KNTV NBC Bay Area News At 6 July 12, 2024

The stanford Football Team got the blessing of the School District earlier this week. To go down the road a couple miles out of santa clara. And into the more cooperative environment to start practice. Stanford crews arrived early to convert the football field into the practice site. The pac12 ready for a seven game season that kicks off november 7. When stanford traveled to wood side to practice. Both counties are in the states red tier for covid19. It raised some eyebrows. I think there should be continuity among the counties. Know something we dont. The county manager says every county has unique circumstances. But comfortable with the precautions. Theres many things in place. You have the pac12 standards in place. The state standards that are specifically address college athletics. The county Public Health department issued a general statement. Focusing on red tier status. In its own statement stanford emphasized this is an interim plan. Reflecting optimism that on campus practice could commence soon. The pac12 issued a bottom line. That if 10 of the team tests positive within a two week span. The doors open for Public Health departments to end the season. Theres financial aspects to this. Im trying to give them benefit of the doubt. Its a health and safety perspective. The principal says theres no set schedule for how long the team will get to practice here. That will be determined later. Thank you. The next president ial debate is off. The town hall style was set for thursday in miami. Yesterday the commission on president ial debates announced it would be virtual because of the covid19 diagnosis. President trump said he wont participate in a virtual debate. So its called off. Right in and out debate slated for october 22 in mash ville is a go. That will be a traditional standard debate. You may have yours here in california. Mail in ballots went out this week. Theres already confusion. Election officials are clearing up whats behind that. Because of the pandemic Governor Newsom made the decision to mail a ballot to every registered voter in california. Thats about 21 Million People. And as the ballots arrive in the mail this week, there are hiccups that were hearing about. Jeff riff tell us he got two in the mail. Each with a different bar code and version of his name. One with his middle name, one without. Leading to concerns someone could vote twice. Another issue someone receiving a ballot belonging to someone else. Someone who moved. These issues are why he doesnt think every registered vote r should automattly get a ballot in the mail. The system we have now where you can ask nor a mail in ballot it makes sense. You ask and they send it. To just send tout ballots to everyone. Especially in the middle of the pandemic. Where people moved and lost houses. And are in different locations. And maybe changing your address isnt a priority. We made multiple attempts to contact the register of voters about the issues. Nobody got back to us. The secretary of state tells us the voter likely reregistered with a different variation of the name. And recommend anyone with the issue call your county registrar. And ask them to merge the records. If you get someone elses ballot. You should quote mark the ballot envelope as return to sender. Voter no longer lives there and put it back in the mail to the election office. This will notify the county election official to deactivate the previous registration. Multiple rej stars in other counties say there are fail saves in place to prevent debate counting. The fact check unit as well as the fbi said in reality some double votes will sneak through. It happens with in person voting. The percentage of improper votes is a tiny fraction and theres no evidence they never found any evidence of widespread voter fraud. We will keep an eye on the situation. Thank you. A dangerous situation in the east bay. A shooting ended after a car crash. Started on the shouder of 80. That black sedan got a flat tire and the driver pulled over. The driver called his brother for help. When the brother and friends showed up, another car pulled up and two people got out and started shooting. One person was shot in the leg. The victims trid to drive to the hospital but ended up crashing into another car. We dont have any information on the shooters. Its almost a month of frustration and suffering. And still no sign of this popular taco truck. The theme here in action. Stealing the truck in san jose. The only source of income for the family in this pandemic. They are making the best of a bad situation. What do you when you are knocked down . In the kas of this family, pick yourself up. They put up a temporary stand here. Vowing not to quit on their dream. Of sending their boys to college. Its not the same, this will have to do for the family. For now. They werent about to sit and cross their arpaios after what happened to them. Arms. After what happened to them. Police say video shows a white pickup truck pulled up and drove arm with their taco trailer. Their business was gone. She was angry then. Shes forgiven the thieves and hop hopes they do the right thing. Were surprised it hasnt been found. Since then dozens of well wishers have been stopping by to support the family. A donation to a go fund me have slowed. Stopping 20,000 short of the 70,000 needed for a new food truck. Theyre working so hard. Trying to make a living. And through it all the couple says theyll use it as a teachable moment. He hopes his children learn to never quit. Fight on. Even when faced with extraordinary challenges. He says they fight on for them. So his children can have what they never had. A college education. The go fund me goal there will be a big celebration. Right here. And provide all the food. As a thank you. They are getting close to the goal. Thank you. A multiagency Investigation Continues to find the cause of the accident that killed a San Francisco firefighter. He fell about 30 feet on wednesday from the top of the platform during a Training Exercise for the department. Officials say investigators are looking into multiple scenarios. Unsecured door swung open and hit him. You see it there. There are three different investigations happening right now. By San Francisco fire and cal osha. A Company Famous for now wants to tackle racism. Yelp says if you were treated badly because of your race, they have a way to let others know. The new tool and why it has some Small Businesses concerned it could be abused. Yelp long been a place when customers with praise or criticize a business. Its a place where customers with call out a business. For racism. That has some Small Businesses concerned. Because they say San Francisco based yelp can be helpful but also can be cruel. Unfair and abused. It is abused yes. But people usually go and go only if they have a bad experience. If it includes racial profiling like this incident at a philadelphia starbucks. Customers can file a racist behavior alert. That will show up in the business review. One woman who said she experienced racial profiling at a restaurant says its about time. They shoved the water at her. Took