joins us now with the reaction and what some want to see happen now loose. i'm at the controversial tenderloin site initially opened as a centralized place where people could have access to resources but it also received criticism for giving out needles and allowing supervised drug consumption. on january 18th, mayor london breed announced a tenderloin linkage center how people struggling with mental illness and substance use disorder as fast forward to almost a year later and now the city closed it. this has been something we've been demanding from the mayor for months which is if you're going to close the tenderloin center we understand it was always meant to be temporary, but we've got hundreds of people every day who are relying on this center for services and for help according to san francisco's department of public health over. assist shelter food or such use treatment depending on who you

asked the center was considered helpful or not. i used to go there for meals you were able to get housing through them. absolutely. i am an artist. and they don't even help us. you know, i know on drugs or down they don't do anything man, you know, everybody get high they had a safe place for you to get high without getting robbed according to the ceo of health, right 360 over 300 overdoses were reversed at the center now, she's fearful many will overdose without anyone to help them in the area. i think saving 350 lives is a pretty significant metric for a health improvement because people who are dead never have an opportunity for recovery or be re-engaging with family. community of life sfdph director of behavioral health services and mental health asaf said the center was always meant to be a temporary space why the city

would close the center without having an alternative site for people to go the tenderloin center was it's always slated to be a temporary program. unfortunately or lease and had was up at the end of the year and we are aggressively seeking ways that we might be able to continue the service while putting into place service navigation during this period immediately following the closure. now there's no clear date as to when the city will have a hub or a similar site available. today's city volunteers. we're giving out pamphlets with places in the area where people can get resources for now loose peña abc 7 news. alright luz. thank you another major concern for san francisco. city leaders is the city's monumental homeless problem as abc 7 news reporter lianne melendez explained some local leaders are now wondering if a forest hospitalization program being used in new york city. could work here?

under mayor, eric adams, new york is enforcing a new policy which allows police and other first responders to force people into hospitals if they think they cannot take care of themselves. i know some people may look at what we're doing saying that we are trying to do something to take away the right of people. no, we're not the right is that people should be able to live in dignity state senator. scott wiener says about 1% of those who are unhoused in san francisco suffer from severe mental illnesses and/or drug addiction people who are truly are not able to make decisions for themselves and who are spiraling towards death and it is not progressive. it's not humane to just allow people to deteriorate and die on our streets when we can help them people like this woman seen here on a ring camera grabbing and tossing a food delivery bag then getting mad and pounding on a residential door.

san francisco already has a forced treatment program ordered by the courts, but it falls short of what new york is trying to do but to get that treatment the person had to be taken first to an emergency crisis unit at least eight times in a year in other words a repeat offender and then last march governor newsom launched a program. called care court intended to provide those individuals with the services they need but for some forcing people into treatment is a violation of their human rights, but set that aside for a moment advocates for the homeless will tell you san francisco doesn't have the space and means to treat everyone they don't have the capacity. they don't have the hospital capacity. the hospital costs are enormous and there's just again, there's just not the hospital capacity for that. there's not the service capacity is not this is not the staffing capacity. in reality many agree. it's doubtful that this time san francisco has the will to follow in new york's footsteps in san francisco

and it's been tough to be outside in the bay area the last several days storm after storm bringing much needed rain to the bay area and snow in the sierra and moores on the way. yeah, it has been so cold here. we're getting a bit of a break in san francisco right now as you can see in this live picture from our camera at the exploratorium along the embarkadero abc 7 news meteorologist andy patel joins us now to show us. just how much rain we've received in recent days sandia. yeah, alma and dan it has been a welcome sight. i'll show you those numbers in just a moment. let's look at live doppler 7 because our next batch of showers moving into the north bay as we speak getting you down to street level stony point road across highway 101. it is going to be slow and slippery. so be careful a light level one storm on our exclusive abc 7 news storm impact scale bringing thunderstorms to the sierra and the rainfall totals in the last 72 hours adding up to over two inches in los gatos and ben lomond just under a half an inch san francisco over an inch in oakland santa rosa brentwood

