Chopper. They say a rescue at night like this is especially challenging and codys position on the side of that steep cliff made it even more difficult. They tell me that his hands, his fingers were clinging to the rocks and his toes were also clinging there as the waves below crashed against the shore and the wind hit them, threatening his safety. They also say that it could have knocked him over some of that wind. Now, once martelli got hold of him, they brought him to the top of the cliff where firefighters rendered aid. The first couple of times larry touched the cliff, he lost his footing and the rocks crumbled away. So he had to kind of kind of reposition him a little bit. The priority is to get him out of that situation because if we dont get him moved, you know, even if he is injured, if we dont move him, theres a likelihood that he can die there. Now, they only had to move him about 80ft. But they also tell me that he had no scrapes or scratches. They say this is because of teamwork, that this was this was a positive outcome. And obviously sometimes they get called for rescues and recoveries of bodies. And this is one of those positive situations where. No one was hurt. Now, we hoped we could have spoken with cody today, but he was out of state. He was visiting this location and he was on a flight home today. But the rescue team told me they did speak to him this morning and he sincerely thanked them for their work. Well have more from this dramatic rescue during our 730 newscast tonight. Crystal bailey, ktvu, fox two news. And its quite a story and quite some video there. Crystal thank you. Two people are in custody tonight in connection with a shooting at a safeway parking lot. It happened late monday afternoon in american canyon. We now know the incident started after a fight which escalated into gunfire. Three people were taken to the hospital. Police identified one of the suspects who was arrested as 18 yearold christian evans. The second suspect is a minor. Both have been charged with attempted murder and are being held without bail. Police in san jose have arrested four suspected burglars accused of taking hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of property from storage units. Detectives began investigating the case in late december, when a man attempted to burglarize a storage complex on lincoln avenue. An investigation revealed the suspect had stolen more than 400,000 in musical equipment and other property from multiple storage units, police made four arrests in connection with the burglaries and said other illegal items were found in the suspects possession. Honestly, everything that we discovered that illegal narcotics, illegal firearm, a semiautomatic, as well as a high capacity magazine, you know, those obviously arent supposed to be in their possession. And so thats part of the picture. Were trying to paint. Police say all four suspects were booked in the Santa Clara County, maine, jail for various crimes, including burglary, conspiracy, grand theft, vandalism and possession of stolen property. Nurses in Santa Clara County are currently on strike for the first time. The nurses say they are underpaid, understaffed, left and are being asked to float between hospitals. Ktvu south bay reporter anne rubin explains their demands and the response from the county. Santa clara county nurses want to be heard. Our biggest concern everyone is the pay and the staffing, they say Patient Safety is on the line. But contract negotiations between the registered Nurses Professional Association and county leaders have fallen apart. A proposal by a mediator last week was flatly rejected. Were barely getting anywhere, which is why its been really frustrating. Weve been negotiating with them for eight months now, and so theyre taking to the picket line for a three day strike that forced the county to bring in outside nurses to replace them. About 1000 of them were flown in from around the country at a cost of 20 million. Unfortunately, weve now had to take money and put it towards this essential coverage, and thats money that we then dont have as a system. So far, administrators say things are running smoothly at the countys three hospitals and over a dozen clinics, while some appointments were converted to video visits and some elective procedures were postponed. The Trauma Center and Emergency Department are open inside the hospital. It really feels and looks and seems as though business as usual, you know, the patients are getting the care that they need, the staff who have come to work seem very pleasant. Patients gave mixed reviews. Michelle ramirez was directed toward an outside urgent care. It seems like the short staff, theres not a lot of, workers in there, but isaac turner said thats not what he saw. My appointment was on time. I only waited five minutes once i arrived. There has been one issue both the county and union can agree on. They were infuriated by what they call an illegal sickout by nurses last friday that forced the closure of the level one Trauma Center for several hours. Thats not acceptable to us. Thats not acceptable for the community. But nurses say theyre at their breaking point and something needs to change. But this time we need to take a stand because county is not listening to us. No word on what it might take to get both sides back to the bargaining table. The strike is set to last through early friday morning in Santa Clara County. Anne ruben, ktvu, fox two news well, we still dont know where the oakland as will be playing next season. And todays meeting with city officials did not provide much clarity.

A San Francisco group has filed a friend of the court brief in a Supreme Court case that will decide if laws restricting camping on public property are unconstitutional. The case stems from a ruling in the ninth Circuit Court of appeals, which found that the city of grants pass, oregon, could not enforce local ordinances banning public camping. The same court also ruled that San Francisco cannot sweep homeless encampments when there are not enough beds in city shelters. The Lawyers Committee for civil rights said that criminalizing homelessness does nothing to address the lack of Affordable Housing. The frustration should be directed at our elected officials. It should be directed at our mayor, our governor, people who have the power to direct resources towards the solution. It seems pretty simple. I dont know how its gotten so complicated that the solution to being unhoused is to build Affordable Housing. This is one of dozens of amicus briefs filed in the case.

But so often people have to spend their time and energy focused on finding Affordable Housing. So this lets us give our staff an opportunity to have Affordable Housing and focus then their time and energy on the classroom. The application process opened tuesday and runs to april 23rd and is income restricted. Residents are expected to move in as early as this fall. The new residents will be selected through a lottery process, the city says there are rental options ranging from studios to three bedroom, two bath units. We have a range of units to support new educators. People might be at the beginning of their career or just starting a family. Two family units and we have five floors and ive had a chance to visit. I mean, these are Million Dollar views. The district says the housing even includes common areas where teachers can gather and work on their education plans collaboratively with other educators. The whole project, built on property already owned by the school district, helping to streamline the process. There is a recognized need for educator housing in the state and across the country, but this is a first of its kind in the city and for us, what we hope to be the first of many, in fact, the city has two similar projects already in the works. Another rental property and a property where educators could actually buy a unit of Affordable Housing so those educators could start to build equity and live and teach in the city.

So were in a good place right now, we will see over the course of the next couple of months how this snowpack translates into runoff into rivers, streams and reservoirs that are communities and our environment, our economy, the food that we grow in california all relies on that. Now, before you head out to the plant nursery or landscaper, consider that Climate Change is highly likely to affect this, meaning every water agency asks us to keep conserving within their individual rules. Average is awesome, weve had some pretty big swings in the last couple of years, but average may be coming less and less common.
