by living off the grid. completely. or... just set the washing machine to cold. do your thing. with energy upgrade california. ch tonight "abc 7 news" digs deep into an issue that you just can't miss in san francisco

these days. that is the drug crisis. it is not just the city trying to solve it. it is everyday people, too. see something, say something. it is not as easy as it sounds. tonight, only "abc 7 news" talks to a woman who witnessed something on b.a.r.t. and did the next best thing. i'm spencer christian. the bay area's first storm of the season is arriving right now. i will show you where it is raining coming up. live where you live, this is "abc 7 news" why don't you move? >> this is my neighborhood, where i live and work. >> what is happening now is not working and we need some solutions. >> there is a drug crisis in san francisco. it is easy to spot, but not easy to fix. good evening. thank you for joining us, i'm ama daetz. >> i'm larry beil. tonight we will devote the first five minutes of the newscast to a big issue, drug use in san francisco. we will explore what it takes to make a difference. >> we will look at two

perspectives. the city, its plan to create safe injection sites got vetoed by the governor over the weekend, and the individual, people turning into vigilantes with their phones and social media. one person can't fix the problem, but the city hasn't either. >> we dedicated two reporters today looking at actions being taken by each side. let's start with "abc 7 news" reporter wayne freedman to show us what kind of difference an individual can make. >> reporter: good evening, larry. we showed you last friday night an individual with an iphone and a twitter account, documenting drug problems south of market. at the time he and others lamented that no matter how many tweets they sent, city hall wasn't paying attention. last weekend they began to get some action. business as usual, if you can call it that on the streets of san francisco south of market. >> human decay is what i would call it. >> this is real! >> it is real! it is the real deal. >> reporter: all too real for

adam meznick. on twitter he goes by @bettersonoma. another vigilante on twitter, trying to draw attention to a problem he and neighbors describe as out of control. >> they terrorize the whole neighborhood. >> reporter: they're tagging san francisco politicians who have begun to respond. this from mayor breed saying that the 311 response should move faster. what she said this morning? >> yeah, i think sadly we have a lot of the challenges that existed in san francisco for so many years. >> reporter: had mayor breed looked at the feeds this morning, she might have seen this fro notoma street, home turf of another video vigilanty called @cleanupwestsonoma. it appeared to be one man passing needles from one to another. the man misses nothing. >> we have feces and urine and people shooting up and people with machetes and children

riding bikes. >> reporter: sure enough, we saw what appeared to be a weapon in the hand of a man directly below us. >> as far as the city paying attention to us, i don't think so. $11 billion annual budget and we can't keep the street clean. >> reporter: desperate time, no end in sight and citizens feel they're working harder to clean up the neighborhood than the people elected. >> live ability. >> reporter: that's what you want? liveability, yeah. >> reporter: have you got it yet? >> we've moving in the wrong direction right now . >> reporter: when the mayor saw one of the tweets, she threw up a tweet criticizing 311, saying they needed to respond faster. that bus stop, cleaned up within two hours and that is progress. live in san francisco, wayne freedman, "abc 7 news." >> all right, wayne. thank you. and these video vigilantes are not just documentes they say. they're taking action. so can you. san francisco police say the fastest way to get a response is to call the city's narcotics tip line. that's 1-800-crack-it.

for less urgent matters, 311 is a good way to get in touch with city services. of course, in an emergency call 911. as we mentioned earlier we will look at it from two angles here, two perspective. the individual you just heard. municipal is next. governor brown just vetoed legislation that would have allowed san francisco to open the nation's first supervised drug injection site. >> "abc 7 news" reporter lyanne melendez is live from city plaza with local reaction. >> reporter: you know, solving the drug problem has and continues to be a top priority here in san francisco, and the city has invested a lot of time and energy into making these sites a possibility. until today. san francisco mayor london breed had previously toured a mock safe injection site in san francisco's tenderloin district with the expectation that the city would be the first in the nation to defy the federal government. but governor brown rejected it, saying, enabling illegal and destructive drug use will never

work. >> but we are going to continue to move forward because i think that the public is ready from something like this. >> reporter: yet breed provided no details on how the city would move forward. these sites would allow users to inject drugs under the supervision of trained medical personnel ready to assist in case of an overdose. >> on the streets there's like a higher risk for people to overdose and, you know, for there not to be, you know, supplies available for a person, you know, to bring that person back. and it is very dangerous. >> reporter: the sites would also offer counseling. other countries have had some success with these safe injection sites, yet on the other hand vancouver is on track to see more people die this year from overdoses than in the previous year. that's because more people are using fentanyl, which is deemed unsafe and toxic. laura thomas of the drug policy alliance says these sites are actually saving lives. >> if they didn't have them, the death toll would be astronomically higher.

