incident. one girl attacked by three others. and tonight, parents say school officials are not doing enough to keep students safe. >> i think that the students are afraid. i mean, the students are afraid to get involved. they're afraid to help their classmates. this is a long-term, years long problem where kids, boys and girls are getting attacked. >> unease on campus in novato. good evening. >> i'm julie hanan, and i'm mike mibach. tonight, sinaloa middle school held a meeting with dozens of parents and law enforcement after the latest act of violence on campus. new attend ktvu bailey o'carroll live tonight in novato. after speaking to parents who attended that meeting in bailey. a lot of frustration brewing there tonight. >> hey, mike and julie. yeah, there was a lot of parents at that meeting. it was standing room only now, unfortunately, the district's communication office did kick us out of that
10:02 pm
meeting just as we walked in before it even started. but we talked to a handful of parents outside the meeting, and their frustrations are growing. >> she's not happy to come to school some days because she feels like she doesn't know what's going to happen. and to be a sixth grader coming to school being scared is a is a big, big problem. >> according to parents of students at sinaloa middle school in novato, violence on campus is a growing issue. this is video sent to ktvu of a fight on campus this past friday. according to multiple parents, three students attacked a fellow female student in an email from the principal sent to parents, it said students were aware the day before that a fight would happen. this resulted in a very large stampede of our students, several hundred of them rushing around campus to seek out the fight to watch it happen. this mob grew in size as they ran through campus, causing some students to fall and literally be run over by others. in that same email, the principal went on to say, please know that severe consequences have been issued for the students capable of causing physical harm to the other student. but all parents
10:03 pm
we spoke to say this is far from the only incident of violence on campus this school year and beyond. i had a violent incident with a boy who attacked my daughter that was a grade above her. >> and honestly, from my perspective, the school didn't even deal with it at all. they brushed it under the rug. this was three years ago, and so for three years i've been watching systemic violence as for what's being done to address the problem, well, parents say not much. this is a long term, years long problem where kids, boys and girls are getting attacked. a fight is one thing. when someone's attacked by a group of people, it needs to be dealt with a certain way. and i feel like the schools turned their head to it and they've they've minimized it, minimizing violence is a big problem. >> our ktvu crew was asked to leave the meeting before it started by novato school district's communications staff, but not told why. we could not listen in to the discussion on a public school campus. parents outside told us they blame the administration for the upward trend in violence on campus, and after the meeting, parents said they felt just as frustrated as
10:04 pm
when they walked in. >> i feel like the school is trying to address the issue in a way that's not direct, so they don't want to make a lot of admissions. they're trying to avoid saying a lot of things. i believe they care, but i believe they're carrying a lot more about their reputation. >> now, parents inside that meeting told us that they admit that the administration would only take questions written down on index cards. they said the district officials who were up there talking would then filter those questions, only answering the ones that they handpicked. out of that stack of questions, they said only about a third of those questions appeared to have been answered. now, law enforcement, who was at the meeting told us that they plan on releasing a statement tomorrow. but a lot of parents coming out of that meeting tonight telling us that they have more questions than answers at this point, though, they say just a start to that conversation is of course, a good thing tonight. julie, back to you. yeah. >> bailey did anyone coming out of that meeting tonight talk about the girls specifically involved, especially the one who
10:05 pm
was attacked? do we know how she's doing? and they said there was going to be consequences to those involved. do we know if there's any suspensions involved with this? >> the consequences? not exactly clear at this point. i did speak to somebody at the meeting who says they know that girl or family friends with that girl. they say she is doing okay now. exactly what okay means or the extent of the injuries she suffered. did she suffer any still unknown? but they say at this point the good news is that girl, of course, who was attacked doing okay tonight. >> all right. and more to come as we learn more tomorrow. bailey o'carroll reporting live in novato. thanks, bailey. well, tonight uc santa cruz says it will go to remote instruction tomorrow and thursday due to a campus strike that has been going on now for a week. this afternoon, uc santa cruz officials called on the demonstrators to leave the main entrance and the west entrance roadways. they say the protest is preventing employees and students from getting onto campus and blocking the child care center. you can see the

