Now racial tension and anti Police Sentiment has taken a sort of fashion as the National Police association asked everyone to support Law Enforcement by wearing blue today. Its the first time we have seen national Law Enforcement publicly push back against movements that they say make them the enemy. It cites the super bowl halftime show as inflammatory against police. A retired judge Ladoris Cordell who works with Law Enforcement on issues of race argues the messages have been mixed. Beyonce performed never once did she mention the police. However, the imagery is such that and her words and her song was such that they brought up all kinds of racial issues. Reporter that distinction isnt clear to the National Sheriffs association. Their website reads, quote, the senseless killing of four Law Enforcement officers just this week on the heels of the anti Police Entertainment at the super bowl halftime show reminds us that the men and women in Law Enforcement take a solemn over the that includes putting their lives on the line every day to protect our citizens. It shows how blurred the lives have become and shows the difference between black lives matter and Law Enforcement. That cordell hopes it wont get worse before it gets better. This protest represents the dreary state of conversation in this country about race and specifically about racial injustices. Reporter this is a hard topic for anyone. Its hard for police. Its hard for protestors who want change. Its hard as a member of the media to cover. But on the note of conversation, its important that we talk about it because that conversation is ultimately what spurs change.

A pickup truck ends up on top of another car and then propped up against a muni bus. Take a look. Looks like a scene out of a movie but this happened in San Francisco this afternoon on ocean avenue near city college. How this crash happened is still unclear. The driver of the pickup tells us what led up to it. I decided it was a red light and i felt like the truck started going up. And i started smelling gasoline. To get the mess cleared the decision was made to pull the bus out first, then lift the pickup off the car. Took about a halfhour. No one in any of those vehicles was injured. Other bay area headlines now. San jose police have the car they believe was in a deadly hitandrun crash. But they are still looking for the driver.

Kpix 5s devin fehely on the mystery police are now looking to solve. Devin. Reporter yeah. Witnesses say that it appears that body had been there for some time. It was found in the underbrush across the street and they say that there was little left than a skull and some bones. It was a discovery as shocking as it was random. Found a skeleton, then a body. It was skeleton, just bones. It was just like a fossil. Reporter the body was in the underbrush on the other side of this fence. Its not clear how long it had been there. But it was only found after a woman hopped the fence to grab her phone. The female in question here was in some kind of an argument with a boyfriend or a friend who in turn threw her phone over the fence. Okay . She went to go ahead and retrieve her cell phone hopped over the fence and happened upon what appears to be a human body. Reporter investigators believe the body may have belonged to a homeless person whose death went unnoticed and unreported. They are hoping the medical Examiners Office can help them figure out how this person died and if they were the victim of a crime. We are waiting for the coroner report at which time hopefully we can get the cause of death. A lot of time the report gives us an idea if there was foul play involved. Reporter until then that unnamed unclaimed body is at the heart of a mystery. Investigators say they have spoken to some of the Homeless People who live and frequent this area. But they say that they will really be guided, their investigation will, by the findings of that medical examiners report. In san jose, devin fehely, kpix 5. Some bay area scientists want to turn thousands of peoples cell phones into earthquake sensors. New at 6 00 kpix 5s len ramirez shows us the app that could make it possible for a quake warning to happen sooner. Reporter High Definition surveillance cameras now routinely record the terrifying moments when an earthquake strikes. But what if the technology thats already in your hands could be used to warn that an earthquake is coming . Seismologists at ucberkeley say its here now in the form of their new android app called my shake. We want to use the sensors on your phone to record the impacts of an earthquake so that we can understand them. Reporter the app uses the phones motion sensors called accelerometers to record the shaking sending it to the berkeley lab. Researchers hope when enough phones are networked into the system, my shake will be able to send alerts to users in outlying areas giving them a few precious seconds to duck and cover before the shaking starts. If theres a chance it can predict if a big quake is going to happen, i think its worthwhile. Reporter students at san jose state were concerned about privacy issues since their phones could be constantly tracked. But said they would probably still download the app. If you can know within three seconds before it happens, you can probably get under a table or something and save your life. Reporter it could have the greatest impact on users in developing nations where there are no earthquake Early Warning systems but there are millions of smartphones. In san jose, len ramirez, kpix 5.

