posters was defaced, tagged no asians. >> and when i first saw it, i was like, i was in disbelief, you know, because of all places in the bay area, milpitas is known as, you know, one of the most diverse communities here. >> as for councilmember fife, she says she'll be back out in the same neighborhood on saturday to show they won't back down, to show that we have the right to get out the vote for one of the most important campaign seasons in oakland and national history. in oakland, anser hassan abc seven news. >> and be sure to stick with abc7 news for election coverage. we have a voter information guide with information about the propositions and the candidates. so go to abc7 news.com and look under the election section. developing news. the israeli military launched strikes on iran overnight. the move is an anticipated response to a barrage of missiles launched at israel earlier this month. abc news reporter johny fernandez has more, including the concern about oil prices before the u.s. election.

>> reporter israel defense forces conducted precise strikes on military targets in iran friday night. the strikes are in response to an iranian attack earlier this month, when iran fired a barrage of missiles at israel after the killing of a hezbollah's leader, hassan nasrallah, and others. >> like every other sovereign country in the world, the state of israel has the right and the duty to respond. our defensive and offensive capabilities are fully mobilized. we will do whatever necessary to defend the state of israel and the people of israel. >> israel's retaliatory targets do not include energy infrastructures or nuclear facilities. an israeli official told abc news israel has listened to that. >> that demand from the u.s, the u.s. clearly was pressing israel not to go after iran's nuclear and oil sites. i mean, iran's oil infrastructure is highly valuable to the regime. there were fears about what a strike

on on oil sites could do to global oil prices. of course, into just before the us election. >> the strikes targeting missile storage production facilities and air defense systems. the united states says it did not participate in israel's military operations against iran. defense officials confirm israel did give the white house a warning in advance of the strikes. johny fernandez, abc news, new york. >> now closer to home, here in the south bay, a criminal charge against the candidate for san jose city council was dismissed. tam truong was accused of grand theft and fraud involving a real estate scheme. he was also facing allegations of wage theft. truong put out a statement declaring his innocence, but he is still involved in a civil case and is on leave from his job as a police sergeant. meanwhile, an effort is underway to remove a current san jose city council member from office. neighbors and business leaders are launching a recall campaign against omar torres. he is

supposed to be, but it is very dangerous right now. >> the spartans have to play 19 matches to participate in the ncaa tournament. they're at 14 and there are eight games left in the regular season. all right. we got a lot more news and sports and weather coming up. so let's check in with francis. >> yeah, but first i have to show you this beautiful live shot from mount tam, looking south towards the bay bridge. we have clear skies right now. as you can see, all across the bay and san francisco in the background. but there will be increasing clouds today. and that will bring us the showers and spotty drizzle tomorrow. i'll let you know how much rain you can expect this weekend. >> thank you francis. also ahead, why bay area doctors are calling on one particular group of women to help in the fight against breast cancer. and later in our next half hour, honoring the great phil lesh, how deadheads are remembering the

in the same manner as george floyd. the fundamental difference is that we now have a different political climate. but justice delayed is justice denied. >> officer mckinley returns to court next month for a preliminary hearing. it could be up to a month and a half before a judge reviews the case of the menendez brothers, who were convicted of killing their parents more than 30 years ago. prosecutors are asking the court to resentence them. they recommend the life sentence without the possibility of parole be removed, but the process could be long because after review, it could go to a parole board, which could take six months or longer. and then there's a possibility that the governor could later weigh in on the decision. >> all of these family members will uniformly ask one thing, which is bring them home. bring them home. >> the los angeles district attorney says he recommended the resentencing after weighing new evidence showing the brothers were abused. and you can watch in-depth coverage of this case

with the abc news documentary menendez brothers, monsters or victims on hulu and disney is the parent company of hulu and abc seven. october is breast cancer awareness month, and the american cancer society is urging black women to use their voice to help fight breast cancer. abc seven news anchor ama daetz has more on the push to get black women to join a new study, for good reason. >> african-american women are doing worse in any ethnic group. they have about 40% higher risk of dying from breast cancer compared to white women overall. regardless of what stage they present with, they still have the lowest survival rate amongst all ethnic groups. >> and then this voices study could help narrow down why they have worse outcomes. and then we can see it. >> exactly. doctor. >> patience o'daly is a breast surgical oncologist with kaiser san rafael. she says multiple factors likely play into this disparity. access to care. barriers to getting treatment as well as social, environmental

and lifestyle factors. kaiser is working to improve outcomes for black women by providing education, support and screening. the american cancer society is also working to achieve better health equity for this group, which is why it's looking for 100,000 black women without cancer for its new voices study. >> we know that even though black women are likely to get screened for breast cancer, the quality of the screening and the care that they get the timeliness to the care is not at a point where it needs to be. >> doctor fola may is an associate professor of medicine at ucla and a voices ambassador. >> unfortunately, there's been a bias in medical research and that we are less likely to study black and brown populations and science, which is why this study is so important. >> it will follow participants for years to come, and what researchers discover can help improve the quality of care for future generations. i know being part of a study can sound a little scary, but doctor o'daly says it's mostly answering

