( james @ landing ) in the east bay. a woman intentionally backs her car into a family... and it was all caught on camera. police are looking

for the driver this morning. it happened on sunday and security cameras at the the union city walmart parking lot captured it all. police say the woman had just left the store after trying, unsuccessfully, to return some batteries. kron four's ella sogomonian has the story. "ooooow i woulda took flight. only in union city, only in union city." only in union in union city, took flight. only has the story.

"she did not care. she just ran them over like that! the whole family!" "so your first thoughts did this in your opinion look intentional?""i mean there's no way it couldn't have been. she just backed up no disregard. oh my goodness." union city police think so too. they're now looking for a suspect seen in this photo. who was said to have walked into the walmart to return

batteries. but when she was denied left agitated."why would you back up into somebody just because they wouldn't take a return policy?" the footage shows a silver honda accord backing up right into a five people just inches away from the car.ella sogomonian, union city"police say fortunately no one was seriously hurt because it was the shopping car that got the brunt of that hit."the driver stops then keeps going pretty fast - narrowly missing a mom and her 3 year old who ran off. sgt. steve mendez, union city police department"one of the injured was a 3-year-old child some minor scratches and bruises, and the was her mother who also received some scratches they are all considered victims by police.

the bay bridge.. kron four's spencer blake talked to police about why making arrests in these cases can be tricky for law enforcment. (dispatch audio from sunday) "we're following a group of motorcycles, off-road type bikes, quads."that was a call from an officer to dispatchers sunday evening.they were talking about these guys.(nats of dirt bikes)"have units head toward the toll plaza. they're getting on the freeway. there's probably 20." eventually they got onto the bay bridge, and people who caught video of them sent it to kron four.""doughnuts on the freeways, that's stopping traffic.""cutting off vehicles, kicking car doors, there's even some reports of them throwing objects on the freeway."c-h-p followed along on the ground and from the air, but only arrested daisha moran for her involvement. that's in part because chasing large groups like this one could pose a public safety threat.san francisco police say sideshow riders often come in and out of the city. "there's a large group of stairs that they've been riding up and down, doing some tricks."but jurisdiction changes once they get on a bridge or leave town. "we'll have our dispatcher notify chp

even if it's just information only, just to be aware of this happening."additionally, s- f-p-d policy doesn't allow officers to chase suspects unless a felony has been committed.many of the riders sunday had bandanas covering their faces, and helmets - if they wear them - make it almost impossible to identify suspect after the fact.we asked officers whether there was a connection to the case where a man was badly beaten by dirt bikers on highway 101 earlier this month."it's possible that they can be connected to some of the people that we've identified in the past, or they could be new people popping up."that means videos and pictures like these that capture license plates, or other identifying features, may be the best things for law enforcement to get when these sideshows pop up.on the bay bridge, spencer blake, kron four news.

( james ) several horses were stranded during last monght's flooding in san jose. now some of them are being treated at veterinary hospitals. kron four's alecia reid spoke with one owner, whose horse has been in the hospital for a week... and there's no telling when he'll be out. their horse ben is known to have a huge appetite, but he wasn't eating.his owners thought it was stress from what he had just endured.they soon realized it was much more than that.pkgstrapped to an i-v this is what ben looks like these days. last month we showed pictures of him and other horses stranded in their barns, courtesy of our helicopter partnership with a-b-c 7 news. sot -we couldn't give them food or water for a day and half and we were all

sitting here on the banks just helpless.since being rescued, he was taken to the vet, and was treated for a fungal infection on all 4 legs issues that were expected from standing in flood waters for 3 days. sot - we gave him a short course of antibiotics and treated all his legs. he seemed like he was doing fine days passed, but the normally healthy 27 year old arabian remained ill.sot - the vet treated him for cholic which is basically horse upset stomach for ulcers due to the stress. so he had developed ulcers from the stress of being out there and not eating. which is why we figured he stopped eating because it caused him pain to eathe's now been in the hospital for 6 days.sot -he received over 60 liters of iv fluid and b vitaminshis stay has already racked up a 10- thousand dollar bill. and it isn't over just yet.sot - every day we're hoping is the day he gets outstandup the flood assistance center is offering aid to homeowners, but it isn't clear if animals are included. i reached out to

( james ) a state lawmaker from the east bay is pushing all kids in california to get tested for exposure to lead. recent studies have shown that in some part of the bay area... as much as seven percent of kids have elevated levels of lead in their blood. kron four's charles clifford reports. currently in california, only kids who are receiving some sort of government assistance are required to be tested for lead exposure, but under a new bill introduced by assemblyman bill quirk of hayward, all kids between 6 month and 6 years of age would be tested. ab-1316 would change california's health and safety code to require all kids in california to be tested for lead exposure. previous attempts at similar bills have failed because such testing would be expensive and, at the

time, there didn't appear to be a need for it. but, in recent years the dangers of lead exposure have become apparent in places like flint michigan. many spots in california and the bay area have also seen a large number of kids with elevated blood lead levels. larry brooks is with alameda counties healthy homes department which works with families who are dealing with lead exposure. they believe broad testing would help their departments reach more kids who are at risk.brooks also says that even though testing all children might be an expensive, he believes that by helping them avoid long term treatment for problems related to exposure.the bill was introduced into the assembly last month, it is currently in committee. at this point it's unclear what

it would cost to test all kids in california or who would pay for it. in oakland, charles clifford kron 4 news.

( james ) this morning, kron four is taking a look at what's it is like to live with lou gehrig's disease --which is also known as a-l-s. former 49ers great dwight clark announced over the weekend he had been diagnosed. clark is best know for "the catch" - the touchdown grab that sent the niners to the superbowl in 1982.

clark wrote he first experienced symptoms in september 20-15, when he lost strength in his left hand. kron four's mark carpenter spoke with a man in the bay area - living with a-l-s. there is still much to be learned about als, but one thing that is known is that right now- there is no cure. it's a debilitating, painful illness that affects nerves in the brain and spinal cord.... progressively shutting down a patient's ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. the average life expectancy for someone with als is two- to-five years, b ut this afternoon-- i spoke with a man who's been battling the disease for more than a decade. when someone is diagnosed with lou gehrig's disease, the fight usually doesn't last long. but als has found one it's strongest challengers in matt chaney. the 56-year-old has been living with the illness for the last 16-years... and he's learned to adapt. the symptoms first showed up when he lost strength in his right hand... and the loss of function eventually spread to the rest of his upper body... bound to a wheelchair, he relies heavily on the remaining limited abilities of

his feet... using his toes to type on an ipad... the same ipad where he read about dwight clark's diagnosis. through his caregiver, chaney communicates..the difficult struggle of living with als. "it has been the greatest challenge of his life. losing independence is agonizing, same with losing the ability to communicate." there are no definitive causes for als, but clark suspects years of football may have had something to do with it. chaney played at the high school and collegiate levels for 6-years... and while he can't say for sure if the sport was a factor, he feels repeated shots to the head are never beneficial. "he thinks if the brain is rattled, rattled around in the skull, something is bound to go haywire." while life with als has been difficult, chaney's resolve to keep fighting has not been deterred... and his advice for clark-- stay ahead of controlling the symptoms as much as possible. "don't be afraid to ask for help. everyone is waiting to know

how they can help" (james) coming up on the kron four morning news... a raiders star uses his skills to make a dream come true, off the football field. we'll explain what he did. after the break. ( james ) and here's a live look outside... toll plaza
