Campus near eureka. Ktvu christian captain joins us now live from San Francisco. And christian, you were able to speak with a local reporter in Northern California who was detained by police while covering the events on the Cal Poly Humboldt campus last night. Yes, we will hear from her ie here on the San Francisco State University campus. This is the site of where the latest protest has sprung up. This one here has grown considerably since we were here. Just 24 hours ago. At this point, still no signs of Law Enforcement here on the San Francisco state campus. Meanwhile as you said overnight, police broke up another protest in humboldt, and now were hearing from those on scene as it happened. Were hearing, put her in flex. Give me a flex. Give me a flex. What the flex. Put your phone in your pocket. Put your phone in your pocket, then put your hands behind your back. Wait. Im pressed. Put your hands up. All right. Well keep tv. Reporter adele ruiz was recording at cal state polytechnic university, humboldt, as Police Detained her along with demonstrators at the university as they moved in to clear protesters from siemens hall on campus. Ruiz was detained, photographed and transported from the scene by local Law Enforcement, losing one of the phones she was using to broadcast and record what was unfolding in front of her. That second phone actually ended up being swept away, as well as when they were, moving my hands towards behind my back. It slipped out of my pocket and i couldnt get it. Obviously, the officers didnt get it. So there is a piece of news equipment out there at Cal Poly Humboldt right now. Ruiz was on scene as authorities moved in on the demonstrators who had taken over siemens hall more than a week ago as part of their protest against the war in gaza and part of their effort to get the school to disclose and divest from companies doing business with israelssembly, vandalism and assault on a police officer. Now humboldt county did also request mutual aid, help up and down the state of california. San Francisco Police sent Ten Police Officers to assist in that operation overnight, the Sheriffs Office also sending four deputies to assist in that as well, saying that San Francisco has expertise with mass protests and provides a unique skill set to help in situations like this. The local Law Enforcement says they respond to mutual aid calls like this because they know at some point in time, they too will need to put out that call for help. And they say this is a reciprocal relationship. By responding now to humboldt when they need aid here in San Francisco, they say that they know they can reach out to humboldt and ask for help. Then were live in San Francisco on the San Francisco State University campus. Christien kafton, ktvu, fox two news, christian. Thank you. Meantime, dozens of protesters at Columbia University in new york broke into an occupied hamilton hall. There on campus, witnesses witness video shows the takeover early this morning, columbia said those students now face expulsion in response to the nationwide campus protests, House Speaker mike johnson said he plans to bring an antisemitism awareness bill to the house floor this week. It could pave the way for protesters to Face Criminal Charges and allow lawmakers to cut federal funding to universities that dont control antisemitic behavior. This is out of control. Weve got to weve got to protect the innocent students there. And we got to say clearly, without any equivocation that antisemitism is wrong, smashing windows with hammers and taking over University Buildings is not free speech. It is lawlessness. Columbia University Officials say that those participating in the encampment there, on the main law are also being suspended. All right. We turn now to our weather here in the bay area, and it is looking good as we give you this beautiful live shot here of the oakland estuary in the San Francisco skyline. Another gorgeous spring day across the bay area. Nice warm temperatures and mark is tracking what is ahead here in the coming days. Mark, were dot want to talk about it yet. Yeah, well preview it a little bit alex. Yeah, yeah. Well in the meantime well enjoy this nice this warm pattern of visiting here, visiting us here in the bay area for today, tomorrow and into thursday.

