Republican Assembly Leader james gallagher. Its a good start, but it does not solve the problem by any means. We need to reform proposition 47. There is a separate effort underway to repeal parts of prop 47, which in 2014 reclassified felony thefts under 950 as misdemeanors. Not to say everything about 47 is hunky dory and perfect.

And so we got somewhat fortunate in the fact that this did not occur during most of the commute time. In case youre just joining us, it was a deadly crash involving a pedestrian on westbound 580 at harbor. Underneath the overpass. There on the way to the richmond bridge, heading over to marin. That commute shouldnt be affected too much. Weve been looking at some of the other commutes. Now while i have you, i do let you know that the traffic on 80 eastbound has recovered. After they cleared the Construction Zone between hercules and the carquinez bridge eastbound, there was a little bit of a backup there this morning thats been cleared. So they kind of did get that out of the way soon. Highway 37 now also open for a while. We had some closures there. So were getting kind of lucky when it comes to some of these closures. They kind of did go away before the main part of the commute. What i consider the main part of the commute is between, lets say, five and nine. So taking care of business here a little bit before that starts at 420. Lets bring steve back in with todays weather. All right sal thank you sir.

This system will mainly stay to the north, but we will get the breeze to pick up. Sunny but breezy today as that low digs in to actually the intermountain region. Its not digging into the north of us, but well see a cooler, breezy, windy pattern taking us friday into saturday. If youre heading to the mountains. Could be some isolated shower thunder shower activity for us.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu facing growing pressure after prosecutors said the International Criminal court asked for arrest warrants for him and for the leaders of hamas because of alleged war crimes in gaza.

The Prime Minister hasnt told us leaders if he would accept an invitation to address congress. But last night on fox news, he did talk about the arrest warrants from the icc. Its despicable symmetry.

Could be a few high clouds north, but no big deal. Clear. Cool in the morning to mild 40s and 50s. Temps near average. Lots of sun. Breezy to blustery. I think temp breeze will pick up as this system slides into the north and east of us. Santa rosa, livermore, redwood city, san jose temperatures dropping 80, 78, 7376. Only a north wind is keeping santa rosa anywhere near the 80 degree mark. Cooler pattern continues, especially as we go into friday and then leveling off saturday.

I dont think these will change all that much here, but temperatures peninsula a little cooler there.

Also at 39 degrees, you can see the system swing in. Now again, its too far to the north, but the tail end of that, the southwest edge of it, will develop over us. And that equals lower pressure. So sunny today. Breezy. And then that cooler temps will slide in as that system develops to the north and east of us. Cooler breezy to windy and maybe a little bit of activity up in the mountains. Thats the only really fly in the ointment. This forecast model still showing some drizzle, but cooler air aloft and cooler temps inland. Its hard pressed to find it, but 60s 70s to near 80. So the question would be for the defense. Can you find jurors that might be more sympathetic to somebody whos got a Mental Illness . Jury selection is now underway in San Francisco for the state trial of david depape, the man accused of attacking paul pelosi. The challenges that lie ahead for the case, and marijuana or alcohol.

Well, this week is queer and transgender Asian Pacific islander week. As we transition from aapi heritage month into pride month, San Francisco was the first city in the country to celebrate the week, passing a resolution in 2021. Organizers say it is important to celebrate while also recognizing the discrimination that queer, transgender and aapi communities face. We are leading not only by cultural lives, by being both american and of asian and Pacific Islander descent, but were also navigating what it means to be openly lgbtq. So the fact that we have to take these different lenses to our lived experience day in and day out honestly makes life a little exhausting at times, but it also makes it just so beautiful and so rich and vibrant. Members of San Francisco pride tell us they do find it exciting to see the next generation growing up, seeing their identities reflected more in television and in movies. San francisco recognized the life and work of the late civil rights activist harvey milk. Yesterday would have been milks 9490 fourth birthday. He was the first openly gay man elected to Public Office in california, when he was elected as San Francisco supervisor in 1977. In november of 1978, milk and mayor George Moscone were shot and killed by supervisor dan white. It was an equally strong advocate for renters, for workers as for people riding Public Transit and he was really critical in the idea that the Gay Liberation movement needed to build coalitions and fight in solidarity with other movements for rights and for justice, as right said, milk encouraged all people to speak up when the rights of others are under attack.

