series of 911 calls from the victim. the first call at 8:30 police say the victim said young wouldn't stop ringing her doorbell, but she hung up after the nuisance ended. 45 minutes later another call. police respond and convince young to leave. less than an hour later young returns intoxicated, so police booked him for being drunk in public. he spends the night in jail. but at 4:00 a.m., he shows up again. the victim calls police. this time he wants to pack up some of his things, so police watch as she allows him in. she even helps him pack and he leaves. but an hour later, he somehow forces his way back into her home. >> another call, whispering that his roommate has been shot. >> reporter: police say this is especially troubling because young had been arrested two years ago for felony domestic violence. >> that case was dismissed by the district attorney's office because the victim in the case refused prosecution. >> reporter: san francisco

police are reviewing how this incident was handled, but so far say officers followed sergio quintana, abc news. a heated conflict over class in san francisco's mission d district. >> you think just because you have money, you can buy the field. >> no, we don't. >> and play and take over the field. >> this all happened about two weeks ago at the mission park soccer field. this video was posted on youtube. a group of young tech workers tried to kick the group off the feel because the workers reserved it through the city. the teams refuse d to go claimig the field had always been a place for pick-up games. things got worse when a permit was produced with the teams arguing money can't change neighborhood rules that have about been in place for years. we checked and the city allows people to reserve the field for $27 an hour. this morning-to-people are recovering after a car crash ended up on the front lawn of the house. it happened last night in mountain view. the car turned on to california street.

officers say a second car traveling on california broadsided the turning vehicle. it ended up flipping almost on to the porch. two people were taken to the hospital with nonlife threatening injuries. police on the peninsula are stepping up their certificate of for a man who has exposed himself in public twice. this is a sketch released by palo alto police of a man who exposed himself to women thursday. he was inside a white bmw without proper plates. the suspect matches the description of a man who flashed two women outside the coffee shop in belmont yesterday morning. again, he was inside a white bmw. p police are trying to determine if the same man exposed himself to two girls or if these are two separate suspects. this morning the top man in microsoft is backpedaling from what he said about women in the tech industry. his comments about female workers asking for raises has touched off a firestorm. satya nadella has apologized. as tiffany wilson finds, some

women's advocacy groups doend think it goes enough. >> reporter: he is apologizing after these comments set off a storm of criticism. >> it's not really about asking for the raise but knowing and having faith that the system will actually give you the right raises as you go along. and that, i think, might be one of the additional superpowers that, quite frankly, women who don't ask for a raise have. because that good karma will come back. >> reporter: on the streets of san francisco women adamantly disagre disagreed. >> i think it's absolutely absurd. if they feel they deserve it, they have to ask for it. >> reporter: nadella said he was inarticulate and then sent an e-mail to the entire company. it reads in part, i answered the question completely wrong. i believe men and women should get equal pay for equal work. and if you think you deserve a raise, you should ask. when it comes to raises, tech recruiter scott brosnan says

many of his clients prefer to look for a new job rae than ask for more money. >> have you asked for a raise? the more common answer is, i have not. >> reporter: molly carter worked in tech. >> i learned very early on in my career you do have to stand up for herself. >> reporter: she is glad nadella apologized but some groups don't think it's enough. >> i think they should replace him with a ceo who will take women and tech seriously and reward their hard work with fairer salaries. >> reporter: he ended the e-mail with, i learned a valuable lesson. women everywhere hope so. in san francisco, tiffany wilson, abc 7 news. happening today, the navy will commission its new eest amphibious assault ship as fleet week continues in san francisco. the ship arrived monday. it's designed to maximize the

help, throwing things, a nearby water hose, as they attacked his son on his foot and neck. >> he's in there with the -- >> yes. it's not good. >> reporter: once zoo staff arrived they kept the jaguars at bay with fire extinguishers, lowering a ladder into the pit and pulling the boy to safety. the toddler is still cautious and responsive. >> we saw a car go by with a child with his head bleeding. we're trying to figure out what's going on. >> reporter: the youngster now at arkansas children's hospital is in critical condition with scalp lacerations, a depressed skull fracture and punk daughter wounds. the child's name has not been disclosed and his family is not releasing any further medical information. the reports are the injuries are not life threatening. for now the jag are wuar exhibi temporarily closed and a full investigation is under way. chuck seifert son, abc news, new york. san jose's police chief has temporarily ordered his officers to stop working offduty for the

