Tom vacar, ktvu fox 2 news. It has been a long and winding road, they are saying they are looking at several different sites. Do we know where any of those other sites are . Reporter i think some of the sites are kind of obvious of one would be down where they currently are building it in another space. Theres been talk of doing it south of jack london square. Theres been some talk about perhaps maybe on the other side of the port much nearer to the freeways. There are a number of places that you can do this, but the question is what are all of the other infrastructures that will have to be built in order to service that and by far the Current Location is the best. This one has all kinds of possibilities, but its going to be very expensive to set it up for bringing thousands of people where many thousands of people already live and hundreds, if not thousands, of trucks are moving through every day.

So far there are no reported deaths other than livestock and other animals. The governor and Vice President ial nominee mike pence left the campaign trail to return to indiana to get a firsthand look at what happened there. Lets get a check of our weather now, a much different scene here compared to how its been in other parts of the country. Yeah. We just have really beautiful weather. It is always so odd to go from Something Like that. This is the time of year their weather, sometimes its spring and early summer, thats their worst weather sometimes and now theyre getting into Hurricane Season which is juxtaposed to some of our finest weather of the year. Thats why we all live out here. Were checking some more showers down around louisiana. Look at the national map. I want to show you, of course, you know theyve got a lot of standing water down there because of the rain they received last week and they are continuing to get rain. On top of this this there is a tropical this there is a tropical disturbance near puerto rico and if that rolls into the gulf, it could be some more rain for louisiana. The gulf waters are running about 90 degrees. So anything that gets in that gulf will have the opportunity to explode, 90 degrees in the gulf of mexico right now. So theres the rain thats showing up out there. Now were going to the albuquerque, amarillo area and lubbock, thats where the rain is heaviest. For us its the fog from Point Conception all the way up deep, there, pushing inland. It will do what its done the last three nights. Its already across the bay, across Treasure Island and will impact temperatures around the bay and San Francisco where its just 60 degrees, 84 in fairfield, 80 in livermore. 3 degrees cooler in concord and livermore than it was yesterday at this time. Get used to it. Heres how it goes the next few days. Fog rolls back in tonight, everybody gets it, morning clouds and drizzle possible and warmer for your bay area sunday. Sunday should be the warmest day on the weekend. Heres all the fog. Heres what were tracking. Lower clouds tomorrow move in and the smoke starts to move up from the soberanes fire. The south winds kind of kick in with this low. We are looking for the opportunity for some unhealthier, less than healthy air quality. Slightly warmer for your bay area sunday, the warmest day on the bay area weekend. Friday, tomorrow a lot like today. Theres your forecast. We are looking for a nice looking period coming up next week with more cool to mild temperatures. The only caveat in the forecast is that smoke which starts showing up tomorrow and probably hangs on till saturday especially inland. How badly do you think the smoke will impact us . I think it will be noticeable everywhere except the livermore and the valley area. I think it will be hints of it but not that bad. It happened more than a year ago, a Hayward Police sergeant shot and killed during a traffic stop. It wasnt until today that the suspect entered a plea. Coming up next our Crime Reporter henry lee was in court today. Hear what happened and what the suspects mother had to say. Look at the problems caused by the states new vaccination law, thousand bay area schools are working with parents to comply. They would not allow him in school until he had a shot. Its been more than a year since Hayward Police Sergeant Scott lunger was shot and killed during a traffic stop. Ktvu reporter henry lee was in court. What happens next . The case finally now moves forward and assuming the charges stick, realistically it might be a year or two years before this case goes to trial. Hayward Police Sergeant scott lunger was shot and killed in july, 2013, but it wasnt until thursday his accused killer entered a not guilty plea to murder with special circumstances. This is the defendant mark estrada. If convicted, estrada could face life in prison without parole or the death penalty. Lunger was 48 years old and a father of two. As they have at each hearing, lungers family and fellow officers packed the courtroom. Logistically its not possible for everyone to be here, but we will try to show force for the family and the community. Reporter the case has been delayed from the start. The defense wanted more evidence before entering a plea. Hes changed attorneys several times. There was a delay so he could get two attorneys which is his right in a potential capital case. The defense says they still have to review a lot of evidence in the case. We are still working our way through a massive amount of discovery and were just starting our investigation, so not in a position to really comment on the facts at this point. Would have been nice to have a plea earlier, but we have a date set, so were ready to move on. Reporter estradas family was in court. I did pray for the sergeant and actually i prayed to him. I speak to him. Just that im really, really, really sorry and i hope god gives him the strength, too. The next