contact with 27 year old silvio yak aguilar. he worked as a counselor for new hope for youth that operated at a hubbard school the organization that specializes in youth outreach and intervention hung up on us when we called for comment and their website was deleted midway through the afternoon yak. aguilar was arrested after at least 25 incidents in this fan from january to october of this year sexual assaults occurred in a classroom at hubbard middle school as well as in the suspects vehicle. that's victim is no longer a student at the middle school. she's moved on to high school. he would pick her up her current high school in his vehicle where other acts occurred these acts are not the only sexual assault of miners on an alum rock union campus this year last week sjpd arrested music teacher israel santiago at adelante duel language academy what needs to be done differently to prevent these things from happening in the future. we are in our in analysis around processes of what is it that we

are doing internally to make sure that all of our staff is very clear about how we deal with this kinds of things the district tells us they have also cut ties with new hope for youth power and sjpd credit the mother of the female student who alerted police of the sexual assault and they encourage other parents to do the same. we want to make sure that that very strong family communication exists. so that children are able to come forward to parents that parents know what their children are up to what other adults in the lives of their children are up to police are asking for any other victims of these assaults to come forward and reach out to the department in san jose dustin dorsey abc 7 news. antioch police have made an arrest in an attack against a manager at habit burger grill last month the manager lost an eye in the attack police arrested 20 year old is isaac white carter this morning the 19 year old manager stood up against the suspect for bullying a teenager with special needs before the attack. it sends the message that our

detectives detective cox being one of them are going to work tirelessly until we solve these cases. this is something that's very serious. we never want people to come to our community and feel like they're in danger. white carter is facing felony assault charges. san francisco's board of supervisors will hold a final vote tomorrow on whether to allow police officers to deploy robots that could use deadly force in certain situations today supervisor gordon marr announced that he's changing his mind and will vote against this controversial plan stating. i do not think robots with lethal force will make a safer or prevent or solve crimes police have said they'd use robots in deadly for situations only in extremely rare cases as mass shooters suicide bombers or armed individuals endangering the public. moving now to gas prices. we're seeing some relief prices down significantly compared to a week ago the average price of a gallon of regular is 484 in san

francisco. 479 in san jose and 477 in oakland the high prices led to record profits for oil companies prompting governor newsom to call on lawmakers to approve a price gouging penalty and abc 7 news. anchor liz kroitz is in the newsroom with the tales on the effort to make that happen today in sacramento this hi dan. yeah, the governor is just released his proposal which he introduced with bay area state. senator nancy skinner that plan would create a price gouging penalty for oil companies and expand requirements for transparency from these companies. it's an effort. the governor says we'll force or hopefully force oil companies to lower the cost of gas. in a special legislative session at the state capitol governor gavin newsom unveiled his proposal to address california's high gas prices the plan would create a price gouging penalty on oil companies that the state deems to have excess profits. he would also expand the energy commissions authority to investigate oil companies pricing and the information that oil companies will be required to report to the state.

it's completely unfair to california's for these companies to essentially be price gouging to be charging california's whatever they pop they want and putting all that money in their pocket san francisco assembly member matt haney attended the special session. please be seated after gas prices hit more than $6 a gallon over the summer the governor initially proposed a windfall tax on oil companies chris. mckayley a veterans sacramento lobbyists said the new call for a penalty fee as opposed to attacks is likely a way to prevent needing a super majority vote in the legislature if something is truly a t then it is an exception and therefore only requires a majority of vote. the governor can call it whatever he wants but when you pose a fee upon an industry, that's a tax. kevin slagle is a spokesperson for the western states petroleum association, which represents the major oil companies operating in california. he says the penalty will only hurt consumers and blames the high gas prices on a number of

factors. it's a result of market forces of supplying demand of the global markets in volatility caused by things like the war and you in ukraine, but berkeley high school of business professor severin bornstein says those argument. s jane wyson 's twenteen gas prices in california have had an extra 30 or 40 cents more per gallon than other states even after adjustments for taxes and environmental fees what i call the mystery gasoline surcharge. so the question is, where's that money going? why did this appear in 2015? and is it a competition problem or is it some sort of regulatory cost? governor says it's price gouging and so as for the penalty he is proposing the maximum amount of profits in oil company would be allowed and the amount that the penalty would be have not been included in this initial proposal. they say that will be determined through the legislative process lawmakers are likely to begin discussions and voting on this plan next year in the newsroom

