Right now crime scene technicians are back on the scene. They were earlier this morning. The technician was waiting for some of the condensation to evaporate on the cars parked in the parking lot so he could dust for prints and get additional evidence.

Three people were taken into custody. And police are not looking for any other suspects connected to this. They dont think there is any outstanding danger to public safety. Police were already in the area when the gunfire broke out. They were able to respond within minutes because they are already doing extra patrols in this area near the Shopping Center because of concerns of side shows happening in the neighborhoods near by.

Milk was 4. 88. Now 24 a gallon. Wow. Recently that was the experience for shoppers at a Grocery Store in San Franciscos knob hill district. Tipping point took over the store and set the prices at five times the normal price so everybody would know what it was like to live with poverty line prices. Lets look at what happened. 62 . What happened . 66. 85. 66. 85 . Yes, sir. Yes, sir. I dont think that is right. 25 for a box of spinach. Butter of course 27. 45. I come here all the time. It is not 25. 50 for soup. That is [censor] these four items. Yeah. Theres a special today. It is poverty line prices. Every is five times the normal coast. We are joined by Tipping Point founder and ceo daniel leary. Thank you for coming in. Fired up shoppe shoppers there. Yes. What was the goal of the Campaign Good to make people aware, to create some empathy for the one in ten families who are living behind the poverty line here in the San Francisco bay area. We all can agree that in an area as wealthy as this, to have that many families living below the poverty line is unacceptable. Tipping point, we have always sort of tried to stay below the radar. We thought this was a moment in our regions history that we have so many things at our disposal that we can attack, that we can tackle this problem of poverty. What bert way than to show better way than to show people by going into a shopping mart and seeing what everyday goods cost. We were talking off the air, the price of eggs. Normally 6. Yes. For someone with the average Median Income in 9 San Francisco area is 150,000 a year. So for someone at 24,000 a year it feels five times more expensive. A carton of eggs feels like 30 to them. What did people say once they found out this was an experiment . Did anyone say oh my gosh i had no idea thats what people went through. You had fired up shoppers. Yes. Once we told them what was going on, they took a step back and understood. It didnt hurt that we also paid for their paid for their groceries and they were in on it at that point. And they have helped us spread the word. You i think the problem is that well, first of a you made it personal. Yeah. We all know there are families who cannot go to the store, load up the cart with everything that they need and extras that kids want. I dont see that when i go grocery shopping. Thats right. Why do we need to see them to realize it is happening. It is a great question. I appreciate the question. We get in our cars and come to work. And you can drive right by that family who is living in their car. And you dont notice. This is a way that everyone can relate. Everyone has to go grocery shopping. Everyone has to get their basics. And so what better way to make people aware than doing a piece like this. The challenge specifically in San Francisco, i mean, we saw some aerial footage there. Yeah. I went to high school in the city. It is so expensive now. How do you compare that to being in a different city. Oakland, you brought up mayor shaft in an earlier segment. It is expensive in every region. We see a divide throughout this country. People cant afford the basics throughout the country, not just San Francisco. We can talk about San Francisco all we want. San jose is expensive to live in. Oakland has some you know, talk about the brooklyn the brooklynization of oakland. This is an issue. It is a region issue. Yes. It is a National Issue and something that we need to understand that people are suffering and struggling. We need to make people aware of that in real time. People watching this say, wow, what can i do. Yes. Is there something that you recommend to do to help people who cant afford food . Your twitter segment that you get where you get people to do what they can do. Everyone can give a little bit. They can give 25 or 50. They can go to our website, tippingpoint. Org and play with the calculator and understand what it is like for them and for someone living below the poverty line. We love giving tuesday. Everybody has been shopping and thinking about giving gifts to family and friends. Today is about what can we give back to the community. We appreciate you shining a light on this issue. We need to do more of it. It cant just be a oneday thing. We dont want people to leave. We do stories of people who leave that that cant afford the bay area. We love the bay area. The diversity of the bay area. We have to fight for them to stay here. We need better housing and transportation systems. This is a small way to get people engaged. You have to make people aware of what is is going on in the community daily, which i appreciate you doing. These are tough issues. If everybody gets involved, we can make a difference. Be unstoppable. You are also the chair of the super bowl 50 host committee. Is that hangover done . I mean, we made money for the city of San Francisco. The nfl said it was the best super bowl they have ever seen put on. I think the bay area really shined. 167million people watched that day. And we got to show off the best of the bay area. Yeah. Look at our november weather. Yeah. Thats right. I thought it was very informative. I liked the campaign. Thank you. Thank you. Since 2005, Tipping Point has raised more than 120 million. Very cool. We put the video of the experiment on ktvu. Com. Look for it under the web links section under the mornings on 2 tab. You can also find it on ktvu app. In the spirit of giving tuesday, we will go live to the berkeley food pantry to show you the best types of food to donate and what bay area food banks need more than anything. We will be right back. Our floor director was showing us this new sweatshirt. He has a new sweatshirt because it is so darn cold, steve. I thought it was a cyber monday purchase or something.
