now at 11:00 -- >> my whole house shook thinking we were having an earthquake. the next thing is oh my god, we have an active shooter. >> but it all traced back to this san jose storage unit . plus, what any hope of keeping a's in oakland may have gone bust. bay area firefighters sounding the alarm about something you might have in your house right now. >> from kpix, this is the late news with sara donchey on cbs news bay area. on very busy wednesday night, an arrest in a mass shooting that hurt nine people in the mission district. the shooting happened on friday night and in the past our police have confirmed to us that they have hobby or compost

in custody. they said he had several outstanding warrants from several law enforcement agencies. good evening. i am sara donchey. the earlier news was in san jose where explosions started popping one after the other and for a minute or two there was enough commotion that a woman but she was hearing an active shooter, but it wasn't that. chaotic nevertheless. a huge fire broke out at a storage facility and it was what may have been burning inside that caused such a spectacle. this is what is left. live pictures right now of this public storage facility in south san jose. firefighters have a long night ahead of putting out hotspots, cleaning up all the mess and figuring everything out. the fire was on blossom hill road across the street from the westfield oakridge mall. you could hear those popping sounds from the fire. listen. that

piece of video gives you a sense of why some people thought there could've been a shooting happening. look at all this smoke over the san jose skyline for miles, right until sunset. this is a time lapse from our tower camera and we also have new video of when it started. look at that! this is bruce, who posted this video. he said he saw this happening in real time while looking out of his back door. now it is a matter of figuring out why this happened. our len ramirez has more on the fire that spread panic, fear and even desperation from people who saw and heard it. >> reporter: the fire station is right across the street from the public storage building that blew up and caught fire, but in the short response time period the flames were so intense that there was little that firefighters could do to put out the flames. firefighters surrounded the public storage building on blossom hill road in caudle,

spreading water from all sides and over the top, but the flames kept burning. a crowd gathered on the streets nearby, some of them storage customers like diane, who could barely watch their keepsakes go up in flames. >> three generations of family belongings, but the most important thing is it is my father's hole-in-one golf ball that is in there. >> reporter: the fire began with a powerful blast at 6: 30, rattling walls and windows blocks away. things continued to blow up inside as the evening set in. >> i was terrified. i was in my house and my whole house shook. i thought at first, the first thought that came to me was that we were having an earthquake. once that combed down i was wondering if my neighbor upstairs was maybe dropping furniture all over the place. it was just rumbling really loud. then the next thing is oh my god, we got an active shooter, because i kept hearing pop pop pop. really

loud things. >> reporter: the fire quickly grew to three alarms. firefighters realized early on that there was no way to save the property that was burning, and no one was believed to be inside, so the set up defensive positions to guard other storage buildings from the intense flames and heat. neighbors cited the popping and wondered if fireworks were somehow involved. the fire department so far has no answers. >> we don't know what is in the storage unit. the crews are conducting defensive operations. >> reporter: at this point there are no injuries. firefighters will continue pouring water on the building throughout the night and wi begin their investigation as soon as it is safe to get in. >> once again, the explosion sounds are what had all of us in the newsroom wondering what was inside the storage unit. as you heard, firefighters have not told us as of yet, but they

are going to be looking into that for the next few days. as always, for the very latest, just head to our website, kpix.com. yeah! that was loud and all that roaring from a's fans fell on deaf ears at the front office. a day after the athletics pulled in a season-record crowd for a reverse boycott, it looks all but certain that the team is going, going gone. a bill allocating $380 million in taxpayer money for a new ballpark on the vegas strip is headed to the nevada governor as we speak after clearing both sides of the state legislature. the a's issued a statement thanking nevada lawmakers and adding, quote, we look forward to governor lombardo's signature as our next step, but oakland mayor sheng thao said not so fast. she said, quote,

oaklanders know better than anyone that it is a long road between state legislation and shovels in the ground. if shovels do hit the ground it will be here at the tropicana hotel site on the strip, but even if the governor signs off, the move still has to be approved, so i guess, vern, any chance they won't? >> we have a long way to go in this one. i have been in the one in the building that never believed that the a's would move. i was all the way over here! not happening! but after the 25-15 stadium legislation vote, i am coming back over here , and i don't think there is much static standing in the way of the a's moving now. this is a major step for the a's to go to vegas. the a's used the raiders' playbook perfectly and said they would work with the city that would do its due diligence,.the eyes, cross the t's. when the city kept stumbling with the stadium, then they put themselves in a position where they had no choice but to move on to get what they have always wanted, a

