four rescues by berkeley firefighters. so far pg & e says it doesn't know what triggered the outage but says it originated in a berkeley tation. a gut wrenching plea today from a mother asking for the public's help. one year ago both of her sons were murdered just about two weeks apart. a third teenager was also killed. one of her sons was only 13. that's him there on the right. his mother says that he was shot more than 20 times. ktvu's allie rasmus in the newsroom. what are authorities telling you about the case. >> reporter: investigators have a good idea of who may be behind these killings. knowing and proving are too different things. bottom line, they need more information. >> living day by day. day by day. >> reporter: every morning, danielle gives herself a tap. something she needs. >> i still have motherly instincts, i honor them every day. if i don't then i will just sit

idle and i will cry and get depressed. >> reporter: tonight her task is returning to longfellow in oakland, the place where one of her sons died. lamar brussard and dereck harris was sitting in their car at this intersection when they were shot and killed. >> he died of a broken heart and bullets in his body. >> reporter: a broken heart, because a -- because two weeks before he was killed, his brother was killed. >> he took her to the bus stop and they killed him. >> reporter: she brought her son's ashes and is asking for help. >> somebody killed my baby. >> it doesn't have to be the

smoking gun but just a piece of the puzzle. >> reporter: the mother of derek harris knows finding that missing peace will be tough. >> when i come through here i know somebody in these houses saw something. but i can't blame them for not wanting to say something. for safety reasons. >> a picture of him smiling, a picture of him when he was a baby and that helps. >> reporter: for now they're two mothers living in grief and waiting for the day in which they get justice. >> it won't bring the boys back but they just can't do that and think we're going to get away with this. >> crime stoppers is offering a reward for information in these killings. >> i remember going to lee's funeral and his brother lamar was here. who would have thought two

weeks later he would have his own funeral. >> reporter: it's really difficult. >> how that mother is going on, is beyond me. thank you. and yesterday evening about this time, we showed you those protesters blocking westbound traffic and that backed up traffic well on to interstate 880 in hayward. ktvu's ken wayne is at the bridge now. looks like those charges will be a slap in the wrist really. >> that's how it's looking right now. the protesters apparently got what they wanted. they shut down the bridge. they stopped traffic. and they got a lot of attention. the prosecutors says it's not likely that they'll pay a very high price for their action. about 100,000 vehicles a day cross the san mateo bridge. you may think that causes a major disruption in one of the busiest traffic arteries could

be a big crime. not really. at worse the 68 people arrested for causing this traffic headache will likely receive small fines. not only did they stop traffic, they caused a number of accidents as vehicles tried to stop to avoid the protesters. >> we had several collisions involving property damage and minor injury as a result of the protest. >> reporter: the highway patrol is still investigating the incident and says more arrests are possible. the chp found one of the vehicles used to let protesters out on the bridge. >> we were able to find that vehicle thanks to the public's help then take those protesters in custody. that vehicle was later impounded. >> reporter: the san mateo county d.a. says that courts often show leniency for protesters. but for multiple offenders that may not be the case.

>> we may not be able to get to emergencies. that's what we're worried about. >> reporter: students had mixed reactions. >> i do support the movement. and i think it's in keeping with the spirit of martin luther king jr. day. >> my heart goes out to people who were frustrated by the commute. >> reporter: the highway patrol says it's still putting together its cases on the 58 other protesters who were arrested and will forward those cases to the d.a. and gasia, all of those people could be in court for an arraignment at the end of january. >> we'll see what happens. thank you ken. new developments tonight involving that mysterious gray goo that's killing bird along the shoreline and the east bay. the area where those birds are being found is expanding. sick birds were discovered today in foster city. they hadn 't been found there before. sick and dead bird have already been found in alameda, san leandro and hayward. ktvu's noelle walker is live

with the effort to try to figure out what this gray goo is. >> reporter: today the department of animal and wildlife started doing necropsies at their lab in san leandro. what they're trying to do is figure out what this goo is. once they if i can -- once they figure out what it is, then they will work on trapping down the source. bath time runs day and night at international bird rescue. >> use a lot of soap to get that out. >> reporter: it's a spa treatment, from wash to rinse cycle trying to get the sticky goo off the bird. >> the bird who are heavily contaminated it's hard to work it off of their feathers. >> it's very much an emergency. >> reporter: meaning the number

