3:03 pm

3:04 pm
that. we have another if they come in the past hour, police chief officer bill scott said police did not initially have your on but they had to don and for the protections >> no officer is going to stan , to protect the public without protecting themselves when the are getting bottles and explosive should not be expecte to do that. >> the police chief also says they gave those attendance plenty of time to leave after declaring a lawful assembly and before they started making arrests. >> the unsanctioned skate boarding event has been going o for years but people have been hurt in the past, there is a history, here, and it has resulted in the death in the past, the cyclist from 2020 was killed after colliding, in that case, with a skateboarder. then we roll the calendar back to 2017, skateboarder hit, and hurt a police officer. people a the event said the officer
3:05 pm
shoulder checked the skateboarder, but at the time, the police chief said they were interested getting those claims now, it was of is area? supervisor rafael mendel means district. that includes mission work. we talked with him. >> in previous years there hav been significant injuries, last year think there was a stabbing and a sideshow, and graffiti all over the place. in general, it's something the folks in th neighborhood have come to dread every year . by the standards o prior years, in terms of impac on the neighborhood, this was not a great night, but it was certainly not the worst. and, you know, i think there will certainly be time to dissect , in minute detail, each decision made by the police department and i'm sure that folks will do that, but from my perspective a a neighborhood supervisor, this
3:06 pm
event ended relatively early and you could drive down dolore street by 9:00 that night. >> police got to work best. we know that a lot of you are talking about the clash in dolores park. joining me now is president of the sentences go police officers union, tracy mcrae. it is a difficult decision to have especially on the monday in the wake of all of this but i want to roll a portion of an exchange from someone who is there and get your reaction. swatch. >> to go after 113 people arrested, some of them minors, it is immoral, it is wrong, and there needs to be a ability. >> so, he says, account ability my question is, accountability for whom? we know there were bulletholes in windows , and th door of one person's house that we saw we saw a muni bus get tagged, kind account ability ca happen to bridge in this community? >> thank you for having me
3:07 pm
really think the accountability like parents being accountable for kids, kids accountable for their actions. unsanctioned events are very hard to police because we do not know who is showing up. right? in this case we have people show up who brought weapons, who brought serious fireworks . ammunition right ? bottles and rocks to throw at police officers, who started out not wearing any rio gear, they were just out to hel facilitate the event. and then, because it went so sideways, they had to take other resources, from other neighboring districts, to come in and help out . what we see i that no police officer is going to be standing there getting hi in the head with a bottle, getting hit in the head with a firework, no one wants in 1000 thrown at them because you are talking about serious injuries happening. >> right. so, you can see the video there and you're saying right here went on because there was the threat of bodily
3:08 pm
injury from things being thrown at them, and things blowing up? >> prior to the sergeant gettin assaulted, officers were walkin around, just in regular uniform once a sergeant got assaulted, where he was hit and slashed and suffered an injury, then they put on protective gear . right? and then, but had to dea with unruly crowds. people coming up to them, throwing things at them. you can see, i other videos, where bottles are being launched at them. and, all these things are happening, and other people are around, people are trying to get to their homes, right? people who just want to come and go. if yo look at what happened to that lrp, right? when you saw somebody climb up on top. imagine the outcry if police ha not been there, and that person climbed up , actually hit that high voltage line, fell off and killed themselves. >> what would have happened in that case? that obviously open
3:09 pm
the city to litigation. >> a lot of litigation. >> the taxpayer ends up paying for it? >> right. again, sanctioned the event. get with community organizers. have something in place where you have medical and fire unseen and you have a small contingent of officers on scene, also, just to help out and make sure it is okay. i mean, in my hand, i have email from people who live in the are who are saying, you know, blocking the streets and creating extremely unsafe environment for people wanting to peacefully and respectfully use the dolores park area. so, you have families out there jus wanted to go out and enjoy the day, but could not because this unruly mob type took it over an just caused chaos. >> we appreciate you coming here. we know you are getting emails in real time, we could take the entire show talking about this. but, thank you so much for having this conversation, especially fresh from such an event. we want to hear from you, as well. it is s important that we hear from our viewers and know what is happening. tracy mcrae, thank you so much, president of the police officers association ,
