Change. Thats been so many back door dealings. I have said for a long time i believe pg e has the key to the back door of the puc. Its not acceptable. And because of that, i believe it cost 8 people their lives. Reporter san bruno mayor jim ruanes office is poring over some 65,000 newly released emails between pg e executives and the California Public utilities commission. The mayor says it previously released emails suggesting lax enforcement by state regulators and poor maintenance by the utility led to a massive 2010 natural gas pipeline explosion and fire that destroyed dozens of homes and killed eight people. Very cozy too cozy relationship between the utility and the regulator. And we are finding out how deep it goes and how high up. Reporter while pg e hailed the release of the documents today as a victory for government transparency, the utility has long resisted calls to release more information about its relationship with state regulators in the aftermath of the explosion. In a prepared statement, pg es ceo said the vast majority of the 65,000 communications have been completely appropriate but in those few instances when they were not we took immediate and definitive action. The mayor says he believes the release of the emails is an important first step to understanding the nature and scope of the problem. He would also like to see an independent monitor appointed to provide what he says is much needed oversight of the puc. The fact that eight people died, the neighborhood was devastated, wasnt that criminal we thought in the beginning of the evening was an accident. It was not an accident. It could have been prevented. Reporter the mayor says there is a team of attorneys poring over the documents. Because there are so many documents it could be until monday at the earliest before they have a sense of whats in the emails. In san bruno, devin fehely, kpix 5. State and federal investigators are also zeroing in on this case. Former cpuc president Michael Peevey had his home searched on tuesday. Investigators took telephones, computers, and some storage devices. Agents also paid a visit to the home of a former pg e vice president. The state Attorney Generals Office says it has to do with alleged judge shopping. Super bowl 50 could pump tons of cash into the bay area economy next year. But one of the mayors in arizona says dont believe all the big numbers being thrown around. Kpix 5s joe vazquez is live for us in phoenix. He tells us why the math can get fuzzy. Joe . Reporter yeah, veronica. You see so many people flooding into the host city here in phoenix, next year in the bay area. No doubt millions of dollars will flow with them. Whats in question is how many million. Among the throngs enjoying the pregame super bowl festivities is ike shehadeh mission. He owns a sandwich joint in San Francisco. He has a couple of shops in phoenix, as well. Im checking to see how its going to be if its going to be huge, then we know its going to be amazingly gigantic if the bay. Reporter ike is about one of 100,000 people coming from out of state a million altogether staying in hotels, buying merchandise, spending money. The phoenix Host Committee estimates there will be a 550 million Economic Impact to the state economy. Really . Half a billion dollars . Well, not everyone agrees with that figure. One noted study says its half that amount, another says its a tenth. This is a third super bowl in this state. Reporter mayor jerry wires of glendale says his city will spend millions for security on game day but never gets the money back. To be clear, if i could have a super bowl every year, i would do it. I would do it in a heartbeat. With a caveat. That our legislature will step up, pass a law that will allow us to recover our Public Safety costs. Reporter the mayor caused quite a ruckus when he suggested maybe the big game should not come back. He petitioned the legislature to reimburse glendale but lawmakers declined. As for the Economic Impact on ikes . The jury is still out. Overall the super bowl is helping out a little bit so far. Well see how as the weekend comes, well know more friday night, saturday night. And then sunday after the game to see what kind of impact it is having. Reporter the reward for the mayor of glendale for raising this issue . He was not invited to the super bowl. But he told me late today that in fact he did manage to get an invitation. He will be inside to watch the game. Veronica, no doubt about it, there are parallels to phoenix and the bay area. The majority of these kind of events will take place in the city of San Francisco. And, of course, santa clara is the city thats hosting the stadium. Joe vazquez life for us in arizona, thank you. Tonight were getting our first real world look at the exclusive and very elusive tesla model x. Video has surfaced of the allelectric suv being road tested in alameda. Kpix 5s len ramirez on why the model is stirring up intrigue in the car industry. Len. Reporter well, a lot of people want to see what this car really looks like. And this video was shot on a control phone by a man who was out skateboarding. He happened to be a tesla enthusiast and recognized what he saw. [ screeching ] reporter the video now gone viral in the automotive world shows a careening suv being test driven on vacant runways in alameda believed to be the first spy video of the long awaited tesla model x and the first time a model x has ever been spotted the running in the wild. The truck is flat. Reporter rob knows something about cars. [ car starts ] reporter the san jose tech analyst and automotive enthusiast has placed an order for a model x. That looks like it. Theres not another car that really looks like the tesla and its clearly electric. There are no engine sounds. So the other cars the tesla is coming out with are all smaller than the tesla s. This is clearly bigger. Reporter its a leap for the company which has been delayed in bringing the suv to market. Its supposed to be in stores by now so its delayed. So it looks like they are getting close to releasing it. Reporter the stock has been down due to lower gas prices and the republican majority in congress which doesnt favor the subsidies which have helped keep tesla in business. It is a nice car. Reporter but video is spurring interest in the 70,000 suv which customers like tom mcgovern had their doubts they would ever see. It shows that its a real car, its come out and it gets me excited. I think its going to be an incredible vehicle. I have friends that work at tesla and they say it has all kinds of cool features they cant talk about but they say its going to be well worth the wait. Reporter now, heres a bit of intrigue. Some analysts say that tesla may have staged the whole thing hoping to do that testing out in alameda where there might be more people around, certainly they have access to other more private test tracks hoping that it would turn viral, which it did. So far tesla isnt commenting. In san jose, len ramirez, kpix 5. Nothing is ever by chance. The Company Founder says part of the delay in getting it to market is the difficulty in mass producing many of the model x parts. Theres been another Security Breach at mineta san jose airport. 39yearold jose mendoza was arrested late last night. An Airport Security guard spotted him walking on a ground vehicle road. The guard confronted him and mendoza jumped an outer fence. He was transported to the hospital for minor injuries from scaling the fence. Were told he never made it close to the tarmac. Another new lead in the gruesome discovery of body parts stuffed in a suitcase in San Francisco. Police have now released these surveillance photos of a man they say is a person of interest. He is described as a white man age 50 to early 60s last seen wearing a pinstriped baseball hat and blue and orange jacket. Transients we believe he is transient, its difficult to try to locate this person. The suitcase containing body parts was found in the 11th and mission area on wednesday afternoon. Other body parts were found nearby in some garbage cans. They are still working on identifying the victim. Dozens of people displaced by a huge Apartment Fire in San Francisco have a new place to stay. At least for the next few days. Kpix 5s da lin joins us live from the mission district. Da, right now these people have nothing but the clothes on their backs. Reporter yeah. Nothing at all. In fact, their Hotel Vouchers expired this morning so now some survivors will be moving in here.

