the upper hand on this fire. >> officials tell us they have stopped the fire's forward progress and appear to have it pretty well contained right now. water dropping helicopters and planes are of course helping with this firefighting effort. we have been watching them drop retardants on the blaze, and they're doing a good job at keeping it from spreading. >> joining us on the telephone is brandon liski. are you there? >> yes, where am. >> thank you for coming on. tell us what's happening now in terms of where this fire is as far as cup tainment is concerned. >> currently, as you were saying, the forward progress has stopped. crews are actively putting in their control lines and mopping up the hot spots to insure that the fire stays within its established perimeters. >> no danger at this point, it looks like? pretty much controlled? >> there is still a danger, if the winds were to start kicking up and take some of the hotter your yeahs within the fire's perimeter and send some hot embers outside the containment lines, it would cause problems. they're working diligently to keep that from happening. >> light winds in the area has to be helping this. you jumped on it quickly so i imagine it wouldn't rabge out o control. >> absolutery. today's conditions are better than they were earlier in the week. a cooler temperature. humidity is coming up. and also it's a lighter

me, one of those that burned last night, in a suburban area, next to hillside, next to very dry brush. dry grass, high temperatures, and an arsonist in novato, they have become a recipe for anger and concern. >> it's scary, but it was here two years ago, and we thought it was somebody in the neighborhood who left, and now it's back. >> what do you make of that? >> disease, obviously. >> this morning, monique echoed the sentiments of most the residents. two years ago, a string of 60 unsolved small arson fires frightened this community. now they're dealing with what happened last night. 13 fires within a mile of each other burning simultaneously. ten of those fires burned brushy grass. >> 12, that's a really, really hard nut to swallow because we have a very tight-knit community here. the homes are close together. we all know each other. >> steven morris took these pictures of the flames burning behind their home last night. fire crews were so busy that by his watch, it took almost eight minutes for them to arrive. >> it already grew a substantial amount in just a few minutes. >> today, the fire crews culled through the damaged brush looking for clues. they have found consistencies between the fires two years ago and last night. but with an escalation. three of last night's fires involved structures. one burned a car and this house. another burned the door of this apartment. a third burned a trash can. >> when you start burning someone's personal property or endangering an inhabitant dwelling, then different crimes apply. not just the standard arson crimes. >> in this quiet community filled with homes surrounded by fuel, it is now a time for high alert. >> obviously somebody is sick. >> in novotto, wayne freedman. >> in walnut creek, investigators are stepping up their efforts to find setting fires there. they're trying to determine if this fire set last night is connected to four others all ignited in the past week. this burned about half an acre in arbolado park. none of these have caused damage, but they have set up a hot-line. 1-866-50-arson, if you notice any suspicious activity. >> in san diego county, police have charged a man for setting one of 11 wildfires. he pled not guilty to setting a fire near oceanside. that one and four others are 100% contained. a sixth fire is nearing full containment, but crews are now shifting their focus to two larger fires still burning. one in san marcos, the other in the marine corps's camp pendleton. they have scorched nearly 20,000 acres throughout the county. fire investigators also concluded sparks from faulty equipment touched off the 1200 acre rancho bernardo fire, and three teenagers were arrested last night, accused of setting two small but unrelated brush fires in the escondido area. >> from stopping fires to catching a firefighter. the fire chief wanted for killing his girlfriend has been arrested. 55-year-old orville fleming was captured today. he has been missing since may 1st, the same day his girlfriend was found stabbed to death. but the sacramento county sheriff's office has not said how they found him, what he was doing or where he's been for the

