joins us now with more on how the governors are responding to th this. liz? >> reporter: the governors are taking a different stance on how to approach this than president trump who called himself the law and order president. governor newsom said he rejected trump's call for aggression over the protesters. speaking from a black church inr newsom offered support and empathy for the protesters outraged following the death of george floyd one week ago today. >> you are right to feel wronged. you are right to feel the way you are feeling. >> reporter: while newsom called on the looting and the violence to stop, his tone was one of resolve. he said society as a whole needs t do better and do more to end systemic racism. >> the black community is not responsible for what's happening in this country right now. we are. we are. our institutions are responsible. we are accountable to this

moment. let just call that out. >> reporter: newsom's remarks a contrast to president trump who on a call with state governors this morning called some governors weak and pushed for more aggressive tactics to stop the protesters. here is audio obtained by abc. >> you have to dominate. if you don't dominate, you're wasting your time. they're going to run over you, you're going to look like a bunch of jerks. you have to dominate and you have to arrest people and you have to try people and they have to go it jail for long periods of time. >> reporter: newsom stayed away from directly responding to president trump. asked why, he said this. >> i could be part of the daily back and forth in the news cycle and continue to perpetuate the problems that persist in this country or i can choose to focus a message that i think is so much more powerful. and i hope more resonant, to people watching. and that is, i care more about them than some of the noise i heard on a morning phone call. >> reporter: still newsom had his more subtle rebukes. he said there is a current

absence the leadership and he said the answer to violence is not more violence. >> it's about dominance and aggression? this is what you get. not because of the protesters but because of the conditions that led to this moment. where protest was inevitable. >> reporter: but to that point, governor newsom says there's 4,500 national guard mguardsmen women in california. he said at this point there's no talk of a statewide curfew. liz kreutz, abc 7 news. >> liz, what did the governor have to say about what else the state is going to do to respond to additional protests tonight and perhaps later this week? >> reporter: ama, he said there's a lot of support if a region asks for it. he mentioned the national guard could be deployed. he says he won't send them in unless a city asks for it,

because he believes you cannot proactively send them in without creating more problems than already exists. ama? >> liz, thank you so much. a hollywood actor joined a peaceful protest on the steps of san francisco city hall. jamie foxx sang words from the bible to comfort the crowd gathered to protest the death of george employed. foxx says the officers in floyd's death were complicit in the death. >> as i'm talking to my young kids, my nephews, my daughters, trying to tell them how to act when they're out there and they see a police officer, i'm sort of running out of things to tell them. >> foxx called on the rest of hollywood step up and show their support through peaceful protests as well. in walnut creek, police and business owners are trying to head off a repeat of yet's

destructive looting that left much of the downtown area damaged. abc 7 news reporter laura anthony is at the station. laura, we're hearing it's a peaceful protest today behind you. >> reporter: it is for the most part although there have been some splinter groups that have gone on and done different things. larry told you about the freeway, 680 north and southbound, i understand now from walnut creek police it's stopped in both direction and there have been some vandalism of stopped cars along the highway. the chp has had to declare tear gas there. we are behind the walnut creek police station. this is a scene that's been unfolding over the last couple of hours. you see these heavily armed tactical police, basically s.w.a.t. teams. these protesters have been lined up in front of them for the last two hours yelling at them, deplori imploring them to take a knee with them.

a few moments ago one of the officers did just that. in the meantime, businesses here boarding up, getting prepared for whatever happens next. while some cleaned up, others beefed up their exteriors in walnut creek's broadway plaza and other parts of the town. the unusual activity comes one day after a group of destructive looters descended on the high end shopping district. macy's, h&m, victoria's secret, and the gap were among stores vandalized and looted. >> it's just terrible, the injustices. but there's other ways to get the message across rather than to come here just to loot, which is exactly what they did. >> reporter: today this family came down to broadway plaza with brooms in hand to try to clean up what the looters left behind. >> we understand why it happened. people get angry and we understand that. but we also know that it now needs to be cleaned up. and

