threats. i was reluctant to say i'm doing to give in to those people. but our chamber only holds 225 people and we're right next to the police department. >> we don't know who's still in town. there are people who are still focused on violence and we don't want that to happen. >> reporter: protesters shut down 880 twice as hundreds got on the freeway to stop traffic. they arrested 200 people. some that won't be getting any time soon because they are being held on $50,000 bail. they allegedly committed such crimes as assaulting police officers. city council member jesse erragin gave me this print out that indicates the mayor had no unilateral right to cancel the meeting. and he opposes the move. they have a meeting scheduledded tomorrow night that will go on as planned and

he says they will welcome all these extra people. back to you frank. >> reporter: john are there any protesters out there now and are you getting any indication that canceling the council meeting will cause any problems. >> reporter: the old city hall is on the other side of the block on martin luther king way. right now there are no protesters there but we are expecting there will be some a bit later. i'm sorry what was the second part of your question. >> is there any indication that the protest will stop because the city council meeting has been cancelled or will the protesters still going to be out there if. >> reporter: there's expected to be a protest tonight. it's not exactly certain what the cancellation will do. the cancellation and heavy rain that we're expecting tomorrow night could quail these protests a little bit and return the city to normal. >> all right, well we'll be out

there all night. thank you. john sasaki in berkeley. the reverend jesse jackson talked about recent police killings and protests that followed today. jackson spoke to students at the emiliano zapata school. it's important that the message behind the protest isn't lost and he pushed for peaceful demonstrations. >> i was hoping that the protests here would remain massive, discipline, focused and unviolent. >> i'm proud of people are rising up but i'm not proud that they're destroying the city because of it. >> reporter: jackson went on to say that much of the discrimination based on minorities is not only --

rob roth joins us now. >> reporter: we're in downtown berkeley, behind me you can see some of the plywood boards where windows used to be. but some leaders are saying this destruction has to stop. scenes of protesters tieing up freeways. unexpecting drivers stopped for hours. that destruction has turned many off to that message. a group of mostly black pastors said enough is enough. >> we are tired of other people. determining their agenda who have used violent means to make it appear that they are concerned about the loss of lives. >> we realize that a life is more valuable than property.

but the property is innocent people who have nothing to do with the loss of life. >> reporter: brown marched for civil rights with martin luther king in the 1960s and says that marks no resemblence of what has happened. >> we didn't just join to raise hell, but we wanted to bring our brothers and sisters forward. >> reporter: that change includes revising the grand jury system and better sensitivity training for police officers. >> we don't intent to paint every policeman with the same brush. but every department in the country has paint on it. >> reporter: still some people we spoke with said that perhaps the rowdy nature of the recent

protests including spilling on to the freeways has its take. >> i don't mind delays, if it's for that cause. >> reporter: reverend brown also announced michael brown sr. the father will be coming to the third baptist church in san francisco on sunday. frank. >> rob, thank you very much. rob roth in berkeley tonight. we are also hearing about a pregnant woman who was stuck in the back up during those protests as she was going into labor. this is a picture of her. her name is adriana torrez. that's her new baby with her. she wasn't the only person suffering a medical emergency while stuck in that traffic and that story is coming up at 5:30. a former uber driver is going to court in the death of a 6-year-old girl. today the mother of that young girl who died is speaking out about this case. our david stevenson has been following the story since it happened and david that little girl's mother said the ride

share company should face charges as well. >> gasia, she did. the mother of 6-year-old sofia lui who was killed around september 21st says she's waited a long sometime for this day but is disappointed that uber isn't facing charges as well. the collision happened on this intersection. 6-year-old sofia liu, her mother and younger brother were crossing the light. lui was killed and her mother and brother seriously injured. >> she's a happy girl, you know. >> reporter: surveillance video first obtained by ktvu showed that collision. prosecutors are now charging musafar with vehicle manslaughter. the investigation focused on whether he was operating and distracted by the uber. >> he kept looking at the

phone. he kept doing it driving. >> reporter: george gascon says there wasn't evidence to support a felony charge. >> the elements that we have available to us will support the level of prosecution that we're doing. >> reporter: musafar's attorney says his client was driving carefully. >> it was a dark light and a busy night. he simply did not see the liu family. >> even though i see him i cannot forgive him. i'm so mad at him. >> reporter: liu's mother says she will attend the arraignment tomorrow. >> i'm glad the driver in charge, but what about uber. they're responsible. >> reporter: the liu family is suing uber and musafar arguing that he was working for them at the time of the collision even though he was without a fare. they also say that the app is a distraction to drivers and posing a danger. the ride share company did not respond to our requests for comments this afternoon frank and gasia.

