the traffic is also moving along. okay. on that san mateo bridge after they got rid of a bunch of slow traffic eastbound because of an earlier issue that's been taken care of. silicon valley commute. right now, it looks like everything's a lot lighter. we don't have a lot of slowing yet. we're just going to leave that alone. 702 let's go back to the headlines now. >> thank you. well, last night, 12 protesters were arrested near the uc berkeley campus. >> they're accused of being part of a of a pro gaza group that took over a vacant building owned by uc berkeley, now ktvu. >> sally rasmus is in studio now to tell us that 20 different law enforcement agencies were brought in to remove those demonstrators. >> yes. a large police presence at that site last night, uc berkeley brought in police from as far away as fairfield and foster city to help them clear an ahead hall on channing way. that's in berkeley, near people's park. palestine police and riot gear formed a line around the building, and university workers then went in

to start clearing away the trash and belongings of the protesters inside that building, there was graffiti scrawled on some of the walls. there were no fights or reports of injuries, but 12 people were arrested. the protesters started occupying the uc berkeley owned building earlier this week as it was cleared out, the group chanted support for palestine in the war in gaza. >> free, free, free, free palestine. >> now, the university confirms this group is different from the protesters who set up an encampment near sproul hall a few weeks ago. that encampment was dismantled after a deal was reached with administrators, but the demonstrators at the anna head hall site said they would only provide information about their demands on their instagram page. they would not speak with the media about their cause and what exactly their objectives were in taking over that building. now, uc berkeley says it considers the occupation of head hall a crime, not free speech, and says the 12 people who were arrested will likely be charged on suspicion of

burglary, conspiracy and vandalism. the university says it plans to disclose the names and affiliations of the 12 people arrested. back to you, dave. >> okay, ali. thank you. time 704 classes on campus. we'll be back today at uc irvine after classes were held remotely because of a tense standoff between the police and protesters. the protesters were ordered to leave an encampment after it was declared an unlawful assembly. 47 people were arrested, including students, uci employees and many people not affiliated with the university. >> new. this morning, for the first time, trucks carrying humanitarian aid for palestinians in the gaza strip have rolled across. sapir built by the united states, first in n operation that american military leaders say. meanwhile in washington, house republicans voted to pass a bill to reverse president biden's freeze on sending a shipment of weapons to israel as it plans to invade the southern gaza city of rafah. democrats are calling the bill a

political stunt by republicans, as president biden defies the will of congress with his use of executive privilege. >> he is brazen, doing so by withholding congressionally mandated aid. >> everything it calls for. the administration is already doing. and it is just yet another example of the republicans using israel and anti-semitism for their own political purposes every day. >> senate majority leader chuck schumer says the senate will not take up the legislation. the white house has already said the president will veto the bill if it makes it to his desk. >> our time now is 705. israel defended its military actions in gaza at a hearing with the united nations top court, and an israeli official said they're taking the action to avoid harming civilians as they carry out a military offensive in rafah in the southern gaza area. >> that is why there has not been a large scale assault on rafah, but rather specific, limited and localized operations

prefaced with evacuation efforts and support for humanitarian activities. >> now, the international court of justice is holding a third round of hearings on emergency measures requested by south africa, which wants the court to order a cease fire in gaza. ktvu coverage of the war in gaza, as well as the protests here in the bay area, continues online on our website ktvu.com. >> new this morning, we now have video of the world's number one golfer getting arrested on charges of assaulting a police officer, cell phone video here shows authorities arresting scottie scheffler at the pga championship in louisville, kentucky. espn reports there was a crash near the golf course and that there may have been a misunderstanding as scheffler drove past a police checkpoint to get inside the country club. when he was finally stopped. espn reports he was shoved against a car and handcuffed. authorities released a mugshot of scheffler and listed the charges against him, including

see them breaking into these homes. one neighbor says he screamed at them while they were driving away. >> they were, you know, certainly not put off by somebody seeing them commit a crime. it seems like this was kind of a normal practice for them. >> neighbors say they have taken a photo of the thieves car. you see it right here. it was a black bmw sedan. the people living on the street suspect their home's close proximity to highways 13 and 580 make them an attractive target for thieves. looking for a quick getaway. we reached out to the oakland police department. officers only would confirm that there have been three recent home break ins on that block. garcia. andre. >> thank you. we'll move across the bay now for the newest homeless count in san francisco. it shows mixed results. the city's point in time count shows total homelessness in san francisco. represented here by that dark orange, increased by 7% from 2022 to 2024. now stands that there are more than 8003 8300 people experiencing homelessness in the city. these

numbers, according to researchers. now let's move to the other side. at the same time, city leaders point to the fact the number of people living on the street in tents or in vehicles is actually on the decline. we see that in this graph, the number of people without shelter decreased by 1% since 2022, down 16. if you compare it to 2019 numbers. nearly half of the city's homeless population is currently sheltered. now, the city data point out that youth homelessness has decreased by 9, but the number of families who are homeless has gone up by 94% since 2022 to now, 437 families. the city also found its chronically homeless population increased by 9. more than 2900 people have been identified as being chronically homeless. >> all right, gasia time now. 716 the city of san francisco also says its new homeless outreach program has connected thousands of people to help in its first year. the city says the homeless engagement assistance response team otherwise known as hart for short, has responded to almost

