there was one earlier with sfpd. there are measures you are seeing visible around here. increased officers around here. a comforting site for travelers here. for those who live closer to the carnage, the real action transcends temporary security measures. on their way back home to germany, expecting alerts all over the country and intensified security. measures that will last for many months, the way it has been following november paris attacks. >> interesting thing with what happened is we had also alarms going on especially during new year's eve. they had to close the munich railroad station because there were threats over there. >> reporter: for this woman, today's trip with her son is to visit family outside paris where she grew up. she also remembers the scare in november but fear is the last thing she or anyone else can afford to turn to. >> though the news is sad we should keep moving on. >> i don't know what you can do about security. it will always happen sometime because these crazy guys find something. >> reporter: for europeans and european-americans there's

. >> this tells you again that sfpd can shoot 59 bullets and get away with it. >> reporter: supporters say they'll continue to stand by the family and other families who have lost relatives in this manner. the family could appeal to a higher court. we don't know what their plans are, but a spokesperson said, of course understandably, they are very distraught. live in san francisco, leanne melendez, "abc7 news." >> thank you. >>> still ahead on "abc7 news" at 4:00, new revelations today about the murder of a brisbane woman. what police learned about her and her husband, who killed himself after her body was found. >>> plus, san francisco already raised the smoking age to 21. now california is one step closer to doing the same thing. >>> and a battle in the >>> new details today in the bizarre murder case of a brisbane woman. the body of shelly titchener was found next month. >> shortly after she was identified, her husband paul killed himself. melanie woodrow has more. >> reporter: this is the search warrant for three phones, two cell phones belonging to paul titchener and one belonging

it also tows vehicles for sfpd and investigations. so the tow volume has declined dramatically over the term of the current agreement. the number of tows have declined approximately 41% since 2005. that's 30,000 less when the contract began. and this is sort of a slide to show you the impact. so the mta has -- we believe that getting the car towed is absolutely no fun at all, but to sort of mitigate that we have been doing public outreach and doing things on the website that help people know when you know the tow restrictions are. we have new tow signs. we have parking meters that display restrictions. we see data to apps that help the public know when their car can be towed and we're also developing online maps so we can identify tow way zones and other restrictions. so through this process this tow program is a cost recovery program. the cost of the program is approximately 24.$1 million. of that 12.3 is for the tow contractor. 9.1 million is sfmta cost and 2.7 is the cost of renting two facilities. however, through this process we'

and i'm very disappointed that the outcome of sfpd. >> reporter: kenneth malvar gave a brief statement this afternoon. he is wheelchair-bound suffering from back and leg injuries after the november crash. malvar was driving the double- decker city sightseeing bus when he says he pumped the brakes and the accelerator several times to try to get them to work correctly but they were nonresponsive. >> so now it's going to be left upon me that it was driver error. but i was there, like i said, and there was a mechanical problem and in spite of that they said i didn't know my gas pedal and brake pedal. to me, that's absurd. >> reporter: city sightseeing will have no punishment from police. that's up to the puc in a separate investigation. and our reporting has raised over issues. record show city sightseeing have revamped used buses from other states and at least one had a history of mechanical problems, the one that crashed. that bus also was not registered with the cpuc as required a so-called ghost bus. >> the fact that there are potentially hundreds of so- called ghost buses that are not