Firefighters were able to k down the fire in about an h this is one fire in pacifica today at a home on palmetto at 2 30 this afternoon. Firefighters knocked it down in an hour. This is a redtagged house because its near a crumbling cliff. Investigators still trying to determine what sparked that blaze. Even though were in a drought a lot of precious water is being wasted. In fact, mark kelly found out bart is dumping millions of gallons of it right into the sewer system. Its a story you will only see on five. Reporter powell street is barts busiest station. Its also one of the deepest. In the powell street station you look Something Like this. Reporter building the station in the 1960s was no small task. The water table lying only 20 feet below street surface makes San Francisco tunneling something less than a picnic. Reporter crews worked deep underground to build the train station which crosses one of San Franciscos original underground waterways the hayes valley creek. For more than 4 decades through california droughts that precious underground water an average of 65 million gallons every year is dumped into the bay of the. So we are constantly having to pump water out of that station. If we didnt it would flood. Its going into the San Francisco sewer. Reporter manufactures gallons treated and dumped into the bay even though for 20 years, the city has promised to find a use for it. And powell station not the only example of water waste. The u. N. Plaza fountain on Market Street was built on top of an underground creek. But that water isnt used for this fountain. It gets dumped into the sewer. Its not pumped out. Its going to end up messing with the machinery that causes the fountain to run. Reporter from city hall to Moscone Center sump pumps divert thousands of gallons of underground creeks to the sewers. But now a Texas Company called nrg is seriously considering piping the water from powell street bart to their steam plant on jesse street a few blocks away where they produce steam heat for downtown buildings including city hall and nordstrom. Bart would give them the water for free and the city offered a grand to help pull the water out of the tours but theres a hitch. That free water would still have to be treated when they pull the water out of the sewers. The Water Quality has to be modified to allow that to take place for steam. Reporter or they can continue doing what they have already done buy water from hetch hetchy Drinking Water which is low cost. Drinking water is still a bargain in the u. S. Reporter even if nrg moves forward with the plan they will only use 100,000 gallons a day. Thats only about half of the water that bart has to pump out of here every day.

More than a century in the making. Reporter its a trip helen chase has made for years. Going to her favorite chinese restaurant. Hollys mandarin on piedmont. Except this time, its to celebrate her 107th birthday. Her movement might be a bit slow but oh, boy she is sharper than most people. I asked her whats her secret it a long healthy life. If there was a secret, i would tell you. [ laughter ] it would be a secret. Reporter all jokes aside she says its about happiness and having a supportive family. Also, she has never smoked and never had a drink. I have wonderful children, grandchildren. And, um, they keep me young. Reporter helen has two daughters, five grandchildren, and 6 greatgrandchildren. She spent pretty much her entire life in oakland and has seen the changes through the years.

San francisco 69 degrees. Concord san rafael you hit 70. Overnight tonight, another coolish night. Well see some 50s. Low 50s Santa Rosa Healdsburg napa ukiah. Concord 49 degrees. Lets compare the last big phoenix with the one that were in right now. We did have a dry stretch in january and february of 1998 which lasted 17 days. We have eclipsed that this is day 21 of not much rainfall. I want to show you that the el nino weather pattern is still here. But its a relative term because its not here in San Francisco. It is here in seattle. It doesnt guarantee we are going to get rain every day. We want an active storm track aimed toward us. Is there still an active storm track . Absolutely. Storms have kept coming over the past 21 days just not here. This ridge should be down to the south. Instead it has parked itself too far north now steering those storms to the pacific northwest. The storms are coming. We just need this ridge to move to allow the supercharged storms by el nino to make it back to the bay area. That sounds so simple. Heres the problem. Not going to happen over the next week. We have one rain chance. Thats it coming up next wednesday. Doesnt look like much. Look what happens sunday and monday. We are getting warmer. Some of you away from the water may hit 80 on president s day. We do have a chance of rain wednesday and somewhat cooler weather by the middle of next week. So the pieces of the puzzle are all still there. Just the fire hose from Mother Nature a little too far north. We have to kick it back this way. I have noticed all the flowers are starting to bloom. Everything is blooming. We got the rain now we got the sun. Thank you. Well, new at 6 00 San Francisco investing big in landscaping technology. We have been able to do things which we never have been able to even contemplate on the mowing crew before. How these robotic lawnmowers work. Coming up.

