4:35 am
corrected. >> depapes defense is arguing he should not be prosecuted in two separate courts for the same crimes and charges. ten members of congress are calling for hearings into abuses at the federal women's prison in dublin. >> prisons can be run in a way that are respectful of the process. obviously but when they develop these cultures, there's lots of history that shows it's very hard to change it and people won't be truthful because if they are truthful, unfortunately they'll be held to account. so we have to get to that point. >> it has been six weeks since the bureau of prisons announced the shutdown of fci dublin. that happened just after a special master was appointed to oversee compliance with federal law in response to a rampant culture of sexual sexual abuse at the prison, a settlement is expected in dozens of sex abuse cases filed by women against more than 30 correctional officers at the now closed federal prison in

4:38 am
have been issued for students culpable of causing physical harm to the other student. but all parents 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. >> 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. minimalizing violence is a big problem. >> our ktvu crew was asked to leave the meeting before it started by novato school district's communication staff. 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 when they walked in. >> i believe they care, but i believe they're carrying a lot more about their reputation. >> parents inside the meeting
4:39 am

4:41 am
48. we do get clear skies today. looks good. lots of sunshine are cool from the last couple of days. kicks out quick little pop on the temps warmer 80s inland. there could be a few if we get enough of a northerly breeze tomorrow near 90, but only a few and then it will come right back down and the interesting is over. the mountains could be a few isolated cells, but watch what happens. they're right there in the monday, maybe a little rain on the north coast there. so again, with a couple of days warmer then it cools right back down. that's the theme here. going into early next week and early june. warmer wednesday, sunny and warmer there in town today a little breeze. afternoon 6070s to a few near 80. doesn't take much this time of year and we'll have warmer temps on thursday then cooler friday. pam. >> thank you steve. >> a san francisco business is now out of hundreds of thousands of dollars after a devastating theft. the owner shows us how the thieves managed to break in and a section of a busy street in san francisco will soon be closed for repairs. we have what commuters need to know

4:51 am
figure out how to respond to rising sea levels at stinson beach. a new report looks at more than two dozen options for adaptation, such as levees and protective dunes. this comes after a study was released last year showing stinson beach could have serious problems with sea level rise if no action is taken. the marin community development agency will hold a webinar june 17th to go over the findings. in the report. another new study shows how california's most active wildfire seasons have impacted lakes across the state. the uc davis study looked at three of the state's largest wildfire seasons, 2018, 2020 and 2021. each in each of those years, smoke was persistent and widespread, and in some cases, lakes experienced about a month of high density smoke conditions. >> main. an obvious effect was that smoke is essentially dimming the lights, so it's blocking, on average, about 20% of the solar radiation hitting the lake surface. wildfires have been increasing around the world. they generate more and more smoke, but what we realized
4:52 am
was that we don't actually know what the smoke does to the ecosystems. >> the study suggests that smoke from large fires can lead to lower water temperatures and decreased oxygen for wildlife in the water. however, scientists also say more research needs to be done before drawing any long term conclusions. all right. 451 is the time steve paulson has our forecast. what do we need to know? >> warmer. okay warmer weather, today and tomorrow. then we'll get back into a cooler pattern. that's the way it's been all for all the way back to april. here a couple of days warmer and then favors. cool. if you are going to the giants game today, it can be hot and a day game, especially if you're sitting in the sun. if you're in the shade, it's not bad, but i'm going upper 60s to 70. it will be sunny and warm there a little bit of a north northwesterly breeze. it's clear for us. could be a few high clouds on the north coast, but santa rosa, san francisco, concord, san jose, up we go, 86, 70, 86 and 81 degrees in the forecast. highs 50s for
4:53 am
most. i mean, there's a couple upper 41 low 60 but mainly 50s. boulder creek felton though at 49 hollister's dipped a 44 san martin and morgan hill in the 40s and then 50s low 50s around santa clara, saratoga, campbell, socal, santa cruz and aptos. everyone's kind of close, a little bit of a breeze. northwest. that's the north side at mount tamalpais, at northwest at 35, due west in the city, though, and there's west southwest for most out to the delta. it's not strong, but it's kind of variable. but half moon bay north, gusting to 21. sfo is a west, hayward has a south livermore in san jose trying to show a little north. so i think in time it'll start to turn more northwesterly or northerly for most 30s at truckee, 42 south lake tahoe, 57 in santa barbara at one for los angeles. add one more for san diego, 57 5859 looks good today. there's only a few patches of fog there, so the cool we had is kicked out for two days warmer 80s inland and then near 90 for a few if you're well inland. and then it comes right back down on friday and
4:54 am
especially on saturday. could be interesting. up on the north coast. look at that, another system looks like it wants to clip us on monday here. that would bring more cool weather. so warmer wednesday, mainly clear in the morning, sunny and warmer. the breeze will probably turn a little more northerly, which equals 6070s and 80s tomorrow. a few locations could flirt with near 90, but then i think it comes back down friday and it really comes down saturday. >> thank you steve, a man says he is lucky to be alive after an encounter with police. the legal action he's now taking two years later and a celebrity otter is back off the coast of santa cruz . yoremember these these videos. what we know about her return

