a moment. a gun is pointed at an east bay daycare worker just outside of the business. >> we have kids inside, so that's kind of a scary situation . >> frightening moments for an oakland daycare center. good

evening everyone. >> i'm mike mibach and i'm claudine wong. that incident happened last thursday morning when there were children inside of that facility. surveillance video showing two suspects, one armed with a gun, pulling up in front of that center and stealing a car right from the driveway. new at ten ktvu zac sos is live in oakland after speaking with the owner of that daycare. and zach, what is she telling you? >> well, understandably, just how relieved she is that no one was hurt, as you mentioned, this all happening around the time that parents were dropping off their their kids. kids were already inside the building. employees were inside the building. and the owner's son, i spoke to him as well. and he says that gun was drawn, despite the fact that there were a number of signs that read child daycare on the building. >> any situation like that, you kind of just think about what could have happen. like, you know, what if he just decided to fire? it was around seven in the morning last thursday when jelani baines says two masked men rolled up to his mother's

east oakland daycare, their surveillance cameras capturing it all, popped a window, took the window out inside his mother, krishna hamilton, her daughter's camaro parked outside. >> it kind of rumbles when you hear the engine start up. so that's how you know the vehicle is being started. >> her assistant, who was too shaken to appear on camera, opening the front door to check on the car to find a gun pointed in her direction. >> it was really early in the morning, so i don't think it was too many kids inside at the time. but you know, bullets have no names on them, so if he would have started shooting it would it would be terrible. >> the assistant running back inside. >> we have signs in the front of our daycare that say 24 hour child care. and we had parents scheduled to be coming at any moment thankful no one was hurt, but worried about the future. >> i fear for my life. >> i fear continuing to have my business in a space where i don't feel comfortable and safe. >> as for her daughter, she's ready to move out of oakland.

all the equipment she works with as a professional hairstylist was in the trunk. >> oakland is missing out on the new business owner, who won't be opening up her business in oakland. she'll be taking it elsewhere. >> this as oakland released new data thursday reporting overall crime in the city, down 33% compared to last year. >> i wouldn't say the crime rate is down. i think the way things are reported might be a little different. >> jelani and his mothers view many neighbors have just given up reporting everyday crime. >> it really hurts because we love oakland. we love being here. but something has to happen. you know, because it's getting out of control. >> her message to city leaders. >> we've got to see more police presence. we've got to see more community engagement with the police. we've got to see these criminals get off the street. >> and it turns out this is not even the first time they have had a family car stolen. they say it has happened outside the daycare. three times before. so, claudine, frankly, they say they

are not expecting to get their daughter's car back. >> no, that is such a shame, zach, i know they i mean, they obviously already have cameras up to try to protect themselves. do they have any plans to do anything differently to try to, you know, kind of change the situation out there? >> you know, they're kind of at a loss right now. they say the best solution they've found has been to make sure that they block their cars into the driveway. >> all right. well, hopefully they get it back. and we're certainly sorry this happened to them. zach, thanks so much for that report. well, as zach just mentioned, new numbers are showing that crime in oakland is down. coming up tonight at 1030. we're going to dig deeper into that data and tell you what city leaders say is behind that trend. livermore police have now identified the man suspected of killing two people over the weekend. >> police shared these photos of 30 year old tungsten vasquez. authorities say they believe the oakland resident shot and killed a 26 year old woman and a 21 year old man, the two killed on

april 27th just before seven in the morning at a la quinta inn on south front road. police say they believe vasquez knew the victims, and tonight he remains at large and should be considered armed and dangerous. the deaths were livermore's first and second homicides of the year. >> and now to the protests on college campuses. here's a live look at uc berkeley at this hour, where tonight, the number of tents is multiplying as protesters set up camp, they are urging the uc system to review its investments and cut ties with any weapons manufacturers and related military supply industries involved with israeli attacks on gaza. >> there are no universities currently standing in gaza, so we are doing this, for our fellow palestinian student comrades as well, who have no institution to go to as a result of our affiliation with this institution. >> protesters say they're willing to risk getting expelled or arrested in order to get their demands met by the

university. now, despite escalating violent clashes at other universities around the country, the demonstrations at berkeley have remained peaceful. >> that's right, students at cal say they've actually talked with uc staff about the call to divest ktvu. jana katsuyama has the story. >> student protesters say they've had meetings with uc officials calling on the university to review its investments and cut ties with any weapons manufacturers and related military supply industries involved with israeli attacks on gaza. >> we've met with all, all sorts of people, chancellor christ, the staff. i'm not sure about the positions of each of these people, but, like it's in progress. >> on thursday, they said a small victory. >> it was a near unanimous vote in favor of the bill. >> protesters say the undergraduate student body voted for a bill to block expenditures of student funds on companies linked with military industry. they hope the university will do the same. >> all these companies that are profiting off the war. so the primary aspect is complete divestment from blackrock, just to take our money, our tuition,

our taxes away from these companies that are making money off the blood of the people of gaza. what students are by and large calling for is divestment from weapons manufacturers, divestment from israeli businesses, and divestment from institutions, institutions or companies that do business with israeli businesses. >> professor christopher marsicano, who studies higher education, finance at davidson college, says this is not the first time student activists have called for divestment. in the 1980s, there was a similar focus on south africa, but university funding has changed over the decades, making divestment more complicated. >> but effectively endowment managers have to do is figure out what of the various different pieces of their very complicated endowment, meet those criteria. there are already index fund products that don't include weapons manufacturers or defense companies. >> the list is broader than that. there are other companies in the supply chains of these firms that are dedicated to the manufacturing, to the to the arms industry, that the

administration is being shown in these negotiations. >> i spoke with a representative for uc berkeley who would not give any confirmation of whether there are meetings taking place, and also said that the university has no comment reporting from uc berkeley, jana katsuyama, ktvu, fox two news. >> officials at stanford university say they've sent evidence to the fbi of someone on campus wearing clothing typically worn by fighters with a hamas terrorist organization. students have created an encampment and the university's white plaza. now, officials say a photo of someone at the encampment wearing a green headband, a face covering and glasses eventually came to the attention of school administrators, who then sent it to the fbi. the person has not been identified as of tonight. now, stanford's president says the student encampment violate its school policies and that the student protesters will be disciplined. the demonstrators say they are unfazed by the threats as cleanup is underway at ucla, where 210 protesters were arrested early this morning

