we're ob early tonight because of the stanley cup final. which begins at 5:00 p.m. >> july 5 might look a lot like july 4. we're expecting a lot of fire works tonight. there was no shortage of shows nearly all of them were illegal. today as neighborhoods clean up and brace for more tonight. there's a call to allow the state to do more with the thousands pounds of illegal fire works they confiscated. firefighters are bracing for another night of problems. >> this is what is looked like in gilroy. this was not a city sponsored fire works display. these are all illegal neighborhood demonstrations. it was about the same in san jose. we caught a steady stream of illegal shows all night long. >> it was a beautiful night. i look around and fire works everywhere. >> celebrations seemed to follow

a pattern. first the boom. then the problems. for example last night it was a call to this mans home. for a report of a possible fire. then the evidence. this morning no sign of a fire. but the street was littered with fire works debris. >> it was crazy. i'm laying down and look out and see explosions of light. >> these fire works were lit, dangerously close to the dry east hills. the app shows how busy and already under staffed fire department was last night. officially they responded to 20 fire works calls last night. seizing 550 pounds of fire works this year. activists say across the state, police choose not to confiscate some illegal fire works because it comes with a hefty price tag. >> if law enforcement doesn't enforce it much. they get the fee.

>> she's leading the effort to convince the state to pass senate bill 277. a bill would allow licensed wholesalers to buy state confiscated fire works and resell them to other states where it's legal. and increase funding to be more proactive in finding illegal fire works. >> they are viable. packaged and in boxes. that instead of being destroyed can be resold. >> for now firefighters tell me they are focussed on another night of fire works and the flood of calls that come with them. >> it's going to be active tonight. relatively speaking we did okay. no major fires or injuries that were reported. there were fires in the east bay on a small level. one at a warehouse in oakland. this was near the coliseum. on 77th avenue. just after midnight.

around the roof of warehouse. crews got it under control quickly. people were lighting fire works in the area for hours and saw debris coming down. here's what the firefighter said. >> 50 firefighters were on scene. they're still putting water on the fire. we have gone defensive. >> here's another fire at a commercial building near 42nd and telegraph. no official word if either fire was started by fire works. it seems likely. in total oakland fire department receiving 250 calls for service. 60 were fire related. >> a woman and a teenage girl fighting for their lives after a drive by shooting. this happened during an illegal fire works show. one man died. it started after midnight. near 101. police say dozens of people were at the show when a silver honda

accord pulled up. wbs witnesses say they heard gang challenges from the people inside the car who started shooting. they drove away but crashed and got away on foot. no arrests made. >> search for survivors of the condo collapse was back on today. after the demolition of the part of the building still standing. >> the remaining structure came down in seconds. due to safety concerns for crews on the ground. as tropical storm is on the way. the implosion gives search rs ak says to parts of the debris they haven't been able to explored yet. the death toll is raised to 27. the locals are not calling it a recovery mission. >> there should be no talk about anything but rescue. and that is the 100% focus of

everybody on that fight. >> the demolition raises the prospect crews can increase the pace of the work now. and the number of searchers. >> the masks are likely coming off soon in england. british prime minister making that announcement a fewer restrictions. people will not be required by law to wear masks inside public spaces. this will take effect july 19. the changes come amidrising case counts made worse by the delta variant. 128,000 covid deaths. >> you can't count on lottery incentives to encourage people to get vaccinated. before and after the lottery system. they used cdc data to compare the rates of other states without the program.

the conclusion, it didn't lead to more vaccination. study authors say they hope the findings lead it a shift in investing in programs that target vaccine hesitancy. california has a vaccination lottery. no official research. the governor said it is working. at encouraging people to get vaccinated. >> bart bringing back the full train service ahead of schedule. bart shut down the service in march. the plan was get back to normal end of this summer. today it will move up the time line and bring back the late train service august 2. trains will run 5:00 a.m. to midnight on weekdays. it's able to make the move because it stepped up the hiring and training process. face masks will be required on trains. >> the holiday weekend isn't over yet. it's clear, travelers are

hitting the roads. and the sky. we have live pictures of dublin, richmond and san mateo bridge. and san jose. clear sailing there. why people are so enthusiastic about traveling and less concerned. >> i'd say that's the best way to put it. many travelers say that while covid is still on their minds, it's no longer enough of a fear to stay home during the holiday weekend. san jose international airport officials tell me the airport set a post pandemic record for travelers. 15,000 boarded planes on friday. even more on saturday. that corresponds with national figures. 2.2 million people took off friday. the biggest single day total since the pandemic began. some people said they were willing to take any risk to finally get out.

