>> ktvu, fox two news at five starts now. >> the battle in southern california against the deadly and destructive wildfires continue tonight, as president trump is hours away from visiting to tour the devastation amid his threats to withhold emergency aid for california. good evening. i'm christina rendon, and we start tonight with the fight against those flames and a possible political fight over money. here's where things stand right now. crews in the los angeles area are making progress against the largest of the new fires, the hughes fire that broke out yesterday and quickly exploded to thousands of acres is 24% contained. several smaller fires have broken out in southern california, but for the most part, they've remained small. president trump is set to visit the area tomorrow, and while questions swirl about federal aid, the california legislature approved more than $2 billion to help with the recovery. we have live team coverage for you. bill martin is looking at the conditions firefighters are facing. but first let's go to ktvu. tom vacar live in our newsroom with where the firefight stands now. and, tom, the long term fire

outlook. >> well, these fires will completely redefine preparation and literally firefighting itself in less than 24 hours, the hughes fire consumed over 10,000 acres. though this fire is getting the headlines, the palisades and eaton fires are still burning and dangerous. >> from the palisades to our multiple wildland fires that have occurred in the city and around the city within our region. it's been extremely challenging. >> consider this even a week before the month is over, california has already racked up more than 51,000 acres burned, compared to just four acres by this time last year, and just 457 acres over the five year average. rains expected in la this weekend raised concerns about mudflows, but the national weather service says the rains will not be significant to create dramatic flows or extinguish the fires and terrain. drying santa winds will

not abate until at least the end of february, often continuing into the spring. syracuse university paleoclimatologist professor tripti bhattacharya studies the history of climate changes. >> the santa ana winds, which bring this low humidity, dry, warm air to the coast definitely help exacerbate the fire risk. and that's why there's a warning for fire weather going forward the next couple of weeks. >> doctor daniel swain is a ucla climate scientist who shows in a graphic that the coming rains could be meaningless. >> i think this period will very likely be a period of greatly reduced fire risk. once we get back to the end of the first week in february, though, unless it rains again, we're going to be at the mercy of the winds, because all it will take is one santa ana event to evaporate all of this water. and we'll be right back to where we started. >> usc economist adam rose is a renowned risk analysis expert

for disasters ranging from terrorist attacks to weather and wildfires. >> if you look ahead, while this was unprecedented, this is not necessarily the worst of these types of events that will happen in the future. there are very likely to be even worse conditions. >> and in case you haven't noticed, we really haven't had too much rain here in the golden state northern part. and that can be a very big problem because we've had a couple of years where we had massive rains in december and early january, only to see it fizzle away. in fact, one year it ended up at 37% of normal. back to you. >> and tom. you spent a week down in la when you were there. what did you see or experience about the firefighter response? because there was a lot of criticism about crews not being ready for all of these fires. >> well, i think that there was a lot of pre preparation, there's no question about that. but you have to think about what really happened. it's very much like a meteorite hitting the

ground a big one. you can be prepared for it. but once it hits there's not much you can do about it. and i think that this was a big enough thing, and they weren't exactly sure where the fires were going to start. and by the time they got going in those kinds of winds, you have a massive fire raging in just minutes, not hours, not days, but in minutes. and once that happens, it's very hard in 80, 90 mile an hour winds to do much of anything about it, especially when the aircraft can't fly. >> yeah, not much they could do. all right, tom, thank you for that. well, to get to the conditions firefighters are facing, we'll go over to chief meteorologist bill martin. things getting better. >> things getting much better. and they're getting a break today. i mean, it's still windy. they've done a nice job containing the fire, the hughes fire specifically. but what happens this weekend is kind of awesome. we're going to get ourselves into a situation where there's an opportunity for some scattered showers down there and not, as tom mentioned it, not to the point that it's going to should not cause mudslides. you're hearing about that like it could cause a mudslide and things like that. but right now we're looking at a 10th of an inch to maybe a half inch, which

is a good amount of rain, but it will be awesome on these fire starts. even the other, the palisades and the eaton fire because you want to get it mopped up. and we do see in the models the opportunity for some real rain as we go into february 5th, sixth and seventh. so for even for southern california. so there's a lot of gloom and doom. sure. but there's also this. and that is it's better today. possible rain saturday and then more rain possible as we go into the early first week in february. so hopefully things get better quick. but yeah, it's been a trying period for southern california. >> all right bill, we'll see you in just a bit. president trump is set to make his first trip of this term to visit areas devastated by the wildfires in southern california, amid his threats to withhold aid for california. so far, we don't have a lot of details on his trip, but we do know that the president is asking california congressional members, including democrats, to hold a roundtable in santa monica tomorrow afternoon. this is according to ap sources. the president has threatened to withhold wildfire relief from the state if it doesn't reroute water to the

