francisco , but not like this. and a slot machine key not working. a cybersecurity nightmare on the vegas strip tonight. from kpix, this is the late news with sara donchey on cbs news bay area. >> hello, i am sara donchey. the city of oakland is in a crime crisis. two were shot and killed and two others were shot and wounded. a local dj name dj peña was shot and run over by a car on sunday morning. he had said he wanted to make oakland a better place. >> i just want people to understand that people do care about them. >> reporter: this is just one example of oakland dj peanuts' giving spirit. he apparently drove to skid row in l.a.
11:02 pm
during the pandemic and bought 500 blankets to donate. early sunday morning, friends identified him as the young man who was shot on 14th street in downtown oakland. one of his closest friends was one block away late saturday night when shots rang out. >> i was down the street. >> reporter: the emotions are still too raw. he said that peanut had been enjoying a fun night out. >> and he was shot, literally on the same block. came up here. i told myself, i hope it is not somebody that i know. it was peanut. >> reporter: he said that peanut had just bought
11:03 pm
late-night food and was surrounded by friends when he was hit by gunfire. the two spend five nights a week together, often performing at events, but as smoove said, he had taught peanut how to dj last year. >> he said, i got kids. i need the money. he noted me to be a great father, but every time i paid, he would be like thank you, cause. diapers and formula. >> reporter: omid ghani was working at his restaurant when he heard gunshots. everybody else ran inside his restaurant, terrified. >> we learned that there is actually something going on. >> reporter: oakland police have not released information on a suspect or motive, but as
11:04 pm
smoove said, his positivity and talent reached strangers. >> what will you miss the most? >> is passion for everything, for people. he walked away from the giveaway giving the shoes off his feet. >> reporter: for some perspective, oakland police recorded 87 homicides. oakland just committed to spending $2.5 million to ensure that when you call 911 you get a faster response. a report found that the city is struggling with slow response times and has vacancies at its dispatch center. it is an understatement to say that self driving cars have been divisive in san francisco. we have seen lots of videos of robotaxi's blocking streets and even a couple of crashes. some opponents have started putting traffic cones on the hoods and the point is that they want to confuse and disable the cars.
11:05 pm
they say they are not ready for prime time and should get the axe, but then somebody literally did that. this video was taken near buchanan and haight over the weekend. somebody with a hammer and acts unleashed on this driverless car sitting in a crosswalk. the vandals smashed the windshield and windows before going after the car 's sensors. the front of the car was already tagged with graffiti. crews filed a police report and called the vandalism "deeply troubling." the company added that while there was nobody inside the car, its priority is to operate safely under all conditions. san francisco's biggest conference of the year is back tomorrow as 40,000 people and some celebrities come into town for dream force, which is billed as the largest software conference in the world. as wilson walker reports, this one is pivotable because it could be the first time salesforce comes to the city if conditions on the streets don't change.
11:06 pm
>> where are you from? >> i am from the north of england. >> you have been here a few times? >> i have been here probably about three times in the last 20 years. it is a beautiful city, one of my favorite in the world. >> reporter: adam jones of leads is among the tens of thousands visiting san francisco, but he is no stranger to the city. he said the problems started grabbing his attention several years ago and he is not sure if things are getting much better. >> it is probably a tough one to answer. from what i have seen myself, being in a different part of the city i have stayed in this time than other times, maybe it is there, but it feels worse. on an uber ride last night you see an awful lot of disruption and it is very sad to see. >> reporter: a lot of attention is being paid to the city's relationship with dream force. it is easy to find those who had questions about the conference's future, and that obviously includes those who might have the most at stake.
