but they're making some big changes as alimentari opened to great fanfare in 2019, it was the casual spinoff of its wildly popular original and sister restaurant cfi.co, located upstairs. >> but in the last six months, owners matt brewer and david neufeld decided to absorb alimentari within kp co and closed its dinner service. in its current form, we still plan on keeping it for an event space, but in its current iteration it just is not sustainable. given you know, i think a lot of the rising costs, the decision which it announced on its instagram, comes months after alimentari cut prices by 20. >> it also recently cut its dine in fee in half, something it instituted to help ensure better wages and full benefits for workers in 2021. >> we have seen our payroll continue to rise. we can manage it as best we can, but when we're not seeing the additional

revenue come in, people are choosing not to dine out as much . and it's not just us. it's a citywide issue. >> one of its most striking costs is electricity. brewer said he used to pay about $7,000 a month to pg and e between two restaurants before the pandemic. that same bill is now about $11,000. the two ficos will merge upstairs and the downstairs operation will focus on to-go orders and serve cocktails as well. san francisco resident jessica roman is a loyal diner. >> we heard it was closing, which is devastating. a lot of people have moved out of the city. i feel like, you know, cfi.co attracted a lot of like corporate clients and there's fewer corporate dinners. >> ultimately, cfi.co said, it's committed to evolving and thriving in san francisco. >> we're bullish on the future of san francisco. we just know it's going to take a little bit of time right now. >> elsewhere, cfi.co is still expanding. it recently opened a market in menlo park, not far from its sister restaurant there, and the owners are

planning to open another cfi.co at the mission rock development in san francisco in 2025. in san francisco, betty yu ktvu, fox two news. >> thank you betty. well, today the state is expected to clarify language in a new law banning junk fees. the law will apply to fees for online ticket sales and hotel. it is also expected to apply to restaurants and bars that will be barred from adding service fees to the check after the meal. that has some restaurant owners fearful that they will have to raise prices by more than 50% to make up for the loss, potentially driving away customers. that law goes into effect july first. a passenger attacked by mike tyson on a flight out of san francisco in 2022, is now filing a lawsuit against the boxing legend. the suit was filed in san mateo county court, just a day before the two year statute of limitations ran out. melvin townsend claims he was sitting behind tyson and had friendly conversations with him on the flight. but then the suit says, tyson asked townsend's companion

for mushrooms, and when they declined. tyson started striking him. at the time the incident, both tyson and the victim requested charges not be filed. >> our time now for 30 for today, former president donald trump will campaign in wisconsin and in michigan. he's getting a one day break from his criminal trial in new york. now, yesterday, there was testimony by an attorney who negotiated the $130,000 payment for adult movie star stormy daniels to keep her from talking about her alleged affair with donald trump. the attorney said that while donald trump's lawyer, michael cohen, never said that he was negotiating for trump, he felt the implication was very clear. >> he still did not get that direct link connecting trump to this payment. that would put him squarely in the crosshairs of criminal jeopardy. >> now, the judge also fined donald trump $9,000 for violating the gag order that bans him from making public comments about witnesses and

about members of the jury. the trial is expected to continue at least another month, and don't forget, you can stay on top of all the latest developments with the trials involving the former president online. just go to ktvu.com. california attorney general rob bonta was in the south bay for a roundtable discussion to find ways to reduce gun violence. >> bonta met with community groups in west san jose to exchange ideas. one group, the partnership for safe communities, suggests a regional strategy. instead of cities working independently to try to curb gun violence, a lot of the same individuals who are engaging in gun violence in one city are also engaging in other types of violence, or even gun violence in other cities. >> and so our report was able to link that. >> bonta says efforts in california are working. the state's gun homicide rate is 30, below the rest of the united states. we have an update now this morning on a dead whale that washed ashore in alameda county earlier this month,

scientists say the gray whale was likely killed by the trauma after being hit by a boat. it was first spotted near crown beach on april 20th, scientists with the marine mammal center say a necropsy found the whale had a full stomach and injuries consistent with blunt force trauma. this is the first gray whale death recorded in the bay area this year. >> our time now for 37. the plans to permanently close part of san francisco's great highway are moving forward now. city officials unveiled their plan to close the one mile stretch of highway because of rising sea levels and erosion of the coast, city plans to build a mile long trail and a beachfront plaza. the full board of supervisors will vote on the permanent closure plan later this year, and if it's approved, that section of the great highway would close in 2026. >> for the second year in a row, san francisco is being recognized as the leader in clean energy. the american council for energy efficient economy revealed its annual

of a key policy meeting that will discuss inflation and interest rates. wall street does not anticipate any changes to rates at this time, but analysts hope for hints on when rates may be cut. some fear there won't be any changes to interest rates at all this year, ahead of the news. the markets are headed lower so far this morning. reports of fraud against seniors are on the rise in california, saw more complaints than any other state in 2023. the fbi says there was a 14% increase in claims nationwide, with more than 100,000 reported incidents of fraud against seniors. more than 11,000 were from california. the fbi says the most common scams involve phony tech support. someone makes contact with a senior saying something is wrong with their computer, gaining access to personal and banking information . >> the impact of these crimes can be devastating. seniors are

targeted for a reason, and they're targeted because they've been saving money their entire lives. so they're very attractive targets to these scammers. to lose all that money that they've saved literally their entire lives can be absolutely devastating. >> well, tech scams are the most common investment scams are the most costly, and the fbi urges people to always verify any outside contacts and not to click on any unfamiliar web links. a vote recount in district 16, the congressional race, getting closer to wrapping up evan low now leads joe simitian by just four votes after they were tied in march's primary election. >> but as ktvu lamonica peters tells us, there are still 16 ballots left to count. that could swing the final result. >> initial results from the march 5th runoff election for district 16 had both evan low and joe simitian tied for second place behind sam liccardo, so after the recount, evan low

gained 11 votes and joe simitian gained seven. under state law, three candidates would qualify for the ballot. now the second place tie could be broken on wednesday after san mateo county reviews 16 ballots in its recount. the likelihood of different outcomes has now changed. >> but really, what has happened overall is that everyone has a better appreciation of the power of their vote. >> a recount was requested on april 9th by former sam liccardo staffer jonathan padilla. any voter can request a recount, and santa clara county says its recount is open for the public to observe. votes were recounted by machine, and the registrar says human error led to miscalculations by machine operators. melissa michaelson is a political science professor at menlo college. >> i think this really just opens up a huge pandora's box of folks thinking, well, maybe those election results are wrong and making people question election results and wanting to

