11:01 pm
of the suspect. . and a breath of bad air blew into the bay area over the weekend. >> good evening. i'm brian hackney. >> i'm andrea nakano. . san francisco is set to close its only safe parking site. >> the bayview vehicle triage center has opened two years ago. it's in a parking lot at candlestick point. amanda hari has the story. >> reporter: dozens of people who live at the bayview vehicle triage center will soon have to find somewhere else to call home and many don't know where they'll go. >> i have no clue. i have been thinking about it. i don't want to go do the street thing again where you go street to street every night because it's crazy. you get no sleep. >> reporter: charles rawls has lived at the safe parking site for about a year. he was
11:02 pm
planning on being there temporarily until he was able to get his vehicle fixed, but it still hasn't happened and he says he's not the on only one who has been denied repairs. >> it's supposed to be triage to bring our vehicles here, get them repaired and we're out on our own, cool, but it sits there broken and the rats get in them, so it gets worse. >> reporter: he says the experience has been tough. >> when i first got here, we didn't have bathrooms. we didn't have nothing. it was crazy. they now put all this money into it and all of a sudden they say oh, you're out of here in february. it's crazy. >> horrible, day after day something torturous like a prison camp, treated very unfairly and we're the bad people because we alerted the authorities. >> reporter: a budget analysis report in 2023 estimates the cost per vehicle at the site to be about $140,000 per year. despite that city officials
11:03 pm
just managed to connect reliable power in october, nearly three years after opening. >> they tried to get in here multiple times. >> reporter: aaron wilson says many of the people who live at the facility feel the city is closing the site partially because they have complained about the lack of basic necessities like ada compliant bathrooms and other facilities. >> they like to retaliate if you tell on them. it's more like a prison mentality where if you're a snitch, you're the lowest common denominator and you'll pay for it. >> reporter: cbs bay area was not allowed on the grounds which has 24/7 security, but one of the residents provided some video. wilson says most of the people who live there are just trying to do the right thing. >> we're the good homeless people. we're here in the shelter like we're supposed to be. we're not out on the street causing trouble and defecating in the street. >> reporter: wilson doesn't have plans for what he will do if he's forced to leave. residents believe they'll have to vacate the property by mid-february, but he's still hoping they can get more time.
11:04 pm
>> what i think would be a good thing would be a lawyer to step forward, a pro bono lawyer to give us a stay of execution on this because we're talking basically a 60 to 70 days here we all have to be gone. it's just not enough time. >> reporter: there are about 30 vehicles at the site. the city says case managers will work with residents to repair vehicles or transition them to permanent housing or shelters, but rawls doesn't think he would want to take it. >> i've seen their housing and i wouldn't. >> reporter: many residents say they're still in shock by the city's decision to close the site and they're trying to remain hopeful that they'll have somewhere safe to go. >> taking a live look outside, the visibility wasn't very food this weekend. a spare the air alert is in effect across the bay area. let's get to meteorologist darren peck. what a stark difference a day makes. that's yesterday. this is the view from sutro tower looking down at the golden gate bridge. can you see it? maybe, maybe not. that's
11:05 pm
yesterday. let's go to today, huge improvement, same camera, same view, same time of day. we dropped a lot of the poor air quality. if we switch over to the weather computer, i can show you. look at the air quality the last several days at moderate and yesterday we really peaked and today you can see what happened. here are the numbers coming way down and air quality improved with. what happened? let's go to the virtual set. first what happened yesterday? why did we get that spike yesterday? a couple of things. one, high pressure, capping lid, smoke coming out of fireplaces, all that's true, but yesterday was different. we've had those circumstances the last four days. why did it spike yesterday? look at the winds yesterday, offshore through the golden gate. look what's going on in the central valley. a lot of that wind, it was subtle, but it was just wafting towards the bay. they had a lot more particulate matter in the air, plenty of fireplaces and smoke, all of it trapped and pushed
11:06 pm
our way. let's go to the high view. you're looking at the wind from yesterday. how did it get better today? the wind reversed and strengthened. we pulled in cleaner air and went back to normal. we're still moderate under a spare the air today, so it's not like it's good, but it's way better than yesterday and the flow in the wind shows you the whole story why, for the most part. see the rest of the forecast coming up in a bit. we've got rain coming friday. see you in a bit. >> thanks, darren. the 49ers just turned in one of their best season performances with a dominating 38-13 win over the bears. the win keeps their playoff hopes alive. matt lively has the latest in the "red and gold report." >> this is the audi "red and gold report." >> reporter: if your national football team is losing, do yourself a favor. schedule a game against the chicago bears. that's all the san francisco 49ers needed to snap a three-game losing streak and prove to themselves that they can still win in blowout
