the city is handling the protests. abc 7's sergio cantana reports. >> this is the first cold steady rain this group has had to deal with since the occupation started. >> the rain is actually cold but everybody works together to bring us all together. >> about a mile west former police chief anthony bass takes in the appreciation of a coalition of local pastors at a ceremony honoring his service to the city. >> what's it like watching what's happening from a distance? >> it's painful. it's hurtful. i think oakland is a wonderful city. i think it has a lot of wonderful people here that care very much about the city. they wanted to see us with a positive reputation. >> bass has been watching the clashes with protests and police over the last several weeks. he's been out of town meeting with several people including president bill clinton on

issues. when asked how the occupy group has been handled he was careful not to criticize but did relay advice given by president clinton. >> you can't conquer issues by force but has to be handled through diplomacy. >> anthony bass handed in his badge friday tying up the final details of the resignation he tendered on october 11th, one day after the first occupiers descended on the plaza. he is no longer chief but offers some perspective especially for residents and local businesses being affect bid the ongoing occupation. >> i think in relate what you really have are people sitting down on the grass and you have people who are camping illegally in a park. and so we have to take our breath right now and we have to show some patience for right now. >> he resigned last month after the city council nixed three of his crimefighting initiatives and he was facing long standing warnings by a federal judge that actually predated his tenure that the courts could take over the oakland police department if reforms were not instituted. he was also at times in conflict with some of the mayor's

priorities. at oakland city hall i'm sergio cantana, abc 7 news. >> we want you to take a look at some video posted on the internet after last wednesday's demonstration in oakland. it has sparked an internal police investigation. during the demonstration, a citizen journalist noticed an oakland police officer covering his nametag with black tape. the department's own training bulletin for crowd control requires officers to wear visible identification. it's also mandated in the state penal code. >> that is kind of weird that you actually are not showing your name. why is that? >> simple question. >> simple question. then the photographer points it out to a higher ranking officer and walks over and realizing the officer is out of compliance and peels the tape off his nametag. the oakland police department says it is aware of the incident and is now investigating.

morgan hill residents are shocked by the first murder in that city in more than two years. a teenager died friday night when she and two other teenagers were shot. police have arrested five suspects but police in the neighborhood tell abc 7 they fear for their safety. >> a small memorial is set up at village avante apartments in honor of 14-year-old tara romero who was shot to death while hanging out with friends on this grassy hillside. three other teenagers who were with romero were also shot. one remains in a medically induced coma. >> we don't believe that they targeted them specifically, those four. they just came by and just randomly shot using a rifle. >> morgan hill police believe the shootings were gang related. they say a car full of gang members drove up cosmo avenue and when they reached del monte, they started firing at the four teenagers who just left a

birthday party at the apartment complex. police found the suspects four adults and one 17-year-old less than a mile from the crime scene hiding in another apartment complex. this witness did not want to be identified. >> she says "i'm afraid for my family, for everyone who lives here. these were just children and they were shot. i'm very upset." police say homicides are fairly rare in this city. in fact, the last one was in 2009 and that was also gang related. in morgan hill, lisa amin-galazian, abc 7 news. >> a teenage girl died in san jose last night after she was hit by two cars. she was walking near branham lane at pearl avenue at 8:00 and was pronounced dead at the scene. both drivers stuck around and they are cooperating with authorities. there's no evidence drugs or alcohol were involved and no charges have been filed while

this investigation is under way. in antioch a landlord told police he caught a burglar in one of his vacant homes yesterday afternoon and shot him dead. he says he caught the man trying to steal copper wiring and tubing from the house on west 17th street. it wasn't the first time so the landlord says when the burglar threatened him he pulled the trigger. police say it was apparent copper wiring was being ripped out of the home. the victim has not been identified and police say they are still investigating the landlord's claim of self-defense. part of oakland is still wrestling with what to do with potentially explosive refrigerated containers. as we reported last week, compressors have exploded in three major ports. abc 7 has learned that one of them blew up at the port of oakland two months ago. this was long before the other explosions happened. abc 7's tomas ramon spoke to a long shoreman who was injured

while trying to service a refrigerated container. >> the burn has healed now. >> chris yee is a long shoreman mechanic at the port of oakland. two months ago he tried to service a compressor on a refrigerated container from vietnam. >> as soon as i started opening the system up and atmospheric air entered the system it spontaneously burst into flames. >> these pictures were obtained from a dock worker who does not want to be identified. they showed two of five refrigerated containers that exploded as they were being serviced in vietnam. the explosion killed three workers and injured 16. other containers like these exploded in china and brazil over the past two weeks. when chris was injured two months ago dock workers thought it was an isolated incident. joe bevanu also a mechanic works with yee. >> looking now for any indication that these boxes are from vietnam. >> my box was the first one to be discovered, that they had never seen the problem or never heard of it. >> they have now. work was stopped at at least three terminals last monday because long shoremen refused to

unload any containers. they wanted the suspected containers identified and separated before resuming work. that also stopped truckers trying to deliver and pick up containers from the port. >> we have a whole list of boxes that are potentially dangerous and they're quarantining them on our terminal. nobody goes near them. >> so far the indication is the compressors were improperly filled with something other than freon making them potentially explosive. international long shoremen's union says 51 of these containers have been found at the port. 8,000 may be spread worldwide. >> frankly, we'd like to see the government get involved. they need to find out who is responsible for this. who made these decisions. somebody might need to go to jail. this is a very serious problem because three workers have already been killed. >> attorneys for the terminal operators would not go on camera but say they're working on the problem. long shoremen say they're concerned about what's going to happen to these containers after they're identified. who is going to transport them and where? in oakland, i'm tomas ramon, abc

last minute looking over her weather to give you the latest. >> we have some snow going on in the sierra nevada. not out of the woods despite some clear sky outside our window but 30 degrees in blue canyon. this is a look at heavenly where they have a winter weather advisory in effect until 10:00. 1 to 3 inches in the higher elevations. an inch at lake level. my goodness. an early start to the season? it seems like it. we do have clear conditions and it's cool. just some numbers in the 30's but also some fog in the protected valleys of the north bay. so be careful. 39 santa rosa. 37 in nevada. we've got upper 40's san francisco, half moon bay so numbers continue to drop here along the shoreline. we're looking at 43 in the livermore valley. we won't warm up any today. we have a little bit of patchy fog forming so that's going to hinder some of that warming of our air mass. it's cool low angle of the sun. lower angle, i should say.

