That is after they found a pickup truck outside that matched pictures from damage at the crash site. This collision happened shortly before noon yesterday during a Charity Bike Race on petaluma road. A dark blue dodge ram swerved to the right and hit the cyclists and they said it looked like it might have been intentional. It was at least grossly irresponsible and maybe worse. And then leaving the scene of the crime theres no excuse for it.

And high above the surf the blue angels were performing again in San Francisco today. You probably caught the show. They roared over San Francisco. Its the last day of the air show. And lets listen in. High above the surf the blue angels were there putting on a performance. Theyve been performing since 1989 when they all got together and said this wouldnt be a bad idea. Theyve been doing the show annually around the country since 1946. That wasnt the only spectacle in the skies. The navy performed a parachute show. The leapfrogs made their own jump. It t its amazing. Its amazing. Reporter theyre called the leapfrogs and today they leapt off a plane 5,000 feet in the air. But these are Real Navy Seals and theyve all served tours over seas. Ive done five. A couple in iraq, a couple in afghanistan, and one in the south pacific. They spend 2 to 3 years jumping then go back to military service as experts in parachuting. For now theyre having fun. I really enjoy doing something called the down play. Its team work so it takes two people to do it. We get under a canopy, we link together and we lift our canopy and go straight into the ground at 50 to 60 Miles Per Hour and right around 400 feet we separate and come together. They perform all around the nation. A few days ago they dropped into a football stadium before an nfl game. But they say jumping in San Francisco is especially enough. The winds for some reason youll just get a good gust of a 10 to 15 Miles Per Hour wind. On a canopy theres no engine so were 100 relying on the winds to get us where we need to be and theyre tricky.

Now kpix fives kiet do asks was that walkout the Vice President abruptly left an nfl game before it even started. He walked out when several 49ers players kneeled during the National Anthem. We asked was that walk out preplanned by the president . Reporter as many as 2dozen 49ers knelt during the National Anthem in the game with the colts. The colts linked arms but did not kneel. Vice president mike pence left abruptly tweeting i left todays colts game because potus and i will not dignify any event that disrespects our soldiers, our flag, or our National Anthem. The press pool typically follows the vp everywhere. But they said the media pool was kept in vans ahead of the game instead of being led in with the Vice President. A few minutes later President Trump tweeted i asked vp to leave stadium if any players kneeled disrespecting our country. I am proud of it. The 49ers safety has been the teams most vocal supporter of kneeling during the anthem. Theyve been doing it the longest and typically have more players kneeling than any team in the lead. So reid says the Vice President s appearance was political theater. A man with power comes to the game, tweets a couple of things out and leaves the game with an attempt to thwart our efforts. What do you think he should have done, watch the game . Fans we talk today were disappointed with the Vice President. Please support all americans and all of our rights.
