Dan, kristen, east bay mother called me about a crash that killed her son this year. I did research. Took her story to city hall. And one Council Member jumped on the issue. Sandra martin and her younger boy are preparing for their first christmas without her son robert. Always making every bed else laugh. Just a good kid. The 23yearold drowned in february after his car tumbled into the oakland estuary along doo little drive near the airport. Can you explain to me what went through your mind when you heard the word, that your son had passed . I got numb. I, i i just, i just, actually i just fell to the ground. Right there. My dining room area. I was here by myself. Sandra is not sure why robert veered off the road that rainy morning on his way to work at the dental assistant. She believes a tire may have blown. Take a look at this. Doolittle drive has guardrails for a stretch but where robert died, nothing. The water comes right up to the road. Leaving little margin for error. All i know is that if there is no barriers put up it will continue. I know that, that the winter is coming. The rain is going to be coming. There is definitely going to be more cars in that water. Sandra martins son was not the first or the last to die this year. After driving into the estuary. A taxi driver died at the same spot a month before leaving Oakland International airport.

The park oversees it. Turns out it is cal tran responsibility. Doolittle drive is state route 61. We contacted cal transdirector. So, now, looking into the issue. And, working with the assemblyman. Im sure that we will get, guardrails along the corridor to mack sure we minimize the loss of any future life along the stretch. Cal tran tells me theyre working on a solution for the area. I will stay on top of this and mack sure it gets done. Great job. Thank you. South Bay Charities are asking for a last minute toy donation this weekend to close a deficit in gifts for children.

A talented guys impromptu piano performance take social media by storm. Meet deon fisher and the man who helped him go final. Deon, are you going to let him represent you . Yep. Hey we wont be signing a contract tonight. Hard to believe, thats the owner of the bike. You can hear that hes actually really distraught. Why hes determined to destroy his own property. A woman races into big waves to save something. What do you guys think that is . See the risky rescue to reach a beloved dog. And one of the bucket list boys heads for an epic tinder date to cancun. See if the grand adventure leads to a love convection. This is where they reveal the prank, theyre like, youre cousins some people are naturally talented. They have a gift and if youre blessed enough to be in their presence, you whip out your phone and record all of it. That guy is amazing. The person who posted the video said he was headed to work when he heard deon fisher on the keys. This went down on 16th street in denver. Pianos are sitting out around this time of year. You never expect the person to sit down and just blow you away like this. This guy looks like hes classically trained. You dont just do it. The song itself is a classic carol of the bells. This has gone viral. You go to his Facebook Page folks from all over the place are reaching out to him saying he inspired them. Now that theyve found him what . We found him live right this minute, we have deon yeah youve got folks from the uk and all over the place trying to figure out you who are. Tell us, deon, who are you . I live in denver, colorado. I started playing piano four years ago. I just started in my friends basement. He was playing harry potter and i was like i want to learn how to play something so i looked up on the internet a song that i really like and learned it with index fingers. It was weird but the way that i was playing with my index fingers taught me a different way of feeling the piano. This is crazy, man, we were convinced you were classically trained somewhere. No, i just play by ear, and i also break dance, so i translate the groove from my dancing. I have played carol of the bells but every time i play t its different and improvised. Did you know you were being recorded, and how did they find you . I was on 16th street mall and i did see him after a little while, but usually im just in a zone. Andrew stewart, the one recording the video you guys saw. Oh, hey your agent. Were you guys friends before the video . No, that was completely coincidence that we ran into each other. He just got off the bus, coming from arizona. I was getting off a light rail heading to work. The second i heard deon play, i was like i think ill be late for work. I got to get this kid. How did you find him afterward . After about 100,000 views into this video, someone contacted me and gave me his instagram, and i messaged him on there. How do you feel, knowing that you were able to expose his gift to the world . This is awesome. Like this kid is so talented, and i want to help this kid get bigger. Deon, are you going to let him represent you . Yes. Hey get your cut, you just brokered a deal. Im going to need my share of that. Sometimes you have to give up on the things you love. You see this guy in costa rica, pushes his motorcycle to the ground. Hes kicking it. Hes holding on to his helmet. Apparently the transit officers had a checkpoint in costa rica. He was coming through it, sounds like he didnt have the proper paperwork for his motorcycle. They were going to confiscate so so he thought all right, fine, if youring if to take it, you are going to take a trashed motorcycle. It breaks my heart, especially when you play the audio, you can hear hes distraught. [ speaking in Foreign Language ] [ bleep ] [ bleep ] the officers are just standing there as he breaks the bike bit by bit. At this point even the seats gone. Hes broken the fender, the fairing. Does he feel he was shaken down, they were trying to steal his bike . I think they were going to make it so expensive to even get the bike back he probably has done the math and realized even if i do everything right im probably never going to be able to afford to get the bike back. Thats a drag. Especially when youre trying to live honestly, right . In fact he makes a point of it and asks them, would you prefer that im a criminal or sell drugs . Would that be better . But rules and laws are in place for a reason. You have to have proper documentation for the safety of yourself and others and if you dont have it, what are the police supposed to do . In some latin american countries its really, really difficult to get even the smallest license. Just in so many countries to make bureaucracy work you have to grease the palm. Hes probably tried that and its one big system he cant fight. Run, forrest, run thats what i nicknamed this horse pulling the cart with no driver, no rider. The horse is just making a run for it on the street. Its pretty dangerous. You know how spooked animals guess especially horses. The horse going into a more Commercial Area and thats when our hero jumps into it, out of no, where our hero appears, running, running, trying to catch up. Look at how fast he is. I want to enroll him in the nfl combine. This guy was able to eventually catch up with the cart and just on, get a hold of the reins and they come to a stop. Oh, that poor horse is so scared. Doesnt know whats going on, but good thing that guy got there. Could have been so much worse. In this video another rescue, this is in the uk and that woman is jumping into the water fully clothed. Whats she after, that little speck there. What do you think that is . Its probably her dog or someones dog that shes risking her own life for. She is after her own dog and the rnli, who we are very used to going after animals and catching them in the strong waters they say this woman was putting herself at risk doing this. They say at this point here shes able to grab the dog and shes washed ashore. The dog is more buyant. The dog is able to affect its own rescue but could have been ripped out to sea and carried away by the undertow. Luckily they were able to walk away. This woman could have died trying to save this dog. They say you shouldnt do it but the dog is part of your family. If it runs out there your instinct is to run out and try to help it. Good thing that theyre both okay. If someone had posed the question, why do you water your christmas tree, i would have answered to keep the tree alive. As it would turn out i was wrong. Its to keep u