Really going up. Well have more on that with your full update coming up in just a few minutes. Okay, mark. Thank you. Now to the emotional final farewell for a fallen idaho sheriffs deputy who grew up here in the east bay. Tobin boelter was remembered today for his sacrifice at his home church in walnut creek, ktvu Jana Katsuyama joining us now live there, where that service is being seen virtually. Janna it is heather and im going to step away so you can see the north creek church behind me. The police cars that are here, many people from Law Enforcement came to attend this virtual live stream of the ceremony that is going on right now up in idaho, and i think we have a look at that. You can take a look at this live picture of the ceremony in idaho. Most of tobin Walters Family went there to speak to the crowd that gathered there. Hundreds filled the room to pay tribute to this deputy, who was from the walnut creek area, but who was a sheriffs deputy up there at ada county. Back here in walnut creek, they had a viewing of the ceremo at his home congregation of north creek church. And his grandmother, who was not able to make the trip up there, was here today to see the ceremony, surrounded by family, surrounded by the church community, and surrounded by members of both the Pleasant Hill Police Department and the Walnut Creek Department Police Department, where tobin boelter had served before he went up to idaho. We did get a chance to talk with the executive pastor who was here presiding, and this is what he had to say. We wanted to have an opportunity to bring the Community Together here at our church. Those who are not able to go up to idaho to be in person, be able to watch here together in solidarity, to support the family, the belcher family. Tobin and abby grew up here. They were married here. Both of their families still attend here. And so this has been very impactful. Tobin. Abby, we also talked to some of his long time friends and members of the church. They are here inside hundreds of people were here to see this Live Stream Service and many of them said that they knew him. Some some of them, since he was just a small child and they really wanted to come to show their support for the family. Well have a little more of what they had to say. Coming up at 5 00. Heather. Yeah, obviously the bay area feeling this loss and hurting too, but but also so proud Jana Katsuyama live there for us in walnut creek. Gianna. Thank you. Well, todays Service Comes as North Carolina grieves the for Law Enforcement officers there killed while serving a search warrant in charlotte. Investigators trying to determine if there was more than one shooter. Theyre questioning a woman and a 17 Year Old Girl who were inside that home yesterday during this three hour ordeal. The gunman was shot and killed. A total of eight officers were hit, four wounded. They four of the wounded died at the hospital. Two were from the North Carolina department of adult correction and two were charlotte mecklenburg, Police Officers. He had a high powered automatic rifle that he was able to start open fire on. Our officers and then, as others responded to try to save the officers that were down, they were also hit with gunfire as well. President biden, releasing a statement saying, quote, they are heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice, rushing into harms way to protect us. We mourn for them and their loved ones, and we pray for the recoveries of the courageous officers who were wounded. Coming up here on the for this afternoon, concerns about the use of sedatives on people being arrested by police, a new investigative report examines dozens of incustody deaths and explores the risks of medics giving those injections to help calm people who are combative. Up next, a live conversation with one of the reporters involved in this project and President Trump fined thousands of the gag order in his hush money case. What the judge said could happen for further violations an investigation into police restraint. A new investigative report taking an indepth look at the number of people dying in Police Custody after being given sedatives. Those drugs administered by paramedics, are meant to calm people who are agitated or combative during an arrest. The Associated Press collaborate with pbs frontline and the Howard Center of Investigative Journalism to dig into the data, and they found between 2012 and 2021, more than 1000 people nationwide died following police restraint, and nearly 10 of those who died were sedated by injection. Of those, 94 deaths nationwide, seven of them happened right here in the bay area. So for more, we are joined this afternoon live by carla cay johnson, a medical journalist with the Associated Press and one of the reporters who was involved in this investigation. Thank you. So much, carla, for being here. So, as we all know, sedatives are not meant to kill. But your investigation found there is a risk to using them. So. So what are the dangers . Yes. Well, all sedatives have side effects. Midazolam, which is used in california, can cause breathing to slow. Ketamine is also used in other jurisdictions , and that can affect breathing in the heart. So if a person is already intoxicated, has already been shocked by a taser, for example, is being held down by police, is already having trouble breathing. You can see where injecting a sedative drug might be the final straw for that person. Can you talk about what sort of protocols are in place for administering these sedatives . When a person is in Police Custody . And i think one of the questions a lot of people have been wondering is who is ultimately making the final call to administer those sedatives . Is it the Police Officers or is it the paramedics . Thats a really good question. And, paramedic techs are supposed to make the final call, often in the body cam