one woman's bold move to get away. and, the summer heat means snakes in the grass. we tag along with a rattlesnake wrangler whose day job might be your first nightmare. >> from kpix5, this is the late news with sara donchey on cbs news bay area. >> hello, i'm sara donchey. carjackers have gotten so bold in oakland. they are working together. they seem to be traveling in groups to accomplish what they want to do. to add another car to their collection. this was the result, an opd cruiser crushed by this van. this happened at 32nd and west streets at 5:00 in the afternoon. it's the latest example of bold

thieves striking in broad daylight. this woman was driving alone in the oakland hills when the car in front of her suddenly blocked the lane on skyline boulevard. >> no! she managed to escape but is too traumatized to talk about it. >> i'm afraid to go out and get my mail. i'm afraid to walk my dog. >> gage escaped would be carjacker. it took her 35 minutes to shake them topping speeds of 100 miles per hour on the freeway. >> i kept yelling. you're not going to get me. no way. no way. >> reporter: city council member kevin jenkins is calling for automated license plates reader ins oakland. >> i want to ensure that people that are committing harm in our

neighborhoods are punished. so what that looks like on the other side with the district attorney's office i'm sure they will take the best thinking into that. >> reporter: district attorney pamela price has taken a lot of heat lately for charging decisions that critics say send a message of permissiveness to young people. >> she calls them our babies. these are not babies. these are disturbed young people and there need to be a consequence. without a consequence, everybody else is looking and saying nothing happens. >> reporter: there were plenty of consequence at this crash scene. two officers and an innocent victim ended up in the hospital with minor injuries. >> so people in the oakland hills are so fed up with this, they called a special public safety meeting tomorrow evening. that will be at montclaire presbyterian church.

the disappearance of a four- year-old girl in fairfield has been a mystery since 1991. tonight, police are taking a fresh look at the cold case after a former pastor was arrested across the country. investigators say 83-year-old david zanstra confessed to killing an eight-year-old girl in the 70s in a case that has haunted a pennsylvania community. gretchen hairington vanished in 1975 walking to a bible camp run by a church where zantra works as a pastor. in the bay area, they think it could be a break in the case of nikki campbell. andrea nakano has more on the possible leads that could finally crack this cold case. >> reporter: fairfield police confirmed 83-year-old david zantra lived here when a young girl went missing and he lived minutes away from the victim. this is where four-year-old

amanda nicole campbell was last seen riding a bike to her friend's house. known as nikki, this dais had a huge impact on the neighborhood. this neighbor remembers the day nikki disappeared like it was yesterday. neighbors went knocking door to door as the community united to find the little girl. >> it was a very big deal. i'm sure if you went to any neighborhood in fairfield, you will talk to people who remember it. >> everybody was scared. >> we held our kids a little closer, a little tighter. afraid that it was in our pretty new neighborhood. who was it. >> reporter: investigators are now talking with authorities in pennsylvania where the murder of eight-year-old gretchen harrington happened. in georgia where this man currently lives to see if he could be linked to nikki's case. he was a pastor at the

fairfield christian reform church at the time she went missing. neighbors hope this could be the lead that gives the family some closure. >> i can't imagine what the family must have gone through at that time. and must be going through still even now to this day. >> reporter: this family needs closure. >> it's been 32 years. they have a right to put their child to rest. >> reporter: we reached out to the family. the mother has since moved out of the area. this age progression photo shows what nikki would look like at age 24. if alive, she would be 36 years old. we turn to san francisco where officers who are trying to arrest one person ended up shooting and killing another. police say that plain clothed officers were trying to make that arrest at fairfax and catalina in the bay view. officers called for backup but the man kept coming. he was shot and later died at the hospital. police eventually did arrest the person they were initially

