4:12 pm
he loaded as much as he could inside the bag and then had his bicycle waiting outside. just over one year ago, this video of a man filling a garbage bag with items from walgreens and fleeing on a bicycle highlighted san francisco's organized retail theft problem. he was eventually caught and sentenced to 16 months in prison. he was released after serving time. we discover not only was he back on the street but arrested for police say, shoplifting at this cvs pharmacy on fillmore and eight streets. today, the items he was trying to shoplift were still behind the cash register. >> he took those. >> he took all of those? >> how many times has he come? >> two or three times a day. some days i'm here until noon,
4:13 pm
i've seen him in here twice and i heard he comes in at night. >> this is the same guy? >> absolutely. >> what does he do? >> he goes straight to where the garbage bags are. he opens one up, grabs a couple of bags and fills them up. like this and then he usually helps himself to a beverage and leaves. >> police say they think he has stolen from that cvs store at least a dozen times before. >> we can document up to $15,000 worth of items being stolen. we know he is prolific. it is very possible there are other incidents and thousands of more dollars we are not able to document at this time. >> when he was charged more than one year ago, the former district attorney said whether the work of organized retail theft rings or individual
4:14 pm
suspects, the burglary impacting our local businesses will not be tolerated. today in a statement, the newly reported da said we have to send a strong message that repeat offenders will face consequences for their actions if they continue to choose a life of crime. just by looking at the empty shelves and locked up cases, it was apparent to us the store in question continues to be a target of shoplifters. he is in custody, facing multiple charges, among them burglary, resisting arrest and violating his parole. police are looking into whether he is responsible for other robberies in the area. they think there will be several additional charges in the next few days. larry: these drugstore workers see this it sounds like morning, noon and night. it must be so frustrating for
4:15 pm
them. do you know if the suspect engaged with them or said anything or did he just take the stuff and go? >> i asked them that and not a word. one employee said he would just glare at them and they would just look away. they were that intimidated by him. i'm glad you asked that question because it is very frustrating for these employees to work at a place where people steal all the time and there is nothing they can do. the clerk use on that video told me it is so sucking. that is spot on. larry: thank you. a warning today to keep your eyes open for skimmers. those are devices attached to credit card machines and they are used to steal your information as well as your money. kristen: in sunnyvale, one was discovered at a 7-eleven chevron store. >> this is a skimmer. >> that outrages from a man
4:16 pm
named joe who went to buy milk at a 7-eleven only to discover something a little off when he went to pay. the man told me over the phone he jostled that pin pad and heard an adhesive's ticking sound. this video used in the police investigation shows the man enraged after he removed the device entirely. >> it's very alarming. it is something our department had not come across directly. >> sunnyvale pd has investigated these before. devices were used on gas pumps. these are different. >> it was placed on top of the existing device at the store. >> according to a security expert, these are used i organized crime and have wi-fi capabilities, meaning if you encounter one and remove it, these crooks can follow your whereabouts. >> police have seen these devices and other parts of the country. at least three of these were found stuck on credit card

oakland draft house in terminal two. it's a fantastic restaurant with bayview's. also last week, we launched our parking reservation system online. passengers up to two hours prior to their arrival can reserve their parking. spencer: we were talking earlier about the micro climates in the bay area and i was talking how those strong gusty winds so famous for coming on shore through the gaps in the coastal mountain ranges tend to weaken as they cross the bay and reach oakland but today's breeze hasn't weakened at all. we are blowing in the breeze. let's go to mike nicco now for a look at the bigger weather picture. mike: 72 degrees with that 17 mile an hour breeze and that's not reaching all of our neighborhoods. emlen, it's a whole different story. before we get to that, i want to
4:20 pm
show you san jose. looks pretty clean. upper-level clouds in the district and those are from some thunderstorms i've been watching all day slowly migrate up toward us. warm to hot inland through at least thursday, possibly all the way through the weekend. just not dynamic swings and the temperatures coming up. every once in a while, some of the subtropical moisture could ride around the area bringing unrelenting heat to the southwest. here is one of those spokes of energy. it could produce several rounds of lightning and is weakening as it headed towards us. as we look at teacher radar, mainly a cloud maker as it continues to slide off toward the central valley. not really too worried about that, really just something
4:21 pm
interesting to watch this time of year. let's go from hottest to most comfortable. 97 in rent would. maybe not so much at night thanks to the cooler conditions but it is definitely hot. 83 in santa rosa. that's pretty nice. oakland at 70. san francisco about 65 degrees. very windy and the winds will hang around through 9:00. if you are drivingndonhe stein a southerly swell. our south facing beaches in the bullseye of this particular beach hazard statement. let's talk temperatures and take a look at the planner for this evening. 59 -- in the 70's inland. mid 60 around the bay.
