sites during operation protective edge. among those targets, militant's homes and compounds in hamas-ruled gaza strip. there's also word the israeli military is mobilizing troops for a ground invasion as well. tensions in the region stem from the killings of three israeli teenagers followed by what appeared to be the revenge killing of a palestinian teen. new this morning, a robber broke into a san francisco home likely by tearing out this mail slot. right out of the front door and turning the lock from the inside. police say the homeowner woke up to noises and confronted that man. the man said he a gun and took off with some stuff from the house, but we have not yet been told exactly what was taken. the home is near the corner of hartford and 19th street in the castro district. the homeowner reportedly did not see a weapon, fortunately no one was hurt. today, san francisco supervisors will vote on a controversial law that could change the way the city handles the mentally ill. "today in the bay's" stephanie chuang is live in san francisco, and stephanie, this rule could

force people to get help. >> reporter: that's right, good morning to you, scott. right now essentially as soon as you turn 18 you're a legal adult, you can refuse mental health treatment and services, but depending on the voted today by supervisors here at city hall this afternoon. that could soon change here. it's called laura's law, and it's named after a mental health worker who was killed in 2001 by one of her patients. the program means those who are mentally ill may be ordered by a judge into outpatient treatment, opponents say any type of forced treatment, not only compromises the first and civil rights but will ultimately push people away from seeking long-term health. on the other side, supporters say this would serve people who don't realized or are unwilling to admit they have a problem and to refuse treatment. >> the one thing that it does is allow family members or community members to petition public health to bring this individual in front of a judge to ask the zwrouj say you need your treatment.

it doesn't forcibly inject anyone or force any medications. >> court order is a stick to compel people into things that may not have worked before. let's get invested in things that do. homeless outreach, housing first program. >> reporter: there are in m restrictions as to who would qualify. some includes the person has to be 18 or older, of course suffering from mental illness. another is clinical determination that the person would need supervision to provide in the community and hospitalized twice in the last 36 months and or has behaved violently to him or herself or to others in the last 48 months. the board of supervisors expected to pass today. they're forced to support this. mark farrell put this on the november ballot just in case leave it occupy to the voters. live in san francisco, stephanie chuang, "today in the bay." >> stephanie, it's interesting to watch the pend ewe lum swing back again, one of the reasons we have a homeless is in the 70s

and 80s, then releasing people who were held against their will. >> reporter: yeah, that's a good point, scott. both sides say there's been a shift in thinking and attitude. for instance, public defender didn't always support this, but he says his office every year serves 3500 people with severe mental illnesses and that mental illness has been criminalized here and so that things need to be changed. both sides agreeing that there needs to be help and focus on mental health, but they obviously disagree on how to go about it. >> stephanie chuang live in san francisco, thank you. you bha waking up to some -- may be waking up to blinking clocks in redwood city. the power is mostly back on after an overnight hour, fireworks knocked out power to 250 people. the fireworks were set off just before 10:30 last night when which pge reports damaged kwamt on a power pole. this is the video out of there a thief stealing political signs in a south bay

"today in the bay's" tracy potts joins us live on capitol hill, it looks like the president is the headed to texas tomorrow, but not all the way to the

border. >> reporter: not as of now. it's not on his schedule to make a visit to the border, and that's been a bone of contention with some of his critics who say the president's going down there for fundraisers for democratic fundraisers, but not for the border. this morning we know that the president has a meeting with state leaders while he's down there and invited governor rick perry of texas and asked governor panther troy back him on the emergency funds request, that money would help deal with these children who are spilling over from central america. it would hire more judges, more legal aid, and provide more detention facilities for these children. there's been a lot of talk about this and some action as well. we saw protests here at the white house yesterday from people who do not to want see president obama deport these kids, but the white house is saying they may not be eligible for humanitarian relief. the united nations and others have urged these children who apply as refugees to the united

a refugee designation would not carry any legal weight in the united states, but the u.n. says mexico and the u.s. do need to recognize this is a refugee situation and the people according to to the u.n. need international protection. it is 6:33 now, and time to check your forecast as we look live at san jose, we see blue skies and some of those clouds that are making things a little sticky, little muggy around town, good morning, christina. >> hey, good morning. you know what, this is a very good observation. a lot of times it's hard to differentiate between the midlevel and high clouds out there, but you know what, kris is right on point. it's the midlevel clouds that really show you the sign of humidity in our atmosphere, and today, we're going to see more of the clouds, especially down in the south bay as we are closest to that ridge of high pressure. i'm going to show you the weather maker in just a minute. i wanted to start by taking a live look at a foggy start over pacifica and the coastline this morning. we are still getting that

you a little preview of where we're headed as you know, thicks are changing in the weather department across the bay area. today, cooler temperatures staying muggy as we head throw tomorrow, we're going to increase the chance for showers, best chance all week arrives tomorrow and then we're going to cool you off into the weekend. im show you the changes coming up. right now let's check your drive, here's mike inouye. all right folks, pretty standard pattern for a tuesday. we'll show you the slower spots starting out where the metering lights are turned on. they were turned on just according to schedule, just before 6:00, you see the fast track lanes moving nicely. off slower drive west 580 off of 24 and that's the worst. berkeley curve still moving well just until this last stretch. look at oakland itself, 880 past the coliseum. light volume of traffic now. we have a game tonight. we'll talk about that coming up. the traffic to be expected after work, more congested there. looking at the maps, slower drive south from the castro valley, south 880, slows past 92 where folks move over to the

right to get over to that bridge. moving smoothly and slowly as you approach an earlier crash at stevenson, south 880 slows there and clear path into the south bay. 680 starts that build through sunol. typical for the tri-valley, and south bay northbound 101 slows off of kpool expressway now across the golden gate bridge. we'll give you a live look and show you there's fog on the north side of the bridge. it's not much of an issue, and not a surprise to travel across the bridge. know what to expect, as christina said, it'll be there for you. >> thank you very much. 6:36, giants have gone cold against a red hot a's in the battle of the bay. is it too late for the giants to turn things around? amy g. has a preview in your black and orange update up next. northbound bay area -- nbc bay area, honored with three national awards for excellence in breaking news coverage, fooech reporting, and public service in television journalism, all from the society of professional journalists. nbc bay area, we investigate.