niners. a sergeant arrived before other officers who responded to a 911 domestic violence call temperature appears that call was not made until after the sergeant was at the home. the independent police officer says off-duty jobs can create a conflict of interest when an employer may be involved in a kr crime. >> i can't envision where there isn't a conflict of interest where a police officer is working secondary employment for companies or businesses that make money. >> ray mcdonald has not been charged. no word on how long the moonlighting ban will be in place for police officers. we've heard of con artists claiming you've won a sweepstakes or chosen to be a secret shopper. now another group is being targeted, attorneys. a warning about the latest version of an old con. >> i received an e-mail from a ms. koch.

>> reporter: this attorney figured this was just another plea for legal help. >> she had a japanese divorce decree that she wanted to enforce here in alameda county. >> reporter: the e-mailer says her ex-husband owes her $933,000 in a divorce settlement. he's only paid half of it. while she's in japan, her ex is over here in berkeley. >> and so she wanted to know if she could retain my services to enforce this judgment. >> reporter: seemed logical especially when she said here are the japanese court documents, a divorce decree and settlement agreement, and she said this was her passport. >> i looked at all the documents. i looked at the e-mail. i e-mailed her back, said, thank you very much. >> reporter: he sent her a retainer agreement be and told her he had to speak with her by phone. >> enforcement of a foreign divorce decree is not a routine matter. it's not so simple. >> reporter: she replied saying she was traveling and couldn't find time to talk by phone.

however, her ex-husband had just agreed to cooperate and pay the money. >> so she said what i'd like to do is i would like to arrange to have him send you the money to hold in your trust account. >> reporter: she insist they speak by phone but replied her daughter had fallen deathly ill. she needed the money right away. >> a few days later i received a federal express envelope. inside was a cashier's check, a chase bank cashier's check, in the sum of $497,000. >> reporter: a note inside the envelope told him to deposit the check, subject his attorney f fees, and wire the rest to koch. >> several flags went off. number one, someone who had never spoken to me sends me a cashier's check for $497,000. it didn't pass what i would call the smell check. >> reporter: he took the check to police. sure enough, it was a phony. so are the supposed court documents and the passport. if he had deposited the worthless check and wired money,

it would have been had his own cash going directly to the scammers. an internet search shows dozens of lawyers have received the very same phony plea for help from the phony koch. that's why he contacted me. >> i could have stood to lose a lot of money. so i think the public needs to be made aware. >> reporter: okay, i can't say it enough. if you receive a check you did not receive to expect and asked to wire it back, it's almost certainly a scam. the only thing that changes from one scheme to another is the story that the con artist tells you to set up the whole scheme. this time a phony legal case. don't fall for it no matter what they said. i'm michael finney, 7 on your side. the devastating loma prieta earthquake happened 20 years ago friday. a look back at 9:30 with the premiere of the abc 7 special 15 seconds, 25 years later the loma prieta eth quake. we hope you can join cheryl

owl can make it in the wild. >> it's okay to release a one-eyed owl because they focus their eyes independently of each other and hunt mainly with their ears. their ears are huge underneath their feathers. >> reporter: and there's nothing wrong with its other critical hunting tools, the at that lons. both are gently lowered into boxes and driven to a safe spot for release. volunteers help with the big moment. >> tip it all the way up. >> reporter: first, the one-i'med owl makes a beeline for the trees. >> wonderful. >> reporter: but the younger owl lands in a field, still trying to decide how to handle the big outdoors. the man had who rescued him is here to root him on, grateful for the expert help that led to this moment. >> so many interactions now between humans and different animals that one way or the other they get hurt. there are places out there animals can't have that second chance. isn't that beautiful? look at that. >> reporter: dan ashley, abc 7 news. >> beautiful up there in tahoe. wildlife care has helped more
