Information. Reporter the data is being turned over because of a lawsuit won by the concerned Parents Association, a group that wants to find out if disabled students have been treated properly in california schools. A noble effort, perhaps, but one that has privacy advocates concerned about the safety of the data. A lot of that information could be used to commit Identity Theft if it gets into the wrong hands. Reporter information from an especially Vulnerable Group because kids dont monitor their personal data anywhere near as closely as adults. I spoke to the lawyer of the Parents Association who took pains to say they dont want any of the private data. They just want to make sure children are getting equal access to education. They say theyll even have an outside observer to check the transfer of data to try to keep everything as safe as possible. Some parents say, let them have the information. Our paranoia is getting in the way of the needs of the kids. Reporter others want to know how safe their childrens private data will be. The sheer broadness of the order is what is concerning. Reporter heres part of the problem. Instead of sounding the alarm to let parents of california students know about the lawsuit and Data Transfer, theres a small item on the department of educations web site. Who among us is going to see that . You should be informed about this, though. Weve put the story on our web site, nbcbayarea. Com. We also found a form you can fill out to opt out of the Data Transfer for your child. Theres a link in the story to the opt out form inside as well. Raj . Very good information. Thank you, scott.

A house that was on the brink of crumbling down a cliff went up in flames this afternoon. No one knows why. Firefighters rushed up the palmetto drive to find flames and black smoke pouring out of the home. You can also hear popping noises there. Officials believe propane tanks may have exploded in the garage. At one point neighbors were afraid that the fire would spread to their homes as well. You always wonder about the sparks that come off and the little fires that stay lit. Luckily, firefighters kept the fire contained to one house. Because the house was red tagged several weeks ago, no one has been allowed to live in the home. Officials are now trying to figure out what sparked that fire. Filled with danger and filled with a lot of oohs and ahs, people around the world tuning into mavericks. The elite surfing competition did not disappoint today, on land and on sea everyone getting a glimpse of those 24 daredevil surfers. Here it is from another angle. Our nbc chopper with a great view of the action right off the coast in Half Moon Bay.

Ive been surfing it 23 years. And im learning something every time i come out here. And im getting checked every time i come out here. Reporter ken collins with drew from the competition after nearly drowning in the white wash. I physically feel 100 . I just have a hole in my head and my ear and i cant go in the water. Reporter he was rescued by jet skiers after pulling his inflatable vest to get to the surface. In the next heat, todays champion nic lamb was caught in whats being called the beating of the day, getting pinned by several waves and eventually pulled out of the hot zone. A few minutes later he was back on his board riding another monster. Oh, wow inside the Half Moon Bay brewing company, proud parents of derek duncy cheered as he caught his first wave of the day. The separation is there now just enjoy and crush it. Reporter the excitement was contagious. The fans gathered around big screen tvs all over Half Moon Bay to watch surfers drop into and be dropped by massive waves. Looked like he rode a couple of waves in there. Reporter maverick volunteer says the Surf Community waits all year to see the best compete for the perfect barrel. And next year hes hoping a female surfer will be named a titan. Man or woman, man. You got what it takes to get up there and ride the big wave you should be out there riding the big waves. Reporter no woman has ever competed in the mavericks competition. It is an inviteonly event. This year savannah shaunessy was invited as an alternate. But unfortunately earlier in the season she hurt her knee surfing at mavericks. Reporting at Half Moon Bay, Michelle Roberts, nbc bay area news. Michelle, thank you. So the best big wave surfer in the world . Who is it here it is. Nic lamb. He jokingly said he would use his 30,000 prize to take a reporter out to dinner. He also talked about the stiff competition out on the water. All of us when were sitting in the lineup were all jockeying for position. So when you think were not competing were always competing. So its tough out there, yeah. These guys are the best in the world. So its always good to be on top. He is the best in the world. Lamb also taking a few minutes now to take some pictures, of course, and some selfies and poisie posing with the fans waiting for him. Rescuers were in the water further up coast do doing mock drills to demonstrate how dangerous the waves can be. This is a warm Holiday Weekend were going into.

