I was definitely talking about video in relationship to minors. Thats what the topic the hot topic was about. Reporter bart Board Members asked her to elaborate on the race concerns in the memo and she did. In an emailed response, she expressed concern about sensationalizing videos that involve minority suspects, particularly when they are minors. But in three paragraphs about race and the media, thats the only reference hamill made to minors. So we asked her again. You didnt even mention the idea or the notion that these people were juveniles in your initial memo to the board of directors and you mentioned they were minors once in the followup emails. You spent far more time about not perpetuating racial stereo times. Could you, please address that . The conversation about releasing the video has been going on for months. Reporter the memo also said it would make bart look crime ridden to publicize petty crime like these recent robberies. We know that our riders are concerned about it. And were very concerned with making sure that theres theres a number of strategies under way now. Reporter she is the person who decides what crime information is made public. The police chief makes recommendations, but she is where the buck stops. And apparently, she has decided in the last three days to change her policy. And bart has just decided to stop sending out police logs as well making it harder for People Like Us to, journalists as well as the public to get details about these crimes. Did the police chief address this . Yes. Its an issue of timing thats really interesting but bart is now using something called crime mapping. Com which gives really basic information like robbery at atm at this location, but the police log had more narrative detail. But when you ask bart about this, they say other jurisdictions use crime mapping. Today i asked do other Police Agencies only use crime mapping with no detailed information like bart proposes . Im not aware of an agency that just uses crime mapping. Its one component of your outreach to the media. So i wouldnt promote using that in lieu of press releases or press conference or anything like that. Reporter so to be fair, the chief has only been with bart for a month and a half and he says he is working with the Communications Department to provide more detailed information on an ongoing basis. Stay with it. We will. Thank you. New details on the air canada plane that almost landed on top of four jets on the taxiway at sfo. Canadian investigators say the air canada jet was just 100 feet from disaster. Our ken bastida in the newsroom with the new information for us. Ken . Reporter yeah, allen. The Transportation Safety board of canada is now involved. They are weighing in on fridays near miss. The pilot somehow confused the taxiway with the runway. Canadian Officials Say the plane flew 100 feet above two fully loaded planes waiting to take off. It missed the third aircraft by 200 feet, the fourth plane by 300 feet as the pilot aggressively climbed out of the landing attempt. Then he was already a quarter mile over the taxiway. Now, another interesting detail from the canadian report. It says the air Traffic Controller handling the approach was busy with other flights when it happened. It says that one of the planes on the taxiway actually alerted the controller about the wrong approach. At that point, though, the air canada jet was already directly over the other aircraft that were on the taxiway. Wheres this guy going . He is on the taxiway. In a goaround. Looked like you were lined up for charlie there. United one, air canada flew directly over us. Yeah, i saw that, guys. Well, that plane eventually landed safely after another pass. But passengers werent told about the near miss. The faa and the ntsb are now looking into why the air canada pilot got confused about where he was supposed to land. Thank you. The faa is arriving to investigate a deadly plane crash in sonoma county. A small plane went down in schellville about 1 p. M. Chopper 5 was overhead shortly after the crash. One person is dead, three others hurt. We have calls in for updates on their conditions. The plane is based out of palo alto, but theres no word yet on who was killed. The plane was equipped with an emergency parachute. It looks as though it did deploy but its unknown if the plane got enough altitude for it to work. New at 6 00 a Mexican Museum in San Francisco is putting itself on exhibit as it tries to clarify recent reports that some of its artifacts may not be authentic. Kpix 5s Susie Steimle went digging for the truth about this extensive collection. Printed out really not correct information. It spread like wildfire. Reporter andrew kleuger of San Franciscos Mexican Museum is determined to set the record straight. He says local newspapers got it wrong when writing about the authentication of the museums artifacts. I think it was a misinterpretation. Reporter it stems from this Study Released in june. The study commissioned by the museum states only 85 of nearly 2,000 prehispanic pieces will be permanently displayed at the new Mexican Museum being built. The newspapers took that to mean the rest of the nearly 2,000 prehispanic pieces were fake. The initial interpretation, in my opinion, was the individuals didnt receive the report. Reporter the archeologist who wrote the report says the rest of the pieces are still being studied and may turn out to be real or may turn out to be fake. So the process is not final. We have the duty to continue examining the collection. Reporter the archeologist points out u. S. Museums often receive highend forgeries as donations. The authentication process is meant to sort those out. The Mexican Museum is now under heavy scrutiny before it goes into its new location near the sf moma. The 33 million location will open up in 2019 and is recognized by the smithsonian. This makes it a National Level museum and, therefore, brings it higher standards. So while the artwork itself can be left up to the viewers interpretation, the quality cannot. In San Francisco, Susie Steimle, kpix 5. The city of oakland has a new deadline for responding to a report criticizing the Police Departments handling of an officer sex scandal. A federal judge wants a detailed report by september 15 explaining what the city will do to get opd back on track.

