stuck in traffic and are staying at home. we have really nice days ahead. we do. temperatures will be warming up. you guys starts today more so as we go into the weekend. changes still look to be on track for middle of next week. but again, i'll deal with that on monday and tuesday thirties, though, for plenty of the higher clouds have moved west and south and out of the area here, but still a few high clouds around. but most of those are senior. the coast was flirting. flirting yeah, it looks like it's about ready. done so mostly sunny here today with friday on my mind, it would be nice it would be mild to warm. we do have an easterly breeze. so that's going to translate into some warmer temps , which means sixties, maybe some upper sixties by sunday. alright, sounds here. it was bad. got better now it's good. it's actually pretty good there . especially for friday. yeah, for a friday, i would say it's even better than most fridays right now. at the bay bridge. we have not had one back up today, and i just believe that a lot of people are going to be on the road getting on the road to get out to wherever they're going to

holiday weekend or perhaps just taking it easy. looks like we may have. there you go the shots back. you can also see that traffic on the bridge is a little bit slow once you get on it. and there's a little slowing here and there, there's some slowdowns highway 4 to 42. but again compared to what you normally see. it is lighter than usual. 7 31, let's go back to the headlights. former oakland police chief laurent armstrong says he is considering his legal options now after the mayor fired him earlier in the week. ktvu sally rasmus in the studio now to tell us the reaction of another former oakland police chief who sued the city and won the case. good morning, alan. good morning, david and kirkpatrick was the first one and to leave the oakland police department in 2017. she was fired three years later. but then sued the city for wrongful termination and won a jury awarded her $1.5 million. now the question is, will laurent armstrong the latest opd chief to be fired? take similar action before firing him. oakland mayor sing tao had put armstrong on leave after an independent report obtained by ktvu claimed

he did not do enough as chief to hold some of his officers accountable for misconduct that misconduct involved in opd sergeant who was the driver in a hit and run. who never reported the crash and then also fired his gun inside an elevator at nopd headquarters. that sergeant was never disciplined, and the report says the chief ultimately bears responsibility for that. mayor xiang tao agreed. now, in the backdrop of all of this, the oakland police department has been under federal supervision for the past 20 years because of a police abuse and corruption case in 2003, that federal oversight was supposed to finally end this may. but the mayor says armstrong's mishandling of that investigation put in jeopardy the timeline to get out of federal supervision. and that was part of the reason she said she had to fire him now. kirkpatrick says she understands the mayor's reasoning, but also says that having a revolving door of police chiefs is extremely destabilized. opd has had 10 police chiefs in the past 10 years. i think that there's culture issues and still need to

be addressed what they do need. as the ability to have system controls that should. be bumpers around reform so that it doesn't matter who the chief of police is. now in his defense, armstrong said in a statement. quote. i continue to believe that my termination was the result of a fundamentally flawed process that resulted in unfair inaccurate conclusions about me. i am continuing to evaluate my legal options to preserve my rights and my hard earned reputation and quote now. as for kirkpatrick, she won her wrongful termination suit after a jury found she was fired. in retaliation for exposing corruption among the oakland police commission. the circumstances around armstrong's firing are different, but kirkpatrick now travels around the country as a consultant working with law enforcement agencies in their department reforms. gasia and dave back to you. all right, thank you, ali time now. 7 34 san jose city leaders want to find new ways to

help the homeless as more extreme weather is expected next week, the santa clara county coroner's office says. since january, 1st 28 on housed people have died in the city during stormy weather, and san jose mayor matt mehan says his goal short term is to build as much temporary housing is fast as possible. we committed ourselves to building 1000 interim emergency housing sites. these are meant to be temporary, but they give people an individual room with the door that closes and even a private bathroom now said the leaders say, providing shelter for the unhappy house during the cold weather. it's difficult and many people don't feel comfortable in a warming center. people steal your stuff or fighting or sometimes it's first come first serve. some people have precious items that they can't leave behind. they only let you bring in one bag. mehan says. the plan for temporary shelters includes

refurbishing old hotels and other unused buildings just to get people off the streets. two year old girl has been found safe, but police are still searching for her mother, who is accused of abducting the toddler . crystal mendez doesn't have custody of the child. investigators say she took the girl from home in san jose on wednesday. the toddler was later found at a relative's house in oakland. mendez is still wanted in connection with the abduction . she was last seen wearing a white hooded jacket, skinny jeans that erupted the knee. anyone with information is asked to call san jose police 7 36. san francisco police cracking down on prostitution in the mission district. police officers are now going undercover as sex workers catching suspected johns own cap street. seven people were cited wednesday night alone, and assistant police chief david lazar said it only took 13 minutes before the first john approached the undercover cop. if you go to cap street, you never know if it's a female officer that's standing on the corner. posing as a sex worker

a jury awarded her $1.5 million back then. now the question is, will the run armstrong the latest opd chief to be fired? take similar legal actions. now the circumstances around armstrong's firing are very different from her. patrick's jury found she'd been wrongfully fired in retaliation for exposing corruption among the oakland police commission. but the oakland police department has had 10 police chiefs in the past 10 years, and kirkpatrick says the high turnover is extremely destabilizing for police department even though she says she understands why oakland mayor tsingtao fired armstrong. an independent report obtained by ktvu claimed that he did not do enough as chief to hold some of his officers accountable for misconduct that misconduct involved in opd sergeant who was the driver in a hit and run and never reported it. that same sergeant also fired his gun inside an elevator at nopd headquarters. that sergeant was never disciplined, and the report says the chief ultimately bears responsibility for that. mayor xiang tao agreed and said that hit and run investigation was part of the

reason she fired armstrong. this was a potential criminal matter and any time as a chief that you have an officer who's potentially involved in criminal issues versus just a policy violation. it's always going to get your attention and are you intend to want to follow that with a little bit more, uh, earnestness. now in his defense , armstrong said in a statement . i continue to believe that my termination was the result that resulted in unfair inaccurate conclusions about me . i'm continuing to evaluate my legal options to preserve my rights and my heart earned reputation. the oakland police department has been under federal supervision for the past 20 years ordered by a federal judge to make some serious reforms. after police corruption case back in 2003 now that federal oversight was supposed to finally end this may after nearly two decades, but now there's questions about that timeline being delayed because of all this, the mayor says a nationwide search for a new

police chief for the oakland police department is now underway. gasia and andre back to you. thank you. city leaders in san jose are looking for ways to help people living on the streets with more extremely cold temperatures. expecting next week, the santa clara county coroner's office reports 28 on housed people died in san jose since january, 1st during weeks of stormy weather, and san jose mayor met. mehan says the storm short term goal is to build as much temporary housing as quickly as possible, and we committed ourselves to building 1000 interim emergency housing sites. these are meant to be temporary, but they give people an individual room with the door that closes and even a private bath. bathroom. city leater forn housed during cold weather is people don't feel comfortable in warming centers. people steal your stuff or fighting or sometimes it's first come first serve. some people have precious items that they can't leave