11:07 pm
fashion. >> we are back! we are back! >> we had a great opportunity this week to come out at home and right those wrongs and get back to playing our style doing what we do best. >> reporter: this 9ers defense allowed 30 plus points in two straight games, but they set the tone early against chicago. as the bears headed to the locker room at halftime, they had zero points and four, yes, four total yards. >> i didn't know that. it's good. >> we got our [ bleep ] kicked today and there's no way around it. >> when you are in desperate times, man, you got to grab it by the horns and go get it. so our mentality is to win because we ain't trying to go home early. >> reporter: for the "red and gold report," i'm matt lively. back to news. tomorrow oakland city council will address its $130 million budget deficit in a special session tomorrow it. could mean cuts to the police and fire department
11:08 pm
and other public safety services. police say they are stretched thin and getting thinner. >> it's very difficult to police with the dwindling numbers. we have to figure out what calls we have to take care of first, which ones stand for four or five days. i've been to people's homes and apologizing for four days to take their stolen vehicle report. it's embarrassing for me. >> a recent report said that if the proposed budget cuts don't work, the city will have to declare a fiscal emergency. also tonight, new york city police released a few new photos of the man suspected of killing the ceo of unitedhealthcare. >> the search for the suspected killer is stretching into a fifth day. one picture shows the suspect in the back of a taxi. another shows him walking along a sidewalk. nypd is widening its search and working with other law enforcement agencies across the country. >> police found the backpack the suspected shooter was possibly wearing during the attack. they found it in
11:09 pm
central park, but the gun was not inside. >> saturday nypd divers officered the lake in central park hoping to find more clues. police are trying to track down the bicycle belonging to the suspected shooter. >> let him continue to believe he can hide behind a mask. we're going to rebuild who he is and bring him to justice. >> nypd now think the suspected shooter may have left new york city by interstate bus. so the fbi is now involved in the search. in the middle east crowds gathered in damascus today to celebrate with chants, prayers, and the occasional gunfire. that follows the stunning advance of opposition forces. >> also brought an end to the assad family's 50 years rule that left countless dead under their regime. >> reporter: in the heart the
11:10 pm
history city, the regime falling. scenes like this would have been unthinkable just one week ago, but president bashar al assad is gone. his palace, once impenetrable, now open to a photo-taking public. assad's astonishing defeat was at the hands of an alliance of armed rebel groups who launched a lightning fast offensive and who faced little resistance from the syrian army. rebel forces say they have now "fully liberated" a number of major cities and have also emptied prisons that had become a symbol of the widespread arrests and torture under assad's suppressive rule. in a civil war that up until now had seemed frozen, but as the statues and monuments to the assad dynasty continued to be pulled to the ground, the family's blood-soaked half century of authoritarian rule passed from father to son is now over. ten years ago at the
11:11 pm
height of the civil war assad was then just barely clinging onto power and was rescued by russia and iran along with lebanon's powerful iranian-backed hezbollah militia who tipped the war firmly in its favor through a punishing campaign of well documented war crimes, including indiscriminate airstrikes and chemical weapons attacks, a brutality against his own people that's hard to fathom. russia is now reoccupied with its war on ukraine. hezbollah's leadership has been decapitated after a year of cross-border fighting with israel and iran along with its proxies have also been degraded by israeli strikes, meaning assad's 24-year rule is unlikely to be rescued or resurrected, ushering the new but deeply uncertain era in for syria. a key leader of syria's armed opposition who belongs to a
11:12 pm
group known which used to be aligned with al qaeda has said he wants a peaceful transition of power, but the power vacuum left by bashar al assad is enormous, so amid celebrations there's a deep sense of uncertainty among many syrians. crowds also gathered in san francisco with many saying it's a victory against tyranny. >> people, they will take their freedom. they can express their opinions without being feared or scared of speaking out. still ahead, here in the bay area the jury set to resume deliberations tomorrow in the bob lee murder trial. we've got the latest on the difficult task at hand for the jury members. there's black friday and there's black sunday, how oakland is celebrating its small businesses thi

