your point it has been a roller coaster ride for a southbay bakery, it started after tesla ordered thousands of pies that they apparently did not want. now they see a major boost in the business thanks to the power of community. when the news spread, customers came to the rescue. now ceo elon musk is vowing to do the same. >> san jose baker was excited when she got the notification that elon musk went on x to say that they wanted to do right for the bakery. she has had an up-and-down relationship with the electric carmaker. it started when tesla placed a $16,000 order for the sweet and savory mini pies for an event the company was throwing. >> he was excited to work with

me. >> a few days later, tesla abruptly canceled. >> they said hey, sorry, we will not need this order, i appreciate your support. and that was that. yes, very hard for me. >> but it gets worse, she already paid for the extra ingredients, scheduled the staff to work overtime and turned down other business. >> it was a big order, so i turned down three inquiries for black history event to be able to do this job for them. and they don't even see that. that is lost revenue for me and i don't care. >> people started talking and once the story got out, the customers started streaming in, there were lines out the door for people who wanted to support the small bakery that was snubbed by the business giant. >> we are here to support since

tesla screwed up and that wasn't right to put in a large order like that and then all of a sudden change their mind. it is a small business. it is her livelihood. >> it is disgusting, the business has to get the materials, pay up-front, many hours, and they do not get reimbursed. >> the publicity is turning things around, so many orders are coming in, some from across the country. >> my head was spinning from all the support, it was just incredible. i feel blessed. i didn't ask for it, so i just feel like wow. >> she says it is starting to make up for what was lost revenue wise, now she has a bigger and more loyal customer

base than she can count on long after the tesla incident blows over. when you are shopping and you have no idea to buy, the idea of being led through a store with the employee helping you every step of the way may seem like special treatment. that is what it is like for everyone who steps inside one san francisco hardware store. but, kelsi thorud reports, this program isn't meant to bring customers in, it is about keeping the thieves out. >> reporter: everything is locked up. sam has worked at fredrickson's hardware for over 20 years, and says he has never witnessed the kind of brazen shoplifting his store has experienced over the last few months. >> it was still locked, but they were just grabbing it and breaking the board and taking all the displays and ripping it off. so now we had to put pieces of oak on top to slow it down even further.

>> reporter: fredrickson's is a neighborhood staple, it has been here since 1896. but in recent weeks, it looks more like a vault than a casual neighborhood supply store it has always been. sam says after a string of thefts , the store decided to implement a new policy. customers now have to wait at the front to be helped and are escorted through the store by an employee to find what they want to purchase. >> this is something we have never done before, even during covid, we never really had to do it like this but, for each customer, we assist them through the whole process. >> reporter: sam says it has been tough, doing things like this has not only frustrated customers, but it has also taken away sales of items customers may have purchased if they were able to browse through the store alone. sam

says at this point, the store has no other choice. >> it has been lawlessness, nothing is stopping them from stealing. with the felony being so high , i have never seen anything like this, not even close. >> reporter: sam says the new policy is working, they haven't had any big incidents since the change, still he hopes one day soon it can all just get back to the way things used to be. >> i just wanted to be normal. >> sam told us the shop plans to keep escorting customers through for at least the next month, as long as theft is an issue. in san jose, a herring series of events laid out on friday after a worker on a bucket lift came into contact with the powerline and got a -- electrocuted. the injured worker was trapped for hours while first responders waited for pg&e to come and shut off power. >> there is also a fear of induction of power traveling from one line to another, that would be basically parallel to

the rescuers. >> eventually firefighters were able to use a lift truck to extract the worker, he was able to walk off the bucket lift at the end of this. san ramon valley schools are being sued over their handling of sexual assault allegations, the lawsuit said a teacher repeatedly sexually abused a high school girl 13 years ago. it alleges the district failed to act on multiple complaints at the time and the accused teacher continues to work in the school district. the attorney says there are at least two victims and they hope to see this man no longer having access to children in a professional setting . and too often, schools are letting suspected predators go without taking steps to protect children. it is worth noting, the same district settled a sexual abuse case with this same law firm in

from cbs news bay area, this is the morning edition. >> welcome back, thank you for joining us, i'm max darrow. overseas in ukraine, a

bipartisan funding bill for kyiv has passed in the senate but house republicans have refused to bring it up for a vote. cbs reports from western ukraine. >> reporter: just as the full-scale invasion enters its third year, ukraine suffers its worst loss in month. forcing a hasty retreat under fire , russian president, vladimir putin filmed taking a ride in a nuclear capable bomber. at a different photo op, the ukrainian president laying wreaths for the dead at a cemetery today, senate majority leader, chuck schumer and a visiting congressional delegation also paid their respects. >> the faces of the brave men and women who lost their lives. >> and pledged to push through the $60 billion aid package stalled in congress. but he

told us, there's no time to waste. >> what kind of impact is that going to have? >> they told us they need it in a matter of a short time, if it waits for a year, it is over. >> this may be the biggest challenge since the earliest dark days of the war. he says we are here protecting the country of ukraine. when unrelenting air strikes had military analysts predicting ukraine would fall in a matter of weeks and russian ground troops were slaughtering civilians in the suburbs of the capital. but with u.s. and allied support, ukraine fought back, forcing a russian retreat. but now starved of ammunition and facing a much larger enemy with each moment, ukraine is losing more ground and more lives. senator chuck schumer said president