>> david, i know after the death of the little girl, uber expanded its insurance policy to include drivers whether or not they have a rider in the car with them. if they're logged on they're now covered by that insurance. >> reporter: that's right. they have made some moves in the wake of this accident and other accidents across the country. the state department of public utilities has closely followed that. there are other organizations that say that's not enough and there needs to be more done. >> thank you, david. uber faces charges in its home city. the da announced the civil consumer protection lawsuit against uber today. amongst the allegations is that uber operating illegally at

airports and is not testing its app for accuracy in calculating customer fares. >> uber has refused to comply with laws that protect consumers from fraud. >> gascon says they will agree to make changes and pay a fine. side car is still under investigation. the senate intelligence committee today released a highly anticipated report on how terror suspects were tortured by the cia in the wake of the september 11th terrorist attacks. mike emanuel tells us the documents show most of the enhanced interrogation techniques were ineffective. >> the cia mislead the white house, congress and the american public about interrogation techniques use on terror suspects according to a long held senate intelligence

committee report. >> it's been very difficult. but i believe documentation and the findings inclusions will make clearer how this program was morally legally and administratively misguided. >> reporter: five years in the making, the report exposes a brutal look at the cia and tactics used after the september 11 attack. they found they are often mishandled and led to no useful intelligence. >> torture produces more misleading information than actionable intelligence. >> reporter: records show that some detainees were not allowed to sleep for weeks and told they were going to be killed in their sleep. many of the republicans in the

senate intelligence committee viewed the report as flawed and put out their own document criticizing senator feinstein's study. >> sometimes good people make mistakes. we have corrected the problem, we have interrogation techniques now that i think can protect the nation and live within our values. >> ahead of the reports released the obama administration stepped up security at u.s. facilities abroad to protect against any retaliatory strikes. on capitol hill, mike emanuel, fox news. what's your reaction to the report and do you agree with the findings, doctor. >> i agree with some of the findings. i do believe it's true that torture is an elegitimate way of getting information.

it's a problem we're still living with today. i also think that the whole question of whether or not torture works is the wrong question. the real question is are we willing to live as a country that values absolute safety above everything else that matters to us. >> dr. gordon that actually leads to a follow up question. here. when you look at these terrorists they don't play by any rules, they have no problem flying planes into buildings. if they're not playing by rules why should we play by rules? >> that's such a good question. the reason is we're not terrorists. and if we allow ourselves to stoop to the level of the terrorists then there's really nothing to choose between us. the big prize is that we remain a country that is governed by laws not by fear. a country that is governed by human values not by terror. we let the terrorists win when we descend to their level. >> what's to stop us from saying, okay we won't do any

torture here in the united states, but we're going to send these prisoners to other countries where they do allow torture. >> another good question. and in fact, there isn't anything to stop us right now. when president obama issued his executive order in january of 2009, he ended the so called enhanced interrogation techniques. but he did not end what is called extraordinary rendition, sending people some where else for interrogation. and in fact, the u.n. committee against torture is very concerned about the standard that the u.s. applies when we still, which we still do send people to other countries for interrogation. and it was part of their report issued last week about ways that the u.s. is not complying with our duties under the convection of torture. >> thank you for speaking with

us tonight. while protesters stopped traffic, there was a woman who went into labor. and she wasn't the only one. a bay area school program that is so successful students all across the world read about it in textbooks. what makes this fish hatchery program so remarkable. >> a powerful storm is making its way to the bay area. i'm laying out where and when a flash flood watch will be in effect. subway. eat fresh.

