alleged to because he has not been convicted in state court despite being convicted in federal court for the attack because the charges are not the same in federal court. he was charged and convicted for a 10 to kidnapping of a federal official as well as an attack on the immediate member of a federal official that being nancy pelosi. but as far as the state charges, they will have to prove that state charges include attempted murder, assault as well as burglary. the trial should last about 3 weeks. back to you. 904, is the time. >> and we heard live this morning about the scary moments at an elementary school where students and teachers in san bruno. >> ended up having it. she a painful red this road because of something that was in the air. yeah. we've got kron four's. >> michael thomas standing by out at that school to explain what exactly happened to michael.

>> good morning. everyone will essentially the wind blew over gas and pepper spray that got into the eyes of about 2 dozen students during the after school hours. and we've got video up on your screen so i can break it all down. it happened yesterday at around 3 to 4 o'clock or so. and there was a total of 20 students that were involved and one teacher, they started getting reports of them having burning sensations in their eyes, their nose and their throat. and i spoke with one girl who says it got in her throat and she essentially couldn't stop coughing. so at that point, the principal was still here on staff trying to figure out exactly what happened. and, you know, ryan was happening so they eventually realized it was coming from next door from the san francisco sheriff's office jail property. the sheriff's office was hosting a routine tactical training class inside the jail, which is where they've done it for the last 20 years. so how the chemicals get outside? well, take a listen to he principal. had to say. the room was contained to win the open the doors. >> of that smell or some of

the came out and there was a strong breeze yesterday and this must have been right in the path of it. >> my child had like a stinging in the eyes, a little nausea, but it went away pretty quickly. >> that second, and that was apparent as you heard his son was involved in that. he went on to tell me that after he actually heard that his son was involved in the school, even had an in-person meeting in the principal. did talk a little bit about that with us as well. but back out here live, all of those students were checked out by medical personnel. and at some point they were given the okay to be released to parents and they went home. they say as of this morning they haven't gotten any information regarding if anybody else had more complications. so as of what we know now, all of the students are fine. the sheriff's office also did put out this statement. it's up on your screen and you can telling us essentially that, you know, they do apologize for this to say that these trainings are critical to law enforcement because they allow peace officers to test the safety of equipment of potential leaks and they

provide staff with hands-on experience with chemical agents, preparing them both physically and mentally for real life situations. and again, they go on to apologize. back out here. live everything has been paused when it comes to those tactical training classes. so as we get more information, we'll continue to keep you updated. and in the 10 o'clock hour you'll hear that young girl who says she got it in her throat. that's the very latest here in san bruno. and michael thomas story. james, we'll send it back to does show you how strong pepper spray is. i think it like let's say you're spraying. was a defense and it goes right? absolutely. >> yeah. and to give you perspective of how far the school and the jail is, it's probably i would i mean, i could see it from here. there's a big trees. you can see it. but i would say maybe about like 100 feet or so. maybe 200 feet. so if it blew that far and it still affected the kids, just give you an idea of how strong it incredible. okay. michael, thank you very much. >> 908, is the time. let's go to the south bay now where a man is in custody in san jose after police say he smash the

windows of a baskin robbins, sending glass flying down on the customer's yeah. and the child was right against the window when it happened. this happened last month. but just recently, an arrest was made. concorde jet moment has more. >> let's set the scene here for a moment. it is springtime in east side. san jose. the temperatures are warming up and you want to escape the heat. so you and your child head to baskin robbins. and once you do head to this baskin-robbins, you head inside, you wait for the ice cream when all of a sudden boom, a man runs up seemingly randomly breaks the glass, sending shards of it. flying on to you and your kid. you both go running has neighbors hare quite concerned over the safety here and that has police looking for those victims. shocking surveillance camera video from last month depicts the attack. you see that child sitting down inside the baskin robbins off a born square and then glasgow's flying sending shards of glass towards that child. you can see them and they're screaming. that's horrible. happened to like, like i said, i come with my my nephew, my knees in something like that happen. it will be by scary living rivera lives in this

