Plus what kind of person would fire pellets at kids sitting in a classroom . It happened. Were investigating. And then later, look at this. Im reed cowan. So call i a day for our states state of emergency for covid. Thats going to end in february. Just three years after governor gavi newsom made that declaration. S put this date on your calendar. The covid state of emergency ends february 28, 2023. Essentially it gave the governo the power to issue nearly 600 orders. However tonight, we kno some of you are asking this question that may be divided on the question. Whether those regulations ever protected you in the first place, here is pet pet. Reporter most of the nearly 600 pandemic related orders issued by governor gavin newsom will be gone once the state of emergency is lifted. Giving local officials time to prepare and respond to any winter surges. The proclamation is to serve to help advance our resources. Reporter first declared as state of emergency in the early days of the pandemic. Stating californias death rate is the lowest. The evers prevented 1. 4 million infections and saved 20,000 lives. I was a little surprised because of the timing because w were talking about these new variants that are coming on board now. I think it was a little surprising to me, dont get me wrong, but we have this hurdle to get through first. They say they dont think well see as many hospitalizations this winter as we isnt that true the last two years. And the state of emergency was necessary for the first 30 days. After 30 days, anything going on has been unnecessary and its burdensome upon californians. Reporter he works for the right leaning group, which file about two dozen lawsuits over covid19 businesses. We have businesses that have shut down permanently and will never open up again. We have lost years off of our children education. Reporter newsom said california created more jobs than any other state and had a healthier economy than states with fewer restrictions like florida. In San Francisco betty yu kpix 5. Just adding one more thing, newsom will ask state lawmakers to make tword oars permanent. One would allow them to let lab workers solely process covid tests. Now to the arrest of the suspected serial killer. Police say they caught Wesley Brownlee as he was on the hunt for the next victim. Now with one dead in oakland and five dead in stockton, reporter julie watts looks into his past and why he wasnt caught sooner. Reporter well he does have criminal history, but appears t be nonviolent. Records indicat he a misdemeanor dui in 2009 an a felony possession of cocaine in 2019. In 2017 he was cited for failing to obey a traffic stop. There were two traffic citations in 202 it 1 and 2022. Brownlee recently formed a Single Member llc called solid blue transport. Its incorporated with the Office Address listed at his home in stockton. Several possible relatives in chicago. Were in the process of confirming that now, but of course that would b significant because the suspected stockton serial kille seen here in video in the left is the same man suspected of similar shootings in chicago back in 2018. That suspect seen here in the right. Police are looking at other possible crime connections. Police are working closely on that. Well keep you updated. In a place we all call home in fact look at this and consider all of this in september, just in september, 5 people died from overdoses. And their deaths added to more than 1,800 people who have died, again overdoses since january o 2020. Lets put that into perspective. Thats close to twice the city wide total for covid deaths. Releasing those numbers to us today. You know, when we would look at this problem, we hear it all the time, city leaders taking a tough stance as we hear from yo all the time. We know you have the same questions that we do. What will work . When will it work . Supervisor matt dorsey is asking city departments and planning commissions to drill down and look at plans that wor well in cities like amsterdam i and lisbon, which by the way have no tolerance for open air drug markets on the streets. They actually have things like supervised consumption facilities and they exist precisely so it is not taking place on the street. Blocks are being taken over by drug scenes and drug dealers. In fact her career is banking on wins thatll save lives. Shes running in that closely d. A. s race for the progressive defens attorney who has a very different approach. What we need is a Public Health approach, the professionals that are impacted trying to get people the treatment. Once again a reminder 55 die in september alone. So while people die, leaders will watch city data, numbers that will show drug dealing often happens near campuses during school hours close to our kids. And so jenkins says she is pushing for tougher punishments when the drug crimes happen when minors are on campus. We want to hear from you in our community. Twee us and let us know what you think. So lets turn to this investigation at willow glen middle school. Today somebody i a car fired soft pellets into a classroom and multiple students and a faculty member were hit. But the School District says th person was driving a Gray Mercedes suv and they want to know who they were. That suspec used a paintballstyle gun. Willow glen has seen similar incidents. Tonight more than 50 street lights and Traffic Signals that you paid for with your tax dollars are broken. In fact you will find 50 street lights are not working. And tonight theyr looking at using wiring with less valuable medals to discourage vandalism and theft. Still ahead tonight, did 18 years of progress. Its been 33 years since loma prieta. Why on scientist says despite the destruction, it could have been more does your vitamin c last 24 hours . Only natures bounty