Hughes, who grew up on the streets of bay view, has found shes no longer welcome as she lives in her van. And the Community Members yell at me not to park there, to move away. They treat me as if im less than human. I wish they could understand that i dont want to live in my rv or have to park there either. Reporter city supervisor brown talked about how she grew up in a van on the streets. As a child of 13, living in a van, theres a lot of struggles. Reporter San Francisco officials visited this safe parking lot in oakland near the coliseum after it opened in june, according to the Oakland Community houses services manager. She says they shared their Program Model and rules. The lot expanded from 28 to 46 spots, so theyre putting names on a waiting list. The San Francisco lot is calling itself a victory yaunlg center. The goal of getting folks into permanent housing. The search is on to create more safe parking sites in San Francisco because 70 of the increase in homelessness is due to people sleeping in their vehicles. The idea of safe parking sites is one weve covered before around the bay area. In addition to San Francisco and oakland, san jose, berkeley, palo alto, mountain view, you can see they have all considered the idea. So today we checked in with each city for an update. A couple got back to us. Palo alto was the first. They say a committee has been working for months on a draft Pilot Program to allow overnight parking at churches and other religious institutions. Parking would be limited to four vehicles per site. The city council will hear the proposal early next year. East palo alto was the first Bay Area Community to set up a safe parking zone, and they told us all is going well with the program. In may abc 7 news was there as the site opened on bay road. The law provides a secure place for people to park rvs, as well as bathroom services. An idea being floated in oakland to help build a better bay area by housing Homeless People on a cruise ship in the bay. Oakland City Council PresidentRebecca Kaplan brought up the idea almost as an offhanded remark during a Council Meeting saying cruise ships have been used as shelter for people in coastal areas left homeless by natural disasters. If it can be used both by tourists cruising and by other cities as emergency housing, surely our housing emergency is no less. Homeless advocates say they prefer a plan that offers permanent housing. Port of oakland released a statement again the proposal saying there isnt infrastructure to berth a cruise ship, and there would be safety and security issues.

Antioch Police Arrested a driver suspected of deliberately ramming her car into a barbershop during a dispute over her sons haircut. The victim, 63yearold brian martin, is recovering from surgery after being hurt last wednesday. 28yearold ruby del gadillo is in jail after turning herself in. A man taken to the hospital after falling from a building in San Francisco. He had been climbing on the outside of buildings for hours. It happened near the intersection of market and goff streets this afternoon. At times the man was on the roofs of some of the buildings. When he fell it was from the awning of a groundfloor building. The extent of injuries is unclear. Officers had blocked traffic but the area is now moving freely and all clear. Three alleged drug dealers in the tenderloin have been arrested and charged by federal authorities in the deaths of a santa rosa man and his toddler. This announcement came during a News Conference by the u. S. Attorney in San Francisco. Abc 7 News Reporter vic lee is following the story in the newsroom tonight. Reporter the u. S. Attorney filed this criminal complaint charging an alleged drug dealer, saying his drugs caused someones death. Thats a strong charge and relatively rare. It sends a message. If convicted the three defendants could get a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. September 14th. A horrific discovery in this house in santa rosa. Police found Patrick Oneal unresponsive. His 13monthold son dead. The toddler died after accidentally ingesting fentanyl which oneal had consumed. He died later at the hospital. U. S. Attorney David Anderson announced that three alleged drug dealers have been arrested. The defendants are charged with the distribution of fentanyl results in death. Where these drugs were distributed in the openair drug market that exists in the tenderloin neighborhood of San Francisco. The tenderloin has tan tackles that extend into San Francisco. Reporter the tenderloin. In august the u. S. Attorney announced a federal initiative cracking down on its drug trade. 15 federal Law Enforcement agencies partnered with an equal number of federal prosecutors executing arrests in the neighborhood. In a letter to supervisor matt haynie, who represents the district, anderson said since august they made more than 100 arrests. 46 have already pled guilty. But anderson also pointed out the lack of collaboration with local authorities. Partly to blame, he said, the citys broad interpretation of its sanctuary policy. The way those policies are being applied in San Francisco is also resulting in sanctuary in some instances, perhaps immunity, for those engaged in criminalist conduct. Reporter mayor lunde breed says shes open to working with anders anderson, however crime happens no matter what, so to attribute to it a policy is i think unfair. Mayor breed says the city has to be careful when it works with federal agencies not to violate peoples civil liberties. Racial profiling she says being a big concern, among others. As i recall, the San FranciscoPolice Department is not a member of the federal joint Terrorism Task force either, i think thats right, and there was big controversy when they left that group . There was, youre right. The sfpd is not a signatory to the joint terrorism tachction force. The city withdrew from the Task Force Two years ago. By the way, we checked with the Police Commission today which decides whether the police will rejoin, thats the agency. It seems like this is a dead issue. There is nothing on the agenda even though the grand jury has recommended rejoining. Thats interesting, okay, vick, thanks very much. Another big story today. Were on storm watch.

