If the dow can hold its gains through the end of the month it would mark the biggest quarterly comeback since 1933. Now to decision 2016, the president ial race being dominated by that socalled stop Trump Movement. The republican frontrunner is now the target not only of democrats but of conservative leaders who are trying to block his potential nomination and also the hacker Group Anonymous. Hallie jackson has more on that. Reporter now claiming credit for hacking donald trump, the Group Anonymous calling him a would be dictator. We are very serious about stop anything proposed forthright by the fascist donald trump. Reporter the hackers claim they posted their cell phone and Social Security numbers but those have been floating around online for months. Trumps campaign telling nbc Law Enforcement is investigating those who tried to illegally hack the candidates accounts. Anonymous probably trying to get attention for their socalled war on trump. In washington, a very different battle to try and stop him, less public too, after a secret huddle of frustrated conservatives, reassessing how to slow trump down with attack ads like this new one havent seemed to do much. Their plan, first call for a unity ticket. If that doesnt work, plot out strategy for a contested convention. House Speaker Paul Ryan acknowledging that scenario looks more likely. Were getting our minds around the idea that this could very well become a reality. Reporter now taking aim at trump for warning what could happen at a convention if he leads in delegates but doesnt get the nomination. I think wed have riots. Im representing a tremendous many, many millions of people. Nobody should say such things in my opinion, because to even address or hint to violence is unacceptable. Reporter and while the stop Trump Movement wants unity, theyre not saying who conservatives should unify behind. Talk of ted cruz and marco rubio teaming up, shot down. No, im not going to be anybodys vice president. Reporter rubio now praising cruz as conservative, as the texas senator faces more attacks from donald trump. This new photo shopped poster of the movie liar liar puts cruzs head on jim carreys body. But cruz may get the last laugh. Now backed by an unlikely former foe. Senator Lindsey Graham raising money for cruz less than a month after cracking this joke. If you killed ted cruz on the floor of the senate and the trial was in the senate, nobody could convict you. Not joking now. 11 16 and surveillance cameras catch a bar fight that led to a stabbing. Now police are hoping it will lead them to the killer. Heres video of a fight that nearly ended in a murder outside of the bar last november. The suspect seen here in that white shirt confronted the victim. The two began arguing and ultimately the suspect stabbed the victim at least one time and then ran from the scene. A body is found near vallejo and authorities are investigating how the body got there. Yesterday Afternoon Police were called to an area near azuar drive. Police have not revealed whether the body is that of a man or a woman and havent revealed any possible clues as to how it might have ended up there. It was a wild night for two men who crashed an ambulance in San Francisco. You can see the Emergency Vehicle up on the sidewalk. One man was arrested, another was not too far away. Police also found a bottle of rum at the scene and theyre trying to determine whether alcohol was a role in the crash. I want to know how they get the ambulance in the first place. While we look into that, a police chase ending in the east bay with a suspect driving their car into a home. Something else bizarre. Officers were searching the neighborhood in the richmond area for a i should say in richmond for a car that appeared to be casing the area. When they approached the car matching that description, the driver sped off. They found the car minutes later crashed into the side of a house, as you see from that picture. Police quickly caught and arrested the passenger, but the driver is still on the loose. Police discovered stolen property inside of that car and linked it to a recent home burglary. The property has been returned to its rightful owners. Pets in danger right now and were not talking about in the suburbs, in San Francisco. A family says that a coyote attacked and killed its dog in Balboa Terrace near sf state. City leaders confirm the number of reported coyote encounters are up across the board in San Francisco. Jeff markey says saturday night his dog was in the front yard for a quick bathroom break when a coyote killed her. Animal care and control posted warning signs in that area. Right there, the next house down, theres a coyote. At that point the dog is screeching, something happened very quickly. Whats our city plan when people