Coming up in about ten minutes well have a closer look at just how long these big waves will last. A gruesome crime scene in san leandro. Police arrested a man for the stabbing death of his father. Investigators say the suspect was covered in blood when officers arrived at the familys apartment at 5 30 this morning. The complex is just off 580. A neighbor called police after hearing a man scream for help. When officers arrived they found the victim dead inside. Its a very traumatic time for not only the officers that responded to this because of what they had to encounter this morning, but the family members who have to suffer through and try to make sense of why a son would kill his father. Police are so far withholding the names of both men. The motive for the murder is also unknown. New at 6 00 tonight, San Franciscos top legal officer is commenting for the first time on the autopsy report of mario woods. San Francisco Police shot and killed woods in the bay view two months ago. Police say he had stabbed a person and was holding a knife when officers opened fire. In the autopsy the medical examiner revealed that woods had 21 Bullet Wounds in his body. San francisco District Attorney was asked if this was an Alarming Number of bullets does the number of shots concern you . Does that seem excessive to you . As far as shooting concerns thats why were investigating the shooting. But we havent completed our investigation so were not prepared to discuss what our findings are because we havent concluded yet. The autopsy report said the bullets came from five officers handguns. The san Francisco PoliceDepartment Said they will use the autopsy report in their own investigation of the shooting. A bay area man is in jail tonight after dna evidence linked him to a 2014 gang rape at u. C. Santa barbara. Investigators say this man of san ramon was arrested on a felony drug charge last month and that arrest was the break in the rape case. He gave a dna sample which was added to a fbi database. Detectives say it matched with dna evidence found at the ucsb crime scene two years ago. Chen was enrolled at u. C. Santa barbara until a couple of months before that rape. A bizarre crash in San Francisco caught a lot of peoples attention today. Take a look. A pickup truck ended up on top of a car, and all of this slammed up against a munie bus. Its unclear how this happened. The crash was right near city college of San Francisco. Police say one person was hurt, but we dont know which car or truck they were in we do know the passengers none of the passengers on board that bus were injured. Im robert handa live in san jose where police are trying to track down a suspect in a deadly hitandrun crash. Coming up well show you how investigators got their big break when they recovered the car and why it might lead to an arrest.