5:03 am
in our newsroom now breaking down what the lawyers will be arguing in the courtroom today. good morning jen. lots to it dave, good morning to you. >> well, today's hearing is the second of three on the agenda for the la innocence project. this is where lawyers defending peterson say dna testing of evidence never done before needs to be done, because it could prove two major theories in the case. one, that laci was alive beyond when scott was convicted of killing her, and two, that she was possibly abducted and killed by someone else. attorneys say they're taking these three hearings to gather enough of an argument to ask the court for a new trial. that's the goal later down the line, specifically today, they're calling for dna testing and retesting of a few items. most notably, they want to test a mattress found inside a van spotted across the street from the peterson's modesto home. that van is accused of being part of a home burglary of peterson's neighbors. la ip lawyers say the grounds of their argument come from a number of witnesses who say they saw laci
5:04 am
walking her dog and even saw her interacting with some of those accused burglars, one witness saying on the record, he saw the burglars push a pregnant woman into the van. the lawyers say that witness called in the crime, but it was never investigated enough. they argue police and investigators never brought those witnesses in for questioning. past dna testing on that van did find some human dna, but these attorneys are asking new testing reveal the identity of who that dna belongs to. in its motion, the la ip wrote, quote, the results of the requested dna testing could help identify the actual perpetrator of the crimes for which scott peterson was convicted, and or provide leads to other suspects. days after lacey's appearance, modesto police cleared the two suspected burglars of having any involvement in this case. prosecutors. those trying to keep peterson in prison say this is all or all these points brought up by the la ip are all hearsay and all of their
5:05 am
evidence has already been convicted, or rather, have already convicted, peterson, arguing that many people in the neighborhood have also been seen walking their dogs. who could fit the description of laci of that day. today's hearing in redwood city is expected to start around 9 a.m. we do expect a judge to make a final ruling on if that dna testing will be set to happen. we're live this morning in the newsroom. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> thank you, james. an east bay man accuses pittsburgh police of excessive force ashton porter was staying at the hampton inn in 2022 when he says he suffered a mental health crisis and he was too scared to leave. motel staff then called police. porter's federal lawsuit states there was a prolonged interaction where officers used battering rams, pepper spray and tear gas to try to get him out of the room. porter was also shot twice by police. >> 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.
5:06 am
>> 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. >> porter says just as he was leaving the motel room with his hands up, an officer shot him. police say porter had a knife and charged at them. now the officer who opened fire, ernesto mejia orozco resir ed from pittsburg police. that same year, charges against him in this particular case were dropped. however, next month, he's expected to plead guilty to local bribery charges and to federal charges of paying someone to take online classes for him so that he could increase his pay. >> our time is now. 506a band in the east bay is desperately searching for its musical equipment after its tour van was stolen in oakland last week. the rock group wander says their van was stolen the night of may 22nd from an apartment garage on 12th street in oakland and at the time the wander was loaning the