Only 13 but this fire made you grow up a lot quicker. It made me think a lot. It made me think a lot. Reporter this video shows him and his dog using the fire escape to run away from the flames wednesday night. Two days later he and his parents still dont have a plan. Kind of worried. I dont know whats going to happen, where were going to live. So reporter they will be bunking with other families at the Salvation Army shelter until they can find new apartments. Its going to be tough buy im glad we have a roof over our heads. Reporter some of them waited at the front door while volunteers inside set up the shelter. No belongings, no money, and nowhere else to go. I cry myself to sleep every night. Cant sleep hard. Not knowing where youre going to be say in a couple of days or a week. Reporter the city promises to help the survivors find affordable housing. The plan is to house them here for a week. Theres no privacy. We wish we could put everybody into individual homes. Somebody was nice enough to donate clothes and, um, food for him. Reporter alessandro hopes the temporary shelter will soon lead to a longterm solution. Im a little scared but i think were going to get through this. Reporter the Fire Department still does not know what caused that fire. And neither does the Property Owner. I sat down with him for about an hour this afternoon the Property Owner. Would not do an oncamera interview but he says he feels for these tenants now left homeless. But tenant after tenant complained that the smoke detectors didnt go off. Did you ask about this . What did the Property Owner say about that . He says firefighters actually inspected that Building Back in last august and it shows that he was in compliance. In fact, he gave me this documentation right here. It shows that he indeed did pass the inspection. In fact, the Fire Department confirms that there were no Code Violations in that building when they checked. In terms of why these fire alarms didnt go off, he doesnt know why. He says he doesnt know why the fire escapes that people were having problems using the fire escapes. Veronica .