know more about whose votes were counted and whose votes weren't counted. >> the santa clara county registrar of voters says 45 uncounted ballots were challenged, and of those 45 ballots, 33 ballots were added or subtracted to the vote tally, and the remaining ballots were not accepted because they were either received too late. the signatures didn't match registration cards, or they lacked citizenship certifications. >> the whole thing is very unusual. obviously, we've never had something like this with a three way tie with three people from the same party where it's been, you know, such a big district where it could really change the outcome. >> all three candidates say they are waiting for the results from san mateo county, and the county says that they should have them. on wednesday afternoon. both counties will then send their results to the secretary of state for certification. lamonica peters ktvu, fox two news. >> thank you. lamonica california senator laphonza butler helped introduce a bill

to help increase voter registration among young people. the high school voter empowerment act would require states to designate public high schools as voter registration sites. the bill would also help schools get reimbursed for the cost of becoming a registration site through grants. the group representing more than 800 high schoolers nationwide, known as the voter initiative, is pushing the legislation, hoping to get more young people to vote. well, it looks like voters in solano county will vote this november on building a new city. the california forever campaign announced it is submitting more than 20,000 signatures of the 13,000 needed. once verified, voters will then decide this fall whether or not to allow urban development on land currently zoned for agriculture near rio vista. >> our time is 447. after years of california's population going down last year, the population actually grew. new estimates by the department of finance show

california's population grew in 2023 by 67,000 people. here in the bay area, four counties saw population increases contra costa county led the way with 1300 new residents. alameda county saw the biggest drop in population, with 8700 fewer people. >> california's gas tax will increase by $0.02, starting july 1st. it will rise to 59.6 cents a gallon. californians pay the highest gas tax in the country to go along with the highest gas prices, triple a shows the statewide average is close to 540 a gallon, with bay area prices about 560 a gallon. >> all right. pam thomas 448. the oakland a's will try to win their fourth straight game when they host the pittsburgh pirates tonight. now, last night, the a's beat the pirates 5 to 2 because of the bat of center fielder j.j. bleday. the score was tied when he hit the first of two homers. this is his first career multi-homer game. now the

giants today will try to bounce back from last night's shutout loss to the boston red sox. star pitcher logan webb pitched 19 straight scoreless innings, going into the game, but he never found his rhythm against the boston red sox. he only lasted three and two thirds innings in boston, beat the giants four to nothing. >> an unusual hero save the day for major league baseball fans, a swarm of bees took the field right before the start of the dodgers d-backs game in arizona yesterday. they made themselves at home on the net, right above the home plate, delaying the game for nearly two hours. take a look at the amount of bees there. the number of bees took them about two hours and local beekeeper saved the day. cleared the beehive, fans chanted. mvp to the beekeeper. he got to throw the ceremonial first pitch. all that buzz helped the arizona diamondbacks beat the dodgers 4 to 3. well the oakland

ballers now have a home for their first season. >> the team says the city council finalized approval for their plan to revitalize historic richmond park in west oakland. the ballers plan to spend $1.6 million to get the park ready for the 48 game season that begins in june. the park was originally established way back in 1896, making it one of the oldest parks in oakland. >> well, the bay area's new wnba team announced it has received 7000 season ticket deposits for its inaugural season. the team said it received 1000 of those deposits in the last week alone. they have the team still does not have a name, but it will be headquartered in oakland. they'll play their home games at chase center in san francisco, starting in 2025, and it's so fun to watch a game in chase center. yeah, and so it's so cool that the ladies will be there playing. love it. all right. let's check in with steve paulson. what are you looking at for the weather?

>> a nice warmer day is what i'm looking at here. santa rosa, walnut creek, menlo park, san jose. up we go on these forecast highs after yesterday's low to mid 70s. we'll bump you up a little bit more today 79 to 8077 and 76. that's the spirit san jose 76. but don't get used to it. huge changes on the way as we drop into saturday. temps will drop a good 15 almost 20 degrees as a really unseasonably deep system drops in and it looks like a rain as well. not just colder and windy series of lows up in the pacific northwest. it's kind of moved off. that's allowing our high to build in a little bit. still, though, 40, 50, some 30s to the north but more upper 50s 60s for some inland areas, but a lot of low 40s, mid 40s, 38 boulder creek. so, you know, hollister's 41 degrees felton, scotts valley, 42 so cal 43. then a lot of mid 40s around cupertino, santa clara, campbell and saratoga. the high will be with us today and tomorrow and then it'll start to get knocked off. the water temps are so darn cold i don't think it will take much to get that fog rolling. that'll probably be on friday and then cloudy colder with rain arriving

on saturday and not a little bit of rain. it looks pretty impressive for going into early may here, with almost an inch for santa rosa and concord. 59 100 san francisco three quarters in san jose, three quarters. look at the snow in the mountains. now. again, this is just one forecast model, but the gfs has been incredibly consistent, so i'm not going to back off from it now. nice wednesday clear morning. today's forecast is all about sunshine and warmer temps. once we get cranked up 6070 to a few near 80. >> all right thank you steve. a historic move by the federal government. the response from bay area dispensaries to the decision to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug. and capitola still recovering from winter storms. we'll tell you how it's looking at new ways to use that popular wharf after it was damaged last year

welcome back to mornings on two sunnyvale public safety officers are investigating a homicide. this is video from the citizen app. officers say they were called to south fernando avenue near east evelyn early yesterday morning. they found a man inside a car with gunshot wounds. and that victim died at the hospital. officials did not release any other information on the victim or a potential suspect. hundreds came out in north creek church in walnut creek to remember the life of an idaho sheriff's deputy from the bay area who was shot and killed in the line of duty. at his home church yesterday, friends and family watched a live stream of the memorial service for tobin boelter, taking place in idaho. before leaving california, he and his wife abby attended the church and she worked for the school. boelter was a cadet in