14,000 calls, including 80% of calls to three, one, 1 or 9 one one involving unhoused people and 70% of the calls related to sidewalk and street encampments. right now, the city is sending other calls involving the homeless, including some trash, passing and suspicious persons, to the hart team. >> 717 let's get out the door here early on a friday. typically it's friday light. is that the case now, sal? >> yes, for the most part, they're gasia and dave, we do have friday light out there. i want to show you highway four. we're going to start there and show you the traffic is a little slow. i wouldn't say it's completely sunday morning light, but we're getting close at the bay bridge. let me tell you, there's a little bit of a backup, but not much. and if you're driving on interstate 880, it's congested. heading north past the coliseum, san mateo bridge has recovered after some earlier issues. 718 let's bring steve back in with today's weather.

>> thank you sal. appreciate that. all right. a much bigger fog bank has made it all the way out to sacramento. that's a heck of a push here for mid-may. cool pattern. lots of reports of drizzle as well. and i don't, you know, the may graze in place. and i think june gloom is in our near future as well. tilden park with almost a 10th of an inch in the last 24 hours. bonnie doon davenport and santa rosa, all with some measurable amounts of drizzle. the wind has turned a little more west southwest, well more westerly right here. see this little low, little coastal eddy right there visiting the marin coast point rays. and then that funnels in this right there over through the golden gate, san pablo bay, right out to the street. and there's nothing to stop that low cloud deck. it's up around 2200ft. water temps came down at just a skosh there, from about 54 or 50 5 to 52, 54 and in cold temps, water temps anytime. we talked about this in early april , as long as they stayed cold and we had any kind of onshore breeze, fog was never far away and boy is it ever 50 on the temps a few 40s, but a lot of low 50s. we are running about 2

to 5 degrees cooler than yesterday at this time. 52 popular scotts valley, socal, aptos, santa cruz, morgan hill, san martin, hollister all in there. a little warmer, but mid 50s around saratoga, campbell, also cupertino. low clouds, a lot of gray over the bay and well out and out to the delta as well. and system is going to sweep into the north. that'll keep the breeze going and also keep the theme of some cooler temps. so fog, drizzle, sunny, breezy, but temps not that warm unless you're really far inland. big fog bank, windy and cooler taking us into at least saturday. probably sunday and i would think drizzle as well is not going to be far away tonight and tomorrow again. for many, especially coastal hills, one item of interest would be the mountains starting early next week. thunderstorm activity already popping up, maybe a return visit there for truckee, kirkwood and south lake tahoe down to mammoth. that would be early next week. stratus quo is in place. low overcast, fog, then sun. nice. mild, blustery, breezy to downright windy for some 5060 by the water. 60s and 70s inland. if anything, maybe a

little cooler into the weekend. some bump in temps probably early next week. >> steve. thank you. many visitors to yosemite are no stranger to posting on instagram the fact they've conquered challenging hikes or to showcase its natural beauty. but now there's a new reason to turn to instagram how it can help limit overcrowding in one of the country's most beautiful places. >> but first, the summer lineup for a three day music festival in napa. the big name performer, who will not take part in the bl k radio pe

this weekend, and it's bringing back a feature that's been on hold for a couple of years. i will say the weather is going to be perfect because normally you sweat it out at the downtown street festival, but not this year. it's the 32nd year of the livermore downtown street fest. it's a two day event, features live music, vendors, arts and crafts, beer and wine tasting, lounges, and so much more. also back by popular demand, those collectible street fest wine glasses they were replaced with recyclable cups during the pandemic. >> all right, our time is 724. all right. now we know who's going to perform in napa at the black radio experience this year. john legend, jill scott and dre 3000 will headline the three day event along with 30 other musical guests and comedians. dave chappelle hosted previous years there, but he won't be taking the stage in this summer's event. the festival is due to take place august 30th to september 1st at

the meritage resort and spa in napa valley. it is 725. a lot of people pulled out their bicycles or they bought a new one during the pandemic. we'll look at to see if you're still keeping up with that hobby for years later, and a key route through one of the most beautiful parts of california is back open, and sooner than expected. >> what it took for caltrans to repair the washed out highway one, and why the timing here is crucial for businesses that rely on certain customers

