Here will allow that same black girl to say oh, i need to make new knowledge in the world. Reporter and the fatherdaughter duo who took eclipse watching to new heights. Good evening. How many times have we shown you video of the same type of crime . Thieves, smashing their way into stores like this highend heist at Louis Vuitton in walnut creek . How about discount cigarettes in concord, which was hit three times in the span of a month. These crimes are brazen and done without fear of getting caught. State prosecutors say they have linked them both to one gang from oakland. But thats not all. Tay say the same threeman crew is accused of burglary or attempted burglary on about 20 Liquor Stores and smoke shops across more than a dozen bay area cities. Thats just in our backyard. So the same group also stole about 120,000 worth of chanel purses from a nordstrom. That happened in san diego. Who was able to tie all of these crimes together. Reporter the crime spree sounds like a plot out of the hollywood blockbuster movie. But as they got into the case, she realized that sometimes the facts, they are even crazier than fiction. Detective jenna colemeister has been with the department for 16 years. Starting as a beat cop working her way up. I really started liking the Financial Crimes where i went to the detectives and worked the Financial Crime desk. Reporter she ended up on the district attorneys safe streets task force. And that is how some of these pieces in all the robberies started coming together. After the conversation with concord police. The detective there was seeing all the Cigarette Store burglaries that were happening at night. Reporter and then Louis Vuitton in walnut creek was hit in last october and you guessed it. The suspect vehicles and the descriptions matched the Cigarette Store burglaries. And that is when she knew this was all connected. We started to Pay Attention to anybody that was hitting highend designer purse stores and Merchandise Stores and cigarettes because this crew was targeting the same type of stores. Reporter over the next few months, she and other Task Force Members tracked smash and grabs. From the peninsula to the Central Valley and up towards sacramento. Plus a designer handbag robbery as far away as san diego. It was the same thing every time and the same people every time and the same vehicles every time. Reporter she says it was as if they never thought they would get caught. And a lot of the information we gathered were offered to us. Reporter like this music video she said the suspects posted on youtube, featuring a stolen jeep that was very similar to one involved in a highspeed police chase where the suspects got away. They kind of made it easy for us just through social media, youtube. You know, they made the choice to share information that we ultimately used against them to hold them accountable. Reporter from start to finish, the entire investigation only took about four months. Oh, its fun. Its the funnest job in the world to see that peek are taking advantage of others. Reporter one suspect is behind bars. Walnut creek police say they are not going to stop until all the suspects are brought to justice. Repeat crimes have become a major headache for an oakland donut shop that has been hit four times in less than a year. They share the video with us from the latest robbery caught on camera. You can see them rip out the cash register. Another will appear to be carrying a golf club. This happened on march 1 where they tell us shes worried she wont be able to retain staff if crime like this continues. So there is an effort to tackle crimes like this at the state level where just yesterday, they announced more than half a dozen bills designed to fight organized retail crime. All right, lets turn now to our weather. The south bays Muslim Community could not have asked for Better Weather to celebrate, marking the end of the month of ramadan. Its one of the spots that hit 80 degrees. So lets get right to meteorologist darren peck. And i know im not the only one loving this warmup, darren . This is probably top of mind for anybody who has been outside today. Its been spectacular just to show you where we are today. Pick out your part of the bay and a lot of these numbers are on the verge of 80 or at it and it was 81 degrees down in the south bay. Just a quick review. Watch how dramatic this will be as this is today and we will lose those numbers and ill bring in saturdays daytime highs. Yeah. So that is a lot of 50s on here or the upper 50s and the few low 60s. But it will be cooler by the time we get there. So make the most of tomorrow. Tomorrow, its going to be just like today. Maybe a degree or two warmer. The way the colder air is about to get transported our way, youll see that big massive blue air thats showing up on saturday. Whats coming up along that and look at that as a whole, there is rain. So it will be widespread rain for saturday and mainly saturday morning. So when we get back together again in the complete forecast, well take a look at the systems.

We are talking about Kelsey Whitmer who we first met back in 2016 when she played for the so foe ma stompers. Two years ago whitmer made history as the first woman to sign with an mlb Partner League team. She inked a deal with the fairy hawks. Then some of her gear from that season is actually in the Baseball Hall of fame in cooperstown, new york. Now she is set to play with the ballers. As for the other two. Why am i saying as .

All right, still ahead. Using her unique position to amplify black voices. The powerful new museum in San Francisco and the trail blazer women who put it all together.

Its going to be a pup by graduation. Well take a look at the training a new exhibit at the museum in San Francisco aims to amplify black voices and challenge stereotypes. And the curator of the exhibit will have their own unique story. She spoke about the importance of providing a space for black artists. Reporter climbing up. Its hard work. But for the curator kim jo lee, its worth it. She goes to work every day knowing shes one of the rare black women in positions of leadership at museums.