zelenskyy told him if ukraine gets the aid package, they will win the war, if they don't, they will lose. with the tens of billions of dollars already invested here, that may be a hard sell back home. joining us now this morning as the consulate general of ukraine , thank you for joining us. >> since the first morning, since the war started, two years ago, the situation for ukraine is very difficult right now on the battlefield, it has become more difficult than it was to some extent because the lack of the necessary support for the west recently. but, we also have to remember that ukraine has done a lot over

the last two years, we have regained control of more than 50% of what russia captured, we have destroyed almost 30% of russia's fleet, and taken back control of our important cities, so we have work to be proud of but at the same time, to understand that without the necessary support, it will be more and more difficult for our soldiers on the battlefield. >> we can talk about support, president biden has committed billions of dollars to ukraine over the last two years since the full-scale invasion began . more could be coming but the a package that is currently in congress is kind of stuck with politics on capitol hill right now. every day that continues to be debated and kind of stuck in that gridlock. what does that mean for people in ukraine? >> it is very important for people in ukraine and for ukrainians in the bay area because that is the point which is being discussed when we meet

all the time and of course it'll be discussed when we have our rallies and meetings. so, every day with the delay of the bill in congress means more ukrainian lives are lost on the battlefield. plus, for ukrainian soldiers, it is much more difficult to fight if you don't have the ammunition. and as of right now, assumptions are that these soldiers should have about 40% of the artillery that they need. and we don't want to get deep into american politics, that is not for us to do that but we are proud, that ukrainian has bipartisan support and we need it in the future. but what we know is that if the bill, the supplemental bill is put into work in the house, it would be definitely supported. we are sure about that. it was already passed by the senate, so it just has to be put forth.

>> we have quite a ukrainian population here in the bay area and that has grown since this began point >> correct, it has grown. we still have 30,000 coming to california and about 6000 have come to the bay area. >> so today marking two years, since tragedy began, really. what is happening in the bay area to mark this date? >> there are a series of events. today there will be a rally from the city hall, around the city. and there will be a rally and events like movie screenings tonight. so we understand that life still goes on here and at the same time here in san francisco, it'll be the lunar new year parade. but, on the ukrainians here

want to keep the attention on ukraine at the same time, it is a very important thing after two years. we are not stopping because putin doesn't want to stop. we want people to remember what is happening in ukraine and why it is important. >> i want to ask one more question, but president biden announced than 500 new sanctions against russia stemming after alexei navalny's death , what is your take on that? >> president zelenskyy said we are grateful for every sanction and that is absolutely true but we believe these sanctions could have been done before and we all wish that they were more effective but effectiveness of sanctions depends not only on the united states and europe but other big countries of the world which unfortunately are not allowing russia to trade their oil with india and china and others. but all of the sanctions are important, it helps bring

victory closer. >> thank you for letting us know the situation and of course what is happening here locally and what people can do, we have a lot more on our website, kpix .com. unseasonably warm for us in the first half of the weekend at least, we are going to see a storm system that is further off the coast and more clouds on sunday. but, the odds of the clouds squeezing out any moisture during the daylight hours on sunday are going to remain lower than 20% across the bay area. a better chance of showers hold off until tomorrow night into monday morning. mix of upper 60s and lower 70s, a good 10 degrees above average for this time of year. a new york jury has ordered the longtime head of the national rifle association, wayne lapierre to repay the organization more than $4.3 million, the jury found wayne

the emotions she felt. >> my family, we have been waiting for this for 3 1/2 years now. nobody wishes that on anyone, i promise. i do not have any hate for her. my heart broke for her children. it wasn't easy, but it will bring me closer. >> the case generated international attention in part because grossman cofounded the grossman burn foundation, the legal team bows to appeal the verdict. a man who killed university student is now in custody . the suspect apparently did not know the victim and he likely acted alone. he faces several charges in connection to the killing of 22-year-old, lincoln riley. on thursday, riley's body was found after a friend told police she had not returned from a morning run. he

discovered her body in the woods near earlier -- a lake. they used video from campus security and other technology to connect him to the murder case. coming up, a plane runs into trouble and flips over in a bay near miami, but fortunately all the passengers are okay. plus, sharing untold stories, we will meet the jefferson award winner teaching bay area students about an ov "overflowing with ideas and energy." that's the san francisco chronicle endorsing democrat katie porter for senate over all other options. porter is "easily the most impressive candidate."

year. abundant sunshine as we head through the rest of today, futurecast shows the clouds starting to approach from the southwest tonight into sunday. but should stay dry through most of the daylight hours, the first batch of moisture showing up in green to evaporate on the way down. a chance of showers sunday night and better chance of moderate rain showers in the forecast on monday. that is not going to last very long, and they already come to an end as we head through monday evening. then we get that dry break again tuesday and wednesday. the first system less than a quarter inch across the board, so i don't think it is going to cause any major impacts. we are not done with the rain chances, light rain thursday and heavy rain on friday. the numbers take a big jump as we head into early march. the rain will continue into saturday. it is way too early for any confidence in these specific numbers that i want to show you the general pattern of the

heavy rain holding off until friday and saturday. a similar trend in the sierra. no snow this weekend, light accumulation monday and monday night. a couple inches. but as we hit the more moisture laden system into early march, that is when they will be adding up potentially feet of snow but again, it is too early. we do have an up-and-down pattern, temperatures up today and below average for the rest of the outlook. a good chance of showers on monday, thursday also light. heavy rain does loom in the forecast for the first day of march on friday. and below average temperatures becoming much more likely, early march is going to feel more like early january with temperatures stuck in the 50s. we will be here to keep you updated next week. marin county students are learning new details about black history, all thanks to a woman who has done decades of research. we have an update on a jefferson award winner we first profiled back in 2006.
