Five officer involved shootings in a week, the latest in the south bay and one overnight in the east bay, as well with high speed chases.

All right, they want to fight crime but do they have the money to do it. Yes. We will get into that in depth when it comes to the mayors state of the city speech coming up. But first, in the bay area, we have another policeinvolved shooting. It started at 3 20 this morning at fletcher lane and Watkins Street in hayward. We are hearing a victim may have tried to run over police during that stop and started chasing him. Then we are hearing reports that police then shot at the car, causing to it crash. No word on if the driver died from the crash or from a gun wound. Another passenger in the car may have been transported to the hospital with injuries. We have a crew headed to the scene. We will bring you more details later on in the broadcast. Meanwhile another high speed chase end with officers shooting and killing a suspect. That is after he rammed several police cars and led officers on a chase. It marked the fourth deadly officer shooting in the past week, not including the one we just mentioned in hayward. Yesterday it happened at the intersection of blossom and guelera avenue. More than a dozen officers were involved in the chase. Look at this cell phone video. You can see the suspect car followed by several police cars. It began at 2 30 in the resident area of camden and union avenue. Police say an officer decided the driver was acting suspiciously for some reason. He approached the car and the driver sped off. When the officer caught up with him the driver rammed the police car and that brought all these other officers into the chase. During the pursuit the initial pursuing officers car is disabled. He had to drop out of the pursuit and the suspect then is able to ram what we believe at this point to be at least two other marked police cars. And there was a high speed chase on highway 85 followed by that lower speed pursuit you saw on city street. That is after the suspects car blew a tire. He stopped and got out and felt he presented an imminent danger. That is when two officers opened fire. He died at the scene. And less than 24 hours earlier an overnight chase from daley city to San Francisco ended with another officer involved shooting. According to officers they shots and killed the suspect when they say he raised a gun at them. And in Sonoma County deputies killed a suspected can kidnapper on friday. Authorities say they were tipped off by his victim who texted a friend to call 911. The suspect led deputy on the chase before crashing.

Either way the goal is to get the guns off the streets. From the bay area to around the nation the automatic budget cuts also known at the sequestrations are slowly rippling through. What we know is they will have a gradual affect on thousands of federal workers. We have more on the Immediate Impact of the budget cuts at their own schools. Here it is. These cuts are not smart. They will hurt our econy and cost us jobs. Congress can turn them off at any time as soon as both sides are willing to compromise. Reporter but real cuts are coming. They will arrive first on military bases and native american reservations, places were federal funds make up 40 to 50 of yearly budget, meaning school days will have to be dropped almost immediately. If i am a man or woman in uniform in afghanistan right now, the notion that my school or my children on an army base might be disrupted because congress didnt act, that is an impact. Reporter also likely, furloughs for tens of how thousands of workers in april. The Fact Checkers are accused at the Washington Post of exaggerating the severity of job losses and cuts on capitol hill.