>> reporter: meantime, up the road on north main, two of the city's car dealerships were taking no chances, moving their entire inventory, hundreds of vehicles, off the lots at both the ford and honda stores. streets around the area have also been cordoned off and a large contingent of police and emergency vehicles staged at the local library in anticipation what have might come next. five miles south in danville, business owners are also boarding up their windows. >> you've heard the same chatter. >> reporter: that includes aaron, the owner of danville cigar an harts avenue. >> we appreciate and understand first amendment rights and the right to protest. in walnut creek. this has been a very emotional scene. you can see the line of police officers, the protesters in front of them, and in just the last few minutes, one of the officers did do what they've been askin past couple of hours and he took

a knee with them. there is a curfew in effect as we speak now here in walnut creek. it went into effect at 6:00. at this point it doesn't appear police are going to at least aggressively enforce that. i would say by our estimate there are at least 1,500 demonstrators here and at this point they have split off into these different groups but by and large, it's been peaceful except for what's going on apparently on interstate 680. live in walnut creek, laura anthony, abc 7 news. >> all right, laura, thank you. san francisco police shared arrest numbers this morning following weekend protesters. melanie woodrow has more. >> police chief scott reminded everyone why they were there, george floyd's death. chief scott says the protest in

san francisco started peacefully but others were there to take advantage. sfpd arrested 30 people saturday night, 19 have been referred to the san francisco district attorney's office which tells me charging decisions will be made tomorrow. last night, san francisco police arrested 87 people for violating the curfew. as of this morning, the san francisco sheriff's office said 23 of those people remained at the intake center. police did not provide exactly details of the nature of all of the arrests. >> we embrace, in the city of san francisco, people to express themselves. we will not embrace violence. >> reporte >> the alameda county sheriff's office got back to me, telling me they arrested 76 people last night. in the newsroom, melanie woodrow, abc 7 news. >> all right, melanie, thank you so much. in the north bay, santa rosa is recovering from a weekend of

angry protests and saw another today but with a better outcome and also a strong statement of support from the local police chief. more now from abc 7 news reporter wayne freedman. >> reporter: in santa rosa's courthouse square today, a point of protest over george floyd and in the process, a case of comparison and contrast to other demonstrations here. last weekend, they got out of control, leading to more scenes of looting and damaged property and, according to police chief navarro, one arrest. >> we've seen a lot of vandalism >> reporter: now a can yurfew fr santa sa startgt 8:0t'ng sicken going down the same path at other businesses. >> reporter: diana rhodes had to be told what the letters stood for but spent this morning scrubbing them off the window where she works. >> there's not another way for

people to express their feelings, and that makes me sad. he she began joy o'dell felt organizing this protest. >> i don't think that's the way to go about anything. we're fighting violence and trying to end that situation for our community. we shouldn't be inflicting it. >> reporter: college students turned out today plus chief navarro who made a strong statement on his own by taking a knee with everyone else here in response to george floyd's death. >> it's horrible. it sheds a bad light on everybody who wears a badge. i want people to know, that is not us. >> reporter: it was one more message in a time overflowing with them. in santa rosa, wayne freedman, abc 7 news. and we have a lot of resources on abc7news.com including a full list of all the bay area curfews. up next, the clue authorities are looking at in the shooting death of this federal security officer. also the protest drive that's helping keep people away from each other during the pandemic. and some people are putting

their efforts into cleaning up in the wake of this protest. i'm spencer christian. it's getting hot again, triple-digit temperatures are on the way. i'll have the accuweather

federal investigators are looking for this van that was captured on surveillance cameras as the occupants opened fire friday night at the federal building in oakland, killing a security officers. i-team's dan noyes was first to identify the victim over the weekend. he's back with the latest on the hunt for the killers. dan? >> reporter: larry, law enforcement sources tell me they are concerned that the people in the van may have beennnn to the protests or emboldened by the chaos. they say they have to stop them before they strike again. david vasquez went to high school with pat underwood, the security officer at the federal building who was gunned down. >> i fell to my knees and said,

god, of all people, why him? he was so good to a lot of people. >> reporter: vasquez is also a pastor, now preparing for a funeral and trying to console pat underwood's fiance. >> it was devastating. the family is broken because we know what kind of person pat was. pat would not hurt a fly. >> reporter: underwood died in the hail of gunfire at 9:45 p.m. sources telling me his partner was shot three times but survived with a shattered femur. the surveillance cameras at the fed building captured that image but not a license plate, apparently. the fbi, atf, and oakland police are scouring the area for other surveillance cameras, traffic cameras, and looking at news helicopter video from the protest for that white van. >> i was very close with his family and very close with his friends. he would do anything for anybody. >> reporter: i also spoke today with another of pat underwood's lifelong friends. pat was her brother's best man, now genie rickets still can't believe he's gone. >> it's senseless.