are getting nervous about it . Do we just sit there and wait for something really bad to happen . Im not willing to do that. And it is not just right in that neighborhood. Across ocean avenue in the engelside terrace area, people snapped these photos. It looked like a family pet. Make sure you use a leash when you take your dog or cat out, but also pick up the food. Do not provide incentives for them to come out. Plenty of incentive to go outside this weekend, though. Well have some nice weather. Kari hall has more on that. Good morning. Weve seen low clouds and fog all across the bay area this morning. Were still dealing with that with our temperatures Holding Steady in the mid50s. Once the sun breaks out, well see temperatures rising. Well be up to 67 degrees in the east bay and the peninsula up to 71 degrees. Then as we go hour by hour in livermore, we will quickly see those clouds moving out. By 1 00 were at 65 degrees and then into the upper 60s today. So feeling very comfortable and then more clouds again tonight. Well be in this pattern for at least the next couple of mornings with the low clouds during the morning and then clearing out as we go through the day. As we go into the next several days, well begin a trend of cooler temperatures moving in. It was so warm yesterday, many spots hit the upper 70s to low 80s. Today its in e upper 60s. Also the same on saturday. Sunday well have more clouds moving in and well be slightly above average. Then also to start next week with more clouds and a chance of rain, it will be trending a little bit cooler than where we should be for the middle to end of march. Ive still been watching this storm system out there. Its barely visible here on the satellite imagery, but it is spreading out and also picking up on some dry air. Were starting to see some of those scattered showers now approaching the coast of washington now and oregon as well. Well see those showers well to the north of us. For us, we will have dry weather continuing for a little while longer. Looking at the futurecast, well see the spotty light showers starting to move into the north bay late saturday night and then into the day on sunday well see the showers moving in. At this point it looks like the rain will stay very light and then it continues to make its advancement towards the south by drying out for the most part as it moves into the south bay, but still some spotty showers between sunday night and monday, may also linger into the start of the day on tuesday. So the rain totals at this point, looks like we could have over threequarters of an inch in santa rosa, half of an inch in napa and then those rain totals drop off to a quarter of an inch as you approach san jose. And spring officially begins tomorrow night at 9 30 in the evening. Well be flipping that calendar with cloudy skies and looking forward to some rain. We will be dry, mostly cloudy heading into the day tomorrow. Once again sunday will be the day to watch for scattered showers. Ill talk about that more coming up a little bit later. As long as we which have to flip our clocks anymore, i think were good. Up next at 11 00, more than 100 cars vandalized and police say this may be the man responsible.

Been targeted ine on the hunt for a vandal. So far nearly 200 cars have been targeted in the east bay and this new Surveillance Video shows a critical clue in the investigation. The weapon of choice, a bb gun. Hes out holding it like its a handgun from that video. It does not appear to be a student prank, instead some serious damage. The neighborhoods in these four cities are getting hit right now, hayward, san lorenzo, Castro Valley and san leandro. Jodi hernandez has more from san leandro. I feel violated. Reporter thats how many people in san leandro are feeling tonight about the damage caused by a crew of vandals armed with bb guns.

Reporter surveillance cameras have captured the vandals driving into neighborhoods and taking aim at parked cars, blasting away at their windows. Well, i tell you what, i hope the police catch them before i do. Reporter this mans hit was in the latest attack wednesday morning. Its the third time the crooks have struck on santiago road. This mans car was targeted on the street a month ago. Somebody is angry about something, and because they get away with it, they come back and do it again. Reporter police say the bb gun vandals have damaged at least 180 cars in san leandro and surrounding areas of Alameda County and the attacks have been going on for months. So far they have no clue what or whos behind it. We dont know the reason why theyre doing this. It really makes no sense as to why people would randomly drive around neighborhoods and shoot windows out on cars for no reason whatsoever. Reporter jodi hernandez, nbc bay area news.