Developing news in the south baythe searcis on thedriver of were following some developing news in the south bay. The search is on for the driver of this red car. Police say the car hit and killed a bicyclist in san jose. The driver then sped off. The car was spotted this morning several hours after that crash and not far from the scene. Nbc bay areas robert handa is in san jose this evening. And robert, this day and age theres usually Surveillance Video. Whats sjpd telling you . Reporter well, we have been told that tonight police are gathering Surveillance Video from some local businesses, including one that apparently shows the car leaving the scene. So investigates got a big break today when they recovered what they believe to be the car involved in the deadly hitandrun. Police investigators say the car involved in the Early Morning hitandrun was distinctive in style and color, which they say they hoped would make it easier to find. That region might be why the red honda del sol was found abandoned this morning. Police say the damaged vehicle matched the description given by witnesses who sought Early Morning collision. The tacqueria owner didnt know about the hitandrun but thought something bad had happened. I said how did it get over here . Thats why my reaction was, i mean, that suspicious. Call the police. Reporter police are now examining the car for clues and continue to search for the driver. At this point investigators say the abandoned car and witness accounts indicate the driver knowingly left the scene of a crime. It appeared that the bicyclist was struck by the vehicle and that the vehicle fled the scene northbound on winchester boulevard. Reporter the Restaurant Owner and neighboring Business OwnerMiguel Gonzalez would shot video of the suspiciouslooking car said they couldnt believe someone would leave an injured person behind. The police said there was a bottom until the back of the car. So maybe it was something involved with drinking. Its hard to say. But thats life. Sometimes we are here, the next day you never know. Reporter police say so far there are no indications the car was stolen. So naturally they are trying to track down the registered owner. The Coroners Office says at this point they are still trying to make a positive identification of the victim. Live in san jose, robert handa, nbc bay area news. Okay. Thank you, robert. A followup now on last months deadly Greyhound Bus crash. That report fails to explain how accident happened. Two passengers were killed when the bus slammed into safety barrels and then rolled over on 101 in san jose. Todays preliminary report from federal investigators rules out mechanical failure as the case. Previous lit ntsb ruled out drugs and alcohol, saying the bus driver had none of them in his system. Dangerous waves along the Northern California coast. We want to show you ocean beach this afternoon. Look at that. Ferocious surf. Its being blamed for three deaths in less than a month. So today First Responders are issuing a very visual warning. Nbc bay areas Chuck Coppola is live at San Franciscos ocean beach. And chuck, it looks very, very scary out there. What are lifeguards saying . Reporter well, it was very harrowing, too, to watch. At one point the surf was so high, coast guard vessels we were watching practically disappeared under the spray as the waves crested over them. And a swimmer as part of this mock rescue was carried away from the rescuers. The current was that swift. It was all part of a drill prompted by a number of recent drownings along the coast. Breakers off ocean beach pitched a 47foot Coast Guard Boat skyward as rescuers hovered overhead. A dramatic rescue demonstration against the powerful backdrop of the stormy west pacific. Weve had folks swept out, young, old, championship swimmers swept out, surfers. Reporter eight people have been swept out to sea since el nino conditions began. From santa cruz to pacifica to the rocks off lands end in San Francisco and further to marin. Five rescued in time but just barely. Still, its led to three drownings in less than a month. We realized that when you get these type of numbers and you get them so close together, its apparent that people just simply arent aware of the conditions. Reporter in a mock rescue today, the Swift Current carried a stranded swimmer more than 50 yards in a minute. A valuable lesson to two young girls who watched. The waves are huge. And we saw those boats. Theyre crashing down. Did you see how fast that swimmer was carried south . Yeah. And yeah, it was crazy. Reporter the bottom line, not a good time to bring the pets to the beach. Watch out for sneaker or rogue waves as they call them. And stay off the rocks. Theyre simply too slippery and you can easily be slammed against them. Finally theres a reason why you dont see lifeguard towers besides the fact that its deck. You dont see lifeguard towers on ocean beach as in unlike others in southern california. Theyre trying to discourage swimming here, especially now. Reporting live at San Franciscos ocean beach, im Chuck Coppola, nbc bay area news. Were celebrating those big waves with mavericks and then we have this warning. Jeff rainiery has the latest. If you are in the water happen to get caught in a strong rip current, the best advice with that to outswim it is to swim parallel to shore and eventually youll outrun it. If you try to fight it things can get dangerous. As we heard in Chuck Coppolas piece stay out of the water this weekend. Check this out for boaters. 20 to 30foot waves likely through saturday. Deep water waves just offshore. So its not only swimmers but also boater that is should watch out. Current waves at 12 feet could go as high as 15 feet through saturdays forecast. As you get a look at saturday, well keep sunny skies and temperatures go up a degree or two. Also a little bit of cloud cover continuing through the south way for partly cloudy conditions. 72 in the south bay, trivalley 74, San Francisco 67. What about valentines day on sunday .

And right up into wine country, maybe you already have your love and youre looking for something to do . Napa might not be a bad option for you. Switching gears now turning to the next possibility of rainfall coming our way. The way we see it now looks like next wednesday and thursday the possibility of some scattered rain, then a better chance of maybe a more moderate storm system by the 25th, 26th and also the 28th of this month. And better chances of aboveaverage rain as we head throughout march. So how much rain could we be looking at next week . Its not a whole lot but you can see the green here expected. That correlates with. 25 to. 50 inch. As we leave you right now looks like we may get an additional 5 to 9 inches of snow next week as well. Full forecast in about 20 minutes.