it's going to take a while for some of that fog to burn back and then we'll see temperatures fairly similar to yesterday. 1/4 mile visibility down in napa and novato. isolated morning showers at sunrise, 6:40. increasing sunshine, cool northwesterly winds today. mild through thursday. upper 60's by wednesday. the sun setting tonight at 5:06 so overnight we saw most of the rain end with this cold front pass on through late yesterday with anywhere from 1/4 inch a little less than that in the livermore valley to 3/4 of an inch by clear lake, santa rosa .75 and talking over a third in mill valley and a little more than a quarter of an inch in oakland and you can see fremont at .37 and san jose .14. everyone is 80, 90%, 100% normal for this time of year. look at live doppler 7 h.d. you can see a few areas of rain off shore and further south

along the higher elevations today and that's all due to that colder air mass that is moving in northwesterly winds. you can see the cold front sweeping through southern california right now and they too, will see some snow in the high country so what's left of this system, maybe a few light showers throughout the 8:00, 9:00 hour but increasing sunshine but still snow in the sierra. in fact, advisory until 10:00 there so, back home we'll be in to see some more sunshine. additional inch at lake level. 1 to 3 inches higher elevations. picked up about a foot and back home, we're talking upper 50's at our coast. 61 in oakland and palo alto with maybe a light shower. overall, though, our drier air mass will take hold and we'll see a cold night tonight. low 60's tomorrow. mid 60's election day. upper 60's on wednesday. increasing clouds still not quite sure if we're going to get dumped on or not come thursday

or friday because you got an area of low pressure in the -- whether it's going to be close to the coast or not will really determine how much rain we get and we look at a series of models and they are not coming into agreement. so we don't know. >> all right. we'll have to wait and see another day or so. >> all right. >> thank you lisa. sierra leone is one of the deadliest places in the world for a mother to give birth. it's also the hardest place for any child under the age of 5 to survive. abc 7's carolyn johnson traveled there to see firsthand the daily challenges they face. and the progress being made. >> for these children, the prick of a needle causes an unpleasant sting. that prick could also prove life saving. >> this is one of the reasons i'm struggling for my kids. >> she's worried her 22-month-old has it. with just a few drops of blood clinicians will know in a matter

(announcer) icy hot patches. targeted no-mess relief. icy to dull pain. hot to relax it away. pain's no match for the icy hot patch. >> in just three months u.s. airlines raked in $1.4 billion in fees and that's just for checked baggage and ticket changes. fees can be expensive and expensive annoyance, one wreaked havoc in the life of a sonoma county woman. here's 7 on your side's michael finney with her story. >> >> terry weisinger thought she was leaving out of san francisco international airport. she couldn't leave. she wound up living there. >> i found a little stairway and laid on the floor. >> terry was stranded in this terminal for eight days and eight nights.

and it wasn't because of bad weather. it was because of baggage fees. >> ridiculous. i couldn't believe it. >> terry was broke and leaving california to start a new life in idaho. she had nothing but an airline ticket and $30 in her pocket. >> $30 would get me there so i thought. >> the last time terry flew five years ago, checking the bag was still free. most travelers are aware of the fees but she was shocked when she got to the ticket counter. u.s. airways said she had to pay an extra $60. >> $25 for one bag and $35 for another bag. >> she claimed she didn't have enough money and asked couldn't she pay when she got there. the airlines said no. she offered to leave one bag behind. that was against security rules. >> i started making phone calls. >> terry wound up missing her flight. now she'd have to pay the baggage fees plus $150 in change fees. she couldn't fly out but had no home to return to either. >> i thought well it looks like i might have to stay there

tonight. >> at first, she didn't panic and treated herself to dinner that night. the next morning her problems grew bigger. u.s. airways said she now had to book a new flight, about $1,000. >> i couldn't do anything. they couldn't help me. >> terry spent days wandering the airport but her cash quickly ran out. >> hungry dirty. >> terry was treated for anxiety at the airport medical clinic. she even asked police for help but was nearly hauled in for vagrancy. >> last time she flu there was-- flew there was no charges. >> consumers have complained about many hidden fees so federal rules require carriers to disclose them prominently on their web site. but terry was flying before the rules took effect. she said she didn't notice any baggage fees when the flight was booked on orbitz and the fee does not appear on her itinerary. her ordeal did end when she found this place the airport church of christ. parishioners paid $210 in fees

and terry flew off to idaho. we asked u.s. airways about this. it said "we have apologized to miss weisinger for her experience but unfortunately are unable to offer a refund. when you purchase a nonrefundable ticket, you accept the terms and conditions. if a passenger cannot travel with their bags they need to make other arrangements. for several years orbitz has provided details on our site as a resource to our customers. terry says it was a lot of trouble over a small fee. >> finally, i was out of there. i was just elated. >> those new federal rules require fees to be lifted within one click away from a home page on an airline web site. come january the rules will require airlines to include government taxes and fees in their advertised fares. hopefully you won't get an unseen bill right at the gate. >> coming up next pixar's "cars 2" is out on dvd.
