Believed to be a suspected buyer. The van was apparently delivering rescue dogs from the fresno area to new owners when she stopped for the night. The suspect might have already sold some of the dogs before he was caught. For those in the community who happened to purchase a dog, especially from a gentleman in a white van, contact the Oakland Police department or fremont Police Department to make sure its not attached to this or if it is we can rescue the dog and return them to the rightful owner. Reporter now those dogs are still in the custody of the oakland animal control unit and apparently will be for some time because during the vehicle theft, some of the paperwork associated with the dogs turned up missing, so theyre having to contact owners, in some cases across the country to verify whether or not they own that dog. So its going to take awhile to sort that out. The important thing though is that the dogs are safe. Live in fremont, len ramirez, kpix 5. This just in, a hazmat si
The full house could vote on the articles of impeachment as soon as next week. Coming up fast. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill for us covering the impeachment investigation for us from the beginning. Nancy, good morning. We have two articles, abuse of power and obstruction of congress. Were used to hearing obstruction of justice. This is obstruction of congress. Can you walk us through the two articles and tell us what they mean. Reporter absolutely.

They say when the president asked the president of ukraine to investigate joe biden at the same time mr. Trump was withholding 400 million worth of military aid to ukraine that that hurt u. S. National security and it was meant to benefit mr. Trump and his reelection effort and solely mr. Trump. Moving on from there, obstruction of congress. That has to do with all of the ways in which democrats say this

Roma guy from taxpayers and were a member of the new jail coalition. So one of the surprises of today, and not to repeat what everyone else said is this renewed polarization from 2015.

Hello. I am austin. I am the Youth Commission staff. We wanted to come through to show that we create change not by thinking of how good everything works for the privileged folks. We think about change in how it treats the people on the margins, undocumented folks, black and brown folks and transand gender, nonconforming folks. We cannot forget what happened with the gladiator case against the sheriff which supervisor walton called for a hearing on accountability of the Sheriffs Department about how are people currently being treated. Right now we are thinking about longstanding promises and this is the problem we need to address right here. You will have the position and power to do that. Please listen to the plans and recommendations made already. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello. I am Third Generation san franciscan. I am calling for a change. This doesnt go far enough. It will send people to santa rita is wrong. People die at santa rita. The fact most Vulnerable People are at 850 and