neighborhood off capitol expressway and says this baskin robbins to is a family staple. well, it not not so good because we come to relax and have a time in nearly a month since that incident, san jose finally announced they arrested the suspect identified as pay ms farhi. >> he's booked into county jail and charged with child abuse and assault with a deadly weapon. >> and while police haven't shared much info about the suspect, mandeep singh who works the liquor store next door says he's familiar with. i know is that guy cars use becomes almost or i like shopper and says the last time as far was here, it was about a week ago and has bought beer here for the last 9 months. >> he says crime in the area has been increasing the need to fix them. i think that and this was made possible because we have a partnership. the district attorney's office. meantime, san jose police say while as far awaits his day in court, they want to make right with the victims at the heart of the incident. i don't really want full closure for

this case in san jose. jack moment. kron 4 news. >> it's 9.10, right now. and 2 people are without a home this morning because of a fire at their house in los gatos. it broke out yesterday and the flames were first coming from the garage. fire department got there. they spread to the attic. they knocked it down. pretty clip quickly. as you can see, it demolished the garage and investigators got and they think the blaze started because of an electrical failure in the garage. but i he's a car's demolished, but at least nobody is >> we're going to take a break here. 9.10, still ahead on the kron. 4 morning news, a housing project for farmworkers in half moon bay is moving forward. more on that. well, as alameda county's district attorney is suing several home insurance companies. tell you why she's claiming their defrauding customers. and we're going hear from san francisco mayor london breed and the other candidates hoping to have that job come next year. >> and we are looking at a day that is going to be bringing with it a slightly cooler afternoon 60's 70's to

>> my 13 right now talking about the weather and also what everybody has planned. maybe if it's a long weekend for you from wild that's right. if you're going away staying at home, the weather's going to be on your john, yet looking good. we're definitely cooling things down from yesterday, which was the warmest day that we will have had in this forecast today. still warm. but you can see a little bit of that fog scooting in over the san mateo coastline. that is a sign of some of that cooler ocean air that's starting to slip back in bigger pattern. also resulting in some changes, high pressure. ridge still remaining offshore, as we've been saying for well, over a week now, but are storm tracks remain to the north up in the

pacific northwest will dive in a little bit closer. our direction this weekend resulting in that cool down, but also a chance of a few sprinkles towards friday night into saturday, mostly up in the sierra. if you happen to be heading up into the mountains over the holiday weekend, you can see those little spots of green popping there. nothing major, but also just don't be surprised by that cooler. slightly cloudier and potentially brief sprinkle that we could see into your holiday weekend in the bay area. we're starting to see that signs of a cool down today. still holding up those 60's at the coast making for a pleasant day for coastal areas. a lot of 70's to low 80's elsewhere. that range of 80's cooler than yesterday's san jose barely making it to 80 degrees. fremont at 75 dublin at 76 concord and walnut creek. be in the low 80's. antioch, in vacaville, our warmest spots in the mid 80's today. tomorrow's temperatures will dip a little further and 70's inland will start come saturday. only be 60's regardless of if you're along the bayshore inland. our

coolest day of the forecast memorial day on monday looks nice with some upper 70's that the warmest right now. all right, john, thank you for that. still busy in the 9 o'clock hour, especially on highways. >> seeing a whole lot of red still. 54 minutes traveling at 1, 0, one. 85 to menlo park. now to 80 82 might be a good option for you right now. we're still waiting for those to keep going down. 14 minutes into the city. no accidents on your bridges. the senate hilbert about 15 minutes, rich december filbert and golden gate bridge. no hazards to stop you. there. your little slow but not terrible delays at this time. still on the let's check on 80 clocking up towards the maze. but 32 minutes, we started off the morning with an accident there. that's been clear. but since then, we've seen residual delays darya. james, back to you. >> all right. time to talk winners and losers on wall street with financial expert rob black. joining us this morning on this wednesday. as we're inching closer to the memorial day rob, what are you seeing out there?