People eager to speak at the Planning Commission meeting. Many are fighting a proposed pot dispensary in the sunset district. The storefront would be on noriega street next to sunset boulevard. As kpix 5s john ramos reports, both sides have mobilized their supporters. Reporter cannabis supporters believe the people have spoken bypassing proposition 64 legalizing Recreational Marijuana use. But apparently, others still have a lot more to say about it. You know, why can they impose on our children and schools like this . Are we the United States or are we in a third world corrupt country . Reporter about 400 asian residents of the San Francisco sunset district are at the Planning Commission this evening to oppose a plan to put a mcd, medical cannibis dispensary, in their neighborhood. Former oakland mayor jean quan and her husband want to open a dispensary a storefront on noriega street. But neighbors say its too close to a preschool. The consequence would be disastrous. Reporter why . What would the consequence be . Reporter that the children would get used to marijuana and when they grow up they can easily be addicted. Reporter they say theres widespread cultural opposition within the Asian Community of San Francisco. Nick lao who says thats whats hard to get the cannabis his grandmother needs for pain. Theres a language and culture barrier. Theres one of the obstacles and also someone like my grandma or her caregiver shouldnt have to travel across the city to access this medicine. Theres no reason why we shouldnt have it in our own neighborhood. Reporter recent Community Meetings on the topic have been heated and they expect the Planning Commission meeting to last for hours. Both sides are set in their positions, so the Planning Commission will have to weigh the citys general acceptance of cannabis dispensaries with the wishes of the neighbors who will be living near them. They have to understand our feelings, um, Mutual Respect and compromise are important in any community. Reporter in San Francisco, john ramos, kpix 5. This may not be the last fight over this.

Coastal regulators approve a deal to shut down a sand mine. Cemex has been dredging santa on the beach for more than a century. Now as we explain, that practice is going to stop within a few years. Kiet do reports. Reporter for the cemex sand mine which has been around for 110 years, this is the beginning of the end. The settlement provides for a timeline and proposed phase out of the last coastal sand mine in the United States. Reporter they met in seaside today to vote. A cemex representative looked on. Hundreds of thousands of tons of sand are trapped and removed from the system annually by the operation. Reporter cemex was given a full hour for rebuttal but spoke for only three minutes. Respectfully disagrees with certain aspects of fact and law in this matter. We set aside this disagreement today in the interests of seeking a resolution of this matter. Reporter for years, cemex has denied the violations as public opposition steadily mounted. But in may, the issue took on new urgency when the state Lands Commission determined cemex was stealing public sand. A month later cemex finally signed a cease and desist agreement. They agreed to reduce its take by 25 and stop mining altogether on december 31, 2020. And then they will sell the land to a nonproperty or Government Agency for at least a 20 discount where it could be converted to some kind of Recreational Area with public access. The state Lands Commission says the deal avoided a 10year long court battle. We unanimously vote yes to the motion. [ applause ] thank you very much. [ applause ] all we can do is say, thank you, this is awesome. Everyone should celebrate. The coast should celebrate. Its the coast that wins. Its Mother Nature who wins today. Reporter there is one final hurdle left to clear. On august 17, the state Lands Commission will meet to vote on this agreement and all indications are it will pass at which time the cemex sand mine will ramp down operations.

Coming up, well talk about how hot and how long. Next. And steals a package right off the front porch. Well, this time it wasnt just a camera that well, we have seen it time and time again, a a thief steals a package off the front porch. Kpix 5s len ramirez is in san jose where the homeowner pulled up just in time to mess up a clean getaway. Reporter this is happening all over this neighborhood and throughout our viewing area. Its happening in peoples neighborhoods again and again as you mentioned. Usually, the thieves get away with the goods. But not in this case. Plus, not only did they not get away with the package, they also got their picture taken. This is a video that i caught of a couple stealing a box off my porch. Reporter heidis Surveillance Video shows it all, a soccer momlooking woman coming off the sidewalk to steal a package on her porch, then a dodge pulls up with a accomplice at the wheel. Then you can hear her arriving home seconds later [ beep beep ] reporter in the nick of time, blowing her horn and confronting the couple while snapping photos of their license plates. Im screaming, of course, saying a few choice cuss words. [ laughter ] and i was very upset and keyed up. And i said, um, you know, im, like, im going to take your picture im going to call the cops right now. Reporter it was too much for the wouldbe thieves to handle. They threw out the box, backed up and then tore out of the neighborhood. They couldnt figure it out. Im like middleaged white couple stealing a box in a nice car. It just seems very shocking to me. [ laughter ] and stupid at 5 45 p. M. Reporter heres the shot of the license plate. The picture i got was pretty darn clear. I was impressed, being so keyed up, i wasnt sure if i was getting a good picture. [ laughter ] reporter she said she didnt think twice about confronting the couple at the time. But now she has second thoughts. I know, its probably very ignorant of me to have done that because you never know nowadays what people have. Reporter what was all the fuss over . She says the couple took a risk over practically nothing. They would have been sadly disappointed because it was literally a box full of tape and this is a box full of tissue paper for my packing supplies for my work. [ laughter ] reporter she said she did call the San Jose PoliceDepartment Yesterday evening after this happened. She was initially told by the officers that there would not be a case started on this because the thieves gave back the package. But after recognizing this great video that is available not only of the act itself but the license plate involved in the incident, apparently the Police Department now is going to be opening a case. I just spoke to an officer who said that. And also, they will be using that video to try and tie it into other cases in the area. Reporting live in san jose, len ramirez, kpix 5. A threealarm fire in downtown lafayette overnight destroyed a twostory office building. Skydrone5 got a view of the charred shell left behind. Blackened rubble and a big mess, the building used to house the citys chamber of commerce and a restaurant and several Small Businesses, but not anymore thanks to these flames that could be seen for miles away around midnight.