5:10 am
room for them. >> the doctor was able to secure a return after four weeks in gaza, seemingly just in time, she says on her way back home, there was an airstrike right near the clinic where she had been working. >> our time now, 509 today and tomorrow, all classes at uc santa cruz will be online because of a campus strike. now, this strike has lasted for a week now. yesterday the protesters blocked the entrances to the campus, filling the streets with tents and dumping rocks and debris and paint onto the pavement. union academic workers say they're angry about how university leaders have responded to pro-palestinian protests. now the strike has spread to other uc campuses as well. about 12,000 union employees are walking picket lines at uc santa cruz, uc davis and ucla. >> hard decision to go on strike and to do it. you know, like like you said, like at this moment when we're all preparing to, you know, i'm supposed to

5:49 am
been increasing around the world. they generate more and more smoke, but what we realized was that we don't actually know what the smoke does to the ecosystems. >> the study suggests that smoke from large fires can lead to lower water temperatures and decreased oxygen for wildlife in the water. however, scientists also say more research needs to be done before drawing any long term conclusions. >> all right, pam, time is 548 and sal is back. and there are still major problems down in san jose, right? >> that's right. a truck carrying 40,000 pounds of strawberries flipped over on the ramp from northbound 101 to northbound 880. the problem is that whole interchange is blocked because they need the other ramp from 880 to 101 to work on the problem, and that is causing a delay, and it's going to get worse as the morning goes on. the san jose commute doesn't get going until later, and right now you can easily take 280 instead. so just give yourself
5:50 am
plenty of extra time. the rest of the commute looks okay. the bay bridge toll plaza is already backed up this morning, all the way out to the maze. no problems on the bridge, but we have that early commute going queuing up to get into san francisco at, 549. steve, have i told you lately that you are great at your job? >> i sent you that check, so i owed you money. i know that, yes, sir. thank you sir, i appreciate that. all right. we'll take a look in the city now. i'm going 70 for the giants game today, but officially we're going 68. you can do three or 4 or 5. six forecasts in the city, 68, 52w average, 6552. the record 93 1975, and a 46 way back again way back in 1893 for the city. city's been on the cool side have been below. well, this will be one of the today and tomorrow. i think they'll go above. and after that, they'll come back down warmer inland, especially today. and more for sure tomorrow. it's been a cool
5:51 am
pattern. 76, 78 today we'll go 85 concord. it depends. if you're at buchanan, it might be warmer. if you're in pleasant hill or walnut creek, it'll probably be closer to 84 or 85, but it'll be warming up 40s for a few petaluma's in there. menlo park's in there. there's only a couple napa airport now. kelseyville, of course, but a lot of 50s on the temps, although hollister down to a cool 4349 now santa clara scotts valley, felton, boulder creek and they're low 50s. so cal, santa cruz and aptos trying to get its act. oakland airport has a little east wind. santa rosa has a little north wind that's at the airport. that's why they're warmer there already, which is why they'll probably push the upper 80s today. novato, north west, southwest though napa airport and fairfield. so it's variable, but it is turning more northerly. half moon bay is already there as well. and so i think over the course of the next day or two, we'll see more of a north northeasterly breeze. and then it comes right back down. so the cool pattern we've had will give way to warmer temps today and tomorrow. could be a few near 90. tomorrow again, it has to be well inland. won't be over by
5:52 am
the coast or the bay or anything like that. cooler friday for sure. saturday and maybe another little system sweeping in for some rain north that would be on monday. so the pattern will comes in. everything's transitory, warmer wednesday, sunny and warmer and only a few patches of fog. san mateo coast down to santa cruz. so it's on borrowed time. 60s 70s and 80s. tomorrow will be warmer, a little cooler. friday big cool down saturday. >> all right, steve, thank you. time's 551. an election in berkeley to replace a city council member who abruptly resigned from her seat coming up at 6:00. who leads in the early vote count in berkeley's second special election of the year. >> and do you remember that aggressive otter? well, she's back off the coast of santa cruz. we'll tell you what we know about her return