Some rattled nerves in an east Bay Community tonight. A Mountain Lion was spotted close to homes this week. That big cat was spotting roaming near cal state east bay near the campus. Nbc bay areas Elyce Kirchner is in that nba hood now with what experts say could have caused this rare sighting. Reporter Animal Police actually say Mountain Lions are more likely to come out of hiding during the drought. They also say its very rare you see them in a residential neighborhood. But thats exactly what happened here. Several sightings have been reported of Mountain Lions. The most recent one happened right here behind me up the hill last night. Gloria couldnt believe her eyes. It was very close to the houses. Reporter on her daily hike, she spotted what appears to be a Mountain Lion in the hills of concord not far from her house on shady brook lane. Theres rock. He actually got on top of the rock for awhile and was sitting there looking around. Reporter shes not the only one who has spotted an animal on the prowl. The Mountain Lions were here before we were. Reporter another neighbor spotted one, too, just last night in the same area, and posted this photo of the Mountain Lion on a local blog. Weve seen like coyotes usually. But not Mountain Lions. Thats kind of scary. They are a very powerful animal, probably one of the biggest the greatest hunters that we know in the united states. For sure. Reporter this is what they look like up close. But despite their powerful physic, animal experts say Mountain Lions are skiddish and attacks are actually quite rare. Since 2004, there have been six in the state of california, five of them were nonfatal, one was fatal. Seeing them is also rare. Thats something gloria isnt taking for granted. It was on my bucket list. So im able to cross that off now. As crazy as that sounds ive always wanted to see a Mountain Lion and now i have. She can cross that off her bucket list. Experts say if you spot one, dont run. Hold your ground. If you can try to appear larger, maybe hold up your jacket or shirt and make lots and lots of noise. Reporting live from concord tonight, Elyce Kirchner, nbc bay area news. Well, potential problems uncovered on hundreds of balconies in berkeley. Coming up the dangers revealed in a new report in the wake of that deadly collapse. But first. Stop resisting. Im not resisting. Video can reveal the truth if an officers body cam is on. We investigate a flaw in the Police Body Cam system thats keeping the public in the dark. New normal at Police Agencies across the country includin body cameras are becoming the new normal at Police Agencies across the country, including here in the bay area. But how often are those cameras actually turned on and recording . We investigate which local departments track this information and which dont. Heres Senior Investigative reporter vickie winn. Hang on. No no, no. Stop. Weve got one detained. Youre watching cell phone video recorded by a Mountain ViewPolice Officer during the arrest of [ inaudible ]. Stop resisting. Im not resisting. Clark shared this video with us admitting it doesnt show him at his best. But he says what the officers video also doesnt show, Moment Police tased him in the chest and neck. He never moved his hands. He said he and his wife were waiting at a doctors appointman when he got into an argument with another patient. He turned his phone off and said to [ mute ] mind your own business. Clark said he pulled out his pocket knife with a threeinch blade. Thats when office staff called 911. He has a knife. Yes, he has. What kind of knife is it . A pocket knife. What happened next is in dispute. Officers say clark ran out of the building and continued to run after they told him to stop. They say he reached down toward his waistline where an officer saw a knife clip. That officer tased him. Thats when a fourth officer ran up from the left and just immediately tased me. He was arrested for charges including brandishing a weapon and resisting arrest to which he pled no contem contest. But he wonders why there was no officer video. My husbands head was going straight into the curb. Mountain view police declined to speak on camera. But they said none of the four officers on scene had a body camera because the incident took place during the voluntary phase of the departments body cam program. This is my tax dollars at work. Its encounters like this where the police and civilian accounts conflict that are prompting a nationwide push for cops and cameras. I think the trend frankly is going to be towards greater and greater openness. Reporter chris magnus just took the top cop job in tucson but served as head of richmond p. D. For the past decade. Hes credited with Building Trust between police and community members. Do you think all Police Departments should move in the way of getting body cameras . I do. Not only should they do it but i think the publics going to expect that they do it. Reporter he oversaw the implementation of richmonds body camera policy. And training. For its 188 officers last year. Just so you know, we have a body camera youre being recorded. Reporter officers go through drills like this every three months to keep their skills sharp, skills that now include turning on their cameras at the beginning of any call for service. Keep your hands right where i can see them. Dont move. Dont move. Reporter data from richmond p. D. Shows in the first two months officers were equipped with cameras the department logged 28 use of force incidents. That means anything from an officer displaying a taser to fierli firing a weapon. But none of the incidents was recorded. Data shows over time the number steadily improved to 48 in the First Six Months and most recently 92 of use of force incidents were caught on camera. Youre expected to have the camera on. Reporter magnus says there are times officers can turn off their cameras including when theyre dealing with victims of sex assault or juvenile but repeatedly not rolling during a use of force will be disciplined. There have to be consequences if you dont turn on your body camera. We have in fact disciplined some folks for that. Reporter the Investigative Unit requested similar data from all bay area Police Departments with body cams. We found most track when officers are recording during use of force incidents. But here at oakland p. D. Theres no way to know how often the cameras are turned on, recording or broken during use of force incidents. Even though the department has had more body cameras and for longer than almost every other bay area department. The Pilot Program started in 2010 and became official in 2013. A spokesperson o. P. D. Says they dont have a tracking device. We asked the chief to ask why but were told he could not accommodate our request. You cant have some officers turning on their cameras some times and others turning them on other times. Reporter this public defender his office represents 40,000 people a year. Why do you think its so important to have that data . In the use of force you have a Police Officer whos taking one of the weapons that theyre armed with and deciding to deploy it against a civilian. Whats wrong . In those moments, thats when the community is most concerned about an officer acting correctly. There also was a real learning curve toward officers turning on the camera. Reporter chief went at a Public Safety meeting last month. It seems like a very simple thing. And its not difficult to do. Its just do you remember to do it under high stress. Reporter morris says not only is it troubling if the department doesnt track whether an officers recording during use of force incident. Drop the gun. Drop the gun. Reporter hes also seeing another change at opd. Theyll say to the other officer, i think we need to have an administrative conversation. Is that code for turn off your body camera well talk about this later . It is. It is. Its an unwritten code. Reporter opd says its policies allows officers to turn off cameras when they are discussing sensitive information. What do you think of that . I think its b. S. To be honest ithink there should be ultimate transparency. My question to the chief when i spoke to him most recently was, what is there to hide . Ive got assault in the waiting room and i get tased. A judge ultimately sentenced this man to one day in count county jail and anger management classes. Some people might say you were taunting the officers. I was more overcome just with the situation. Reporter but he says he wishes the officers were wearing body cameras and rolling from the start. I thought i had the right to remain silent. Reporter to capture the good, the bad, and ultimately get as close to the truth as possible for both sides. Cameras might be a starting point. Reporter now, body cameras became mandatory for Mountain ViewPolice Officers in september. And since that time there have been six use of force incidents. 33 were caught on camera. Other local departments we have the data at nbcbayarea. Com. If you have a tip for our Investigative Unit give us a call at 888996tips or send vickie or the unit an email at nbcbayarea. Com. A tragedy is sparking change. More than 400 more than 400 buildings with balconies in berkeley now need repairs.