after he suffered a six figure loss during a break in this month. >> ktvu betty yu joins us live tonight from san francisco with how dare fashion is now trying to bounce back after just the latest of several thefts here? betty >> that's right, that's right. mike now, the owner, ben wong, says that he started this business 17 years ago and never experienced a break-in of this magnitude. i want to show you this. this is how he believes the thieves made their way inside. it appears that they cut into the plywood of this vacant space in the market street building that they share. >> you know, there was a hole here and all these, you know, these boards were all broken. >> owner of dare fashion, ben wong says this is the hole he believes thieves emerged from after breaking into the building earlier this month. he discovered it on the second floor, not far from his office. from there, he said, the crooks smashed their way into his company's space, wiping out
10:32 pm
$300,000 worth of electronics and his best selling items, including a thousand necklaces and 1200 costumes. this was all that was left after thieves wiped out his most popular items. he had conveniently packed them into rolling bags that he had prepared to sell at a booth at the fourth gathering, a world goth day celebration in alameda. >> it makes me sad to look at this because it's kind of the end of an era. >> dare fashion, which sells gothic victorian, renaissance and steampunk clothes. online manufacturers all products in san francisco and oakland. he runs the business with two other employees, and i just was feeling super duper overwhelmed. >> and then i used this technique that that's helped me get through some other things where i said, okay, i'm going to give myself a set amount of time. in this case, i said 15 minutes to really feel sorry for myself. and then start to make a plan. >> wong said thieves have broken into the building five times over the last three years. >> i don't know what the future
10:33 pm
holds for my company. i'm pretty determined to try to stay if i can. >> the longtime san francisco resident said he was encouraged by the turnout and positive responses he received from shoppers at the goth day festival, where he sold remaining merchandise following the burglary. wong has since set up a gofundme page to help dare fashion start over. >> i'm an optimist, i really do believe i'm pretty good at business, and i can kind of see opportunities when they're there and then i'm not afraid to work hard. >> and ben says that he also plans to start a podcast where he can share how he navigates tough times and losses and still maintains a positive outlook and tries to move forward. >> mike and betty, what about insurance? does dare fashion have a policy that can help them get back on their feet here? >> well, ben said that that's been a huge lesson for him in all of this. he learned that he didn't purchase the right kind of insurance. he has general
10:34 pm
liability insurance. and that unfortunately does not cover theft, burglary or property damage. >> all right. betty yu live tonight in san francisco. betty, thank you for that. staying in the city. attorneys for david depape, the man convicted of attacking former house speaker nancy pelosi's husband with a hammer, had appearances in two courtrooms today in federal court to face the judge who sentenced him on may 17th to 30 years in prison. and that original sentencing hearing, he was not given the opportunity to speak in his own defense. depape addressed the court today, saying about paul pelosi, quote, i never meant to hurt him and i feel horribly wrong for hurting mister pelosi. end quote. the judge said that his defense team does have the right to appeal. >> they forgot to go through that formality and everybody agreed it was a mistake. so now it's been corrected. so yes, it creates a point of appeal, but it's not going to be successful because what an appellate court will do is they will say, yes, it was an error, but it was
10:35 pm
corrected. >> depape also had a hearing on whether his state trial would proceed. his defense team argued that he cannot be prosecuted in two courts for the same crime. the judge deferred making a ruling so the state case will get underway tomorrow, an effort to clear scott peterson's name could move forward tomorrow. >> he is set to appear virtually in a san mateo county courtroom from the prison where he is serving a life sentence. in 2002, a jury convicted peterson of murdering his wife laci and their unborn son. now he is getting help from a team of lawyers with the la innocence project. they are requesting requesting dna testing for items gathered during the original murder investigation. prosecutors say there's no need for dna testing because other evidence convicted peterson, a former pittsburgh police officer , is now facing a new lawsuit two years after shooting and injuring a man armed with a knife. >> as ktvu henry lee reports tonight, that man says he was suffering a mental health crisis