We first told you about the questionable spending by a Bay Area College chancellor. Weve now learned that he and his administrators are changing the rules. They can now wine and dine with taxpayer money. Senior Investigative Reporter vicky nguyen has the new twist. Weve learned the chancellor and his Leadership Team are changing the rules. They have decided its okay to wine and dine on the taxpayers dime. A 100 bottle of wine in san diego, a staff dinner with a 900 tab including french martinis, wine and beer during a work day lunch, just a few of the expenses the Investigative Unit first uncovered in november, revealing how ron galatolo is spending your tax dollars. Hi, im vicky nguyen with nbc bay area news. Did you charge alcohol to the district credit card . Im not quite too sure. Reporter hes the chancellor of the Community College district and he told us he was both aware and unaware of the districts rules about using public money to buy booze. An employee is not authorized to use a procurement card for personal purchases. Absolutely. And that is true. That is true. Were you aware of this policy before we showed it to you . No, i was not aware of that policy before you showed it to me. Reporter we found he charged hundreds of dollars of alcohol to his public credit card during his work meals and trips, even though the policy clearly says thats prohibited. Last night the district announced a revision to its procedures which now say when employees dine with business partners, vendors, donors or potential donors, the district will reimburse for alcohol. Theres no cap limiting how much money is to be spent on booze, just that employees must use prudence and must not purchase an unreasonable amount of alcohol. The district also clarified meals that are lavish or extravagant are not allowed. But resorts are okay if theyre reasonable based on the facts and circumstances. There wont be a vote on these new guidelines. Its up to the chancellor and his administration, and the new rules take effect now. The chancellor did not respond to our request for comment. The board of Trustees President says he agrees with the changes. Maurice goodman told us he does not think its appropriate to spend public money on alcohol and he wouldnt do it, but he understands that it happens. Thats a tough sell. Charges for a 300 bottle of wine, the public usually doesnt say thats okay. We called Community Colleges around the area. None allow the purchase of alcohol with public money. In san mateo, 276 employees have these credit cards but only the senior administrators can use their cards to buy booze. Guys. If you have a tip for our Investigative Unit, call us, 888996tips or send us an email to theunit nbcbayarea. Com. What could we do to prevent this from happening again . That is a question about the terror attack at San Bernardino at a state lawmakers hearing today. 14 people died at the hands of two terror suspects, a husband and a wife, back in december. Today assemblyman Freddie Rodriguez will hold a joint hearing to talk about possible lessons that can be learned from that day. Sheriffs Department Workers and an emergency room doctor are expected to testify. They held a similar hearing after the shooting death of a tsa worker at Los Angeles International airport. A man who went on a stabbing spree at uc merced was inspired by isis. The 19yearold from santa clara is accused of bursting into a classroom and stabbing four people last november. Mohammed was shot and killed by a Uc Merced Police officer. The fbi now says that detectives uncovered isis propaganda on mohammeds laptop and there was evidence that he visited the terror groups website as well. They say he acted alone. President obama is packing for an historic trip. Come sunday he will become the first president to visit cuba in almost 90 years. The president will visit havana first. There he will have an address on cuban television. He will also meet with cuban president raul castro on this trip and he will also attend a baseball game. Up next at 11 00, its a bay area proud from flowers to philanthropy. How a south bay man is using his amazing backyard garden to help his neighbors. You might as well go to las vegas. I dont approve of that as at all. Electronic billboards along 280. Well explain the proposal. And we still have the clouds affecting some sunshine this afternoon and cooler temperatures ahead with some rain. Ill detail all of that, coming up. People could be eg somethinew dr forget about the beautiful lakes and mountains, hundreds of thousands of people could be seeing something new during their commute now. Picture this, San Mateo County might be considering putting up electronic billboards along 280. This is a pristine stretch of freeway that is supposed to be free of billboards. Its a state scenic highway, a designation that limits development and advertising along the corridor but buried in a county report, the idea to put up billboards on 280 in order to bring in more money. The people we spoke with are conflicted. Im torn because that might compromise my serene drive. However, if it was useful content, Digital Signage versus old school advertising, i would be open to seeing what that looks like. We did reach out to county officials. They tell us that San Mateo County is not considering putting billboards on 280, but they say, quote, all thats being done right now is information gathering on the possibility of having billboards. Sounds like its a bit of semanti semantics. Spring is just