lunchtime. bright sunshine in the afternoon with inland temperatures hitting the mid-80s around the bay, the mid-70s. and at the coast, the mid-60s. sunset at 7:14. and big changes coming up tomorrow. thank you, frances. a woman was injured after a speech at uc berkeley said she was attacked by violent protesters. she and police agree that the accounts of a stabbing were false. but this morning she claims something else happened. abc 7's reporter shows us the incident caught on camera. >> reporter: this is video from sky 7 thursday night on telegraph avenue. and this is celeste paradise looking at the video for the first time after ben shapiro finished his speech and paradise who was a republican was holding the scene when someone suddenly snatched it from her. we have highlighted and zoomed

in on the moment the woman runs away with the sign. you can see paradise chases her and then suddenly falls. >> i was not simply pushed, i was grabbed and thrown down. >> paradise swears at least two people hurt her. she says they tossed her on the ground so hard she had a mild concussion. but this is what berkeley police posted on twitter about it. she fell and wasn't pushed. no fight. that is what she told us at the scene. these are the actual facts. no one from the department would comment but paradise is outraged by the statement. >> they said i didn't trip but i know what i felt. and people were yelling, we will eff you up and stuff. >> reporter: this man was there and didn't see what happened, but he does think that the police are purposely downplaying the incident. >> i think their attempt was they are trying to prove they can have a no incident event.

>> reporter: lisa for abc 7 news. the group hosting a series of conservative speakers later this month has not paid a required security deposit or confirmed details. but the berkeley patriot organization turned in a contract for the free speech week, but the school spokesperson said the group never put down the deposit on friday as required in the contract for security purposes. the four-day event is planned to start a week from today. the university says the group still has time to pay up, confirm schedules and speakers and comply with security requirements. rescue crews from the bay area who helped the response after hurricane irma are now back home. abc 7 news was at oakland international airport last night with a round of applause