3:10 pm
thank you.ople are sounding off on social media and are talking about this. summer calling out sf pd saying this i a bad use of resources. others, highlighting the fact that the event was not a sanctioned event. so, let's continue this community conversation, post comments with the hashtag kpix. it's important to talk about these things. still ahead, and east bay security city dealing with a cybersecurity attack. importan to deal with. what would you do with lots of money in the powerball drawing? tonight there is a lot of cash up for grabs. we will let you know where the jackpot stands. bigger things to talk about in the weather, too, in the las hour, the weather service has issued an extensive heat watch for a large portion of the bay area as we approach the weekend but i will show you
3:13 pm
hayward, friends, listen up. the city of hayward is dealing with a cybersecurity attack. they discovered the breach of justice today. 911 dispatching emergency services still up and running for you bu the city says so far no important information has been leaked. if you have a business to do with the city of hayward, you have to call city hall go there directly, in person. now if you want to check out a book
3:14 pm
or return one, just know that the library is open, but your public computers there, at the library, are down. we will be watching it closely for you in hayward and good afternoon to you out there. after the next few weeks, cbs news bay area will be shining an important light on in financial issues, and the way that many of us are working to protect the environment for generations to come. you can look for our stories on project earth, the path forward. in the meantime, we have you covered. cbs environment reporter david schechter is looking into the impact of climate change on something that we face all the time, the reality of wildfires, and the risks there. in fact, david deep into the forest of montana for a weeklong series o stories and we have a preview for you. >> this is one of my favorite trees of all-time. from afar just looks like okay, there's fire but we can go in and count >> you so there's more than one fire that did this? >> several fires. the first cam along and damaged the tree here and then it kept going to seal up the wind, and then the fire
3:15 pm
fire number two came and damage the tree nine, 10, 11, 12 , 13 >> reporter: this has been through 13 forest fires? >> at least. >> reporter: and still here and doing great? >> yeah. >> reporter: is huge. >> that's why it's one of my favorites. top 10. >> reporter: will we see the other nine? >> that's going to be a lot more than a 15 minute walk. >> reporter: trees are very resilient. >> so is david schechter. he is out of the forest now, telling us more about that tree, that shows us how forests are threatened by extreme fire. tel us more about how this is relevant to our viewers? >> reporter: it is great to se you. it is amazing how many fires that tree saw and survive every 10 to 30 years there would be a fire, historically, to clear out the forest floor o trees and brush, and that prevented bigger fires. it was national policy to keep fires
3:16 pm
out of the forest, and now fue has built up and when fires happen they are much bigger and hotter and they threaten those older trees. have evolved to coexist with fire but now they are being killed by fire becaus it is so intense. >> here in northern california we have forests that are national treasures. what is the take away for us in the bay area? >> i think it is important to think about solutions, adaptations and solutions we cannot solve the entire problem, but the idea of fire, setting these intentional control fires to burn off dead trees and brush , prescribed fires, the call that. when as we saw a fire like that, in southern california's , researchers have found big way to respond faster to fires and
3:17 pm
that is important because if yo have a quick reaction to a fire can keep it from going out of control. we have these cameras in the mountains that can spot little puffs of smoke as they come up, and get to those fires fast , before they go on for weeks and weeks. >> you know, there are so many reasons why your reporting is s important, not only for public safety, and for the preservatio of national treasures, the source entries but here in the bay area, there is an economic angle for this. insurance companies pulling up because of the risk of wildfires. these conversations are so vital to where we are and where you live you will be sharing a new story every day this week about how w are all learning to live with fire and the risk of fire. david, my friend, once again, m silver haired friend with black glasses, you wore it better. yo beat me again. >> great to see you, buddy. >> you can watch our on the dot special, streaming on kpix.co and the cbs news at.