the walnut creek police department. he went on to be an officer with pleasant hill police before moving to idaho. >> we wanted to have an opportunity to bring the community together here at our church. those who are not able to go up to idaho to be in person, be able to watch here together in solidarity, to support the family, the boelter family. tobin and abby grew up here. they were married here. both of their families still attend here, and so this has been very impactful. >> during the ceremony, the ada county sheriff presented the family with a purple heart. deputy boelter was shot and killed by a driver. he pulled over for a traffic stop. he was just 27 years old. the fda investigating a multistate outbreak of e coli, potentially linked to organic walnuts, now 12 illnesses, including hospitalizations here in california, have been linked to organic walnut halves and pieces sold from gibson farms incorporated. there's the label the farm is located in

hollister. the fda says the walnuts in question were sold at natural food and co-op stores around the country. santa rosa is bringing back its weekly summer night markets starting next week. the night markets will be held at old courthouse square on wednesday nights from 5 to 8:30 p.m. they'll feature live music, vendors and a lot of food options. it is put on by a nonprofit group of local leaders and volunteers. the first night will run weekly through july 31st. residents in capitola share their thoughts on short term ways to the wharf can be used. they were at a town hall meeting and that's after a major storm damage last january forced the demolition of permanent structures on the wharf, including the wharf house restaurant and the boat and bait shop. the city is now exploring temporary uses while they finalize more permanent plans. some ideas include food vendors, beer and wine, and live entertainment. several people said the wharf should focus on its traditional uses. >> it's a wharf. it's a fishing and boating wharf. that's number

one. there should not be anything that should never be second to anything. >> now, the city says it does intend to lease a portion of the war for bait, tackle and boat rental. there will also be public bathrooms and other amenities. this year's outside lands festival is offering more than just music. couples can now get married on the festival grounds. festival goers can buy a package to host their wedding ceremony or renew their vows. reservations are now open. there are a limited number of spots available on the festival website. the three day event at san francisco's golden gate park runs august 9th through the 11th. well, may is national mental health awareness month, a great time to promote wellness.e best ways to keep spirits up is to unplug from social media. they warn mental health issues like eating disorders and body dysmorphia could worsen as artificial intelligence and filters become used more regularly. psychologists also recommend parents talk to your

kids about how the media they consume can negatively impact their thoughts. there's a lot of research that shows that engaging with appearance focused content is worse for us. >> so if it's very appearance focused, body focused, etc, those tend to be worse for mental health. >> the national institute of mental health estimates more than 1 in 5 adults are living with a mental illness and according to the national alliance on mental illness, 1 in 6 kids aged 6 to 17 experience a mental health disorder every year. >> well, an investigation in oakland wrapping up into why the city of oakland missed a deadline to apply for a grant that would help combat retail theft. we tell you what the city auditor says about why that deadline was missed. and dueling rallies in alameda county as a recall election is looming for alameda county's district attorney, the price tag for taxpayers as district attorney pamela price continues to call for an investigation from ktvu.

>> fox two news this is mornings on two. >> well, good morning to you and thank you for joining us. welcome to mornings on two. i'm dave clark. >> good morning i'm pam cook. it is wednesday the first day of may. may coming in pretty nice but maybe still some changes. as we head to the weekend. let's check in with steve paulson. >> no doubt. changes on the weekend, but today and tomorrow look good here. temperatures bumping up a little bit. we're starting off cool again. livermore is at 43 degrees. not as cold as yesterday, but it's still down there for some, 40s 50s on. the temps will end up bumping up mainly 70s, but i went with a couple of 80s well inland. i don't think they'll get there very long. it's clear out there. it'll be nice. 60s, 70s on the temps and temperatures should warm up tomorrow then. big change on the weekend. all right. sal is here at 5:00 in the morning to tell you and me what things are still laying out there. >> steve, the good thing is we don't have a the way we like it. nice and

boring for the commute. i'm sure it'll probably get a little more interesting later, let's go to the triple a traffic cameras, and you can see that traffic is moving along. okay. if you are driving through the area. there have been no major issues here at the bay bridge. at the bay bridge toll plaza itself looks good as you come through with no major issues here. looks like i'm having a little bit of an issue. okay, let's see there we go. all right. and let's talk about a little bit more here. you can see the traffic is moving well on the bay bridge. we're also looking at the richmond bridge. and you can see westbound traffic here is looking good at 501. let's get back to the headlines. >> all right. thank you sal los angeles police are now on the campus of ucla trying to break up the clashes between pro-palestinian and jewish demonstrators. now, a reporter from the cal matters news site, sergio olmos, recorded these fights between protesters. they

went in at of for about several hours before law enforcement finally broke things up, coming up in just about 15 minutes. we're going to have a live report from los angeles on the latest developments. >> okay, pam, time is now 502. poor leadership, poor management and poor communications. that's what an oakland city auditor says is the reason oakland city leaders missed a chance to get a $15 million grant from the state to combat organized retail theft, ktvu james torres has been investigating all of this, and he's with us now with the details of that auditor's report and the changes. oakland still has to make. good morning james. >> good morning dave. this is a report that we have been waiting for months now and essentially indicates and officially blames different city departments for how they missed out on that grant. it's a 37 page report. we've read every page of it at this point, and it details every step where the mayor's office,

city hall, the police department and other city staff missed their way to actually secure submitting a successful application. in it, the auditor identified four major missteps, calling the process to apply for the grant disjointed. acting city auditor michael houston reports a lack of leadership, a lack of project management, poor interdepartmental communication and a lack of grant management policy all contributed to the failure of this application. some of that falling on mayor shang tao. the report saying while the mayor isn't directly responsible for grant applications, she is responsible for offering guidance to the city administrator and could have, quote, exercised better leadership. it also puts the blame on opd, saying it originally took the lead on the grant, but ultimately forfeited that lead when other city departments stepped in, offering to lead the charge through a public records request, ktvu learned. police learned of the grant application last april, but took no meaningful action until days before the due date.