11:07 pm
>> the two days are good, but in general there is still nothing going on. >> reporter: the oasis grow was packed when ahmad zukair said that the city gets packed. over the coming weeks, san francisco will make countless different impressions on different people from different places, staying in different parts of the city. >> yeah, depends on where you are from and what you regularly see. >> reporter: as for the question of if it comes back? >> i mean, yeah. i wouldn't see any issue with it. i would not have a problem coming here. i come to san francisco pretty regularly. it is one of my favorite cities! >> i would love to come back,
11:08 pm
absolutely. i love the city. beautiful place. if you cannot solve the problem but help the problem, i think people will feel safe and people will come back. it has so much to give. >> this will be dream force's 21st year and the guest list will be crowded. rainn wilson and jane goodall are also expected to show up. it has been 22 years since hijacked planes crashed into the world trade center, the pentagon and a pennsylvania field. nearly 3000 people were killed. people gathered at ground zero today to remember the lives lost. victims and families read the names of the dead and personal messages. it is also a time to remember the victims who died as heroes, like bay area native betty on . she was on the first plane to strike the trade center and the first person to tell authorities about the
11:09 pm
hijackings. organizers in palo alto said the goal of the peace picnic is to honor not only the victims and people impacted that for people from all faiths and backgrounds to come together. >> people said they were dreading that day. they were hating that day. but oftentimes they left our program and felt at ease. they felt calm. they felt that yes, if we work together, things can be different. >> in san francisco, city leaders and firefighters got together to honor the 343 new york firefighters who died in the attacks. slot machines out of commission. some people could not even get into their rooms. the cybersecurity issue that forced one vegas hotel owner to get help from law enforcement. an intersection swallowed up. the sinkhole that could cause problems for days in san francisco. >> i don't know what to say. this is overwhelming.
11:10 pm
what it took to rescue an american researcher and one of the deepest caves in the world. clouds and fog spreading out across the bay area. temperatures reached into the 80s and 90s, but the cooldown kicks in tomorrow. how long it will cast , coming up in the first alert forecast. and the injury that sidelined aaron rodgers in his first series as a jet. it was a wild night from start to finish. vern has
11:13 pm
it could be the plot of the next oceans movie. people were ready to risk it all on the casino floors in vegas today and then everything stopped. the packers might have hit one of the biggest resort groups on the strip, mgm hotels and casinos. you don't usually see many slot machines out of service, but these machines could not take your money even if you tried. just ask the disappointed tourists who are trying to have a good time. >> when i tried to pull the ticket out and put it back in, it won't take it. we were just trying to sit around and figure things out. >> i tried to use our key. >> it went far beyond the casino floors. some guests could not charge things to their rooms or use their room keys. as brett forrest says, mgm is turning to the fbi to figure out who is behind it all. >> this has to be costing mgm millions of dollars. >> reporter: on sunday, systems
11:14 pm
that mgm began shutting down including the company website and more. >> it got worse and worse until we had no access at the end of the day. >> reporter: we agreed to grant them anonymity to speak freely. >> more and more people lost access to everything. just throughout the day it was like oh, phone lines are down. scheduling is down. now workday is down. not everything is down. >> reporter: mgm simply called it a cybersecurity issue affecting some of their systems, saying that they alerted law enforcement and began shutting down systems to protect data. >> like any system, the weakest link can bring the whole thing down. all it takes is for one employee to click on a link. >> reporter: mgm is said to have a top security team, but this incident exposes continued
11:15 pm
vulnerabilities. >> this is something that will continue. as technology gets better and faster and more sophisticated, actors will find these ways as well. >> reporter: he now runs a cybersecurity firm like the hack that led to the personal details of 100 million people, he said this incident could have been in the making for months or longer. >> is it because it is the first day of the nfl season? is it because of the massive amount of events going on or people on vacation right after labor day? >> good point. we still don't know if any customer data was compromised, but some of the cybersecurity experts are encouraging them to change passwords and keep an eye on their credit. apple is getting ready to unveil its latest iphone in cupertino tomorrow. the biggest expected change is that apple is probably getting rid of its lightning charging port and
11:16 pm
replacing it with a standardized usb-c port, and that is a huge change. apple has used its lightning port for a little over a decade and that would mean new chargers. the event streams tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. it took over 200 people and more than a week of planning, but a professional cave explorer was just rescued from 3000 feet under the earth. mark dickey was trapped in a cave in turkey after he got severely sick with stomach bleeding during an expedition. not a good situation. rescuers had to do a lot of planning. they used a stretcher and an incredibly elaborate rope system to pull him up narrow vertical shafts. even had to widen a few of them. when he finally got above ground, he was in surprisingly good spirits. >> i got to tell you, i don't know what to say. this is overwhelming. this is a first.