video that we viewed, we hear Police Suggesting that the person needs a sedative. Can you bring the sedative up, but paramedics are supposed to be able to make that final call. Of course, these situations are chaotic, and sometimes they may feel pressure from police to administer a sedative thats inappropriate in this situation, and we all know its dangerous out there, and its the social safety net phrase, police are more frequently dealing with people who have Mental Health disorders, who are using stimulants like cocaine or meth, and theyre handling these emergencies with often very little training from their departments on whats safe, so all these factors combine to make administering sedatives in these situations as risky. And throughout your investigative work, did you find that the use of sedatives is, in fact increasing, we monitored this over a ten year period, and we did feel that from the people that we talked to, that the use of sedatives has increased as the, protocols for excited delirium, a disputed medical condition, became more widely used by ems agencies across the country, as you know, in california last year, the state became the first state to bar the excited delirium as a valid medical diagnosis, including as a cause of death and autopsies. So, we found that the use of sedatives and the label excitedn hand. And many of these protocols that Emergency Medical Services are using specify that a person with excited delirium, is a candidate for a sedative drug. You spoke a moment ago about, you know, the sort of the variety of factors that come into play during some of these arrests that that ultimately lead to deaths. Many of the people involved have taken drugs or maybe alcohol. Officers can be using force to try to restrain them here with all of those factors at play, how difficult can it be to determine the role that a sedative has played in a persons death . It is a very difficult, especially for us as journalists, to figure that out, it its up to medical examiners to do an official ruling about what is the cause and manner of death and we did find that, excited delirium was blamed for many of these deaths. And also, methamphetamine and cocaine were blamed by medical examiners when they made their official rulings, we had medical experts review some of the cases for us. And, some of them said that the sedatives either played a contributing role or they, could have caused the death for some of these people. But it is very complicated because so many things are happening and its hard to tell in retrospect. What was the final straw . Yeah, obviously you went back and you looked at all of these cases, but looking forward, might there be another alternative to try to prevent Violent Police incidents with someone who is combative, like you were describing who who, you know, may may be reacting that way because of drugs or a psychotic episode. Well, training is huge here, there is training for deescalating these situations. Some jurisdictions, like austin, texas, are, Training Special paramedics who specialize in Mental Health disorders. And when somebody calls 911 with this kind of Behavioral Health emergency, that kind of person, that kind of expert is dispatched to that situation rather than police right away, so thats one thing that can happen. And there are paramedics who are training and retraining on these issues. The death of Elijah Mcclain in colorado. People may be familiar with two paramedics there were convicted in his death for administering ketamine. That got the attention of people in the ems field. So there are reformers now, people like eric yeager in new hampshire, whos a paramedic educator, and hes training paramedics in his state and also speaking to National Groups about the need for more caution and precision and monitoring these patients and not just using sedatives in every situation. Yes, certainly a lot more scrutiny on this widespread practice here. Really important reporting. We appreciate you coming on to share more about it. Carla k johnson with the Associated Press. Thank you. Thanks for having me. All right. Former President Trump back in a manhattan courtroom today after being slapped with a 9,000 fine for violating a gag order. Foxs Connor Hansen has more now on the criminal proceedings in the hush money case against the former president. Court proceedings resumed for the week, with judge juan marchands decision to fine trump 9,000 for nine different truth social posts, violating his gag order. The judge warned the former president he could be jailed if it continues. Trump is not allowed to publicly comment on witnesses and jurors. Its absolutely outrageous the idea that President Trump should be sent to rikers over essentially reposting things that other people had already said about how unfair his cases are. The jury heard from several witnesses, starting with gary ferro, a banker for trumps former attorney michael cohen, who set up an account and a 130,000 transfer at the center of the trial. Ferro says he didnt know what it was for, but stopped doing business with cohen after the Stormy Daniels hush money story came out. Lawyers also questioned an attorney who represented both Stormy Daniels and karen mcdougal, helping sell mcdougals affair story about trump to the Parent Company of the national enquirer. Some say theyre still waiting to see a smoking gun connecting trump. We still did not get that direct link connecting trump to this payment. That would put him squarely in the crosshairs of criminal jeopardy. While President Biden campaigns in delaware tuesday, trump is impatient. Hell be in the midwest on his day off from court wednesday. Im going to sit in a freezing cold ice box for eight hours, nine hours or so. They took me off the campaign trail. The former president s son, eric trump, was in the courtroom tuesday. Trial will pick back up on thursday in