Who ive never seen at the camp. No, no, none of us knew who disappeared immediately after. Were not sure who this person is. Members of the group, students supporting israel, say the man who had his flag stolen is alon. They told us in a statement. The act forcefully pulled alon into the violent mob where he was beaten by two men, punched in the back of the neck and in the face several times. The event was nothing short of terrifying and has definitely resulted in physical and mental distress. A representative from the encampment says the actions last night do not reflect their intentions. All the campers are very, very much understanding of the goals and are very focused on what were here for and its not to engage with agitators or people who are trying to distract us from our goal. State senator scott wiener says the violence on campuses has to stop. We have a long and storied history in california of student protests, and i support their right to protest, its also so important for our College Campuses to be safe places for everyone. Its been over a week since the encampment started at uc berkeley, and the first reported violence was thursday night. Day by day, more tents pop up. The protesters say they will stay until the uc system divest from israel. We live in a democracy, and so in theory, we should be able to determine what and where our tax dollars go, and we feel really guilty that we havent really been able to uphold that, uc berkeley said in a statement. University rules leave no room for physical conflict, harassment or discrimination. Everyone on our campus affiliate and nonaffiliate is expected to adhere to those rules. The protesters say they wont leave when the semester ends unless the university concedes. Our goal is for this university to divest in the same way that they to divest from israel, in the same way that they divested from south africa. Now, we did reach out to the Jewish Student Group for an on camera interview. Were waiting to hear back from them. Meanwhile, the propalestinian demonstrators say theyve had talks with the university about their demands and they say those talks are ongoing. But for now, reporting live at uc berkeley. Ryan curry, abc seven news. All right, ryan, thank you. Meanwhile, police were called in to clear encampments on campuses all across the country. Students at portland state, they barricaded themselves inside a library. 90 protesters were arrested at dartmouth. Violent clashes in wisconsin injured police and protesters. And in los angeles, 209 arrested as police in the chp crackdown. Reporter josh haskell, from our sister station in los angeles, has the latest after propalestinian protesters on uclas campus refused to leave the encampment almost one week since it was established, three Law Enforcement agencies moved in wednesday night, conduct an operation that involved hundreds of officers, lasted hours and resulted in 209 arrests. Classes were being blocked off and it was hard to get around campus, but like, i just feel like with the cost of it happening, its like people got hurt, people got arrested, like it just wasnt, you know what i mean . There could have been a better way to go about it. I didnt think that the university was going to meet any of the protesters. Demand and i and they said they werent going to leave until those demands were met. And so i think the only option was to have the Police Remove them, because even though i think a lot of people were protesting peacefully, ultimately their encampment was inciting a lot of violence on both sides. Chp officers moved in, dismantling the exterior wall of the encampment, made of pieces of plywood and metal barriers. As flashbangs went off, protesters wore helmets, gas masks and use umbrellas as shields in a dramatic effort to hold on to the mini city they had constructed, but eventually they were taken into custody. Shortly after it was cleared, ucla employees began cleaning royce quad. I dont know if another camera will happen, but definitely more protesting will happen. Like they will come back and i think it will be like more of a force. Honestly at whats left of the encampment, we met this ucla staff member dedicated to documenting what happened on campus and how he believes the university mishandled the situation goes against you know what . You know the university is supposed to stand for you know, protecting the students. And so, you know, were archiving these materials as a reminder of what happened, but also, you know, its a its a special time, not just at ucla but across the nation and really the world where youre seeing a lot of these universities, you know, students rise up university always wants to celebrate. Like, you know, ucla is very diverse. You know, the good chapters of uo. But theres a dark chapter in ucla history, and its important to document that as well. Josh haskell, abc seven news. Now you can follow our coverage of the College Campus protests here in the bay area, as well as nationwide on our website. Abc seven news. Com. Artificial intelligence is supposed to be part of the future of San Francisco, but 1 billion company is heading out and part of the reason some of the citys welldocumented problems. Abc seven News Reporter tim johns following the story for us, joining us live in the newsroom. Tim. Yeah, larry. Kristin. The company ceo, created a whole thread in which he laid out his decision to move its headquarters down to foster city. He said the move was inspired by what foster city has to offer just as much as it was by the problems he thinks San Francisco has. Its the industry thats supposed to help revive San Francisco with the Major Players in Artificial Intelligence all moving downtown, but on monday, replit, an ai Company Valued at over 1 billion, announced it was leaving the city. Despite the relocation, replit says its not going far. There simply moving down the peninsula to foster city. Its Just One Company is not a trend. Thats what im saying. Ahmed benaissa is the tech expert at san jose state university. He says the move doesnt change the fact that San Francisco remains the undisputed ai capital, not just here in the bay area, but around the world. Its not clear how many employees replit has, but bonafe tells me hed be worried if Bigger Companies like openai decided to leave. They called him anchor. You know, companies where everybody is around them. But if you have companies who just starting or companies who are new in the field, we have, you know, we have thousands of ais companies. That view was also shared by jim wunderman, the president and ceo of the bay area council. Wunderman says given that the bay areas economy functions largely as one unit, San Francisco will still benefit from replit being nearby. The fact that a company is in San Francisco itself, or in Silicon Valley or san jose, or in san mateo county, you know, right in the middle of it all. Each has its own distinct advantages, but the location of a Company Benefits those outside that area. But leaving San Francisco is only part of the story, according to the companys ceo, who laid out his reasoning in a thread on x, saying in part, the why were leaving is boring, sad, and predictable crime, dysfunction, etc. So instead, let me tell you why we chose foster city. The rest of his post describes what he finds attractive about the peninsula city, namely its safe environment, ideal location and High Standard of living descriptors. Foster city leaders say theyre happy to receive, all in the hopes that more Companies May choose to follow in its footsteps. We are a prime location for offices, and we have that that tech hub, biotech hub, all of that comingling with with beautiful residential and recreational amenities. The city has to provide now, replit ceo says in the future, he hopes when people hear the word replit, they associate it with foster city, similar to how google is associated with Mountain View and apple is associated with cupertino in the newsroom.