their biggest problem is they don't have enough capacity. they don't have enough sites. >> reporter: u.s. deputy attorney general rod rosenstein recently wrote when drug users flock to a site, drug dealers follow, bringing with them violence and despair, posing a danger to neighbors and law-abiding visitors. and if it appears to be working in countries like canada, germany and amsterdam and here in the united states, of course, san francisco, philly, new york city and seattle, all of those cities have been warned by the justice department not to proceed. live in san francisco, lyanne melendez, "abc 7 news." >> lyanne, thank you. on to other news. one of the dozens of bills governor brown signed over the weekend is being challenged by the trump administration. the justice department has filed suit to stop a new law that restores net neutrality protections that the fcc killed last year. the suit claims only the federal government can regulate interstate commerce. now, the governor also signed a

bill that requires public companies to have women on corporate boards and another new law gives b.a.r.t more zoning power over its own properties and limits cities' abilities to delay or obstruct development. that law could radically alter the suburban landscape around b.a.r.t stations, giving b.a.r.t the authority to override local zoning laws to build housing. here is "abc 7 news" reporter carlos saucedo with the story from the east bay. >> reporter: the bay area is known for its housing crisis and traffic con jeks. a new law signed by governor brown aims to address both. assembly bill 2923 allows b.a.r.t to build housing and shops out of empty station parking lots. >> we need to build morehousing that's affordable to working families in the immediate vicinity of the b.a.r.t stations. >> reporter: 250 acres of surface parking lots around 26 b.a.r.t stations would be looked at for more than 30,000 new homes. >> it will be up to b.a.r.t to decide exactly the mix of units, but at least 20% of all units

need to be affordable at every individual site and across all of b.a.r.t's transit-oriented development 30% of the units need to be affordable. >> reporter: supporters say it would elevate the quality of life for many bay area residents who would be able to afford to live near a b.a.r.t station and use public transit to get to and from work. the law lets the transit agency zone its property and limits a city's ability to interfere. opponents say housing decisions should be left up to cities. >> this isn't about whether to build housing. it is who are the best entities to do that and take the lead, and i would say that b.a.r.t already has enough problems. >> reporter: assembly woman catherine baker voted against the bill. she says cities like dublin have done a great job at adding housing units near transit hubs without leaving it up to b.a.r.t. still, the consensus now is that b.a.r.t must work collaboratively with cities to fast-track the housing development. in dublin, carlos saucedo, "abc 7 news." well, it is hard to believe,

we are back on storm watch. rain is expected to arrive in the north bay tonight and gradually move south tomorrow. a live look outside across the bay area shows dry roads. san jose still has blue sky there. "abc 7 news" weather anchor spencer christian is tracking the storm. >> all right. it is beginning to arrive. here is a look at live doppler 7. you see a large batch of moisture pushing on shore in the north bay, so some wet spots developing down to san rafael. we will give you closer look at rainfall amount later. here is the storm by way of satellite. you see it spinning off-shore. it ranks only one on the storm impact scale. a storm of light intensity, expected to produce light to moderate showers overnight and into tomorrow. i will show you where the wettest spots will be in a few minute. larry and ama. >> we'll see you then. a yale law school classmate of judge brett kavanaugh is talking only to "abc 7 news." >> if he just said something like that, but now he is just lying about the little things, the medium things and the big

things. >> next, why this retired lawyer from hillsborough is changing her mind about the newest supreme court justice, the nominee. >> and the supreme court refused to hear a case involving a section of is a mateo county coastline. for some that meant their protest turned into a party. what does your phone know about you and who is it telling? i'm michael

minutes can mean the difference between life and death. proposition 11 saves lives by ensuring medical care is not delayed in an emergency.

he was from modesto. he lived in san jose as an adult. he was 64 years old. he suffered a heart attack just over a week ago. years ago romero spoke with "abc 7 news" reporter about his memories of the day that rfk was assassinated. re g o told us aboutromero's death. >> today marks the start of the supreme court's new term, and there are only eight justices on the bench. the high court is short one justice because judge brett kavanaugh's nomination remains in limbo while the fbi investigates allegations of sexual misconduct against him. "abc 7 news" reporter explains from washington. >> reporter: president trump says he wants the fbi to investigate anyone within reason in the sexual misconduct allegations made against supreme court nominee brett kavanaugh. >> i think the fbi should do what they have to do to get to the answer. now, with that being said, i would like it to go quickly. >> reporter: the fbi has been given just one week to complete its background investigation.