Woody williams says those feelings came through again today when hundreds came to gather to welcome him to the bay area. It was a welcome fit for a war hero at San FranciscoInternational Airport today. I had no idea that that was going to happen. So i was surprised and pretty well breathless. Reporter members of the uso, marines and local Law Enforcement gathered to greet Woody Williams at the gate. The 92yearold from West Virginia is one of six world war ii medal of honor recipients still living, and the only one left who fought at iwo jima. Day of infamy in my life, february 23rd, 1945. Reporter just 21 at the time, woody went forward alone with a 70pound flame thrower as soldiers charged at him with bayonettipped rifles. I never permitted myself to think they was not going to make it. I had a beautiful young baby back home waiting for me and i was determined to get back there and marry her. And i finally did. And we spent 63 yea of wonderful life together. Reporter woody suffered from shell shock, but eventually pulled through to help other veterans working as a counselor. He says the medal of honor, the militarys highest award, is his proudest achievement. Having the medal of honor is the epitome. Reporter but the humble hero said the medal really belongs to his fellow marines who died protecting him almost 71 years ago. Its theirs. I just wear it in their honor. Reporter out of the 27 medal of honors awarded for iwo jima, only 13 recipients came home. Woody says as the last surviving medal winner hes lucky to be able to tell his story.

It will stay rough here all the way through saturdays forecast with waves that could generally be as high as 15 feet. But boaters take notice.

Now lets take a look at the weather pattern. I know all of you are enjoying the sunshine when we get it lately. But theres that guilty part of your conscience that also knows we need that rainfall with our fouryear drought. This weekend, no chance of rainfall. High pressure off to the south.
