time her volunteers were attacked. professor nolan higdon says it's hard to quantify the level of political violence. but he says americans have become increasingly polarized over the past two decades. >> when we talk about polarization, it's not just who you prefer to be in office or what party you align with. it's also that you think you can't live with the other party, or that the other party threatens your way of life. >> professor higdon says mainstream media often reduces stories to team red versus team blue, and social media amplifies what violence may be happening. but he says the u.s. also has a history of racism. >> this is the united states of america. there's a long history of racism and violence around politics, so it's not out of character for the united states. unfortunately, to see things like this. >> in milpitas, bill quan is running for city council this week. one of his campaign 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

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 a 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. you can watch in-depth coverage of this case with the abc news documentary menendez brothers, monsters or victims on hulu. 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 a 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. exactly. >> 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 fullam 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. >> happening today, survivors and advocates will be making strides against breast. breast cancer in santa clara. the american cancer society will put on the annual 3 to 5 mile walk at california's great america. the walk raises money and funds research that helps develop life saving programs. gates opened earlier at eight, and the walk starts in a little bit 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. that is up from the previous report earlier this week of 49 people across ten states. no cases have been reported 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 is died in 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. and it might also help make up for some of the lost revenue from the delayed opening. happening today in san francisco, you can kick off halloween weekend with a spooktacular experience at thrive city. it's called thrill. when kids are going to be able to trick or treat. there's going to be a pumpkin patch, photo booth, a costume contest, and a screening of despicable me four. and this is free. so the fun starts at noon. the movie starts at 3 p.m, so there is just a whole lot going on this weekend. i know halloween is still a few days away, but a lot of people celebrating the weekend this weekend. so francis, what do we need to know? do we need to accessorize our costumes with a coat or anything? >> i think you'll be okay for the afternoon, depending on how late you stay out tonight and what type of costume you have. you might want to grab a light layer. i know a lot of folks are heading to the castro this weekend as well, so overall it's going to be a pleasant day, but you will start to notice a change in the weather pattern. and we'll show you that with live doppler seven, the

satellite radar image. so we have a system to our south that is going to bring us some high clouds starting later on this afternoon, and then a system to our north that is going to drop in from the gulf of alaska and bring us the chance of sprinkles tomorrow. but it's not going to amount to much. mostly cooler temperatures for now. most of us under clear conditions, we will start to see the changes in the cloud cover though in the next few hours. but it's a really pretty view from our exploratorium camera in san francisco. it's 54 degrees right now. oakland 49, hayward 52, san jose 51. and then still cool in redwood city at 46. half moon bay, 43 degrees, this time from the east bay. we're looking out towards the west and the bay, santa rosa and petaluma and napa. those have been the coolest spots all morning. still in the low 40s. fairfield 44, concord 49 degrees and livermore 46 degrees. and from emeryville. notice how glassy it looks on the bay. you can tell winds are very light. so for today we're going to have mild temperatures with a mix of fog at the coast and some clouds increasing throughout the day. and tonight

and then tomorrow we have the drizzle and spotty showers. but i'll show you the latest forecast animation. it's showing less and less and next week we finally get the crisp fall weather. get your sweaters out. you're going to need it. it's going to feel like fall. also, for today, we have the east bay walk to end alzheimer's in san ramon. if you want to join our leslie brinkley there. so 9:00 this morning, 53 degrees. the walk starts at 10:00. we'll start to get close to 60 degrees. and then by 11:00, it will be 68. it's going to be mild at lunchtime, 72 degrees winds will be very light. so it's going to be a pleasant time in san ramon. highs today will be a little bit cooler compared to yesterday. so in san francisco we are getting closer to average. now your high will be 69, oakland 73. but still some inland areas like san jose and livermore near 80 degrees today and really comfortable in the north bay. upper 70s. santa rosa and san rafael at 78