southern part of the state. governor newsom has repeatedly said that california pumps as much water now as it could under prior trump era policies. at this point, we don't know if the governor will meet with the president during his visit. we have repeatedly asked both the white house and the governor's office, but the two did tour damage together after the camp fire destroyed much of the town of paradise back in 2018, during the president's first term, california legislators approved a relief package today for the los angeles area. the state will spend 2.5 billion to help la recover. this bill was supported by both democrats and republican lawmakers. they also approved 4 million for local governments to streamline approvals for rebuilding homes, and 1 million to support school districts and help them rebuild facilities. the governor signed the aid package this afternoon. >> ongoing operations and disaster recovery. debris removal. work on logistics and traffic management address all the myriad of issues that we're facing in real time, but we want

to get these dollars out in real time, so there's no anxiety and stress associated with that. we'll be talking. >> with state lawmakers said they are hopeful this money will be reimbursed by the federal government. well, a federal judge today temporarily blocked president trump's executive order that seeks to restrict birthright citizenship. the judge called the order blatantly unconstitutional. fox's caroline shively tells us republicans in congress have now introduced a bill to narrow the scope of citizenship, even though the right is enshrined in the constitution. >> obviously, we'll appeal it. >> president donald trump suffering a loss in court thursday as a federal judge in seattle, put a temporary block on his executive order ending birthright citizenship. >> this is a nationwide order, essentially directs the united states government to take no further action in implementing the president's unconstitutional order. >> attorneys general from 22 states have sued to block the president's order to end automatic citizenship for children born in america to illegal immigrants or mothers who are temporary residents. four states argued in federal

court thursday that it's a right protected by the 14th amendment. >> i'd like to remind donald trump that the united states became the most powerful, most prosperous nation on earth, not in spite of immigrants, but because of them. >> house republicans are now entering the fight, introducing a bill similar to the president's order on thursday. >> citizenship should be earned through a shared commitment to the values and laws of our country, not automatically granted by the mere circumstance of birth within a border. >> some legal analysts say taking away birthright citizenship is a long shot. >> the trump administration is really the underdog. the odds are strongly against it prevailing. >> house republicans sponsoring the legislation say they hope the issue reaches the supreme court, whose conservative justices might rule differently than the lower courts. in washington, caroline shively, fox news. >> california is one of the 22 states bringing lawsuits challenging trump's order. attorney general rob bonta today released a statement saying,

quote, despite what he may say to the contrary, the president cannot unilaterally rewrite the constitution. the statement goes on to say, right now, these vague threats are just that empty words on paper. but rest assured, our states will not hesitate to respond if these words become illegal actions. the fight over immigration creating real fear for families, with some keeping their children out of school. coming up at 530. how some bay area districts are trying to reassure families that their children are safe at school. well, today marks the two year anniversary of the deadly half moon bay shooting that killed seven farm workers and shocked the small community. ktvu jana katsuyama joins us live from half moon bay tonight with how the city is honoring the memory of those killed and helping people heal. jenna. [music] >> well, it's really hard to think that two years have already passed, but for those families, some of that pain is still very real. we saw today some people bringing flowers, a candle notes here to the plaza across from city hall, just to try and let the families know

that they are remembered. flowers and a banner placed in the plaza across from half moon bay city hall thursday marked the loss two years ago, when seven farm workers were gunned down by a coworker at the concord and terra california farms. still, painful memories for people in the community. artemio figueroa remembers that day and says the people killed, they had family here. it was a huge shock that was felt here in the community. >> we checked in with one of the daughters that lost both of her parents at one of these farms. >> sandra santillan, with the nonprofit alah, says she called each of the victims families thursday. >> checking in and letting them know that we are with them, thinking of them. >> it wasn't until this tragedy that it really shifted the narrative for the whole co site to say, we need to do something. >> in two years there has been change. according to alyssa's founder, belinda hernandez arriaga. she says they've been providing workers with more mental health services, and there is construction of new

