but her constipation with belly pain would often return. maybe there was another way? or something left to learn? when her doctor connected the belly pain, discomfort, and bloating to ibs-c, it made sense to jill. so did learning that she could treat it with a once-daily pill. and that's why she said yess to adding linzess. linzess is not a laxative. it helps you have more frequent and complete bowel movements. and is proven to help relieve overall abdominal symptoms-belly pain, discomfort and bloating. do not give linzess to children less than two. it may harm them. do not take linzess if you have a bowel blockage. get immediate help if you develop unusual or severe stomach pain. especially with bloody or black stools. the most common side effect is diarrhea, sometimes severe. if it's severe, stop taking linzess and call your doctor right away. other side effects include gas, stomach area pain, and swelling. could your story also be about ibs-c? talk to your doctor and say yess to linzess. learn how abbvie and ironwood could help you save on linzess.

fairfield resident samantha siders is still shaken for several hours on tuesday. her neighborhood was thrown into chaos after police surrounded the house of one of her neighbors. they just came and swarms. there was like trucks sheriffs. they were in full suits and it was very scary. they were there for this man. seventy six year old james gary gary was arrested for homicide and booked into solano county jail. this is a family household and have a lot of children and they frequently play in the neighborhood and wave at this man, but it's just gary's arrests that bother ciders but also the extent of what he's alleged to have done. thanks to dna evidence compiled over a series of decades as well as modern technology several bay area and state law enforcement agencies have been able to link gary to unsolved murderers and other crimes going back more than 40 years forensic analysis dna analysis. all those things were, you know, very very premature at that time. they were in their infancy. the first murder, is that of a union city woman in her home in

80 the second is a woman whose body was found in some bushes besides interstate 780 in vallejo in 1996. finally gary is accused of a sex crime in solano county in 2021. who was this man in 1980 and who has he been since because with 16 years in between two different homicides are there other victims. so while police continue to piece together, what else might have happened they say a key focus has to be on the loved ones of the victims. in that for some all these years later, they might finally be able to get some peace. i believe there's probably a sense of relief and a sense of justice for those folks in solano county tim johns abc 7 news. breaking news a fire burning near the town of aromas in san benito county is now also burning in santa clara county the anzar fire has burned 120 acres and his 25% contained there are reports that one home and one garage have been

destroyed. but no injuries have been reported about 50 people remain evacuated. so let's get right to abc 7 news meteorologist sandia patel for the latest conditions sandia. yeah. i'm a conditions are favorable actually for the cruise fighting that fire. let me show you the conditions at this hour of 52 degrees relative humidity a hundred percent winds are really light you obviously want to see that humidity level pretty high winds will remain light over the next few hours and then picking up tomorrow afternoon getting breezy, but it is going to be a southwest really wind which transport the higher humidity across the region last visible satellite pictures before the sun went down showing you quite a bit of smoke blowing from the aromas area near the fire all the way out towards san juan bautista and hollister tonight. this is the latest from purple air air quality in the hollister area is in the moderate category because of the smoke from that anzar fire. i'll be back to tell you about another fire and the air quality advisory plus a look at your weekend weather coming up ama.

all right. thank you. sandia oakland police are searching for a man accused of trying to kidnap a two year old at a bus. stop take a look at surveillance photos from the ac transit platform at high street and international boulevard on tuesday family members told police the man threatened them and tried to take the toddler and assaulted the child's mother a good samaritan intervened and the man ran away if you recognize him call oakland police. more monkeypox cases in santa clara county so far it's been contracted primarily by gay men, but the county deputy. health officer says it may not be too long before we see heterosexual individuals coming down this illness as well. i do expect that there will be some cases at some point that in in folks who are not in lgbtq community. we just don't know when that will happen. the santa clara county now has 31 confirmed monkeypox cases that number has more than doubled since last week now.

we have everything you need to know about monkey pox including vaccines and treatment options. just go to our website when you have time abc 7 news.com president biden has tested positive for covid-19, but i've been double vaccinated double boosted symptoms are mild. and and i really appreciate your increase in your concerns, but i'm doing well. abc 7 news special correspondent, dr. alok patel gives us some perspective two years ago when ben president trump tested positive and what the actual protocol was of airlifting him to a hospital and getting these treatments that weren't approved but nowaday with vaccines in the present inviting being double boosted. he has mild symptoms that we can hopefully cross our fingers that it stays that way. president trump was once again the focus of tonight's january 6th committee hearing which you watched live here on abc 7 just a few hours ago. overhearing focused on the 187 minutes between the breach of the capitol and when former president trump told rioters to