that's when the economic workforce development department stepped in and took the reins, according to the city auditor. of the 85 days, the application process was open, the city was only fully engaged for 16 city staff working on the grant were still submitting documents up until minutes before the deadline, with more than one person sharing just one login credential now. the report also mentions the number of people serving in interim positions during the application. that includes the city administrator, the police chief, as well as the economic workforce development director. it recommends the city hire a grants coordinator and implements a grant management policy. that's something that we've heard from mayor shang tao that, she says, would be the solution to make sure that this would never happen again. we know from the city auditor's report that has yet to happen. we are live this morning in oakland. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> all right, james, thank you. time is 504. in hayward, a person of interest is in jail

after he tried to escape the police and barricaded himself inside the home of a stranger. it happened last night around 5 p.m. near taylor and olympic avenues, east of interstate 80. police say the couple who lived at that house were actually inside the house when the suspect ran into their garage. they quickly ran out of the house and police started negotiating with that suspect to surrender. >> it was a lot of conversation. it was an excellent work by our negotiators who were in constant communication. some pa announcements, some phone conversation, and after a fair amount of time, he agreed to come out. >> now, police say the suspect is connected to a shooting and has outstanding warrants for his arrest. the police also said they recovered a gun near the scene. investigators are looking into whether that gun belonged to the suspect. but meantime, in oakland, several people are in jail after leading police on a

high speed chase. it started with a reported stolen car near 105th avenue and san leandro street in east oakland. the police tried to make a traffic stop, but the driver sped away and a police helicopter followed the car until the driver got out. at 35th avenue and interstate 580, only to get into another car. the two suspects eventually got out of the car and they tried to run away, but they were arrested by police. >> the effort to recall alameda county district attorney pamela price is moving forward. her opponents have gathered enough signatures for a vote. now, the board of supervisors has to set an election date. super visors have two options. they could either hold a special election that would cost 15 to $20 million, or or combine it with the november election for just about $4 million. the registrar of voters and price's attorney both want the vote in november if they want to move forward with the election, if they don't

agree that it's illegal, why would they do a special election? >> why would you waste $20 million to have an election that's going to be held like two months before the november election? >> supervisors will meet again may 14th to set a date. at the same time, the state of california has opened an investigation into alleged campaign disclosure violations in that recall effort. >> time is now 507. the us drug enforcement administration wants to reclassify cannabis as a less dangerous drug. right now, marijuana is listed as a. the da wants to reduce cannabis to schedule three. that's the same level as tylenol, with codeine dispensaries say, changing that schedule is a step in the right direction, especially for states where marijuana is still banned. >> like, you know how they say milk is, like bad for you nowadays, but back in the day they're like, oh, it's strong for your bones. and now we're hearing the hard truth. it's the

same thing with marijuana. they want to say it's a gateway drug enjoyment, pain relief, a way to get through the day and a way to see it. >> now, the aclu said that change is long overdue because there's a racial disparity when it comes to marijuana crimes. blacks are nearly four times more likely to be arrested than whites. >> today's may day, also known as international workers day, and there are several protests planned across the bay area. protests, marches and rallies are planned in several bay area cities. some are in response to the war in gaza and to support palestine. there are at least three planned in downtown san francisco, one in downtown oakland and another at the port of oakland. there's also a protest planned this afternoon in san jose. >> our time is now 508 today in fremont, a nurses union plans to hold a one day strike beginning at 7:00 this morning. nurses at washington hospital will stage a strike. they've b last

offer from the hospital. the union says the hospital's policies are discouraging nurses from working there. back in november, nurses were on picket lines. back then. we have tried to reach out to washington hospital to get a comment on this so far, we're still waiting ht, let's check in with steve paulson for a look at our forecast. where are you starting? i'm starting locally because it's going to be warmer today. >> it looks nice. it's clear out there. no fog that i can find. so we had some yesterday. santa clara valley, but i don't think so today. it looks good to go here. temperatures will be bumping up. not a lot, but a little bit here. doesn't take much once you get into may here, but mild to warm conditions. so we'll send some of these temps up. santa rosa, walnut creek, menlo park, san jose 79, 80, 77

and 76. if today isn't the warmest, then tomorrow will be for big changes. arrive on saturday. i know many of you have plans, but i would either cancel, postpone or have a plan b ready to go. it does look much colder and also rain looks to be on the way here. water temps incredibly cold here. point raise was 49, now 50 san francisco bowie still 49. if temps get to near, i spend my experience here so far this early season. upper 70s 80s and the fog bank comes roaring in at about 48 hours. and i think that'll happen on friday. a couple of lows that went through in the pacific northwest have moved off, so that's allowing the high to build in a little bit. a few 30s, 40s, 50s on the temps. 42 san anheir 40s, mid 4s cold as yesterday, but still ukiah, upper lake in the 30s again. so cold. mendocino county, lake county, boulder creek, santa cruz mountains is also at 38 but looks nice today. temperatures will bump up sunny and warmer today. tomorrow, transition day friday. everything says rain arrives on saturday and not sprinkles. it

looks like rain, not showers. it looks like rain. so and look at the here. now again there's just one forecast model but the gfs are. our global model has been incredibly consistent for about five days now. so i'm not i'm using it. i'm hanging my hat on it which is always a leap of faith. but it's been really good lately. so nice today. temperatures bumping up sunshine for all, wall to wall sunshine as we like to say 6072 a few near 80. >> all right steve, thank you. time is now 511 an update from the south bay a vote recount in the district 16 congressional race is close to wrapping up. we'll tell you how close the to count. 20 ballots remaining >> violence on the campus of ucla overnight as dueling protesters attack each other. we're live from the campus in just minutes with an update

turned violent overnight on the campus of ucla. you're looking at some of that video right now. it took hours, but law enforcement finally arrived on campus to try to restore order. now we want to check in with reporter mario ramirez joining us live from los angeles with the latest developments. good morning mario. let us know where you are and what the situation is right now. >> pam, good morning to you.

we're at ucla's westwood campus here, and we're on the south side of campus near the school of law. i want to show you first where the demonstration is happening that we've been covering since thursday of last week. well the recent demonstration here overnight included about 100 to 200 people. and that is where they've been gathered. the quad just outside of royce hall early thursday morning, they started setting up dozens of tents, supply tables, and they encouraged people to come out and join in this pro-palestinian demonstration. now, shortly after they were set up, they were met with counter demonstrations and things have been getting more and more heated day by day between those dueling demonstrators and what you're looking at here a little farther down to the south of campus is the police response. we just saw a lot of lapd vehicles leaving the scene and more sheriff's vehicles arriving. a total of at least four agencies in response to the violence that broke out here from these protesters. now we have some video showing you some