new stadium like that. the fight for a new stadium in oakland has lasted a generation! las vegas got there stadium funding plan passed in two years. john fisher, public enemy number one, i get that. but the a's, like the raiders, will say we did everything likely could. the city, they can't take them to court. they're going to lose that. one of three things will happen. the a's will go to the desert, they block it, then they pass it but slap a $300 million relocation fee on the franchise. sarah, that would open up a whole other can of worms. >> all right, vern. we will keep following it. i know you will. >> wheels will be churning! >> we will talk about it in the hallways, too. new tonight, a former antioch police officer who has been fired for use of force is

now being charged with assault. he was terminated in april for this incident during a traffic stop last july, and a warning, the video might be hard to watch. that body camera video released by apd shows punching, kicking, elbowing and kneeing a suspect who was refusing to get into his squad car. he was pulled over for a license plate violation when they found that he had an outstanding warrant. an investigation found four use of force policies which led to his firing, and this week he was charged with a misdemeanor count of assault by a public officer. we should also ntion at is named as one of the officers o of the racist text messages that recently rocked the department, but is not accused of sending or responding to any of them. as far as the assault charge, police chief stephen ford issued a statement saying, in part, the antioch police department is committed to accountability and transparency. this unfortunate

incident is not reflective of the women and men who serve our community. a fire that burned through a walnut creek garage last night started up again this morning, and look at that! it may have been sparked by a battery inside of a vacuum cleaner, and it happened at this house on amherst bury court on white cliff way. the lithium-ion battery was apparently inside of a cordless vacuum cleaner that was just being scored at the garage. the fire was so bad that happens. firefighters had to take off part of the roof of the house. andrea nakano shows us that this is a growing trend that has at least two bay area fire departments very concerned. >> reporter: contra costa county fire says it is not yet time to panic but is time to educate the community, especially since we are surrounded by lithium-ion batteries. crews were busy cleaning up a burned down home. they believe a fire sparked because of a charging

lithium-ion battery. neighbors say this incident makes them think twice about what they are charging and when. >> i am thinking i have to go check every outlet in my house. we leave stuff charging overnight. >> reporter: fires that have been started by charging lithium-ion batteries have been found in contra costa county and berkeley. >> in the last nine days we have had three of these fires. we have noticed an increasing trend towards more of them over the last year or two. >> reporter: they say residents can move devices to the garage and don't leave them charging for days at a time. this includes anything from your cordless vacuum cleaner to your electric toothbrush. >> anything that you use by way of an electrical appliance , use electric power and doesn't have a cord plugged into the wall, it is guaranteed to have a rechargeable battery.

>> reporter: he adds that there is evidence to suggest that improper chargers may be to blame, but more needs to be done to figure out why there has been a rise in cases. >> i would want to know more. i would hope that, you know, the consumer affairs department would look into it, some of the officials that are charged with oversight. these things should be vetted and test >>rt: con fi there are several investigations going on from local fire departments to national agencies. >> the berkeley fire department says it has responded to six fires pertaining to lithium-ion batteries. they were used for charging e skateboards, e-scooters and at least one e-bike. tonight, another red state governor claiming responsibility for sending another group of migrants to california . we introduce you to a man getting his life back on track by introducing you to horses that run the track. >> these guys are caring about

the sources. >> we will show you the unlikely place this is happening and how it could benefit us all in the long run. a rock star used to

cyberattacks on public infrastructure

threaten the institutions we all rely on. when these organizations run on google cloud, they're defended by the same ai-powered security that protects all of google. looks like governor gavin newsom has another bone to pick with another red state governor after two busloads of migrants arrived in southern california from texas. there were eight children among the group of 42 people reportedly from south america, asia and haiti. tonight, texas governor greg abbott says we did it, claiming responsibility for putting them on a 23-hour bus ride to l.a. earlier this month three dozen migrants were flown from el

paso to sacramento and promised jobs and other resources. florida claimed responsibility for some of the flights and said that each migrant consented. they are now getting food, shelter and rest at a local church and meeting with legal advocates about next steps. >> this is part of the cruelty of a political stunt like this, is taking people who are in the middle of the most important process, a process of seeking asylum where their very lives and the lives of their children are at stake and sending them on a bus without any regard as to where they are going to be processed. >> greg abbott said that sending migrants to self-declared sanctuary cities will provide relief to border cities. l.a. mayor karen bass condemned that attend while welcoming the group. it is an innovative program that could benefit a lot of people, more than just the people who participate. here is

one man who found a new beginning in the unlikeliest of places. >> out here, i just let go. i come out here to ease the pain. >> reporter: every morning, julio sanchez goes to the barn. >> you see them when they come in, dusty and dirty and you just groom them up. they enjoy it. >> reporter: a year ago he had never even seen a horse up close, but now it is one of the few things he looks forward to. >> knowing that a horse this big possesses all this power under my command is kind of a neat feeling! >> reporter: at first, the story of a man and his newfound love of horses may not seem all that remarkable, until you realize that the entire farm is smack dab in the middle of pleasant valley state prison, where julio is an inmate. julio

