Mayorlocardo who has a black lives matter signin the window of his home was asked about the vandalism immediately afterwards.

Post master general recently testified before congress he would pause any mailbox removal until after the election. And new this morning were hearing President Trumps first direct comments on the jacob blake shooting. Im looking very strongly into it, and ill let you know very soon. It was not a good sight. I didnt like the sight of it certainly and i think most people would agree with that. But well be getting reports in very soon, and well report back. Those comments came in front of air force one last night in New Hampshire after being asked to respond to democratic Vice President ial candidate senator Kamala Harris thursday. Harris called for a thorough investigation into the shooting and says she believes the officer should be charged. And thousands of americans also marched on washington to highlight racial injustice.

We are going to be the generation that dismantles systemic racism once and for all, now and forever. We stand and march for love and we will dream. The east bay soldiers Youth Basketball Program took a trip to d. C. To participate in the march. Members of the group are no strangers to loss.

His older sister went with the teen for the trip and says her 19yearold cousin was shot a killed at a Halloween Party within a month of her brother. She told us marches like these keep their memories alive. Just to know theyre still being thought about, talked about thats whats keeping me together. Because i swear just to have to go to a cemetery and see them buried next to each other, that hurts so bad. Today the group plans to connect with people that they met during the march. And new developments, jacob blake is no longer handcuffed to his hospital bed in wisk. The Kenosha CountySheriffs Department said blake was restrained because of an old warrant that he faces. Blakes lawyer says it has been dropped. Blake is paralyzed from the waist down right after being shot in the back seven times by police.

Ends monday. All right, lets talk about the coronavirus pandemic now. California finally ready to reopen some more businesses. Ultimate elacounties can still decide to impose stricter requirements. Abc 7 News Reporter leanne melendez has the details. Zbhr the state took into account several factors to determine if and when a business can reopen such as the hospitalization rates, the number of available beds, the number of people in the icu, et cetera. But now the number of cases and test positivity will serve as more crucial metrics. Heres what were looking at. Were looking at these four tiers, color coded making it a little simpler for folks. Purple, red, orange and yellow. Reporter so if your county is in the purple tier it means that most nonessential businesses can operate outdoors but some like hair salons and malls can open indoors at limited capacity. Red means more indoor businesses like museums and movie theaters can reopen with restrictions. Orange means places like indoor wineries and bowling alleys can open. And at the yellow level all indoor businesses can reopen with modifications. By modifications the state means physical distancing is still required, so are masks and health screenings. Right now every county in the bay area is purple except San Francisco and napa which are red. This new framework is up to the discretion of each county meaning they can be more rigid but not less. Heres where the governor says the stringent part comes into play at the state level. We also have a triteria just just 21 days on moves between tiers and two weeks on stability and steadiness before you move into those tiers. Reporter with that the state seems to acknowledge covid and its effects on the population will be around for some time. And as leanne just mentioned San Francisco and napa counties are in the red tier and that gives them more leeway for reopening, but both are taking very different approaches. Despite the states new guidelines mayor breed says nothing changed in San Francisco, and that has left teachers and salon and Restaurant Owners confused and frankly frustrated. Abc 7 News Reporter kate larson has the story. Theres so much uncertainty and i know theres so much frustration. Reporter mayor london breed summing up exactly how Small Business owners feel about the tugofwar between conflicting state and local reopening guidelines. Bethany jackson owns posh salon in San Francisco. There are no indoor Salon Services right now, but mayor breed says salons can open outdoors next week. Its grounds hogs day. Its over and over again. Its the same situation. Ive been ready to open at least, you know, four or five times now and it just hasnt happened. We have two months of good weather. Reporter specifically weather warm and dry enough for outside dining. San francisco Restaurant Owner lori thomas also runs the restaurant association. She says the city needs clearer guidance about when and how Indoor Dining will resume. I think youll see a lot of people opting to close their restaurants and wait over the winter. Reporter according to governor newsoms new color coding system San Francisco could reopen schools for in person learn two weeks from now. Stephanie lee is third grade teacher. Shed like to return to the classroom but doesnt see how its possible. Realistic is january. The district just doesnt have the man power to have enough adult bodies to maintain that size. Reporter mayor breed did say returning children to learning environments is a top priority. Kate larson, abc 7 news. Five other bay area counties have also revealed their plans allowing for more businesses to reopen starting monday. In Alameda County indoor malls can open but only at 25 capacity. Hair salons and barbershops can continue to operate outdoors. Cop trau costa and san mateo counties can also open and all let salons and barbershops serve clients indoors again. And we know the changes to californias reopening plans can be confusing, they are confusing. You can find more information and a complete break down of the color coding system on our website.

All right, lisa, interesting we can still smell the smoke more than a week later. Oh, for sure. And its getting a bit worse with the marine layer in and the winds light. We are looking at some of the haze and smoke lingering on the peninsula. So you wept from good to poor this morning, and thats going to be the order of the next several days where we get some good air quality and then the winds shift around and things are hazy again and you can smell that smoke. Usually the Morning Hours when the winds are light. But things definitely have a way of changing out there when our overall weather pattern changes and thats going to be the case throughout the weekend. Heres a look at liefve dopplerr 5 it in gilroy, 55 in sann San Francisco. A bit of sun rise here but a lot of smoke with moderate air quality. 57 by the delta.

Thats when the winds at 7 00 get pretty gusty. You can see the orange here in redwood city. Pretty good up in san rafael now, but were expecting that to change. Also into the east bay and right around the coast here where it will be kind of smoky. So the czu lightening complex looking at the winds up to about 12 miles an hour. And temperatures will be in the mid70s tomorrow today. Upper 70s as we get through monday and looks like that warmth building through the week ahead. Up to the north bay light winds with relative humidity. And numbers in the 60s out towards the hennessy fire.

Warmth today about 90 degrees in antioch, 84 with hazy conditions in san jose. Look for 88 up in concord, 68 in richmond.
