Rob thank you very much. [applause] rob the diving headfirst was the easy part, it is getting right side of that is difficult. Thank you very much. I was hired after the agenda was set, so i have done light lifting and maybe one of the easiest assignments i have had, to interview Major General John Singlaub, an American Hero and a man that has had a very distinguished career. Reading the biography we also say that somebody like major John Singlaub does not have an introduction, but that is unfair, he deserves a nice long introduction so i will attempt to keep it to a medium length. He was commissioned as an infantry officer i
Has more. Reporter this is where it all happened. Gas station employees tell me off camera the customer started acting erratically, so they called the police. The video youre about to see does not capture what led up to the takedown. Video captured by cell phone shows a Vallejo Police officer hitting a man on the ground who appears to be resisting arrest. The officer then pulls out what appears to be a flashlight and hits him repeatedly. Another officer arrives. You can hear the suspect screaming, i am god. Voices in the background are yelling police brutality. People in the neighborhood agree. Absolutely disgusting that someone would do that to a human being. Shouldnt hit him tham times. Thats extremely excessive. And hes still hitting him. Reporter but a store clerk who was working at the time says the man was threatening people. At that time he was turning around with his fingers like he was shooting people. I was scared like what if he really, you know, has a gun on him, you know .

I was scared, like what if he really has a gun on him, you know . And what if hes not there and he decides to pull out a gun and start shooting people .

Reporter the Vallejo Police department issued a statement that reads in part, its important that no one make any assumptions without having all the available facts. Just like anyone else, officers are innocent until proven guilty. Again, that officer is on leave pending an investigation. Reporting live from vallejo, laura malpert. Following up now on a freeway shooting in the east bay, we have learned that the victim, a pinole man, has died. Police believe
She calls and she is safe. After 32yearold Lauren Soriano went missing at 11 00 this morning she was considered at risk because she is nine months pregnant. She was wearing a tank top and ugg boots. Police say this was out of character but did not suspect foul play. Apparently she got in a dark colored sedan but a friend didnt recognize the car. We tried to speak with the family and they didnt want to go on camera. A man who identified himself as a family friend spoke. I only know that shes been found. And that, you know, they are very appreciative of the assistance from the media and everybody and putting the word out. And more than that i dont know. And shes safe . Yes. You know where she was found . I do not. So still many questions about this. Kind of odd in covering to this evening. Most people in her neighborhood didnt know that anyone was looking for her. And San Francisco police were asking for the publics help if they saw her they wanted police to all ka. But when neighbors he