of that activity. we can tell you that at the request of ucla, the lapd did send units to help the university's public safety department, the public safety team, and they were overwhelmed. at one point, the lapd deployed a helicopter up above to keep an eye on the crowds. the department says that response came after multiple reports of late last week. security was already ramped up because of the tension here between some of those groups and shortly after the lapd's response, we also saw california highway patrol officers arriving on campus in riot gear. and we spoke to a guy a short time ago who says he was reporting for the daily bruin. that's the student run newspaper here on campus. and he says he and his editor were attacked by a group of six. so things are heated. we can tell you on campus that no one appears to have been taken into custody or arrested by law enforcement. and we also spoke to students who say they're a bit surprised and disappointed by the delay in the response that violence, those few fights and scuffles that we

saw in the crowd, that went on for hours they saw law enforcement arrive here. and that's when things started to calm down. but the demonstration continues, and the law enforcement is standing by here on campus. that's the latest here in westwood. pam, send it back to you, mario, really quick before you go. >> also, because i know the campus, that campus ucla up here ac something much more they've constructed, you know, camps and buildings and they're obstructing you know, students and the university's business, as well as creating a safety issue. so is their word that they will try to completely clear the protest from campus. >> well, it seems like they're getting more and more strict. they're giving out a warning that anyone who is not affiliated with the school, who is taking part could face misdemeanor charges, and students could be suspended if they are caught in that

activity, that violent activity. but we can tell you this is a public access school. so unlike other college campuses here locally like usc, a private campus with gates surrounding it, people are allowed to come and peacefully assemble here on campus. so it's really been a tough line to distinguish when they can't allow people here on campus to demonstrate like they have been. but as the days go on, it does seem to be getting more and more violent. >> all right, we'll certainly keep an eye on this. thank you for that live report from the ucla campus. we'll continue to see certainly as as classes begin this morning. might be a different story. mario. thank you. we'll up here. you can also stay up to date any time of day

i missed something, i think the traffic is okay and i'm not jive talking. i understand. >> i see what you did there. you know steve, and we're just staying alive out there, folks. right now it is backed up all the way out to the macarthur maze and the metering lights are on. but it is not a terrible commute. i like what i see, and for the most part, you can see the traffic is moving along pretty well across all the bridges. our triple a traffic cameras are showing things southbound 880. at 92 there was a crash, but the san mateo bridge traffic is okay so far. 601 let's get back to the desk. >> okay, sal. thank you. well, are still developing story overnight. the campus of ucla still has a very large law enforcement presence. >> it got very tense overnight. it comes after protesters clashed at the site of a camp that had been set up there on campus. ktvu is ali rasmus joins us now with the update. >> ali well, things appear to

have quieted a bit hours after los angeles police and the chp were brought in. we can show you a live picture right now from the ucla campus. within the past couple of hours. sorry, this is not a live picture. this is video from earlier in the day. yesterday, police in riot gear came in to break up the violence between rival groups. the encampment, or at least part of it is still there. tensions came to a head in the middle of the night with fist fights and people with sticks and wooden boards taking swings at one another. this is video taken by a cal matters reporter at the scene of the ucla encampment overnight. the violence broke out hours after ucla administrators told pro-palestinian protesters their encampment was unlawful and had to be broken down. they did not leave. and then around 2:00 this morning, a group of counter-protesters showed up and started throwing things into the encampment and trying to break down the barricades that protesters had set up. ucla's daily news site, the daily bruin, posted on social media video of someone firing a

firework into the pro-palestine encampment. other video from reporters at the scene showed people rinsing their eyes out after mace and pepper spray was sprayed during those fights. now, we don't know yet about any injuries or arrests. the encampment on the ucla campus is still there, but it appears the counter-protesters have gone. and as you saw there, there is still a continued law enforcement presence on the campus right now. so we'll continue to update the story throughout mornings on two. dave. >> all right, ali. thank you. meantime, during the night, police in new york cleared the campus of columbia university of a pro-palestinian encampment. >> that's crazy. it's just crazy . >> hundreds of police officers in riot gear marched onto the campus. they removed demonstrators, some of whom broke into a school administration building. about 50 people were arrested. university officials say the police were allowed onto the campus to restore safety and order. >> the university allowed this to fester for two weeks. they

allowed these so-called protesters illegal encampment people to go out there and violate the university policy and the laws of new york city. >> now, the mayor of new york said, quote, professional outside agitators who are not affiliated with columbia had taken over the protest and were creating a public safety problem . and over at new york city college, police removed a palestinian flag that was hanging from the flagpole on the main campus. and an american flag was once again raised on that flagpole. the deputy commissioner of the nypd posted this video on social media with the caption, an incredible scene and proud moment as we have assisted city college in restoring order on campus, culminating in raising old glory once again on their campus flagpole on capitol hill. >> the college campus protests have become a top issue, with more congressional hearings expected to investigate the way colleges are handling the claims johnson, the speaker of the house, said that this week he

will bring to the house floor a bill to respond to the nationwide protests. this could lead to criminal charges for the protesters and allow lawmakers to slash federal funding to the universities that don't control anti-semitic behavior. now you can follow all of our coverage of the college protests online. we have updates any time of day on the protests, the arrests and the reaction from the university and the students. all online@ktvu.com. >> all right, pam, time is 605 new this morning. secretary of state anthony blinken is in israel right now. he's meeting with israeli leaders pushing for a cease fire deal between israel and hamas. as secretary blinken met with israeli president isaac herzog, telling him that the united states is pushing hamas to accept the cease fire proposal that calls for the release of more hostages and provides humanitarian aid for gaza. secretary of state blinken also talked to the families of some of the hostages. is bringing your loved ones home,

is at the heart of everything we're trying to do and we will not rest until everyone man, woman, soldier, civilian, young, old is back home. now, this is anthony blinken, seventh visit to the middle east since the war began between israel and hamas on october 7th. >> today is may day, also known as international workers day. and there are several protests planned across the bay area. protests marches and rallies are planned in several cities. some are in response to the war in gaza and to support palestine. there are at least three planned in downtown san francisco, one in downtown oakland and another at the port of oakland. there is also a protest planned this afternoon in san jose. >> time is now 606. more than three dozen people were hurt after a bus collided with a light rail train in southern california. it happened yesterday, around noon near usc. the fire department said more

than 150 people were on the train when that crash occurred. 16 passengers were taken to the hospital for treatment. almost 40 others were treated right there at the scene, the oakland city auditor says a lack of project management caused the city to miss applying for a $15 million state grant to address retail theft. >> now, the investigation found oakland police originally took responsibility for the grant. another city staffer independently began work on a submission, and with 11 days left to submit, the first meeting was held with the opd and city agencies. on the afternoon of the grant deadline, two different sets of staff were unable to upload portions of the application in time. we'll have a live report coming up with more of these details at 630. >> all right, pam, time now. 607 in the police and then barricading himself inside the home of a stranger. now this happened near taylor and olympic avenues east of interstate 880,