he was standing there trying to protect everybody. he wouldn't have hurt anybody. >> reporter: and people out there that are doing senseless crimes and looting, i just want you to picture, when you see pat's face, he stood for justice. he stood for peace. he stood for equality. pat underwould todunderwood's s canceled a news conference for southern california for tomorrow but she tells me her family is planning a service in the bay area on june 12.dan noyes, abc . >> dan, thank you. sky7 now over walnut creek. protesters had shut down a portion of interstate 680 near treat boulevard after getting onto the northbound lanes. that was about 30 minutes ago. only seconds ago, it looks like that the chp -- well, this is another location now that we're looking at, that i believe is i creek, but the freeway has just opened up as the protesters have been cleared away.

there was a group -- when i was in the newsroom it looked like a bunch of kids who were jumping around and they were pretty happy with themselves as they got traffic to stop. but that group apparently had broken away from a peaceful demonstration that you saw laura anthony at in downtown walnut creek which has been going on for much of the afternoon, that follows last night's looting in the broadway shopping plaza. again, traffic on 680 is back and moving. we'll see what this situation is right here because police obviously have drawn the line at one intersection but we need to get more information on exactly where they are. you can see it is 680, could be that they're just trying to make sure that nobody else tries to make a run for it and stop traffic once again, th we'll kee a continue. the curfew is in effect right now in walnut creek until 5:00 a.m. and as the judge floyd protests continue across the bay area, there is another question

a lot of people are thinking about now. could all of this congregating lead to a surge in covid cases? abc 7 news reporter stephanie sierra spoke with the director of public health at ucsf. >> the issue here is how to protest safely. >> reporter: this is dr. george rutherford, ucsf's director of prevention and public health. his research into the spread of covid-19 is recognized across the country. >> how to decrease your chances of becoming infected while out in crowds. >> reporter: dr. rutherford says the virus could be spread if masks aren't worn properly. >> people are yelling slogans, that's more forceful exhalation, it cuts down on the efficiency of the mask at holding particles. >> reporter: second, if crowds are not social distancing. over the weekend, video of protests across the bay area clearly shows that isn't

happening. even oakland mayor libby schaaf admitted she's terrified of the virus spreading. >> people cannot afford to get sick and many of the impacts last night were in the very neighborhoodss that have been disproportionately impacted. >> reporter: the third fear revolves around pepper gas and tear gas. >> people tend to rub their eyes, and the virus can be inoculated. >> reporter: the longer protests continue, the greater likelihood of a spike, which is why, moving forward, compliance is key. >> we need voluntary willingness to do the right thing, law abiding people to follow the laws. >> reporter: and right now the law means wear your mask. >> if they don't wear their masks, this will definitely translate into higher numbers. >> reporter: governor newsom referenced covid-19.ca.gov where you can put in your zip code and

find the closest testing site to you. we have that on our site, abc7news.com. stephanie sierra, abc 7 news. crews were scrubbing in san jose, trying to clean up the vandalism during weekend protests. mayor sam liccardo joined other city leaders to pass out anti-litter and graffiti kits. volunteers are doing their part to clean up the city. >> we're doing our protesting and cleaning up after people who are expressing themselves in another way. >> this is is the community rising up to say we're not going to allow people to use a peaceful protest in this way to damage our city, to loot our businesses. we're going to stand up for our community. >> the cleanup effort will continue tomorrow and wednesday. if you want to volunteer, 0: a.m e jose city peoperesd iring need register first at the beautify sj booth

to intensify. let's take a look what's going on here graphically. 24-hour temperature change shows it's warmer than this hour yesterday. we feel the warm-up taking place. it is current 62 degrees in san francisco, and we have low to mid-70s at oakland, redwood city, san jose, gilroy. 58 at pacifica. it's still pretty warm in some spots at north bay, inland east bay. mid- to upper 70s in napa. mid-80s at fairfield and concord. 78 degrees at livermore. these are our forecast features. it's sort of a mini heat wave in the making right now. heat spikes over the next two days. it will be cooler at the coast and thursday but still hot inland on thursday. and much, much cooler and windier whether is coming our way friday and saturday. but before that, quite a bit of heat is building. as a result, the heat advisory will be in effect from wednesday at 10:00 p.m. until 9:00 a.m. for most of the bay area.

