Findings from the hearing will go to the governor, who could then impose a 60day cooling off period for more negotiating time. Bart wants that. The unions say thats not necessary. One of the Board Members didnt agree. Im surprised to hear you say it could be achieved sunday night. Reporter one former bart director and now retired judge has an idea of how to settle it and its not what commuters want to hear. I think the resolution will come if they strike. The resolution will come because the public will be heard. Reporter thats going to happen, you think . Yes. Reporter strike is inevitable and when the public gets mad, its going to get solved . Yes. Somebody will wise up. Reporter linda yee, kpix 5. The governor is expected to decide by sunday whether to order a 60day coolingoff period. 4 32. Oakland police think a father who was killed along with his young son was targeted. A small memorial of balloons, teddy bears and candles sit in front of the east oakland house where they were killed yesterday morning. 20yearold Andrew Thomas and his son drew jackson were in town from fresno to celebrate a relatives birthday. They were sleeping in a back bedroom when police say somebody snuck into the backyard and opened fire through a window and a wall. Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop. Like 8 or 9 times. I just wish this stops. I dont want, you know, my other cousins to try to retaliate. Officers believe these killings could be connected to saturdays murder of thomas cousin. Oakland Police Arrested a person in that killing. Now, the double shooting is just the latest in a series of unsolved murders in oakland. Three weeks ago, 8yearold Alaysha Carradine was shot during a sleepover in the diamond district. A week after that 66yearold judy salamon was shot while driving a car near maxwell park. Oakland officials are reviving operation ceasefire in the fight against out of control violence. Kpix 5 reporter Christin Ayers asked the mayor and the police chief about the citys number one crimefighting plan.

Were going to be calling in some of the people who have been involved in some of the most violent crimes. Reporter that was the mayor 11 months ago rolling out the program and now mayor, with all due respect, we have all seen this happen so many times, so many Young Children shot and on top of it we keep hearing about these plans to change things and we havent seen a lot change. What is oaklands centerpiece plan to address Young Children being killed . We plan to continue with ceasefire until we have hauled in the 300 most violent people in the city. It doesnt happen in one round. Reporter why hasnt it been fully funded at this point . Why have we been waiting so long . Its been months . I think let me just say, so, cease fire is absolutely my number one strategy for reducing violent crimes, shootings and murders in this town. Reporter but we found out ceasefire is not being run like the citys number one strategy. There is no permanent director. And the few officers who have been running ceasefire have only been doing it part time. Chief sean whent says that will change. Im able to dedicate a full time Enforcement Team to cease fire to make sure the Police Department meets our end of the program. Reporter in the meantime both the mayor and Police Officer say they are working with teams, that east oakland nonprofit youth uprising, to start a youthbased safety program. Those teams say they want to be optimistic. When this is all said and done, when the cameras are packed up and the microphones are put away, then, you know, i dont know how much hope thats going to be. Reporter Christin Ayers, kpix 5.

Kpix 5s kiet do has the latest on the battle over the as planned move to the south bay. Reporter after four years of staying mostly silent about the ass move to san jose, Major League Baseball talks sort of. League lawyers filed a motion to dismiss san joses lawsuit. It says the business of baseball is exempt from the antitrust laws as it has been since 1922 and the citys claims are fatally defective. San joses attorney calls it a moral issue. Can Major League Baseball block a competitor in this country from relocating his business simply because someone else says we dont want them to move . Reporter back in june, the city sued the league claiming commissioner bud selig is illegally blocking the as move. The as want to build a new stadium in san jose but the south bay is giants territory. The league says if san jose wins its lawsuit then every time a team wanted to move it would lead to absurd results. Mlb would be subjected to suits from any team that desires a team and from any city that doesnt want to lose its team. Not what the competitive laws say. Thats not what the antitrust laws say for any other business in america. Baseball shouldnt be treated differently. Reporter and so this 14 acre lot in midtown san jose where the stadium would go has pretty much been unchanged the past four years. They will be in federal court in october. Kiet do, kpix 5. The judge is expected to hear the issue in early october. As owner lew wolff is not part of the lawsuit against Major League Baseball. More companies will come out with their 2nd quarter earnings reports today. Disappointing results from several companies yesterday led stocks to its first threeday drop since the month of june. The dow dropped 48 points and the nasdaq finished almost 12 points lower. So its been a tough week. Americans set a record though for borrowing money.

We sent our ken bastida to e what was going on. Just in time for shark week, something cruising through the bay and it caught a lot of peoples attention. So we sent our ken bastida out to find out whats going on. Reporter it looked ominous, almost like a scene from jaws. Well, not quite. A shark circling near the hyde street pier, a fin sticking out of the water. It got many to do a double take. It was kind of cruising along these pilings over here. I could see the top of the fin and back of the tail and just kind of swimming along. Really cool thing to see. Reporter could you mistake it for a great white . I could definitely see how someone could make that mistake. We were brought some photographs here. It was initially thought to be a great white. None of our biologists had a chance to actually see the animal. The animal in question upon closer inspection of the photographs appears to be salmon shark which is very closely related to great whites. And theyre also commonly seen here in the bay. Reporter while the salmon shark is related to the great white, it is not a maneater. Would have scared me try to explain this. The dead shark was found on a new york city subway overnight. The guy who took the photo says it was still wet, had blood on its mouth. Was it maybe a shark week stunt . The Discovery Channel says nope. It wasnt them. A little ominous, though. A little bit, yeah. Weird in new york. Wheres the water . The. Exactly. Dozens of people lined up to meet the man behind Marvel Comics in the bay area. Family is the walt disney for this era.
