disabilities were referred to police at proportionately higher rates compared to other children. officers at schools can give a child what's called a juvenile citation. equivalent to an arrest and goes on a child's criminal record. now, legal advocates tell us this is often done for routine misbehavior, like talking back to a teacher or pushing another student. tonight, we dig deeper into the long-term pact on children. we'll also investigate one bay area school district that had a practice of calling police on its students at a rate higher than nearly every school district in the entire country. that's tonight at 11:00. back to you. >> thank you very much. if you have a tip for our investigative unit, just give us a call at 1-888-996-tips or send us an e-mail to theunit@nbcbayarea.com. congress has until tomorrow night to avoid a government shutdown and it looks like that could happen without any cuts to planned parenthood. yesterday republican leaders
