♪ in the news this saturday morning, november 6, mostly peaceful protests in oakland over the sentencing of johannes mehserle are now marred by 152 arrests. a san francisco socialite killed last weekend in her russian hill apartment. >> we have low clouds. call it partly cloudy today and the rain arrives this time tomorrow. >> good morning, everyone. i'm theresa garcia. 152 people are facing charges of unlawful assembly and vandalism in oakland this morning. it is the aftermath of yesterday's mostly peaceful protests over the sentencing of former bart police officer johannes mehserle.

he will do much less time than that. two years of 730 days. but under something called double credit, mehserle will only have to serve half that which is 365 days plus he gets credit for the time he's already served. that's another 146 days meaning he'll be out in a little over seven months. well, people who thought mehserle's sentencing was too light turned out in oakland to protest. was mostly peaceful until about 6 p.m. and that's when one group left city hall, moved in the opposite direction of what had been prearranged with police. >> we are all oscar grant! >> we are all oscar grant! >> the tensions between police and protestors ran high. hundreds of police officers from around the bay area all dressed in riot gear, many carrying rifles and tear gas guns easily outnumbered the demonstrators. the crowd zigzagged its way through the city and ended up in

east oakland. eventually they boxed in the group of protestors issuing multiple orders to disperse. there were repeated acts of vandalism, people kicking in car windows, throwing rocks at officers. one officer was even injured struck by a patrol car. he's reported to be in stable condition. police say a gun was ripped from another officer's gun belt. it was recovered in a crowd of protestors and that's when things got tense. >> one officer had his gun and his holster ripped from his gun belt. the gun was pointed at the officer. other officers intervened, took the suspect into custody. he's under arrest. >> those arrested were booked in the field and loaded on the buses while fellow protestors on the other side of the buses were shouting at police to let them go. the chief said his officers did a great job of keeping the streets safe while allowing protestors to carry out first amendment rights.

officers only moved in when people became destructive. >> you have a right to protest, a right to have freedom of spee. you do not have a right to tear the city up. >> most of the 152 people arrested face misdemeanor charges of failing to disperse and vandalism. they were taken to the jail at 6th and play in oakland. shut down the fruitvale bart station out of concern protestors might be headed that way. no one showed up and the station was reopened. sky 7 got this shot as a crowd of more than 300 demonstrators brought a bus to a standstill as they left the plaza near city hall. lisa amin gulezian shows us how the peaceful city hall demonstration turned ugly when the demonstrators went on the move. >> i feel angry! i feel angry about this whole

situation. >> hundreds started to march after what had just been a peaceful rally honoring oscar grant. the crowd grew quickly as protestors blocked 14 and and broadway. the problems started as people broke windows and tore down a fence. the anger seemed to grow as the crowd moved toward laneny college on east 10th street. that's where they met a massive police presence. police in riot gear and armed with batons blocked the approaching crowd and held their line at second avenue. the group retreated but only after destroying a chain link fence and disappearing through a dark, vacant lot. some say it was easy to get caught up in the moving crowd at first. people of all ages took part until some protestors' intentions changed.

>> when they were doing all that. >> that's when you decided what? >> to back up. not to go with the crowd. >> this was exactly what rally organizers didn't want. they hoped oscar grant supporters would have a chance to speak freely and peacefully. the outrage over his sentencing was expressed through signs and words. >> we all need to unify. we need to try to find some type, way of staying close to the families as a city, as a neighborhood and just unite. >> the sentencing he got today, it wasn't right. i felt like he should have got more time. and i just don't like -- justice wasn't served. >> some of those at the rally are backing another movement, a positive one. it's called stop the city down. basically a massive work stoppage in the city of oakland. those organizers are meaning to talk about it next week. lisa amin gulezian, abc 7 news. >> mehserle's sentence isn't final. there may be appeals from both

sides of the case. laura anthony was in the los angeles courtroom when the judge announced the sentence and shares immediate reaction afterwards. >> i knew what the judge was gonna say before he even said it. >> oscar grant's uncle says he wasn't surprised johannes mehserle received just two years for shooting his nephew but was still gravely disappointed. compares the sentence to that of football player michael vick. >> if a man goes to prison killing a dog and he gets four years, then, of course, two years is not enough. >> a tense and emotional hearing judge robert perry signalled early that he had serious concerns about gun enhancement. the judge dismissed it for lack of evidence. >> it's been a sad course of affairs that this young man who never intended to shoot and kill oscar grant has been treated the way he's been treated. >> the judge said he thought the 28-year-old mehserle clearly did

