down san pablo, i said. i must call them and i called, left a message and was answered right away. >> answering her call for help was the first step towards change and giving her something she hadn't felt for decades. >> you're completely safe. >> how long had it been since you felt safe? >> oh, since 2000. >> a sense of safety is what so many seniors who come here told us they are searching for. some who experienced homelessness for months on end. >> about a year. that's a long time. a year sleeping in the car, running from place to place at the time when they first became a client. >> here i was living in my car, so i lived in my car for about a year. >> the goal for seniors who come to saint mary's is permanent housing. last year, 50 seniors achieved that goal, but many more wait. on the day we visited, 30 people attended a housing clinic. >> we know at saint mary's that today, seniors 55 and older are
4:16 am
the fastest growing segment of the unhoused community. so across san pablo avenue and the process can take time, which is why this walking tour we went on in this neighborhood means so much now. we've had our eyes on this for a little while, and doing thanks to a line item budget secured by state senator nancy skinner, saint mary's can go house hunting. >> and like i said, it has another unit in the back. it may be two. >> oh, okay. so that's helpful. so we'll have to take a look at that. multiple units is helpful with $2 million to spend. >> the goal is to find and build something similar to what they call presentation house. >> it's nine rooms shared baths shared kitchen. several of the seniors you talked to today have stayed at presentation house for up to two years. while they were seeking permanent housing. it makes an enormous difference, and that's what transitional housing is. it's not it's not permanent. but it's a place to stay. a room with a door that closes, a little privacy, a good night's sleep and a chance to
4:17 am
get your documentation together. your income verification together, a room with a door, a safe space. >> it's like you have. you have some privacy. you have some something that that creates like your own. you can actually create your own space, that's, it means so much. >> me and maria lived out, actually lived down the street together, living there meant protection for sandra from the harsh elements that made her health challenges so much more difficult. >> i have that real bad arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and it was really cold out here. >> and so i was just telling him one day how cold i was and how my back and all that stuff hurt so bad for maria. >> presentation house was a lifeline when the 12 bed dorm style shelter became too much, i came here crying. >> i said, is there anywhere you could put me any porch, any couch? because i'm going to snap if i continue to live in that, in that, shelter after. and
4:18 am
immediately that day they gave me the keys to my room. that is how awesome saint mary's is. >> one step in what can be a long journey. the truth is, we know what it takes to solve homelessness and housing it. >> it takes housing to solve homelessness. >> and it's what saint mary's has done for 51 years. they help people find a path, offer a hand, and the people they help lend a hand to those who come after castro of eldridge is a group of seniors, six that have been barred with saint mary's center for a year or longer, and have gone through some things in life and allowed saint mary's center to help them to get their lives back in order to work as an example for new and old clients. >> there are all kinds of examples here. >> i'm one of them, and like maria fortes, it can start with a simple walk down the street to saint mary's. knowing that if you call saint mary's for help, they answer, it is home.
4:19 am
>> it's safety. i haven't felt like that in 20 years. >> in oakland. claudine wong, ktvu, fox two news. >> all right, claudine, thank you. time is 418. in east oakland, a new affordable housing development is now open. this grand opening was held yesterday for ax cherry hill apartments at 94th avenue and international boulevard. it's a 55 unit mixed use development and 14 of the apartments for households that are leaving being homeless. the development also has a community space and a health clinic on the ground floor. >> one of several projects in this neighborhood, and it combines housing and community spaces and a community organizing and health services really holistically looks at the needs of a community and the people in east oakland deserve to have a nice, clean, beautiful place to live. >> and god, can we give up now. >> this development was built through a public private partnership between the city of

4:21 am
today though, a little bit more sunshine. so a warmer friday. but i mean, it won't be that big a jump just near average here on the temps, but wind looks to it. just depends on which forecast model is right. some of them keep it into more over towards us through the middle of next week. others kind of kick it out. but any way you look at it, sunday, monday, tuesday does look like a blustery, windy pattern for us. so friday sunshine, sunny and nice little a little bit of a breeze there. can't get around that 6070s and 80s. >> all right steve thank you. some dramatic video to show you the moment burglars swarmed a jewelry store. we'll tell you about the continuing search for more than a dozen people accused of the crimes and the baby formula shortage of 2022. it's back in the spotlight. what a new audit tells us about how the food and drug administration handle that situa