Reporter bicycle advocates and Business Owners say what they think about the new bike lane for the street bike lanes that would eliminate 110 Parking Spaces. Anything that would affect these shops such as removal of Parking Spaces, i am directly opposed to. Reporter the concern, fewer Parking Spaces would mean fewer customers. But bicyclists say the street needs to be safer. Polk street is one of the highest injury quarters in the whole city and, um, you know, we need to support the merchants, but preventing injuries and deaths is more important. Reporter dan owns the flip Furniture Store at the corner of polk and green. If you are going to ride in an urban area where theres going to be cars, buses and trucks, be careful and Pay Attention to the laws. Reporter while covering this store bike after bike after bike routinely ran through stop signs. This kid ran the sign without a helmet.

The irs is calling it an epidemic. Viewer angela checked her phone messages last week and heard this. The reason of this call is to inform you that the irs is filing a lawsuit against you. Reporter the recording went on to tell angela to call the irs immediately and, of course, it provided a phone number but as you might have guessed, it was not a legitimate irs number. The agency received nearly 300,000 complains about this type of call over the past two years. And without fail, the person on the other end says you owe money and if you dont pay immediately, often through a green dot money pack prepaid card you will be arrested but angela was skeptical. I think of somebody suing you, it would be a real live person. So you know, its just this call is designed to go out to as many phone numbers as quickly as possible and to freak people out. Reporter people who study scam psychology says those heightened emotions drown out any kind of logical thinking. It freaks people out preventing them from putting the brakes on the scam. Con artists will soon be losing one of their tools. The company that makes the green dot money pack card said it will stop selling them next month because of the fraud problems. No one expects this will stop scammers.

Often times the real people on the other end of the line if they were going to be at your house and arrest you, the irs will not call or email you. If they want you that bad, the real irs has a very polite way of coming to your attention and it doesnt involve some woman screaming at you on the phone to send them money. They are not going to come to your house. They wont show up at your door even if they threaten that. I love the irs. Did i ever mention that to you . They are the nicest people in the world. Yeah.

Um, how does it drive is this. Why dont you drive it and see . Hang on. Here we go. Oh, my goodness. I cannot believe this is a truck. Wow reporter on the outside it looks like a typical delivery truck. But its v8 engine and drive train have been replaced with a battery and motors down from 500 to 200horsepower. Reporter the result is sports carlike instant acceleration and power. To stop the truck, you actually just let off the gas and the braking kicks in and brings the vehicle t a stop. You use one pedal. Reporter garbage trucks typically burn 14,000 gallons of fuel a year and spend thousands of dollars replacing the brakes. When you brake in the traditional sense you just are throwing money away. Youre just taking the energy that you got by burning fuel which you paid for and you just are just throwing it a way as heat in the brakes. We instead use electric motors as generators and put that energy back in the battery so you can use it next time you accelerate. Reporter a Waste Management company in santa rosa has begun converting their fleet to meet tough new emissions standards and save money. Wright speed expects to grow 10 times bigger and have more than 200 employees by 2018. And he is a cofounder of tesla with elon musk. Is he jealous of you . I dont think so. He loves what were doing. Its great. Everybody does. Reporter imagine a few where garbage trucks run cleaner faster cheaper and more quitely. Whats not sexy about that . The range on the battery is about 40 miles. After that the range stender kicks in. That is actually a jet turbine engine powered by natural gas. That lets you drive the vehicle around pretty much all day. The cost of the conversion is about 200,000. The company says you can recover that cost in about 4 years on the fuel and savings on brake maintenance. In san jose, kiet do, kpix 5. The future is now.

The Golden State Warriors have won 13 games since the last time it rained. The San Jose Sharks have won 7 games since the last time it rained. When did it rain last in christmas eve. Its been 37 days since we have had a widespread rainfall coming up in the bay area. Guess what . Were going to add 7 more. It will be 44 days before the rain finally moves in. Its raining in new mexico. Its raining in utah. Its raining in san diego. Its raining in phoenix right now with 1. 5 of rain on the ground in the valley of the sun. But that h just anchored over top of us like a deflector shield keeping the rain away. It will do that and more over the weekend with highs in the mid60s, some record highs especially in the deep south bay down toward gilroy and up toward napa. You may hit 75 degrees. Next week a pattern change. This high will ever so slowly push to the south. By the end of next week its a fiveday long process, the ridge will be gone.