6:01 am
the warm feeling, that's for sure. everyone will get in on some warmth, except maybe parts of the coast which will stay in the 60s. but lots of sunshine today and starting to warm up. 60s, 70s and 80s san jose front and center. better, worse. same what? >> so yeah, it's still going to be blocked. that ramp from northbound 101 to northbound 880 in san jose. and that's because of a truck that overturned on that ramp. so if you're driving on 101, even if you don't want to use the 880 ramp, there's going to be a backup. now that's stretching out. so give yourself plenty of time. use 280 as an alternate route, 280 from our air traffic camera. looks pretty good with no major issues. san mateo bridge also looks good heading out west. there have been no major issues there, and at the bay bridge, we already have kind of a bigger backup here at the toll plaza 601. let's get back to the headlines. >> all right. thank you. sal. a court hearing will be held in san mateo county today as
6:02 am
convicted killer scott peterson seeks a new trial. attorneys with the la innocence project are asking a judge for new dna testing that may raise questions about when laci peterson and their unborn child were murdered. ktvu s james torres is in studio, breaking down what lawyers are trying to argue in the courtroom this morning. james. >> good morning pam. well today's hearing is the second of three on the agenda for the la innocence project, but it could be the most crucial in the attempt to try and earn a new trial. we expect peterson to appear in court via zoom call. this is where lawyers defending peterson say dna testing of evidence never done before needs to be done because it could prove two major theories in the case the first, that laci was actually alive beyond when scott was convicted of killing her, and the second, she was possibly abducted and killed by someone else. they're calling for dna testing and retesting of a few items. most notably, they want to see testing on a mattress found inside a burned van spotted across the street from
6:03 am
the peterson's modesto home. that van may have been part of a home burglary of peterson's neighbors, la ip lawyers say the grounds of their argument come from a number of witnesses who say they saw laci walking her dog and even saw her possibly interacting with those burglars, one witness going as far saying on the record that he saw the burglars push a pregnant woman into that van. the lawyers say that witness called in the crime , but it was never investigated enough. they also argued detectives either didn't do enough to vet the witness accounts or just flat out ignored them. passed dna testing on that van. did find some human dna, but these attorneys are asking. new testing revealed the identity of who that dna belongs to. in its motion, the la ip wrote the results of the requested dna testing could help identify the actual perpetrators of the crimes for which scott peterson was convicted and or provide leads to other suspects. days after lacey's
6:04 am
disappearance, modesto police cleared the suspected burglars of having any involvement in this case. prosecutors say that they are trying to keep peterson in prison, and they say that all of this, all of these points rather brought up by the la ip, are hearsay. and all the evidence they did bring up was enough to win them a conviction. they argue many people in the neighborhood have been seen walking their dogs who could easily fit lacey's description. today's hearing in redwood city is expected to start around 9:00 this morning. a judge ruling is expected today. a no to dna testing could be a dagger to the lips argument, but a yes to the testing could be a huge step forward and asking for a new trial. pam >> all right. thank you, james. we'll stay on top of this story. certainly one of the big stories of the day, a former member of the berkeley rent board commission is leading a race for city council. it is a special election for the council seat that covers downtown and central parts of berkeley. igor tregub is ahead with 31% of the vote in