3:18 pm
meteorologist darren peck, hello, my friend. >> we have had things working i our favor this season so far. w are not thinking about the fire season, but there will be fire weather concerns at the elevation of the hills. >> there's a lot of dry grass out here. >> and temperatures by friday, while there are no fire weather watches, there are heat advisers. let's start by showin you how we will warm up over here. this is the seven day forecast for concord, this is the percentage of spot for thes warmest inland valleys for contra costa county, right here look at that one. 101. by the time we get to sunday, we are back to triple digits, the heat will come on pretty fast. i wil show you the current numbers fo where we are right now. we are nowhere near that right now, so it will be a fast uptick in the numbers, and we will have to get reactivated to heat. we wil do this again for one of the location, what to do the seven day forecast for san jose. this is a good way to do the comparison on what we typically
3:19 pm
think of as two of our warmer microclimates. obviously concor is higher, but here for the santa clara valley, you are still reaching the low 90s. you should be around 80 for this time of year. so, no breaking records, but you are well above average. this places a good part of the bay area into what we would consider the moderate category for heat related healt impacts. we can see that most of the inland valleys there are shaded in orange . now, if we switch the vantage point and instead of looking at where the heat risk wants to draw our attention, we put the actual excessive heat watch on top of that, now, take a closer look a the bay, and when we do this, you can see, the locations that are right in the immediate shoreline that have been left out of this but this is classic when we get big spikes in heat. if you are near the water, you will be in the worst of this but in any of the inland valleys, you have the outline showing you friday morning, going until sunday night. in
3:20 pm
the meantime, we take a look at how we are doing out there, marine layer coming in over there, this feels wonderful, fo today. 82 degrees in concord, 82 in livermore, 72 in san jose remember those numbers, when we look ahead now to the daytime highs but this is where we will be this afternoon over your par of the bay and now i will just fast-forward this to saturday, and you can see the differences on their. noticeably warmer. i the seven day forecast we have already covered a lot of this, since it is going to, low 80s b saturday. you are not in the excessive heat watch, here. microclimates in the north and south bay, these numbers again on friday into sunday, that is the timeframe to be aware, and of course the beaches. it will be great beach weather next week, 70s and sunny. >> darren, that is magic stuff you are doing there. >> helping us push the
3:21 pm
important things forward, and hopefully clarify the story. >> yes. and to our viewers, you have not seen nothing yet. that is a little taste of what is to come. darren, thank you. let's talk about other numbers that are swelling and real-time. the powerball drawing is tonight an the jackpot is now up to $650 million. what would you do, right? no winner was announced in this weekend drawing. if you are keeping track, this is the ninth largest jackpot in powerball history. a lot of you dream at night, like i do. man of you are heading to your loca convenience stores and playing for the 11th straight week, nobody has been able to pick th right, nation of members. that is why it keeps going up. the next drawing is tonight at 8:00 your chances of winning the jackpot are one in 292 million but, someone has got to win. i say, dream big. coming up next, puppies wit a purpose. we will introduce yo to a unique program connecting puppies with first responders, an

purpose. this is jimmy smith an his canine , beretta . they are the first to be paired up thank to a newly formed nonprofit which is pairing service dogs with veterans, and first responders. >> i used to have a lot of anger issues and stuff. >> reporter: jenny first met beretta as a young puppy. >> is done a lot for me. this whole program has been great. >> reporter: here is what makes the urban pause program unique from other service dock programs. it is the recipient who is actually training their partner., starting at puppies . >> beretta, desi, zero, peanut and wes . >> reporter: it is in jet
3:26 pm
down's warehouse, where the training takes place but he is retired police officer and know the stresses involved in the job. >> to me, this is the most gratifying thing i have ever done. i was a police officer fo almost 20 years. so, this, to me, is giving back. giving back to the first responders and the veterans that give up so much for us. >> reporter: like carlos, paire with wesson. harless is a san mateo police officer who has a prosthetic, after he fell asleep at the wheel on a shift one night and got into an accident. that was in 2018. in 2019, his son was diagnosed wit cancer. >> as a father, you know, you want to reach out and do everything possible for your kids so they are great and fantastic and healthy. so i wasn't even thinking about me, at the time. and then, we got him, and it was awesome, with so many different things that occurred. >> reporter: the most noticeabl to the eyes of a canine trainer >> both carlos and jimmy, probably at three weeks, they were smiling more, they were