4:22 pm
a comfortable night on the way in warmer temperatures around antioch. most of us in the 50's with thinner clouds as you move to the east and they will heal back . 72 in richmond and oakland. very comfortable. 66 in san francisco. here is my accuweather 7 day forecast. we will try to bring some of the heat down a level or two and bring you some comfort friday but saturday and sunday, 80's and 90's are right back and monday's and the upper 80's. if we see many major changes, it will be inland but it will be very small. larry: monster waves making for massive flooding in hawaii right now. >> are you looking for a raise question right there is a good chance you will get it next year.

for 35 years. i'm a mother of four-- always busy. i was starting to feel a little foggy. just didn't feel like things were as sharp as i knew they once were. i heard about prevagen and then i started taking it about two years now. started noticing things a little sharper, a little clearer. i feel like it's kept me on my game. i'm able to remember things. i'd say give it a try. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. kristen: today, truckers begin a three day strike in the port of oakland. they are upset of laws set to take effect after years of legal battles. it limits the use of independent
4:26 pm
truck drivers in favor of treating them as employees. laws aimed at ensuring workers receive fair wages but many companies and workers don't like it. some 300 nurses assistance, tax, and housekeepers as sequoia hospital in redwood city walk off the job this morning. they are demand and better benefits, or staff support and raises that would help keep up with inflation. dignity health is not commenting but says it will contain its operations and provide care for its operators. >> let's start with the news you want to hear. it is looking good for a pay raise next year. surveys of employers find they are budgeting an average of just more than 4% for raises. that doesn't mean you will get that amount. employees who are hard to replace can expect more.
4:27 pm
sometimes much more while others will get less. the raises are the best since 2008, but are they worth celebrating? remember inflation is running 18% over last. let's talk about part of your life not infect -- not affected by inflation, cost goes hotdog and soda deal. they say they have no plans to raise the $1.50 price. it has remained $1.50 since it was reduced in 1985. if it had kept up with inflation, it would cost four dollars. your costco membership is not expected to increase anytime soon. that's important. the company ceo saying it's not the right time to raise membership prices. the three big credit reporting bureaus have announced beginning this summer, which will happen any time now, they will treat medical debt different from other financial obligations. first, medical debt below $500
4:28 pm
won't even be reported. next, medical debt more than that won't be reported for 12 months. that gives patients more time to work with insurance companies, doctors and hospitals to get bills settled. finally, after you pay off the medical debt, it will be removed from your report. this is extremely important because that means the former medical debt won't affect your current financial statement. kristen: inflation is on the rising costs are skyrocketing. coming up, tips on helping you save up the grocery store. -- save at the grocery stores. larry:

4:31 pm
best move i've ever made. ask your dermatologist about cosentyx®. announcer: building a better bay area -- moving forward, finding solutions. this is abc 7 news. kristen: u. according to johns hopkins. average daily cases have more than tripled over the past three months and health officials believe those are underreported because of the high use of home tests. government data shows hospitalizations have surpassed 40,000 people for the first time in four months. more than 4400 people are hospitalized in california. larry: joining us now is dr. alok patel. thank you for the time. new infections among kids appear to be rising. is this all about the new omicron strain? >> that is what it is. we are dealing with a variant
4:32 pm
that is almost as contagious as measles. with eta from the american academy of pediatrics showing us that week of july 14, about 75,000 reported cases and kids, up from 68 house in the week before. this time, last year, that number was 25,000, so that is what we are dealing with. larry: we've got cases going up, are hospitalizations following? >> it's hard to parse this out because we do see an increase in the amount of positive tests. if kids going to the hospital. is it primarily because of covid? not necessarily. you will see positive tests from screening tests as well. kids who have underlying medical conditions, including anyone who has a chronic condition, a covid infection can worsen their condition. that could be asthma, diabetes, etc. covid is causing acute illness in kids which can spread to adults and keep doctors out of
