it is still active. you see a group of officers next to a backdoor. that is where this all went down. there was a small group playing cards in this abandoned business right there. there is nothing really inside the business just a table and they were all playing cards. that's when two blackmails kicked down the door. they told everyone to get to the ground and demanded money from them. at some point, shots were fired and one person was shot twice in the abdomen. that person is in surgery and extr what's really interesting is everyone was hanging out playing cards, they all bailed except one person and that person waited 10 minutes before making that phone call. police are asking questions about that situation. i spoke to a neighbor who lives nearby. he didn't want to go on camera but said this might be an abandoned business known for selling drugs outside the back door. there is a lot of foot traffic.

condition. new video into the newsroom since the top of our newscast. that scary situation on i-10. a viewer sent us this picture car was up in flames near baseline. nobody hurt here but troopers still have a lot of questions because nobody was even around when they showed up. are they looking for an arsonist? that is what police are trying to determine after a string of suspicious fires sometimes blocks or houses away. >> damage. >>reporter: we are in an alley but this fire started on property and burned its way through the fence. the homeowner says the wood pile where it started didn't start itself on fire so it had to be somebody else that here in the valley. the damage amplifiers have only gotten worse. it's the wake-up call no one wants. >> the doorbell rings and it's the fire department telling me

runs out, and his truck that he just rebuilt, torched. >> about 1520 foot tall flames. >>reporter: he grabbed a hose with firefighters with one word in mind: arson. >> there was no ignition source back there so the fire department thinks someone started it. >>reporter: blocks away, this trailer catches fire. owners used a fireworks in the sure 01 a police officer. reports of a car followed. then, tom gets that same fateful door knock. house and if it spread, i needed to be prepared to leave. i have two children. >>reporter: his neighbors house was being gutted. >> the whole back of the house, flames shooting up. >>reporter: now, a trend. >> kind of paranoid now.

emotions escalating just like the fires in this neighborhood is ready to send a message. >> we look out for each other and this is unacceptable. we are going to find you. >>reporter: police really can't say yet if the fires are commit to but they are working with investigators to figure that out. meantime, people reporting any suspicious activity is what they really need to get to the bottom of this. >> their job title is intolerable to one woman, it's lifesaver. police say this man, alonzo cabrer last week with a woman who went up to the counter and tried to withdraw $19,000. the teller could tell something was suspicious but didn't let on and said they would go check with the manager when they really called police who eventually arrested cabrera. that woman was kidnapped by six strangers carrying guns who also stole her car. police are still looking for

five guys. he thought he was clever using all fours to break into a home but he didn't know he was being watched. this isn't the first time we have seen these break-ins. >> police hope somebody will be able to recognize him. >>reporter: the security science warned to stop this -- weren't enough to stop this break-in, through the pet door. if you don't believe cindy, take a look at the proof. >> lifted up the doggie door and looked in. >>reporter: when he saw the house was clear, he made his way to the back bedroom. >> through everything out of the drawers, went through all the jewelry. >>reporter: the alarm went off and cindy watched a man inside her home on her cameras. >> you feel like you had been you know violated. >>reporter: now, she hopes someone will recognize him and call same witness to get the $1000 reward. >> sometimes having a large

and here is elijah fifth on the depth chart. and looking up going to i have a chance? he came through. 23 carries, 113 yards, a touchdown and a two-point conversion. he came out afterwards just beaming because he knew what he needed to do. we caught up with him and said great job and he was just beaming from ear to ear. 23 carries, 113 yards, two- point conversion. how do you feel? >> i feel good. i feel blessed with the opportunity that i got tonight. i am real humble for it and thankful for it.>>reporter: you've got to be. what a great feeling it has to be knowing cuts are coming up. >> that wasn't really on my mind. i knew i wasn't going to get the opportunity to showcase my ability so i wanted to maximize

appreciate that. those are people booing colin kaepernick before the game so when the national anthem came on, they were all standing. he went out of his way to kneel down so he didn't stand for the national anthem. many people here did support him but there is a lot of military in the crowd who really took it to heart. >> men and women bleed for this. i've seen for somebody to do that, to get paid millions of dollars, it's ridiculous. >> reporter: a lot of people were also holding signs for colin kaepernick but we can't show them to you on tv. looked like a nice night in san diego. weatherwise. >> a little taste of the monsoon here today. >> a little dust and rain but after all that, it's really
