but support services. live in the studio gloria rodriguez, abc seven news. >> thank you gloria. today, students at galileo high school in san francisco can reach out to wellness staff for help. a day after a student was shot near campus. that shooting forced the school to go into a lockout mode yesterday. that means school continued, but no one was allowed on campus. the shooting happened at north point and polk streets during school lunch time. witnesses say a student was shot in the shoulder. they were taken to the hospital. they do not have life threatening injuries. the incident frightened students and staff. >> just got the, the signal over the intercom that we were going into lockdown. and sad and a little alarming. >> police have not said if the shooter was also a student in the east bay. >> neighbors of one oakland

community have taken matters into their own hands to prevent sideshows and reckless driving. but the effort to keep their streets safe has not gone as planned. this oakland neighborhood has been plagued by constant sideshows, so residents got together to set up speed bumps and fill tires with concrete and dirt to try to stop them. initially, the plans worked, but the city had to remove those obstacles due to city code violations. >> i get it that there's policies and laws and all that stuff. we understand that, but we're like i said earlier, we're at a point where we're we're we're not scared. we're we're angry. and we're going to do whatever it takes to turn around and protect our neighborhood. >> city leaders visited that neighborhood recently. they say they're looking into the possibility of making permanent speed bumps. >> us job growth during the past year was much weaker than initially estimated, according to new data from the labor department. monthly payroll figures overstated job growth by

about 818,000. in the 12 months ending in march. amanda, that could be another reason the fed could lower interest rates next month. >> yeah, reggie, this data is showing the labor market is not as strong as originally thought, which is one factor the fed has been watching to decide whether to lower interest rates. and if you're looking for a job right now. a new report from indeed is showing some employers are becoming more transparent about benefits. the report shows 59% of job postings now advertise at least one benefit. that's up from 40% in january of 2020. >> 80% of advertisements include health, dental and vision insurance. so while health insurance is required for large companies with full time workers, dental and vision are not. it's useful to know that such a high share of postings advertise all three. >> experts say ask specifics when looking at jobs in sectors like tech, education and science. benefits are often implied, but not advertised. also look into things like parental leave and any other

lifestyle needs. knowing the details can help when negotiating your benefits package. back to you at the desk. >> thanks, amanda. more fallout this morning from the ransomware attack that hit dublin based patelco credit union earlier this year. the bank now says members personal information was accessed. that discovery was made during the bank's investigation into the original attack. everything from people's names and emails to social security numbers and driver's license numbers were exposed. affected people will be contacted and offered free identity theft protection and credit monitoring. canine contest. the tsa hosting its annual competition. one local pup is a finalist. >> but first, a check on the weather with drew or 540 this morning. >> we're looking at the morning forecast, and the big takeaway today is the warming process is very slow. we have cooler air moving in this afternoon, temperatures going below average later on today. speaking of our temperatures, let's look at our