it's right on your screen there and captured on surveillance video. we'll tell you why. the public defender's office says that video does not tell the whole story. and highway one in big sur finally reopened again to traffic this morning. we're going to bring you a live report about the months long repair work out there. and what it took for caltrans to finally get traffic flowing again from ktvu. >> fox two news this is mornings

on two. >> well good morning. thank you for joining us. welcome back to mornings on two i'm dave clark i'm gasia mikaelian. >> it is friday may 18th some may 18th we're sweating it out. others like today were grabbing a jacket before we head out the door. >> steve that crossed my mind yesterday. i'm like, you know, for may, this is pretty cool. other days you're like, oh man, it's already 90, you know? right? that's not the case here for us this may. and i don't think we're really going to see much of that, probably all the way for the rest of the month. early next week does look warmer, but then it comes right back down. there is a little bit of a break over sfo in the low cloud deck, but most locations say cloudy and the fog has made it all the way out to sacramento. that's a heck of a surge right there, to see that even travis at one time had cloudy skies. i mean, usually that's about the cut off cordelia fairfield, but it's a big fog bank. some local drizzles in place, but we're working for the weekend, that's for sure. but boy, it's a cool start to friday, and i think it will be a cool weekend as well. fog burns back to the coast. may

take a while for some 60s and 70s at best. well the morning commute is always on my mind, so let's ask the man himself how are things on a friday? >> are you asking me to take you to the top, steve, because i can't. >> yeah, just turn me loose, my friend. >> i will, steve, i will. let's go right to the bay bridge, which is notorious for a bunch of slow traffic, but today it's not. i think a lot of people are already working for the weekend, and they're loving every minute of it. you can see interstate 880 is looking okay, but watch out. there's a little slow traffic passing the coliseum, traffic is okay. on 580. san mateo bridge is moving along. okay. and right now in san jose on northbound 101, two, 80 and 85, everything looks pretty good at 730. let's get back to the headlines. new this morning. >> highway one through big sur just reopened after being closed for more than six weeks due to march's massive storms. those repairs were completed eight days ahead of schedule. ktvu tori gaines live in monterey

county with why tori this timing really is key. >> absolutely. good morning. garcia the timing of this opening is huge, especially as tourists start to flock to our california coastlines to enjoy the beauty that is here, including down in big sur. now this impact, this road slip that happened here more than six weeks ago has had a large impact on these coastal communities, particularly in big sur. i'm going to step out of the frame so you can take a look at the traffic that is now making its way through. now, excuse me. one second, one direction convoys, convoys were scheduled as a temporary solution here through this roadway closure. they were also intended only for essential workers and local residents. now, authorities aim to keep the stress on the roadway to a minimum as the repairs were under way some days in april, they canceled the convoys altogether due to wet weather. now, caltrans says those challenges are part of navigating the roads on the coast. >> conversation between the

highway, the oceans and the mountain and trying to meet the challenge that mother nature gives us. >> now, construction on this roadway was tricky business, as you can see in the picture here, a crane held repair crews suspended in a basket over the edge of the roadway, something that could only be done in very specific weather conditions, namely when winds were under the speed of 25mph. because that basket was suspended more than 170ft in the air. now governor gavin newsom visited the site earlier this month when he signed an emergency proclamation which would help secure $100 million in federal funding for repairs across the state due to recent storms. excuse me one moment now. newsom described the repairs and also celebrated the work being completed as the roadway is now open. but caltrans is asking drivers to use caution through the area. >> just really want to encourage travelers to moderate their

speed when they come through the new signal. it's a new traffic setup, and then once you're past this, you have a beautiful drive ahead of you. no need to get ahead and pretend you're in the big city, rush. you're back in nature, relax and enjoy the ride . >> now, these repairs, though very extensive, it took many crews, many hours of work to get this roadway prepared. these are. this is only a temporary fix. now, there is currently a design phase for this roadway, which is expected to be completed in spring of 2025. live in monterey county. tori gaines, ktvu, fox two news okay. >> tori thank you. time now. 733 well, yosemite has a new instagram account. it's to help the lovers of the great outdoors and climbing enthusiasts plan your trips to the national park. now the account is called yosemite big wall travel. it tracks daily permits for wilderness climbing and the number of climbers on each individual route. park rangers

hope this traffic information will allow climbers to make better decisions on which route to take to avoid crowded climbs. >> one woman is in jail facing felony assault charges for what police are calling an unprovoked attack at a store in san francisco. surveillance video shows the victim walking into kansas food market in the city's potrero hill neighborhood tuesday afternoon. moments later, another woman enters and begins hitting the victim with a bag containing a bottle of whiskey. the attack continues until the shop clerk chases the attacker away. >> i think the video tells one part of the story, but you know this is a real person with a real history, and the video doesn't share what that history is. >> police arrested 26 year old jessica blasi of oakland shortly after the attack. she appeared in court yesterday. her attorney says she's dealing with serious mental health issues. >> your time now. 734 new developments involving allegations of bullying within the antioch school district, an independent investigator processed two of the four complaints and says the school