win over the miami dolphins. the injury ends garoppolo season and quite possibly his career with the niners and abc 7 sports anchor chris alvarez is here now on jimmy g and the team's quarterback situation. what a pun intended bad break. yeah terrible roller coaster ride with the two quarterbacks now. on a quarterback number three jimmy garoppolo season an abrupt end yesterday when he broke his foot against the dolphins surgery date not been set yet. he enters the offseason as i mentioned an unrestricted free. now rookie brock purdy takes over as a team starting quarterback tough news for jimmy, especially considering everything. he went through in the offseason. remember the shoulders surgery then returning to the team late in the summer to back up trailer and then lance went down suffered a season and an injury in week two. so garoppolo really was having a good season which makes this injury all the more disappointing. i mean when a guy gets hurt in the middle of the game, i'm sure he had a real rough night last night and it's very spin most of the night with his family. he's got his brothers and his parents here, and i'm sure it was rough. but you know jimmy came in today

and was out beat. it's not like he's positive about all that stuff, but he's a big deal. he's hurting but it was good to see him today just being positive and be able to give him a hug and stuff like that and all the guys see him because his journey starts coming back from this which won't be a problem. he'll come back. no problem. here's a look at jimmy g's injury history torres acl on his first full year with the niners back in 2018. missed 13 games fully healthy in 2019 niners made the super bowl pandemic year. that was tough as well and missing 10 games. he missed two games last year, of course the off-season shoulder surgery and now the latest the broken foot so the funniest moment if they're there was one from his press conference today. kyle shanahan was asking any retired quarterbacks that called they were referencing philip rivers, but he said he hadn't heard from joe montana or steve young. oh, yeah a little bit of le for the situation much more coming up in sports. you also have a warriors preview a lot going as a niners now turn to brock purdy. okay. we're be interesting to see how yes, thanks chris very much. well snow is coming down in

tahoe some two feet so far during our recent storms. that snow is perfect timing for the sierra at tahoe resort. it just reopened on saturday last year the kaldore wildfire caused major damage at the resort. the calendar of fire was one of largest events in. ski industry history and when we came back after the fire, there was this big question of is it possible will sierra live on just this staple that sierra tahoe has been in lake tahoe for 75 years, and that was really kind of the driving force to to get us back on our feet. sierra tahoe expects it a busy ski season there. they had four runs open on opening day. that's up to 16 today quite the change quite the change. we have a ski season. we have a rainy season. we love it sandia. yeah. absolutely. we love to see the snow in the mountains too, dan and i want to show you a live picture right

now from zephyr cove. it's coming down. this is really a welcome site, obviously because the snow is falling as you look at live doppler 7, there are chain controls on all roads, 80 50 88 and 4 if you're heading to the mountains probably a good idea to hold off winter weather advisory until 4 am. tomorrow additional 8 to 12 inches expected some of the resorts is i'mma mentioned up to two feet so far snow levels around 4,000 to 4500 feet. so of course difficult travel falling snow below the passes statewide. we're at a hundred and seventy five percent of average in terms of the sierra snowpack, but what's going to be important is that we keep up this pace through winter and then we see the end total so that's going to be very important obviously good for our water supply to see that snow and good for the resorts live doppler 7 does show some showers right across the north bay right now and you will notice it's really light across the region street level radar rohnert park stony point road, santa rosa bennett valley road,

to a seller and know who you're buying from or selling to to make sure the sale is legitimate and secure a simple tip to know is that the website should have https in the web address and it's not just buyers getting scammed sellers are also being targeted. the two most common that we see here in the san francisco bay area are non-delivery scams and non-payment scam. the non-delivery scam is just what it sounds like. somebody will be shopping online. they'll pay for something, but they won't receive a product victimizing the consumer the non-delivery. the non-payment scam is the exact opposite the non-payment scam victimizes the vendor somebody will attempt to purchase an item the vendor will ship the item, but the consumer who's actually a froster won't make payment. the fbi says if an offer seems too good to be true. it probably is it's really that simple and if you happen to be scammed, you should immediately call your bank or your credit card. sometimes you can dispute a charge and the fbi asks no