new york. Connor hansen, ktvu, fox two news. All right, right here on the floor. Were going to be taking a closer look at a bay Area Organization and its dozens of projects aiding conservation and Wildlife Protection. Weve got the details on how a e being done by a long standing berkeley nonprofit. Yeah, we talked with the ceo of Earth Island Institute, a powerhouse in the world of Environmental Activism spanning conservation, Wildlife Protection and Climate Change solutions and a lot more. What i guess id like to see more of is more synergies between our projects, more opportunities to engage in impactful litigation that furthers the work, and more stories to tell about what were doing. So lets talk lets talk about litigation. You were general counsel for several years. Things like microplastics, things like abusive behaviors toward the environment. But why why does legal need to be such a big part of the environmental fight . Well, we the only way that were going to be able to effectively protect the environment now and Going Forward is by having strong, enforceable laws that ensure accountability and that corporations are not able to extract and pollute without a check, but really, its just one piece of a set of strategies for effective environmental action. Its legal. Its communicate oceans, its engagement, its doing the work on the ground. Its being part of communities all together is what actually makes us really effective. And your organization sort of works as that older, established sibling that someone on the ground who has a great idea, lets say, in concord, could say , oh, you, tell me how that partnership works. Yes. So what we do is called fiscal sponsorship. And what it is, is a way to reduce the barriers to operating as a nonprofit organization, which have become quite high and quite complicated and really, we want the experts on the ground to be able to focus on the work on the ground and let us handle the administrative and professional services that are necessary to operate an organization. So this is grant writing. This is kind of all the minutia that the person whos, like, raring to go on the ground doesnt want to have to deal with. Yes, its paperwork filing, its air, its financial accounting. Its legal. Yeah. Yeah. So we provide all of that to our to our network of activists, and it allows them to be effective and it allows it allows us as a whole to actually be more impactful than just dozens of separate projects operating individually. So do people and groups apply to you for the help, or do you look out to the horizon and say, wow, theres that great thing happening in concord . Both okay, so we have we accept applications on a quarterly basis and we review them and, you know, see whether theres a fit. But we also we receive referrals and we also kind of look to whats happening and see, oh, you know, maybe this organization might be a good fit as part of our network. Okay. And you mentioned fiscal i know that means money. If people want to help how can they do that, of course, the easiest way and what we always appreciate are donations. They can go to our website, theres a donate tab. But, you know, there are all kinds of ways for people to engage and help. As you as weve talked about, we have almost 80 activist projects and theyre doing a wide range of things. And there are ways people can volunteer, whether thats beach cleanup, signing your kid up for an Environmental Education camp, or helping with gardening in in San Francisco. And all of those opportunities you can find in our monthly newsletter, island wire. Thats great. I have to say, i think once children especially kind of get their hands in the dirt, it helps awaken a sense of, wow, this is my responsibility. And hopefully they turn into lifelong stewards for our planet. And if you would like to donate to Earth Island Institute , we have made it very easy for you to do just that. All you have to do is scan the qr code that is right there on your screen. Or you can head over to ktvu. Com slash, giving day. Okay. Changing course on marijuana. Federal officials expected to reclassify it as a less risky. I talked live with a drug policy expert about what th dangerous drug here in the us. Last fall we reported that federal Health Officials had recommended to reschedule marijuana. Well, now, the Us Department of Drug Enforcement plans to move toward that reclassification. This move could have a Ripple Effect throughout the country. So lets discuss this afternoon with tamara todd, lecturer of Marijuana Law and policy at uc berkeley. Thank you so much for being here. The proposal is to reclassify marijuana from its current status as a schedule one drug to a schedule three drug. What really does that mean . Sure. And thank you so much for having me so all drugs are classified at the federal level into the federal controlled substances act. And for 50 years, marijuana has been in schedule one, which means the federal government considers it, considers it highly addictive. And having no medical use. Other schedule one drugs are heroin, lsd, among others. Now, for the first time, following, as you mentioned, upon the recommendation last year from the department of health and Human Services, the Drug Enforcement administration is agreeing that marijuana should be moved to schedule three, schedule three drugs are drugs that have a lower addiction potential, less abuse potential than schedule one and two drugs. And theres acknowledged medical uses, which is what the department of health and Human Services had found and acknowledged after its review. Okay, so why reclassify marijuana now . Well, first of all, the department of health and Human Services undertook this review, and the Drug Enforcement administration, under the direction of President Biden, to look at the reclassification of marijuana. But the truth is, is its long been