11:17 pm
>> yeah, all smiles there, after he went through what was obviously a very wild and scary ordeal. he was taken by ambulance to a helicopter where he was transported to a hospital where he will recover. it could be days before a massive sinkhole that opened up in middle of a san francisco intersection is finally patched up. this all started around this time last night when a 16-inch water pipe burst under fillmore and green. the break sent water rushing down the block, flooding businesses along union street. >> it is a big mess. huge mess. i hope tomorrow is much better. right now they blocked all around us. >> the pipe has been in service since 1949. tonight we learned that the break has been fixed and work and start on the
11:18 pm
street. hawaii's kilauea volcano is erupting once again. crowds of spectators rushed to volcanoes national park on the big island to see it with lava shooting 100 feet into the air. quite a spectacle. the good news of course is that there is no immediate threat to people or property. kilauea last erupted in june, so fairly active. the world's most active volcano! >> i would love to see that! >> that is where you and i are different. i know it is probably fine and you stay a safe distance away. >> it is a little bit different from mount saint helens where when it blows it is devastating. i mean you don't want to be right up next to it. i would stay a little bit further back. >> i am just going to watch from here! >> i think it would be more impressive in person. >> probably, but we will leave that to you! >> i was a storm chaser, so
11:19 pm
there is a little missing from my brain! there is a lot missing from my brain! let's take a look at the weather. little storm systems swinging towards the pacific northwest that will be close enough to send the tail end of a cold front through the bay area, so northerly winds will kick in and the onshore breeze will help to cool things off as well, but the northerly wind direction means that we could get some smoke drifting out towards us from the fires that are still smoldering in far northern california. if you see hayes on the horizon, it will be elevated in the atmosphere. surface level smoke will show a little bit drifting in but will not be concentrated enough to really deteriorate our air quality to any great extent. a bit more of that might make its way into the bay area by wednesday but i think the most likely place for moderate air quality will be in the north bay. everybody else is still in the good area tomorrow. pollen count will continue to climb in the median category tomorrow and the medium-high category wednesday, thursday and friday and yes, ragweed is at the top of the list. we have reached that part of the allergy season. excuse me, looking
11:20 pm
outside their , we have some fog spreading out nbc temperatures continuing to drop off as the fog makes its way across the bay. low to mid 60s across the board and these temperatures level off in the mid-to-upper 50s later tonight with fog pretty widespread to begin the day on tuesday but it will backup out of inland valleys fairly quickly. unobstructed visibility except on the coast. you will see a little bit of sunshine peeking through as we head into the afternoon. temperatures tonight drop into the mid-to-upper 50s. the warmest spots are 60 degrees but comfortable tuesday morning. highs tomorrow or maybe about two to four degrees below average tuesday afternoon, but it is a short cooldown. we warm back up by wednesday and thursday. mid-60s along the coast. 70s down the peninsula and right around 80 degrees in san jose . upper 70s
11:21 pm
in the tri-valley with most inland temperatures hitting the 80s and even the hotspots only in the upper half of the 80s. no 90 degree readings in store. mix of 60s and 70s around the bay with low 80s for most of the north bay until you go further north. even there it stays short of 90 degrees. if you are heading to the giants game tomorrow evening as they try to keep the winning streak going well they take on the cleveland guardians, temperatures are in the mid-60s for first pitch and cooling down throughout the rest of the evening. temperatures in the city will not change a lot but there are some cooler readings in store by the time the weekend rolls around. temperatures running about four or five degrees below normal by saturday and sunday. temperatures have a more significant drop towards the inland valleys of the north bay, from 86 on wednesday to only 76 for a high next monday with a similar 10 degree drop for the tri-valley and the delta, going from upper 80s to the upper 70s as we start off next week. not much change
11:22 pm
along the coast. mid-60s with a little bit of sunshine every once in a while, but tomorrow morning likely going to be a foggy start for a lot of folks. >> that's okay! it has been difficult to complain about our weather. >> september and we have not had significant offshore winds or heat waves, even, so we are doing okay. >> especially when you compare us to the rest of the country, a lot of people going through a lot, we will take this. all right, paul, thank you so much. finally a flood we can get behind! why this town was suddenly awash in a river of wine. vern? straight ahead in sports, crazy monday night. we got the latest on aaron rodgers. what a night, after just four snaps as a jet! and nine innings? not

