Lets get you caught up on the news of the day. New this morning a scare in the air for passenger on board a jetblue night are to sacramento last night. Severe turbulence forced an Emergency Landing in rapid city, south dakota. The plane had taken off from boston and hit a patch of bad weather. 22 passengers and 2 crew members were transported to the hospital. All of whom were treated and released. The passengers continued on to sacramento aboard another plane. They just stepped off the plane were told. Our affiliate in sacramento are interviewing passengers about that harrowing experience. City leaders are trying to figure out who is axing dozens of trees in the willow glen neighborho neighborhood. Bizarre target for vandalism. Today in the bays bob redell is live. Bob, this is the second incident in just a matter of weeks. Unfortunately you are correct. Good morning, sam and laura. Were here in meridian near dry creek. This is one of the newly planted tree. Over 24 hours ago someone took an electric saw and cut through this stump. If you go down they did the same to this new tree and its hard to see in the dark but there are 23 of these trees total here along this stretch of meridian that someone came, they believe wednesday night, early yesterday morning, some time in the middle of the night with that electric saw and cut down the trees. Its something they did similarly across the street to a 23 other trees. This was probably about three to four weeks ago. We talked with councilman this morning, he represents this district in the willow glen district of san jose. It was he who along with our city forest Environmental Group helped plant these trees about a year ago to beautify this area as part of a 50,000 project, broader project. Money that she was able to get out of his own city budget to help plant these trees. Again, hes expressing his frustration to us this morning when we spoke with him on the phone about why someone would do this. He is offering a 5,000 reward. The mercury news report put something out there thought that maybe this is politically motivated given the fact that recently over the past several months someone has also defaced art boxes in the area. Theres colorful art boxes and they poured white primer paint on them. Again, just a speculation this is politically motivated. Dont know why they would want to do this but the fact they cut down all 46 trees among hmeridin and dry creek to beautify this area has council men and other people who live around here very frustrated. Councilman offering a 5,000 reward. Bob redell, today in the bay. Thank you very much.