is set up with ride sharing companies. they say uber, lift, and side car are operating add the airport illegally, and now sfo is turning to state regulators for help. lillian is live at the airport with the story for us. >> ride sharing companies are supposed to have a permit when doing business here at sfo but not one of them has applied. driving travelers to and from sfo is big business. so much so that drivers for ride sharing companies are doing it anyway, without the proper permits. this man got a stern warning. >> he basically said, are you a commercial driver? i said, well, no, i work for uber. he said, that's commercial. you're restricted from picking up here and told me to leave. >> many drivers have even taking off their so called trade dress, but officers are still catching a number of drivers in viles. in a three-week period, they have given warnings to 110 drivers. 101 were from uber, seven from lift, seven from side car, and one from wean. in a letter to the public ut utilities commission, sfo's director said the disturbing lack of compliance with the requirements raises serious safety concerns at the airport. >> we're findi ing drivers that have expired licenses. finding drivers with no insurance. finding drivers that don't even own the car they're using. >> sfo says a permit would solve these problems. companies would pay a $1,000 deposit and $3.70 per ride, but uber said they're concerned with the tracking devices that would be needed for all of their vehicles. it's the same technology required for taxis and limos. >> do you think they should have permitted like you guys? >> absolutely. >> this cab driver said everyone should be held to the same standards. >> all required to have insurance, whatever it is. we pay money. they don't pay anything. it's completely different. >> schachanges may be on the wa. they'll be meeting with airport officials about this issue next month. lilian kim. >> six possible solutions to tight airport perimeter fences have been identified by east bay congressman eric swoel well. that comes after a 15-year-old from santa clara got over the fence in san jose and stowed away on a flight to hawaii in a wheel well. david louie is live at the airport with a look at the technology he's talking about. david. >> well, dan, some of the technology demonstrated today has been deployed already at some smaller airports across the u.s. managers here at mineta san jose airport think they know one possible way to pay for it. it took a 15-year-old from santa clara to show how weak perimeter security is, and now six companies have stepped forward with possible solutions. congressman invited them to demonstrate their technology at the al maida county emergency operations center. he tipped on the homeland security committee. >> only once we put these technologies out in the field in the airports can we burn if they're effective and if it's going to be affordable. >> spotter rf is a utah company that has developed ground level radar that can detect human motion on both sides of the fence. surveillance cameras then zero in to identify the person and trigger an alert. >> it tells you what to look at. you have something here at this location. all the time, day or night, rain or fog, just like the postal service, and then cues the camera to that target, and then alerts the operator. another company demonstrated a system that listens for and identifies a noise along a fence. >> the vibration is picked up and transferred to this wave guide here, and that in turn goes to this sensor here which converts it. >> software then determines if it's a person or an animal to reduce false alarms. the cost, less than $800,000. passengers could be footing the bill through a surcharge on tickets. it's currently $4.50, but san jose officials would like to see the amount raised to buy new technology. >> the approach of having more bodies out there, it's not the solution. >> this is airport security video showing the 15-year-old dropping out of the wheel well after arrival in hawaii. an airport spokeswoman said police here haven't interviewed him because he remains in child protective custody. >> still ahead here tonight on abc7 news, the death of his two children inspired an east bay man's patient safety campaign, but could it make going to the doctor a lot more expensive? >> safety is the theme of this year's beta breakers race. we'll show you what's being done on the course for your protection. >> absolutely not the way to treat any animal. >> not even a rat. tonight, you'll see the video that's led to calls for the closure of a north bay wildlife center. >>. >> despite the sunshine, temperatures down a few degrees. i'll let you know how much cooler it's going to get for the upcoming weekend coming up. it, so a danville father is bringing a measure in memory of his kids straight to the voters. troy and alana were killed by a driver on prescription drugs, and the patient safety act bearing their name would change the state's medical malpractice law, something that hasn't been done in nearly 40 years. laura anthony has the story from danville. >> what we want is for other families to be safe. >> for danville's bob, it brings some measure of satisfaction after a decade of mourning and healing. it's the ballot measure he created in memory of his late son and daughter that will go before california voters in november. >> if a doctor harms someone, they need to be held accountable so people can understand what happened and secondly, they need to change whatever went wrong. right now, if you don't go to court and hold them accountable, they feel there's no need to change. >> 10-year-old troy and 7-year-old alana died in october 2003. struck by a driver high on alcohol and drugs just a few blocks from their home. a gold mercedes jumped the curb and struck and killed the children as they walked with their mother and friends on the sidewalk. barreto had been abusing vicodin and other pain killers in the months and minutes before the incident. they were narcotics prescribed by six different doctors at the same walnut creek hospital. if voters approve it, the troy and alana patient safety act would require drug testing for doctors. and raise the state's $250,000 cap on damages in medical malpractice cases. it would also require doctors to consult a government database before prescribing pain killers to new patients. the california medical suggestion insurance and hospital groups have raised $33 million to oppose pack's measure. >> to increase, the costs would be passed on to consumers, to rate payers, passed on to taxpayers as well. >> the current $250,000 cap on damages was put into place nearly 40 years ago in 1975. if the pac measure passes, it would go up to well over $1 million. in danville, laura anthony. abc7 news. san francisco's iconic beta breakers race kicks off this sunday morning.

places right here are one of the big changes they're going to notice because last year, neighbors complained about too much partying in the park and the side effects of the partying. i'll let you use your imagination there. today, crews installed these fences to keep runners and revelers out. for many runners, beta breakers is less about the finish line and more about having a good time. sometimes a little bit too much of a good time. however, at the race expo today, we found dedicated runners like rebecca daniels as well. >> last year, the hill was a little intense. and this year, got it. >> for her, it involved extra workouts. for others, it involved costume shopping. >> we're thinking of dr. seuss characters. >> for the city, race day prep involved much more. additional officers will be here from sacramento and san jose, along with a 20% increase in private security. alcohol is once again officially banned. >> if we do see alcohol, we will take enforcement action as we see those violations occur. >> last year, two men died in connection to the iconic san francisco celebration. tragedy race organizers want to avoid. >> obviously, we want people to have fun, but we want people