after. they say they plan to release more information on this at a town hall meeting ten days from now. tonight, san mateo police are looking for a suspect in a deadly stabbing at an apartment complex. they said they were tipped off about the stabbing this afternoon and spent almost three hours going door to door on 37th and 36th avenues until they found the victim. it seems like the victim knew their killer. a bus stolen from modesto was found all the way in milpitas. surveillance video shows the man going on the bus, adjusting the seat like he owned the thing and taking off. transit officials realized something was wrong when a safety feature alerted them that a driver had a cell phone in his hand. that's how they figured out the guy behind the wheel had stolen the bus. police are still looking for him tonight. if you are walking down a trail or outside of your house in certain areas, there is nothing more disturbing than

hearing this. [ rattlesnake rattle ] >> uh-uh. the sound of a rattlesnake will get your attention more than likely. they have bitten at least two people in the bay area so far this summer. a 13-year-old was bitten in calistoga last week. as temperatures go up, so does the demand for snake removal companies. ryan yamamoto tagged along with a rattlesnake wrangler in the north bay whose work is meant to protect people, pets, and even the snakes themselves. >> reporter: it is one of the last things you will want to see or hear. when poking around your home. but for james mcclawsky, it is exactly what he is looking and listening for. >> you ever get used to the rattle? >> no. it is always very alarming. >> reporter: james is a professional rattlesnake catcher who gets pretty busy

during the hot summer months inspecting people's property. >> rock walls are notorious for small juvenile rattlesnakes. even large ones. all these crannies creates a safe place for them from birds, hawks. >> reporter: from rocks and tree stumps, brush and old lumber, he knows where the snakes like to hide. >> james, when you are in a debris pile like this, what are you looking for? >> we are looking for downed plywood like this one here. greats a good hiding spot for the snakes. you can see mice down underneath here. >> reporter: and if they are not in your yard, they are likely hiding near your home. >> normally, they will be running along like, a lot of times by front doors but along the house, you know, they like this cool cement during the hot days. >> reporter: with the help of this dead rattlesnake. >> so this one fell victim to

i'm guessing a hawk. an owl. something. it does have a couple of laceration marks here. >> reporter: he showed us what to look for if you think you have a rattlesnake near your home. >> first of all, you will obviously hear the rattles. they will surprise you. it will be coiled up in the striking position. this head as you can see, really diamonds out. when they are agitated, it will get even bigger. >> reporter: mcclawsky started his north bay rattlesnake removal company two years ago after leaving his job in probation to pursue a passion as a young boy and teenager where he used to catch snakes on the family farm. today, that kid in him uses the snake selfie stick to share his weekly catches on social media. >> it's fun. you get up close and personal.

to the snake. and the reaction when you catch them. >> you don't kill them in. >> no. i don't kill them. nope. they are a good species. they keep down the rodents. they just don't belong near people's homes, pets, and children. >> reporter: finding and catching what you don't want to see or hear, making sure both humans and reptile can coexist. >> uh-uh. the wrangler says he like to relocate the rattlesnakes to a remote area near lake berryessa. remind me never to go there again. now to a close encounter on capitol hill. ufos attracted big crowds. everybody is talking about this tonight. as brian hackney reports, three military officials testified that the military is hiding evidence of alien spacecraft from the american people. >> oh my gosh. >> reporter: the hearings today really began with this incident

in 2015. and another in san diego in 2004. >> it rapidly accelerated in front of us and disappeared. >> reporter: david fraver was in the jet. >> we started to turn back toward the east. the controller said sir, that thing is roughly 16 miles away in less than a minute. you can calculate the speed. >> reporter: ten years later, more close encounters were recorded off the east coast. >> you believe uaps pose a potential threat to our national security? >> yes. here is why. the technology that we faced was far superior than anything that we had. >> reporter: but david grush whose allegations of a government cover-up was headline news had the most shocking testimony. >> have you met with people, with direct knowledge or have direct knowledge yourself of nonhuman origin craft? >> yes. i personally interviewed those individuals. >> reporter: he is a veteran of the pentagon's intelligence community. >> if you believe we have

