we'll have a big cool down coming up. now back to marty. >> thank you. new information surfacing about a palo alto man still being detained in north korea. he once served in a top secret service group. he was involved in a group attacking and killing north korean soldiers 60 years ago. the man was taken off of a plane after a tour. the family is pleading with the north koreans to let him go. emergency crews were at the scene of a commuter passenger train derailment this morning. the new york fire department and new york governor say that four people are confirmed dead. there are also 63 people injured. authorities believe everyone at

the site has been accounted for and the ntsb is on the way to the scene. the big curve where the derailment occurred is a slow speed area and the train's black box should be able to tell how fast the train was traveling a t the time. there were about 31 firefighters at the scene -- 130 firefighters at the scene. after paul walker, who is best known for his role in the "fast and furious" films has died. the l.a. county sheriff's department says speed was a factor. the driver of the porsche said the driver also died in the crash. there you see the wreckage.

walker had been filming for the next movie at the time of his death. pg and e say that many are without power this morning due to a broken power pole. the officials say the power is expected to be restored sometime later this morning. >> well, today marks the 25th world aids day. it aims to raise awareness around the globe about the disease which saw the first reported cases back in 1981. an aids day bike ride is scheduled for later this morning. mike? >> reporter: well, marty, this is put on by aids life cycle. first, the group will pay tribute to those who have lost

their battle to aids. here's the scene from last night, the light the grove gala fundraiser in observance of world aids day. people will gather to observe world aids day, this is free and open to the public. then this evening at 5:00 there's a candle light vigil in san francisco. this is the 25th world's aids day that started back in 1988 and if first reported -- the first reported case was found in 1981. we are expecting a lot of the cyclists to start showing up in the next hour or two. we will try to speak with them as they kick off the event. marty? >> thank you very much, mike. well, we are starting to

get our first look at a man police say is the suspect in an animal cruelty case. police say these are images of the suspect just after he snatched two cats and the belongs of a homeless woman and then threw them in the bay. the firefighters were able to retrieve the woman's belongings from the water, but not the cats. >> i think it's terrible. >> she's known around here. she is a nice, sweet old lady. i'm born and raised in san francisco and that's not how we take care of our family out here. she is homeless, she has a bunch of cats, i mean, come on, whoever did this, karma. karma. >> police plan to charge the

suspect with two count of felony cruelty. police say a grandmother usually ties a rope around the waist of a child when he fishes, but she didn't do it this time. she looked away for a minute and that's when he fell in the water. the police are looking for 62 iphones that have been stolen. police are hoping surveillance video helps them catch the thieves. >> reporter: investigators say an alarm was tripped after a window was smashed and the suspects crawled in. how many suspects are involved is unclear, but the suspects got away with 62iphones totaling more than $42,000. the problem is none of the

phones were activated so the phones are untraceable. the only phones activated were left behind so it seems the suspects knew what they were doing. the store was closed at the time of the thief. the police arrived four hours later. the police are expecting the store to hand the video over to detectives early next week. well, the bart contract dispute is heating up once again. two of the unions are planning to file a lawsuit against the agency. they believe they stripped the

family act without telling them. >> you would think they did their homework in advance rather than put a makeshift agreement that would be more concrete, not a band-aid. >> it's annoying to have to have that uncertainly. >> it's not so much that i am tired of it but it throws the commute into a turmoil. >> i hope it gets resolved soon because it's going to be a has el hassle get other transportation. >> you can get updates on our website. still to come, how much money did we spend on black friday this weekend?

>> well, the numbers are in and overall sales are up according to the retail firm shopper track. it reports that the sales increased thursday and friday by a little bit over 2%. sales on black friday were down around 13% and analysts say that could be because of the shoppers on thanksgiving day. research shows that a lot of people use smart phones and tablets to take care of their shopping list. and cyber monday is expected to be a huge hit again this year. cyber sales last year hit $1.5 billion. experts say this year it could increase to $2 billion. sales in stores reached more than $11 billion for the holiday season in the u.s. well, coming up, we'll have the latest on the twists and

the turns on the bart contract. that's coming up next.

welcome back to kron 4 weekend. you can see it's a little bit hazy out there. we don't have a spare the air day, but a little bit hazy. it's going to be another warm,

beautiful day for us. it's tomorrow that things are going to cool off just a bit. we are going to feel the winds pick up ahead of a system heading our way. we could see sprinkles monday night into tuesday. it's going to cool down over the bay area for this workweek. temperatures are a little bit chillier. 37 degrees heading out the door in santa rosa. mid 40s in the south bay, but take a look at where the south bay is heading. it's going to be a beautiful day. 72 degrees for palo alto. upper 50s for those of you in fremont this afternoon. 70 degrees expected in livermore. upper 670s along the -- 60s along the east bay shore. low 60s at ocean beach and more 70s on the north bay. 70 degrees expected for napa.

