mexican independence day celebrating the country's independent from spain. a lot to celebrate today. thank you for starring it with us. cynthia joins us with a look another our microclimate forecast. lots of clouds. >> it's one of those mornings you feel like just curling up in bed. i don't blame you. all of the cloud cover is blanketing the majority of the bay area from san francisco down to the south bay as well. we're starting with temperatures mostly in the 50s and the 60s. if you have any plans to get outside today, don't be afraid of this cloud cover. you're going to watch it pull back to the coastline by around 11:00. giving us a lot of sunshine for the inland valleys we're going to warm uply. a few 80s are on the map for our daytime highs. i'll guide you through all these temperatures. look ahead for tomorrow and the full week ahead. back to you. >> thank you. we begin in the east bay right now where one city is facing a crisis in its police

forces. antioch needs to hire 50% more officers, and now it's offering ab inisn'tive. a dplr 30,000 bonus. as today in the bay reports, the city wants to ensure they are recruiting officer who is will help rebuild broken trust between the police department and the community. >> the first question that i have is do they want to work for this city, this community and serve this community, or are they just chasing a hiring bonus. >> reporter: the councilman knows the hiring process. as a former lieutenant. at this week's meeting, he voted in favor of extending a program offering $30,000 bnuses to new hires in the police department. the department has 31 officers patrolling the street. the staffing issues continue to be a problem with investigations, by both the fbi and district attorney's offices, which uncovered racist text messages between officers and produced several indictments. >> 31 is not the number we need. we need to probably be more than

double that number. >> reporter: but agencies like the alameda police department are experiencing success offering $75,000 bonuses to new hires. it's attracting hundreds of applicants. but the police chief says it's just one of many recruiting tools. >> what really sell it for me is after i have that conversation with them and we're getting somebody committed to public safety, constitutional policing and is looking to move the profession forward. >> reporter: the councilman knows it's a dire situation for antioch pd, but wants hiring standards to remain high to make sure officers are fully invested in the job. >> i want to make sure we have a police department that the city can rely on. i want to make sure that somebody is not coming just for that signing bonus. >> reporter: the councilman is going to monitor this incentive program over the next year, but he says if it doesn't impact hiring, he wants to discontinue the program.

we have an update in the racist texting scandal. four black murder subpoenas are challenging their arrests by officers involved in that scandal. and now an expert is testifying on their behalf. yesterday a race expert from uc irvine testified in court kpauring the racest text messages with the dehumanization of black people lynched in the days of slavery. that expert testified on behalf of those murder suspects who is are challenging their arrest based on the racial justice act. >> racial justice act is this incredibly powerful new tool that we're still learning how it can best be used. but the fact that it has opened up the ability of folk who is have experienced racial bias in their cases to bring that out into the light is incredible. it's powerful. it's revolutionary. >> the four men are charged with two alleged gang-related murders

that happened back in 2021 in antioch. defense attorneys hope the judge will dismiss all of those gang enhancements and reduce their charges. alameda district attorney pamela price announced she's charging two teenagers in connection with a recent shooting at oakland skyline high school. the shooting happened last week. thankfully, no one was hurt, but it did triggerer a lockdown. the school was closed the following day so police could investigate. a third teen also in custody is facing charges after a gun was found at his home the day after the shooting. if convicted, all three teens face between three to four years in prison. a troubling investigation on the peninsula where a redwood city man is accused of sexually assaulting multiple children. he was arrested yesterday. investigators fear there are more victims and are encouraging them to come forward. anyone with information is urged

general election already, even though he knows he needs to win the nomination first. there were some really significant moments of this interview. i hope that our viewers will have that take away as well. it's also worth noting we're going to have a very extensive panel discussion to break down what we heard in the interview. >> interesting. you interview sod had many people from both sides of the aisle. who would you like to invite on to the show? >> well, i would like to invite everyone on to the show. i just the to make sure that we have a diverse set of voices from all across the political spectrum from our elected officials here in washington to the candidates who are on the campaign trail. i want to make sure we're talking to our community leaders, the folks who impact our political discourse, and make sure that we're really drilling deep, digging deep into all of the issues that we're

covering. i want to make sure i'm on the campaign trail keeping the finger on the pulse of what the voters really care about. what are the issues that are front and center for them. what are the top issues in their mind. that's going to be one of my guiding principles every sunday. >> thank you. kristen lker, thank you so much. >> great to be with you. >> you can watch the full interview with president trump sunday at 8:00 a.m. right after today in the bay. we're going to turn now to it being panic heritage month and ways to celebrate across the bay area. today marks mexican independence day. last night people across the bay area were already celebrating from san jose to san francisco, hundreds of people participated in what's known as mexican independence day. back in 1810 kicked off the movement. that's when the priest called on

>> reporter: tsa check points are a black hole. the tsa says approximately 90,000 to 100,000 items at check points each month. the agency says it holds items for 30 days after that, it sells them. the proceeds pay down a tiny bit of the huge national debt. ken contacted the tsa. low and behold, it found his router in lost and found. and tsa would give it back. but -- >> come and get it within 30 days or it will be disposed. >> reporter: come and get it in chicago. what typically is a $350 flight, according to google, to pick up a $100 router. >> think they didn't realize the flight from chicago to here was permanent. >> they believed the tsa botched the search and was responsible for shipping his router back to hum. but the tsa expected him to pay for chip shipping. so ken contacted us. and our team contacted the tsa. it took action. >> i get e-mails from the person

and please verify your address. i said, you guys are good. >> the tsa shipped ken his router at no cost to him. we asked the tsa for a statement about what happened, but we didn't receive one. the rep did say the most important thing when something is missing is to immediately report it to the tsa so they can look at closed circuit television to determine what happened. which ken did. he has a word of advice for all air travelers. if a tsa agent searches your bag, keep your eyes on it before you put your shoes and belt back on. >> put the clothes on later and just so extend and watch and see what they are doing. >> say you can't see what the agent is doing the whole time. ask them what did you take out then verify your stuff is become in your bag. a few seconds to save yourself time and heart ache. ken contacted us online.