longer with our food than anybody else. My concern is that the new feature is going to be misused. Social media says yelp reviews are not always an honest or accurate peckture. Peer reviews matter. Right now as Small Businesses are struggling in the pandemic. Label that say they are racist might mean the end of the business. Yelp says to prevent false claims it will investigate before issuing an alert. Very interesting. Thank you. Up next. New rules on the jungle gym. San francisco reopening playgrounds with parents on the fence. The show must go on. How the San Francisco opera is staying busy during the pandemic. Im chief meteorologist. How much cloud cover to expect tomorrow and the Cool Temperatures on the way. Oscar the grouch here to tell you, yeah, you, to wear a mask out in public around other people. Sure itll keep you healthy. But more importantly, i wont have to see your happy smiling face. Ugh. And if you dont want to wear a mask, ive just got one thing to tell you. Scram, go away. Ugh. Caring for each other because we are all in this together. So wear a mask and have a rotten day, will ya . Ugh. Making it in the bay. The challenges of living here. The vacant oakland house that made headlines last year is in the hands of the Oakland Community land trust. This was the home that four homeless moms moved into without approval. It will serve as transitional housing for other homeless moms. The group celebrated the victory. At the house in west oakland. The land trust purchased the home in may for 600,000. You can imagine the house was in poor condition. Well be starting the rehab. And looking forward to putting it back into productive use for the moms. This is officially moms house. Plenty of cheers. The house will give homeless moms a place to stay while they get credit in order and find permanent housing. It is a dream come true for a San Francisco woman. Shes hoping it leads the way for others. She has opened the first latino owned cannabis dispensary in the city. She grew up in the projects and over come gang violence, Domestic Abuse and addiction. She wants others to know that hard work really can pay off. I will be able to fund and help the communities like the community that i grew up and i still live. And its also giving other women that look like me hope and they know that they can also do it. Check it out. Customers started lining up last night and shes grateful to everyone who helped her. Including the cannabis equity program. Its deemed an essential business during the pandemic. Playgrounds will reopen in San Francisco parks next week. There are new rules. New signage will be up before they are open wednesday. Out lining the dos and donts including mandatory social distancing. Heres the rules. If your child is ore two they need a mask. No eating or drinking. And hand washing stations will be added. Many families have been waiting months for this. I would say we are ready for that. Again, my number one rule is common sense. If we see its not and cant maintain distance. Why not. Many parents say that are worried about whether small children can follow the guidelines. Including limiting the number of kids allowed. The pandemic has hit the arts especially hard. Theaters are shut. And the opera is quiet. Behind the scenes of the opera the show must go on. In the typical opera, theres music. Choreography. A dramatic story line. Coming back was difficult. The same could be said for the San Francisco opera scene shop. Once again belting out the song of construction. Nice to have noise and grinding going on. Sglt in march the shop fell silent as the pandemic shut everything down. No concerts, no ballet. No opera. For his team to build sets for. It was boring. It was frustrating for everyone. Theres still no date for when the performances will come back. The artists are back at work building sets for another day. The crew is creating a set for the opera. We were supposed to open last week. It was a somber opening for us. No one knows when the curtain will go up again. Theres no cutting corners. We take pride in what we do. In a sense i have a little built of survivors guilt. Nobody gets to sing. But i get to make sets. Crews are installing the set on the War Memorial Building stage. Using the down time to change out the theaters 88 yearold seats. We have not had the luxury of time it required to replace the seats. Until now. Now we have nothing but time. Time will tell when the seats will be filled and the set alive with performers. Even if we cant make use of it the opera house. There might be an out door venue. The opera might be coming to them. A dramatic twists for dramatic times. The art has to keep happening. Nice story. They are busy. Lets bring in jeff. We are smiling because it is nice fall weather. And it is friday night. We made it. It feels we did. It feels so good outside. That cool breeze. That fall air in place. And the air quality that is the other excellent thing. Rite now we have good air quality. Across most of the bay area. A little bit of moderate air quality. Generally we are smoke free and isnt that great to look at after weeks on end of unhealthy air. We dont take it for granted. Its nice to go outside and breathe. We bring the sky cam. Mostly clear skies near the fire line. Thats excellent. 71 for the firefighters. So this will continue to help the Fire Fighting effort. San jose 70. And lots of blue skies across downtown and off to the higher elevation. The big change we have tomorrow will be another storm system moving close. Unfortunately not good enough to bring rainfall. How impressive it is here. The bulk of the rainfall will stay way off to the north. As this gets closer i think the big thing tomorrow is the cloud cover. All of this gray. That is widespread clouds. That will really encapsulate the bay area with the chance of spot spotty drizzle to start. Well hang onto that cloud cover. So it will again feel like fall. A nice change. 67 for santa rose. 69 san jose. Morgan hill 73. And anywhere near the coast will be in the 50s to 60s. We have warmer weather next wednesday. Thursday and friday.

And measure rr helps essential workers like me get to work and keep our communities healthy. Relieve traffic. Reduce pollution. Rescue caltrain. [all] yes on measure rr. When was the last time your property tawhat . L went down . Never. Are you kidding me . For years, the residential burden has gone up. While the corporate burden has gone down. Prop 15 reverses that. It closes corporate loopholes and invests in schools, small business, and firefighters. And when the big corporations pay more, your tax bill goes down. Thats right. A savings of a hundred twentyone dollars a year for the average home. Give homeowners a break. Vote yes on 15. When you take a it all begins to unravel. Ann ravels no reformer, shes backed by big corporations whove poured hundreds of thousands into her campaign. And she opposes ballot measures to make the economy more fair for working people. Only dave cortese is endorsed by the California Democratic party. Hes helping us battle the pandemic with a sciencebased approach. And expanding Health Services and child care to those in need.