about 5:00 last night. police say the couple who lived in that house were actually inside the house when the suspect ran into their garage. they quickly ran out of the house and police started negotiating with the suspect to surrender. >> it was a lot of conversation. it was an excellent work by our negotiators who were in constant communication. some pa announcements, some phone conversation, and after a fair amount of time, he agreed to come out. >> now, police say that suspect is connected to a shooting and he has outstanding warrants for his arrest. they also say they recovered a gun near the scene. investigators want to know whether that gun belonged to the suspect. meantime, in oakland, several people are in jail after leading police on a high speed chase. now, it started with a reported stolen car near 105th avenue and san leandro street in east oakland. the police tried to make a traffic stop, but the driver sped away. a police

helicopter followed that car until the driver got out at 35th avenue and interstate 580, and got into another car. the two suspects eventually got out of the car and they tried to run away, but they were arrested by police this morning, mill valley to move cars out of the canyon neighborhood during an emergency. >> the mill valley police department worked with the public works department to perform the drill at 4:00 this morning. now they set up traffic control patterns on several roads as part of an evacuation drill in which everyone would be asked to leave the city. >> it's not just wildfire, you know, there's mudslides and there's flooding and there's all those other things. so it's good to be prepared, so although we hope this never happens, we want to make sure that our staff is prepared to do what's necessary to expedite it and to keep our, our people safe if they do need to get out of town. >> the drill wrapped up in just about an hour and all roads are

now back to normal. our time now 609 happening today. >> contra costa county fire officials plan a prescribed burn to protect communities from wildfires. it's part of the lafayette walnut creek shaded fuel break project. it's expected to reduce the risk of wildfires in the area. authorities say this will encompass 268 acres along 11 miles of open space in the east bay, residents living and working in the area, you're advised, keep your doors and windows closed during the daytime hours to reduce the possibility of smoke getting into your house. >> all right, 610 is the time. back over to sal. what are you keeping an eye on for the commute? >> well, things are beginning to get a little more crowded out there. pam. dave, good morning to you. let's go first to highway four. yesterday we had some issues there and you can see highway four is slow out of pittsburgh eastbound. we do have some roadwork heading out toward antioch. there's going to be about a miles worth of slow traffic there. bay bridge backed up almost to the maze. metering lights are on. you can see from

our triple-a traffic camera and 580 westbound is slow over the altamont pass. but when you get to the main part of livermore, it looks good to pleasanton. southbound 880, they cleared a crash near 92. there's some slowing in that area. at 610. let's go back to the desk. >> all right. thank you. sal. the plan for a new city appears to be on its way to the november ballot, the latest milestone reached by the group behind california forever and cannabis has been legal in california for to update the regulations around it nationwide. how the biden administration wants to reclassify laws around marijuana and how that could affect pot shots here in the bay

change in the nation's drug policy. >> the biden administration wants to reclassify cannabis as a less dangerous drug. ktvu is andre senior, joining us now with the ripple effects expected across the country. andre. pam. >> dave, the biden administration was moving towards this historic step. president biden had first called for a review of federal marijuana laws back in october of 2022, and then issued pardons to thousands of americans convicted of simple drug possession, political analysts say. reclassifying marijuana as the biggest policy change by the u.s. drug enforcement administration in more than 50 years. right now, cannabis is considered a schedule one controlled substance similar to

heroin and lsd. the feds want to lower marijuana to schedule three, which is the same level as ketamine and even tylenol with codeine. >> like, you know how they say milk is, like bad for you nowadays, but back in the day, they're like, it's strong for your bones. and now we're hearing the hard truth. it's the same thing with marijuana. they want to say it's a gateway drug enjoyment, pain relief, a way to get through the day and a way to see it. >> now, the aclu says this change is long overdue because there is a racial disparity when it comes to marijuana and crimes. black and african american people are almost four times more likely to get arrested than white american residents. >> the only way to remedy the most concerning consequences of marijuana prohibition is to deschedule marijuana altogether. >> but opponents of the idea say rescheduling is not necessary and can lead to harmful unintended side effects like drug abuse. the white house

office of management and budget must next sign off on this proposal. the dea will then take public comment on this plan before issuing final rules. now, in states where pot is legal, dispensaries and retail shops this year are expected to take in more than $32 million or billion dollars, rather, in sales. pam >> all right. thank you. andre. vendors have new rules to follow in san francisco. the board of supervisors passed an ordinance that expands the city's crackdown on illegal street vending. now, the ordinance clarifies the permit application process and requires certain vendors to register with the tax collector and pay fees. it also bans the vendors from selling in residential districts. the ordinance follows the 90 day moratorium on street vending on mission street. >> our time now 616 today in fremont, a nurses union plans to hold a one day strike. in fact, in less than an hour from right now, nurses at washington hospital will stage a strike. they've been negotiating with the hospital and the union

membership rejected the latest offer from the hospital. the nurses union says the hospital's policies are discouraged. young nurses from working there. now, we've reached out to washington hospital to get a comment. we're still waiting to hear back from them. >> some good news. ferry service between sausalito and san francisco will resume later today. successful repair work on the sausalito pier was complete back on april 19th. the ferry service stopped when damage to the pier was found by inspectors. contractors were brought in to repair it. then the pier was re inspected before being declared safe for the ferry to start sailing again. today, that first ferry is set to depart just after 7:00. >> all right. well, sal already sal sailing along, watching our commute right now. what's happening on the roads so far? >> i see what you did there, dave. it is kind of sailing along, but, you know, we don't have a huge commute. we have people getting on the road for sure. i'm sure that will change. so if you're getting on the road early, you can see there's