Ever since the covid 19 pandemic in general, it predicts this memorial day weekend to be the second busiest on record. And thats since theyve been reporting that in 2000. On the roads, however, people traveling by car are likely to set a new record, with more than 38 Million People planning a road trip, a triple a spokesperson says memorial day weekend will set the tone for travel for the rest of the year, especially the summer, and that could be promising. We havent seen numbers like this for memorial day in nearly 20 years, not since 2005 that weve seen numbers this big, when we talk about the pandemic again, were not just talking about prepandemic numbers. We are surpassing prepandemic numbers. So that tells you a lot about how people are viewing travel these days. In california, that number is about 4. 5 Million People traveling for the weekend by car. For airlines, tsa is expecting as many as 3 Million People in a single day. Thats likely to happen tomorrow.

The state senate and the state assembly passed separate packages of bills to increase the penalties for organized crime. Rings also allow thefts to be combined so they can be prosecuted as grand theft and allow retailers to get restraining orders against convicted shoplifters. Its a good day for retailers. We think these will provide a number of tools for Law Enforcement, for retailers and for district attorneys that we think will change the narrative on how california will address retail thefts throughout the state. Its a good start, but it does not solve the problem by any means. We need to reform proposition 47, a separate efforts underway to repeal parts of prop 47. It was approved by voters in 2014.

Employees with the county fair were going to the banks night deposit to deposit that cash. When someone held them up at gunpoint and stole the money, the president of the county fairs board of directors tells us. The cash came from fees for entrance to the fair and for parking. I dont know what the exact circumstances or they had a car or not, but apparently from what i saw in an email from the fair itself, was somebody walked up to the person or persons that were putting the money in the bank and put a gun up to their head. Basically and then the rest is history. Now, organizers of the county fair say they may have to cut back on next years plans for free fair activities just to help make up for the loss.

Depape is facing charges of attempted murder, burglary and assault prosecutions. Got a video . This is a 21st century case. They have the crime actually recorded, visually.

Now, after an error was made during the sentencing, depape is due back in Court Next Week to be resentenced in his federal trial last week, he was sentenced to 30 years in prison. Experts say thats not likely to change during the resentencing, a former Oakland Police chief, laurent armstrong, is now running for city council. He filed the paperwork to run for the seat currently held by rebecca kaplan. Now, in 2023, armstrong was fired by mayor sheng tao after an outside investigation concluded that he had mishandled two Police Misconduct cases. He was later cleared of those allegations. Armstrong was popular during his time at the oakland Police Department, but his move for the City Council Seat has so far received mixed reactions. Rouz. I dont really think that there should be like police and government because they might be like biased. You know, i believe he will. Like i said, hes, he did a good job when he was the chief, i think he was wrongfully fired, but, i think he would do a good job. At least eight other candidates are seeking the seat, and more may file. It is a significant step forward in the efforts to redevelop the oakland coliseum.

In 2022, nearly 18 million americans used cannabis daily or almost every day. That compared to 15 Million People who drink daily or almost every day. Just a general repositioning of the substance in society so that it is less stigmatized or disapproved. And also, theres fewer literal risks of using in a criminal justice sense.