affordable housing, with 28 of the 47 units reserved for the victims families and farm workers. >> there were 19 households displaced from from their living situations. both of the farms also served as residents to some of these families, and so they immediately had to leave the property. >> on thursday, the city also displayed three possible designs for a memorial. getting public input. the design committee includes a survivor of the shooting, and the hope is to create the memorial site at kitty fernandez park, honoring the mexican heritage of two victims and the chinese heritage of five of the victims. >> siempre siempre. >> figueroa said the victims will always be remembered in a very special way. >> i hope that they know that they're loved. their lives are honored. >> and along with the city's display here tonight, ordaz has also arranged for a news conference. conference tomorrow at 11:00 with farm workers and then a candlelight vigil at 6:00

paramedics rushed that victim to the hospital, where they were pronounced dead. oakland police department's homicide division now taking over the investigation. the name of the person who died has not yet been released. we have an update tonight on sunday's deadly multi-car crash in san francisco. ktvu has confirmed with the sheriff's department, the suspect is 66 year old shaolin zen has been released from custody. he was allegedly behind the wheel of the tesla when it hit several cars on the 280 off ramp near sixth and brannan, about two blocks away. the crash killed 27 year old mikhail romanenko and a dog who was in one of the smashed cars. seven other people were hospitalized. a man is dead after the suv he was in crashed through a chain link fence and then landed on the bart tracks near the pittsburg bay point station. it happened off eastbound highway four early this morning. a woman was also in the suv. she survived and was taken to the hospital. police say neither the man nor the woman were wearing seatbelts, and that the man died after he was ejected from the suv. the

crash stopped train service for several hours. new at five fake no parking signs san francisco's municipal transportation agency is monitoring illegal red zones that have been popping up around town. ktvu christien kafton is live in the city's richmond district, where several street corners have been painted. christian. >> yeah, let's show you what we're talking about. take a look here. you can see this legitimate red zone here with the sfmta logo on it. but if you look a little bit farther on, you can see the gray paint there. that gray paint covers up a red zone that somebody had painted back about two more car lengths back. getting rid of a bunch of parking spots. now, neighbors first noticed the red curbs popping up in the last few weeks and say they've been a major inconvenience, taking away about a dozen parking spots. parking in san francisco is notoriously difficult. now it appears someone is making it even harder for some neighbors. photos posted on reddit show that someone has been painting curbs red in the area of balboa street and 18th avenue,

eliminating about a dozen parking spaces in the neighborhood. gabriel armstrong said he noticed a sudden shortage of parking. >> like two weeks ago. we were kind of expecting some sort of painting going on because of the new california law about right hand turn and the 20ft, but this was a lot longer than 20ft, and it didn't look quite right. >> the painting does seem to have coincided with california's new day lighting law aimed at protecting pedestrians. the law makes it illegal to park 20ft from crosswalks. it seems that whoever has painted the curbs in san francisco has taken that to heart. and then some, in some cases extending the red zones way more than the 20ft the law requires and even adding realistic looking sfmta stenciling. it's all left drivers confused. >> yeah, it's weird for sure. it doesn't. like you said, there's not really an end game to it. you know, no one can park there. it doesn't really help the neighborhood out a lot. >> gabby arroyo also noticed the sudden extension of those red zones. >> the first one i noticed was

over there and it was just way bigger than any like i knew they were changing sidewalk laws, so i just thought it was part of that change. >> san francisco's municipal transportation agency released a statement saying that the agency is aware of the curb painting and going on to say, quote, responding to these incidents is stretching our resources thin and causing confusion among residents to comply with the state's daylighting law. we need to be focusing our limited resources where they matter most, which is most immediately in school zones to provide safe crossing to kids. ultimately, neighbors have been left puzzled as to why someone would do this. it does not appear that someone did it to save a parking space for themselves. neighbors say all that it's done is make it harder for everyone looking for parking. >> i've seen people put cones to like, try to save a spot for themselves, but i've never seen actually painting the sidewalk. >> now, at this point, we're not aware of any criminal

investigation into the painting. we did contact sfpd, who told me that so far they have not received any vandalism reports from the area. we're live in san francisco, christien kafton, ktvu, fox two. >> news and christian. did the agency say what people should do if they're confused as to whether or not this is a legitimate space or section where they can or cannot park? >> yeah. so the resource that they're advising people to go to is 311. if you suspect something is unusual, contact 311. and even the app even lets you take a photograph of that location and submit it so you can get some clarity on whether it's a legitimate red spot or not. >> all right. christien kafton in the city tonight. christian. thank you. >> okay. it was another warm day around here today. we've had a bunch of those well above average temperatures as we've gone into this week. today, temperatures right where they were yesterday. even a little warmer. it was 71 in fremont today, 70 in morgan hill. you almost forget that it's january, right? and as we go into the next couple of days, temperatures are going to cool down. and that is sort of the