river flooding or things like that. but there will be inconveniences. downed trees, there will be a high wind warning in effect thursday morning. maybe 8-inches of rain in the santa cruz mountains. this is over a couple of rains. and up in the russian river basin the they could see several inches too. if there was something behind it like a big storm behind it then you would have to start worrying. looks like this thing is not one and done but close to that. it's a big one and it has a lot of moisture streaming in. you can see the track of it now. and it's trajectory. i always look at it as a fire hose. it's the jet stream. but if you're watching your car, and this thing is jet streaming right at us, what's happening now is high clouds are coming in ahead of this lower level moisture. we're not seeing rain yet. we'll probably start to see showers when the atmosphere gets real real wet all the way

to the surface. spinning the radars right now. you're not seeing really anything. some green showing up there. i suspect that's not a -- that's a false return there in san jose. could be a little bit of drizzle though. i wouldn't be surprised. but the idea being tomorrow night this time i'll be showing you significant rain occurring around point arena at this time. by about 10:00 tomorrow night, we're looking at heavy rain potentially in santa rosa now. the new models suggest a little heavier rain earlier in the evening. the main hit still, late, well actually early thursday morning through mid-morning. so thursday morning right. so the 8:00, 9:00, 10:00 something like that. this is the forecast for tomorrow. you see the drizzle showing up. this is wednesday afternoon. tomorrow not that dissimilar from today except the clouds. and this thing starts to shove into the marina. we're going to see winds down to sea level maybe 40, 50, maybe 60 miles per hour. system rolls in, it brings us quite a bit of rain.

one to 4-inches for urban areas. that's a big deal because of how we say in the urban areas you're talking about you know, no run off. not easily getting into the creeks. arizona is set up very well for drainage. but when you get to a town like san jose and you get two inches of water in a few hours you're going to be ponding and minor flooding. i suspect this is what's going to be going on thursday morning. i would try to avoid that commute. it's not going to be the early morning commute. it's going to be the mid- morning commute. going into labor because she is stuck in traffic while protesters are blocking the freeway. how this new mom and her baby are doing tonight. and we learned she wasn't the only person who needed help. what emergency recordings reveal about the response. now to julie haener who's in the newsroom with what we're

rate payers bills. one homeowner says he's watched rates go up for years despite his own conservation. >> they need so much revenue too cover their operations and bonds and therefor if we use less water, there's less revenue to them and therefor they need to increase the rates that's been happening for the last few years. >> reporter: if east bay mudd does end up raising prizes that would show up on january 2nd. a pregnant woman stuck in traffic after protesters shut down interstate 80 in both directions last night. and she wasn't the only medical emergency. what emergency recordings are revealing about their response. difficult and dirty work. how crews are getting the bay area ready for the big storm that's ahead. it may not be one of california's biggest fish hatcheries but it's certainly one of its most important because it is run completely by north bay high school students. ♪

involve inside the perimeter, the hot zone. where protesters or potential threat of violence is located. >> reporter: now the chief says every patient in every one of those calls was transported safely. but as you might imagine, it did take longer. he says the delays range from five to 25 minutes. gasia,. >> thankful that mom and baby and stroke patient are okay tonight. thank you claudine. we've been talking about the heavy rain in the bay area. wáe could also get -- we could always get winds of up to 60 miles per hour and all of that could cause potential problems. cara liu is live with how officials are working around that area. >> reporter: crews are keeping our roads safe from flooding and other issues. at a storm drain in fremont, crews have spent two days in a

row pumping up mud, debris and crash. the goal to keep the drainage system free and clear so when the rain comes it'll work the way it's designed. >> as you can see, this is not the most glamorous work that there is. even with equipment like this. this is still really hard work. hard and dirty work. but it's something that has to be done to make sure the system functions properly when we do have a big storm. >> reporter: on the side of 580 near high street in oakland, workers cleared styrofoam cups and debris out of a ditch. in orinda, pg & e crews were cutting branches from a downed pine tree. this cyclist says he took care of things around his home earlier and is happy to see pg & e trying to minimize power outages. >> all over, i went to diablo and there were a lot of people out cleaning out gutters and storm drains and things. >> reporter: if you do see a

the supreme court today ruled that amazon will not be required to pay warehouse workers for extra time spent undergoing security checks at the end of their shifts.

