Kpix 5s maria medina is live at San Jose Police headquarters with details. Reporter good morning. Yeah. Later today City Council Members will talk about how to deal with a staffing crisis here at sjpd. If you remember, kpix 5 uncovered last month that officers are sleeping in rvs in a parking lot near sjpd just to get some rest between overtime and regular shifts. City leaders declared a state of emergency making overtime mandatory and pulling officers who dont usually work the street back onto the streets just to cover the streets, um, here. And so now we are finding out exactly how much overtime they are working. According to a new audit, it says that officers here are working 8 extra hours a week every, single week all year long. The normal days where would you have a couple of days off youre not having them off. Its not happening. Youre having maybe a day off in between. Reporter all right. So just for some perspective, according to that audit, sjpd officers are working 450 hours overtime every year. Compared to los angeles and San Francisco, much bigger departments and they are working 100 overtime hours. The mayor says the solution is to pass measure f which is on the november ballot. That would restore benefits for the officers and attract more officers and keep the ones we have. Maria medina, kpix 5. Two former Police Officers are due in Alameda County courtrooms today in connection with a sex scandal involving several Law Enforcement officers. Former Livermore Police officer daniel black is set to face a judge in oakland. He faces five misdemeanor charges.

Both cases involve a teen who went by the name of celeste guap. Police at stanford are investigating a possible rape in a campus dorm. They say the student reported it on friday but havent been able to talk to the victim yet. New numbers show 39 sex assaults were reported at the University Last year which is higher than 2014.

He was released after serving three months in jail. Today in San Francisco, google unveils a variety of gadgets. Kpix 5s jackie ward is live in San Francisco with more.

Googles home wifi router will be announced at the event and cost 130 launching alongside the google home Smart Speaker and a new chromecast possibly called the 4k chromecast ultra. Reporter we may also be learning more about what google has been doing in the world of vr.

And today the u. S. S. San diego will be opened for tours from 10 to 2 as part of fleet week. More than 2,000 sailors and marines will arrive onshore to take part in the week of events. The blue angels will make an appearance on thursday. With the name Hillary Clinton and donald trump so often making headlines these days, people lose sight of the running mates but tonight in farmville, virginia, those vicepresident ial hopefuls take the podium. And for more insights on their only debate of the election, we turn to our washington insider marc sandalow. Do they matter . Reporter theres not even evidence that Vice President s matter. 4 out of 10 americans dont know the names of the running mates. Its not so much whether or not pence can out do kaine but we have both parties number one surrogates for the top of the tickets trying defend them. Mike pence will surely be asked about Donald Trumps taxes and the stories that the New York Times had that said he made not paid taxes for decades. Tim kaine will have to make the case that a status quo politician like Hillary Clinton is a safer wiser choice than donald trump. This may be more substantive than the president ial debate but that doesnt mean more interesting. [chuckling] it just means more talk about policy. Can you tell us about pence or kaine that might provide insight on what to watch for tonight . Reporter pence is a governor who used to be a senator. Kaine is a senator, who used to be governor. So fire at of them are really regarded as so neither of them are really regarded as unfit. Pence is a very, very conservative republican. In the house of representatives, when he was in the senate, he was a strong opponent of, um, abortion, against funding to planned parenthood, he used to have a talk radio show in fact he describes himself as Rush Limbaugh an decaf. Tim kaine is a liberal democrat. He speaks fluent spanish. We may hear that tonight in an effort to get latino votes. Tim kaine describes himself as boring. Okay. Hopefully the debate isnt boring. But vicepresident ial debates, they have produced a memorable moment, right . Reporter they have. I mean, bob dole talked about democrat wars back in 1980. Walter mondale called him a hatchet man. Maybe the best putdown in all of debates was 88 when the democrat said to dan quayle. I was a friend of john kennedy. I served with john kennedy, and you, senator, are no jack kennedy. It was an incredible moment in that debate. But it bears remembering that despite that putdown, Lloyd Bentsen went back to the u. S. Senate and dan quayle became Vice President. Hard to believe that was almost 30 years ago [chuckling] 1988. Thank you, marc sandalow. That vicepresident ial debate is at 6 p. M. Tonight on kpix 5. Thank you, marc. Time now 5 10. Distracted driving is a bigger issue recently than ever before. How semi trucks are now being used in the fight against texting and driving. Plus some local College Students trying to get an uber when they were picked up by a strange man. Who police are now looking for. From the kpix weather center, good morning, everybody.

We do have some ace train delays. Well tell you about those coming up next. Dont go anywhere. Well be right back. ,,,,,,,,,, girls over the weekend. Ucdavis police are looking for the man who pretended to be an uber driver and picked up three girls sunday morning. He dropped off the first two on campus. But then demanded a kiss from the third as payment. He unlocked the car doors when an officer drove past them. She was able to get out. But some students say this is a wakeup call. After reading that i was like ill definitely be more, like, conscious now. I trying to stick with a friend at least, like, one other person that you trust. You should always look for the uber or lyft stickers before you get in a car. The National Safety council says cell phones were factors in 1. 6 million Car Accidents in the u. S. Last year roughly a quarter of all crashes. The number of fatal distracted driving crashes jumped nearly 9 as well in 2015 compared with the previous year. Its difficult for police to enforce laws that ban people from talking on phones or sending Text Messages while driving. You always think youre above it. You know, that youre not going to be the one to have an accident. Some Law Enforcement agencies are getting clever in an effort to catch those who those scofflaws. In San Bernardino have posed as panhandlers, and in idaho officers have used a Yellow School bus. The Police Department in west bridgewater, massachusetts, is using bicycle officers. Okay. Interesting. Hopefully there are no distracted drivers on the roads this morning. Right, roqui . That is right, michelle. We have no crashes to report.