leave and go home a former white house aide testified that she resigned after the president told people to leave, but also said we love love you your very special. i knew that i would be asked to defend that and to me his refusal to act and call off the mob that day and his refusal to condemn the violence was indefensible. you do not the committee also showed outtakes from president trump's recorded message the next day. he didn't want to read the script that said the election is over the committee announced that more hearings will be held now in september. meantime a new study by uc davis shows the political divide in america maybe even greater than we thought abc 7 news reporter jr. stone talked with a local lawmaker about it. while the division in our country was on full display at the january 6th capitol attack a new uc davis report fines that more than 50% of american surveyed believe that in the next several years. there will be a civil war in the

united states. it's definitely a crazy time in our country right now, and i don't think we've seen such division quite some time. there was even some division at this town hall meeting one held by congressman eric swalwell in livermore when a woman in the crowd. refused to give up the microphone of said over california covid and vaccination policies. i just think we as americans need to get our hands out of the sand and people start back being human to one another. that's all we asked well about that divide and if the capital hearings could bring more division, it does hurt to see that americans are so pessimistic about where we are right now that they would believe that we could come to that bring the country together. we need to understand just how close we came to losing our democracy and overwhelmingly what we see right now, i believe is a country that you know wants to have their vote counted that does not endorse violence as a means of resolving disputes and politics dr. garon went to mute

is the lead author of the uc davis report and spoke to us after evaluating some of the findings. it's very clear that there are people who feel that they're being left behind as our society changes frankly at both ends of the political spectrum the biggest cheers during this town hall came when swalwell talked about safety and gun control every person that i spoke with said safety was their number one concern going forward in livermore jr. stone abc 7 news. coming up next the i-team takes a closer. look at the mystery gas surcharge. you're paying 70 cents per gallon only found in california plus building a better bay area by building fences. that's all ahead. but first, here's a look at what's coming up tonight on jimmy kimmel live right after abc 7 news at 11. thanks, dan. and alma. i'm rupaul. down and stay and you set a

with macklemore plus special guest tones and unhairinger and i got so many rings another tomorrow only on good morning america's summer concert series sponsored by massage envy. happening now three lanes of eastbound 80 are closed to repair damage done yesterday when a truck hit the gilman street over crossing in berkeley and did this the closure will last until 5 am and there will be another closure on saturday night. no matter how much the price of gasoline changes renowned uc berkeley economists warns that you're paying a mystery gas

surcharge on top of state taxes and environmental fees. the i-team stand noise has been investigating how and why californians always pay more at the pump than any other state. yes, we pay more gas tax than any other state 26 cents a gallon more than the national average and we pay more to refine our cleaner burning fuel about 10 cents a gallon those numbers for this week from uc berkeley's energy institute at haas and the lead economist there says hidden in the 219 per gallon for refining marketing and retailing is a mystery gas surcharge currently 70 cents a gallon that can't be explained. are you saying that they're charging more because they can absolutely i'm sure they're charging more because they can the question is are there actual costs behind it that are justifying it and that's something we have to look into severin bornstein says oil companies and retailers start at the mystery gas surcharge after the explosion and fire at the

exxon mobile refinery in torrance seven years ago. our prices went way up, which they always do after a refinery fire, but they never came down again. they should be given the higher taxes and fees. he provided this graph showing how oil companies have charged california drivers and extra $40 billion dollars compared to the rest of the country since the torrance explosion. there are people really hurting due to those higher gas prices and he testified last month at a state assembly hearing into possible price gouging. i mean, honestly, i find it. kind of unbelievable that we've gone this many years and we still haven't been able to figure the mystery out the attorney general's office testified that investigating the mystery gas surcharge will be difficult for them that kind of investigation would take several years before you would actually get an answer if you got an answer no answers for us on the short term the select committees planting a series of meetings over the next three or four months. so why i asked a representative

for the oil companies and refineries that do business in the west about the mystery guest surcharge marketers can charge whatever they want for gasoline. it's based on consumers consumers will pick the gas station. they want to go to they want the best fuel for their automobile. and as a single mom i can tell you i want to pick a place. that's well lit that's clean that i feel safe and i will pay more than any other surrounding gas station to make sure that me and my son are pulling up to a corner place that feels safe we need to willing to shop around because not only do you get a better price you put more pressure on those expensive stations, which are usually the big brands to lower their prices. the professor tells me despite some that their special additives improve your car's performance virtually. all gas is the same so shop it independence stations that charge less and that should drive down the price of all gasoline more quickly for the it dan noyes abc 7 news.