workers filling orders wanted compensation saying they waited 25 minutes to clear security before going home. today the court said the workers don't have to be compensated for that extra time because those screenings are not related to their primary job duties. a high school program long underway has been so successful it's even been highlighted in japanese textbooks. we go to petaluma where that course has gone from textbook to real life. >> you created life and you got to put so much dedication, so much work and time. >> reporter: as fish hatcheries go. it's not california's biggest but it's the biggest in the

we're getting a new look at just how intense the battle of the bay was for the players last weekend. that was collin kaepernick and seal moore getting into it at halftime. after the exchange you just saw and heard, moore called kaepernick a few choice words. it all started when moore sacked kaepernick. of course the raiders went on to win the game. seal moore posted this photo of himself and kaepernick on

instagram. you can see the caption, there's a difference between boys and men. talk about fighting words. i spoke with tmz. we talked about harvey's take on it all. >> we got it on camera and it was right back at you for collin. because collin came out and started talking smack on seal. and said i'm coming for you. and seal just comes right back and i can't tell you what he said. what seal said to collin because it was really filthy. but it was also, he was good in his word because the raiders ended up winning 24-13. and then moore instagrammed. remember oakland does not have a great word and they still beat san francisco handily. and morris instagramed afterthe game there's a difference between boys and men chump.

so this turned into an incident. somebody held kaepernick back. >> this happened during halftime. the game was tied at that point. do you think what had to do with what was happening on the field or themselves and their egos. >> i think it was all about the game. because it was tied i think that's why, again collin started it by saying, i'm coming for you. and that just set morris off. that's when things got crazy. oakland had the fire power. >> so far collin kaepernick hasn 't had anything to say about that video or instagram picture. a baby boy born on a flight shortly after take off. >> i heard a baby crying, like a gurgling sound, and i thought

a baby had too much milk or something. and i thought, there's no babies on this flight. and i turned around and a woman said, she just gave birth. >> reporter: the flight was headed to phoenix. it was diverted to los angeles so the mom and baby could be checked out. we're told they're doing just fine. what are the chances that both a doctor and nurse would be on board. >> i know late in my term, i wouldn't even cross a bridge. let's go to bill martin. i like that guy's double take. like what there is a baby. >> i am thinking about myself in that situation. it wouldn't be pretty. it would be uncomfortable to bring a baby on the airplane. we have some rain coming up. and it's not going to impact your weekend just your thursday. this system starts to click on inland. it's a nice looking system. we mentioned it last night.

rain in mendecino. as we get into midnight it starts raining toward san rafael. down to bodega bay and steinson beach. here's what's interesting to note. look at this line right here. that doesn't look like much. watch it intensify. that tells you a lot. this thing really puts itself together and at 7:00 a.m. maybe 6:30, 7:00 a.m. at least the way it goes now. slams into the north bay and you will know this line that's like a squall line in the midwest. i mean there's going to be big wind. extremely heavy rain. you can get thunder and lightning from something like this. the rainfall rates within this band are going to be massive. but here's the thing to notice. not a bunch in front of it. not a bunch behind it. you shouldn't see major river flooding because behind it you're going to get little breaks right. here's what we're tracking. 7:00a.m. here we are at 9:00 a.m. now it's into the heart of the

bay area redwood city and out toward oakland. it's weakening a little bit but it's still hammering. it's 9:00 a.m. and boom. we're getting the brunt of this. it's coming right through the area. we're getting the brunt of this wind event. there's the breaks. okay, so we're going to time this out. that times looks pretty accurate so far. because a couple of models have been sticking to that. it's going to be a heavy deal. a lot of rain, it's going to be boom, boom, boom but there's not a lot going on. there's three of those lined up and then head for the hills. that little line, that's a squall. that's what you might see in a major thunderstorms or tornadic event in the midwest. the amount of rain that's going to come out. >> so pronounced too. >> it's going to go off. at least according to the models. we'll be timing it out for you. changes a little bit each day.