parts of the bay area dealing with some bad air quality this weekend. this is time lapse video of the san francisco skyline from treasure island. a spare the air warning has been issued banning burning wood or any solid fuel indoors and outdoors. >> and hazy video from downtown oakland this morning, kpix spoke with the bay area air
11:15 pm
quality management district on why they held off on issuing a warning yesterday when the air quality was distinctly worse. >> we usually try to issue a spare the air alert a day in advance and then we sort of keep track again in the morning. we thought there would be some northerly winds that would sort of gradually clear things out yesterday in the afternoon and that did not happen. there was an unexpectedly sort of residual high level of fine particle pollution that sort of stayed throughout the bay area yesterday evening and left it overnight. >> along with the air we have so many other things to talk about today. cold mornings and rain coming back by friday, friday into saturday, and it could be -- well, let me show you. >> okay. >> there could be a series of systems as we get towards the end of the seven-day forecast, but we'll go one seven-day at a time. in fact, we'll start with tomorrow because tomorrow
11:16 pm
morning does have an issue as well. it's going to be cold, colder than you'd gotten used to. some colder air will filter in tomorrow and especially tuesday. tuesday will actually be colder than this by the time we get there because we'll have a reasonably strong offshore wind event that's going to put some gusty winds over the mountains and it's going to allow some colder air to filter into the valley. take stock on this. there's tomorrow and then tuesday goes down a couple degrees from here. daytime highs will be just fine tomorrow. we'll be back up into the mid-and upper 60s. let's talk about that chance of rain since we covered topic number one. actually topic number one was the air quality which we did earlier in the newscast. cold temperatures for tomorrow was topic number two and now we come to three. if you look in the pacific, there's a pretty good complex of storms and they're at the lower latitude. that means they're now aimed at us. they haven't been doing that the past couple weeks and there's not a big block in the atmosphere in front. we've been seeing storms develop here and get denied like this one
11:17 pm
right here going up and over by a big blocking area of nothing between us and there we are where that little group of lights there as we go to nighttime imagery and the storms. that's about to change. let me show you how. we'll put the forecast imagery on and have our really cool looking hi-res satellite imagery of the northern hemisphere. you see the same system there. we put the forecast imagery within that. watch what happens. i'll let this go for about ten days and you'll see aim, the friday system, more on that in a second. we'll slow this down and get specific on at least the first two systems, but i wanted you to see the bigger picture long range. we're not in for a train of storms, but there's more reason to believe the rain will increase for the second half of december. we pretty much missed out entirely on the first half. here's the start of it. that's thursday. so thursday the first weak
11:18 pm
little rainmaker comes through. we won't get much thursday morning and it's done by afternoon, maybe a 0.1-inch of rain. the next system comes in very late on friday. so most of friday we aren't getting rained on and then friday around midnight going into saturday the next system shows up. that's saturday morning before sunrise when some of the best rain from that one comes through and that will stay with us with scattered showers through the remainder of saturday, clears out by the time we get to sunday. those are the main ones we'll look at even though, yes, it is always interesting to look beyond that. in terms of rain for the thursday and then saturday system, put the totals on here, those numbers have gone up through the day. those numbers are higher than they were when we looked at this at 6:00 and the 6:00 numbers are higher than yesterday. that is a trend at least for the last almost 24 hours. bottom line, there's growing confidence in the models as of today that by
11:19 pm
the time we get back here, these systems will deliver, you know, a quarter to half inch of rain. that is nothing compared to what came through here two weeks ago. this is not an atmospheric river. we can handle a half inch of rain just fine. it's not going to be a quick light shower. it will probably impact the drive and outdoor plans saturday. we will update this with each model run and each day to give you the latest. for now, guys, back to you. >> thank you, darren. coming up, the jury is set to resume deliberations tomorrow in the bob lee murder trial. we have the latest on the difficult task at hand for those jury members. "gameday" at the bottom of the hour, it finally clicked for the 49ers. now they got to go do it again. >> we still have everything in front of to us play for. the warriors made some noise on a sunday night.