degrees. also just a heads up for today. there is an air quality advisory, particularly for the peninsula, with some controlled prescribed burns and pescadero. but for the most part, we are expecting good air quality today and tomorrow. overnight lows will drop into the 50s. upper 50s for most everybody. and then tomorrow we could see a few sprinkles, pop up, mainly in the north bay. but we're not talking very much. rain. maybe a hundred or so of an inch in some spots. here's the accuweather seven day forecast. so mild temperatures today with increasing clouds. the chance of drizzle tomorrow, and then cooler weather for the beginning of next week. also, we are tracking a slight chance of rain, possibly thursday morning for halloween, but looking dry for trick or treaters in the evening. >> zach sounds good. frances thank you. college football is here on abc seven and espn college gameday anchors reece davis and kirk herbstreit

>> yeah. and you're talking about a guy that had a special moment last week just coming back from the locker room, coming back to play, finding a way to win and a game against auburn. if he can't go, it's going to be tough to imagine them moving the ball against that alabama defense who's desperate right now to get some momentum going. >> and then primetime a game you'll be calling lsu and texas a&m lost opening weekend. haven't lost since undefeated in sec play. >> yeah, i think with the upsets last week in the sec. you know those undefeateds that went down. now you got these two undefeated in conference play that are trying to see who the top team is in the sec a lot at stake. >> there will be great atmosphere in college station for that showdown

just be happy. >> lesh and jerry garcia founded the grateful dead in 1964. >> he didn't play bass until he 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 was 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 lesh'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 of them there to remember phil lesh. many fans revisiting memories, including a couple from atlanta. those two deadheads actually met at a concert, and it just so happens that they were visiting san francisco yesterday 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. >> anddefined a generation, ands

still inspiring generations of fans to follow. local grateful dead fans also got to cherish opportunities to connect with lesh right here in the bay area. health care public relations executive jim weiss presented a check to lesh's unbroken chain foundation at terrapin crossroads. that's lesh's former music venue and restaurant in san rafael. the foundation supports several local charitie. more bay area sideshows overnight, this time in san jose. one happened just before 1 a.m. on murphy avenue in oakland road. you can see a crowd of people surrounding the intersection and fireworks going off in the center at points as cars do. donuts in the middle. witnesses say they saw multiple san jose police officers responding, as well as saying they spotted a helicopter overhead. it's not clear right now if any arrests were made. so let's talk about a new way. law enforcement is cracking down on

illegal sideshows around the bay area. police would use artificial intelligence to help identify the sound of tire screeches. abc seven news reporter suzanne phan has more on how it would work. reporter. >> we've seen the spinning cars and flying sparks from dangerous sideshows like this one caught on camera in vallejo. police are trying to crack down on the problem. >> we were able to identify numerous vehicles that were involved in these sideshows. >> flock safety cameras and license plate readers recently installed on the bay bridge are helping that crackdown. just this week, local law enforcement 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 abc seven news and abc seven 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. and now we're not talking about a fictional set from harry potter. this is right here in the bay area. we're going to tell you how much it's renting for. coming up. here's a live look from our emeryville camera. looking at san francisco from across the bay. once again this morning, a beautiful shot out there. looks like a great morning that we're kicking off. meteorologist frances dinglasan is going to

this morning at 845. all right. 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 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 are, 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. >> all right. we got you filled in on sports. now let's get an update on weather with frances. >> all right zach. well, you showed how pretty it looked across the golden gate bridge, but things are about to change. and you can see that here with live doppler seven. the satellite radar image. so we have a system to our south. this is going to start to bring some high clouds through the bay area. throughout the afternoon. and then this system to our north. this is going to drop down from the gulf of alaska, bring us cooler temperatures and some spotty drizzle and sprinkles tomorrow. but right now it's still pretty clear. so it's gorgeous outside and we'll show you live. shot from the exploratorium, you see the reflection of the sun off the bay right now and still pretty calm on the water in san francisco. it's 54 degrees. oakland 49, hayward 52, san jose 51, and redwood city and half moon bay 45 degrees right now. and this time from the east bay hills. we're looking out west, so temperatures still in the low 40s for santa rosa and napa at

