Alex quintana had surgery on his broken leg after an encounter with dirt bike riders and atvs doing stunts on 101 in San Francisco wednesday turned violent. He says he tried to drive around a rider slowly. For some reason he thought i was going to try to run into him. And somehow that got relayed to his friends but first he had punched my rear view mirror on the righthand side. He said someone punched the other mirror, he believed there was damage. I told him to pull over to the right to the righthand side to the shoulder. He soez one rider broke his passenger window and though investigators later told him if there was a next time he shouldnt get out. In the moment he made that decision. Glass started flying at me and thats whenever i got out of the car. Probably wasnt the brightest thing, but i didnt want them to come to the other side and break the window and cause anymore damage, so as i got out, they started kicking and vandal lizing my car. The 35yearold modesto man had just dropped off a passenger and was heading to the airport. They were continuing to hit me and as the riders were taking off, the original guy that was blocking traffic, he looked back at me straight in the eyes and turned around his motorcycle and ran my leg over. Hes grateful an off duty firefighter and witnesses came to his aid. Now hes helping the cell phone video will bring this to an end. These guys need to go to jail. Christi smith nbc bay area news.

He says his wife went hiking thursday afternoon with her australian shepard named camaro and that was the last time he saw the two. They were on vacation with their son and had been staying at a nearby airbnb. She wanted to go kind of look around and do some hiking and stuff like that. She was considered high risk because she sufrsz from early onset dementia and has type 2 diabetes. Shes gone in the past a few days without insurance sloin we werent concerned about that but the lack of food and water, that was huge. He says his wife became lost and disoriented. She only thought she was tlup for a someday. Mike mckinney was among the group of volunteers who first spotted her and her beloved pet. When we called out for her we heard her yell back and a couple seconds later we heard the dog bark. So camaro did his job. She was sitting up, shivering, very dehydrated rewanted water.

Its the first known Security Breach at the white house since President Trump took office. And the intruder is from the south day, 26yearold Jonathan Tran was in court yesterday. Hes accused of scaling a security fence between the white house and the Treasury Building friday night. He wasnt stopped until he reached the south grounds of the white house. Very close to the mansion where President Trump was spending the night. According to court documents, tran was carrying two cans of mace, a book written by mr. Trump, and a letter to the president in the that letter he mentioned something about russian hackers. Trans neighbors are stunned by this. Its crazy to know that somebody would scale the white house fence and be so close to me. Officials say tran has no criminal history and was arrested without incident. A teacher who allegedly humiliated students for taking part in an immigration protest has been fired. She sent out a letter to parents notifying them that the teachers last day with the strict was on march 9th. A substitute is taking over while a permanent replacement is found. Students who took part in the National Protest called a day without immigrants last month say they came back to class only to face ridicule. She said the thing they did was stupid and dumb. She was so happy to work a day without any immigrant. And, of course, we got really upset. Some parents say they will see the teachers termination as a victory but theyre worried she will simply end up at another school. They were unified as a reminder of students, parents and staff that its a safe haven for all immigrants regardless of legal status. They served their kunlt and were yet deported. The deported u. S. Military veterans and now newly proposed lenl slags in washington, d. C. We have a move by local congress twoon let those deported veterans back in. After our investigation aired last month we heard from many viewers outraged that the u. S. Government policy would result in u. S. Veterans who are noncitizens being kicked out of the country after running into trouble with the law. Today, several u. S. Congressmen, including one congressmen from the east bay, introduced a new bill until congress it change that policy. Our investigation found dozens of families split apart like enreek i can sal lis and stephanie. Split apart because of a policy that was first implemented during the bill Clinton Administration and upheld through three subsequent president sies. These men are good enough to serve our country but once they make a mistake, then, you know, they dont they dont get any second chances. We found hundreds of deported American Military veterans, veterans who had served the u. S. As noncitizens who had been honorably discharged from the service but then later deported for committing crimes classified as aggravated felonies. Crimes like drug possession, failure to show up in court, or entering the country illegally. I didnt realize how bad it is and what a terrible injustice it is. Its really a very poor reflection of the United States that we ask people to do this and then the consequence, particularly of of your stories can gressman of walnut creek saw our investigation and said we had to act. Okay. We need to fix it. Tuesday he joined congressman of arizona coauj thorg a bill in congress that would, i the u. S. Department of Homeland Security to establish a veterans visa program to bring back to the u. S. All those who served and were subsequently deported. Its a reflection of congresss inability to deal with immigration in a good way and its the extreme example that people would serve this country, be here legally, serve the country and then be punished. He tells me several members of Congress Want to change procedure so that when someone signs up to become a member of the military they also automatically become a u. S. Citizen. He calls this bill a first step in trying to correct a problem that he says needs to be fixed. Im stephen stock, nbc bay area news.