step is a preliminary hearing march next year where the evidence against the defendant will be laid out and a judge will decide whether he goes to trial. I know they didnt have cameras in there today. Does the suspect still look like he looked in those pictures from last year . What was he like today in court . He looks the same, hair down to the shoulders. We werent allowed to film him and he didnt show any emotion. I looked at scott lungers father, too unbelievable strength to sit right there at every hearing feet from the accused killer. It is nice to hear the mother of the suspect talking. You dont hear that every day. I was surprised. She could have just been rude, but she aggressive graciously agreed to talk to me but she graciously agreed to talk to me. So sad because he never had a chance, routine traffic stop. The man pulled out a gun. Shot him in the head, just a horrific situation. Still to come a trip to las vegas is usually a fun getaway for folks. It was all business for the raiders today. Up next what was discussed in a key meeting about the tax that would be used to build a stadium near the vegas strip. Weve been swamped the last three weeks. Students are back at school, but some havent been able to sit in a classroom. Next we check in to see how families in local School Districts are coping with the new vaccine law. Narrator it wasnt that long ago. Years of devastating cutbacks to our schools. 30,000 teachers laid off. Class sizes increased. Art and music programs cut. We cant ever go back. Ryan ruelas so vote yes on proposition 55. Reagan duncan prop 55 prevents 4 billion in new cuts to our schools. Letty munozgonzalez simply by maintaining the current tax rate on the wealthiest californians. Ryan ruelas no new education cuts, and no new taxes. Reagan duncan vote yes on 55. Sarah morgan to help our children thrive. We showed you earlier how the oakland as are looking at a possible site along the oakland estuary for a new ballpark. Meanwhile the oakland raider are considering a move to las vegas. The president was giving a presentation to tourism officials in las vegas. Five days ago the raiders applied for a trademark for las vegas raiders. As for a move, the nfl owners would have to approve it and there are also questions whether las vegas has enough of a fan base to support an nfl team. I got to admit, the drawing of that stadium is beautiful. Our sports director is here with more on all of this. What do you make of all these developments . I make of it to be honest far fetched. Its a nice little drawing, but there are so many hoops they need to run through that if i were a raider fan now, i would say dont even make this a blip on your radar screen. Really . No. 1, i dont think the city of las vegas can sustain filling a 68,000 seat stadium. I dont think the nfl owners are going to approve it. I dont think that in any way, shape or form that las vegas has any idea. The cost keeps rising every time we hear about it. They have to do something. Theyre spending an awful lot of money to do these drawings and time to go there. I dont blame mark davis for entertaining ideas and offers because he cant seem to get a stadium built in oakland and i dont blame the city of las vegas for getting excited about it. I just think in todays reality of having an nfl team, i think we are minimum if everything went perfect. I think were probably four, five years away from us having any real traction. Let me give you a little Counter Point. Sure. You say you dont think las vegas can fill a 68,000 person stadium. Right. Because las vegas isnt big enough. Las vegas is bigger than buffalo, bigger than green bay and green bay has no trouble selling out their stadiums. Also the nhl now has awarded a franchise to las vegas, so obviously they feel there is enough of a fan base and las vegas is a viable market. I think theres a big difference in filling an 18,000 seat arena for hockey and filling a 65,000 seat arena for the nfl. Youll have a good fan base of loyal raider fans, as they say raider nation would probably migrate to vegas and probably enjoy that, but i just dont think over the course of following and absolutely supporting an nfl Team Las Vegas has never been tested in that regard. They even had a usfl team there that didnt make it. Do you think the nfl would even approve it in the first place . No. They need 75 approval and that is one of the reasons theyre fastraking this down there. The owners will meet again in january to see if they can get that approval or at least gauge that. I could make a Counter Point to that that even if the nfl owners dont approve a move to las vegas, who is the only guy who moved a team without approval . Mark davis dad al davis about 30 years ago. If theyre looking to push to move to las vegas, will that hopefully spur something on in oakland to say we want to keep them here . I think thats part of it. You cant blame mark davis for entertaining other offers because he hasnt been able to get the powers that be in oakland to move on that, but i think its so convoluted right now because if the as do get that waterfront stadium and that happens, then that will free up the coliseum site and maybe we can get some Real Movement on that. I think the raiders would be happy with being the only stadium resident. Theres also the question of san diego was hoping to get a new stadium built. San diego could go to l. A. If san diego gets a new stadium, they stay in san diego. That opens up the stadium for the raiders to come down and share it with the rams and thats a beautiful stadium. My true opinion about that is the nfl definitely doesnt want the raiders in los angeles. I dont think theyd get approval for that. Bottom line you think raiders are going to stay where they belong. I really do and if anything does transpire and gets serious with a move of