heat advisory in solano area from until 8:00 p.m. thursday. the heat will be more expense there and will last a longer period of time before the cooldown begins. our forecast animation shows us the developments during the overnight hours. we'll see a little bit of a marine layer there. there some fog will develop near the coast and push locally before the bay but not too far. it will burn away quickly tomorrow as the heat intensifies so we'll have a mostly sunny day. overnight, lows in the mid- to upper 50s. then tomorrow, look for high temperatures ranging from mid-70s in many coastal locations to upper 80s to about 90 around the bay shoreline. that's pretty warm for the bay shoreline. and inland, upper 90s to about 100. we'll see 99 at concord and antioch, 100 degrees likely at fairfield tomorrow, and many other upper 90s in other inland locations. then on wednesday, it gets even hotter. we'll see highs up to about 102, 104 in the hottest inland locations. and some low 90s around the bay

shoreline. there will be coastal cooling on thursday but as i mentioned earlier, it will remain hot inland on thursday, but no triple digits likely, mainly mid- to upper 90s. there will be cooler conditions everywhere, i'm happy to say on friday, as a vigorous sea breeze kicks in. that will carry us into the weekend. here is a look at the accuweather seven-day forecast, two more days of extreme heat, especially in our inland areas coming our way tuesday and wednesday. heat holds on inland on thursday, but cooling at the coast begins there. you can see much cooler patterns begin friday and continue through the weekend. speaking of the weekend, i should mention there is a slight chance but a chance nonetheless of showers on saturday. so here we go with another little minui heat wave. where it's hot, it will be hot, larry and ama. >> good to know, thanks, spencer. up next, broken glass, broken hearts. in oakland, a business owner is

actually finding hope amid the violence. and adding insult to injury for chinese students in the u.s. here's what we want everyone to do. count all the hugs you haven't given. all the hands you haven't held. all the dinners you didn't share with friends.

the trips you haven't taken. keep track of them. each one means one less person vulnerable, one less person exposed, and one step closer to a healthier community. so for now, keep your distance. but don't lose count. we'll have some catching up to do.

we continue to monitor the protests we're seeing over the death of george floyd. a live look in oakland, frank ogawa plaza. look how many people are out there protesting. the 12th street city center b.a.r.t. station is now closed at this point. sky7 moving away a little bit to give you another perspective. so many people out there protesting, feeling like they need to make their voices heard, larry. >> yes, ama, and this march began at the top of the newscast, or actually earlier in the day as well. but our thomas at oakland tech

high school, several thousand people, it seemed, it looked massive. they've spread out a little bit. as thomas told us, peaceful all the way through so far, we hope it stays that way. moving on, pretty significant developments this afternoon with the protests over the death of george floyd tat have swept across the country. >> president trump is putting states on notice tonight, saying they need to do something about the ongoing violence that we've seen erupt over the past several days or he will take action and do so with a heavy hand if necessary. >> i'm taking immediate presidential action to stop the violence and restore security and safety in america. i am mobilizng all available federal resources, civilian and military, to stop the rioting and looting, to end the destruction and arson, and to protect the rights of law-abiding americans including your second amendment rights.