matter how small of a loss that you report it tonternet crime complaint center in the newsroom karina nova abc 7 news. okay. thanks very much karina. in the south bay the santa clara county district attorney's office is quitting twitter. the da says it's because of an increase in hateful rhetoric on the platform abc 7 news reporter. zach fuentes has more the decision to leave twitter has been weeks in the making according to santa clara county district attorney jeff rosen, especially since twitter's new ownership under elon musk. i noticed an explosion of hate speech and racism and anti-semitism on the twitter platform. that really started me thinking as to why my office and the taxpayers and the people that i represent in this wonderful diverse community why i'm using a platform that is making money by getting eyeballs to look at things that are racist and anti-semitic rose in placing the blame on us the straw that broke

the camel's back was the owner of twitter posting a well-known anti-semitic and racist meme peppy the frog grant kian a professor of communication at csu east bay points to numbers that show rise in anti-semitic and racist tweets isn't imagined the new york times has on the weekend that racist. warriors against african americans have more than tripled since musk took over. there are 60% more anti-semitic tweets. there are twice the number of hate tweets against gay people. he says that along with a rise in fake accounts the rhetoric puts agencies like the da's office at risk on a platform that had been useful to them. some of it has to do with the principles that these agencies and departments are sworn to uphold and they're just not confident that they can fulfill their mandate fulfill their mission. with the way that things are going right now on the platform so far musk is not issued any

response to rosen's move but last week he disputed claims that hate speeches risen since he took over twitter for now. rosen says, he's calling on other das to also leave twitter i have other ways to communicate with the public through radio through television through other social media and using the twitter platform is not necessary zach fuentes abc 7 news. happening now with special city council meeting is underway in san jose to determine how to fill two vacant seats. the two seats are for district 8 and 10, which were vacated by mayor-elect matt mahan and sylvia arenas who was elected to the santa clara board of supervisor knows what their community faces. here's a live look at the meeting according to city rules empty seats can be filled by a vote of current council members by special election or through an appointment until a special election takes place. in the east bay tomorrow the city of richmond will settle a tie in a city council race by drawing a name out of a bag. no kidding. this comes after a hand recount

business with gay couples. plaintiff christian. graphic artists lori smith who refuses to design wedding websites for gay couples on account of her religious beliefs as a christian. i believe that marriage is between one man and one woman the polarizing case out of colorado involves smith saying that working on an lgbtq themed project violates her principles and constitutional right to free speech. show me a page on that website. that is an endorsement of a marriage as opposed to the story of a couple justices questioned whether smith would be expressing her views or those of only the couple same-sex couples say they deserve equal treatment from businesses open to the public under colorado's anti-discrimination act if you're open to the public you need to accommodate everybody. that's a core of our civil rights law if justice's side with the state smith's supporters say it would allow

the government to force artists to express messages contrary to their beliefs if smith wins analysts say businesses will be able to discriminate refusing black people in interracial couples among others, but some conservative justices challenge that point do you think it's fair to equate opposition to same sex marriage with opposition to interracial marriage this case follows a similar one four years ago when the court ruled narrowly in favor of a colorado baker who refused to make a cake for a same-sex couple religious objections the supreme court's ruling could have a sweeping effect across many industries that offer public services. we're expecting a decision sometime next year and when abc news, washington stocks fell across the board today on on fears that continued tightening on interest rates by federal reserve will tip the economy into a recession the dow dropped more than 483 points or 1.4% nasdaq shed 221 points for nearly 2% and the s&p 500

our champion, cris pannullo, has been with us for a few weeks now, and what have we learned about our 20-game champ? well, we know he's a former poker player who obviously feels comfortable with big daily double wagers, despite, he says, not being a risktaker in everyday life. he has a 10-year-old pet rabbit named lentils, his girlfriend heather celebrates a birthday on february 21st, a number he often incorporates into his final jeopardy! wagers. he's the oldest of five siblings, loves the movie "spaceballs," hates olives, and his "jeopardy!" lunch of choice-- a salad with chickpeas and chicken and a banana on the side. [laughter] the most important thing to know about cris is that he's now a "jeopardy!" super-champion, who has won more money in regular season play than all but four players in "jeopardy!" history and more consecutive games than all but five. what we don't know is how this remarkable run will come to an end. i'm sure steph and ben are hoping this happens today. let's find out. good luck to all three of you.