store. they smashed cases with hammers and other tools. look at your screen. this happened at a store on el camino real wednesday afternoon. police arrested five people involved in the robbery, and they recovered some of the stolen jewelry. the total value of what was stolen still not clear. investigators are searching for the other people involved and say they're trying to figure out if this incident is connected to a similar robbery in sunnyvale last month. time is 424. the only hospital in the city of alameda is ending certain medical procedures. the san francisco chronicle reports the public alameda hospital will stop performing elective surgeries after june 30th. patients who had scheduled surgeries after that date will be sent to other hospitals in oakland and in san leandro. hospital officials say that's all designed to help offset the cost of seismic upgrades. well, doctors, nurses and county
4:25 am
officials in the south bay are increasingly worried about a plan to close regional medical center's trauma center this summer. they held what they call a lives lost rally. they walked with caskets, which they say symbolize the deadly consequences of closing that trauma center county supervisor cindy chavez says. for those people who live nearby, it's a major concern. >> significant traumas will all be going to one of two trauma centers, either valley medical center or stanford. they're very far away from here. they are removing a life saving resource from our community. >> now, supporters of the trauma center say they started a petition that has now been signed by almost 5000 people urging state officials to step in and keep those doors open. the trauma center is scheduled to close in august. well, a new government audit finds the fda failed in its response to the
4:26 am
nationwide shortage of baby formula. two years ago, the federal office of the inspector general issued its official report after a long and extensive investigation, and found that the fda took 15 months to act on a whistleblower complaint about the problems that led to a critical shortage of baby formula at the nation's biggest baby formula plant. >> need to have better reporting standards for the public to report to the problems. for the fda to report its findings. when things go wrong, making sure that the inspection process for factories is improved and handled better. >> now, the fda admits it made several mistakes in responding to the shortage of baby formula, but they say they're doing everything possible now to avoid similar mistakes in the future. time now for 26. the race to replace retiring congresswoman anna eshoo could lead to a change in california law. we tell you why a contentious vote

4:30 am
your friday morning forecast. he's right there. >> right where. oh right here. yes sir. yes i am. you're right. it is cool out there. 40s on the temps, santa rosa is the enigma today. the forecast highs for santa rosa today are 78, 84, 84, 89 and 90. come on. so i'm splitting the difference. there are 48 degrees. 48 also livermore palo alto 49. so we do have some low clouds around, but there's not as much. but that's pretty cool a lot of 40s here. so i'm splitting the difference there for santa rosa 60s 70s and 80s. all right. sal is here to tell us there's one accident. i think i heard you say, yeah, there was one accident in the south bay. >> it's not causing a big delay, but we're going to look at some of these commutes. steve, bay bridge looks very light. and hopefully today we're going to have light traffic throughout it. it certainly is starting that way. the one crash we have is northbound 87 at taylor street. that off ramp is blocked
4:31 am
because of a pedestrian accident. unfortunately that turned into a deadly crash. it's not causing a big delay because it is so early and on fridays we don't usually have a big delay in the south bay commute, sometimes on fridays we don't get any delays at all. so we'll see. we'll keep an eye on it for you for 30. let's go back to the desk. >> all right. sal thank you. well, a business owner in san leandro is in shock. thieves rammed a car right into a liquor store. nothing was stolen, but it cost thousands of dollars in damage. and the police are searching now for the criminals involved. as ktvu amber lee tells us, this was not the only business that was affected. >> no business is safe. >> surveillance video shows the front door of gourmet cellar, a liquor store in san leandro, falling apart after a car backs into it. two suspects get out. one jumps over the counter, the other removes the broken door. shortly after the silver lexus is backed all the way into the
4:32 am
store. the driver rams the car repeatedly into the atm and finally knocks it over. this happened around 345 thursday morning. >> it's a shock even though you know it's going around. but you always think, okay, no, you i mean, it's not going to happen to you, rinku singh and her husband tony own the store. >> they tell me the thieves were unable to break into the atm or steal it before police arrived. the couple says the thieves stole cigarets and left a trail of damage. the singh's had the atm removed, hoping to prevent thieves from targeting their store again. >> it's pretty sad, you know, to have a nice store and a community mom pop store. there's a backbone of america. >> san leandro police say this same silver lexus was found at the scene of a similar burglary attempt at 420 market, a cannabis dispensary in east oakland near the coliseum. soon after the break in at the liquor store, the dispensary owner asked us not to show his face. >> this happened at 4:00 in the morning. >> he gave us surveillance video
4:33 am
that appears to show the same car backing into the front fence, and then the front entrance. police say it's unclear if the vehicle is stolen. the owner says the suspects caused extensive damage, estimated to be up to $100,000, but the thieves were unable to get inside the store. what's your reaction to this tired. >> i want something to be done. opd showed up quickly. if they had more time, they probably would have gotten in and caused even more damage, the owner tells me. >> this is the second time thieves have tried to break in by ramming a vehicle into his dispensary, since he opened last august, he says this time there were a total of three cars that showed up in front of his shop, carrying up to ten people who were part of the break in. >> and i'm not going to let these idiots close us down. so just like when they broke in the first time the night before our grand opening, i was open by that afternoon, i wasn't let them stop our day. i'm not going to let them stop us now. >> as for the couple who owns the liquor store, they say they moved to the current location
4:34 am
thinking it was safer than their previous site in downtown san leandro. the couple tells me they want more police patrols. amber lee, ktvu, fox two news. >> all right, amber, thank you. time now for 33. now we're hearing more about the allegations of discrimination against alameda county district attorney pamela price. the district attorney is facing allegations of discrimination made by her former spokesperson, patty lee worked for pamela price as public information officer for six months last year until she was fired. she says, and she says she believed there were illegal practices, including violations of california's public records act. and patty lee is now filed a wrongful termination lawsuit claiming she was humiliated and bullied. patty lee says pamela price once told her that her enemies are, quote, the media and the asians. >> as a district attorney, you can't fire the person in charge. the public information officer for upholding sort of the
4:35 am
sanctimony of transparency. first amendment and so on. >> now, the firing of patty lee followed an incident involving emily ragazzo, the founder of the berkeley scanner, an independent daily crime news site. ragazzo accused pamela price of denying her access to come to a news conference and then failing to turn over public records that she had requested. times now, 434, in sunnyvale, authorities announced the arrest in connection with the homicide that we told you about in late april. the police department says two juvenile suspects have been arrested the first on tuesday, the second on thursday, and you're looking at video from the citizen app from that scene on april 30th. the police say they found a man who'd been shot several times in a car on south bernardo avenue, near east evelyn. he died later at the hospital. both suspects, who were arrested this week, are now booked at the county's juvenile hall. well, well. the race to