4:33 pm
the hospital. all of it is a total mess right now. larry: from a parent perspective, what we have heard for months and months and waiting for kids under five to get the approval, it doesn't seem like a lot of parents are in a hurry to get their kids vaccinated. do the numbers bear that out? >> they do. we saw the first reporting of those numbers and a little less than 2% of these kids received one shot. that's a very low number. i don't think anyone is surprised by that. we head into the summer with a high level of hesitancy, parents saying they either wanted to watch and wait, they didn't trust the vaccine. let's unprecedented about this vaccine is it is approved for kids when hundreds of millions of people have already received it. that shows there's some serious not only distrust in public health right now but a lack of urgency.
4:34 pm
i'm hoping more parents have the conversations they need to have, especially as the school year starts back up. larry: it is a longer conversation for another time but you and i talk about this off the air a lot about people getting shots for a disease that started two and half years ago that has evolved into something very different. it is a tough sell for most parents. we could talk about that some other time. case rates have to be higher because so many are doing tests at home. the numbers have to be way higher. >> it's almost reminiscent of the beginning of the pandemic when we did not have a sense for how widespread the disease really was. there are some models suggesting actual numbers are seven to 10 times higher. you can safely call it a million because of how many tests are not being reported. but what is being reported is the community transmission on a national level. about 85% of counties are in
4:35 pm
that high level of transmission. if you live in one of those counties, they recommend indoor masking. that's not happening, that's not the message being pushed out right now. a lot of people have washed their hands and said we are done with this, so there is a discrepancy to what is happening and what is actually being projected. larry: and what we would like to happen. i'm glad you mentioned masking because art has ended their mask mandate. is that a mistake? >> it feels like it is a mistake. it feels premature. i don't want to get into the policy but it sounds like it expired. does that mean it's going to be revisited or something is going to change? we may follow los angeles county's lead but i think it's important we weigh out what really happens and what it entails. the public does want to do the best to protect themselves but i'm quoting the health commissioner of chicago, it's
4:36 pm
difficult to constantly cry wolf because what that is doing is leading to mistrust among the public. there's a balancing game right now. we have to wait and see what ba.5 does come a that it doesn't continue to cause an increase in hospitalizations. kristen: the doctor who led the nation through covid says he will likely step down in the next few years. >> obviously, you can't go on forever. i do want to do other things in my career even though i'm at a rather advanced age. i have the energy and passion to continue to want to pursue other aspects of my professional career. kristen: dr. fauci added he would probably step down by the end of president biden's current term. at 81, he is served more than five decades under seven presidents, advising every u.s. president since reagan. larry: coming up, $10,000 trash

cans and aces script and for heated seats. i'm laughing because it is so preposterous. things are getting pretty expensive. th i am robert strickler. i've been involved in communications in the media for 45 years. i've been taking prevagen on a regular basis for at least eight years. for me, the greatest benefit over the years has been that prevagen seems to help me recall things
4:38 pm
and also think more clearly. and i enthusiastically recommend prevagen. it has helped me an awful lot. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. this is what people with eczema said about how their skin feels... ...when it comes to our skin, what if it could feel differently? say hello to opzelura for the treatment of mild to moderate eczema. opzelura is a steroid-free cream proven to help clear skin and significantly reduce itch. do not start opzelura if you have any infection as it may lower your ability to fight them. tell your doctor if you are being treated for an infection;... ...have tb or have been in close contact with someone with tb; have had hepatitis b or c. serious lung infections, skin cancer, blood clots, and low blood cell counts have been reported with opzelura. in patients taking jak inhibitors, serious infections, increased risk of death, lymphoma, other cancers, immune system problems, and major cardiovascular events have occured. the most common side effect is pain and swelling in the nose or throat.

