investigators say a man with a bike was hit and killed on doherty road late last night. police are searching for a dark colored mercedes bends it has front damage. uc regents are talking about yet another tuition hike this fall by 6%. a vote is expected in july. police in richmond now waiting for a search warrant to go inside a warehouse they believe is filled with illegal marijuana. tara moriarty joins us to tell us more about this. reporter: apparently they just received a search warrant because we just noticed this white truck pull in here and that s going to begin taste they re going to use that to remove the marijuana plants. and a pit bull is actually credited for saving a woman that lives here as a watch woman. the dog started whining when it smelled smoke. she called the fire department and that s when they stumbled upon hundreds and hundreds of marijuana plants. we located a large marijuana grow, hundreds of plants possibly over 1,000 plants in numerous stages of growth. the pg & e officer responded and discontinued the service to the warehouse. reporter: now firefighters say this was an electrical fire per happen sparked by the high voltage wires that are rigged inside the facility for the grow land. pg & e has cut off all power. there s extensive damage inside. and no word yet on the street value of this marijuana. but they say this is definitely an illegal operation. if it was a legal operation they would go through city council. they have no record on that. folks are going to begin loading the plants out as we speak and we ll keep you posted on any charges filed. live from richmond, i m tara moriarty. it is 8:45. just this morning defense attorneys for john edwards told a judge they expect to rest their case this afternoon. reporter jonathan seri is live outside a federal courthouse in north carolina. so apparently jonathan the defense is not going to call edwards, his older daughter or mistress, is this rather surprising? reporter: yeah, it is. they had listed a list of very big witnesses. but they also said if they did not call these witnesses they would rest today and that s exactly what they did. it appears they were looking for leverage from the prosecution. when they were discussing, the defense indicated that they wanted the prosecution to agree to certain stipulations and if they would the defense would rest today without calling andrew young to the stand. well apparently, the prosecution has agreed to these stipulations, we re still trying to get a handled on what the stipulations are, but closing statements, closing argumenting are scheduled to begin first thing tomorrow morning. but for observers it s really been a roller coaster ride. we knew it would be a pivotal day but we weren t sure if it would be pivotal because of the nature of the witnesses who are being called or because the defense was finally resting its case. tori. yeah and we just learned that the case has rested, the defense team rested the case and the team telling the jury no more witnesses to be called. just remind us again what kind of punishment is edwards facing if found guilty? well, there s what s going to actually happen versus what he could face in theory. if he s convicted theoretically he could face $1.9 million in fines and eight years in prison. each of the counts carries up to five years in prison but many analysts are saying most likely if he is convicted the judge would make defendants concurrent so he would only face up to five years and quite possibly less in prison. of course his defense team has indicated that if they lose the case, that this case will be appealed, a big bone of contention is that the judge in this case has not allowed them to enter into evidence statements from former fcc officials, federal election commission officials expressing opinions that the money involved with hiding hunter did not fall under the facs definition of a campaign contribution. the judge won t allow that saying that the jury does not need to be hearing opinions from fcc officials, that that should be reserved for closing arguments. but edwards lead defense lawyer, abbie lowell has been frustrated each time the judge prevents him from entering this type of evidence. and yesterday indicated that it would likely be overturned on appeal if they lose this case. it is 8:48. a judge has reportedly declared the san francisco s fire chief is a dead beat divorcee. today s chronicle reports the judge found documents that allegedly show fire chief joanne hayes stopped paying spousal support 14 months ago. those payments reportedly stopped after a domestic violence incident involving her ex-husband robert shawn white. the judge has now reportedly ordered the city to take $3,300 a month from the fire chief s paycheck to pay off her former husband. time is now 8:48. a contra costa county s sex crimes prosecutor who s been on paid leave for more than two years after previously facing rape charges well he s about to get a pay raise for outstanding performance. according to the contra costa times an arbitrator ordered contra costa county to give michael gresset a 5% pay raise raising his salary to $551,000 a year. now critics are asking why an employee who hasn t worked in more than two years would get a pay raise. county officials say the raise is part of a union contract. the rape charges against gresset were dropped last year. the city of oakland has a plan for some of the old houses that have become eyesores. and the banks are not happy with that plan. the city council voted unanimously last night to make banks register blithed houses with the city once they sent out a default notice. if the homes are vacant the banks must pay a fee and maintain the appearance of the property. the banks though say they don t own the homes once a default notice is sent so they should not be held responsibility. there s a plan to improve parks in san francisco, it ll be on the