Well, fire investigators in pleasanton will be at the scene of a deadly house fire looking for the cause of that fire. It broke out last night just before midnight. Ktvu sally rasmus is there, and we know that one person has died and you have all the latest information. Good morning. Ali good morning dave. Yeah, this happened at the pleasanton hacienda Mobile Home Park, which is where we are. You can see the home that caught fire behind us. The fire, as you can see, is now out. But sadly, one of the people who lived here died in the fire and was not able to escape it. It started just before midnight this morning, and when firefighters arrived, they saw a woman who lives here outside the home, distraught, telling them that another person in the home was trapped. A team of five firefighters started to go inside the house to rescue that person when they experienced something, firefighters called a flashover. The battalion chief explained what that is and what happened. When the fire is contained into a house like this, the contents heat up, especially when the fire gases and the heat have nowhere to go, so what happens is, once it gets enough oxygen and its hot enough, all of that smoke and, flammable contents, kind of bursts into flames at the same time. He says from the time firefighters entered the home to when that flashover occurred, it was just three minutes. Luckily, no firefighters were hurt. We dont have any information on the identity of the people who lived in this home. The sign in front of the park says that this is a community for people ages 55 years old and up. How this fire started is something fire investigators will have to determine. Theyre expected to be here later this morning to start that work, but in the meantime, we can confirm one person died in this fire at this pleasanton hacienda mobile home community. The woman who lived here escaped and went to the hospital. We dont have any details on the extent of her injuries, but fire investigators should be out here later this morning. Live in pleasanton. Ali rasmus, ktvu, fox two news. All right. Thank you ali. Crews have finally put out a huge fire at a scrapyard in redwood city.

We have a respirators that we put on. So we had them on. Crews had the fire under control by about 5 p. M. The air quality in the area is expected to be back to normal this morning. Investigators are still looking into the cause of the fire. A historic ship is now leaking diesel fuel and oil into the delta. The aurora dates back to 1955, but it started sinking in near stockton and spilling gallons of fuel into the delta, which prompted a Quick Response from several agencies.

So far, we havent found any wildlife that has been affected by this leak, but then also the delta waterway is its recreational. We have boaters out here. We have swimmers out here, and we want to make sure that theyre not affected by this. Fish and wildlife experts deployed a boom to keep the oil from spreading.

Former republican president ial candidate Nikki Haley Says shell be voting for donald trump in november. I will be voting for trump. Having said that, i stand by what i said in my suspension speech. Trump would be smart to reach out to the millions of people who voted for me and continued to support me and not assume that theyre just going to be with him. This is the first time haley has publicly backed trump since she suspended her campaign in march. The senate plans to vote on a Border Security bill today. Senate democrats are bringing it back to the floor, less than four months after republicans blocked the same bill from advancing. Its not likely to pass today, but if it does, it would speed up the asylum process and make it harder for migrants to qualify for claims.

Now, did you write that law thats something you feel strongly about . I do feel very strongly about it, and i have doubted the those reusable plastic bags bring your Reusable Bags to the store. Your cloth bags. Yeah. Yes okay. Im all for it. That settles it. Sal. You take it from here. Tell us about the commute. Hey, sal. Sal yes, here i am with the triple a Traffic Camera and you can see southbound. It took my piece out. It should never do that. Southbound 880 at tennyson. That crash is on the shoulder. We had an earlier crash southbound 888 hesperian thats been removed. So we do have traffic that is moving along. Okay bay bridge toll plaza from our triple a Traffic Camera.

I did hold on to a few 80s, but i dont think theyll last very long. Then. Much cooler and windy as we go into friday and also into saturday. Could be some low clouds dancing around. If youre going to the mountains, just keep an eye on maybe some thunderstorm activity popping up for us. You only fly in the ointment would be on some drizzle, but it does look better sunday into monday. Thursday forecast clear for most. Lots of sunshine. The wind picks up though. 6070 to a few near 80. But after today well have to put those 80s on hold for a few days. It will be significantly cooler friday. Saturday. All right steve, time is now 642. A sad story a Founding Member of the San Francisco rock band train found dead. What we know about his death while he was house sitting in europe want to do more to stop, smash and grab robberies. The new bills will increase the penalties for organized crime rings, allow thefts to be combined so that they can be prosecuted as grand theft, and will allow retailers to obtain restraining orders against convicted shoplifters. Todays a good day for retailers. We think these will provide a number of tools for Law Enforcement for retailers and for district attorneys that we think will change the narrative on how california will address retail thefts throughout the state. Its a good start, but it does not solve the problem by any means. We need to reform proposition 47. A separate effort is now underway to repeal parts of prop 47, which was approved by voters in 2014 that reclassified felony thefts under 950 as misdemeanors. Our time now 646 nine people in northern mexico are dead after a stage collapsed at a Campaign Rally. A strong gust of wind damaged the stage during an event with a president ial candidate.