10:36 pm
and that police did not do enough to de-escalate the situation. >> i'm just taking it one day at a time. >> ashton porter says he's lucky to be alive after he was flushed out of a hotel room with tear gas and then shot and wounded by pittsburgh police during a challenging time in his life. >> police should just have a little more compassion with someone that's going through a mental health crisis, because that's not how that person should be defined. it happened in 2022, when porter was too scared to leave a room at the hampton inn. >> his attorneys released edited video from police body cam footage. >> she just is refusing to open the door or doesn't want to have a conversation. >> a mental health team showed up to de-escalate the situation, but his family says police sent them away. i promise you, my guys will not lay a finger on you. >> you're not going to get hurt. >> but instead, police stepped up the pressure and it's about to get a whole lot worse for you, man. >> at any point in time, you want to listen to what i've been trying to tell you. we're going to make sure that you come out and everything's safe. >> officers used a battering ram, pepper spray and tear gas to force porter out of the room.
10:37 pm
and just moments after porter left his room with his hands up, an officer shot and wounded him. police said porter had a knife and charged at them. why did the police turn this from being a mental health wellness call into what looks like a military operation? on tuesday, attorney don pointer filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city of pittsburgh, saying police failed to give porter time and distance after police were called to help asking for help, but was met with harm, was met with bullets. >> police who, if you will see things as if they're hammers, saw mr. porter as a nail. >> the officer who shot porter, ernesto mejia orozco, resigned from pittsburgh police that same year. he's also facing federal charges that he paid someone to take online courses for him so that he could boost his pay. he's also been charged by the contra costa da with accepting bribes, including tequila, to drop traffic tickets. it's surely is close to the most stark example of a police department that is acting unhinged. >> what happened was, and just
10:38 pm
nothing was okay about it. >> natalia metz is one of porter's six children. i felt like it was our fault that we called the police and we shouldn't have. >> i'm just grateful that he is here. i just wish there. who do we call on when the police is not doing the right thing? >> the city of pittsburgh has not responded to this lawsuit in court. the former top cop in pittsburgh, who is now interim chief in antioch, declined to comment. now, i've learned that the former officer involved is expected to change his plea next month to both the federal online college scheme as well as the state bribery case in pittsburgh. henry lee ktvu, fox two news. >> caltrans will be closing a section of 19th avenue in san francisco starting tomorrow to the closure will run intoepairs. northbound lanes across a three block stretch between sloat and taraval. creil be working from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m, when all lanes will reopen. that closure is expected to last through this friday. the 31st and this week's closure is part of a more extensive repaving project that

10:52 pm
is, as the days get longer, this thing recedes to the north, and as the days get shorter, the jet stream comes towards the south. right. and that's towards the winter. and that's why it rains. and in the summer it doesn't rain. in the winter it rains. it's pretty simple. weather is all about hot and cold. just so you know. it's basically a thermodynamic thing. hot air rises, cold air sinks. you take that as far as you want. you get temperature gradients, you get pressure gradients, temperature gradients, creating pressure gradients. it's awesome. so whether hot and cold is the deal and you got what drives it, as we look at the weather is the cold regions to the north and the heat to the equator. it's a heat engine, right? all the heat from the equator wants to go north and the cold air from the. and it just gets going and then the earth spins and you get coriolis effect and you get the jet stream blowing from west to east in the northern hemisphere, from east to west in the southern hemisphere. it's a beautiful thing actually, if you've studied it at all, it's not even just google it or pull up a good geology or geography book. it'll it'll show you and talk about it. but it's just it's a beautiful kind of dance that the, the, the world does.
10:53 pm
