Incident became public and the ravens released rice immediately, who then was also suspended by the nfl. Abc News Reporter Karen Travers has the new developments. Reporter just hours after the damning video of ray rice assaulting his wife went public, the Baltimore Ravens terminated him. They had no choice. When that video comes out this morning, its over. Reporter this new video obtained by tmz sports allegedly shows what happened inside that Atlantic City casino elevator between the ravens running back and his then fiancee. Heres rice hitting her, who charges back at him. Then he lands a punch that knocks her out. Tmz says it altered the video to quote, smooth out what it described as jumpy raw video. Since that video came out, questions were swirling about what the nfl and the ravens knew and when. The nfl said today this was the first time officials there saw any video of what happened inside the elevator. But rice himself said this in july. I think Roger Goodell has everything that the court system has. Reporter the aftermath of that punch was already public. This disturbing video showing rice dragging an unconscious palmer out of the elevator. Palmer defended him, so the ravens running back was charged with just third degree aggravated assault. He completes a diversion program, the charge could be dropped. In july, rice said repeatedly his actions were inexcusable. I made the biggest mistake of my life. Reporter the nfl has been under fire for rices meager twogame suspension. In response to the backlash, the league announced a new Domestic Violence policy. First time offenders get a sixgame suspension. A second offense, a lifetime ban. The nfl said today it has suspended ray rice indefinitely. He would have to apply to be reinstated. Karen travers, abc news, washington. The 49ers are dealing with a similar situation after defensive lineman ray mcdonald was arrested on suspension of Domestic Abuse nearly two weeks ago. His fiancee who was ten weeks pregnant at the time, had visible injuries when Police Showed up for a disturbance call at his home. Coach jim harbaugh is on record as saying the 49ers will not tolerate anybody convicted of abusing women or children on his team. He also said the niners are going to wait until the investigation plays out before making a decision on mcdonald. Today, harbaugh did not budge when asked if the ray rice situation will in any way affect the 49ers stance. We have been very clear on how were approaching this situation, with determining facts, what facts will determine and information will determine principles. Mcdonald is set to appear in court one week from today and adding to the situation now is a new report from the Sacramento Bee saying police were called to mcdonalds house another time previously, may 25th, 8 00 p. M. , for a disturbance. Though police did not clarify exactly what that disturbance was. It could be anything from a loud party or making noise or neighbors upset about anything, really. So heres my question. Did the nfl see the video from inside the elevator before that twogame suspension . The league claims that they had no knowledge of this. Of the second video, which makes you wonder how much energy they really put into the investigation to begin with. How could tmz get the video before anybody else . The nfl is a 9 billion a year entity with vast resources. It just stretches the credibility. The nfl has a real serious credibility issue on the way all of this has played out. Seriously. Thank you so much on that. In other news today, two people were hospitalized this morning after an accident involving a cyclist, a taxi van and muni bus.

First we start off with a viewer who tweeted do stores [ inaudible ] also prohibit use of plastic bags provided in the produce department . Great question. No. I dont know of any single law in the state of california that although it bans the bag at the checkout counter, it does not ban the bags in the produce aisle. It also doesnt ban it in any of the areas where they sell bulk food like raisins or nuts, allowed to have plastic bags there. Also in the bakery section, for breads, you are allowed to use the bags there. Although we call it a bag ban, its really not 100 complete bag ban. Selective bag ban. It is. One more thing i should add. Theres a bill on the governors desk that would make all counties, all cities, everywhere. We expect him to sign that. Via facebook, can you suggest no foreign fees credit cards we can use overseas. I can, kind of. Sort of. I will tell you how you can get the exact right one for you. What shes talking about, Credit Card Companies used to have completely bogus charges where if you charged something overseas, they would charge you a 3 fee to put it back into u. S. Dollars. The cost to the bank basically nothing. It was just a ripoff fee. Well, people got on to it so a lot of companies moved it to 2 or 1 . There is a whole bunch that now offer 0 because they know that means you will sign up for them. Recently, its an airline im trying to think of. Southwest. Southwest just switched over. They used to charge, they dont anymore. You need to check to make sure your particular card doesnt. The Platinum Card from American Express doesnt. Theres a bunch, capital one, many of their cards. What i want you to do is go to nerdwallet. Com or cardhub. Com and search with that parameter. Say i dont want any of these foreign transaction fees. Theres a bunch of them out there now. Its out there. Youve just got to look for it. Yeah. Now, what is the difference between a red tagged building and a yellow tagged building from the earthquake, of course . Man, it is huge. It is huge. A red tagged building, youre not even supposed to go back into for any reason, even to get your stuff out of it. Its like get out, its too dangerous, we dont know whats going on so stay out. When that happens, it is a huge, huge problem for a homeowner. As a matter of fact, if you ever get your house red tagged and you think its safe, you really need to fight this. This is what happened in the marina district. All these people were red tagged and they were trying to chase them out of the neighborhood. They ended up squatting on their front lawns, saying were not going anywhere. Thats the only reason those houses are probably there today, because they fought back. Just because you are given a red tag doesnt mean you have to live with one. Yellow tag says you can go in, move furniture around under some circumstances, some locales. That means they will actually allow you to still live in the house, just not particular rooms. Thank you, michael. Well, up next, a new San Francisco restaurant less than a week old is already infuriating some neighbors. What has some people so upset.