district acted appropriate and found, quote, no irregularities. several school employees accused the school district of not investigating a manager accused of making inappropriate remarks and trying to intimidate them. now, the school board president was one of those who accused the school district of not taking action, and he issued a statement saying, i will not tolerate an environment where bullies are allowed to run rampant in our school district. i will not be bullied or silenced by any administration official just because i'm calling them out. it is now 735 new information coming in involving today's still developing story about the arrest of the world's number one golfer, scottie scheffler, at the pga championship in louisville, kentucky, a police report says a detective was taken to the hospital after being dragged by scottie scheffler. his vehicle. espn originally reported there was a crash near the golf course, and

there may have been a misunderstanding as scheffler drove past a police checkpoint to get to the country club. when he was finally stopped, espn reports. scheffler was shoved against a car and was handcuffed. scheffler was arrested. he faces charges that include assaulting a peace officer. now scheffler has been released and in fact, he just teed off for the second round a short while ago as college graduation ceremonies are in full swing this time of year, a new study finds. >> it often pays off for college graduates to have a double major. researchers at ohio state found graduates with two majors essentially double their chances of getting and keeping a job, especially in tough economic times. >> find the value of a double major is to protect the earner against downswings in earnings, earning a double major reduces the impact of a negative earnings shock by about 56, the

study noted. >> those with double majors have a greater diversity of skills many companies find valuable. >> okay, gasia time is 737. sounds valuable. well, very. >> and an mvp. >> yeah, let's see. >> she called you the mvp. >> so dave, i think you put her up to it i know i did not twist my arm. >> i said it on my own. >> dave is my personal pr agent at ktvu. i'm very fond of dave myself actually. let's go to the bay bridge toll plaza. you can see there's a little bit of a backup we haven't had a lot to talk about at, and i'm okay with that. we don't need a lot. tuesday, wednesday and thursday are the busiest days of the week. we do have a little bit of slow traffic here on interstate 880. don't worry, don't worry. i'll tell you when it's over. the commute that is san mateo bridge is moving along pretty well and there have been no major problems here. as you get to the south bay commute. now, what about the weather at 738? let's bring steve back in to tell us more about that.

>> thank you, mr. mvp. appreciate that. all right. we do have a huge fog bank huge. well out to the sacramento valley i mean for mid-may now they've been hot but they'll cool down obviously today. but when you get low cloud deck to make it all the way out that far sacramento roseville yuba city there you go. so that's a heck of a push. not only there, but look at southern california socked in the may gray big time there in los angeles, santa barbara down to san diego. i don't think this pattern's really changing all that much. it'll be subtle changes, but i think it takes us at the end of the may and into june with kind of a favoring that trend here. bigger fog bank drizzle bases have lifted, had no problem flying over the coastal hills for many here. drizzle tilden park with almost a 10th of an inch. bonny doon, davenport santa rosa 0.02 to a 0.04. there'll be more tonight. tomorrow. now, when low clouds make it all the way to travis. and they were at one time cloudy, so the wind speeds come

down when it gets overcast, but still west to 22, and it's an onshore breeze for just about everyone. 50 on the temps a few 40s, but we are running cooler today. bodega bay 49 occidental. good old oxy there 47. at one time sebastopol was now there 50, but i mean low 50s for many here. so it's running cooler by about 2 to 5 degrees compared to yesterday. a couple systems just continue to take aim at us. the high is not that close. it's backed off well but morning fog, drizzle, sunny, breezy to windy at times. here and it will continue. that big fog bank on saturday should get chewed up i would think a little bit, but still a blustery cooler weekend is on tap here. drizzle looks likely again tonight into saturday morning, so temperatures will be reflected 5060 and some local drizzle friday night. saturday morning. if you're going to the mountains because this low is going to swing into the north, could trigger some thunderstorm activity that would be early next week. so of lake tahoe, maybe central sierra. keep that in mind. stratus quo for us. low overcast, drizzle some breaks in, but not many. there were a