not mean to shoot grant as evidenced by the shock and surprise after the gun went off. called the case one of weapons confusion but also one that required at least some prison time. grant's mother begged the judge to impose the max possible sentence on mehserle saying anything less is an injustice to us. it was mehserle's turn. he stood facing the judge, cried and said i have never and will never question the love shown by grant's family. i'm truly sorry my actions took a son, a father, a brother and uncle. >> to me this is only to come immediately. now i don't know if it's constrived. >> i have never understood and i will never understand how in the world the grant family continues to insist that he's not remorseful and that he's not expressed his remorse before today. >> mehserle's attorney michael rain has already filed an appeal to the involuntary manslaughter

conviction. the prosecutor said they will appeal the decision to throw out the gun enhancement, laura anthony, abc 7 news. >> a parolee is under arrest for robbing and killing a san francisco socialite. 46-year-old kathleen horn was found dead inside her russian hill apartment last saturday. the suspect gary scott holland posed as a utility worker to get into her apartment building. police haven't released a photo of holland but yesterday they distributed this sketch of a man they wented to interview in connection with the case and also approached holland in sutro heights park yesterday because he looks like someone who needed help. >> unusual circumstance for a number of reasons. the more we inquired and the more we looked and talked with the person, the more it suggested that there was more here than just a person laying down in the park. >> holland was released from prison in april after serving 11 years for attempted murder in fresno county. police say they have other

pieces of evidence that they can't discuss right now because this is an ongoing investigation. coming up next, tuesday's elections are over but the ballot counting is not. a surprise reversal in the tight oakland mayor election. also the race for state attorney general remains too close to call. we'll let you know how it may be weeks before a winner is declared. and an arrest in the bay

>> closed captioning brought to you by mancini sleepworld. >> welcome back. it could take weeks before we know for sure who will be california's next attorney general. as of yesterday, san francisco democrat carpal la harris was

trailing by 16,000 votes with more than 2 million provisional ballots still could be counted. the margin appears to be the tightest since 2002 when democrat steve wellesley edged out for state controller. that race was decided by fewer than 17,000 votes. in the race for the next mayor of oakland, there appears to be an upset. election officials have released the first results of ranked choice voting. they show oakland city council member gene qwan has pulled ahead with 51% of the vote and former state senate president don perrattas just under 47%. in the rank choice system, official count second and third choices until one candidate reaches at least 50%. there is a break for thousands of families on the verge of losing the state subsidize the day-care. an alameda superior court judge

ordered the state to extend services to the governor's cut. he scheduled a hearing on the issue on november 23rd. the child care advocates, the department of education was sued saying it didn't notify families they might be eligible for other subsidized child care programs. >> one of two suspects accused of stealing this yorkshire terrier from an 80-year-old alameda woman is under arrest but the dog remains missing. helen was walking other dog deuce last saturday when two men stopped their car, grabbed the dog, and took her purse and took off. police say deuce may have been sold to someone in the stockton area. all right. we're talking about umbrellas. bringing them out at least by tomorrow? >> that's right. today's the dry day although we have plenty of clouds, a weak system offshore from our roof camera. the sun not coming up until 7:40. so we'll change all that tomorrow and bring the wet weather back. your forecast is coming right up. >> and the warriors are looking outstanding early in the season

to southern california and clouds in the bay area as well. an area of low pressure in the front with some pretty good rain is offshore. it's all going to slide to the east and push through the bay area throughout the day tomorrow. with the rainfall total starting out in the north bay early on. but look how quickly it moves on through. there's the front. by 7:00 tomorrow morning, we'll be looking at the moderate rain getting going from san francisco into the east bay and the front wants to push into the north bay to the later morning hours. we've got the rain all across the bay by 10:00. by gaining time in the east bay tomorrow for the raiders game, the front should be sweeping through, taking the rain with it. but plan on a wet start there. over an inch in the north bay as well as parts of san francisco, the peninsula, the coastal hills, the santa cruz mountains. lesser amounts into the south bay but even the east bay looking at perhaps

three-quarters of an inch to an inch of rain. this all translates into snow and the higher elevations, 6 to 10 inches tomorrow and 12 to 18 inches above 8,000 feet. the snow levels lowering to 6,000 feet early monday morning. the winter storm warning in effect through monday. so be advised of that if you're traveling to the sierra. some windy conditions as well. by tomorrow a wet start around the bay. by the afternoon, we're looking at the rains diminishing. mostly cloudy, a few peeks of sun late in the day but it's going to be today where we see perhaps sunny conditions over the east bay hills with low 70s there in livermore, 65 san mateo with 66 in santa rosa and down by the monterey bay, you have fog in watsonville and cooling down across the bay with increasing clouds and then breezy and rainy tomorrow. you get to sleep in.