Michael finney on the best time to get the best price. Here is tonights prime time lineup on abc 7. At 8 00, the bachelorette. At 10 00, watch shark tank followed by acb 7 news at 11 00. Many latinos in San Francisco are outraged over the name of a new restaurant, banditos serves mexican food. Thats spanish for bandit, outlaw and for most mexicanamericans, the world is an ethnic slur. I assume people want the owners to change the name of the restaurant . Reporter they do. Let me tell you, activists say its not only the name banditos which is so offensive to an older generation of mexicanamericans and latinos but there are some things on the menu which are rather derogatory. For example, theres a drink called juan in a million. Juan of course being the name juan in spanish. But much to their credit today, the restaurant took a big important step to appease the community. This afternoon, the owners of the restaurant removed the glass which had the restaurants name on it. No word on whether they will change the name entirely. The owners received many posts from members of the community criticizing the name banditos. One of those was an activist. Its an outlaw, a criminal, someone who steps out of what is mainstream. So for us to be perpetuated as such is no different than being perpetuated as, you know, other derogatory terms in other communities. Reporter even San Francisco comedian margot gomez stepped in. When younger mexicanamericans, however they identify themselves, say well, it doesnt bother me, i say wonderful, because the activists who came before you fought, so you would never know that name. Reporter gomez has been in touch with the owners of the restaurant. Earlier, they had posted on facebook our intention was never to discriminate or reference racial stereotypes. The restaurant received so many comments, it had to turn off all posting ability on facebook. A few blogs in los angeles even wrote about it and how it had offended many. Even outside the latino community. Calling me a little child which im not, its nothing pleasant. Reporter one person wrote sometimes i think the p. C. Police in this town goes too far. We reached out to the owners. They said they were too busy working on tonights menu. For giants fans, if you ever wanted to skip the long pregame security lines at at t park, this is your chance. Sounds like a good one. The same company that maintains security fast lanes at the airport are bringing their concept to the ballpark through the rest of the season. Clear customers will be able to breeze through ballpark metal detectors beginning tomorrow, when the giants host the arizona diamondbacks. Those customers will enter through the marina gate. Now, clear is a trusted traveler Security Screening Program that gives subscribers access to the fast lanes at tsa checkpoints. You have probably seen it. I always think i should be part of that. Flying right through. The difference is, i dont know how they will set this up with clear, you pay for that privilege with the tsa. I think its Something Like 75 to 100 per year. If you are a season ticket holder, at the giants games, and there are thousands of them, i just wonder whether the clear lines are going those lines are going to be clear because you have so many people lined up. Its certainly worth a shot. Worth looking into. Thank you for joining us. Im ama daetz. Abc 7 news at 5 00 begins right now. It looks like a crime scene. A trail blocked off by yellow tape.

A little cooler today but we are expecting temperatures to recover this week. Details on the warming trend coming up. With a family group hiking, the probability of being attacked is extremely, extremely low. Yet it happened to a 6yearold child. Park officials cannot believe it. Tonight, they want to catch a Mountain Lion before it attacks again. Thanks for joining us. Im cheryl jennings. The young boy attacked by the Mountain Lion is out of the hospital tonight, a truly remarkable recovery we are glad to tell you about. This big cat jumped on him as he walked ahead of his parents and another family member. They were on a hiking trail. The chp says the Mountain Lion bit the 6yearold as if he were a deer. Vic lee is live tonight with the effort to find that Mountain Lion. Now that it has a taste for humans, it attacks again. Reporter thats right. You can see this trail is still closed here. The boy yet unidentified had bite wounds on his head and neck, but he was released from the hospital today. If you can swing the camera around, that is one of the traps, one of the box traps which the game wardens are going to set in the park tonight hoping to catch this puma, this Mountain Lion. We are also waiting for a fresh group of dogs to come by here today to try to track the elusive Mountain Lion. It is, however, rare for Mountain Lions to attack people, as you said. They have only had 16 attacks since they began recording these incidents a hundred years ago. Searchers and their hounds have seen tracks that appear to be from the same Mountain Lion in a drainage area of the canyon where the 6yearold boy was attacked. Game ward Travis Jarrett was with the dogs all night. Feels very comfortable in that specific area. We have cut tracks going up the hill, back down the hill, and then also a few tracks that are fairly fresh. Reporter the 6yearold boy was with his family and friends yesterday afternoon on a hiking trail just off the winery grounds, walking about ten feet ahead of the group when the lion grabbed and dragged him through the brush. Authorities say his father and another man were able to get the lion to release the boy by shouting and scaring it away. Tonight, the searchers will bring in fresh dogs and traps with road kill carcasses. The traps would enable the wardens to catch the animal alive and test its dna against that which was left on the child. We could conclusively demonstrate this was the animal that attacked this young child, it would very likely be euthanized. If not, of course we would let it go. Reporter the trappers say