already a bigger backup coming in from the altamont pass to livermore. and we also have a little slowing in hayward. not all that slow, though. we still have what i consider a pretty good commute if you want to get out there early. triple a traffic camera showing us the bay bridge, you can see that traffic is moving along a relatively well. there have been no major issues here. if you are driving onto the bay bridge, you can see though it is crowded. it started getting crowded at about 545. let's go to another one of these triple a traffic cameras here, and i want to show you the richmond bridge. getting a little bit of a backup here as you approach westbound. 618. now let's talk about the weather. here's steve. >> thank you, kind sir. yes, sir. all right. clear this morning. little cool for some. not bad for others, but still a few 30s. we're going from 30s 40s to upper 50s. brentwood. vacaville. vacaville was 47 at this time yesterday. there are 58 this morning. but menlo park is down to 41 kelseyville 47. i did see a few 30s in the santa cruz mountains, boulder creek,

as well as at 37. high pressure will win out for today and tomorrow. it's not that strong, but we will get a bump up on temps. sunny and warmer. will be in town today and tomorrow. then a huge change for the weekend. cloudy, colder rain arrives. i have plans saturday. i know i would have a plan b postpone it, change it. something. we can fine tune this. we get a little closer, but forecast models continue to paint a wet pattern for saturday and a colder one with snow in the mountains. i mean not a dusting. maybe a foot today though. nice wednesday. it'll be nice on thursday as well. sunshine for all and warmer 60s 70s 80s transition day. that means fog will come back on friday and then a huge change on the weekend. >> cash payments to hundreds of people living in one bay area city. we'll tell you who could qualify for the monthly $1,000 payment. and the big tech company behind the initiative. but first progress being made in district 16 that congressional race recount will tell you who's now in the lead for second place with less than 20 votes to count

county registrar of voters says it has completed its recount, which put evan low ahead of joe simitian by four votes. but in san mateo county, there are 16

ballots still in question. they arrived after the deadline, but the county and postal service are investigating the postmarks on the envelopes to decide if they should be opened and counted. >> the whole thing is very unusual. obviously, we've never had something like this with a three way tie with three people from the same party where it's been, you know, such a big district where it could really change the outcome. >> the initial results of the march election had both evan low and joe simitian tied for second place, behind sam liccardo. if the recount results break that tie, either simitian or low would then go on to run against liccardo, who came in first, and that will be in the november election. today's state senator, steve glazer, says he is going to announce a proposed, quote, rescue plan for independent newsrooms. glazer posted a chart showing how ad revenue has dropped significantly for newspapers, while online advertising has increased dramatically. glazer says he

will unveil his plan at 11:00 today. san francisco has been awarded more than $37 million in state funding for affordable housing in the mission district. the money provides the final funding necessary for the development of 168 new affordable homes on shotwell street, right near garfield square. the housing is being built for low income families. formerly homeless, and people who have been living with hiv. there are also income limits on that. the national park service has awarded a $750,000 grant to restore the historic admiral's mansion on mare island. the city hopes it will find a use as a venue for cultural or educational purposes. the grant also requires the city to provide matching funds with money going to preserve saint peter's chapel, also on mare island. one neighborhood in east oakland is banding together nearly one year after the shooting death of a neighbor last june, 60 year old david schneider was randomly shot and killed while trimming trees in

his front yard in maxwell park. now, almost one year later, police have not connected any suspects to that murder. neighbors are now taking matters into their own hands, lighting up the dark roads and adding cameras to deter criminals. >> it just really, struck the whole community. it activated us . we felt, you know, upset and scared. and so we all came together to try and think about how we could, make this community safer. >> neighbors plan to buy cameras for everyone, even if they can't afford them on their own. we reached out to oakland police and says that there is no update on that case of the man who was shot and killed. law enforcement deployed to ucla campus this morning, breaking up violent protests in the fight over gaza. still to come, we are live in ucla at ucla in los angeles. a check on how this all started and where it stands right now.

but first, an auditor has found who in oakland was responsible for missing out on a $15 million grant. ktvu james torres has more on the fallout and what's at stake

multi-million dollar state grant that would have helped the city fight retail crime. today we're finding out who dropped the ball and another well known san francisco business changing the way it operates and conducts business. a closer look at the cost of running a business is wages, costs of. >> from ktvu, fox two news. this is mornings on two. >> all right. as we take you live to the opening bell this morning, johnson and johnson announced it will pay $6.5 billion to settle thousands of lawsuits involving its talcum powder. the lawsuits claim the products caused over korean cancer. viking getting ready to ring that bell right now. right on cue. thank you, thank you. you're the applause. >> you know that markets are

headed lower right now ahead of the latest fed meeting, which wraps up later today. >> in just a few hours. no expectation that interest rates will be cut, but some hope that we will hear about when there might be an interest rate cut. there's that bell ringing live and it really sounds like we might not see an interest rate cut all year, so we'll get more on that coming up. thank you for joining us here on morning sun two i'm pam cook and good morning i'm dave clark. >> it's wednesday the very first day of the month of may. we're right here. >> happy may day. >> happy may day to you two. >> sounds like a nice warm day as well as may comes in. steve paulson has our forecast. >> that is correct today and tomorrow. it's clear out there. it's a little cool, but we'll end up with lots of sunshine and temperatures. coast bay and inland should all bump up a little bit here. but another morning with a lot of 40s though, 42 palo alto, but most locations there clear san jose always says partly cloudy. you got to fix that. but otherwise looks good to go here on 1st of

may and everything looks good to go here. lots of sunshine, maybe late afternoon breeze, but i think less than what we've had the last couple of days. highs today, 60s and 70s. well, hopefully see the morning commute is more of a holiday and not a heartbreaker. >> no it's not, it's not exactly a holiday, but it's not a heartbreaker. somewhere in between. steve it's certainly not a tragedy either. we have some of those days, but right now it looks okay. let's go to the richmond bridge and the triple a traffic camera. you can see that traffic is moving along very well, no. no major problems here as you drive on interstate 880 and traffic is moving along. okay. on the san mateo bridge, it looks like it could be a pretty good commute. if you look at the east bay in general, it's moderately heavy. the bay bridge toll plaza is backed up for about a 10 to 15 minute delay. 631 let's go back to the desk. >> all right, sal, thank you. well, poor leadership, poor management and poor

communications. that's what an oakland city auditor says is the reason oakland city leaders missed a chance to get a multi-million dollar grant to combat organized retail theft. ktvu james torres has been investigating this. he's with us now with the details of that auditor's report and the changes. the city of oakland still has to make. good morning james. >> dave, good morning to you. it's a 37 page report that was just released earlier this week, something we have been waiting on for months now. the city auditor saying that he has been investigating this since last october. this report essentially details every step that kind of went wrong within city hall, the mayor's office, the police department, and other city staff who could not successfully complete an organized retail theft grant proposal application that was offered by the state. and in it, the auditor identified four major missteps that led ultimately to that blunder. acting city auditor michael houston reports that the process of applying for the

