Back to the desk. Weve been following this since 4 30 this morning. Its eviction day. Just a short time ago, San Jose Police arrived at one of the biggest homeless camps in the country. Ktvus Christien Kafton is out there this morning with what is happening right now to the hundreds of people who have been living in whats called the jungle. Reporter San Jose Police are on scene, have shut down one lane of traffic in both directions on story lane. Lets give you some of the a view of the latest developments. Some homeless advocates have arrived out here in the last halfhour. Now as the sun has come up, were starting to get a sense of the scope the crews will be work facing today. This is the area known as the jungle. Now that the sun is up, you can see the area that the the areas the city crews need to clean u the crews could be here between now and 8 00 to begin the process of removing all of this all of these items here in the area known as the jungle. Weve seen streams of people leaving the area. Some have left quietly but some say this is a major disruption and the city has tried to clear the area several times in the past. This time they will be installing a 1,000foot long fence along story road and restricting vehicle access to discourage the Homeless Community from returning. They have to clear the area, they say, because they say it presents a health and safety hazard. Well go into the site and begin to remove major structures, debris, Hazardous Waste and biowaste. Weve gone fought city and to the city and asked the city for campgrounds to set up, some place where we can guarantee everybodys security. Reporter homeless advocates say theres not enough beds in shelters to serve the homeless. There were 100, 200 people out here still morning. Folks are still trying to remove their items from their encampment. Police said they could cite those who have not left for trespassing. One of the big issues that we need to talk with the city Homeless Outreach leaders is what happens to the Homeless People who are out here, one of the questions, could they possibly move to another location if, as they are saying, there are not enough beds ford the homeless communities. Where do the people go, thats something well be talking with them about later this morning. The cleanup expected to take about two weeks. Well continue to stay on scene and monitor the developments here at the jungle as they develop this morning. For now, were live in san jose, back to you. All right. It seems pretty peaceful, though, out there but a lot of work to be done. 7 06. Meantime, the bay area still cleaning up after the biggest, strongest storm since 2012. The wet weather was really dangerous for one family in antioch. Look. The roof of their apartment was under repair, partially fell down yesterday afternoon. A woman was in the house at the time but she wasnt hurt. Her husband works nearby. He came rushing home to find that big hole in the living room ceiling. Im just glad my kids werent around when the roof fell in because, you know, it would have been a bad thing to have Something Like that to happen to him. Firefighters say the water just pooled. A tarp gave way and then a plank crashed through the rooch. Despite that damage you see there, the family they can still stay in their home. As a lot of people start making repairs from the damage caused by the storm, California Homeowners, you are being warned. Watch out for scams by unlicensed contractors. The state licensing board says only hire licensed contractors for storm repair work because they are bonded and they have to carry Workers Compensation Insurance Coverage for their employees. Tree trimmers who work on trees taller than 15 feet, they also have to have a license. Meanwhile, San Francisco city crews hope to finish repair work on a massive sinkhole sometime today. It opened up yesterday morning at 6th avenue and lake street in the richmond district. The sink home quickly through to a 20 bay 20foot crater. Ten feet deep. City inspectors are checking to see if its connected to another one in the same neighborhood last year. A lot of it is da to aging infrastructure. Some of these pipes are 100 years old. Now, its still unclear if the old pipe burst before or after the road caved in yesterday. People living in the area are still without water this morning, though, they are waiting for the repairs to be complete. One person posted this ad on craigslist to have a little fun with the sinkhole. The aerial shot shows how big the sinkhole is. But the sign says, sinkhole for rent. The ad says, it just opened up and its one of the best deals in San Francisco close to mass transit, coffee shops and golden gate park. It also points out the sinkhole already has a sunroof which makes it a great spot for entertaining. If you are planning to get a flu shot or you already have, heres something to think about the centers for Disease Control says the vaccine not be as affective this year. Brian flores is in alameda with the reasons why. This will be alarming to a lot of people. Reporter it might be. You go to any pharmacy in the bay area just like this one here in alameda and you see the signs saying you should get your flu shot. Some promoting no cost flu shots. While that still may be the case, the cdc did a sampling of those who got the flu from october to november, what they found was that the flu vaccine for this year may not be a good match to combat this current strain. This was through an vig sent out by the cdc earlier to doctors across the country. Again, they sampled those who got the flew. What they found was that the vaccine was only good for half of the cases suggesting that the virus is different than what was planned for. They say the vaccine is typically created based on which storms of the flu spread the year previous. Now, the cdc says, however, it appears it may not effect this years flu, they still recommend getting the flu shot because it will offer severe protections from severe complications like hospitalization and death. It will be effective against the strain that did not change or mutate. The drdz is warning doctors to stock up on tamiflu and relenza just in case the season gets doctor worse, especially women who are pregnant, kids and the elderly get a flu shot.