and if you have a story for the abc's 7 news i-team go to abc 7 news.com slash item or call one team. alright, we've been following so much extreme heat across this country and in europe and other places, but it's been fairly comfortable here in the bay area. yeah really has meteorologist. sandy patel is here with the latest sandia. yeah. we haven't had any extremes this week. that's for sure. so dan and ama 38 degrees spread this afternoon between coast and inland our summer pattern and here's what's as we look from our sutra tower camera, this is a time-lapse. is this so cool or what? yeah, our cooling marine influence coming in tonight over san francisco. and so as a result we are going to see some changes. here's a look at a live picture from our east bay hills camera nice seabreeze blowing as we look, back towards the city heat relief is expected inland. here's a sampling of those temperatures concord coming down eight degrees from 95 today to 87 tomorrow livermore 7 degrees

cooler fairfield about two and gilroy going from 95 to 88. you'll notice here's what's going to set about the changes. it's this trough here stronger onshore winds tomorrow will allow those numbers to come down the marine layers really shallow, and it's mainly confined to the coast tonight as you will see see on live doppler 7 temperatures. sour really nice relief from the inland heat earlier today 50s and 60s for most of you unless you're out towards antioch where it's still 70 degrees. hey, this is really good here in the bay area compared to what other people are dealing with dangerous scorching heat phoenix 114 degrees tomorrow, kansas city 103 in dallas 94 in new york. i mean you're looking at that heat continuing to just really bake the central us and parts of the south as you will notice. digits on saturday records are expected these temperatures. well above average sunday still some hot weather across many parts of the country here in the bay area. we don't have to worry about it,

but certainly out west we do have some excessive heat warnings heat advisories and most of the central and southern parts of the states are dealing with that heat a live view from our exploratorium camera, and you can see the fog rolling in morning fog coaster bay with patchy drizzle breezy and cooler in the afternoon, and we're expecting minor ups and downs. through next week. so the air quality advisory for eastern contra costa county continues tonight due to the smoke from the march fire, but really overall things have been improving tonight. we have good air quality right around the contra costa county area. so i think they're making progress in dousing the flames there the fire that's has been burning since may fog first thing in the morning between five and eight. we are looking at some spotty drizzle tomorrow and then really a little bit of fog will linger in the afternoon your morning. is we'll start out anywhere from 48 in santa rosa to 65 and antioch. watch out for the fog tomorrow afternoon. it's warm inland, but not as hot as today in the low 90s for

antioch and fairfield 60 in half moon bay. c4 in san francisco everybody else in between the accuweather 7-day forecast heat eases inland tomorrow typical spread as we go into the weekend and if you like it a little warmer, we'll bump up those temperatures on sunday brief cooling and then back up again with increasing humidity towards the middle of next week amanda. okay, sandia. thank you building a better bay area may involve fencing off a bart plaza to crack down on illegal vendors in san francisco's mission district abc 7 news reporter. both spoke with city and community leaders who call it a last resort to clean up the area and protect legitimate vendors. mission district commuters woke to a new reality thursday morning bart plaza fenced off taking some by surprise when i saw the fencing. i just assumed maybe it was being cleared out for an event, but that's not the case. it's being clear to try and clean up the area which has become overrun by illegal vendors amid the pandemic it's

gone from in vendor is selling their artists and goods to a huge market of stolen goods supervisor hillary ronin introducing legislation in march requiring vendors to have a permit allowing the city to clamp down on those selling illegally, but the process has been delayed. the law isn't going to be fully enforced until august after the whole online permanent system is set up that we felt like we just need a change of atmosphere at the 24th street bar and this fencing is being described as a last resort a way of keeping the vendors and the public safe by no means is it meant to be a permanent solution susanna rojas is the executive director of the calavente quattro latino cultural district the nonprofits working with the city to try and make it a safer place. how do you think this fencing off is going to help and and impact these these businesses? i think as you can see here, it's it just that people that have been bending on the street.

they're already organized. we they're permitted. so it just makes it easier to be able to see who our vendors who are already registered and permitted vendors like sophia already have their seller permit the next step will be a vendor permit from the city always is too much people know no bueno. and the difficult for for everybody they sell here. i love this fence. i love it because it's more safe. milagros lopez has been selling her jewelry here for eight years and says the past two she hasn't felt safe a lot of illegal vendors comes inside. i'm sorry to to mention but homeless people living in there they do in drugs the hope is this fence gives the community a chance to clean up. well the city rolls out the vendor permit program. it gives us an opportunity to clean and revitalize the plaza and then it also gives us an opportunity to outreach and
