At sfo, nexgen is the future of their 1 2 vacation faa. And concerns it may be a matter of working with communities, the faa and airlines. Its subjective. What may bother one may not bother another.

For weeks the San Jose Police department has been moving officers out of normal patrol duties to deal with huge spike in burglaries in the Almaden Valley. 80 burglaries just last month. Tonight, though, the arrest of a trio of alleged crooks may bring that spree to an end. Nbc bay areas robert handa joins us from the community where police are keeping the arrests lowkey, robert . Reporter thats right. Police arent usually so lowkey when it comes to breaking up a burglary ring there may be more people involved. While the arrests help they may not help solve the overall situation. The same thing about how police are trying to solve their staffing problem.

And when they invade our private space which is supposed to be our home and they come in you know and take things that dont belong to them you know you just feel helpless. Some of these burglaries they believe involve the recent spike in the burglaries that are happening out in the Almaden Valley. Reporter police say the strategy of moving officers into patrol or priority crimes is paying off. The mayor and police union agree it cannot be a longterm solution, but are still at odds over how to solve the problem. And we know that theyre continuing to hustle. But we need more officers we know we need more officers. Reporter julie wegman is also grateful to see arrest but is concerned about police being stretched so thin. Just the fact that theyre prioritizing here we need to take a look at where theyre taking the other priorities from and if there is crime going up in that area. Reporter police say they will continue to do what is working. Negative, officer is immune to doing these followup investigations on these burglaries. Were taking this very seriously, as is evident with these recent arrests.