lawyers from deborah ramirez say fbi investigators have spoken to her but so far she is the only one of the three-named accusers to be interviewed. >> should the fbi interview all three of brett kavanaugh's accusers? >> it wouldn't bother me at all. now, it depend. i don't know all three of the accusers. certainly i imagine they're going to interview two. if there is any credibility, interview the third one. >> should brett kavanaugh be interviewed by the fbi? >> think so. i think it is fine if they to. i don't know. >> reporter: around the country, protesters rallying around the accusers are urging the fbi to follow every lead. republican senator jeff flake says he is pushing for a thorough investigation. >> it does no good to have an investigation that just gives us more cover. >> reporter: flake's support will be crucial to kavanaugh who vehemently denies all accusations. >> it is a jury of three. it comes to jeff flake, lisa murkowski and susan collins. the question is whether they conclude he should not be supported. >> reporter: president trump left the door open if the fbi does find something.

>> the person that takes that position is going to be there for a long time. i have a very open mind. >> reporter: more americans found dr. blasey ford's testimony more credible than judge kavanaugh's according to a new poll by quinnipiac. there's a major difference when it comes to gender. 37% of women support confirmation compared to 49% of men. lana zac, "abc 7 news", washington. >> today the fbi contacted one of kavanaugh's yale ludington said he was not honest when it calm to his can say whe never blacked out from drinking and in down playing his drinking brett has not told the true. a bay area woman who went to yale law school is kavanaugh is speaking out, she says because of untruth that president trump and his nominee continue to tell or insinuate. >> and she sat down exclusively

with "abc 7 news" abcor kristen sze. it is a fascinating story. >> yes, i talked with three yale school classmates. one got off the phone quickly. another one said people are staying quiet for now, waiting to see how the fbi investigation turns out. one woman from the peninsula who initially did not want to talk now wants to shine a spotlight on what she calls lies told by kavanaugh and about kavanaugh. >> they were athletic. they played basketball, and they were, yeah, kind of bros. >> lesley ragsdale went to yale law school with judge brett kavanaugh, class of 1990. the retired lawyer from hillsborough says when kavanaugh was first nominated she asked to sign two competing petitions, one for him, one against. she signed neither. >> prior to the hearing you did not want to go on camera and talk about kavanaugh. what changed for you? >> what changed for me was the hearing and listening to his anger and his falsehoods.

it is just -- i realize he is a different person than the one that i thought i knew. >> reporter: she says one falsehood was when kavanaugh testified that the drinking age in maryland at the time was 18. in reality, by the time he was 18 the drinking age was 21. she also objects to the characterization by the president and the nominee that kavanaugh was a top student and had no connections. his grandfather went to yale. >> i got into yale law school. it is the number one law school in the country. i have no connections there. i got there by busting my tail. >> he was number one in his law school at yale. >> if you were to name like the people that you think are going to go places from your law school class, right? there's not that many of us. he would not have been in my top 50. >> reporter: she says she also expected kavanaugh to be a stickler for facts because they worked on the respected yale law journal together. >> legal scholars submit articles and we decide what we want published.

>> reporter: being part of the yale law journal, kavanaugh would have been well-versed on fact finding? >> yes, definitely. that was a huge part of our job. for every single footnote, you fact check it. you fact check it. >> reporter: it is important to note ragsdale says she never witnessed kavanaugh acting inappropriately with women and she never witnessed any of his drinking as told by others who knew him much better. >> what are her politics and could she have supported brett kavanaugh if she felt he was being more truthful in his testimony? >> well, she's not politically active. having said that, she admits that their viewpoints are quite opposite when it comes to political issues. however, she figured that president trump was going to nominate somebody conservative anyway and she thought, well, at least with kavanaugh you have a known quantity and a decent guy. but her view on his decency changed during the hearing. to answer your question, yes, she said she could potentially support him if she deemed him honest, if he owned up to mistakes of his youth but doesn't feel he has done that.