6:05 am
a close four person race. the winner finishes out the term of kate harrison, who resigned in january and is now running for berkeley mayor. this is berkeley's second special election for its city council in just about a month. >> our time now, 604, in santa rosa, a man accused of making and trafficking weapons has been arrested after a month long police investigation. a search warrant was carried out at the home of 44 year-old bond kim yesterday, and during the search, detectives say they found more than a dozen guns, 3d printers, drugs and more. detectives say they were first tipped off after intercepting a gun part that the suspect allegedly tried to mail from china. kim is now facing more than 30 different charges of possession. oakland is encouraging kia and hyundai owners to take advantage of a new settlement over car thefts, the lawsuit alleged. >> the carmaker sold faulty, easily stolen vehicles in oakland. the cars were popular targets for thieves during the pandemic because many models were missing an important
6:06 am
security feature. kia and hyundai have since agreed to give out free anti-theft upgrades and to compensate customers who are victims of theft or break in. you can submit a claim now, but the settlement won't get final, won't be final until mid-july. >> time is now 605a band in the east bay desperately searching for its musical equipment. after its tour, van was stolen last week in oakland. the rock group wander says their van was stolen the night of may 22nd from an apartment garage on 12th street in oakland, and at the time, wander was loaning the van to another local band. it was last seen loaded with instruments, equipment and years of memories. these rockers hope to get their van back, but they don't want other musicians to be hurt by their bad luck. >> i want bands to still come through oakland. i still want music to happen in oakland because i think the oakland community deserves that. >> so far this year in oakland, more than 4000 car thefts have
6:07 am
been reported. if you have any information about where that stolen van is, contact oakland police. >> time now is 606 and we do have a bigger backup at the bay bridge toll plaza this morning with some sort of police activity going on. this is our triple a traffic camera. and it was off to the right. i think people were looking at it. it's also pretty slow there at the toll plaza. we're also looking at a problem in san jose, northbound 101 at the connector ramp to 880. it's also affecting the northbound 880 connector ramp to 101. they kind of need that ramp as well to clear up this truck that was loaded down with 40,000 pounds of strawberries. it's going to be quite the cleanup. use 280 instead as an alternate route at 607. let's get back to the desk. okay. >> thank you. a climate change experiment that was halted because of safety concerns. maybe making a comeback in alameda. we'll tell you about
6:08 am
new findings and a key vote that could decide the fate of a cloud brightening study on the deck of the uss hornet plus. >> this morning, in celebration of aapi heritage month, you'll hear from the giants dj umami, who has been infusing oracle park with energy and excitement