around the corner and for many folks, their thoughts are turning to the garden. Not one man, though, in san jose. Its not just about having a green thumb here. He thinks about his garden year round and it shows. This year his incredible pack yard display has a new special purpose. Nbc areas Garvin Thomas joins us with this mornings bay area proud. Ive done stories on the past on ricks passion for flowers and gardening. Normally im pretty good at figuring out deep down what is motivating someone to do what they do, but clearly i didnt figure it out with rich. In my defense, until recently, he didnt understand it as well. Be careful. It gets kind of slippery. Reporter the third time rick is discovering isnt always a charm. In fact on this milpitas hillside, its just about the opposite. Its a disaster. Reporter for the third year in a row, rich has planted thousands of bulbs up here, which when in bloom are supposed to spell out a secret message for passersby, except they didnt bloom, again. Look at that. Thats completely completely mildewed. What you see here is 6700 failures. Reporter its all a bit of a surprise, considering rich is something of a maestro when it comes to bulb gardening. Just not up here. In the backyard im a near expert. Reporter rich is well known in gardening circles as the bulb guy of san jose. Each year he plants more than 10,000 in his backyard. Then opens it up for the public to enjoy the colorful results. Rich did it, he said, to simply share his love of flowers with the world of the not this year though. Now its taken on a different purpose. Reporter so what changed . Well, a door closed. Literally. And when it did, a picture that had been hanging on richs walls for more than 30 years crashed to the floor. When the picture fell off the wall, it was an epiphany. Boom reporter the picture, a rainbow, had been drawn by richards son, nicknamed boom. He died of cancer at the age of 6. Suddenly rich says he realized the garden was never supposed to just look good. It should do good. The rainbow on his garage door this year meant to match booms drawing, is being built with petals, each representing a 5 donation to fight childhood cancer. No parent should have to bury their child. Its pretty horrendous. Thats what this garden is all about now. Reporter rich says losing a child taught him a lot about perspective in life. That, for example, 6,000 flowers that dont bloom isnt a tragedy. But 10,000 that do might just one day prevent one. In spite of his failures up on that milpitas hillside, rich promises hell be back again for a fourth year planting his bulbs and trying to get his message out. Garvin thomas, nbc bay area news. Whatever he comes up with no doubt it will be beautiful. Thank you, garvin. If you know of someone doing something nice for other people, go to our website, nbcbayarea. Com and search bay area proud. We were just looking at our garden yesterday and thinking weve got to tear it all out and start over. Kari, a good weekend for that . I think so, especially today and tomorrow. And then if you go ahead and get it in the ground, youll get a little water on top of that before we start next week. Lets do a time lapse of the fog rolling into San Francisco from last night. Weve had these clouds with us for the past several hours. Even as the sun game up, we still have these clouds that we are having a hard time shaking, but well gradually see those clouds clearing out and our temperatures warming up. Its so much cooler right now compared to yesterday at this time. Some spots are hitting 70 degrees already. We are now at 57 degrees in San Francisco, 58 degrees in the south bay. A look at the north bay now. Were still in the low 50s in some spots like healdsburg and yountville. Its 61 in san rafael. So we will have some clearing today and boy this afternoon well have sunshine in san jose. Our temperatures bouncing up quickly. By this evening well start to see clouds rolling right back in and well start out tomorrow basically the same way as today. Looking at a high today in gilroy up to 74 degrees in san mateo, 65 in mission district. 66 degrees, much cooler than yesterday, thanks to those clouds and a stronger ocean breeze today. Oakland today heading up to 67 degrees. And this weather system that is well to the west of us is fairly spread out and it will create some light rain from sunday night into monday as well as Tuesday Morning before its well off to the east. And the futurecast shows that we will start to see some of those spotty showers moving in on saturday night for the north bay, but the rest of the bay area wont see that until about sunday morning into early afternoon. Around napa well start to see the rain creeping in. Mainly some once again spotty light showers. Then in the south bay another round on monday. Rainfall totals once again looking at about threequarters of an inch in santa rosa, half an inch in napa and a quarter of an inch for san jose. So as you make plans for the weekend, definitely a gardening weekend, getting into the upper 70s or upper 60s to low 70s. Peninsula to 70 degrees and the trivalley 71. Then that chance of rain in the forecast for sunday with some spotty showers. It looks good that we will have at least a little bit of rain in that forecast before we go back into some dry weather for the rest of next week. Ill keep you up to date on that and another look at the forecast coming up a little later. Sam and kris. Sprinkle some rain in there for your flowers, kris, good idea.