You like to put him on the spot, ann, right . Yes. How else do i make him earn his salary . [ laughing ] we are expecting an inch at the most over a threeday period. Not a lot. We are only 75 of average and we need more rain. Looks like we will get a little bit but not nearly enough. There is a prediction for you, drought in the horizon [ laughing ] you work for the newspapers i wouldnt go that far oakland mayor gene kwan is upbeat about the citys future. The main issue was the focus of the annual state of the city address this week. Kahn admitted it would be can juan rd juan said there will be progress. The question is whether or not we will have enough money to continue that in future years. It is something we have done for now. And earlier we sat down to discuss Public Safety in oakland. We asked him how the city plans to support the city. There is not much detail in terms of how we will get there, but we are moving forward as a city, as one city and one council. The initiative that is have been proposed have been by the city council leadership, not by the mayors office. So the question becomes how do we pay for ongoing support of our police department, whether it is police officers, the crime laps. And we have done as a council, on the Public Safety committee, the next tuesday meeting where we will be asking the state, the federal government, our county officers to partner with us in terms of how we can do things together as as opposed to being in a silo in oakland. I understand you have an agreement pending the county and possibly with the state for more officers to get on the patrol in oakland. Is that true . That is absolutely true. We also have a push for a new academy class. With those Academy Classes you are a couple hundred cops short. How do you pay for this especially at the same time with workers on furlough. And if you have extra money there is a lot of pressure. You know what oakland is in a critical situation right now and Public Safety is a priority. We have to acknowledge and invest in that and that is what we are currently doing. Now, there is no way, there is no getting around we will have to ask the voters for Additional Support in lieu of taxes . No, we cant get around it. So, we have to grow not only in the Police Academies and police force, but at the same time we have to invest in the clean city. The public works and roads have to be approved, as well. You have to sell voters on the trust that if they catch them that the money is going to go for potholes and police and there is a gap there with the public. They dont seem to crust city hall. Well, absolutely right. I even have some reservations myself, my experience. The bottom line for oaklanders, we are talking about the future, our children, families, education and businesses that need to grow, we have to invest in Public Safety. That means more officers if you turn on the tv or read the paper on a daily basis, you clearly see the need for officers on the street. Therefore we not only have to pay for it, but we have to get more creative working with the county supervisors to work with the sheriff, county Police Academy and more. We have to work together. There seem to be a willingness and united effort by the mayor and council toward this goal. When do you see going to the voters for that . There is debate already whether we should do it this november or the following year. My feeling at this point is that we need to really regain the trust of the public. And for utilization to jury out there real for us to jump out there real soon, considering where we are, we will not be successful. So, i think we have to work at it. The monitor, compliance officers and all the other characters involved with us. We need to gain the trust of the public so i would recommend maybe the following year. That is what he figures it will take to win back the trust. Oakland has looming pension debt, Health Care Coverage debt for its workers still. They are still paying for the deals me made years ago.

He shared his vision for the party with san diego republs last january. 06 0 ket holder to. Today former Senate Minority leader jim roulty is set to become the new leader of the san diego Republican Party. I am a season ticketholder to the san diego chargers. [ laughing ] and like the Republican Party, they didnt have a very good year. I think better days are ahead for had san diego charges. And i think better days can be ahead for the California Republican party. [ applause ] okay. We turn to former mayor willy brown and talk about the g. O. P. Which by the way happen to be 500,000 this debt. Our first question was what does victim need to do to bring back life to the Republican Party in california . You have to get rid of the debt. You cant do anything with the party in so much debt. And secondly he has to recruit new blood to run for statewide office and really dictate where the resources go in the forthcoming contest in 2014. But what cuss does he do about the ideology about the Republican Party that doesnt seem to be meshing with the mainstream or with most people in california. Ultimately that will not be important. For jim, he is a practical Popular Party for women. How can the Republican Party win seats given they are under 30 the voting rules now. They have to select governor quality candidates. That automatically means it cannot be someone with an aura in the center of their forehead. They have to be perceived of qualifying for their jobs. They have to find people that dont necessarily look at and sound like republicans . Absolutely. They have to find people that really are genuine interested in problem solving or at least they can market them that way. Do you think the republicans have the talent pool to go stabilize in. Yes, i do. I think they will have to be very careful this time around. Look at the treasurers job. Clearly the person doing huge millions for other propositions, as well, if those people run they could very well succeed in those open seats enthat would be a start. I think the difficulty with the Republican Party here in california is the social issues. So many more liberalminded thinking people who still want to be fiscally conservative but dont like their stamp on a lot of the social issues. That will be the challenge.

We dont think of captions we dont think of the rights, do we . Yes. It is the first time we see a larger country like africa getting involved in the issue of human rights, getting involved in the aspects of the country and the way they operate, so i think we are looking at what is happening in our own country. We are quick in saying we are silicon valley, we are a bass chin of forward thinking and we are not on this issue. I think corporations are trying to be image conscious. They dont want a lot of controversy. I think the prime audience is inspiring others. A lot of the corporations are not tech or financial.

It would be nice to see some perceived rights of the companies. Wells fargo, bank of america, it would lend credibility if you got some of those company to get in on the game op this.