lot more yesterday than today, that's for sure. 50, 60, 70 on the temps here, i reluctantly went 76 in concord because they were only 71 yesterday, which was. that's one for the books, but it does look quiet and no cooler. there may be a little bump up early next week. >> steve, thank you. the bay area just celebrated its biggest day for bicycling yesterday with bike to wherever day. bike shop owners say that sales surged past $5 billion in 2020. at the start of the pandemic, but the industry has hit a real slump since then. they say one challenge has been finding a lack of finding enough mechanics who can actually assemble the bikes. but another setback is that many people have lost interest in biking. >> our industry, we're urging people to get back out on your bicycles to find the passion that two wheels brings. to use bicycles as a source of transportation action. >> one reason for a slump in sales is that everyone who wanted a bike bought one early on in the pandemic, and of course, you don't buy a new bike every year unless you're some people. last year, bike sales were down nearly a quarter from 2020, so this all has us

thinking about what's in our garage. we'll turn to andre senior here in the newsroom here, a question that really has us all thinking andre. yeah it's got me thinking to believe it or not, this morning we're asking some viewer reaction here. >> we know those pandemic era bikes in your garage. so are you using them? we're asking, are you biking more or less in the post pandemic era? the answer is yes. i'm biking more. no, i'm biking less or no. but i want to try. all you need to do is scan the qr code and go. or you can go to ktvu.com/vote. and i can tell you firmly david garcia, but i am in the category where the bike is locked up in the garage. >> oh no. yeah did you use it at the early part of the pandemic? >> i did, i did, i got it because of that and i used it for a long time. but lately i, you know, i just don't anymore. >> you see i don't have one, so i'm not okay. so there you go. yeah i wish i had one. >> we have more than enough to spare you. >> yeah. >> you guys bike bikes for all of you. my husband and sons live

on two wheels, so. >> but it's an interesting one for sure. at the beginning of the pandemic, a lot of people went out and bought bright, shiny bikes, and they're just sitting in a lot of things. >> we bought a lot of weights. yeah, ke hings to ig

the courts in san francisco, the city's rec and park commission passed an initiative that would require people to pay a $5 reservation fee to play at 28 of its 66 locations. the commission says this is aimed at better managing the courts and ensuring equitable access to tennis and pickleball facilities across the city. the plan now goes before the city's board of supervisors for approval. all right, our time is 745, a san jose movie theater celebrating 40 years in downtown san jose with some special ticket prices. >> three below theaters. first opened on may 18th, 1984. to morrow, the theater will roll back prices for movies from 1984 to celebrate tickets will cost just $3.50 and a regular sized popcorn only $2. some of the movies include indiana jones and the temple of doom and alfred hitchcock's the man who knew too much. >> and if you're looking for

and the stock she's watching this morning in dollars and cents. >> and a lot of people have been watching. the dow could be quiet for a little bit. that's typical when it crosses a very important level. we may see more testing of that 40,000 level for the dow, but this morning it is a bit quieter. after a pretty busy week full of earnings and economic reports ringing the opening bell this morning, the one bay celebrating opening weekend. that's the wnba commissioner cathy engelbert, along with members of the wnba. so exciting. the women getting a lot of attention these days, taking a live look at the numbers this morning they're all up, but just a little bit as you can see a live look at the dow jones up about 44 points or so, the s&p 500 up slightly as well. the nasdaq up about 24 points 16,722. but again we hit some record highs all across the board this week. well today an angel investing group that focuses on latino startups is holding an awards event in san francisco. i'm jealous. investors has released a list of

regulations designed to protect facebook and instagram users of all ages. i'm pam cook. that's a look at your dollars and cents. >> pam. thank you. the summer travel season shaping up to be one of the busiest on record. the tsa says it's expecting more than 26,000 flights every day through labor day, and nearly 6% increase from 2023. hope you're with us. in the past hour, when we spoke live with triple a about whether the high cost of gas will prevent people from taking road trips, most americans will be driving. >> as we mentioned, and that means they're going to be going to the pump and filling up. we don't expect a tremendously large hike in gas prices between now and memorial day, but you might see a bump of a few cents per gallon. the interesting thing is we have not seen gas prices affect people's want to travel. those planned road trips for vacations. americans for the past few years have been doing that regardless of the cost of gasoline, and we expect that to continue this year. >> aa expects nearly 6 million

californians to travel for the memorial day weekend. they estimate more than 4 million will go by car. >> as speaking of my car, sal is watching our commute on this friday morning. what's happening out there now? >> we're getting a little bit more slow traffic in some areas, and it's improving in others. let's go right to the bay bridge. everyone always wants to know on a friday what it's looking like. it looks light. there have been no major issues there. 880 is a little slower though. getting into downtown. you can see san mateo bridge traffic. that commute looks like it might be over for the morning, but right now the traffic is just moderately heavy and the south bay commute some of these freeways are notorious for being very, very slow at this time. right now, they're just moderately slow. 750 let's talk about this weekend's weather. here's steve. >> all right sal, thank you sir. we're leaning on a cool pattern. probably a breezy to windy one as well. well into probably monday then maybe some signs of a little warm up. but when low clouds make it out to the sacramento valley, that tells you everything you need to know.