43, petaluma already 46. fairfield 44, concord 49 and livermore 46 degrees. and this time from emeryville. still glassy on the water. so what you need to know for the forecast. today's headlines today it will be mild. the temperatures and we'll see a mix of clouds and some fog at the coast. and then tomorrow is when we are going to be tracking that drizzle and some spotty showers. but it's not looking like much right now. next week, crisp fall weather, sweater weather and temperatures will be on the cooler side. so as we show you the futurecast, we'll show you that right now we'll see clouds increasing throughout the day, and then this system that could bring us some spotty showers there. you see there with the pops of green doesn't look like much. in fact, these later models show less and less. so it amounts to maybe a hundredths of an inch in some locations. many locations will be dry. what you'll just notice tomorrow is increased cloud cover and the cooler temperatures we could get near a

10th of an inch in ukiah, so today's highs will be just a little bit cooler. getting closer to average. in san francisco, it's a high of 69. oakland 73, san jose 80. and we could see near 80. in some inland areas like concord, antioch, livermore and fairfield. and then in the north bay, napa will be perfect at 74 degrees. santa rosa and san rafael at 78 cooler and half moon bay, 64 degrees. with that fog, we'll see fog develop, especially overnight along the coast, and then will spread inland. but with the extra cloud cover, it means temperatures will be mild. if you're heading out tonight, this evening, temperatures will hover in the upper 50s and will stay there through tomorrow morning really quickly. i just want to show you what thursday morning looks like for halloween. we see another system drop, but it breaks up pretty quickly, so thursday night should be dry for trick or treaters, so we'll keep that in mind with the accuweather seven day forecast. so mild temperatures today with some fog and clouds increasing throughout

the day tomorrow. cooler temperatures with the chance of some sprinkles and some drizzle and then isolated chance continues on monday, but it will be bright on tuesday, although cooler with partly cloudy conditions wednesday and thursday, and then tracking those sprinkles to possible thursday morning for halloween, but then dry for trick or treating. >> zach francis thank you. speaking of trick or treating, spooky season is in full swing and this morning we're taking a look inside a historic haunt that is unique to the bay area. abc seven news reporter lauren martinez has a look at the winchester mystery house halloween special. >> what's your name? >> a chilling experience awaits anyone who visits the historic winchester mystery house in san jose. since 1923, the mansion has been a tourist destination. >> i have been hearing the legends about this house since i was a little kid. i remember reading about the blue room and the seances and the ghosts. so. and i've loved scary stuff since

i was a little kid. >> the fun scares come alive during halloween. this year's theme, unhinged hotel to see every uh- everyone here dressing up and just the fog that they put on and just the ghouls who hide in the corners and freak you out. so why do we love being scare? is it the adrenaline rush? the camaraderie? let's go see. >> i think that it just. it's just about the thrill and the excitement and like, feeling those rushed emotions just sometimes gives us more life. >> anastasia gunina, dressed as lydia deetz from beetlejuice, just finished her tour. i thought it was really, like, realistic, and it was creepy, but also funny. >> and it felt so real. it felt like i was in a horror movie. >> sprawling over 24,000ft■!s, e house is known to be a labyrinth. it includes 160 rooms, six kitchens and 17 chimneys. staircases lead to ceilings and doors open to

walls. richard jacobsen visits every year. does it spook you out a little? no. tickets range around 70 to $100, but everyone we heard from said they're worth it. over the past 101 years, the house has hosted 13 million guests in a terrifying but entertaining kind of way at the winchester mystery house. lauren martinez, abc seven news a reminder that you can watch all of our newscasts live and on demand through the abc seven bay area connected tv app. >> it's available for apple tv, google tv, amazon fire tv and roku, so download the app now and start
