news... which takes us to fremont. we have heard an officer has shot a suspect.( catherine ) this happened right near a busy shopping center. kron 4's spencer blake just got to the scene... spencer what have you learned?

( steve ) lunch time is the best time of day for many students... but for others, it can be a

humiliating and shaming experience. a troubling trend called "lunch shaming" is on the rise. ( catherine ) when a student doesn't have enough lunch money, some schools are taking away a child's hot food, and replacing it with a cold sandwich, or sometimes, no food at all. but one state is taking action martin savidge with our partners at c-n-n has the story. 13 year old addison re doesn't talk about that day at lunch at school.but her dad does... don re / student's father: "what a kick in the face that would be for a kid, you know?" he's talking about what he says a cafeteria worker did after realizing addison owed money on her meal account. don re / student's father: "so the woman took her tray of food from her and set it aside and offered her a cold cheese sandwich and a white milk."don re says his daughter was humiliated, by her school, in front of everyone.don re / student's father: "it's borderline bullying in my opinion."actually, it's called "lunch shaming" and happens in more schools than parents realize. (standup) martin savidge "according to the

school nutrition association, 76% of school districts across america have students with school lunch debt." even though the average school lunch costs about 2 and a half dollars...administrators say schools don't have the funds to absorb the debt... so in many districts when a student can't afford their lunch they get an "alternate meal" which can be very different.critics say it only turns school lunch into a lesson in ridicule... michael padilla / (d) new mexico senate:"so it's very clear, what your home life is like to the other kids..." martin savidge: "you know who the poor kids are."michael padilla / (d) new mexico senate: "that's right..."and it gets worse... online you can find posted photos of children bearing what look like school ink stamps on their arms and hands demanding payment... they are literally branded. martin savidge:"how does this happen in america today in a school?" michael padilla / (d) new mexico senate: "well it is, it's shocking that this is even a thing that's still going on..." for michael padilla it's personal. growing up he knew poverty and hunger... now a state senator, he's spearheaded legislation making new mexico the first state in the country to ban any kind of lunch shaming.martin savidge: "how did you feel when it passed?"michael padilla / (d) new mexico senate: "once in a while in the legislative process we get something right and this is one we got right."

so padilla says 21 other states have reached out to him to see what they can do...and an identical bill has been introduced into congress... which could bring a federal law.so that no student should ever again have to face a choice between hunger or shame. martin savidge, cnn, albuquerque, new mexico in alameada, two people are dead after a gmc truck collided with a mini van here on park street. witnesses say the truck was speeding when it clipped the mini van. seven people were inside the gmc truck. one woman was pernounced dead at the scene... one man later died at the hospital... five others are listed in critical condition. the woman driving the mini van was also rushed to the hospital she is

practice... but is he any closer to coaching in the nba finals?... the the giants and nationals get into a nasty brawl late in their game at at&t park... mark carpenter has the video and reaction... plus all the sports... coming up

this afternoon's matchup with the nationals was supposed to be an opportunity for the giants to climb in the standings... and make a statement against one of the top teams in the league. but, instead, the game gave us some memorial day mayhem. --let's head to the ballpark--some military families being honored in the pregame festivities. --top 2nd--the nationals struck first... ryan zimmerman....hits it well, solo homer to left. that's his 14th home run of the year and he had a good day, going 3-for-4. washington up 1-nothing. --in the 8th, that's when the real action

started. hunter strickland on the mound...bryce harper at the plate. strickland plunks harper square in the hip... and it's on. harper charges the mound and both guys are ready to throw down. the dugouts are emptied....and we got a good old fashioned baseball fight. lasted for about 5-minutes before both sides were separated ... and strickland had to practically get carried off the field. --when everyone calmed down, we got back to the game. and the fight didn't wake up the giants offense.. bottom 8th-- bases loaded, but justin ruggiano flys out meekly to left. nationals go on to win 3-nothing. after the game, hunter strickland spoke to reporters and said he didn't mean to hit harper on purpose. reporter: what kicks in when you see him coming after you with a helmet in his hand like that?"it's go time. you gotta protect yourself and stand your own

ground obviously, i left the ball over the plate a couple of times with him and he's taken advantage of that, so just want to go a bit inside and obviously it got a little bit too far.""so you had two guys that probably don't care for each other very much. so it's unfortunate, it really is and it was a pretty good pile. so we are probably looking at someone on either side, didn't get hurt in that situation." reporter: you were kind of hanging back there a little bit, what was it? you were just gonna let them sort it out? what was, how were you approaching that?"i mean after it happened i kind of saw harper point and then next thing you know he's going out after him and there's some big guys tumbling around on the ground. you see mike morse is about as big as they come and he was getting knocked around like a pinball, so it'll be a little dangerous to get in there sometimes." and today's brawl was the culmination of tension that's been boiling for the last three years. harper and strickland have some history together and it all starts from the 2014 playoffs. nlds game 1....harper homers off of strickland and hunter not too pleased. stares him down as he circles the

bases. then, in that same series, game 4...harper tees off on him again... and while on his trot, he's shouting and showing up hunter. now again-- strickland claims this wasn't on purpose. meanwhile, the a's in cleveland...and their game wasn't as eventful. -- we head to ohio-- you can see the patriotism across all of sports today. --this afternoon was rough for the green and gold... daniel mengden...a forgetful day on the mound. gave up three homers in the first four innings. one to austin jackson and then back-to-back jacks to carlos santana and edwin encarnacio. mengden...left after 3-and-a third...surrending 5-earned runs and 7-hits. --the tribe led 5-zip after four, but the a's would make it a 2-run game. in the 9th-- 2 on for trevor plouffe, but he strikes out to end it. indians take this one 5-3. turning now to the warriors-- golden state seems to be running out of guys to run the team. acting head coach mike brown missed practice today because

of the flu, so in his absence, regular head coach steve kerr was back in charge. but no, that doesn't mean he is back full-time or returning to the sidelines anytime soon. kerr has been attending practices consistently for the last several weeks, so him being there is nothing new. last week-- general manager bob myers said kerr is not ready to coach, and as we are three days away from game 1, kerr re-iterated he will not be on the bench for game 1. "yeh, i'd like to tell you i'm ready, but i'm not ready to coach yet.i'm still feeling a lot of effects of what i've got going on. but with mike being out, i'll take his spot, after he took my spot, media wise. i told the team the good news is the team's really healthy, the bad news is the coaching staff is dropping like flies, so hopefully mike will be back tomorrow. mike's ben amazing. it's an awkward situation for anybody. this is so unique. it's just weird because one the one hand mike has to coach the team as he sees fit. i'm taking park in practices, helping with the messaging, taking part in meetings. but i'm not on the sidelines during games, so he has to make those decisions as if it was his team, but he's also taking my advice and counsul behind the scenes. there seems to be a theme when i'm out. the team is like 108 and 2 (laughter)"

no easy way to transition to this next story-- another event in the decline of tiger woods. the 14-time major winner...arrest ed this morning in jupiter, florida for driving under the influence. woods was taken into custory at around 3-am... and then released about 8-hours later. he released a statement this afternoon saying alcohol wasn't a factor...and his arrest was due to a quote 'unexpected reaction' to prescription medication. the 41-year-old recently had back surgery and is out for

the entire 2017 season. finally, a warriors fan expresses his love for the team from the top of the world. nima tenji sherpa...climbed mount everest....and snapped this picture of him and his steph curry jersey. apparently-- this is his 7th-time reaching the summit. ( catherine ) thanks mark....still ahead.....help wanted. google and u-c berkeley are looking for volunteers... the unique and bold project you can help pull off this summer.