that's a heck of a surge there. then now they've been hot the last couple of days out there. they'll cool off today as well. as the system begins to move into the pacific northwest and eventually nevada. by the time we get to sunday, monday, look at southern california, talk about may gray. i mean that all that is impressive to see it make it that far out out to hemet, there and beaumont riverside. how about that? that's a strong push of may gray. we had local drizzle here. tilden park, bonny doon, davenport and santa rosa all between .02 and almost a 10th of an inch 50 on the temps had a few 40s. brentwood won the lone outpost there at 60, but even vacaville is only 56, a lot of 50s. clayton was 49 this morning, 52 now 51, kensington, el sobrante, pinole, all in there at 52 north dublin. this is a much cooler than yesterday by about five five degrees or so. this system up here, up yonder, right here we'll dig into it looks like it looks like nevada on a lee side could produce a little bit of activity up there sunday, monday. but it continues. the theme of cooler

weather for us. morning fog. drizzle may take a while to get sun for some of you, but a breezy to blustery and big fog bank on saturday. then it looks windy and cooler sunday into monday. drizzle will be back tonight. tomorrow for sure as this system develops to the north, i would think this system should be enough to scour out the fog. maybe sunday monday, but look up in the mountains, hints of possible thundershower activity, so keep that in mind if you're going up sunday night and also monday. stratus quo is in place. low overcast, some breaks, but we had more yesterday at this time by far and temperatures on the cool side 50 6070s. and i don't think they're changing all that much till at least early next week. >> their garcia steve thank you california can say hello to the big sur coast once again. what you're being asked to do. if you plan on taking that scenic drive this summer, then the 49ers hand over a huge platform to an international artist. we'll talk with the woman who helped the team how off its 2024 schedule in

first became famous by sketching daily pictures of 49ers. quarterback jimmy garoppolo is getting new praise for her latest work. her name is rita oke. she created several drawings for the release of the 49ers scheduled for the year. rita says coming up with the concepts and the ideas was fun, and she drew all of these illustrations in just two weeks. >> people recognize my drawings,

so they were just tagging me and just congratulating me and everything, so it was crazy. i haven't had time to see all the messages and respond to everybody, but the feedback so far has been great. >> now, if you don't know her story, rita oke started drawing the 49ers because her boyfriend in portugal is a big fan of the 49ers. she developed a love for the 49ers as well. her favorite players now are george kittle and brock purdy. it is 756. nasa was named for the 12th straight year as the best large agency to work for in the federal government. just to be able to work here and be able to design and touch something that will one day travel to a new planet is amazing. >> i mean, it's indescribable. >> it's a special title. it reflects employee satisfaction with the workplace and the overall functioning of the agency. well, the san jose fire

think that it would really enhance the departments. >> now, the san jose fire department is not the only one that wants to recruit more women to their workforce. in march, the san jose police department pledged to increase the number of women recruits by 30% by the year 2030. all right. if you want to enjoy some live music this weekend, you may want to head to the south bay. the 45th annual boogie music festival kicks off tomorrow, and sunday in downtown campbell. almost two dozen bands will rock out on four stages along campbell avenue, beginning at 11 a.m. each day. a groovy highlight of the festival will be the best dressed contest. contestants will have to wear their finest 1970s and 1980s attire. now you can pre-purchase food and drink tickets to avoid long lines by going to the festival's website. in yountville, this weekend is

building with those metal barricades you see there. once that barricade was up, university workers went in and started clearing away the trash and belongings inside the building that protesters had been occupying. there's no there were no physical fights or any injuries reported. protesters chanted support for palestine in the war in gaza free, free, free, free, free palestine free now! none of the protesters spoke with the media. the people at the encampment said that they would only provide information about their cause and their demands. on their instagram page . the university confirms, though, that this group is different from the protesters, who set up an encampment near sproul hall a few weeks ago. that encampment was dismantled after a deal was reached with uc berkeley administrators, and the uc berkeley academic year has since ended with much of those protesters or student protesters having left. but uc berkeley says it considers the occupation of head hall a crime, not free speech, and says the 12 people who were arrested will likely be charged on suspicion of burglary, conspiracy and

vandalism. the university says it does plan to disclose the affiliations of those 12 people arrested. >> andre ali, thank you. meantime, classes on campus will resume today at uc irvine after being held remotely because of tense standoffs between police and protesters there. now, the protesters were ordered to leave an encampment after it was declared, quote, an unlawful assembly. 47 people were arrested, including students, uci employees and many people who are not affiliated with the university. >> new. this morning, for the first time, trucks carrying humanitarian aid for palestinians in the gaza strip have rolled across a pier built by the united states. today's shipment is the first in an operation that american military officials say could handle up to 150 truckloads a day. meanwhile, in washington, house republicans voted to pass a bill to reverse president biden's freeze on sending a shipment of weapons to israel as it plans to invade the southern gaza city of rafah. democrats are calling the bill a political stunt by republicans as as president biden defies the will of congress with his use of