Orion will endure temperatures of 4,000 degrees fahrenheit putting the hightech heat shield to the test. Its the heat shield that was developed here at the Research Center.

It was captured on cell phone video. It shows a plain clothes officer putting garner in a chokehold, even though choke holds have been banned by the new York Police Department for more than two decades. On the video, garner is heard screaming, i cant breathe. The grand jury made up of 23 people decided that the Police Officer should not face criminal charges. You guys do your job last night in oakland, about 300 people protested against that grand jury decision. They marched toward the Oakland Police headquarters but they were turned away by a line of riot police. Protesters marched through downtown and the piedmont business district. I cant believe i have to be out here yes. It seems black lives dont matter. People are being killed without due process. That march ended at city hall. Police report no problems. The demonstration last night was a lot more peaceful than the ferguson protest last month. That one led to 169 arrests and several businesses were vandalized. The protests over what happened in new york are scheduled for today at uc berkeley at noontime and at oaklands Frank Ogawa Plaza at 5 00 p. M. A group of stanford students protested last night in palo alto. Photos of the demonstrations were posted on twitter. The group consisted of 100 protesters.

Now, during rush hour last night in San Francisco. A small group of people staged what they call a diein at the cable car turnaround at powell and market street. One demonstrator told ktvu it was important for him to be there. He says he wanted to show that black lives matter. After wards, several protesters blocked traffic on market street. The largest demonstrations last night happened at some of the most famous landmarks in new york city. Thousands of protesters gathered across the city to voice their anger. They blocked access to the lincoln tunnel, stopped traffic at a major highway and marched across the brooklyn bridged a midnight. They also demonstrated at times square and tried to disrupt the Tree Lighting ceremony at rockefeller cemetery. Protesters chanted no justice, no tree. New york Police Arrested 83 people throughout the night. President obama at a washington, d. C. Event honoring nativeamerican tribes also talked about the chokehold case. He said theres a bigger issue of minorities not trusting the police. The concern on the part of too many minority communities that Law Enforcement is not working with them and dealing with them in a fair way. Now, u. S. Attorney eric holder has ordered a federal civil rights investigation into the death of garner. Although the Police Officer who applied that chokehold is legally cleared for now, he may still lose his job for violating the Police Departments ban on choke holds.

I want to mention that westbound 580 at 980 we had a crash there a little while ago, thats messed up traffic. Its backed up all the way to highway 13. So today, 580 is slower than it normally is. 880 might be a good option for you. As we push into san jose, all of a sudden, 85, 280 and 101 are also very slow. So its not a great day but if you are comparing it to yesterday, i think you will like today better. 7 48. Lets go to steve in the weather center. Its a great day, sal. Yes, sir. Better than yesterday, by far. No kidding. We still get some rain, though, and a lot of fog reports, especially down too morgan hill. We do get a couple of breaks in the clouds.

Very mild air mass. 40 in tahoe. Snow level is up mainly about 7,000 feet. Warm system here. You can see the moisture just keeps streaming in off the west southwest. Some areas will continue to get some scattered rain today. Our next system coming in will be weaker. It will give us rain but the heavier amounts will be to the north. There will be far less to the south. Probably start friday afternoon and go into early, early saturday. But the hear heavier amounts will be to the north. Theres the rain tomorrow, about 1 00.

Weve seen streams of people leaving the area this morning. Some quietly, some have been angry saying this is a major disruption and they are being removed from the only home they have. Theyve tried to clear the area several times. This time well be installing a thousand feet of fencing along story road and restricting vehicle access to try to discourage them from returning. They have to clear the area they say because it presents a health and safety hazard. This encampment represents an unsafe, unstable place. We dont want people coming back here. This site will be closed going forward. If they have facilities to use, it wouldnt be this mess. Look at. It wouldnt be like this. There are some that are really clean. There are.

At least 100 or so people gathered to watch orion blast off into space this morning, but there was a series of setbacks at the Kennedy Space center in florida. At first it was a boat that strayed into the launch area. Then the kids that were the problem and finally nasa was troubled by a valve issue. Thats when the decision was made to scrap the launch for today. Very disappointed but i understand that theres safety concerns i hope they will figure out what was wrong and it will go off. Reporter this test flight will be the first step in nasas yurnny to mars. The hope is orion could one daycarery humans to could carry humans to the red planet. Orion will make an important re entry through the earths atmosphere. Thats when the capsule will get the trial by fire. Orion will endure temperatures of about 4,000 degrees fahrenheit. That will put the hightech heat shield to the test. Its a heat shield developed at the Ames Research senter. Once it reepters the atmosphere, the heat shield will compress the air in front of it, generate a very strong shock and that create as lot of Heat Transfer to the heat shield. Reporter this whole test flik will take about four and a half hours and orion will splash down into the pacific oath about 600 miles ocean about 600 miles southwest of san diego.