the raiders out of oakland, its a long way off. I can see why theyre excited down in las vegas and maybe some raider fans here in an uproar. Las vegas raiders just doesnt have the same ring to it. It takes an awfully long time to move any team anywhere. Its not imminent, three to four years away minimum. To see more images of the proposed stadium for the raider, log onto www. Ktvu. Com and look for the Photo Gallery on our homepage. Students are facing a new state law heading back to school. All kindergartners and 7th graders must be vaccinated, but how have bay area families and School Districts been coping with all this . We sent ktvus rob roth to find out today. Reporter at this Public Health clinic in oakland students continue rolling in to get their vaccinations. Weve been swamped the last three weeks. Reporter one seventh grader couldnt enroll in his middle school in hayward until his mother got him his shots. He started today. They would not allow him in school until he got his shots. Reporter that is the new law in california. Kindergartners and 7th graders must be vaccinated. Those with certain medical conditions can opt out, but parents cannot use their personal or religious beliefs to keep their children unvaccinated. Were seeing a few in the past on personal beliefs and theyre starting on their series. Reporter about 1,700 Public School students hadnt either had their immunization records processed by the district or still needed to get their shots by monday. Maybe some of them havent had access. Maybe some of them are new to the country, the area, the state with a new law. Reporter we checked with several other bay area School Districts. None are reporting any serious problems. In San Francisco 93 of kindergartners and 7th graders are vaccinated. The rest are given 10 days to comply. In Contra Costa School District its reported 99. 95 have been vaccinated. The unified School District expects to have all students immunized and back in school by early next week as parents wrestle with the new law.

Some hikers were at the lafayette rim trail last saturday when one of them became overheated. Other hikers say it was a really hot day and they were all taking breaks in the shade, but as they hiked toward the end of the trail, that man collapsed. We witnessed him kind of fall in slow motion off the trail into the brush on the side of the trail and we ran to meet up with him and he was having a seizure. At that point i called 911. Witnesses say it only took rescuers three minutes to arrive on the scene. Fire Officials Say the man was suffering from heatstroke. Rescuers say always remember to hydrate before, during and after you hit the trails to avoid a medical emergency. In Pittsburg Police pulled a blind man who was unconscious out of his burning home last night and in the process saved his life, but one of the officers was injured during the rescue. Ktvus Paul Chambers tells us how the officer is doing and also spoke to the officer actually credited with saving that persons life. I was there. Reporter officer zachary holler is all smiles now, but wednesday evening it was a different story. As soon as i left the apartment, i could see the smoke billowing out of the house.

I think they just do their jobs. You talk to men and women in the military and go hey, thanks for your service. Its just what we do. Its nice to show those stories about the good things they are doing and they were able to save that man and we get to show it. I dont think theyre being humble as much as they are just being them.

Today the worlds first selfdriving taxis began picking up passengers in singapore as part of a test. The taxis are operated by a company out of massachusetts. The company said one of the reasons it selected singapore for the first test is because drivers there tend to obey traffic rules. For the test the cars do have a driver up front. That driver is prepared to take over, if necessary. Uber will begin offering rides in Driverless Cars in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, in a few weeks. Farmworkers rallied to the State Capitol today in support of legislation to phase in overtime pay for those who work in the fields, but tonight supporters are expressing disappointment the bill didnt even come up for a vote. Reporter they came by the hundreds shouting yes, we can in support of a bill granting overtime for those working more than eight hours a day in the fields. Oh, yeah. We normally work 10 to 12 hours a day. Reporter Guadalupe Ramirez says the field work is tough on families. Its hard work. We dont have a lot of time to spend with our families because we spend most of the time in the fields working. Reporter and those long hours under the sun can take their toll. Ive worked hard as an emergency room doctor taking care of my patients and i could not keep them alive because of the long working conditions that they have. I think 10 hours under the sun shortened my patients lives. Reporter farmworkers arent the only ones not making overtime after 40 hours in california. Actors and ski instructors are also exempt. This bill will require me to find more workers because we cant afford to pay overtime. Reporter a state assemblyman says higher labor prices will lead to higher labor prices and more. It will lead to food spoiling in the field. For people who work in agriculture the consequences of the bill will be devastating. Reporter in the Assembly Democrats quickly realized they didnt have the Political Support needed, so they pulled the measure without a vote much to the dismay of farmworkers. Its a disgrace here in the state of california, the most progressive state in the united states. It still after 78 years farmworkers cant get the same rights as any other worker in the state and get overtime pay after eight hours. Ktvu fox 2 news at 6 00 starts now.