Former new york city mayor and president ial hopeful Michael Bloomberg kicked off or picked up stockton today, actually, he went there to kick off his Campaign Events in california. Why stockton . It has a high poverty rate and is need of affordable housing, two issues very important to bloomberg. Following that he was in San Francisco to talk about Climate Change with former governor jerry brown, who has not yet endorsed him. Lyanne melendez is live with details on his visit today. Reporter Michael Bloomberg came to San Francisco to sort of introduce himself as the environmental candidate. In Stockton Bloomberg was looking for acceptance. This morning bloomberg picked an unlikely city to launch his campaign, stockton, in the central valley. But seeking the endorsement of mayor Michael Tubbs may end up working in his favor, as reporters quickly homed in on the issue of bloombergs controversial stop and frisk policy while mayor of new york. His critics insist it unfairly targeted blacks and latinos. Look, we tried a lot of things. My whole focus was on reducing the murder rate. In looking back, certainly in the third term, it got out of hand and maybe i should have paid more attention. This man went to a black church with many parishioners who probably encountered stop and frisk and said, im sorry. Why do i think california would vote for somebody like me . Because californians understand, nothings simple, you have to have real solutions, and you have to have evolutionary and revolutionary change. Reporter bloomberg has been a staunch supporter of the environment. This afternoon he attended the American Geophysical unions conference in San Francisco, joining former governor jerry brown, who did not officially endorse him. Who is going to lead us for the next four years . Hopefully somebody who appreciates the importance of Climate Change. Mike bloomberg. Reporter as you saw there, clearly it was important for bloomberg to be seen with former governor jerry brown, who remains very popular in the state. Im live in San Francisco, lyanne melendez, abc 7 news. Bloomberg entered the president ial race very late in the season. Will it hurt him that he is skipping iowa and New Hampshire . Thats a question a lot of people wonder. Reporter thats right, and we did ask him about that. And he said hes not concerned. Listen, he did speak to president obama before and president obama told him that he visited iowa more than 90 times before the iowa caucus. So clearly bloomberg doesnt have the time, doesnt have the energy, to do that in such a short time. He will, though, focus, he says, on super tuesday, which comes after that. But i do have to say something, dan. And this is where hes coming from, and i want to quote him on this to get it right. He says, if i didnt run, i would never forgive myself if i didnt do something about it. Meaning, beating president trump. All right, thanks very much. Hes also doing a lot of ad buys. Sure, got a lot of money to do it. During bloombergs visit the Trump Campaign put out a statement which read in part, its only appropriate Michael Bloomberg is joining forces today with Governor Brown in San Francisco, a city thats seen the disastrous effects of the radical policies implemented by both former elected officials. We asked bloomberg for his response to that. You can say a lot of things about jerry brown, but not being a great elected official in california aint one of them. He was one of the best governors they ever had, and he was a good mayor too before that. Bloomberg is one of 15 Democratic Candidates hoping to win the president ial nomination. You can see their faces here. Fewer than half have qualified for the next debate. So far seven have made the cut for the next for next thursdays debate in los angeles. They are Vice President joe biden, mayor pete buttigieg, minnesota senator klobuchar, bernie sanders, tom steyer, elizabeth warren, and andrew yang. Tom steyer was here in the bay area today holding a town hall in walnut creek. He spoke and answered questions at the event hosted by the ross more democrats group. Steyer is a San Francisco resident did and a billionaire after years of running a hedge fund. He says his focus is on regular people. I really think thats the question in america today, how do we take back a government thats actually of, by, and for the people . Thats why im running for president. Tomorrow steyer will take part in a town hall in napa. Today joe biden was in las vegas where he held a town hall with casino and culinary workers, many of them immigrants. Biden vows to end forprofit Migrant Detention Centers that existed while he was Vice President. Other candidates have also made this pledge. The announcement is part of an immigration policy release today. Other priorities include ending family separations at the border and rolling back Trump Administration travel limits on citizens from certain muslimmajority countries. Andrew yang went doling in davenport, iowa. He did answer questions from voters and reporters including one about Campaign Finance transparency. You look at our list of corporate funders, its a blank spread sheet. Zero corporate pac money, zero agenda. To me that should be the standard of the democratic party. Yang took a shot at bowling, and he bowled a strike. [ cheers and applause ] in addition to those math pins and math hats, maybe he ought to do one for bowling. Thats a highrisk photo op, you could hit a gutter ball and look terrible, very nice. I guess bowlings down his alley. Oh man. Weather, which is down my alley, weve got light rain pushing into the north bay right now. Heavier, steadier rain developing offshore. So all parts of the bay area will likely get some wet weather out of this system. But at the moment its mainly a north bay event. Heres the view from our rooftop camera looking across the embarcadero which is congested. Currently 57 in San Francisco. 60 at oakland, redwood city. 55 gill row. 57 half moon bay. The view in san jose where the rain has not yet reached but you can see some clouds thickening. Traffic is congested already, some directions. Temperatures right now 53 or 54 all these locations. Santa rosa, petaluma, napa, fairfield, concord, livermore. Golden gate bridge, wet pavement. These are forecast features, showers overnight. That means a wet morning commute. Unsettled pattern will be with us into saturday. A drier, cooler pattern sunday and monday. The high surf advisory, or well have one in effect from 3 00 p. M. Tomorrow to 3 00 a. M. Saturday. We see wave heights growing already. We expect breakers possibly reaching heights of 16 to 22 feet. Theres a danger of rip currents and beach erosion. Our storm ranks 1 on the storm impact scale, light intensity tonight and tomorrow. Well expect periods of showers, widely scattered at times, light intensity, highest totals in the north bay. The forecast information looks like this. Late night, well see rain becoming more widespread, hitting other parts of the bay area. That includes the overnight hours. That pattern will continue. It will start to weaken as the morning commutes gets under way. There will
