[ siren ] good samaritans 200 miles away bring an end to a san jose amber alert. their efforts to make sure the suspect didn't go anywhere. protesters camp out in front of pg&e, demanding accountability as the utility faces a looming deadline for restructuring. goodbye sun. hello gray. how long you have until rain returns to the bay area. >> now news to build a better bay area from abc7. >> my heart was just pounding. it was unbelievable. >> new video tonight showing the moment good samaritans surrounded the san jose man suspected of stabbing his ex-girlfriend and kidnapping their daughter. good evening. i'm dan ashley. >> and i'm kristen sze.

thank you for joining us. the suspect was spotted 200 miles away at a gas station in cambria. here you see police surrounding him on the ground after good samaritans put him in a headlock and blocked his car in. >> inside the car the man's daughter. glad to say she was safe. abc7 news reporter david louie is live in san jose with this really frightening story all began. david? >> well, this very dramatic and violent story started right here at this house on reed street in san jose. the neighbors heard screams late last night as the father of the 2-year-old girl apparently grabbed the girl after stabbing the girl's mother. the father then drove 200 miles to the south before being spotted. >> they detained him until police got there and took him into custody and the girl is safe. >> that was the good news as alert patrons of a gas statio in cambria recognized the vehicle. as luck would have it, the kidnap suspect victor magana had locked the keys inside the vehicle. his 2-year-old daughter bethanie

carraza was safe inside. bethanie became an apparent kidnap victim after her mother was stabbed outside her san jose home. neighbors became concerned around 10:00 p.m. sunday night. >> my roommate was saying she was yelling help, help, he is going to kill me. my roommate saw her hopping over the fence. >> they and paramedics found the mother slumped over the trump of torres' parked car. she remains in critical condition but stable. with the father in custody and the mother hospitalized, it's expected the child will be turned over to child protective services until an appropriate next of kin can be located and the background of the person checked. the process could take days. >> it's not a fast process. it requires screening to make sure what the placement is safe. so i think our local child welfare system through the local services agency tries to do what is the least traumatic and the most culturally informed way to help the family. >> at next door solution, a nonprofit solution that supports victims of domestic abuse, a

major concern is what trauma the child may have suffered from the mother's stabbing. neighbors say they're happy that the child was found quickly by people made aware of the situation by the amber alert. >> i'm thankful that they found the little girl and that they arrested the person who did the crime. >> if you've ever wondered whether amber alerts can make a difference, this proves they certainly do. those gas station patients in cambria not only detained the suspect, but they also blocked in his vehicle so he couldn't get away until sheriff's deputies could arrive. we're live in san jose, david louie, abc7 news. >> all right, david, thank you. a stalemate with a looming deadline. in less than 24 hours, pg&e must submit a new restructuring plan after their first was rejected by governor newsom on friday. abc7 news reporter kris reyes is live for was the details. kris? >> good evening, kristen. good evening, dan. last week pg&e reached a $13.5 billion settlement with fire

victims. and that would have allowed them to meet a crucial summer deadline to emerge out of bankruptcy. now they have to scramble for a new deal or potentially lose access to much needed state funds. >> i think it is terrific that governor newsom rejected pg&e's proposal to end bankruptcy because it was inadequate. >> mark tunie is one of many advocates who wants to see pg&e held accountable for crippling blackouts and wildfires in recent years. another group demanding accountability camped out in protest at pg&e's san francisco headquarters monday afternoon. >> i'm here with the power to live coalition, because disabled people and seniors have been dying because of fires and power outages, and that has to stop. >> on friday, governor newsom rejected the utility company's restructuring plan, saying it did not comply with state law, and it did not go far enough in improving safety, corporate governance, and the company's financial position. pg&e had this to say.

we believe our restructuring plan meets the requirements of assembly bill 1054. we will continue to work diligently in the coming days to resolve any issues. >> it's more important to reach a settlement that is complete rather than reaching one just to make it quick. >> pg&e's equipment has been linked to 2017 and 2018 fires that killed about 130 people and destroyed approximately 28,000 structures in its service territory. if the utility company can't reach a deal with victims, it stands to lose access to the state's wildfire liability fund. >> we are so glad that the governor is paying attention to this issue and holding pg&e accountable. and we need more of that. we need the california public utilities commission to also step up. >> ab-1054 gives the statewide ranging powers, including having a say over executive pay, safety checks, over utility companies. it was adopted last july. now we're going to wait to see