does. With immune 24 hour plus. You get longerlasting vitamin c. Plus herbal and other immune superstars. Get more with natures bounty. All right, fire crews tryin to save statues from a spiritua store that went up in flames. Those flames climbed up into th attic. Thats why they needed t use the ladder there. That was next door. The fire happened at an especially bad time for the spiritual store because they sell items meant for the day of the dead holiday, which happens november 1. All right, lets go to crockett now. Word of a Health Advisory after detecting hydrogen sulphide. New tonight the Health Advisory has been lifted, so thats good news. If you were up there, you probably smelled something foul. The chemical came from the nearby Wastewater Treatment plant. Workers have cleaned out more than a thousand air diffusers a the plant to make that smell go away. Well it lasted a matter of seconds, but we know many of yo remember exactly where you were 33 years ago when that 1989 lom prieta earthquake jolted the ba area. 6. 9 magnitude shaker was the most devastating local disaster in recent memories. Stepped forward. And they were lost in that quake. We know there are a number of earthquake faults. But at least one expert believes more lives could have been lost if i triggered a different fault line. The oakland as tame it. And they explode. Were having an earthquake. With the force of one, two u 75 adam bombs. The initial boom. It just kept coming and coming and kept coming again. The freeway was rolling, humping, jumping. It was terrible with a lot of people under. Reporter 2,200 yards pancaked. It is just not helping. One deck of the bay bridge collapses. A part of the marina goes up in flames. 6 billion i damage. And we were lucky thats great. Thats good to see you. Reporter meet ross stein. Hello. And so why were we lucky . If you put a gun to my head and said your job is to take th earthquake and put it in a plac where it will be as safe as possible, i would have put it where the loma prieta earthquak occurred. In the middle of the Santa Cruz Mountains where nothing was happening except growing pot. We just want one picture. Reporter when you see how i looks today, you couldnt imagine how much damage was don in the mountains of monterey bay. And all this chaos, 40 miles from the epic center. So here is the point. The magnitud 7 on the hayward fault would be so much worse. First its close to San Francisco. Its closer t population centers. Its closer to Tall Buildings and key infrastructure like bridges, bart, everything we care about. Reporter the last time the hayward fault snapped was in 1868 and it did a lot of damage and so is the hayward fault overdue . It is really hard to talk about any fault being overdue. But what we can say is based on the past ten or so ruptures, its about due. I hope not. You hear the words its about due. But were measuring those things, and so it might not be within our lifetime. We will bank on that and jus maybe little earthquakes instea of one big one. Thats right. The skies to the ground . You can actually see stuff today because the fog has thickened up. Basically partly cloudy skies. That fog is not going to be as widespread or persistent as it has been the past couple of weeks. The warming trend will continue on wednesday with passing high cloud cover overhead just filtering the sunshine. Not blocking it entirely. But then we go down the other side of th temperature roller coaster back down to below average temperatures. Looking outside a oakland, beautiful weather out there this evening. The temperature is 58 degrees. A couple of degrees warmer on the San Francisco side of the bay. The cool spot, its 55 degrees right now in santa rosa. Youre more likely to drop down to 50 degrees. Not a whole lot of vacation or the temperatures at the moment. And that fog is going to be present, but its not going to be again nearly th factor. What fog there is to begin the day on tuesday should dissipate quickly. And again, plenty of that filtered sunshine. The temperatures tonight dropping down to the lo to mid50s. Not a lot to begin the day tomorrow. High temperatures will be about thre to six degrees above average. And those high temperatures wil reach the low to mid70s for sa francisco and oakland. Thats not bad for midoctober and mostly 80s inland. You can add few more degrees for these high temperatures on wednesday. But that will leave us short. Thing will shift and we will start cooling down. It looks like it will settle in over the weekend well yeah, theres a chance in the six to tenday outlook. But theyre staying to the north, more likely that as we head through the last week of octobe is when we might see shower chances paying attention to the bay area. Friday night into saturday, its lower than 20 . Well keep you updated in case things change, but i dont thin youll need to adjust any outdoor plans at this point. Yo can see the pattern throughout the week. Temperatures go up tomorrow, they peak on wednesday. Then we start headin back down from near 90 degrees in san jose and wednesday and all the way down to 70 on saturday and sunday. A similar drop for other inland parts of the bay area. North of the golden gate and temperatures will be slightly below normal o saturday and sunday and before we start coasting back up by monday. Get out and meet your neighbor weather. Well wildfires sparked by lightning in 2020 turned those skies orange. Youll see it right there. Now researchers sa the fires put enough Greenhouse Gases into the air to essentially just negate the previous 18 years of Greenhouse Gas cuts. Thats according to the new study out of ucla. They found the 2020 fires actually put out double the amount of Greenhouse Gases. In fact doubl than the state managed to save between 2023 from 2019.