4:40 pm
that is nuts. this is video from oceanfront condos. waves going right over the top of the condos. that's got to be 30 or 40 feet high. highest serve causing damage to several buildings and forcing roads to close. imagine being on vacation and look at the pretty waves -- people know -- i grew up in the islands and i'm always going home. mike, what is happening now is just bunkers. we are seeing summary more episodes of these types of things and whether you want to closely tie it to extreme weather or climate change, that's the eatable. but it's unusual and more and more frequent. mike: have you ever seen a wave
4:41 pm
topple a two story condo or apartment or whatever? it was a rogue wave for sure but it was created by hurricane darby. there was a high surf -- i don't member if it was a warning or advisory. that must have crashed on a seawall which give it -- which gave it more of an uplift. it also wiped out a wedding party. dan: glad i did not go there for my vacation. larry: you could have gone viral. [laughter] kristen: because that is his number one goal. we have subscriptions to pay for the tv we watch and now in u.k., bmw is asking customers to pay for heated seats. for $1200 -- not that much -- $12 a month. bmw will activate the heating coils built into its seats. you can pay for them when you buy the car but that company says the subscription allows
4:42 pm
people to try it without having to pay upfront. so basically the mechanism is built in and is in every car. you pay for these and then they put it in? dan: that is the tesla model where you can upgrade -- it seems like nickel and dining to me. $12 a month? what's next? a seatbelt surcharge? larry: are they really rolling this out in the middle of a heat wave in the u.k. when they could see the all-time high of 102? mike: they should be trying cooling seats. larry: you are talking very expensive cars and they want even more. speaking of pricey, san francisco is trying out some pricey prototypes for the future of the city's trash cans. the cans hitting the street this
4:43 pm
week have names like salt-and-pepper, beer savor -- bear sabr. i'm having a hard time even taking it seriously. they cost between 10000 and $20,000 or can. what are we doing? city officials say they can prevent trash overflow and prevent people from digging through the garbage. each will be in two different locations during the 60 day trial. kristen: because we did a deep dive into this on the mid-day, the off the shelf models are cheaper. they also decided to throw into the pilot because people are complaining that three we did see costed so much to prototype. dan: i've done some reporting on this in the past and bill or not, it seems ridiculous and it does seem like they are paying a fortune, but trash cans something as simple as a trash can much more complicated when
4:44 pm
you talk about something in public use for civic purposes. they have to be secured in place, they can't be tampered with by people who want to mess with them or dig through them. they have to be safe. you can't put some device inside them. they are more complicated and there's more engineering than you might think for a trashcan. larry: i will do it for $15,000 a can. kristen: they are expensive but they also spend a half million dollars to study it. french fries -- larry: that makes me feel better. kristen: are french fries just not big enough to get all that catch up? hines has the answer. they are introduce you spoon fries. you can only get them in a contest for u.k. residents only. but if successful, they could be coming to the u.s.. yes or no? mike: i don't eat fries very
4:45 pm
often but when i do, i tend to like waffle flies and -- waffle fries and they tend to hold plenty. i would maybe take it to a party or if i had a party -- i don't know. larry: it's a funny gimmick. i don't put catch up on fries. kristen: garlic fries plane. larry: you are very high-end. this french fry must be pure. i think it's a good give it. i think it's a good give it. that -- a i think it's a good give it. that -- a that was quick. and rewarding. i earn 3% cash back at drugstores with chase freedom unlimited. that means i earn on my bug spray and my sunscreen. you ready to go fishing? i got the bait. i also earn 5% on travel purchased through chase on this rental car. that lake is calling my name! don't you get seasick? we'll find out! come on. and i earn 3% on dining including takeout. so much for catching our dinner. some people are hunters. some are gatherers. i'm a diner. pow!
