his weapon. but other investigative leads point to this area just off the martin luther king jr. center where we are at right now. law enforcement has been using a remote control sonar robot and have police boats and divers to perform the search of what we understand is a 09 by 57 foot grid. law enforce many doesn't believe finding the gun is a make or break in their case against one goh. >> it is not critical but it is important piece and we will -- most important thing is that we want to protect the public and having a firearm somewhere in our community is something we want to make sure we locate. we want to remove it from wherever it is. >> reporter: right now goh is at the jail in dublin. later today, he is expected to be brought here to oakland for his court appearance in 2:00 the to be rain order multiple charges including several -- seven murders.