tomorrow. at 10:00 a.m. season-ticket holders can buy them at noon for dub club members and 2:00 p.m. for chase cardholders. everybody else has to wait until wednesday at 4:00 p.m. for their chance. the season opener is on tuesday against former worrier kevin durant and the phoenix suns. basketball is one thing but we have got to talk about football! you could not have scripted something so shocking! >> just to see it happen, then as soon as i saw and heard achilles injury, i was like, okay. >> aaron rodgers and the achilles? not a good combo. >> you were just talking about kevin durant! just terrible. all the hype, the jets hard knox debut series, aaron rodgers, the face of the franchise. over 83,000 waiting to see him on monday night football and after just four snaps it is likely over for number eight. hosting the bills on this play, rogers was sacked, taken to the locker room and x-rays negative. the team fears that aaron rodgers
11:27 pm
suffered a serious achilles injury which would likely end his season. next man up was zach wilson! check this catch! what? ridiculous! how? incredible grab to tie the game late! the game went to overtime! buffalo, pointing to xavier gibson, breaks to the outside, and he gone! 65 yards for a walk-off touchdown and the jets won 22-16! i don't know if that will soften the injury blow to rodgers, chico native and former cal bear. 16 months after his elbow surgery, brock purdy threw two touchdown passes to brandon aiyuk in a 30-7 route at
11:28 pm
pittsburgh. asked about the injury, the co-captain responded. >> in the moment it was like this is what we are supposed to do, this is what we expect out of ourselves. at the time i was not thinking surgery or anything like that. it was like man, we are here to win. pivot to baseball and these kids were on the move at oracle park! look at this, erin! the giants trailed the guardians 4-3 in the 10th. blake sabol was clutch, singling in peterson and tying the game! the next batter was late-night lamonte wade jr.! swung on, skipped by myles straw and walk-off. the giants win their fourth straight game 5-4 tonight and remain just 1.5 games behind arizona for the last wild-card playoff spot with 18 games left! and shout out to shea langeliers!
11:29 pm
his a's at houston! this was in the seventh inning as the avoid the 100th loss with a 4-0 win. aaron rodgers, i just feel so bad for him. i have had that injury. i am no big joc , but i have had that injury playing racquetball and it cost me a solid year after the surgery. terrible! >> of course everybody will be asking about his future. we will see. vern, thank you so much. takashi has been calling modern-day andy warhol. he is one of the most popular contemporary artists in the world, and now you can see his work and san francisco. his first ever solo exhibit is in the city and tickets are available online. tens of thousands of techies will be showing up at
11:30 pm
moscone center tomorrow for dream force and probably some coffee, brought to you, by so many things these days, by a.i. the caffeine machines have now been deployed at dream force. if you don't need coffee, you probably need wine, a little bit like the absolute flood of red wine that rushed through a town in portugal this weekend. over 2 million leaders came gushing into the streets after two large tanks burst. it was enough wind to fill an olympic -sized swimming pool, and still somehow not enough for vern! firefighters had to divert it before it ended up in a nearby river. generally have to do something great to get your name in a museum, but in this case all you had to do
11:34 pm
i know you about the museum type -- >> yes, yes, of course! >> okay, but this is a little bit different! we are going to washington, d.c. for this one, vern! very dignified! it is pretty much the opposite of the smithsonian, so not very fancy. it features a carefully curated collection of items that will not impress, guaranteed. it is called the museum of failure and features some of the best worst business ideas ever, like the hula chair. this is fish-flavored water for your cat. there is even this addition from last year, starbucks-oil infuse coffee which many drinkers reported as not kind to their intestines. >> you learn a lot from failure. seeing that is part of
11:35 pm
the journey and part of our path to innovation. >> that is a fancy way of saying don't put oil in your coffee if you are not near a restroom! the museum of failure started in 2017 in sweden and is now traveling the world. >> do you think it will come here? >> i see nothing that will satisfy my pallet! >> you are not into the oil-infuse coffee? >> no, not at all! >> a lot of people had some complaints. >> thanks for watching! the late show with stephen colbert is coming up next and the news continue streaming on >> calling all conservatives. a new dating app called the right stuff just might give you a chance to meet your true match. the app is created by our very own kayleigh mcenany's sister