6:12 am
medical aid in that war torn region, but she became stuck when the border was shut down. then medical supplies started to dwindle as well, making a bad situation even worse. >> we try to help patients as much as you can. it's hard when you don't have the tools to help patients or patients you know who should be hospitalized, but can't be because there's just no room for them, you know? >> the doctor was finally able to secure a return after four weeks. there in gaza, a seemingly just in time she says. on her way back home, there was an airstrike right near the clinic where she'd been working all classes at uc santa cruz will be online today and tomorrow due to an ongoing campus strike. >> the strike has lasted for a week now. yesterday protesters blocked the entrances to campus, filling the streets with tents and dumping rocks, debris and paint onto the pavement. union academic workers say they're upset about how university leaders have responded to
6:13 am
pro-palestinian protests. the strike has spread to other uc campuses. an estimated 12,000 union employees are walking the picket lines at uc santa cruz, uc davis and ucla. >> hard decision to go on strike and to do it. you know, like like you said, like at this moment when we're all preparing to, you know, i'm supposed to walk in my graduation this year, you know, for phd students say the strike has led to research delays and withheld grades ahead of their final exams. >> the uc office of the president calls the strike illegal, saying that its contract with the union includes a no strike provision. >> our time now 613 later this year, the us supreme court will hear a case involving water pollution regulations for san francisco. the city is in a dispute with the environmental protection agency. the epa accuses san francisco of violating the clean water act by allowing dangerous contaminants to flow through its oceanside water pollution control plant
6:14 am
and then right into the pacific ocean. san francisco says the regulations are too generic and exposed the city to fines and lawsuits. officials say the epa should just announce how much the city needs to control in its discharges to comply with the clean water act. >> donald trump's future lies in the hands of 12 manhattan jurors today. they are expected to start deliberating on whether trump is innocent or guilty in his criminal trial. that involves 34 counts, including falsifying business records and paying hush money. fox news correspondent rebecca castor joins us now from new york city with the latest on how the proceedings could go. good morning. rebecca >> pam. good morning. donald trump had one word to sum up yesterday's long closing arguments. boring. but later today, his fate is in the hands of the jury. >> jury instructions. this is what you use to evaluate the evidence.
6:15 am
>> on wednesday, judge juan mershon is expected to direct the jury about how they should set off on reaching a verdict before the 12 members start deliberating the evidence in former president donald trump's new york hush money trial. >> we have a judge who's conflicted. >> the former president is charged with 34 felony counts, prosecutors argue trump falsified business documents as part of an effort to hide a hush money payment to adult film star stormy daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election. daniels was allegedly paid to keep quiet about an affair with trump, which he denies a conspiracy to affect the outcome of the 2016 election by burying negative stories about him, and then a cover up by labeling reimbursement payments to his lawyer, michael cohen, as legal expenses when in reality, according to prosecutors, he was paying back cohen for a $130,000 hush money payment. the jury must reach a unanimous decision on whether to convict or acquit trump. if just one believes prosecutors haven't shown trump is guilty beyond a reasonable
6:16 am
doubt, it could result in a hung jury. >> but like any hung jury, the judge is going to give them an allen charge. he's going to tell you to go back, restudy everything. >> if convicted, trump faces a maximum of 20 years behind bars, but it's not clear yet if prosecutors will actually seek prison time. if trump is convicted. pam. >> all right. rebecca certainly one of our top stories we're going to be staying on. we know that the jurors need to stay anonymous. do we know anything about the makeup of the jury? >> we do. so we know that the jury is made up of five women and seven and seven men. two of those people on the jury are lawyers. you have a teacher, two engineers and several others in the business and finance world. there are people that told lawyers on both sides that they either don't have strong opinions of trump or, if they do, whether those opinions are good or bad. they convince lawyers that they could be impartial.
6:17 am
>> all right. rebecca castro there, live in new york city. thank you so much for that. update >> time is 616. we want to go right to this problem in san jose, where a truck flipped over and actually was carrying 40,000 pounds of strawberries. we see live pictures of it now. it's still on its side and probably because of the load, they have a huge, to have two huge tow trucks that are going to write this vehicle. so that ramp is closed, but also the ramp, that goes from 880 to 101 is closed because they need that access. so this ramp here, that one that's from 880 to 101 and this ramp here where the truck was on, that's the ramp from 101 to 880 if you follow me. so both of those ramps are closed as we back out here, those strawberries are still there. and now we get the bigger view here. it looks like they have another truck here to load the strawberries onto. obviously, this is an advanced operation
6:18 am
it's going to take or you know, it's going to take a while anyway. so avoid this, this strawberry truck and 101 is going to be slow in the area. so we're going to keep an eye on it for you, triple a traffic camera will show you the alternate route 280 getting up to the west valley. that looks pretty good. bay bridge toll plaza backed up all the way out to the maze in case you're going over. once you get onto the bridge, it looks okay. at 671, before we send you out into the mystic, let's bring steve paulson back. >> see what you did there, sal? very well. we're only we're only played there. okay. we have a baseball forecast now. officially, i'm going 68in the city, but 70 for the for oracle today. 1245 if you again if you're in the lower bowl or in the sun, it can be hot there if you're in the shade, probably not bad at all. but if you're in the sun, i would prepare for being pretty warm. temperatures which have been below those are the average highs for today or going above santa rosa 8668 officially in the city. livermore 84, in san jose at 81. inland temps have been on the