executive privilege, he is brazenly doing so by withholding congressionally mandated aid. >> everything it calls for, the administration is already doing, and it is just yet another example of the republicans using israel and anti-semitism for their own political purposes every day. >> senate majority leader chuck schumer said the senate will not take up the legislation. the white house has already said the president will veto the bill if it makes it to his desk. >> well, israel defended its military operations in gaza at a hearing with the united nations top court and israeli officials saying they are taking action to avoid harming civilians as they carry out a military offensive in the southern city of rafah. >> that is why there has not been a large scale assault on rafah, but rather specific, limited and localized operations replaced with evacuation efforts and support for humanitarian activities. >> the international court of justice is holding a third round

of hearings on emergency measures requested by south africa. who wants the court to order a cease fire in gaza and ktvu coverage of the war in gaza , as well as the protests in the bay area, continues online on our website, ktvu.com. >> now to a developing story. the world's number one golfer has been arrested on charges of assaulting a police officer, cell phone video here shows authorities arresting scottie scheffler at the pga championship in louisville, kentucky. espn reports. there was a deadly crash near the golf course and that there may have been a misunderstood landing as scheffler drove past a police checkpoint to get inside the country club. when he was finally stopped, espn reports he was shoved against a car and handcuffed. authorities released a mugshot of scheffler and listed the charges against him, including second degree assault against a peace officer and reckless driving. police report that his vehicle dragged a detective who had to be hospitalized. scheffler has been released and is now playing the second round of the tournament. >> time now is 806 happening

a little bit of a problem. southbound 17 before 85. and one of the lanes there, there's a crash. so that's an unusual slowdown. if you're heading towards los gatos or santa cruz on 1789, let's go back to the desk. >> all right. a camera is rolling on a brutal and unprovoked attack in san francisco. what? the suspect's defense team says the video does not show. >> i feel like there's nothing i can do. all the security i put on and the warning signs and. and they don't care. >> people who live in one neighborhood in the oakland hills say brazen thieves are targeting their homes again and again. what they say makes them so vulnerable and why they can't control that key factor. then a quick reminder that you can now stream ktvu news on your smart tv, watch our live newscasts and get stories on demand on your amazon fire tv, roku, apple tv or android tv. just search r the fox

in oakland street who tell us the same thieves continue breaking into their homes. there have been three brazen home burglaries they've all happened

in broad daylight in the redwood heights neighborhood over a span of six weeks. home surveillance video capturing one of them earlier this week. and it shows two masked burglars running out of a home, one of them holding a pillowcase. the victim says it's filled with jewelry stolen from her bedroom. >> just bust in my home and take my things like it's no problem. it's terrifying. it's frustrating. >> while the people living on reinhardt drive say all three break-ins have been between the hours of noon and 4 p.m, and they say these bold thieves don't seem to care that anyone is seeing them break into these homes. >> they were, you know, certainly not put off by somebody seeing them commit a crime. it seems like this was kind of a normal practice for them. >> neighbors have taken a photo of what they say is the thieves car this black bmw sedan here, the people living on the streets suspect these homes close proximity to the highway. highway 13 and 580 make them a target for thieves. looking for

a quick getaway. >> we'll move across the bay here as the newest homeless count in san francisco shows mixed results. the city's point in time count shows total homelessness in san francisco increased by 7% from 2022 to 2024. there are more than 8300 people now experiencing homelessness in the city. this, according to city researchers. now, at the same time, city leaders point to the fact the number of people living on streets, in tents or on vehicles is actually on the decline. and we see that here. the number of people without shelter decreased by 1% since 2022, a whopping 16. if you compare it to the 2019 numbers, nearly half of the city's homeless population is currently sheltered. the city data also point out that youth homelessness has decreased by 9, but the number of families who are homeless has gone up sharply by 94% since 2022 to now, 437 families. the city also found that its chronically homeless population increased by 9. more than 2900 people have been identified as chronically homeless. >> the city of san francisco also says its new homeless

outreach program has connected thousands of people with help. during its first year. the city says the homeless engagement assistance response team, called heart for short, has responded to almost 14,000 calls, including 80% of calls to three one 1 or 9 one one involving unhoused people and 70% of calls related to sidewalk and street encampments. the city is currently sending other calls involving homeless people, including some for trespassing and suspicious persons. calls to the heart program at the state capitol, the senate and assembly appropriations committee sifted through more than a thousand bills and blocked many of them due to california's budget crunch in the state assembly, lawmakers passed bills that attempted to crack down on retail theft and a proposed constitutional amendment guaranteeing the right to clean air, water and environment committees, though blocked several high profile proposals, including one that was a step toward the legalization of psychedelics and another that was an attempt to establish a single payer health care system in california. >> i think it's no secret where the budget is today. you know, we have an obligation to balance