R so there is mowing your lawn and then there is mowing San Franciscos parks. Two very different challenges. And as kpix 5s Wilson Walker shows us, the city has rolled out a new weapon. [ beep beep ] when we first got it we were afraid of it. We didnt want to break it. Reporter when it comes to mowing San Franciscos public lawns the future is here. Its agile. It can go anywhere. It doesnt slide. Powerful. Reporter its also really hard not to stare at the thing. Theres a lot of people always asking about it. How it works and usually how much it costs. Reporter this is it. This is the spider ild2 radio controlled slope mower. Ask for it by name. Its made in the Czech Republic and costs about as much as a german luxury sedan about 50,000. So lets get right to the why. Why do you buy this . Well, its all about the citys famous hills. Some. Some of the sites are extreme inclines. Out in the front where the tree is i slid from that tree all the way down to the wall. Reporter over the years work the citys hillsides with line cutters and push mowers cut down more than just the grass t also spit out repeated injuries and even Workers Compensation payments. The this addressed all of those issues. He will accomplish work thats taken other groups of people, you know, days to do. Reporter that doesnt mean anyone will lose his job. Instead its more of a force multiplier allowing the existing staff to do more work in less time. We havent begun to explore the possibilities. Reporter theres no denying its cool. Throttle control. This raises and lowers the height of the cut. This is if theres a drone or something that is interfering with my signal. I can switch to another radio channel. You have drone defense . Yeah. Itch drone at the fence. Every park i go to theres always at least three or four people who stop and take pictures. Im surprised i havent caused any Car Accidents yet. People slow down, as to be. Reporter so beyond the cool factor and the steep price tag this machine is about getting the most of out of your increasingly precious park space by solving a problem as old as the hills. Reporter its got credibility in the land of sourdough and cracked crab. Reporter in San Francisco, Wilson Walker, kpix 5. Got to get one. The city started with one quickly decided to buy another.

Jeff samardzija joined the team. They have defense and depth. It got shortstop Brandon Crawfords attention. Its exciting. We like it. We picked up some depth know of our whole roster. Our pitching staff, we got two of probably the top five free agents in the class of the season. To be able to add another number one pitcher and probably on most teams could be a really good number 2 pitcher on our team he is going to be number 3 in samardzija and then weave peavy and cain at the back end of the rotation, thats an impressive staff.

As a player, its not like we werent trying in the odd year. Exact ily. I think the injury bug has got us in those odd years but you know, hopefully, i think the goal for this whole team is to stay healthy and if we can do that, i think the skys the limit. When you have made the run you have made and come as far as youve come, being homegrown on top of that playing for your hometown team, you ever sit back and go, man is this really happening to me . I think this off season i did that a little bit just thinking about the extension and, you know, what kind of winning a couple of awards. At the end of this contract ill be a giant for 10 years. I think thats something i never dreamed of as a little kid wanting to play shortstop for the giants. How about that. Brandon crawford had good numbers coming off, then he had the extension. A lot of fat contracts and he has a new kid. And a man bun. And a man bun. Got it all. Got that going for him. [ laughter ] captions by caption colorado comments captioncolorado. Com whatever.
