8:03 am
the span and actually looks good on the golden gate. 802, is the time. and another developing story that we're continuing to follow as what's going on at cal berkeley, the uc campus has been the site of a camp in really a sit-in of students calling for a ceasefire in gaza for a couple of weeks. yeah, i was going say that protests now into its second weekend. so kron four's will tran is out there. >> on the university campus right now as we're approaching graduation finals. all of that will and what are you seeing? >> well, james, you can see the soon is moving about so classes. they are still ongoing. and graduation is just a couple of weeks away. the students walking around. they want to learn things. of course. but there are students inside that ensue. want to teach something. let me show you video of what's going on. you saw some of the tents right behind me in my live shot. here is video from just around the corner. it has turned into you can call it an encampment. there are dozens
8:04 am
of tense at this location and i saw police officers go through their never had never had to interact. it's been peaceful. you can see a big bad or on sproul plaza. sproul hall saying some of their demands. one of the demands not on that banner is having uc berkeley acknowledge according to the protesters that what's going on in the middle east right now between israel and palestine is a genocide. so they want to continue this until their demands are met. a lot of the students are waking up, leaving the tense going into the classrooms while they're doing this. there are other people watching what's going on. james starry, i got a chance to track down a student who is looking to transfer to berkeley. here's her reaction to what's going on. >> think that there's different ways to help. i don't necessarily think that you have to pitch a tent, although that is an option. i thought about it last night. but i'm sure that they need
8:05 am
food and that they need water and that they need a place to maybe shower and come back. so whatever i could do to help, i would. >> so you said that you might even think about joining them. if this continues after you yeah, i would see how i can help. she's actually up from los angeles right now and she's survey what's going on. and she says she's going to go back there to tell her fellow protesters. >> what's happening at u c berkeley? this is not just, of course, at u c berkeley in the bay area. this is also happening at stanford. yes, there have been arrests across the country, but for the most part, it has been peaceful. we have not seen a lot of damage and no damage here really at uc berkeley and get this james darya over my left shoulder sproul plaza is the epicenter. pretty much for campus and right next to the protesters. should anything happen so far? nothing has happened. you can see police officers are just feet away and ready to pounce
8:06 am
on the situation. back to all right. so calm and no face off there. thank you will. but elsewhere around the country, we have seen. >> shouting matches and in some cases, some confrontations with the police in arrests with these let's take a look at some of the video that we have from other universities around the country. there have been some sit ins, some rallies, some marches here. you can see protesters shouting, lots of signs, lots of noise. and in some cases, police in riot gear. you'll see that in just a moment. and then there have been in some cases, hundreds of arrests at these various protests that happened at college campuses across the country and james, you are saying graduation is coming and usc has already decided that they have canceled their main graduation ceremony because of protests that have been happening there. another story that we're following is another united flight that had to be diverted because of a mechanical issue. and it ended
8:07 am
up landing here at sfo. there's a live look at sfo. what happened was this flight us. it happened. originally did in sacramento and it was going to denver. but yesterday it had to land at sfo because something was going on with the boeing 7.37, it's unclear exactly what it was. they just called it a mechanical issue and they said that the pilots did not have to make an emergency landing, but they did touchdown sfo safely with 160 people on board and then a transfer. those people too a different aircraft and they made it to denver about 2 hours later. >> well, the family of a man left in a coma for the last 20 days is suing east bay regional park. police and attorney for the family says that officers approached deontay fason at martin luther king junior regional shoreline park because his car had expired tags. police say that he tried to run off and ended up in the water. and that's when the family's attorney says officers tased him and he went unconscious. in the south

8:16 am
then comes the flip boom right about there. you can see in solano county, particularly that's where you start spilling into. also the sacramento valley. it's an offshore direction, but i think our environment can handle what right now. there's no talk of fire watches or anything early into the week. mostly sunny and mild cool breeze that we talked about getting to about 80 on wednesday because the winds are going to shift die down a little bit too late in the week. let's keep that going lower 80's, lots of sunshine now for this weekend. there is a system a drop south will call variable clouds shower. put question mark there because not really sure how that's going to come together. cool again. we know that 60's are back and that's going to be a big drop of almost 15 degrees or so for the inland valleys. so it's a little shocker for you compared to how it's going to be towards the latter portion of the week. 65 san francisco about 71 on for oakland, 72 san jose keeping the sunshine for everybody. middle 70's to the far east bay for highs today. 73 at the santa rosa. very palatable. a cool 68 thank