the budget here in california. we can't go into debt. so we have to be very judicious with the budget. i mean, we definitely there were bills that i have been big supporters of in years past, that it's just a challenging budget time. and so we needed to be responsible, responsible with taxpayers money. so that's why we had to make some tough calls today. >> just last week, the governor unveiled his proposed spending plan to address the budget deficit, estimated at more than $56 billion over the next two years. >> and one bill that did pass an important hurdle will require the state to issue a formal apology for slavery. that bill requires the state to apologize for its role in instituting slave laws and discriminatory practices. the bill is part of a package of measures introduced back in february, meant to bring reparations to descendants of people who were enslaved. it now heads to the state senate all right. >> 817 it's been so far, so good. let's not jinx it, sal. what do you see out there? >> i exactly agree, garcia. no news is good news. let's go out and see what we have. now, you

can see that the traffic on highway four still a little bit slow coming up to the concord side. i've been looking at chp list. we don't seem to have a lot going on at the bay bridge. 880, a little bit slow, san mateo bridge looks pretty good. there is one problem, and that would be southbound 17 before 85. they're clearing a crash, but they just cleared the lanes and, boom, the traffic is much better once they did that. 817 let's bring steve back in with today's weather. >> thank you, kind sir. yes, sir . all right, i don't usually talk about low clouds out to sacramento, but that's what we had today. and even into southern lake county. thank you, chloe, for that. that doesn't happen all that often. made it up to williams there. and even yuba city. looks like it's burning off, though, but even fairfield travis had cloudy skies. that's that's kind of rare all the way up to ukiah. however, there are some breaks now showing up, including in san francisco, which is starting to get some along the peninsula as well. you can see some of that

burning off menlo park, san mateo, south san francisco, into the city, glen park and ocean beach both reporting some sun. so there's a little bit out there. drizzle last 24 hours in park. bonnie doon, davenport, santa rosa to name just a few between .02 and almost a 10th of an inch 50s on the temps, 57 looks popular. san carlos, menlo park in mountain view you break through that fog, boom. the temp pops up, which is the same as vacaville boy. don't say that all the time. and may 17th, that's for sure. pittsburgh is in there. 57, kensington 52. though they were down to 49 at one time. clayton was also down to 49. now 53, north dublin was 50, now 53, castro valley 53. cool pattern. we're running about 2 to 5 degrees cooler than yesterday. this low up yonder up here will dig in. now the track is the key here. it may end up on the east side of the sierra, or it may end up a little bit more in eastern nevada. either way, it's what we call the heights. upper level heights are going to drop the thickness measure. the atmosphere is going

to drop. what does that mean, steve? cooler. it means cooler. morning fog, drizzle, sunny, breezy for some, we can't get around this pattern, and it favors a cooling. i think there'll be a big fog bank. saturday should clear out sunday, but a windy pattern as that low drops into nevada could not only give us more drizzle late tonight, tomorrow morning. but if you're going to the mountains, there's some hints that maybe some activity popping up there. truckee. kirkwood. mammoth. you get those boomers there, so keep that in mind if you are going up there. and also windy. i mean they had some mid 80s there. i think they'll be in the 60s though. on monday up in reno. thank you antonio for that as well. low overcast drizzle fog then sun. nice to mild, breezy to windy 50s 60s by the water. and then we'll go 70s inland and does not look very warm until maybe around tuesday or wednesday. next week we'll get a little pop steve thank you . >> many visitors to yosemite are no stranger to posting on social media, right? the fact they conquered a challenging hike or showcasing the natural beauty. but now there's a new reason to turn to instagram how it can help limit overcrowding at one of the country's most beautiful

that will play into cooler temps for us. should scour out. i think the fog and low clouds. but tonight. tomorrow i would expect more drizzle and then temperatures will stay mainly in the 60s and low to mid 70s at best. but look at up in the mountains starts early on monday into tuesday. so truckee, kirkwood, mammoth could be some activity popping up depending on the track of that low stratus quo. unless you have the sun already, then you're one of the, you know, fortunate, fortunate son daughter if you will, because most locations are dealing with the gray 50, 60, 70 on the temps here. in fact, i would not expect any warm up until maybe early next week, probably tuesday. >> thank you steve. a string of new movies hits theaters this weekend. how the story of a singer gone too soon is expected to draw crowds with a deep look into her music and what was ultimately her d nf l
