trying to resuscitate somebody. >> those life saving measures proved unsuccessful. this intersection was then closed off for much of the afternoon. >> it's scary. it was shocking. also, it was shocking because, you know, this area is so quiet after so many years. nothing has happened like this in this area. so people were really shocked. >> the man who fired the shot has been detained by deputies. i did reach out to the contra costa county sheriff's office to see if he has been officially arrested, if he faces any charges, or if this was a case of pure self-defense. i'm still waiting to hear back from the department in orinda. j.r stone abc seven news. >> a fremont man is under arrest accused of assaulting a flight attendants on a frontier airlines flight bound for sfo monday. according to court paperwork, the 30 year old man tried to choke. one flight attendant pushed another and kicked one about six times in the leg, leaving bruises. the justice department says this all

the fences are, who the people that were reselling these goods. and when you arrest and prosecute the resellers, you really dry up the market for organized retail thieves. >> the da says that in the last year, california businesses lost about $8.5 billion to retail theft. new at 11, a winery in the south bay finds itself locked in a dispute with santa clara county. the issue here is housing. the vineyard is allowed to manage and its family to live in on the property in an rv, but the county says that is actually breaking the law. abc seven news south bay reporter lauren martinez with legal action that's now being taken. >> michael ballard has owned savannah chanel vineyards in saratoga since 1996. >> one of the things that i just always felt from the beginning was that we were doing the right thing. >> in 2013, ballard let his vineyard manager, marcelino martinez, move his family into an rv on the 60 acre property. after an inspection in 2017,

ballard said santa clara county sent a letter that it was illegal to let someone live in a recreational vehicle on the winery property. >> they have no home, so we're going to we're going to make a family homeless so that you can enforce an ordinance that says you can't live in a recreational vehicle when there are hundreds, if not thousands of people living in recreational vehicles all over the county. and you aren't enforcing that. >> martinez has worked for ballard for more than 20 years. >> trabajando aqui este me ha gustado mucho trabajar aqui. >> martinez says he really likes working here. he started when he was young and has raised his family here. his children go to schools nearby. ballard said the county eventually started issuing them fines that have accumulated to more than $120,000 in. >> vamos a yo creo, vamos a dejar todo ya y yo me voy a ir para qué se acabe esto? >> martinez told mike they'll leave so this can be over. but ballard told him no and they will fight for them to stay. in

carolina. she had two events, starting in charlotte and then later in greensboro. both drew larger audiences, which could be a good sign for harris. the last time a democrat won north carolina was barack obama, by the way. back in 2008. she was one has one campaign stop scheduled for tomorrow night. that one will take place in pennsylvania. >> new developments with the collapse of baltimore's francis scott key bridge. investigators found a loose cable on the cargo ship that crashed into the bridge in march. why is that significant man still seeing that video again? it's hard to hard to watch. that cable could have caused the electrical issues that led to the ship losing power, then veering off course. the details come from new documents released by the national transportation safety board, but they do not include any conclusions. those will be revealed when the ntsb releases its final report. p-g-and-e's rates are going up again. it's the fourth time this year state regulators approved the hike, which amounts to about $6 a month. p-g-and-e's says the increase is needed to recoup

that includes the pyramid plus two adjacent buildings. there's the transamerica redwood park, a renovated grand lobby, conference spaces, and on the 27th floor, the new sky lounge. >> today is the day that we open this place to the public for the people to come to enjoy the art shows, the restaurants, the activities, or just come and have lunch at the redwood park. >> it's pretty exciting stuff. the ground floor of the pyramid will feature cafes, a bookstore, and a flower shop. >> building a better bay area can take many forms, and tonight it's turning a pop-up museum into a permanent fixture. a $2 million grant is giving black culture and history a new place to call home on the peninsula. the dominique hoskins black history museum and learning center began as a pop up museum. executive director carolyn hoskins tells me that the idea began 25 years ago as a school project for her grandson, dominique. >> he says to me, granny, i am doing another report on doctor

king because i know everything there is to know about him. so his question was, why aren't there any other famous black people that did anything? >> that got her inspired? over the years? it's been a family affair to create more than 200 categories of black history for people of all ages to enjoy. they traveled to different schools teaching children about the history. >> we wanted to focus on the fact that african americans do more than just entertain and sports our main focus is education because there is so much of our history, which is so rich, so great that people have no clue about it. so that's the important part. >> now, with the help of a grant, the pop up museum finally has a home on jefferson in redwood city, and the nonprofit

can't wait to host more visitor. and carolyn's goal is that when you leave, you've had such a good time that you want to come back. she knows when people hear museum, they think boring, but that is not the case. i mean, did you see her purple hair and her cool earrings? you know, it's not going to be boring, interesting, fascinating and important stuff. >> yeah, absolutely. all right, nice job. all right, let's talk about the weather forecast. >> yes. important as well. especially as we inch closer to the weekend. meteorologist sandhya patel is here. sandhya. >> yeah. that is very important i agree. and that was pretty cool though. let's take a look at some live pictures right now from our towercameras. visibility is fantastic. as you can see, visibility is good because we don't have a lot of fog around. it's very patchy near the coast. i do want to tell you about the drought monitor. it just came out today. unfortunately, 61% of the state is now in the d0 or abnormally dry category. it's the lowest category and the bay area is now

part of it. so we are in one of our drier months and it is definitely taking a toll, as we've had month after month of very little precip. but that is going to be changing possibly as we look here, pretty strong trough is coming in on sunday. it's going to drop those temperatures, kick up the winds and there's a possibility between sunday night and monday that we could see some showers here in the bay area. certainly possibility of sierra snowfall. as you can see on monday, that's not the only system. there's another one coming through here on wednesday. and that could bring us another round of this now september. typically we don't see a lot of rain. i'll show you that in just a moment. here is a deep low that is developing and that's what's going to be the driving factor for the first system. rainfall averages for september. oakland gets about a 10th of an inch. same thing for san francisco 1310 hundredths of an inch in santa rosa, less in san jose, livermore and gilroy. so it's not out of the question that we could see some moisture, but not

tomorrow. you can enjoy the sunshine. high pressure controlling our weather brought us the warm up today that is going to continue tomorrow. as we look at live doppler seven, all is clear. other than a few patches of fog, your temperatures right now, anywhere from the 50s to the 70s well inland, and a live view from sutro tower. another gorgeous view there. tomorrow sunny, mild to warm day. this weekend we're looking at cooler, gusty below average. it's going to feel like fall. and then monday comes around and there's that chance of showers and drizzle. so we start your morning off with just a few areas of fog. temperatures will begin first thing in the morning in the comfortable zone. 60s coast side, 80s inland by noontime, and by the afternoon we pop you up into the upper 80s to low 90s for the warmest spots. so yes, it's going to feel like summer morning temperatures in the 50s and 60s tomorrow afternoon. a mild to warm one. south bay 86, san jose, 88, in gilroy on the peninsula 77 san mateo, mid 60s. coast side a nice day in downtown san francisco, 71 degrees north bay, upper seconds

shanahan said. if it was a playoff game, christian mccaffrey probably would have played on monday night. look, we're a long way from the playoffs. does it make any sense to risk it sunday in minnesota? mccaffrey has achilles tendinitis and a calf injury. at this point it doesn't sound like he might go on injured reserve. that would keep him out for four weeks. niners don't want that. brock purdy says mccaffrey is just a headache for opposing defenses. >> that's a huge aspect. you know teams always have to account for him and have a whole plan for christian. he's the best in the league at it. and so, you know, when he's not out there i think it's sort of not