questions. >> i think it's just filling out a bunch of surveys every so often, you know, sort of identifying if you do get diagnosed with a breast cancer with sort of finding out what's happening afterwards and then tracking things in the future as well, and what your experience has been through that journey. >> ama daetz abc seven news and happening today. >> survivors and advocates will be making strides against breast cancer in santa clara. the american cancer society will put on the annual 3 to 5 mile walk at california's great america. that walk raises money and funds research that helps develop life saving programs. gates open at eight, followed by the walk at 830. parking is free for all riders who get there before 10 a.m. the number of cases of e.coli tied to mcdonald's quarter pounders has risen to 75 people across 13 states. now that's up from the previous report earlier this week of 49 people across ten states. no cases have been reported here in california, but it's believed these infections are caused by

the fresh onions used on the burgers sourced from salinas based taylor farms. one person has died and 22 are hospitalized. at least one affected customer has filed a lawsuit against mcdonald's. humpback whales are putting crab season on hold. the commercial dungeness crab fishery south of the sonoma mendocino county line was scheduled to open on november 15th, but the state department of fish and wildlife has pushed back the opening. it's because of the large number of humpback whales in recent entanglements in the area. >> we're already seeing a high number of whales entangled in gear from may to october. we've seen four entangled in dungeness crab gear confirmed entangled, and we've seen an additional ten humpback whales entangled in unknown fishing gear that hasn't been able to be identified. and there's also currently several whales entangled in monterey bay. so i think we'll be seeing some numbers rolling in that are really uncomfortable as we continue to delay the season due to high whale risk. >> the group oceana has been

working with both fishers and the state on testing ropeless traps. the traps limit the risk of whales becoming entangled, and the group hopes upgrading those traps will allow fishers to extend the crab fishing season this spring. it might also help make up for some of the lost revenue from the delayed opening. dia de los muertos is almost here and today on abc7, localish is celebrating the traditions that make the holiday so special. from building home altars to street festivals filled with music and dance, there are so many wonderful ways to honor loved ones. >> i like to honor my roots, my culture, my heritage, through my art. >> for dia de los muertos, you have to have your dia de los muertos bread. >> yes you do. plus, there's so much more about how the holiday is growing more popular. from movies to shopping malls, even big league ballparks and the disneyland resort. don't miss local celebrates dia de los muertos tonight at 8:30 p.m. right here on abc seven. happening today in san

bring us a chance of some showers, light rain and some spotty drizzle for tomorrow. so here's what it looks like right now. we have some clear skies over the bay area, but just a heads up, there is an air quality advisory alert for today. and that's because there are some prescribed fires in pescadero under control. but right now we are forecasting good air quality for the weekend. there could be some impact, though, in the peninsul, on the peninsula and in parts of the south bay, due to the prescribed fires. here's a live look from emeryville. there's actually an injury accident on the bay bridge right now, and temperatures are on the cool side. so san francisco is the milder one, though at 54 oakland, 50 degrees, hayward 52, san jose 54. redwood city 47. half moon bay 43 degrees. and then check out this gorgeous shot from mount tam. look at how clear it is across the bay. notice the winds are light, so it looks very glassy on the bay right now. temperatures are

cooler in the north bay, santa rosa and petaluma in the low 40s and fairfield 48. concord 51, livermore also 48 degrees. so here's what you need to know. today will be mild with a mix of fog and clouds. then tomorrow we get the drizzle and spotty showers. next week temperatures are going to be cooler with the sea breeze. it's going to really feel like fall. so for today for the east bay walked and alzheimer's in san ramon, it's going to be gorgeous. partly cloudy conditions. temperatures start off in the mid 50s 9:00. when the walk starts it will already be in the low 60s. and then by this afternoon, temperatures will warm up into the low 70s for lunchtime, so it will be mild by lunchtime. and then also here's a look at what we can expect. so we have this system. this will start to drop in overnight and bring us a chance of showers tomorrow. but it looks spotty at best. so we're talking maybe a few hundredths of an inch in some locations tomorrow. most of us

joined the grateful dead, and inside six months he was playing it as well as anybody could play it. >> it was his love of jazz musician john coltrane and improvization that created the grateful dead sound. >> grateful dead music is about a conversation and one of the most interesting conversations ever was always the one between garcia and lesh. he created this completely unique approach to bass. >> lesh did not write many songs, but the few he did. pen became iconic. after jerry garcia died, lesh retired from music but found he could not stay away. he established his own band. later, he founded terrapin crossroads in san rafael. >> it was a place where musicians came and went, hung out, exchanged ideas. it was a laboratory that he could experiment in. >> but it's his legacy with the grateful dead that will live forever. >> deadheads. what they loved was grateful music. it was not a

