Reporter some customers are looking at their third power shut off of the year, there was frustration. Im tired of this crap. Reporter and surprisingly some sympathy for the utility giant. Theyre in a no win situation. rifthey do, if they dont. I feel sorry for them. I think theyre doing everything they can. I feel for the shareholders.

They know what to do and where engines need to go and firefighters need to go in case the power does in fact go off again here. Live in Contra Costa County, andria borba, kpix 5. All right, at this point its wednesday morning when the worst of the winds will come through, but first let me give you the headlines. Heres the red flag warning. Youve gotten used to looking at these, but read the fine print. Right underneath where it says red flag warning on the top, dont look in the blue box on the bottom just yet. Look here. It says 4 00 a. M. Wednesday through 7 00 a. M. On thursday. Basically right through the day on wednesday and very early on thursday morning. Thats going to be the concerning time to get through, and then i want you to read this line. Peak gusts near 60. And then look at the areas in red on the map behind me. Ill bring you now to what will probably be the peak point in the winds. This is wednesday morning. This should look familiar. Were focused on the north bay because thats where the worst of it will be, and were highlighting the mountains. All the purple lines, those are the ridges, the northeast trending mountain ridges that are going to be headed right for the winds, or at least the winds headed right for them. So while we hit 60 Miles Per Hour gusts in the mountain, it will be a 20 Miles Per Hour gust where we all live. This is familiar. Its not the worst of the wind events that came through, but its still bad enough that we have to take this one seriously. Ill be back with more on the rest of the forecast coming up. Now back to you. Thank you. Kpix 5 as your Survival Guide during the planned power shut offs. Find useful resources online at kpix. Com. So pg e may be bankrupt, but tonight its upping its offer to Northern California wildfire victims. Its proposing another 6. 6 billion to settle claims in an attempt to match the offer from a rival group trying to seize control of the troubled utility. The increase raises their total pay out cap to 25. 5 billion giving it a better chance of emerging from bankruptcy intact. Also tonight, a major break in a decades old cold case. Police in one east bay say say it was all thanks to new technology and a spoon. Kpix 5 is live at livermores Police Station to explain how it all came together. Reporter ken, it almost sounds like something out of a tv show, but this is real life. Detectives were able to find a suspect using a dna match to a distant relative. They then followed the suspect 24 hours a day until he threw away a plastic spoon used to eat ice cream. That was enough for them to get a dna sample. Every victim deserves justice and in this case its real rewarding because its so old. Reporter police spent more than 20 years trying to figure out who violently raped 2 women. One as she walked home from union city bart in may 1997, the other at Livermore High School the same year. Police identified gregory vien as the suspect using a genetic testing service. It came back with a match to a distant relative, and looking at the family tree, they immediately zeroed in on him. He was around livermore during the time and had connections to all the locations. Reporter detectives made a dna match from a plastic spoon they say the suspect threw away after eating ice cream. Officers then arrested him at his livermore home, the same one they say hes lived in since the assaults more than 20 years ago. Now weve got 2 victims who can at least have a little bit of solace that the person who did it to them is behind bars. Reporter Livermore Police believe this suspect could also be connected to 3 other unsolved rapes from between 1995 and 1997. Thats because of the similarities in the attacks. Now hes actually scheduled to enter a plea on wednesday at his next court appearance. Right now hes being held without bail in the Alameda County jail. Live at the Livermore Police department, kpix 5. California is suing juul, the ecigarette maker accusing them of targeting young people and failing to warn them about the risks of vaping. The ecigarette industry has been under fire since hospitals began taking note of vapingrelated lung injuries this summer. In california 4 patients have died from vaping related causes. The number of African American people involved in traffic stops by Oakland Police dropped nearly in half since 2016. The police chief says its Real Progress in the fight against racial profiling, but as john ramos reports, many in the Community Say its just a numbers game. Reporter for decades, many in oaklands African American community have complained about racial profiling because of a huge disparity in the number of black drivers pulled over in traffic stops compared to white drivers. Oaklands police chief acknowledged today that overenforcement used to be the mind set. That was what defined good policing. If i could just stop a lot of people out there im going to come across the bad person with the gun. Reporter but that approach has driven a sharp divide between the police and black community, so since 2017, opd says it has quietly changed its approach, lessening the number of stops for technical violations like bad taillights or traffic violations that pose no real changer. The chief says it has had a dramatic effect. In the African American community, we dropped 61 percent in our footprint in 2018 we had another 55 percent drop. Reporter but critics say the numbers do nothing to explain the disparity between races. While the number of African American traffic stops has dropped from about 20,000 to less than 11,000, the number of white stops last year was only 895. Pamela price is an attorney for a Watchdog Group called the coalition for police accountability. They need to bring down the percentage of black people being arrested. They need to change the manner in which they address black people when they approach them. Reporter the chief says she wants a new policing culture for the city and wants to new approach to be as much a change of heart as it is a change in tactics. But after decades of mistrust, Michael Anderson gives the effort only about a c plus. Now the grade can go up. Lets see if they implement that and actually stop harassing us.