crashed crafts, do we have the bodies of the pilots who piloted this craft? >> as i stated publicly already in my nation interview, a biologics came with the recoveries. >> were they human or non- human? >> non-human and that was the assessment of people with direct knowledge on the program i talked to who are currently still on the program. >> the big take away for me in today's hearings on this was that there was no real physical evidence being presented are. >> reporter: the seti institute believes there is extraterrestrial life somewhere, just not here. >> it is all witness testimony. which as you know, is not great evidence for anything. >> reporter: the doctor would rather see alien bodies and spacecraft rather than hear about them. >> but when he is asked, well, where is it? show photos? do something to prove that is more than just an assertion of yours and he said well i can't because it's classified. >> oh my gosh. >> reporter: maybe not for

long. >> would you have the capability to defend yourself? >> absolutely not. >> is it possible that these uaps would be probing our capabilities? >> yes. >> yes. >> it looks like we have a problem here that needs further investigation. >> yes. >> he says high level government officials have retaliated, hinted at physical violence used about people speaking out about that. the department of defense say theres is no credible evidence of extraterrestrial activity. paul, what is your reaction to what we saw today? >> something terrestrial. >> a drone. >> not extraterrestrial. something experimental they

didn't know about that is weird. but i mean, the university is so huge and it history is so long. i don't doubt there is life out there. whether it is intelligence life overlapping with us in our proximity and at the same time? >> uh-huh. >> okay. i don't know. let me let you do that. >> the atmosphere above our earth, specifically. let's talk about what will happen and what kind of hornet's nest i have stirred up. fog spreading in. pretty much a copy and paste forecast for friday. a a modest little baby warmup in store for the weekend. you can actually see the trend as we look at livermore the next ten days. with temperatures peaking saturday and sunday. maybe into monday. but within a few degrees of

what's normal. which for livermore is 88 degrees. that's warm. but 91, the highest it will be the next ten days is not exceptional heat this time of year. in fact, the really long range data, it doesn't look like any of that will be headed our way until we get deeper into august. even then, the forecast models are all over the place. more good news is we will have good air quality for pretty much the entire bay area through the end of the workweek and the weekend. the fire burning in south western oregon, still producing smoke. not nearly as much as it was producing even a few days ago. i don't think it will have a major impact on our air quality. there's the fog spreading out from the mark hopkins hotel. temperature ins the mid 50s in santa rosa. everybody else in the low 60ed. on our way down into the mid to upper 50s pretty much across the board by tomorrow morning. the fog will continue to spread across the bay into the inland valleys but in the inland spots it will not last long.

8:00, 9:00 at the latest. back around the bay mid- morning. to the coast, midday. along the coast, i would not expect to see a whole lot of sunshine. not just tomorrow, but through the end of the week. through the weekend, and into next week. as long as we are in this normal july and early august weather pattern. temperatures tonight, there they are dropping to the 50s . even the warmest spots dropping just below 60 degrees. the winds will pick up a little bit as we head through the day tomorrow. it's going to be an on shore breeze pushing into the midland valleys midday. and then the on shore breeze will help to moderate the temperatures inland. not overly windy. 15 to 20 mile-per-hour gusts in the inland valleys with the gusts along the coast closer to the 30 to 35 mile-per-hour range. but that is tolerable. in fact, it's normal this time of year. temperatures near 60 along the coast. 60s along the bay. 70s along the peninsula. mostly 80s inland. the warmest spots as you go into the delta staying below 90 degrees. that's cool this time of year. even 88 degrees can be

described as cool when you compare it to the normal 90s . temperatures peak saturday and sunday in the upper 60s in san francisco. low 70s in oakland. not much of a peak. temperatures further will be a little warmer. we will be back into the 70s in san jose. by tuesday and wednesday. inland in the east bay, the usual hot spots will be, well, the hot spots, saturday and sunday, but only the low 90s . no triple digit heat. and we are back down into the 80s next week with temperatures along the coast. hardly any change and hardly any sunshine either which is pretty par for the course. >> cooler than the ocean in parts of florida i have heard. >> quite a bit. 101? >> i can't even imagine. >> wow. >> thank you paul, we appreciate it. speaking of the ocean, people have been flocking to the santa cruz coastline to try and spot this little guy who likes to bite surfboards. that otter has managed to avoid being captured. fish and wildlife are trying to catch and relocate him or her