cool side. they're gradually bumping up today and tomorrow they'll be warmer. we'll go mid 80s tomorrow, upper 80s to maybe near 90 if you get a north of a northerly breeze. 50s for most. i think we'll start to warm up pretty fast here as except for a few patches of fog on the san mateo coast and santa cruz area, we're all set for warmer temps 80s today, now 60s 70s coast and bay, but inland temps will peak out tomorrow before they start to cool down. friday, saturday. >> all right. thank you steve. there are new covid variants. we'll tell you what health officials are saying about some local areas seeing an increase and a deadly explosion at a bank in ohio. why investigators still don't know what caused that tragedy

6:32 am
they have to use the ramp for the tow truck, northbound 880 to northbound 101 is blocked. they have to unload the strawberries before they can. right. that trailer there and then they will reopen. it's an extensive operation and you know it's going to take a while. have i told you lately how much i adore 280? look at that. that looks great. getting up to the west valley. that's probably your alternate route right there. we'll have more traffic in just a bit, but right now, let's get back to pam. >> all right. thank you. sal. san francisco is getting millions of dollars to make improvements at some of its muni stations. ktvu is ali rasmus joins us now live in the city with the details of what that money will pay for. ali >> well, behind us is the muni light rail stop at church and market, and you can see it is not level with the street in order to get on a rail car here, you have to go up, get on the platform and go up a ramp. sfmta is going to get some federal money to fix and upgrade ramps just like this, so that it's
6:33 am
easier for people in wheelchairs or with mobility challenges to get on board and use the light rail system. the us department of transportation announced san francisco will get $4.7 million to improve several muni platforms. improvements mean adding more wheelchair ramps and closing the gap between the platform and the rail cars so that the trains are easier to board. >> it can be a wide gap for people to cross over, and if you're wheelchair isn't up to function for that gap, then you can't get across the gap and then you have a barrier to life, basically. so i think it's money well spent. >> now where will these improvements be made? at five stations on the j church, muni light rail line in san francisco, and on another three muni stops on the m ocean view line. now, we don't know exactly which of those stops on those two lines will get the upgrades. we also don't know when construction could start or how

6:35 am
at the original sentencing earlier this month. this time, depape did address the court and he said, quote, i never meant to hurt him. and i feel horribly for hurting mr. pelosi. >> 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 corrected, the pabst defense is arguing he shouldn't be prosecuted in two separate courts for the same crimes and charges. parents in novato are voicing their frustrations after a string of violent incidents at sinaloa middle school last night, parents went to a meeting to address the latest incident when a girl was attacked by three other students. >> the principal says the school has handed out severe punishments for the students involved in friday's fight, but
6:36 am
parents argue this is an ongoing problem and they say more needs to be done. >> 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. minimalizing violence is a big problem. >> our crew was not allowed to list listen in on last night's meeting, but afterwards parents told us they felt just as frustrated as they did before the meeting. >> our time is now. 635 police in berkeley warning the public about robberies at gas station pumps. the just in the last week there have been several incidents where thieves drive up and they steal a purse or a bag from a car, while women are pumping gas. berkeley police released video of one of those incidents from the weekend. a woman was pumping gas. suspects drove up to the passenger side of her car, opened the door and stole the woman's backpack from the front seat. police say the
6:37 am
cases are being investigated, and they're trying to figure out whether they may all be related. uc berkeley police say $30,000 worth of metals and industrial equipment was stolen from campus property. the officials are saying two burglaries occurred at the uc central distribution center in richmond. they happen sometime between may 23rd and yesterday. police believe the burglars got in through the roof so far, no arrests have been made in the case. >> a san francisco based online clothing business says a recent break in is threatening to put the company out of business. the owner says he started the business, dare fashion, 17 years ago and has never experienced a break-in of this magnitude. thieves broke into his company's space and stole about $300,000 worth of merchandise. the owner is determined to rebuild his business and keep it in the city if he can. >> i'm an optimist, i really do believe i'm pretty good at
6:38 am
business, and i can kind of see opportunities when they're there and then i'm not afraid to work hard. 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 for the remaining inventory has been moved to a smaller, more secure office space in japantown. >> a gofundme has also been set up to help the company recover. >> time is 637 and we still have a strawberry truck that's flipped over in san jose on the connector ramp from northbound 101 to northbound 880, a traffic camera showing it. also the ramp from 880 to 101 is blocked because they had to get the tow truck in to right the truck before they right the trailer, they have to get the strawberries out of there, putting them onto a different truck here. so and you can see, as greg pushes in our photographer, look at all those strawberries, and obviously it's going to be a while here. and they have the skip loader
6:39 am
getting those strawberries. so we're in a real jam, pardon the pun, but there you go. northbound 101. i'm going to put it on a map here for you. northbound 101 is going to be slow as you come up from mckee, so 280 is the best alternate route. 280 is actually doing very well getting into that west valley san mateo bridge off to another commute. we go. that traffic is okay. it's getting a little crowded and we have a bigger backup this morning at the bay bridge. it's backed up all the way out to the maze. so pretty robust here on a wednesday. yeah. kind of. that's kind of weird. it's already wednesday, right? monday was a holiday, so i'm a little off. i don't know if you are. 638 steve, before we send people into the mystic, what's the forecast? sunny side up and warmer south. >> how's that? thank you. well first off, now again, there's a couple forecasts for the city for the game today. phillies. giants. i'm going 70, usually a

