So it may only be the nine. Okay, were watching a plane doing a fireso we have fire ret down. Weve got water drops. Can you talk a little bit more about the resources being used . Well, theres six dozers out here right now. We have six crews, six fire crews. Theres 15 engines, four water tenders, and theyre all working in harmony with the five air tankers. All right. All right, bruce lang from cal fire, we appreciate the information. We started watching this just after it broke out at 2 00 and, ama, the eyeball view here, we dont see active flames any more, so it looks like theyre getting a handle on this thing. I want to pinpoint the location for you. The fire is near Lake Berryessa and its forced the closure of highway 128 between markley cove and rag canyon road. People on the south side of the highway are being told that they need to get out, and well keep an eye on this fire and bring you any developments as they happen. But it does look like, as we mentioned, that progress is being made. Now to santa rosa, and when First Responders rushed to a car accident last month, they found father oscar diaz stuck in the car with a broken hip. And emts also found 18,000 in cash. Diaz said the money was his salary, but the church says thats just not true. In fact, the church says the money belonged to them. There was a lot more where it came from, in fact. This story getting a lot of traction on our website. Abc7 News ReporterWayne Freedman is live in Sonoma County where he spoke with the parishioners there. Wayne. Reporter well, this is an interesting story. Its a Catholic Church that has had more credibility issues than it wants in recent years. Now this, apparently money from a collection plate going into a priests pocket and its been going on, they say, for 15 years. Awkward moments this morning outside resurrection parish in santa rosa. It sa peers that their beloved father oscar diaz had some secrets. Do you trust him . Yes. I just know hes a good man and my thoughts are is, like a lot of us, were just not perfect. Reporter the church had been concerned about father oscar since last june when he suffered serious injuries in an auto accident on river road. When police discovered bags of cash in the car, that concern became suspicion. Yesterday Bishop Robert had bad news about father oscar for the congregation. At least 95,000 stolen, quote, its now absolutely clear from solid evidence that hes been systematically stealing from parishes and parishioners for the past 15 years. What he has done constitutes a grave crime even in the church. While the church took the case to the santa rosa police, there does not appear to be enough evidence to prosecute. Its hard to explain, you know . To hear that, you know . For me, money is not so important. Its the relationship with people and the trust that might be broken. Reporter as of now, the diocese has removed father oscar from his priestly duties, probably forever. Meantime, members of resurrection parish have more to pray for than usual this monday. Their faith in god remains unshaken. In father oscar diaz, still to be determined. If the father were here now, what would you say to him . Id hug him. And let that speak for itself. Reporter so the next question is will the Sonoma CountyDistrict Attorney prosecute on this . As of this afternoon, the answer is no. They havent even seen the case. That would come from the santa rosa police, and they say they dont have enough evidence to send it along. The church would need to invest more money to get more evidence, to make a case of it. Right now the church does not seem inclined to do so. In santa rosa, Wayne Freedman, abc7 news. Wayne, thank you. Now take a look at this video. Watch the bottom lefthand corner closely. It shows a man coming up and using a broom to smash the window of a car right there in San Franciscos chinatown before he runs off. Now, that happened yesterday and it comes as Community Members held a meeting this morning to talk about the recent crime. They are looking for solutions amid highprofile crimes where they say the suspects are targeting seniors and members of the chinese american community. Abc7 news anchor dion lim has the story. Reporter more than 200 Community Members packed the Chinatown Benevolent Association headquarters. Fed up after this violent attack last week where one of their leaders and another senior were crossing the street in the middle of the day and brutally attacked and knocked to the ground for a wrist watch. This guy, outrageous behavior must be stopped. Reporter one of the victims face bruised and hesitant to go on camera, telling me today he feels apprehensive being out in chinatown. Supervisor aaron peskin says it took more than 30 m m s. F. P. D. To arrive. We have extended the hours of our foot beat officers so theres higher visibility. Reporter more security cameras will be installed in the next six weeks. In a neighborhood with nearly 1,000 merchants, this response couldnt have happened at a better time, citing frequent shoplifting and other neighborhood concerns. I have not had any outreach from the Police Captain at this point. Hopefully well bridge that gap and get to know each other better. Reporter this marks the 8th Violent Crime in the Chinese Community city wide just this year. But the impact of violence has been felt across San Francisco, most notably with the brutal beating of 89yearold in visitacion valley. Today tears from one of the many chinatown residents, a victim of a crime herself, desperately looking for change. That was heart breaking to watch. Now, since this most recent Violent Crime, the Benevolent Association here in chinatown has ponied up a whopping 20,000 to act as a reward leading to the arrest of the people who did this most recent crime. We should also point out that some of the money will also be allotted to anyone who is a witness and is willing to testify. In San Franciscos chinatown, im dion lim, abc7 news. Thank you, dion.

He says investigators are still trying to pinpoint where on the tracks the car was hit, but he says if the car was hit in the Railroad Crossing, once the crossing arms come down, its not ease y for a train to stop. It will take anywhere from half to three quarters of a mile to stop depending how fast theyre going. Coming to the station probably going slower. It just looked very gruesome, the whole thing was very sad. Reporter justin todd owns the neert by car Service Repair shop. He said its rare to hear of accidents in this intersection. And he adds its heavily patrolled by police. You see the police, they make a big stink about people crossing the tracks if theyre walking across, not in the reporter crosswalk . Crosswalk, yeah.

Doctors calling him a walking miracle. Wow. That is just insane. It is. And that story, it doesnt e end there. After the accident, overton packed up his gear then walked three miles to the nearest train station in order to get to the hospital. He had a minor fracture in the vertebrae in his lower back.