weather story up north. and that is that this weather system comes in and it drops some cooler air on top of us. instead of being in the mid 60s. we're in the mid 50s or upper 50s. that's saturday and sunday. tomorrow will be mostly low 60s and then saturday. sunday will be noticeably cooler as that low pressure moves in. beautiful shot looking at ocean beach and you can see the panhandle of the park, right? or not the panhandle, you can see the park itself. pardon me. and you can see how glassy it is out there. and if you look off in the distance, awesome. that's point reyes out there. see that? so that's point reyes. and then this is duxbury reef here up in bolinas. just beautiful. yeah, we live in a beautiful spot, and temperatures tomorrow are going to be, like i say, about the same, a little bit cooler. and then temperatures on saturday and sunday. cooler still. so we've got a nice weather pattern. hoping for southern california to get a little bit of rain. and that would occur as we go into saturday afternoon, saturday evening, and maybe a little snow in the mountains as this low gets closer to us. so and that will help, right? a

little bit of rain down there, quarter inch, 10th of an inch. beneficial rain, not enough rain. you're going to have flooding and mudslides even though that's something that they're they're concerned about. but it shouldn't be the case. the models are suggesting a third of an inch to a quarter of an inch. so when i come back, we'll line up the weekend. it's not that far off right now. i'll see you back here. >> bill, thank you. for those aging out in foster care. it can be a difficult time. just finding a place to live can be hard. coming up, a new program that can help, and a horrible case of animal abuse here in northern california. the dozens of horses left to die. and the charges the owner is now facing. a reminder you can now stream ktvu news on your smart tv. you can watch live newscasts and stories on demand available on all streaming platforms. just search for the fox loc app and app and select

legislation that would create protections for communities and environmentally sensitive areas impacted by lithium battery energy storage systems. this follows that huge fire that destroyed most of vistra energy's moss landing storage facility late last week. it forced hundreds of people to evacuate the area and drew intense concern from elected officials over the health and environmental impacts of the fire and the toxic fumes, they say the battery energy safety and accountability act will prevent future energy storage fires. >> ab 303 will establish reasonable limitations on where battery energy storage

education and employment goals. >> we can intervene earlier and give people some stability and an opportunity to really establish a life for themselves and find a sustainable path in our world. >> that track is taking root for new residents such as giselle duran. she plans to take advantage of the option to continue living in the roosevelt apartments at a below market cost, after she's exited the program when she turns 25. it's a way for her to enrich the tapestry of her life and the place she's choosing to call home. >> i feel great, i feel relief, stress no more. i feel like i've outgrown the roommate situation, and once they told me about this apartment complex, how i can have my own studio, i was just so thrilled. they've been so supportive. for me. >> it's been great. better for my kid, nice environment. the people inside are hella welcoming. it's like a community to me.

immigration during his first week in office. as he attempts to crack down on illegal immigration. he announced his administration will now allow federal immigration authorities to conduct raids in what are called sensitive areas, including places of worship and schools. those places used to be off limits until now. in san mateo county, educators have quickly launched an outreach program to make sure that districts, students and parents know their rights. ktvu mark sayer is live in redwood city tonight with a look at what's being done. mark. >> well, christina, this effort covers 23 separate school districts and 180 individual schools here in san mateo county. and educators say the uncertainty over what may or may not happen with immigration

enforcement can cause distractions and impact learning in the classroom. from the outside, it looks to be a normal and quiet day here at sequoyah high school in redwood city. but on social media, in the hallways, and even in some classrooms, the word that immigration raids could potentially take place on campus is being discussed. >> i know he also took away the executive order, which was joe biden put where you couldn't go into schools and churches, right. so i know that he wants to like, come into like the cities and schools. >> tony cervantes says one thing that is unknown how serious is what president trump is saying, or how much of it is intended simply to generate fear. >> yeah, our teacher, our teacher was going like that. we shouldn't be worried about what's happening. and i know he says that. i know a lot of people were scared, but like, we should be, like, together, you know, not super scared. >> to get ahead of the issue. the san mateo county office of education sent out this advisory to all of the school districts in the county. it reads in part,