cult of personality. 30 years after jerry died, there's more deadheads than ever. >> lesh had survived cancer and a liver transplant. a post on lush's instagram says he passed peacefully, surrounded by his family and full of love. phil lesh was 84 years old. in san francisco karina nova, abc, seven news and deadheads descended on the haight-ashbury house that the band called home in the 60s. >> all those deadheads there to remember phil lesh. many fans revisited memories, including a couple from atlanta. the two deadheads met at a concert, and it just so happens that they were visiting san francisco friday when we heard the news that phil had died, we decided we wanted to come down here and just pay our respects. >> it's like watching a bunch of your friends get older and everybody gets older, and so people die. but the music goes on, and that music defined a generation and is still inspiring generations of fans to follow.

agencies seized 16 cars. the chp says they were involved in two different sideshows the weekend after labor day. >> sideshows in vallejo is a constant problem that requires a lot of resources. >> vallejo police say license plate readers are a help. >> we do have flock safety cameras in vallejo, and they do work really well. right now, we're only using flock for license plate readers and single and multiple gunshot detection, but the technology could soon be put to greater use. >> this week, flock safety launched a first of its kind sideshow detection tool to help communities combat illegal sideshows. it uses ai and machine learning technology to identify certain sounds, specifically the screeching of tires, and send law enforcement agencies real time alerts that a sideshow is happening. the ceo of flock safety calls it, quote, a groundbreaking tool that enables agencies to act faster and prevent these dangerous events before they escalate. police and the chp say even

without it, the audio the tech is making a difference. >> i know technology is improving and it's and it's the wave of the future. and it's causing officers to detect and improve our strategies better. so i don't see how it could hurt as we continue to see innovative technologies coming out that allow law enforcement to, you know, identify issues that we're having and maybe how to better investigate them just in general, that that advent of new technology that benefits us ultimately is a benefit to the people that we serve as well. >> suzanne phan abc7 news abc7 news reached out to flock and asked which cities are using the new tech and which cities are thinking about using it. >> a spokesperson would not say, but we have found out that san francisco, oakland and san jose are not testing or using the technology as of now. well, still ahead on abc seven mornings. a space under a staircase is available for rent.

rent. not in the wizarding world, but in san jose. >> i wish i could find some other name for him because i don't actually care about harry potter that much. i'm much more of a lord of the rings guy. but you know, it's just a place to sleep. >> jason doesn't want to be identified. he's not allowed to sublet his one bedroom, one bathroom unit. he said rent increased in august to nearly $1,800. >> i paid the first increased rent month and realized with a little bit of math that in about 11 months i would be down to a tent or my car because my savings would be gone. >> now he's resorting to finding a roommate. jason posted this ad on craigslist $250. harry potter cubby for very cheap plus light chores. >> it's about what i need to be able to afford. the rent, you know, and i'm not blackstone. i don't want to charge people for profit. i just want to be able to live in not a tent. >> the craigslist ad has been posted for a month, and on november 1st, his first potential roommate will visit.

jason says you won't just have access to the harry potter cupboard, but there's no restrictions on cooking, internet, kitchen, bathroom or gaming space. >> one of the places i looked at on craigslist for $600 was someone's partitioned off living room with sheets, and they had restrictions on bathroom usage. like you can only go between 6 and 7 a.m. or eight and 9 p.m. >> jason sad also mentions he liked to rent it out to a nice nerdy gamer. >> it's just sort of a culturally shared experience that, you know, goes between race and creed and religion. it could be rock collecting or digging up dinosaur bones. as long as there's some sort of nerd or geek, i'm okay. >> and if our video doesn't quite capture the magic of what could fit here, the area is roughly three by ten feet in san jose. lauren martinez, abc seven news. >> no shortage of innovation here in the bay area. allht, let's check in with francis. >> all right. we're going to start off with another pretty

and clouds are on the way. they will be increasing throughout the day, but right now in the bay area we have clear skies and that means temperatures are a little bit on the cool side. although we are enjoying a beautiful view from mount tam looking south with some very calm winds out there in san francisco, it's currently 54 degrees oakland, 50, hayward 52, san jose 54. redwood city 47. half moon bay only 41 degrees,

