The Rideshare Company uber says it has deactivated the account of a man now facing charges in the death of a young girl. That driver, 57yearold syed muzzafar, of union city, is now charged with vehicular manslaughter and gross negligence and failure to yield to pedestrians in a crosswalk. The accident itself has reignited the rideshare debate. This afternoon, a passerby offered a brief prayer for 6 yearold sophia liu just a few feet from where she was struck and killed on new years eve. I need a witness, who is a witness . Reporter that driver was a Service Provider for uber until tonight. Its one of the many Ridesharing Companies that operates in San Francisco but are not regulated by the city. They are regulated by the cpuc. The sfmta only regulates taxi drivers. I took 40 hours of classes registered with the police department, registered with muni, and was drilled and grilled on the safety of pedestrians and crosswalks and bicycle lanes. Reporter late last year, the state Public Utilities commission did lay down some ridesharing rules but its unclear when and how those are being applied to massive fleets of individual drivers. We dont know if these people from uber or flywheel or lyft or moustache, we dont know their qualifications. Reporter tonight uber said, the driver was not providing services on the uber system during the time of the accident. But that raises another question. What exactly does providing services actually mean . Is it en route to a pickup . Is it when a passenger is actually in the car . So far, none of this has been untangled, making issues of liability vague at best. But its a new world on city streets. And no one is exactly sure how it is going to work. Ridesharing like these are pretty new. And were trying to work with these companies and to work with the cpuc to coordinate our efforts. Theres no mystery when it comes to an actual taxi driver. They are employees, liable and ensured the moment they step into the car even with no passengers. The state Public Utilities commission will review its ridesharing policies this year. Theres an arrest in another deadly new years eve crash in San Francisco. This one in the Crocker Amazon neighborhood. Police say 69yearold [ non english language ] ran a stop sign at rolph and naples street and rammed his truck into an 86 yearold man in the crosswalk. The state dmv says the man and muzzafar both have clean driving records. New video tonight we have Surveillance Footage of the arsonist who torched the chinese consulate in San Francisco. It happened just before 9 30 last night at 1450 laguna street. Flames engulfed the front of the building. Our da lin is outside the burned consulate with the video that captures the crime. Da. Reporter allen, some pretty serious damage to the front entrance. Take a look here. The fbi is leading the investigation and has some solid leads. At least two Surveillance Video captured the incident. The question is who did it and why. A surveillance camera across the street from the chinese consulate shows at least one person setting the front doors on fire last night. A spokesman for the consulate says their surveillance camera above the entrance also captured the attack. After the fire started, you see a person driving off in a minivan. Poured two buckets of gasoline on the front door of the consulate and then set it on fire. Reporter its hard to make out the attacker in this footage but the consulate Spokesman Says their footage has a better shot of the arsonist. He wouldnt release any information about the attacker. We strongly condemn this despicable act. Reporter a couple of workers were inside the building at the time. No one was hurt. The flames blew out the two front doors and damaged the balcony. The Spokesman Says the attacker also threw a bottle through this window. San Francisco Police have since stepped up patrols with an officer watching the consulate around the clock. The fbi says there are no National Threats and no one has claimed responsibility. We have not received any responsibility notes or demands from anyone at this time. Reporter the federal government is also concerned and has reached out to the chinese consulate. We take this incident very seriously and we are working with the fbi and local authorities to investigate and apprehend the perpetrators. Reporter the consulate was also attacked in march of 2008 when someone set the buildings back gates on fire. Demonstrators were protesting over the beijing olympics due to chinas human rights record in tibet. The fbi does not know if the two arson attacks are connected. At this time, no motive and no suspects. And they still dont know if this attack is politically motivated. By the way, the chinese consulate did not release their Surveillance Footage to the public. Live in San Francisco, im da lin, kpix 5. And we can tell you despite the fire damage, the chinese consulate remains open for normal operations.

Reporter San Jose Police found the man dead in front of a home on the 1600 block of san antonio street. The victim was in his 30s and had been shot at least once. There were no witnesses. Its not the way we wanted to start off 2014. Reporter Police Spokesman Albert Morales says homicide numbers in previous years were high even though the first murder happened much later in january. Bottom line, homicides are nearly impossible to predict. What do you want to say to the pessimists who look at this and say, here we are second day of the new year, with a homicide rate here we go again. Well, i think the one key thing that we would like to encourage people is not to look too much into it. Three years running of 40 plus, no longer can call it an anomaly. Reporter cops started quitting when the city cut pay and benefits. Soon after the crime rate skyrocketed. The city is now trying to curb the loss of officers by restoring a 10 pay cut. The citizens have to ask themselves, do they want this to be the new norm where san jose has on average 40 to 50 homicides per year and theyre okay with that, or they say, you know what, were going in the wrong direction and we need to make changes. Reporter san jose has been losing 100 officers a year either to retirement or other departments. Recruitnent is ongoing.