>> interesting. insightful. thank you, kristen. time to turn to the weather. if you have been outside, you know things are changing quickly. >> it has started raining a little more since we went on the air at 6:00. here is a look at live doppler 7. we have a large batch of moisture off-shore and a little moved onshore around santa rosa and moving down in marnts of marin county as well. steady rain will come later. cloudy skies over the bay from our sutro tower camera. it is 66 degrees here in san francisco. oakland, 65. 71 at mountain view. san jose, 73. 77, morgan hill. 61 at half moon bay. here is another view of the same clouds from mount tam and a couple of raindrops hit the lens on the camera there. it is 66 in santa rosa. napa, 69. novato, 70. 78 in vacaville. the view from emeryville looking westward, and these are the forecast features, this is the first storm of the season arriving tonight. wet morning commute is likely,

remainder of the bay area will be dry. high temperatures as we get into the afternoon areas ranging from mid 60s at the coast to low and mid 70s around the bay and upper 70s to near 80 degrees inland. here is the accuweather seven day forecast. we may have a lingering shower wednesday morning, but after that partly sunny on wednesday and thursday. it will start warming up at the end of the week, and over the weekend look for sunny skies and high temperatures in the mid 80s inland. >> thank you, spencer. >> you saw dan was out playing golf. so we're watching others -- or helping others play golf. mindi is here handling sports. safe to say the raiders don't win without beast mode yesterday. >> they don't. he says very little yet he speaks so loudly. he makes a lot of noise. marshawn lynch had enough of the losing. jon gruden

now abc 7 sports with mindi bach. >> one of the biggest factors that led to the raiders overcoming their second half struggles and picking up first win of the season can be summed up in two words, beast mode. he erupted for 104 of his 130 rushing yards in his second half against cleveland. at 32, marshawn lynch is still one of the hardest players to bring down. 254 of his 300 rushing yards this season have come after contact. >> that's not hall of fame back, i don't know what is. honestly. i mean what he did yesterday,

he's done since he's been here is incredible. you know, he wants the ball more and more and more. some of the runs, good night. it is unbelievable. i don't see many guys in football running like this. >> well, that's it for today. >> answered questions after a fire alarm disrupted the start of his monday press conference. after losing jimmy garoppolo for this season, more alarming a brutal hit season bedford took sunday. they only have one other quarterback available and he never played in the nfl. shanahan says other injury concerns take priority. >> i mean i would love to answer the quarterback situation for everyone because you do want a third one in your building, whether it is practice quad or on the roster. but there's a lot of things that are taking precedent right now. i'm not sure our left tackle,

right tackle or center, both of our safeties, you know. it is a real unusual roster situation. >> wild card wednesday between the a's and yankees will feature the two offenses that led the american league in home runs this season, but the player that hit more home runs than anyone else this year wears green and gold. chris davis led the majors with 48 home runs five more than anyone else. he not only hits for power, he is consistent. for the fourth straight year, davis ended the season with a .247 batting average, and according to elias sports bureau no player has ever done that. bob melvin admits it is strange. >> it feels like if we had ten more at bats it would have remained there the way his last couple of years have gone. it is almost impossible to do. the power numbers have gone up. he is a better hitter, even though the average looks the same. i can't explain that. baseball gods obviously want him to hit .247. >> the dodgers hosted the rockies for a one-game tie breaker to decide who will win the nl west. bottom of the fourth, bellinger

breaks a scoreless time with this two-run home run, 25th of the season. in the bottom of the fifth, matt muncie. he popped a two-run shot himself. that's his 35th of the season. dodgers end up with the division title for a sixth straight season with a 5-2 win. colorado will play in tomorrow's wild card game. so rockies play the loser of this game, cubs and brewers, also needing a one-game tie breaker to determine the winner of the nl central. tied at one in the eight. kane came through. bottom of the ninth, anthony rizzo, tying run with two out. it did not win the way he hoped. brewers take the central with 3-1 win. the cubs host the wild card game against colorado. >> give me the ice cream. ice cream sand witch! >> mission accomplished, baby. >> yes, steph curry has mad

skills when it comes to scoring ice cream. he shared a video of he and his wife chasing down the ice cream man in vallejo. release your inner child, steph curry. he has no fun, i tell you. >> not at all. >> he sounded almost crazed when he said ice cream. >> i know, exactly. what do you think the ice cream truck reaction was when he came up? >> anything you want. >> unbelievable. the truck is yours. thank you, mindi. >> well, join us tonight at 9:00 on kofi tv 20, cable 713. a gender reveal party that turned into a massive informationest fire. how much dad is on the hook for tonight at 9:00. then on "abc 7 news" at 11:00, b.a.r.t may have a problem with crack down of fare evaders. why they can't ticket the cheats at six of the station goes. on abc 7 at 8:00, it is "dancing with the stars", followed at 10:00 by "the good doctor" and stay with us at 11:00 for "abc 7 news" at 11:00. tonight's guest on "jimmy

kimmel live" is henry winkler and jenny slate. >> that is going to do it for this edition of "abc 7 news." look for breaking news any time on the "abc 7 news" app. i'm ama daetz. >> i'm larry beil. for spencer, mindi and all of us here at "abc 7 news", have a good night. hope to see you at 9:00 and 11:00.