this time from the east bay hills. we're looking out west, so in the north bay we're seeing some cooler numbers, some low to mid 40s. santa rosa 42, petaluma and napa at 43, fairfield 48, concord 51. and livermore also at 48, this time for mount sutro, or rather, sutro tower. we're going to tell you what the headlines are. so today will be mild. it's going to be another gorgeous day, but we will see a mix of fog and clouds. the clouds will increase this afternoon and this evening. and then tomorrow. that brings us a chance of drizzle and some spotty showers, but you'll notice it won't amount to much. it will feel cooler though. and then next week, with the onshore flow returning, temperatures will feel cooler. it will be crisp fall weather, sweater weather returns. so here's the satellite radar image. this system is what we're going to track and it will drop overnight and bring us the chance of some light rain tomorrow. in fact, what you'll notice is it's going to be spotty, maybe just some drizzle. so tomorrow morning, still pretty dry. just notice

more clouds and then you see those pops of green mainly through the north bay. so it's not going to amount to much for most of us. most of us will be dry. we'll just notice those cooler temperatures. so ukiah maybe almost a 10th of an inch. and you'll notice just a few spots could get a hundredths of an inch. so it's still going to be a nice day tomorrow. so today what you can expect. temperatures will be just a little bit cooler, but still very comfortable. inland areas in the upper 70s like concord 79 san francisco though 69. oakland 73. san jose 80 degrees and also in the north bay. expect a high of 78 in san rafael and also in santa rosa. so you'll notice those high clouds passing through. then they increase tonight. tomorrow morning will wake up to conditions that are fairly mild. we'll see temperatures in the upper 50s to even some low 60s out there. so san francisco 58, oakland 59, san jose 57, concord 60 degrees. so we're going to jump ahead to

thursday. i want to show you one of the forecast animation models. it is showing a chance of light rain for halloween. but mostly in the morning. then hopefully dry for the evening and all the trick or treaters. here's the accuweather seven day forecast. so mild temperatures today with some fog and clouds increasing and then drizzle and a pop up shower tomorrow. cooler on monday. bright and sunny tuesday, but temperatures cooler for halloween and we'll be tracking that chance. a slight chance of rain for halloween. >> zach francis thank you. the la dodgers and new york yankees took the field at dodger stadium in game one of the world series, and it was an exciting game, decided in the 10th inning by california's own freddie freeman. here's abc seven sports director larry beil. >> good morning everybody. an absolutely epic game, one of the world series that will have giants fans grimacing because you got the yankees with aaron judge, whom the giants tried to sign against the dreaded dodgers in this game, decided by the

first walk off grand slam in history and all the stars come out in la for this one at dodger stadium. john legend and the harbaughs their top six one nothing l.a. john carlos stanton wow. mammoth two run moonshots. left way out two one yankees. bottom eight mookie betts tying run at third. that's a game tying sac fly, and we are knotted at two apiece. top nine gleyber torres comes within a foot of giving the bronx bombers the lead, but a fan reaches out over the fence to make the catch. he wants a souvenir. that's interference. so it's a double, not a home run. and the yankees ended up not scoring in the inning. top ten yankees men at the corners anthony volpe. infield single. jazz chisholm scores three two yankees. the dodgers, though, will not go down easily. two on one out for shohei ohtani. swings at the first pitch from nestor cortez. alex verdugo. this is incredible diving catch. he flips into the stands that is downright jeter esque. now they choose to walk mookie betts to face freddie freeman. bad choice because that

is a bomb. freeman takes the first pitch and just crushes it. first ever walk off grand slam in the world series, dodgers take the series opener six, three and ten. remember kirk gibson's game one walk off against the a's took place in almost the same spot 36 years and ten days ago. let's get to some hoops. warriors and jazz. dubs wanted to trade for lauri markkanen, but he stayed in utah. de'anthony melton. trace jackson davis on the pick and roll for the dunk. davis six of six on the night. warriors playing great defense. steph curry to buddy hield to jonathan kuminga for the jam. steve kerr wants to run more. and there it is off the turnover into the half. buddy hield they call him buddy buckets for a reason. he led the dubs in scoring for the second straight game 27 off the bench in 20 minutes. third quarter. curry with the defense leading to a turnover. and andrew wiggins three. warriors in two games. you can't ask for much more. beat the jazz by 41 127 to 86. the 49 ers host the cowboys and sunday night football. the niners come in at three and four. they really need

a win after that brutal loss to kc. both teams with injury issues micah parsons is out for dallas. deebo samuel trying to come back from pneumonia. george kittle with a sprained foot. both are listed as questionable, but kittle sounds like he is ready to go. >> no matter what the stats are. no matter what the you know, the standings or whatever it is. it's going to be a really good football game and we just have to go out there and execute and play our game and try our best to beat the cowboys. >> really good team that we know each other really well. both of our backs against the wall. so pretty sure they they have just as much urgency as we have. >> so it's going to be a fun game. that's a wrap on morning sports. have a great weekend everybody. i'm larry beil and a reminder that you can watch all of our newscasts live and on demand through the abc seven bay area connected tv app. >> that's available for apple tv, google tv, amazon fire tv and roku. download the app now and start streaming. we will be right back