5:03 am
reform, its oversight and a couple of different ways. as it stands, each board member must be an elected official, which the audit reports could be a problem if those officials don't have any experience in transit. it also mentions the short tenure each board member serves. it's only about two years, which is much shorter than other similar agencies, according to that audit. in general, the audit says vta is working through most of its recommendations, but did say vta rejected two proposals, one regarding that term length and another about adding more public transparency to the board appointment process. in a press release, vta leaders called the audit thorough, fair, and thoughtful, but did not address rejecting those recommendations. in a statement, assembly member berman said, quote, i do not understand why vta would choose to protect their power to appoint and remove board members behind closed doors with no public transparency or justification, undermining the agency's accountability to residents. i do not understand
5:04 am
why vta thinks it is better for board members to serve for shorter amounts of time, given the breadth and complexity of the services vta provides. now, vta is required to check in with the state on its progress throughout the other recommendations that bart expansion. it's going to take a while. it's set to be completed by 2037. dave. >> all right. james thank you. time is now. 504 in san francisco. a pedestrian safety group led a vigil last night for the victim of a deadly hit and run crash. now that memorial service was held in bernal heights, where a 41 year old man was hit and killed early monday morning while crossing the street. and the police are still out there searching for the driver. the safety group walk s.f. organized the vigil and says the city needs to make safety improvements on mission street near cortland avenue and other dangerous intersections lining our streets for bike and ped and people taking the bus. >> it's the best way that we're

5:07 am
back to basics, providing high visibility on our streets and responding to 911 calls for service because that's where we are at this point in time. >> when you have a police department that is slowly shrinking and they'll call for service or the workload is getting better, bigger, you have to really focus on what you can do. >> police chief mitchell has been on the job for just about a month now, and says most of his budget plan was already in place before he arrived in oakland. >> our time is 507. members of congress now threaten to punish colleges if they don't condemn anti-semitism on campuses. the powerful house ways and means committee held a hearing titled crisis on campus anti-semitism radical faculty and the failure of university leadership. the witnesses who testified included a graduate of cornell university and an assistant professor from columbia university. they claim that schools nationwide are not doing enough to protect jewish
