That is because the, um, office of the District Attorney has now charged him with five felony counts of Sexual Assault. We are talking about 19year old Brock Allen Turner.

Prosecutors say the attack happened after midnight on a sunday morning just outside an on campus party where they had met. Two men riding bikes reportedly saw turner chase him down and held him until police arrived. Turner withdrew from stanford yesterday.

Whats more, he will be allowed to go back on campus to apply to graduate school in 2016. Now, as for this most recent case, stanford looks like its taking a harsher stance.

This is a look at someone who is not about to let a blizzard get in the way of his surfing. These images are from the waters off montauk, new york, on long island. Just taking in the surf, you know . Why not. When youre freezing a little. When surfs up, you got to get busy. You get out there. Crazy. I dont know how this happened but i saw on twitter yesterday iron man was posting and there was a particular woman training for an iron man event this summer and she was swimming through the snow. You could see her. She had good form but i was still thinking how is that possible . To get through it, huh . Thats boston strong. Yes. True. One way to get to work on time. A car fire in san jose was scratched. They couldnt find the car. It was confusing. They think its a fire from a homeless encampment and its a location change, on the southbound 280 connector to northbound 101. So fire crews are out there now and they have to temporarily close that connector ramp ford to put out the fire. Again, so the whole car fire thing, i guess, that was just kind of reported from, um, from a driver in the area. But they appear to have gotten that wrong. So again, a few slowdowns now on 101 itself and that connector is going to be shut down for at least another probably 10 minutes. Heres a live look at our sensors around the rest of the bay area. So that really is our only hot spot out the door right now. Otherwise, southbound 880 looks okay in oakland.

Once you get past the metering lights youre good to go into San Francisco. The peninsula is quiet towards sfo maybe catching a flight somewhere. Everything is good on 101 and 280 and bart is also on time. You can always ride bart to the airport. Everything is good systemwide no delays. Thats your latest kcbs drive to work.

Taking a look at the Golden Gate Bridge, it is fogfree. Just a little bit of fog a hint of fog in the far reaches of santa rosa and also in throughout the trivalley, otherwise a few clouds throughout the day mainly north of the Golden Gate Bridge. It will be sunny, it will be bright, and it will certainly be dry all the way throughout the remaining portion of january which is the record right here in the bay area for no measurable rainfall. Cloud cover across the southern half of the state. We have now the exiting area of low pressure that was subtropical in nature. It brought us muggy conditions yesterday.