grant was, quote, disjointed, saying there was a lack of leadership, a lack of project management, poor interdepartmental communication, and a lack of a grant management policy. some of that, he writes, falls on mayor xiang tao. the report says while the mayor is not directly responsible for grant applications, she is responsible for offering guidance to the city administrator, who usually is in charge of that. and she could have, quote, exercised better leadership. it also puts some blame on opd, saying the department originally took the lead on the grant early on, but ultimately forfeited that lead when other city departments stepped in, offering to lead the charge through a public records request, ktvu learned. police found out about the grant application last april, but took no meaningful action until days before the due date. that's when the economic workforce development department stepped in and took the reins, according to the city auditor. of the 85 days, the application process was open, the city was only

fully engaged for about 16 days. city staff working on the grant were still submitting documents up until minutes before the deadline, with more than one person sharing a single login credential. now the port. the report also mentions the number of people serving in interim positions during the application process. that includes the city administrator, the police chief, as well as the cdd director. it recommends the city hire a grants coordinator to implement a new grants management policy, something that we have heard plenty from mayor shang tao. that was something she addressed back in her october state of the city address. but as we learned in this city auditor's report, which has a city administrator's response, none of those hires have happened yet. we're live this morning in oakland. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> thank you, james, for that update. and italian restaurant in san francisco is merging with its parent company. chef nico made the announcement on instagram after slashing prices

by as much as 20% over the last several months. now, the owners decided to merge with its sister restaurant in the same building. they say things were going well before the pandemic, but the cost of doing business in san francisco is just too high. we still plan on keeping it for an event space, but in its current iteration, it just is not sustainable. given you know, i think a lot of the rising costs, we have seen our payroll continue to rise. we can manage it as best we can, but when we're not seeing the additional revenue come in, people are choosing not to dine out as much. and it's not just us. it's a citywide issue. >> now, under the new operation, the restaurant will move upstairs. the downstairs level will serve cocktails and will handle to go orders. today, the state is expected to clarify language in a new law banning junk fees. the law will apply to fees for online ticket sales and hotels. it's also expected to apply to restaurants and bars, which will be barred from adding service fees to the check after the meal. that has some

restaurant owners fearful that they will have to raise prices by more than 50% to make up for the loss, potentially driving away customers. the law goes into effect july 1st. >> our time now. 635 voters in solano county may have the final word on a new community is going to be created in that county. a group backed by tech entrepreneurs has been working on a project called california forever. they want to build a development of homes and green space between travis air force base and rio vista in the sacramento river delta. organizers submitted more than 20,000 signatures to put the proposal on the november ballot. they need about 13,000 verified signatures in order to qualify. >> the new community would be a sustainable, walkable community, a complete community with good paying jobs and homes at all price points for rent and for sale. >> people from all walks of life have come together in opposition. democrats

republicans, farmers, city workers, blue collar, white collar. >> now, if the project is approved, there will have to be an environmental impact report and then a development agreement with solano county. the groundbreaking could possibly begin in 2027, and several hundred thousand people could eventually live there. but critics worry about traffic, about water rights and the lack of affordable housing. >> a new program in san francisco is handing out $1,000 monthly cash payments. as a to study how guaranteed basic income impacts bay area families, the program is called it all adds up, and it's funded largely by google cash. payments will go to 450 san francisco families who recently experienced homelessness. half of the families will get $1,000, the other will get $50. they can use the money however they want. afterwards, researchers will see how each family used that money to help their monthly budget. some state lawmakers are pushing

to hand out cash to high school seniors and recent graduates who are experiencing homelessness. a current bill working through the state legislature would provide them $1,000 each a month for five total months. the money is meant to help them enroll in college or enter the workforce. >> all right, pam, time is now 638, right back to soundcast sonata. he'll help you get to where you need to go. what's happening out there now? >> it's getting more crowded out there. we don't have as many serious incidents today as we did yesterday at this time. right now we do have a commute here that is looking okay on the richmond bridge, but it's a little slow and the backup is beginning to build. it's getting, you know, it's getting a little bit longer by the minute here. as you drive through. let's talk about interstate 880 in oakland. that still looks pretty good. and the san mateo bridge traffic is okay. of course, we always have to look at the bay bridge toll plaza and all of these triple a traffic cameras are showing a

pretty good congested commute. however on this wednesday, it could be a lot worse, that's for sure. i'm not saying you should be dancing, steve, but we're not . >> you know, we're not too bad. i'm just staying alive. you know, the best i can. >> i understand, you know what i mean? >> i understand. >> i started a joke, i got the whole world laughing once i got to get a message out to you. >> that's enough. there you go. all right. thank you, sir. all right, we'll we'll be at the comedy factory saturday night, sit in the front row, tickets are sold out. yeah. thank you. sro, we do have clear skies. it looks good out there. we do have temperatures that will be bumping up sunny and warmer in town, dave. you know, sunny and warmer. >> yeah. they're great. >> i'm glad they're here in town. they'll be in town, cloudy , colder. rain arrives saturday. yes, it does look like rain. not sprinkles. just no way around it. temperatures will drop a good 15. maybe 20 degrees. believe it or not. with snow in the mountains. and i mean not a dusting. it looks like a foot for some. today's nice. tomorrow's nice sunshine will be

all over 60s, 7080s. wall to wall sun today, tomorrow, transition day, friday. fog will be back. and then big changes on the weekend. alrighty. >> time now 639. during the night, protesters and counter protesters clashed on the campus of ucla. we're going to bring you a live report from los angeles and show you the police response. >> all right. it's been quite a morning. first, let's check in with garcia for the other stories we are following for you as well. good morning. >> good morning. we'll add to your coverage of the protests here at ucla and elsewhere around the country. we'll also focus on rising costs for ratepayers here at home and efforts to underground power lines. pga is looking into selling off part of its facilities now. so new at seven. the power plant it's considering selling and the effect that move could have on rates. then tech companies for the large part continue to say artificial intelligence is the future. but that isn't keeping them out of court. the new lawsuit against the makers of chatgpt that accuses that company of copyright infringement. we'll be back

are struggling. others are finding success center. cal