what the governor says on tuesday about pg&e's new plan. live in san francisco, i'm kris reyes for abc7 news. >> thanks very much. a controversial homeless shelter along san francisco's embarcadero is set to open soon. abc7 news contributor and chronicle insider phil matier reports the first residents will start arriving by the end of the month. the shelter near the bay bridge will house up to 200 people. neighbors who have fought against the navigation center argue it will bring more drugs and crime to the area. police say they're setting up a two-block safety zone around the center to keep loiterers, homeless encampments, and drug use away from that area. a court decision that makes it harder for cities to clear homeless encampments will not be reviewed by the supreme court. justices today left in place a ruling that struck down a boise, idaho ordinance. that ruling by an appeals court held that boise could not make it a crime for homeless people to sleep on the street when no alternative shelter is

available. that court found that the ordinance violated a constitutional ban on cruel and unusual punishment. well, after a couple of days of dry weather, the rain will be making its return. >> it sure will. drum drew tuma is here. >> a lot of sunshine today, temperatures in the upper 50s. very december-like out there. but changes already arriving in our sky. our emeryville camera was pointed upwards to the evening sky as the sun was going down. he already notices baby blue skies taken over by high clouds. all in advance of our next storm system. live doppler 7 along with satellite, say bye-bye to high pressure that brought us the sunshine. that front moves in here early wednesday morning. so on the storm impact scale, it's a level 1 light system on wednesday. the timing, though, will certainly be an issue, especially for the wednesday morning commute. we're going to go hour by hour breakdown. it's one of two we are tracking this week in the full accuweather, guys, in a few minutes.

shattuck and make downtown more pedestrian friendly. a big problem along california's coastline. the new study revealing how acidic the water is, and what that means for the seafood industry. plus -- >> another vehicle hit by a projectile on highway 101. i'm chris nguyen in monterey county with more on what the chp is doing about it. and thousands of kaiser permanente workers now on strike, and also more on the story of the little girl who has been found after an amber alert.

boeing will temporarily stop producing its grounded 737 max jets starting next month. the company says it will halt

production at its plant in renton, washington 15 miles southeast of seattle. but it's not expecting any layoffs there. the move comes as boeing struggles to get approval from regulators to put that plane back in the air. the max has been grounded since march after crashes in ethiopia and indonesia that killed a total of 346 people. the attacks on cars continue on popular highways that connect the bay area and the central coast. more than 60 vehicles have been hit by projectiles on highways 101 and 156. on saturday, six vehicles were hit in a six-minute span. abc7 news reporter chris nguyen has the story now from monterey county. >> tonight a community gripped by fear. the california highway patrol confirms at least 62 vehicles have been hit by projectiles in monterey county since february, including six calls on saturday night. the majority of calls have been reported on highways 101 and 156 through bruindale south of

strikes. >> pay attention to the overpass as i come under them, and i watch the cars next to me. if somebody else gets hit, you don't know if they're going to start weaving around in the road. >> in monterey county, chris nguyen, abc7 news. >> it's really unnerving, as you can understand. sky 7 was over the scene of a fire at an apartment complex in san pablo today. the fire burned two apartments on the first and second floors of the building. seven people now have to find another place to live. fortunately, no one was injured. thousands of kaiser permanente mental health employees are now on strike in the bay area and across the state. the main issue, patient care. anser hassan has the story. >> what do we do? >> after a year and a half of negotiations failed, thousands of kaiser mental health professionals are taking to the picket line, demanding better health care for patients. >> teenagers who are struggling with depression, trauma, serious anxiety should not have to wait

at the bargaining table. he highlights kaiser's recent investments. >> we've invested $500 million in additional staffing. i know that we've put another $500 million into the budget for next year. i know that we've invested $700 million in new facilities. >> unless the two sides agree to meet, the strike will go through friday. in san francisco, anser hassan, abc7 news. well, californians now have more time to sign up for health insurance plans. covered california today announced it's extended its deadline through friday for plans that take effect january 1. yesterday was the original deadline. covered california officials say they extended it after seeing a strong surge in enrollment last week. a new state mandate requires all california residents to have health insurance coverage next year. let's turn our attention to the weather forecast. the gray skies are about to produce rain around here. >> that's right. how many hours do we have left? >> about 24 hours.

53 in san jose and napa a little cooler coming in with a temperature of 57 degrees. overnight the numbers continue to fall as our cloud cover continues to increase. a lot of 30s away from the coastline. the coast is breezy. and temperature-wise around the bay shoreline, we'll hold in the low and mid-40s over the next 12 hours. tuesday looks like this. cloud cover first thing. temperatures starting out in the 30s and 40s. and throughout the day, it's limited sunshine. that cloud cover continues to thicken. by 4:00, temperatures pretty much normal for this time of the year in the middle of december. mid- to upper 50s across the region. so highs on your tuesday. it's dry during the daylight hours. 58 the high in oakland under mostly cloudy skies. 59 in san jose. 56 in the city. 57 in santa rosa. and antioch also up to 56 degrees. the rain comes back here on wednesday. the storm impact scale, it's a level 1 light system. we'll track light to moderate rain. rainfall will most likely fall between a quarter and 3/4 of an