of words in this makeshift ward continues to grow. >> on one hand i would love to know what the product is. on the other, we kind of need to just move the animals through and worry about the words. >> they're dehydrated. you know some of them are quite thin. and they are not one more. not happy about being here. >> reporter: california if -- california fish and wildlife are starting the necropsies today trying to figure out what is behind the contamination. we followed them as they netted birds, now three have been found on the other side of the bay in foster city. they all end up here. >> you want to make sure the guys aren't freezing and dying and you want to make sure these guys right-hand turn heating up. >> they're not very appreciative of our efforts. >> reporter: they will fly the coop in a couple of weeks. >> they do not say thank you when they leave. >> reporter: that volunteer vet we talked to is feeding the birds says she hopes once they're released some where

that they will forget all about this traumatic experience. she likened it to the alien abduction theory of wildlife rehab. >> even though these birds have died. how come the state isn't paying for any of the rescue operations? >> yeah, frank that's an interesting point. because if this had been an oil spill, then the state would have stepped in and they would have run things. they would have charged the responsible party and all these volunteers kind of would have stepped in line along with the state. instead, because it's not an oil spill, and that is a good thing. but because it's not an oil spill, there is no defined way to handle this. that means the volunteer organization stepped in firsthand and now they're spending tens of thousands of dollars and that does not include the volunteer time because those people aren't paid to try and cope with all of this. >> just one last question here. the one that everyone is curious about. i know they don't know what this goo is. but do they have any guesses? >> no, they don't.

and that's what is so puzzling to a lot of people who deal with this. it truly is a mystery. the only thing they know for certain is that it is not oil. and we mentioned earlier that it was found on the other side of the bay. well, that doesn't mean that whatever it is has drifted over to the peninsula side of the bay. it's possible that the three birds that were found over there were well enough to be able to fly over there to where they thought it was safer. >> all right, noell walker in san leandro tonight. noelle, thank you. closing argumenting were heard today in a corruption casing involving two police officers. shay and radick are accused of stealing property in raids. >> they're out there, they're doing their best with what they have. they're not trying to violate anybody's rights but mistakes can be made and that doesn't mean a federal crime has been committed. >> reporter: you will remember last month the federal jury

convicted officers edmond robles and ferminger of wire fraud and conspiracy as part of that same case. the highly publicized case of britney manerd and her decision to end her life in oregon may lead to changes in california. manerd was termly ill with brain cancer and ended uptaking her life last november -- was terminally ill with brain cancer. about 750 people have used the law to end their lives. that's about one in every 500 deaths in that state. most of the people had cancer and the average age was 71. in less than an hour from now, president obama will deliver his sixth state of the union address and it'll be the first time he's done so with republicans controlling both the house and the senate.

for the nearly $225 million package. another deeply divided issue, normalizing relations with cuba and the president is expected to touch upon terrorism threats at home and abroad. but in an unconventional approach to the state of union, this year president obama began rolling out his economic policies weeks ago. leaving little surprises for this address. >> a tone he strikes, and the issues he highlights will tell us a lot about what to expect in his presidency's final act. >> reporter: the first lady's box will be a mix of people the president is speaking to. they will include students, and even a fallen soldier's wife. >> and our coverage will begin at six clock. busted for enjoying a burger. this man explains why he has a

running short. those with a cough prescription may not be able to turn to their pharmacy for relief. it's the same story at the near by cvs and rite aid. >> there's been a more than normal increased demand for cough syrup and cough suppressant type stuff. >> reporter: companies only make a certain amount of cough syrup a year, and it's hard to catch up when short. it doesn't help the centers for disease control, reports flu shots are not as effective this season. at the smaller hospital pharmacy the pharmacist there says the supplier is giving up how much it can have only allowing this bottle. >> i think a lot of people want to suppress a cough and they feel this prescription medication is the best thing. >> reporter: dr. berka isn't

surprised about the shortage. she says they've had similar problems with tamiflu. in her opinion says that home remedies may be more helpful. >> you may be comfortful for a few days -- you may be comfortable for a few days but these remedies our grandmas used to sell us on may do the trick. >> reporter: when i asked these pharmacies when they will get another order of cough syrup, they all said the same thing, they're not sure when. >> back to grandma, thank you. and the colts got suspicious after this interception by jackson. he ended up giving the ball to a member of the equipment staff and they noticed it wasn't fully inflated. an under inflated ball would be
