Live for us at city college. Reporter good morning, reggie and natasha. City college of San Francisco is the only Community College here in the bay area with Sworn Police Officers who do not carry guns. But that could change. So what exactly is on the table here at city college of San Francisco . Well, according to the San Francisco examiner, chief andre barnes wants to purchase for his officers, two dozen guns, 40 tasers and 40 body cameras. This issue popped up after an incident in 2015. At that time, Police Received a call regarding a man with a gun at the library. No shots were fired and the gunman got away but Campus Police had to wait another three to five minutes for San Francisco police to arrive with their guns. Heres what one campus officer told abc7 news about a month after that incident. Were supposed to contact sfpd and basically wait for them to arrive and take care of the situation. Reporter so an independent consultant was hired after that incident and the examiner reports it recommended arming the officers. An Advisory Council to the chancellor voted in favor of that proposal. A spokesperson for the interim chancellor told the examiner she hasnt taken a stance on the issue just yet. The Advisory Council is kmmted to hold another hearing on this issue in may. Reporting live in San Francisco, matt keller, abc7 news. Here is a live look at Central London right now where extra Police Officers both armed and unarmed are out in force following yesterdays deadly terror attack. Metro police say at least eight people have been arrested and at least six overnight raids around the uk. Scotland yard says three people were killed, including a Police Officer during the attack. The suspect was also shot and killed by officers. 29 others were hospitalized when the attacker plowed a car through the crowds before attempting to storm the house of parliament. Prime minister teresa may has Just Announced that the suspect was british born and is known to Intel Services in the uk. They believe he acted alone but was inspired by international terrorism. Today, parliament is back in session as life in the city starts to return to normal. Business as normal the london. A bit of disruption around westminster as people will understand and more Police Officers on the streets, reassuring the public so people will get back to work in a normal way. A moment of silence was held this morning in the house of commons and flags are flying at half staff at the palace of westminster. Also all around the city. As a sign of solidarity, look at this. The eiffel tower going dark at midnight here in order to honor the victims of the attack. U. S. Homeland Security Officials are in close contact with their counterparts in the uk.

Authorities patrolling highprofile bay area landmarks say they will be more vigilant in response. Last night, the Belmont Police department sent support to Londons Metropolitan Police service, tweeting, our thoughts and prayers go out to metro police uk and to the victims of todays london terror attack. A vote is expected house. Party leaders are trying to gather enough support for a bill that is facing severe opposition right now. The last count by abc7 news shows 28 republicans saying they will oppose the bill as it stands. If all democrats vote no, just 22 gop naysayers will kill that legislation. Some republicans are concerned about the bills cuts in medicaid and a provision that would defund planned parenthood. Seven years ago today, president obama signed the Affordable Care act into law. Californias alienability t for health care for our poorest residents would be cripple by the Republican Health plan. Thats according to a Study Released by the department of Health Care Services and the department of finance. It shows how much money our state will lose. Currently, there are 14 million californians on medical, which is what medicaid is called here. Our state would lose almost 6 billion in 2020. Also beginning in 2020, our state would lose 400 million annually for its support of services program. That keeps the disabled and seniors in their homes rather than in institutions. California senator Kamala Harris is going to speak this morning in opposition to the American Health care act. Harris will deliver her speech on the floor of the senate. Shes going to talk about californians who have benefitted from the Affordable Care act and the devastating impact she says the republican plan wauf ould h on our state. That breaking news coming into our live desk, Israeli Police have just arrested a 19yearold jewish israeli citizen suspected of making bomb threats against Jewish Community centers right here in the united states.

This video here that i have for you is the threat that was made in los gatos earlier this month. It forced people to evacuate the area. Three other threats happened on the same day here in the bay area last month. Those were in San Francisco, palo alto, and san rafael. The fbi is investigating every single case. Again, unclear if this mornings arrest is related to these local threats at all. As soon as we get any more information, ill pass it along.

The royal family tweeting on her behalf, saying, my thauoughts, prayers and deepest sefrp are with all those who have been affected by yesterdays awful violence.

Bay area passengers returning from london were relieved to get back home while others headed to the uk were a bit concerned. Abc7 news was at sfo last night. Passengers we spoke with were already on their way to heathrow when the attack happened. It could happen to anybody. If it had happened two days earlier, i was at Westminster Abbey two days before that. So it obviously could have happened to anybody at that point. It worries me, its always in the back of my mind because nowadays people are just outs there like that, but i mean, you just have to have trust and rely on having a good time.

Only this time, the police chief is adding a lot more than guns to his wish list. Lets go live now to abc7 News Reporter matt keller at city college. Reporter good morning, reggie. No decision has been made yet but officers are making it known that they would like to be armed just in case they need it. So, what exactly is on the table here at city college of San Francisco . Well, let me go through the list here. From the police chief. Andre barnes wants to purchase for his officers two dozen guns, 40 tasers and 40 body cameras according to the San Francisco examiner. Almost all of californias Community Colleges arm their police but city college of San Francisco is gunfree, a policy which officers say makes it difficult for them to do their job. An independent consultant was hired after a gunman was seen in the Campus Library in 2015. Now the examiner reports that consultant recommended arming the officers. An Advisory Council to the chancellor voted last week in favor of that proposal. A spokesperson for the interim chancellor, susan lamb, told the examiner she hasnt taken a stance on the issue just yet. The Advisory Council is expected to hold another hearing on this issue in may. Reporting live in San Francisco, matt keller, abc7 news. Thank you, matt. Happening today, a state Senate Committee is going to discuss a bill that would make us pay more for a manicure, a haircut, dry cleaning. The committee will be talking about whats called a service tax. Barbershops, nail salons, even some gardeners would be hit with a tax as high as 8 cl. 5 on tha service. That would mean lets say a 79 haircut would become an 86 haircut. The legislation could end up collecting more than 2 billion which would be used for infrastructure and health care. A lot of us kind of assume this might happen. Now its official. The Virgin America airlines brand, byebye. Alaska Airlines Says its going to stop using the Virgin America name likely sometime in 2019. Alaska bought Virgin America last year in an effort to really boost their west coast operations. Alaska promises it will keep much of the flare that virgin flights are known for, including that free Inflight Entertainment and their mood lighting. Google is announcing a new unique partnership with historically black howard university. Students will get the chance to take classes at the googleplex in Silicon Valley.

Juniors and seniors studying Computer Science at the washington, d. C. , university will get a chance to come here to the west coast for a 12week Summer Program starting this year. They will earn College Credit and take classes from howard faculty and google engineers. Its an opportunity for us to work upstream and by bringing them to campus, they have the opportunity to not only work on their academic rigor in terms of the preparedness for the broader tech ecosystem, but they also have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the Silicon Valley culture.