And when you come in, you are stepping into so many different kinds of experiences all at once, and not only in the ways of which youre seeing on the walls, but also the folks who will work here, right . So my presence here will allow that same black girl to say oh, i get to make new knowledge in the world and gather these things together and think of how they are collected. Reporter one such theme is the diversity of the black experience. As displayed, our exhibition entitled unruly navigations. As they explain, the unique elements of each display such as the black licorice that she wanted to emphasize how the simplicity of the common items, even candy, can provide a deeper perspective on the perception and the journey of movement. I was hoping to provide a platform for artists that are really thinking about how you move through the complications of history. Whether it will be national or International History or personal history. Reporter in many ways, their rule at the museum of the african side in San Francisco, they are making their own history. According to the foundation survey, only 4 of the curators in museums are black. Within what small percentage, black females will make up an even smaller fraction. That is why when visitors experience the museum, whether through the exhibits or the art opportunities, it will bring them great joy. And being a part of this total building of the exhibits that i saw, its just closer. Reporter another thing they chose to include, utilizing the cultural ingredients of coconut drops to illustrate Economic Growth in her community. She wants to show the visitors even the simplest items could be interpreted through a lens of empowerment. The black experience is not unwith thing, but that there are these tethers that will tie those experiences together across time and across geographies. Reporter and she is honored to be a bridge in that effort. The unruly navigations exhibit will run until september 1. Tickets run just 15 for adults and kids under 12 will get in free.

Tonight on the cbs evening news, historic new rules to keep our Drinking Water safe. Norah odonnell has a preview. The fight to protect americans from forever chemicals in their Drinking Water. How the newen that cards from the epa could save thousands of people. Why Water Companies say it will cost billions. That and more headlines tonight on the cbs evening news. And when we come back, tornadoes in flooding, battering the gulf coast with a from texas to florida and several cities along the gulf coast are being slammed with torrential rain, flooding tornadoes. One person in mississippi has died from the storm. A flash flood emergency was declared in the new orleans area where many roads are under water and buildings and homes are damaged. Here is a look at the flooding in mobile alabama. Back here in the bay area, things are much different. We are enjoying all the sun from today and tomorrow and then things change our way mildly. Well get one more day. That will be just as nice as this view out the window right now and a couple degrees warmer. So we will see more people get into the low 80s tomorrow and then friday, it is all going to change. Is that the terminology . This is like a classic example of that and especially when we look at the saturday forecast. Lets bring up the virtual map. The first thing i want to do is show you how nice tomorrow will be because i showed you the dramatic numbers just a second ago. You still have one more day where it is going to be spectacular. So here are tomorrows daytime highs where we start to see more 80s showing up. Whether it is the north bay. The city will probably come in close to 70 tomorrow. But look inland. Go to those numbers for like concord over there with 75 if fremont and the numbers in the upper 70s down in redwood city. Once again, the low 80s in the south bay. Thats thursday. And thursday is the peak. Friday, takes about 15 degrees off of all these numbers and nobody is getting out of the upper 50s for those highs. And the system is getting organized where they will get their act together in a hurry to kind of see that development up here and how fast that will develop and how good their aim is. Over the next three days where they will form into a beautiful area of low pressure and just when they would get to our latitude that it will make the hard left turn and come right at us. Well be right under the center of that thing as we would get into saturday afternoon and as we have seen over the past couple of storms, that is where your chances to see the isolated thunderstorms. Before we get to that and that leading edge, which will most likely have the most impressive part of the rain and here is why i would say that as we would watch it come on shore on saturday morning, that were going to find ourselves right under that main band and the leading edge, getting to the cold front where you would get your widespread steady rain. Do you see the time out there . That is saturday and real early. Well be under the best part of that in the predawn hours of saturday and the majority of rain that this thing will have for us will be done before we get to sunrise on saturday. But when we get into saturday afternoon, it is still here and now were right in the center of it as you can see the clockwise rotation to this and right in the middle of it as it will come on shore. Watch it again just a little bit closer with your saturday morning. We might even notice a few light showers on friday night into the north bay where it wont be much with that saturday morning leading edge that will get us through about 5 00, 6 00 in the morning. And when we would get into the afternoon, right back out here, look at that spin, center of the whole thing that will come overhead with those areas of orange in there. These are the locations that are moving through here getting us into saturday where we are still in the late morning. By the time that gets here. But it will stay with us through the remainder of saturday afternoon and that is where you would have your best bet to get some of these isolated thunderstorms. If we want to play it through saturday and sunday, then we need to lose a little bit of that resolution and going beyond the forecast models to see it and still see that it is there. By sunday afternoon, it is gone and that will get us into sunday for the later part of the day. An inch of rain out of this. So that is pretty good for them to do that and it is fairly impressive where it is also impressive from how much colder were going to get. This will probably put in that light dusting of snow that it wont be as much as the last system, it wouldnt be that significant, but it will be cold enough. We will get a light dusting of snow probably once again and that you can see it back here in the 50s. Sunday, we are going to start noting them clearing with a chance for scattered showers on sunday and monday and were done and the middle of next week, we have made it back up into the low to mid70s again. So it will not be like that 80degree day that we have got today or tomorrow, but it will be close. Still above average. Thank you. Still ahead, its a daddydaughter date nearly three miles high in the sky. Their unique view of the Solar Eclipse. you made a cow actually its a piggy bank. My inspiration to start saving.