is part of a program by the thoroughbred retirement foundation called the second chances, which teaches inmates to become groomers and stable cleaners using horses rescued from the slaughterhouse. >> i got a second chance just like we do. >> reporter: here, amidst the concrete and barbed wire, redemption and empathy are found in the company of these animals. heidi richards is a correctional officer and the s while the idea is to give inmates the skill they can use on the outside, the program has proven valuable in more ways than one. >> these horses work magic on them. they break down the walls. these guys care about these horses, which in turn teaches them to care about themselves and others. >> reporter: two thirds of inmates will return to prison after their release. programs like second chances are known to reduce recidivism rates . of

the 100 inmates who completed the program, only one has been re-arrested. >> why should they be allowed to be out here with these horses? >> i think the biggest thing is that everybody deserves a second chance. it gives them an opportunity to go out and have a job so that when they go out they don't reoffend. >> reporter: julio is up for release in october, but now he says he is determined to make this stand his last. >> these guys got a second chance. i can also have that second chance and be more successful on the street. >> reporter: helping retired resources find a new beginning while getting his own life back on track. let's talk a little bit of weather with paul. this is the time of year where, you know, if i spend most of my time in san francisco i am in my own

little world, because people in the north bay, the south bay and east bay have very different weather going on! >> it is like a fog globe! we are going to give your voice a little rest for a couple of minutes. let's talk weather here. we are going to continue our gradual warm-up as we head through the next couple of days, all the way through the first half of the weekend, but there will be a temperature drop from saturday to sunday, so father's day on sunday and the juneteenth holiday will be noticeably cooler. temperatures are cool across the board right now. mostly mid-to-upper 50s to around 60 degrees at the moment in concord. that will continue to spread across the bay and will be a fairly shallow marine layer but will be able to infiltrate some of the inland valleys but dissipate quickly in those inland valleys, backing up to the coast already by late morning and even right along the coast i think you will see the sun breaking through as we head into early afternoon. temperatures tonight are drug not dropping much further at all, right around 54

degrees. low to mid 50s through the rest of tonight. tomorrow the highs are very close to normal for this time of kland in the east bay, 70s in the peninsula and near 80 in san jose and for most of the santa clara valley. low to mid 80s inland and in the east bay. that is still warm but slightly below average for this time of year and well below average for the inland valleys mostly because the southwesterly winds are still pushing the marine influence further into those valleys, where is the oakland hills block it from the east bay and the santa cruz mountains block it from the santa clara valley. if you are heading today's game tomorrow afternoon here we have the start time. the game starts at 12: 37, so temperatures will be in the 60s and comfortable out there. the first concert of the new season is on sunday with temperatures in the low 60s and it will be mostly gray overhead with some glimmers of

sunshine. again, sunday will be the cooler half of the weekend, but only by a few degrees around the bay. we will bounce back as we head towards tuesday and wednesday. sunday and monday will be the coolest days for the entire bay area with a more noticeable drop for the santa clara valley. san jose will drop to 71 on monday with a similar drop in the east bay but not much of a decrease in the coast. you go from 63 to friday to down to 59 by sunday and monday. i think you can handle that with plenty of june gloom to go around. vern? what happened on the field for the hot, streaking a's?

baseball up top and hey, nothing lasts forever, but we were falling in love with what the a's were doing. they just pulled themselves up from the major leagues' worst record with a seven-game win streak! how did a's feel right now? oakland looked to keep the race frustrated. second inning, two on and a three-run home run!

this one gave the a's a 3-1 lead. they were in business. that had 3-2 in the fifth, yandy diaz drove one, this one out of reach and it allowed the tying run to score. the a's took control of the game and won 6-3. and the winning streak ends. in the meantime, the giants, getaway game with the cardinals. first inning. we got to see the call up from sacramento and he did not disappoint in his first major-league at-bat in front of family! that of course drew a big smile. here is the game, though. down to his last strike and then this happened. mike yastrzemski! back, deep, away and gone! tied the game and forced extra innings. thairo estrada came through with an rbi single, enough for

yastrzemski to score from second. the giants scored three runs in the tent and swept the cardinals a- five. the giants' record is now 36-32, first three-game sweep in st. louis in 25 years. how about a group shot? stanford baseball full staff and players after they arrived in omaha, nebraska for the college world series for the third straight year! here is the head coach who won a title with the cardinal as a player in 1987. he has been champion his championship ring in hopes of subtle motivation. >> i have a special moment of winning a national championship. i kind of let them notice it and it was like it would be nice if i could get you one of those, too! >> stanford opens up saturday against wake forest. the demon deacons are going to be a problem. heads up! tomorrow at 5:00