for those of you heading to the niners game, it's going to be a beautiful game. temperature ins the mid to upper 60s. it's going to be nice and warm. looking at the satellite radar, we have high pressure that's keeping things mild around here, but we have a system to the north of us. we are not going to get too much moisture with this, it's the cooler air coming in. we are only going to get to the low 50s by midweek, so we have some cool days ahead for us. temperatures dropping below freezing in the inland spots and the temperatures slowly rebounding as we head into next week. marty? >> thank you. well, bart is facing more problems with the possible lawsuit happening this week. let's start with bart. >> okay. >> threats of a lawsuit come tuesday, what could all of this mean for riders? >> well, i think the lawsuit is

the only alternative that the union has at this point. going to a political strike is dangerous. really the only action they have file a lawsuit. it would be an unfair labor practice. they could go back to the bargaining table, but it doesn't mean they debt anything they want out of it. >> it stretches things out, then. >> right, it stretches things out. none of the provisions of the contract are going in effect right now. if the court were to rule that bart did engage in an unfair labor practice and nothing was done about it, down the road, that could lead to a strike, but not right now. >> assuming this plays out and

tuesday the lawsuit is filed, how much time are we talking about for the public to see things happen? >> probably not for several months as the courts tend to wind their way through things slowly. i don't see this being resolved until spring or summer at the earliest. >> of next year? >> yes. >> in the meantime, the bart workers are working under the old contract. >> right. in some ways that's not that bad, but others ways not that good. if bart is found to have engaged in an unfair labor practice, issues could arise. >> but again, it's down the road. >> right, you are going to get through the christmas season. [ laughter ] >> let's talk about the obama website. >> sure. >> word is that 90% of the time it's not going to crash.

as many as 50,000 shoppers can use the site at one time. >> right, and i'm sure at some point in the day there's going to be 50,000 political analysts online at once and that will shut down the system at once. [ laughter ] we are hearing there are more glitches that need to be fixed. it's still bad for insome insome insomniacs because it's down during the night. the question is, though, not so much the website, but for states, how are they doing and i think the measure of that is a better indicator of how it maybe doing. in california, we are slightly

above the levels. in oregon, it's being done by paper which is bizarre especially since oregon has a lot of high-tech there. that's going to be a measure of how the healthcare.org is going through. it's one thing to sign up and get the subsidy, but another to sign up and not get the subsidy. that's going to be another hurdle the obama administration has to deal with. >> there's been so much about the obama care in general, is it too little too late? >> no, i think they have to take a fresh approach looking at how it's going to work and what you are going to get. it has to be a new marketing campaign, a better marketing

campaign, one they haven't had yet. >> the president hasn't been great about touting the campaign. >> no, he came here and talked about immigration. [ laughter ] >> what's to say it's going to be better this time around? >> well, if i were advising him and i am not, i would say to get people out there, a-list hollywood, whoever, people the american public can identify can and talk about logging on and getting the health care insurance going. a lot of people have bad health care insurance. it's like driving a car and someone replaced the air bag with a water wing. that's what these policies are. >> thank you. michael will be back in the next half hour. we'll be right back. i love watching tv outside.

dui arrest over the thanksgiving holiday. reaching 100 was a personal goal, he said at the beginning of the year. >> i am looking for stop sign violations where a person can't stop on the line or runs through it. some things don't seem like that big of a thing but could indicate driving under the influence like blasting their stereo. >> reporter: this pin is from mothers against drunk driving. mcdoogle says his passion comes from the thought that driving while drinking kills. >> you have to think about your family, friends and other people you don't know. think about others. >> that is alicia reed

reporting. and though the officer has reached his goal, he is predicting that by the end of the year he will exceed it. police say they got a call friday about a shooting near highway 37. the victim was hit twice, but survived. the police are on the look out for a second suspect they say is in a small boat. he is listed as a transient. a federal investigation of senator ron calderon could threaten the power structure in the capitol when lawmakers reseen next month. he was accused of accepting bribes.

rocks. they will divert the river into their camp areas. >> reporter: the water ways have been monitored for some 20- odd years. the trend is along the banks where poaching of salmon and trout has been happening. not only that, but they have been using the creek for a public toilet. there is still evidence of the homeless encampments. don't get me wrong, it's still going on. in fact, these two men showed up to fish and it's not the season. >> i could say 94% cleaner compared to the 20-plus years

. welcome back to kron news 4 weekend. this is a beautiful start to what is going to be a beautiful day, waking up to plenty of sunshine this morning. it's going to be another warm day, we are talking more 70s. we have a cool down, tomorrow, more pleasant conditions. we are going to feel the winds picking up tomorrow afternoon ahead of the system moving our way. we are not expecting to see too much moisture with this surgeries it's going to be a cool down for us. temperatures warming up nicely for us out there. 45 degrees if you are heading

out the door in santa rosa. 50 degrees here in san francisco. we are talking a lot of 70s out there. 73 degrees for the valley. 70 degrees in san jose. upper 60s for plesanton. mainly 70s across the board. 72 degrees for santa rosa. 70 degrees the high for napa. for those of you heading to the niners game today, kick off is at 1:05. it's going to be nice and warm out there. we have changes in the forecast. looking at satellite and radar, today, we have high pressure in control that's going to keep things dry and mild for us, but we have a system approaching from the north. we are going to feel the cool air being ushered into the

groups to fight behind enemy lines. north korea wanted to get more attention back to it. it does it on an unfortunate basis with american citizens. it's like that really nasty kid that everyone ignores and if you ignore them long enough, you think they are going to go away and then they burn the house down or in the case of north korea, they fire bombs or take an american citizen. usually that means a high ranking official goes there and makes a personal plea and that enables the north koreans to talk about other things with the americans because other wise they don't get the chance to do it.

it's about regime bolstering. here's in the end, it's about getting their attention and in the end, dennis rodman didn't do it for them. >> maybe we send dennis rodman back.