Abc seven news south bay reporter Dustin Dorsey explains how you can see these cars live for yourself this weekend. Finishing touches are being made on two High Performance race cars at san jose state. Each year, spartan racing creates brand new, fully electric formula c and baja style vehicles, and what makes them so unique is this entire program is 100 run by students, organized by students, and all the work is done by students. All the welding, fabrication and driving and the racing too. We do it all from the ground up, every gear, every wire. Its a labor of love by a group of 100 sdsu engineering students. Balancing these projects on top of schoolwork is no easy task, but the cars take what the students learn in the classroom and make it tangible. Its unlike anything else you get to do in college, and thats kind of the value of c and baja and formula like is youre really getting these real world experiences and thats why the rest of industry finds these programs so valuable. And thats why we find them so valuable as well. But its not just for show.

Meanwhile, the formula teams june event is focused on static and Dynamic Events against some of the most prestigious schools in the country. Last years model was the fastest ev theyve created, going from 0 to 60 in less than three seconds. This years i would say its a refined version of this car. I dont i cant quantify how many tenths or seconds were expecting to gain from the vehicle. However, we know it will be faster simply due to build quality, battery life and loss of weight. Now, this didnt happen overnight. Its months of late nights and hours of work, and its led to more than just a completed car. As you learn to manage this and communicate this with people on a deeper level than you could with a project member in a classroom, for example, you just get a lot closer. Im just really excited for people to show off the hard work that theyve been putting in all year, and you can see these cars live for yourself.

It was just an ordinary morning for dog walker Terry Williams when he woke up to take his own three rottweilers out for a walk around 6 00, april 26th. What his father found on the doorstep of their alamo square home shook terry to the core and he said, hey, you got a package down here, son . A plastic bag with terrys address and a foreboding message scrawled in marker. Then it had gangster thug, and then it had some other negative stuff about black people on there. The contents inside.

Sfpd tell me the incident is being investigated as a hate crime. Terry is sharing his story not just to represent his industry as a minority dog walker. Im trying to get more people of my color to do it, but to encourage others to speak out and help end the hate in the neighborhood he loves and calls home. This got to stop. My people dont speak up. They always keep everything tucked in. You got to speak up. Dont let this. You cant let this go by. The more stuff we let go by, the more they feel entitled to do stuff to us. So this is my way of stepping up and standing up and saying, no, im not letting this happen no more. The only thing is just make me want to stay and fight harder. Im not going nowhere in San Francisco. Dion lim, abc seven news. Cal trans electrification project is on track to Begin Service in september.

I know the chronicles of these pregnancies quite intimately because theyre all my own, and my family lived and survived each one of them, including my miscarriage. Arizona would then keep in place a 2022 law permitting abortions up to 15 weeks.

It says that our children are gifts from the lord. This repeal, marking the latest flashpoint on abortion rights in the u. S. Former president trump, doubling down on his comments to time magazine, where he said he wouldnt stand in the way.