others were proceeding with caution. >> we were fully vaccinated. and desperate to come and see my brother. we decided to bring our masks kp take the chance. >> i love traveling. exploring. this weekend, i'm cautious. even though i'm vaccinated. because of the delta variant. >> we also found out that sky high gas prices including a new state gas tax issued the day before the holiday weekend. didn't seem to stop a lot of road travel. nationwide about 43 million cars were expected on the road this weekend. so at this point, it appears the desire to see family and friends out weighed concerns over cost and covid. >> okay. thank you. up next the stolen construction

tools. how detectives uncovered a an operation in the south bay. >> shoppers and retail stores are reacting to an increase in crime in san francisco. >> i'm chief meteorologist thankfully we have fog in the coastline. keeping temperatures comfortable. i'll talk about big heat coming our way. i'll have details.

we are moving you forward as covid restrictions continue to ease across the bay area. here's a live look in san francisco. beautiful night. starting tomorrow, mask rules will change at city hall. face coverings will no longer be required for fully vaccinated visitors. the change puts the city in line with state guidance. however city hall officials say masks are mandatory for unvaccinated people and can be worn by anyone who want extra

piece of mind. the delta variant is the most common covid strain in california. this comes as california is again seeing a slight rise in over all cases. the question is, is it time to have more restrictions or continue to ease back? >> reporter: it's been less than a month since california fully reopened. and mandates are lifted. with the delta variant creeping in and numbers back up, some wonder are we headed towards another health and masking order? >> i personally am not vaccinated yet. >> she says she may soon change her mind. now that the extremely contagious variant is the most dominant strain in california. >> that's one of the things that will probably make me get it. >> the california department of public health says the delta variant now accounts for more than 35% of the new covid cases

in the state. up significantly from 5% of california cases in may. >> what is surprising to me is not only that it's the most common. but the rate of increase is really dizzying. and it's expected to be over 90% in a few months. if not weeks. >> there's also a possibility that the delta variant might cause more severe symptoms. >> the fact it's produces more virus. and people produce virus full a longer period of time. not only makes it more transmissible. but potentially more deadly. >> a nail salon hasn't taken chances since reopening in february. even after the state lifted the mask mandate. last month. they decided masks would be mandatory here. >> we cannot check everybody vaccination card. we don't know. that's why we do it. >> some are taking precautions. others worry a second mask mandate could crush them. >> at this point, i have nothing

left to do. >> he's taken too much of a hit during the pandemic. and his customers made it clear they would thot be okay with putting masks back on. >> we have been through a year and a half. struggling. there's not much i can do. >> what can people do to stop the spread? >> it's really a good time to get vaccinated. if you haven't. right now things are still pretty quiet in the bay area. we don't know how long it will last. >> first it was walgreens closing in san francisco over theft concerns. then target cut hours. now safe way is making a big change to try ask stop theft at a store in the city. we explain why you won't be seeing a lot of shopping carts in front of the safe way.

>> we found jim loading up his car outside a market street safe way. he carried his groceries from the store. because carts aren't allowed in the parking lot. >> good to have a cart. to begin with. >> a store employee told us dozens of shopping carts have been stolen recently. published reports say 160 in the past few weeks. now you can only use them inside. and large attached poles prevent anyone from trying to take them through the door. >> yeah. this store is hit hard. it's been several weeks. >> retail crime has long been a problem in san francisco. lately retailers say it's getting worse. >> stuff i have seen happening, like the fights. the drug use. it's not good. >> target started closing six of

local stores as 6:00 instead of 10:00 because of theft issues. saying theft can become uncontrollable. >> it's very insecure. to be working. especially -- >> my experience with walgreens. i shop there a lot. it's really scary. for your own safety. you don't know what the people will do to you. >> late last week, target released a statement. saying it plans to work with law enforcement to improve store safety. we reached out today to the sfpd. nobody was available to speak. because of the holiday. >> thank you. a six month long investigation in san jose netted a cash of expensive bicycles and stolen construction equipment. investigators arrested a man who is the head of an under ground

bicycle fencing operation. out of his home. police found high end bike, crates of construction tools. and more than $20,000 in cash. the merchandise is worth 100,000. police say burglaries and theft of bicycles and construction equipment increase during the pandemic. >> now to our climate in crisis. water restrictions may get tighter. because of the potential for record water shortage the board could add conservation measures. the rules are expected to be approved tomorrow night. restrictions include using sprinklers one day a week. drip irrigation limited two days a week. customers will be discouraged from planting anything new. >> do you want to know what drought restrictions are like in your neighborhood? go to or web site.

on. we're getting the cold ocean sea breeze from the fog alt the coast. it's super-thick. and drizzle at the immediate coastline. 59 right now. then through 7:00 the 50s state put. and that fog. let's look at tomorrow morning. you can see it will be thick and widespread. through the north bay. at the immediate coastline. the green here is drizzle. that we could see in the beaches through tomorrow. and san francisco. some of the clouds early on down towards san jose. we'll get that sunshine rolling through tomorrow afternoon. away from the beaches. and set us up with a good day. might need a jacket to begin up around 6:00. get out the door back to work. it hurts after vacation.
