later in the hospital. others who arrived on the scene are also under investigation. >> he is in handcuffs, moaning on the ground, and everyone is walking around nonchalantly like it's business as usual. it should be accountability for everyone on the video. >> that is the attorney for the family. five officers have now been fired and are facing charges including second-degree murder. two sheriff's deputies and two firefighters who were some of the 1st to care for nichols have also been placed on leave. the video of the arrest has renewed calls for police reform. the former president of the fbi agents association says departments need to return to community policing. >> this was a beating, clear and simple. and goes to the training. it goes to the hiring. it goes to the lack of community involvement by a unit such as this. but they need to be part of that community and

talk to people, get out of their cars, not aggressively talk to people and run up and drag them out of the car, but have communication with the people in your community, be part of the community, and that's how good policing takes place. >> we can tell you people in oakland were in their community over the weekend calling for reform within policing. hundreds marched down broadway to the oakland police department. they say they were fed up, hurt and angry by yet another police killing. they weren't the only ones feeling this across the bay area. >> i'm tired of black men getting killed by the police, black cops or white cops, they are all blue to me. >> they need policies in place. hold people accountable to those policies. create a culture where that kind of behavior is unacceptable. i think we have a code in this organization where that type of behavior is unacceptable. >> so as far as national police reform, the major conversation in our country, the family's attorney is calling on the senate to pass the george floyd justice and policing act.

>> how ve a quarterback? pretty [ bleep ] to be honest. >> it was painful. so, i couldn't throw anything probably over 10 yards or five yards. so that's why we just had some screens , that was the only option when i went back in. >> he could not throw the ball. it was rough on him. we did everything possible to build him up. the only thing he could do, he couldn't even throw the ball five or 10 yards. he was just trying to do whatever it was. >> with the red and gold report, i am vern glenn. >> we know you are still feeling it. we just got an update on his injuries. he has a complete tear of the ucl in his throwing elbow and will need surgery. we are told if that is successful he could return. it is going to take six months. so we looked at the calendar. that looks like you could be up and running by the

start of training camp, fingers crossed. the 49ers say they have his back even though he felt he let his teammates down yesterday. >> i am frustrated. but i am more sad for those guys than anything. they deserve to go to win. >> he ain't got nothing to be sad about. you know? he is the reason we got to this game. when jenny went down, the dolphins, we didn't know what our season would be. he came in and did a heckuva job. >> after the game, a lot of my neighbors had to go for a walk to get their feelings out. we saw you getting your feelings out echoing the same sentiment. someone tweeted, this is linda, that is somebody, next 49er football season we need three brock clones. he was, is amazing. linda adds, go 49ers. another person had this to say. when jimmy g went against miami, i said it was catastrophic. he was able to right the ship and get the squad to the nfc cg. he went on to say, looking forward to

seeing what the future holds for the kid. and then, plenty of fans like destiny are very disappointed. one posted this drawing saying, quote, a student had to make sure he showed me his drawing of property on the ground with multiple players piled on top of him after being sacked. it is rough out there today. nice drawing, young man. the lights that line the bay bridge are set to go dark as devon feel he is about to show you the chance for the lights coming on again really is dependent on some large donations. >> we had high hopes for what it could be for san francisco. it has been vastly exceeded what we hoped it could be. it has become entangled in the city, in the energy of the city. >> reporter: it is one of the most visible and beloved art installations, thousands upon thousands of lights that illuminate and sparkle and adorn the bay bridge each and every night. and they are about to go dark. >> they are suffering in the harsh conditions of the bay bridge, in san francisco bay, they are feeling faster than we can keep up. we will do the responsible thing. rather than

let the artwork decay, we will take it down. >> reporter: they will pull the plug on the lights on march 5th, the project's 10 year anniversary. but how long they remain dark and down depends on the results of an $11 million fundraising campaign. >> there is a possibility that the lights would go dark and never come back. i think, given the resources in the bay area, the love for this project, the generosity of our community, that we will come back. the question is, how quickly will we come back? >> reporter: the plan is to bring lights back with better, more durable technology and twice the number of lights. but that costs money and will take time. it requires an enormous investment by the public in the beauty of art. >> when the bay lights go dark, i believe it will leave a hole in the nighttime sky line and it will punch a hole in the psyche of the city. but what we want to have is a powerful story of rebirth and renewal. still ahead, the untold story of japanese-americans who escaped internment camps in