6:47 am
was also shot twice by the police. >> 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 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. >> now porter says, just as he was leaving the motel room with his hands up, a police officer shot him. the police say porter had a knife and charged at them. now the officer who opened fire, her, nesto mejia orozco, resigned from the pittsburgh police department that same year. charges against him in this particular case were dropped. however, next month he's expected to plead guilty to local bribery charges and the federal charges of paying someone to take online classes for him so that he could get a higher pay.

>> ten members of congress are calling for hearings into abuses at the federal women's prison in dublin. >> prisons can be run in a way that are respectful of the process. obviously but when they develop these cultures, there's lots of history that shows it's very hard to change it and people won't be truthful because if they are truthful, unfortunately they'll be held to account. so we have to get to that point. >> it has been six weeks since the bureau of prisons announced the shutdown of fci dublin. what happened? that happened just after a special master was appointed to oversee compliance with federal law in response to a culture of sexual abuse. now, a settlement is expected in dozens of sex abuse cases filed by women against more than 30 correctional officers at the now closed federal prison in dublin. a lawyer representing 23 of the 106 plaintiffs says she wants to use some of the settlement money to create a first of its kind healing center. jessica pride says she and a partner have already purchased land for the

6:56 am
seen off the marin county coast. marine researchers saw it from their ship while they were monitoring the health of the ocean, and they watched it for about 20 minutes, then sent photos and videos to a lab in seattle for more studies of this rare whale. >> i think that there are fewer than 50 individuals in this particular population, so we consider them to be incredibly rare, making sightings such as the one that just occurred very important and very exciting for us because with only 50 or fewer, we don't get to see them very often at all. >> now, these whales normally travel between the united states and canada. they became endangered because of 19th century commercial whaling. our time 656 this morning, spray treatments due to begin in a part of san jose aimed at getting rid of invasive mosquitoes. last night, the county held a community meeting telling the public about the plans to spray the area. the vector control says the insect species they're seeing can carry

6:58 am
smoke conditions mean. >> an obvious effect was that smoke is essentially dimming the lights, so it's blocking, on average, about 20% of the solar radiation hitting the lake surface. wildfires have been increasing around the world. they generate more and more smoke, but what we realized was that we don't actually know what the smoke does to the ecosystems. >> now, this study suggests thick smoke from big fires can lead to lower water temperatures and reduced oxygen for wildlife in those waters. however, scientists say more research is needed before drawing any long term conclusions. our time is 658. elon musk's neuralink startup company wants to enroll three new participants to test its brain implant chip. they're looking for people who are paralyzed and are between the age of 22 and 75. the researchers say they want to test the implant in the part of the brain that's responsible for