>> lot of nothing ultimately this morning we've got a weak consumer readout of target target's not quite as cheap as walmart and perception nor do they have the massive discounts of costco. so consumers are struggling. they can't really afford to pay for fast-food. it's 4 times as expensive as he did come. it's a lot of people are going to walmart. great now. stocks are record highs. the fed is going to come out with some notes later k probably no big impact. and those are your big business stories of the big for it in videos come out with numbers tonight. that will be big for got okay. well, big for me is the fact that wendy's is trying to undercut mcdonald's with >> are we beginning the week we talked about but target and wal-mart doing their low price. worst thing. we see that on the fast food front, too. picked up the theme that i was wanting me to pick up value. meals basically means the consumer and the economy is struggling and slowing down. when i can up more debt. >> so mcdonald's franchisees are complaining because they

only have about 10% margins and they have to take a 30% cut to do a value meal which might have chicken nuggets, fries and a coca-cola koch was going to pay for a lot of the advertising for that because mcdonald's is an early kind of mean franchisees halfway bite today, wendy's announced in month in sandwich. eggs, bacon, cheese some like mcmuffin and make reference prieto's coming back instead bacon, which is more expensive than chicken. sausage is time $3 for breakfast. $5 for lunch. you start to see where the consumer is going. yeah, absolutely. going where the prices are a little bit cheaper before we get to our action first mate story have you seen this. comcast plans. speaking of. >> saving money, 50 bucks, a sort of streaming bundle. what's that about? >> yeah, this is going to be probably the best bundle out there. we went from cable bundles to individual a streaming channels. they started getting more expensive comcast is going bundle together. what's called super streamer. you can get peacock,

which is going to get news and sport. and late night tv, apple tv, which is kind of the hbo now it's got the best television shows on it. and you also get netflix with that. this will create less churn for all 3 of them. it will let netflix bill there. ad business will have a apple built. their subscription business could be about 15 bucks a month which sounds like a screaming the deal. could all this put together would be about $30. >> okay. all right. well, we did a story earlier this morning about california's average home sale prices actually taking up above 900,000, but home sales, as i see here actually slipped unexpectedly last month would be read into that. >> home sales slipped. but home prices didn't. that's important note home sales month to month down 1.9% year over year down 1.9% sales were supposed to increase because it's that time of year there's about a 3 and a half months supply which still is really in the seller's favor. we need

to get plant about 6 month. there's not a lot of supply. there's not going to be a lot of supply more than this. james, because interest rates are so low. i don't want to and that's the sentiment of a lot of americans out that the average none of the median home was $407,600. well below the california home. but that's a 5.7% year-over-year. you of no million dollar homes are seeing a big push, an inventory and million dollar. plus, homes are seen a big push in sales. the tuna 40% more supply month over month in 40% sales month over month. so pretty good numbers out year over year for the sales. okay. but pretty good if your million dollar plus. under that, there's nothing moving it's tough out there for those looking to buy a home to say about the price is just get further and further out of reach. anyway, we'll keep talking about that over the course of the year this morning on are tech smart segment. we had rich demuro talking about how >> microsoft is putting out a new laptop computer with a i built in everybody's getting in on this. and i amazon with

alexa, no different time. >> yeah. the real killer app for ai is going to be on this thing down the road, phone out pc that they'll be able to recall smear memories. it will be a bit like what did you i talk about last month. if you want to recall that can't go back in time, but you'll also be able upside your photos and make them up better. but what we're seeing today is amazon. it's an election is going to more ai conversational that go to a subscription model. it sold over 500 million of these devices. amazon alexa's kind of stuff. apple series little to basic for to simple tasks. what's the sportscore? what's the weather turn on the raw black show. things like that. but they're going to try to amazon's go try to make amazon's alexa more conversational, set up a subscription. you won't get it for free with prime openai has got a great conversational chat bot which we saw this week with scarlet johansen's voice. we also google scott, one in the works rolling out slowly so it's just about

smoke-free workplaces. so we'll see if they have some solution for that. in the meantime, the biden administration now set to release 1 million barrels of gas in an effort to lower gas prices northeast reserve established after superstorm sandy. again, this is hopefully to get gas prices down for the summer. according to the energy department, the release will create a competitive bidding process to ensure that gas can flow into local retailers. ahead of the july 4th holiday and sold at competitive prices. we struggle with that here in california. >> it's 9.26. and pixar studios. they just cut 14% of their workforce in the last are going to affect about 175 employees at there and reveal animation studio. apparently the reports say these job cuts will allow pixar to shift its focus back to projects that are meant for theatrical rather than streaming release. >> all right. we're going to take a break at 9.27. up next on the kron. 4 morning news. the bay area known for its high rent prices. but that's