We had to get through this trip and they allowed us to do that and obviously we wanted to win, but we didnt do that but weve made it through to this point now we can go home andry charge our batteries and get rolling again. Much more athunderhead. Electiontry if i occasion project has hit another snag. Well explain why the states Congressional Republicans are asking for millions of dollars of funding to be withheld. The longawaited cala elecificationroject has t a road blo. Ngre than a dozenf e states the long awaited caltrain electrification project has hit a roadblock. More than a dozen of the states Congressional Republicans ask that the secretary of transportation to withhold millions of dollars for grants for this project and thats exactly what happened. Nbc bay area larry gers seven is here to tell us how this is going to affect cal tran riders and why do we care skbl its a big deal because more than 65,000 riders take caltrain every week between san jose and france. This form of transit is essential to keeping cars off the peninsulas crowded highways. Yet its outdated and very costly to operate. So the electrification project would replace the commuter lines, the aging diesel engines, that is, with modern electricity fueled engines. If constructed the new system would allow more trains because of more efficient engines and in return it would enable be able to carry more passengers while experiencing lower fuel costs. It sounds like a smart investment to have people leave their cars at home, take public transit. Why do you think theres this hesitation by the Trump Administration. Its californias republican delegation. The republican delegation to Congress Opposes federal funds for the states High Speed Rail Program which they see as an irresponsible use of taxpayer dollars. They believe that by denying the federal grant california will have to think twice about pursuing the high speed rail project. Now the electrification plant is connected to the high speed rail project to the extent that the new system would make it easier for the peninsula to accommodate high speed rail trains. But advocates also see it as a necessary standalone effort. Do you think caltrain might just take this project on on its own . That would be nice but it really gets down to the old fashion thing, dollars and cents. The estimated cost of the project is just under 2 billion and without the 647 million federal grant, the commuter line will be unable to operate this effort. Its no secret that californias at odds with the Trump Administration over a handful of issues. Do you think this is in some way punishment . Some people would like to think that es special fli california. Not a conspiracy. I dont think so. Theres really no evidence, no strong evidence of any kind that the Trump Administration seeks to punish california by denying the grant. Thaif got Better Things to do. In fact, if anything the election contribute if i occasion project is virtually shovel ready and that means the kind of Infrastructure Program proposed by President Trump and maybe for that reason its possible at least that federal spending may come down the road. Is there any way for the state to show Congressional Republicans that this is very important and needs to be done . Well, thats the missing piece, right. To be sure, the irony is that for years californias hightech interest in Silicon Valley have conducted fundraisers for bakersfield base kevin mccarthy. Hes the republican majority leader second only to speaker paul ryan. But those dollars that theyve spent cultivating ryan may turn out to be a bad investment unless state leaders can convince California Republican delegation to change their mind or find a new funding source, the electrification effort may never come to fruition. In a strange way, its just another unfortunate sign of the incredible polar rye zation between the states, democrats, and republicans serving in congress which really kind of mirrors the polarization we see in the country. Another issue that comes down to money. Much more ahead in the bay coming up. Its not quite st. Patricks day yet but that didnt stop people from starting the party early. We will show that you next. And i hope youre ready for another day of sun shin, look that the shot overlooking walnut creek. Beautiful sunrise, 46 degrees right now expecting to warm up yet again across the bay area.