acknowledged that marijuana was inappropriately scheduled in schedule one initially 50 years ago, and thats been part of what has spurred, i think, the dramatic policy shift among states to move in a different direction, the scheduling of substances, back 50 years ago was not always based on science. For example, nicotine and alcohol, which both have high addiction potential and little medical use, actually arent scheduled at all in the federal controlled substances act, whereas cannabis that does have medical use and has less potential for abuse than some of these other substances is in schedule one, you know, was placed there largely for political reasons rather than scientific reasons, so i think now the effort is to bring some a little bit more consistency among state and federal laws and to acknowledge that it was always inappropriately scheduled and to allow more research and development of medical use to move forward. Okay. So some, though, are raising objections to keeping the drug scheduled at all. I want to read now what east bay congresswoman barbara lee said in a news release following this announcement. She called it a step in the right direction in also adding, quote, to be clear, cannabis must be fully descheduled in order to end the war on drugs and repair harm to communities of color. Lisa lee, who is the cochair of the congressional cannabis caucus, saying that also saying, you know, this move is progress for businesses, but that it cant undermine comprehen sive reform. Do you agree with congresswoman lee . Yes, i agree with that 100, she is absolutely right, the biggest impact of this rescheduling to schedule three, one, as i mentioned, is more honesty and the scheduling of drugs and more appropriately placing it in a lower schedule. It reduces research barriers, but the biggest like policy Practical Impact is just to reduce the tax burden on state licensed marijuana businesses, currently theres a provision of the federal tax code called 280 that prohibits a business from taking a standard business deduction if its scheduled, if it traffics in a schedule 1 or 2 controlled substance. So by moving marijuana to schedule three, it will remove that barrier for businesses. But what it does not do, and represent lee is 100 in this regard is that it doesnt legalize marijuana doesnt remove or reduce any federal criminal penalties, all the participant s in state marijuana markets will still be in complete violation of federal law, it doesnt release anyone from jail or prison whos in there for a marijuana offense or expunge any records, and it doesnt remove or reduce most federal collateral consequences of state law marijuana convictions that can very negatively affect a persons life in terms of housing, employment, education, even Public Benefits and immigration. So its a step in the right direction from a mistake, in scheduling that happened 50 years ago. But theres still a long way to go in terms of reform to both reconcile state and federal law, and to remove and undo the harm of our existing federal Marijuana Laws. Yeah. And there are definitely a long list of remaining steps before this reclassification happens. Really appreciate you coming on the show and talking with us about this historic potential move. Thanks so much. Appreciate it. Thanks so much for having me. Thank you. Reports of fraud against seniors are on the rise, and california saw more complaints than any other state in 2023.

And here you can see just a few of some of the adorable adoptables ready to meet you. These dogs are available now through oakland animal services. And for more on how you can meet your match, we are joined here in the studio by delfina hahn from oakland animal services, as well as vivian chiu and calista is here. Calista, the husky mix and calista is enjoying herself. She wants to explore the studio, i think a little bit more. We got her the stage. There you go. Hi, sweetie. How are you . Tell me. Tell me about the calista and the other animals that people could adopt right now. Yeah. So this is calista. Shes about a year old, so shes still young. And as you can see, she does have quite a bit of energy. But shes very sweet. She loves all people. Oh, shes unfazed by most things. Yeah, theres a lot going on in here, and she seems to be doing pretty well. She feels like shes just excited. She wants to go see what else is happening around here. Exactly. Yeah. Tell me about some of the other the other dogs and the other pets that that people could find if they come down to oakland animalvices ri yeah. L ages. We have puppies to seniors. We have dogs, small dogs to large dogs. Shes kind of a medium size. Shes about 45 pounds. Okay and so, you know, anything that someone is looking for, we have them at the shelter , or they might be in a foster home. But if someone comes to the shelter looking to adopt a dog, we make the process very easy. We chat with them, we have a matchmaking process to make sure that we are matching the family with a dog. That would be a good fit for them. Yeah. And what are some of the things you think families should keep in mind about how to know if a pet is the right fit for you and for your situation at home, so i think the first thing to think about is your lifestyle, to think about, you know, what . What is your life on a day to day basis and how the dog is going to fit into that picture. So you know, if you like hiking and adventures, callisto would be a great fit for you. Callisto wants to go on a hike. She she would love to go on adventures. She loves to play with dogs. So in the shelter we have doggy playgroups and she is great. She plays, she wrestles with dogs. So if someone has a dog who is energetic and playful, she would be a good fit. So it would be things like whats your lifestyle about your lifestyle . Yeah. And who else is in your family . Do you have dogs . Do you have young