Another person writing tipping is out of control. You can see here the payment device did say that the tip is calculated after tax and discounts. I dont know, these machines are everywhere now and theres this pressure to you know, you got to hit the button. Whatever you you know pick your pick your price there jr thoughts thoughts. I its totally out of control and i hope im not looked at as the cheap guy here, but im willing to tip somebody if i sit and eat at a restaurant. But the idea that if im taking food to go, that im expected to tip as well, i just dont understand. And it happens in Retail Stores now, too. Kristen my problem with that is youre adding the tip as a percentage after youve already added the tax. So you know, thats already adding 10. So then that that thats not how it should be calculated. All right. Moving on. State senator scott wiener is pushing to slow down speeders. This week, wiener posted on his bill to keep cars from going ten Miles Per Hour over the speed limit is advancing in the legislature. He wants the Technology Required on cars sold or made in california, so that you literally cant go more than ten miles an hour over the comments. Follow the announcement of a federal plan to require pedestrian Collision Avoidance systems on new cars. Oh, larry, thats. Oh, i have a lot of thoughts. I need to be able to go ten miles faster. What if kristins chasing me . Then i have to be able to get away. What am i going to do . But i dont need scott. I love you, but we dont. I dont need you on this, okay . Yes. Lets lets reduce speeding. Everybody slow down. But i dont need government. Like, as kristin mentioned in the break, quite extensively, by the way. We have enough laws. How about enforcing the ones we have . Sandia. Yeah. No, im with you, larry. I mean, i its very important that people do follow the speed limit to avoid any sort of accidents or, you know, collisions with pedestrians. But, i mean, do we really need to dictate the exact mileage above . I mean, i dont know. Come on. Going far. And how do you how do you enforce that . Yeah. If youre if youre requiring companies to put this product in their car, that means its going to cost them more. That means its going to cost us more. And im against that. Can we just enforce the laws we already have . Lets just do that. Agree. Agree yes, an efforts underway to limit the amount of homework assigned to students in california. A bill introduced yesterday would encourage School Districts to make homework optional or not graded. My kids would love that. The intent is to reduce stress on students. Local School Boards would be required to create homework policies with input from parents, teachers, and students. This is not a new topic. This has been going on for a long time, but it seems to ebb and flow and, well, kristen, youre up. Oh wait, i dont want to eat up all the time. Sandy has got three kids, so lets lets start with sandy. What do you think . Okay, so i think they do need to reduce some of the homework. I will say we wont name School Districts one school district. Actually had kids having to do projects and tests during spring break. Really . Its not really a break. Come on. Yeah, thats a little excessive. Yeah, i look, im not for putting so much homework on the kids. Homework is supposed to be for practice and learning, reinforcing what you learned in the classroom. I will just say think about this as a balance. If you take away the grading of homeworks, does that mean all your grades are based on tests . Because that could cause more pressure and anxiety too, right . Not everybody does well taking tests, right . Thats true. Okay its tasty thursday. Woohoo and today is also taco thursday.

We cant wait to get to anser hassan with a story. The next time you see margo, shell running across the bridge. It will probably be the bay bridge. I really excited. Eight year old margo has signed up for sundays bay bridge Half Marathon. At 13 miles, it will be her longest race ever. At age six, she ran her first five k. I first started, a5k, and then i got a little more interested and i went up. Margo trains and runs with her dad in portland, where they live. Hell be running with her on sunday. Ive never been a competitive runner, margo, on the other hand, is very competitive. And, or it started out as being pretty. Extrinsically motivated. That extra motivation hes talking about is a trip to target for each race she finishes. If she crosses the finish line on sunday, its two toys from target. This time a stuffed dog and a grooming set for it. John says the goal is a ten minute mile pace, and to finish just under two hours and 30 minutes, which is about the 60th percentile. Still a great time for an eight year old, i think pushing the boundaries of what is possible. And, i think when seeing how well she performed at her last 15 k and how much gas she had in the tank and that, you know, the Half Marathons and only an extra 3. 8 miles, you know, we figured we might as might as well go for it. Margo is on a vegan diet. They train to a lot of music, but they say they are not swifties. As for why she runs, its pretty simple. Its really calming and peaceful, thats kind of it. Her friends, like most eight year olds, are not into Long Distance running, but they arent surprised about her big race. Theyre not very surprised because ive told them a lot about my running, so theyre not very surprised and they think youre crazy. A little bit. The best ones always are in San Francisco, anser hassan abc7 news. Okay, so happy running. Its awesome. By ten, shell be running double marathons. Yes. Yeah. Well. Well, yeah.