for his aggressive behavior, but the frenzy around the search for the otter is creating more problems. >> reporter: tonight, as the search for otter 841 continues, some have been spotted getting too close for comfort to local marine life. >> i have seen people come within a few feet. >> reporter: mark woodward has been capturing the surge for weeks: he spotted numerous people harassing many of the sea otters in the area. >> like the people that go to yellowstone and move right up to a bison and end up getting attacked by the bison. people need to respect wildlife. >> reporter: the u.s. department of fish and wildlife tells kion in a statement, southern sea otters are protected as federally threatened species act. they emphasize the importance of keeping a safe distance from wildlife. >> you can't do anything that would alter the animal's behavior. and we have a rule of thumb of

about 100 feet of distance between us, harbor seals, sea lions. >> reporter: others like venture quest kayaking on the work tell me they are considering a supplemental rental agreement to help prevent people from disturbing the otters. for now, photographer mark woodward has this message for anyone who even thinks about it. >> if i see you getting too close and i happen to be here, i will take a photo of you with my long lens and turn it over to fish and wildlife or post online. >> fish and wildlife have been out there looking for the otter. they have been trying this for a couple of weeks now. the ground was shaking at the home of the san jose earthquakes. the the quakes hosted the event at paypal park alongside the bay area's newest pro women's

team. bay fc. >> outside the line of the game. so excited to continue to watch this. to try to win three times in a row. >> the club will play the 2024 season at paypal park. matt, we cannot wait. >> can't wait. that game, the women's national game. it was a good one. however, did it turn out the way they wanted it to go? plus, the much awaited debut of a top giants prospect who hopes they will add some pop to the lineup.

the giants offense was going through a rut entering wednesday's game against the as . they had scored just 11 run ins their last seven gamesful that's bad. so they called up their best hitting prospect. marco luciano to try to ignite some energy into the lineup. >> how about a big welcome for number 37. marco luciano! >> oracle park on its feet for the first major league at bat. he was ready. swinging at the first pitch he saw. looked threatening. but ramon moriano robs him with a leaping grab. luciano, 0-2. austin slater at the plate. as a pinch hitter. makes the most of it. line drive home run to left

field. giants led 5-3. later second at bat. and he takes one high and inside. from rookie angel felipe. slater was not happy about it. strikes out two pitchers later. san francisco completes the two- game sweep over oakland with an 8-3 win. they will host the red sox friday. slater was asked about the pitch you saw. and he didn't hold back. throwing some shade. >> when the guy clearly has no clue where the ball is going, this roster construction, i have some words for him. and he floats in a curve ball after that. it wasn't intentional. just got to move on. >> the 2019fifa women's world cup ended with team usa raising a trophy in the netherlands heartbroken. there was no doubt that the dutch team was ready for revenge. for team usa, a win would have secured a spot in the knockout

round. but the dutch lit up the scoreboard first. 17th minute. netherlands keeps it alive on the deflection. and joe ward finds the back of the net. the go ahead goal, 62nd minute. corner kick for the americans. capitalizes with the header for the equalizer. team usa turned it on in the second half. but just couldn't seem to capitalize off several good looks. usa on the break away. looks like alex morgan puts the americans ahead 2-1. holed up. second look. that goal is not going to count off side penalty. and it will be one they wish they had back. the game end ins a 1-1 draw. team usa will wrap up play against portugal on tuesday. for now, team usa is leading group b with four points in the best goal differential. the americans will be favored against portugal. a win would lock up a spot in

the knockout stage. >> thank you matt. how one niners superfan used cheetos to

we are counting down to kickoff. they have their first chance to see this year's squad at open practice. young fans tried getting the attention of tight end george kiddle. baird is turning nine. after luring kiddle with his favorite snack, cheetos, he got his wish. >> this might be the best birthday present i have ever gotten in my life. and i'm really happy about it and i love it so much. >> that is so cute.