kids, do you have cats . So we have, i know, talked a lot about and tried to highlight the issues with overcrowding that you experienced in oakland and that many other shelters are experiencing right now are how much progress are you making . Are you making headway in getting more pets adopted out . Yeah so a little bit i think that it fluctuates. It goes up and down. So this week we actually in pretty good shape. Were not in a crisis mode right at this moment, but it does take every body to play a part. So we had a good number of adoptions. We had many fosters who were able to take dogs from the shelter into their homes, and that all, like every little piece, helps, right . But overall, we are still seeing increase intake on on average. Okay. All right. But obviously you still have plenty of wonderful animals ready to be adopted right now here in todays the perfect day to do it, calista. Thank you so much for your patience. Thank you both delphina and vivian. Thank you for coming in. We really appreciate it. All right. All right. Thank you. Over to you. I think calista is going to get adopted. Really soon. So very cute. Okay, a beautiful tuesday across much of the bay area as we say hi to all of our friends here in the south bay. Mark is back now. And mark, i know some changes are coming this weekend, but lets not get ahead of ourselves. Lets just enjoy what we have right now. Yeah, weve got a great forecast over the next several days. Heather. Lots of sunshine, temperatures warming up. And of course its that time of year. You probably know the allergy levels. The pollen levels have been going up as well. So here you cant see the pollen report, but the trees running high, grasses moderate and the weeds low. I always feel a little silly running an allergy forecast because we already know its that time of year. Youll probably step outside. Youve noticed that development over the past few weeks, as we have the breeze out there, and also just the dry conditions now showing you that the overall weather trend, it is this a warm pattern for wednesday and into thursday, 70 to 80 degrees, a little bit of a drop off by friday. And then well definitely cool things off by the weekend. And also were going to bump up those rain chances. In fact, heres the forecast model. And were showing you this and these numbers. You know to be honest we still have to figure out the exact numbers. But as you can see, more than just a few sprinkles here in the bay area. So this potentially could all be on saturday. And maybe some sierra snowfall if things materialize. So yeah, were still talking about some rain and sierra snowfall as we say hello to may coming up now showing you this. Lots of clear skies right now. All the clouds are well offshore in the pacific. The winds have been the constant over the past few days. Of course, we had a blustery weekend. Well see a change in the wind direction and all this area here in blue. That is a wind advisory. And that wind advisory begins 11 00 tonight until 5 p. M. On wednesday. So we could have winds going up above 30 miles an hour. This does include portions of Solano County for tomorrow. Heres a current check on the wind speeds out there you can see Oakland Airport winds westerly at about 16 miles an hour. Sfo winds out of the west oakland estuary in e foreground. San francisco out there in the distance with mostly clear skies. Current numbers. Its a nice mild day out there. 60s and 70s right now. Santa rosa, 76 degrees and santa rosa and a few neighborhoods will be approaching the 80 degree mark tomorrow afternoon.

This plane behind me is basically a one third scale prototype of what will eventually become boom supersonic passenger plane carrying about eight people. They call it overture and take a look at this, boom says, flying about twice as fast as commercial planes do today and of course, faster than the speed of sound. Its planes will be able to drastically cut travel time on transcontinental flights. Heres what those overture planes will look like. The Company Already has more than 130 orders, and preorders from united american and japan airlines. When you think about supersonic travel, you probably think of the concorde, which was really expensive, unattainable for a lot of people, and ultimately was taken out of service a few years after a deadly crash boom. Ceo says his companys planes will be different compared to concorde, with half a century old technology. Today weve got lighter materials, better aerodynamics, more efficient engines and we put all that together. Our first airplane will be able to make supersonic flight available at Business Class kinds of fares. Then well be able to do premium economy. And then i think theres a future not too far away where supersonic can actually compete with Economy Class fares and the research, development and testing is already underway. This video shows the plane you just saw on its first test flight last month. The very first time that aircraft ever left the ground. We talked to the two test pilots who will take it on more flights below the speed of sound at first subsonic. Looking to eventually fly supersonic, possibly as early as this year. Each time we go out, we get a little higher and a little faster, and well work up in altitude and up in speed. Sometimes at the same time, sometimes separating those two things. Second flight will have a lot of firsts as well. Thatll be the first time we retract the landing gear. So thats the thats the thats the big focus of the of the second flight. Boom is about to open a new factory in North Carolina. They hope to have passengers flying on these planes commercially by 2029. There are other Companies Working on similar projects. But boom ceo tells me theyve got about a ten year head start on the competition in mojave, california. Grady trimble, fox business, ktvu, fox two news at five starts now.