we maintain a clear position. san mateo county does not, nor will we collaborate with immigration and customs enforcement within the law. the letter was sent with one main purpose. >> so to decrease that level of anxiety and to communicate what our schools and districts are doing. >> marco chavez is deputy superintendent of the san mateo county office of education, and he says the fear of immigration enforcement can directly and negatively impact the learning environment. >> it has many different effects on on children. one the feeling of fear being in a classroom where they could potentially have agents on campus or or more so where having fear that their parents could be deported while they're in school. >> back on campus. students say while there may be fear under the surface, for now, all anyone can do is wait and see what happens on the immigration issue and keep their eyes on social

media. >> yeah, i heard this on tiktok. yeah. >> what are you seeing on tiktok? tell us what you know about it. >> i've just been seeing a lot of, like, news about, like, trump's, like trying to get rid of, like the, like, law that led to, like, have kids here and they get, like, citizenship. >> now the office of education is also reaffirming to all schools and school districts here in the county that no information about students should be given out to ice officials without an actual warrant. the goal here, christina. they want students in the classroom focused on learning, not being concerned about what may happen on immigration. of course, this is all yet to play out, but definitely a lot of talk about it here on campus. >> they don't want students being distracted in your sense with talking to students there, did you did you get the sense that they are afraid? >> well, you know, that's really hard to say. i mean, it's only been three days, and a lot of these students are getting their information from social media. there's a lot of traffic on social media, but no one told us anything about, you know, a

false rumor, for example, like they saw an ice agent on campus here yesterday or whatever. so that level of rumor has not occurred yet, but they're definitely keeping an eye on it and made it clear that social media channels are buzzing with this new issue, potentially a new issue here on campuses. >> all right. mark sayer, live in redwood city. mark thank you. santa cruz county educators there are launching a new initiative meant to improve interactions with people in crisis. the care alert program is a collaboration among law enforcement agencies in the county. one county official said the idea was proposed by the mother of a son who wound up in jail during a mental health crisis. starting today, people can voluntarily register loved ones online, providing information for dispatchers on triggers that might affect their interactions with law enforcement. >> we're asking for potential calming methods, things that can develop a rapport between the responding officers or deputies and the person who is in this program. just things that make that interaction safer for everyone involved smoother, more efficient, and more effective.

>> officials said santa cruz is the first county in the state to implement this program. they say it will help them handle some 3000 calls a year. an historic settlement to tell you about the opioid crisis. california and other states announcing a new bankruptcy settlement with the sackler family and their company, purdue pharma. ktvu alex savage is here now with the details on this latest deal. >> alex and christina, this is a settlement that has been years in the making. attorney general rob bonta, among those accusing the sackler family of helping to manufacture and market opioid products for decades, fueling addiction across the country. purdue pharma, the company owned by the sacklers, manufactured oxycontin, the powerful painkiller at the heart of this agreement. under the deal, they will give up ownership of purdue worth $900 million and pay out up to $6.5 billion in cash. since oxycontin hit the market in 1996, experts say opioids have been linked to hundreds of deaths. thousands. i beg your

pardon? hundreds of thousands of deaths. money will go directly to families of victims, and some will be set aside for future settlements. bonta is one of 15 state attorneys general who were involved in negotiating this agreement. he said our state is likely to receive hundreds of millions of dollars for. >> the harm that purdue pharma and the sackler family have caused through their practices is immeasurable, and the opioid epidemic has given rise to yet another crisis illicit fentanyl. that's why doj is continuing to fight the opioid crisis on two fronts on wall street, not including today's settlement. we've secured over $50 billion through nationwide settlements to hold the big opioid peddlers and their accomplices accountable and bring funding back to our state to help combat this crisis. >> last year, the u.s. supreme court invalidated a previous agreement ruling because it protected members of the sackler family from civil lawsuits over oxycontin. a federal bankruptcy court in new york still has to

decide whether to approve the deal. representatives for the sackler family have not yet commented on the agreement. christina, back to you. >> alex. thank you. well, a woman in san joaquin county has been arrested for animal neglect after dozens of bony and dead horses were found on her property. we'd like to warn you that some of the photos that you see here may be disturbing to some viewers. sheriff's deputies say they found these underfed horses and 27 dead horses on jan johnson's home in clements. four horses and one bull had to be put down due to their extreme neglect. animal services and vets are helping 16 other horses found on her property. investigators are still searching for any other animals due to how many properties johnson owns, and a pit bull is now back with its owner today after an east bay regional park district police officer found this dog in a stolen car at tilden park on sunday. since rocky the dog did not belong to the suspect, sergeant lindsay took that pitbull to the veterinarian veterinary
