9:01 am
building a better bay area for a safe and secure future. this is abc 7 news. good morning, everyone, it is sunday, june 14. i'm liz kreutz. it's start with a quick look at the weather. first, meteorologist liz kreutz. he -- lisa argen. hey, lisa. >> hey, liz. the clearing will work its way to the south. looking from mt. tam, you can see the low cloud deck in the distance. low 60s on the coast. this is walnut creek, cloudy to start with mid-60s, mild in response to all that sun in the north bay. 61 in livermore. this morning, we're a few degrees milder. by noontime, 70s inland, about 70 around the bay. and everyone should be sunny
9:02 am
with partly cloudy skies at the coast, warming to the 80s midland, mid-70s around bait. we'll talk about a bigger warm-up towards the middle of the week. and we have the summer solstice on the way, we'll include that in my seven-day outlook, liz. an investigation is under way after someone shot at chp officers in hayward. we have brand-new video that came in overnight. take a look, it happened around 2:00 this morning on northbound 238 at llewellyn boulevard. the chp confirms the officers were shot at. none of them were hurt. we have calls in for more details on what happened, we'll keep you posted. new this morning, three california police unions are unveiling a national reform agenda and pledge to go root out racist officers. the los angeles police protective league and san jose and san francisco police officers' associations want to improve outcomes between police officers and the communities they serve. here are just some of their promises. a national database of former officers fired for gross misconduct. a national use of force standard
9:03 am
that emphasizes de-escalation. ongoing crisis intervention for police officers. and a website that's accessible to the public on use of force analysis. in a statement, the three unions said in part, we believe each of our departments has made tremendous strides in strengthening accountability, however we can do more and we believe this agenda should be adopted across our nation as an important step toward improving police and community outcomes. joining me now to talk about these changes are paul kelly, president of the san jose police officers association. good morning, paul, thanks for joining us. >> good morning, thank you. >> so we're told these changes are part of a pledge, as we mentioned, to root out racist police officers from police departments. how will these reforms make that happen? >> well, i think as we listen in washington, d.c. about police reform, and we hear politicians talk, attorneys, so-called
9:04 am
experts, i think what's important is, let's not forget the rank and file. who needs to be at the table is association leaders across the nation to talk about these serious, serious discussions and policies, especially if we're going to make it a national policy. >> so what changes if any will be made to how officers are trained? >> i think that training is key. if you talk to any officer, they always want more training. for example, just to qualify with a gun in some agencies you only have to shoot and qualify once a year. that's ridiculous. you know, when you talk about de-escalation tactics, when you talk about dealing with the mentally ill, some get ten hours of training. that's it. 40 hours of training in the academy. so training is a huge component of what we're talking about. >> as you know, there's a lot of talk right now about refunding the police or reimagining the
9:05 am
police and potentially taking some funds from police departments and investing them in community programs. do you think there's any value to the idea that that could help stop crime in the long term? >> i would say this. if -- uh, you need money in communities of color for all of those reasons. education, job, the youth. but defunding is going to hurt those communities. calls for serviceable rides, there will be less officers, less training. all the things that a community wants us to do to be better, to respond faster, to have better training, you start talking about defunding, you're actually taking that away so it doesn't help anybody, it doesn't help the cops and doesn't help the communities they serve. >> of the reforms announced today, which do you think will be most significant and lead to change? >> they're all tied together. when you start talking about a
9:06 am
national use of force policy, it don't quite get bigger than that. but with that, you really have to have the other items, early warning system, the training, databases, local on websites, for people to access all the use of force in their own city. you really have to have all those components. >> when you talk actually about that database, is there a commitment then to not hire those officers once they get put into that database? >> well, i think the commitment should be, if there is an officer that's fired for something horrific, gross misconduct, and we have to figure out what that is, right, then they shouldn't be a police officer anymore. i don't think there is a police officer in this country that wants someone on their force, watching their back, if they did something horrific and got fired for it. >> all right. we could talk about this for a long time, these are complicated
9:07 am
questions. we thank you for joining us. paul, thanks so much. there should be consequences and repercussions. >> in vallejvallejo, hundreds protesting an incident that prompted the state to investigate their policies. officers sean a man two weeks ago after reports of looting outside a walgreens. his family is demanding police release video of the incident. >> this is shocking to them. if they saw the video, they may have a dinner view about all of this, because the cameras themselves can be helpful to them. but it could be hurtful too. and so for me, i like to know. >> chief williams thought he saw the butt of a handgun, it turned
9:08 am
out to be a hammer tucked into the victim's sweatshirt. we have a link on our website to a gofundme account to help with the funeral costs. officers were standing by last night and the vallejo police officers' association posted, it should be concerning to people that small children are brought to protests with open air marijuana smoking, screaming anti-mob mentality and profound anger at the police. how to have a civil discussion is what we should be teaching children. they made that post last night. thousands turned out for a black lives matter yesterday in the east bay yesterday. >> no justice, no peace! no racist police! >> they joined forces to march to berkeley. the local 1021 organized the event to protest systemic
9:09 am
racism. protesters chanted the names of people killed recently by police including breonna taylor and george floyd. >> we recognize our obligation to the greater community and people on earth to make sure what goes on in this country stops yesterday. george floyd was the last one. >> union leaders presented a list of demands to police departments around the bay area, calling on them to be more civilized and redirect money to social services. during an event called the bay area blackout, they marched up to city hall from mission high school. all were encouraged to wear black. this is one of four organized events in san francisco in support of social justice. others are planned in oakland, danville, and alameda. let's get a check of the weather with meteorologist lisa argen. >> hey, liz. it's climbing through the 70s