And now 650 seats will be up for grabs in the uk parliament. Whichever party wins most of the seats will form the next british government, and that groups leader will be the Prime Minister. Well, he was the long time rival of Joey Chestnut in those eating competitions. But now the japanese competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi is calling it quits.

How many of you are sitting here now about to cross this stage and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career .

Boy, that certainly got a lot of conversation going. He also spoke about his opposition to abortion, in vitro fertilization, pride celebrations, gay lifestyles, the chiefs are holding practices this week and they were asked about his comments. Im no harrison. Ive known him for seven years, and im i judge him by the character that he shows every single day, and thats a good person. Thats thats someone who cares about the people around him.

Now, head coach andy reid said he has not talked to butler about the speech sales of his jersey actually skyrocketed after the speech, surprise surpassing even teammates Patrick Mahomes and travis kelce.

She says his body wasnt found until the friends came back home five days ago. The column was the basis for train. He helped launch the band in San Francisco back in 1993, but he left the band ten years later. He was 58 years old. Wow. That is. Yeah. Sad news. Yeah. Sad news for a local band. All right, lets check in with sal for a look at traffic this morning. What are you keeping an eye on, sal . Well, the approaches to the bridges. Pam and dave right now are looking okay here at the macarthur maze from our aa Traffic Camera. It looks okay, but when you come around the corner, you will see a slowdown. Its not particularly, you know, its not huge or anything, but definitely the slowdown is there. And on the san mateo bridge same thing goes. Looks like we have a vehicle that either stopped or is stalled on the left shoulder. Its not really affecting traffic on that span. And were getting more slow traffic in that Silicon Valley commute here on northbound 280 and 101. I can put up the grid to show you its not a lot. However, there was a little bit of an issue with a car on fire on the shoulder northbound 280 near ray street. I do see some slow traffic in that area. 651 what about todays weather . Heres steve. So when will we see those lines of cars heading east, south or north . When your expertise. You mean the getaway . Yes, sir. Yeah. This afternoon. You know, people say, oh, its going to be friday.

Itll be much cooler as we go into friday and saturday. But santa rosa, livermore, redwood city and san jose arrows are all trending down after yesterdays temp 70s and 80s. Today its mainly 70s. The only reason im holding on to an 80 in santa rosa is if a north breeze kind of holds court. If it doesnt, then itll. If it turns southerly, theyll probably be about 77 or 78. Cooler pattern, much cooler, especially friday and saturday. Some inland temps on saturday will struggle to get over about 70 or 71 degrees 40s 50s on the temps, although brentwood says 60. But most locations in the 40s 45 petaluma and menlo park, now 47 fremont 48 one observation oakland, also at 48 woodside. Look at you. 43 degrees from Half Moon Bay 45 pacifica is in the upper 40s.

Thats why its not reporting. We do have this system thats going to deepen to the north. So sunny today. Nice breezy, quite comfortable on the temps. Theres only a little bit of fog. San mateo coast looks like therell be more coming in next couple of days, but a much cooler pattern friday saturday before we rebound a little bit on sunday and more so on monday. Could be some isolated thunderstorms up in the mountains. They keep advertising it, so eventually i think itll happen there. Thursday forecast clear for most only. Patchy fog, lots of sunshine.