11:20 pm
did you know that the bay area is home to the greatest beach volleyball player of all time? >> i'm so happy i'm not in a bikini, that picture. >> that and so much more on "gameday" at 11:30.

jury deliberations begin again tomorrow in the bob lee murder trial. nima momeni is accused of stabbing and killing the cashapp founder in april. >> jurors are weighing 21 days of testimony and thousands of pieces of evidence and as our kelsi thorud reports, their job is not as simple as it may seem. >> reporter: after two days without a verdict jurors are set to resume deliberations in the bob lee murder trial monday morning. criminal defense attorney shannon dugan was in the courtroom for the entirety of the trial. she says jurors now have the task of combing over thousands of pieces of evidence to reach a verdict. >> i think they're trying amid six weeks of testimony and evidence presented by both sides to determine if nima momeni killed bob lee without any legal justification like self-defense and if the d.a.
11:24 pm
has proven that beyond a reasonable doubt. >> that's really interesting. there's always that kind of line of thinking that the longer the deliberation, the more likely potentially it could be a not guilty, you know, verdict. i guess, how do you feel about the length of deliberation right now and kind of how the jury has been handling their instructions and moving through this? >> reporter: i mean you're right. typically the longer the jury is out, the better for the defense is generally the perception. if everybody agrees quickly on the evidence and on the law, they could come back with a verdict of guilty faster, although there's always the exceptions, but i also think this jury's working really hard to get it right. i think they shoulder a heavy responsibility for both sides and they're taking their job very seriously. dugan says it
11:25 pm
simple as did momeni kill lee or not. she said the jury has a variety of ways they could go. they have several alternatives. the single charge now is first degree murder. that means murder with premeditation and intent, that nima momeni intended to kill bob lee and that he planned it. so that's the first degree murder charge, but there are lesser included offenses and those are manslaughter charges. if the jury finds that nima momeni may have acted in self-defense, but his fear of bob lee was not reasonable, that would be imperfect self-defense and that would be a voluntary manslaughter conviction and so there's also an involuntary manslaughter conviction, which is essentially criminal negligence. so yeah, they have several alternatives and that could be another reason why this is taking so long. they have a lot to consider in the jury room. >> we'll see if they come to a decision this week. in the meantime, there's

11:33 pm
to the north pole i don't think because santa's too busy now. the plane rode around the airfield for about 30 minutes as the anticipation to land in the north pole and meet santa claus grew by the second. each child on the flight is living with some kind of a medical condition that impacts their daily lives and event organizers say they hoped for at least a few hours kids can forget about all that and just feel the joy of the holidays. looks like it worked out. >> it must be really cold over there. it will be cold here tomorrow. thanks for (♪♪) heartburn makes you queasy? get fast relief with new tums+ upset stomach & nausea support, and love food back.
