those background checks and the ten-day waiting period, which nevada does not. this is weeks after stephen paddock shot and killed 58 people before killing himself. authorities are still trying to track down where paddock got all of his guns, according to nbc news, the gun tracing system in the u.s. realized on paper record, if you can believe that. we should mention this study was partially funded by the national institute of health and we are going to post some of the methodology on www.nbcbayarea.com. we know when there is a study, a lot of folks like to know the science behind it. too much for morning tv, but perfect for the web. kris sanchez, "today in the bay." now, to the wildfires in the north bay. happening today, a new red cross service center opens in napa. people impacted by pocket, tubbs and nuns fire can stop by and get help if they need it. families will be able to meet