therefore the following measures are going into effect immediately. first, we are ending the riots and lawlessness that has spread throughout our country. we will end it now. today i have strongly recommended to every governor to deploy the national guard in sufficient numbers that we dominate the streets. mayors and governors must establish an overwhelming law enforcement presence until the violence has been quelled. if a city or state refuses to take the actions that are necessary to defend the life and property of their residents, then i will deploy the united states military and quickly solve the problem for them. >> after his announcement, the president walked across the street to historic s night during a protest and

little piece of us. >> reporter: after seeing this image, her husband chris ran to the restaurant to protect it, finding looters inside taking electronics and alcohol. >> i jumped through the window, got everybody out. >> reporter: he was assaulted as the group ran out. >> my heart was already broken because of what's going on in this country. so there wasn't a lot left. honestly, feel numb. >> reporter: a sense of disbelief that the family is trying to process. first it was covid and having to close. and now this. they recently took down a sign from their window that read "black-owned" after receiving threats telling them she is not black enough. >> offti timtim timtime -- i don for people who want to destroy us just because they think i'm repter: to help t fily

[szasz] we take care of ourselves constantly; it's important. we walk three to five times a week, a couple miles at a time. - we've both been taking prevagen for a little more than 11 years now. after about 30 days of taking it, we noticed clarity that we didn't notice before. - it's still helping me. i still notice a difference. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. we want to go back out live to walnut creek. police and protesters are squaring off there. the curfew just went into effect at 6:00. let's get straight tbc nsra aho? >> reporter: yeah, larry, can you hear me? >> yeah. >> reporter: so -- all right, so

a few minutes after we did the live shot they declared the curfew. the protesters still here, maybe 50, 60 of them, moved out into this intersection beyond me, this is north broadway and civic drive. at this point the police that looked like s.w.a.t. police were pushing them out into the intersection, in a profile march. and within a few minutes, we heard the flashbangs and the tear gas. this is at civic drive and north broadway in downtown walnut creek. this had been a mostly peaceful protest throughout the day, but after 6:00, about 6:15, when the curfew went into effect, the police made a couple of announcements over the loudspeaker. they ordered this group to disperse. they made a few arrests, five or six. and then they started pushing the group back into the center

section and when they wouldn't go back any further, that's when they launched that tear gas and those flashbangs. we saw a couple of officers that gas, one that looked like t she hurt her leg. a couple of the protesters also appear to be hurt. and as you saw in our video, as soon as the flash-bangs and the tear gas went off, the protesters ran up the street and as we speak, i honestly don't know where they are. as you can see, the police are still here at the intersection of broadway and civic. >> all calm for the moment, correct? >> reporter: all calm for the moment in this location. i don't know what is happening in other locations. there were probably about a thousand people out here initially and then they broke off into different groups. a small group stayed here by the police station. they were the ones that were face-to-face with the police. but at one point one of the police officers actually knelt with them, it seemed to be that

things were going to stay peaceful. but when they declared the curfew, they started pushing the group back. those who did not comply were then arrested and in some cases the tear gas went off. at this point i don't know where else the groups are in town. as we go that way behind us, down to my left, turn that way, randy, for those familiar with walnut creek, that's broadway, and that's broadway plaza down there, that's where all the activity was last night. if you look to my left, that's civic drive. you see a heavy police presence there, you see ambulances. that's the leshur center. the first republican bank here, at one point i heard they were breaking windows, we never saw that. ack at north broadway, civic drive, and this is where this large contingent of police are as we

peek. and so in terms of what's -- go ahead. >> sorry to interrupt. beyond the curfew, was there anything that instigated this, as to why the police decided, okay, we're going to move this crowd, here comes the tear gas? >> reporter: not that we could clearly see, larry. there was -- i think if you saw on our video, there was a skirmish just ahead of when the tear gas was deployed and the flashbangs. it looked like somebody had breached the police line, maybe ran through the line, and that person was tackled and arrested, and then things got a little tense. then right after that, we were trying to keep our distance, honestly, so i can't see exactly what was going on right at the head of the confrontation. i did see the one person kind of dive through the police line and maybe that's what precipitated it. >> all right, laura, thank you. we see the police on the move. stay safe. >> reporter: all right, thanks, larry. >> ama? let's key what's coming up

tonight on abc 7 news at 11:00. actually we don't have time for that so we'll thank you for joining us tonight. i'm ama daetz. >> we're keeping an eye on all the protests and all the situations unfolding. there's a big group at the plaza in oakland, that appears to be peaceful at the moment. we're hoping it stays that way through the night. thanks for being with us. see you at 11:00.