A fight on the peninsula over mountain lions that share land with livestock amee ats b considered and why some people object. Reporter its a conflict thats frankly as old as the west. Cattle ranchers versus mountain lions. Cattle have been grazing on this land here for nearly 2 centuries as mountain lions have been here all along. Now ranchers are concerned that some lions are repeat offenders attacking the cattle. The district is proposing a 3 strikes plan. Considering entering permits to shoot the problem lions. The 3 strikes is being considered as part of the first draft of the policy as one of many different high schools and there will be a long public process. Reporter the Environmental Group center for the environmental diversity disagrees withth proposed lethal force. These lands were set aside for conservation purpose, so it doesnt really make sense to kill lions for the sake of livestock. Reporter there are now approximately 80 mountain lions tagged with tracking collars, and there have been 22 documented livestock killed by mountain lines since 2013 while the lions have also taken 348 deer. The Public Comment period is expected to last well into the next year before any decisions are made. Don ford, kpix 5. Expect thousands of people to flood into San Francisco this week.

Lets get you over to darren peck whos watching the weather, and we expect some wind tomorrow. Yes, but more noticeably by wednesday morning, and if you enjoyed the low 80s for inland highs today, this is probably the last time were going to do that. Take a look at that list right there. It probably seems like its nothing big, like its not out of the ordinaries , and in terms of the november youve been living through, its not. But its about 12 degrees above erand its likely that today was the last time we do this until spring of next year. Lets look at how tomorrow dayt and these are actually normal. This is where we should be. Only 68 in concord instead of 80. Only 70 in santa rosa instead of 81. 67 is the average. Bottom line, noticeable cool down tomorrow. And yes we get noticeably breezy, but not until wednesday that the wind pick up in the mountains. This is the storm, very impressive. A tightly wound area of low pressure. By wednesday that circulation is down here. In order to get there, i had had to go around the inside. Thats what we call an inside slider. The storms that come directly from the pacific give us the good rains and snow. The ones that come in north and then come east are not good because they tend to give us the winds. In fact look what we find ourselves dealing with by wednesday. The offshore winds, and as the system passes east it pulls the north winds down with it. That was the scenario i showed you at the top of the newscast when we talked about the red flag warning that goes mainly through the heart of wednesday. Wednesday morning specifically going to be the issue. And looking at the storm again, it has the rain and snow but falls apart as it passes us except in the mountains. Little snow in the sierra wednesday morning. If were lucky we could get a sprinkle tomorrow, but dont hold your breath. If anything happens it will be along the coast or north bay. So i dont have any rain in the sevenday forecast, but we certainly have another wind event coming, and thats the one that takes place from wednesday morning through very early on thursday. 60 Miles Per Hour gusts coming to the north bay hills. Much more on that at 7 00. Back over to you. Another key injury for the 49ers might slow down their pass rush, and john grugen does yet another victory lap in the black hole. And are the raiders playoff bound . Bad news first. 49ers defensive end ford is expected to miss a couple of weeks with a hamstring injury. Now the good news. San francisco dug out of a 16point whole yesterday. Theyre 9 and 1. Lets go niners come on yeah, come on jimmy g threw a of interceptions in the second half, but he redeemed himself with a gamewinning touchdown to wilson jr. In the final minute. He joined montana and young as the only quarterbacks in franchise history to throw for over 400 yards and 4 touchdowns in the same game. Any time youre in the same sentence with those 2 names its always on honor, but i have a long way to go to catch up to those 2. They did great things around here. And have to be even better sunday night because you know the opposing quarterback will be ready to face the 49ers. Reporter how disappointed are you that you wont be a 49er . Not as disappointed that the 49ers will be they didnt draft me. That wont be my last play of that sound bite this week. The 49ers ers start their toughest stretch of the season. Green bay, baltimore, and then the saints. The raiders can take over first place in the afc west if kansas city loses tonight to the charger, and oakland is in the playoff picture thanks to its impressive rookie class. I think theyre starting to see how good our head coach and gm are at finding talent. Yesterday max crosby stole the show. Mad max and the raiders defense allowed a season low 10 points. I honestly didnt think id get 4. I never did that before. It was cool. Finally someone will count the sacks and write a nice story about him. But hes been near the quarterback, hitting the quarterback, batting balls down from the quarterback, and today he got to the quarterback. And this colts fan clearly no stranger to rocking out on the air guitar. But that was nothing compared to the touchdown celebration from indys offensive line. Careful, careful. In terms of john gruden, ive been talking and complimenting max crosby forever. Mad max. All right, dennis, thanks. Well be right back. There are those who will say that youre too fat. Too skinny. Too hard. Too soft. Too old. Too much. Too unexpected. Too limited. And to them we say too bad. Because at kaiser permanente, we believe that everyone deserves the right to thrive.
