in an area like the thomas fire burn scar. this was falling at an incredible rate in an area with lack of vegetation, loose soil, nothing to soak up the rain, and water rushing downhill. factors that increased the possibility of flooding and mudsliding. in this case, a deadly result. >> thank you very much. in napa, highway 121 is open again after a landslide that pushed a car off the road. sadly, it killed the driver. the "napa valley register" reports the driver was 22-year-o 22-year-old hernan reyes geres. caltrans says wild horse valley road is safe, but in a burn zone drivers should be very careful. >> reporter: it's a long way down. a beautiful spot, a sad story on highway 121 along the back side of napa. a sad case of bad timing and worse luck at the bottom of a ravine. >> a car got hit by a rock and

landslide and got taken over the edge of a cliff. >> reporter: a cold recitation of facts from the california highway patrol. the large boulder swept in green toyota 100 feet down. >> it appeared it might have hit on the driver door, but the driver door was also impacted on a rock down there. >> reporter: even now, no one knows how big the boulder is or where it wound up. we know it landed here, it left a dent in the roadway and came from way up there. you see the broken tree -- the boulder lit it -- boulder hit ie way down. pulling the car up took hours with the victim still inside. cal fire had been to the scene last night after a witness called. when they found the driver already dead, first responders left him there for fear that more boulders might come down on them. >> obviously if there is somebody to rescue, we would have continued our efforts. we've got to be safe at the same time. >> reporter: caltrans says it has sent a geologist up the slope to check for lingering danger.

this is a burn area and known slide zone. the agency report it as now being stable. >> obviously with the weather coming, there may be more acts of nature coming. all we can do is prepare the best we can. >> reporter: with the car hauled up and the victim taken away, highway 121 has reopened. for now, the end of a story about a solo driver in the wrong place at precisely the wrong time. abc7 news. new at 6:00, berkeley police hope you can recognize the two people on the left of the screen who shot and robbed a man. the victim is recovering from being wounded in the leg after being attacked on vine street near bonita avenue on december 5th. detectives say both robbers wore dark color, hooded sweatshirts and appeared to drive a white chevy impal a. new information in the case of an uber driver who went missing last year. it's now a homicide investigation. officials confirmed the remains found in a warehouse last june

family. we spoke with the current and former k-9 hostagers from sfpd and other law enforcement agencies about the order to euthanize the dog. all were angry at the decision. most agreed that the deputy chief in charge of the k-9 unit probably followed the letter of the law he violated its spirit. here's what happened thursday. the officer noticed kavik acting strangely after a full day of training wednesday. he took his k-9 to the norcal veterinary hospital in daly city. the veterinarian said he was bleeding internally, possibly with a ruptured tumor, and that the dog needed exploratory surgery to determine if he had cancer. a procedure that could cost up to $8,000. the other choice would be to put him down. either way, the decision had to be made quickly. the officer reported the findings to his superiors. according to our sources, the officer asked the deputy chief to retire the dog to him. those sources tell us the chief

said no, that the process could take too long, and the medical costs too great. he ordered the dog euthanized. the dog was put to sleep later this afternoon. k-9 officers we spoke with told us a memorial fund established in memory of sergeant darrell chichimoro, a k-9 officer who died during a training exercise, could have paid for the surgery and other medical costs. it's administered by the spca and is funded to the tune of $1 million and was set up specifically to care for retired police k-9s. sfpd released a second statement late this afternoon following our inquiries. "the decision to euthanize cavik was not made lightly and was done in consideration of the suffering that he was experiencing. all of us mourn the loss of a loyal and valued member of our department." no one we spoke with -- and again, there were more than half a dozen current and former k-9 officers -- would go on camera. they spoke freely about how they

felt. several had spoken with officer maciel and told us how emotional it was for him and his wife and children to have lost a member of their family. everyone agreed there should have been a better conclusion. vic lee, abc7 news. new at 6:00, abc7 news has learned the faa is investgating another incident at sfo. this one involving an air mexico flight that almost landed on the wrong runway. >> 668 san francisco tower, runway 28 r cleared to land. >> the flight was cleared to land around 8:40 yesterday. the plane lined up on the runway to the left of it, 28 left. so on that runway was a virgin america flight filled with passengers. faa controllers spotted the mistake about one mile from the airport. >> 668, go around.