. >> that was following a nine hour standoff with police, ucla workers clearing structures and debris from royce quad today after law enforcement breached the pro-palestine encampment on campus. bulldozers were used to move trash into giant bins. eventually, those were filled to the brim. graffiti still covers the outside of royce hall, but it too will eventually be removed. earlier today, protesters were arrested at ucla and they were released from jail. demonstrators greeted with food and cheers. we are told those arrested were cited for unlawful assembly and are set to appear in court at a later date. a charge of unlawful assembly in california carries a maximum penalty of up to six months in jail, or a $1,000 fine. ucla classes will be remote tomorrow as campus operations are still limited at this time. >> southern california state assembly member rick chavez

r.br. is requesting an immediate investigation into possible civil rights violations at ucla during demonstrations this week. the assemblyman has sent a formal letter to the u.s. department of education citing incidents in which he says demonstrators on campus harassed jewish and israeli american students, denying them equal access to campus facilities. zubir also wants the uc regents to look into why it took so long for law enforcement to intervene when the encampment was attacked by counter-protesters on tuesday night. in a statement, the assemblyman said in part, on all accounts, ucla has failed to uphold its most important responsibility, which is to protect the safety and well-being and civil rights of all of its students. freedom of speech and freedom to peacefully protest are fundamental pillars of our democracy. but violence, harassment and intimidation are not speech and have no place on campus or anywhere across town. at nearby usc. after canceling its main commencement ceremony

addressed the unrest on college campuses today. biden saying free speech is essential to protecting our democracy. but acts of protest must be conducted within the rule of law. >> dissent is essential to democracy, but dissent must never lead to disorder or to denying the rights of others so students can finish the semester and their college education. look, it's basically a matter of fairness. it's a matter of what's right. there's the right to protest, but not the right to cause chaos. >> the president also says the protests have not prompted him to change his policies in the middle east. and our coverage of the campus protests continues online. head to our website at ktvu .com for the latest developments here in california and across the country. >> new at ten oakland police gathered to honor the lives of two recently fallen officers at the alameda county memorial wall

road diversions based on traffic congestion. this year, the department is doing more than collaborating. officials say officers will ride in the lowrider parades in this 1964 plymouth. >> i think we're fortunate the community is willing to collaborate with us and that we're have the opportunity to be involved in these parades. just because we remove a band doesn't mean that the community wants to be part of the parade, polanco says, cementing a better relationship with the sapd was always a goal from the old days to the ugly days to the current day of two parades when we kind of sat down, you know, and talked about things and, and, since then the relationship has grown. >> we have a line of communication so that we could further grow that. and, you know, hopefully, like within five years, it's even better. >> police officials say they expect hundreds of thousands of people to come to san jose this weekend for the two day celebration, which culminates with cinco de mayo. on sunday, we'll put a complete list of events on our website, officials say if you plan on coming, may

want to try mass transit or rideshare in downtown san jose. jesse gary, ktvu, fox two news. >> great advice there, jesse. thank you very much. there will be no rain on that cinco de mayo parade on sunday, but saturday is an entirely different story. all right, let's get to it right now. it was a gorgeous spring day here in the bay area. today. temperatures span from 57 degrees in pacifica to a pair of sevens in napa and in livermore. otherwise, the outside number today was 81 degrees in santa rosa and also in fairfield. now, meanwhile, taking a look at the golden gate bridge, i've been keeping a watchful eye on this. we've had some fog work its way in and out, and right now the fog is just hanging off the coast, roughly about 500ft deep. now here we go with our current air temperatures. and i wanted to highlight these because we're pretty much in the 60s away from the bay, except throughout the tri valley. and look at half moon bay at 50. then you factor in that wind gust up to 23mph. it feels downright raw along the

seashore this evening, 36 mile per hour wind gusts at sfo. the winds are beginning to calm to the north and to the east, but these winds will ramp back up again tomorrow and they will blow out of the west 10 to 20, with occasionally a stronger gusts watch. all eyes on this to the north of us. this area of low pressure, very uncharacteristic for this time of the year, when you see the cotton ball effect here, that's that colder air mass associated with it. so it's kind of like a12 punch the rain. then the colder air mass. the bottom line is let's track it together. tomorrow morning officials sun up is at 610. we won't have any problems with clarity there. and then we see the clouds invade the bay area, especially the peninsula and the city by the bay, san francisco by the evening commute. everybody is cloudy friday night. then here comes the rain. 609 is the sunrise on saturday and we're not going to see it. the front is slicing through the north bay. it continues to drift down into southerly fashion. this is

the main event right here. by 8:00 in the morning and then throughout the afternoon. it's the backwash, a hit and miss scattered shower. so it's primarily a morning event, but we will still need that umbrella from time to time throughout the afternoon and early evening hours. it's out of here by sunday. so the bottom line is we do expect a half an inch to a full inch of rain on saturday. that's usually our monthly total for the month of may. the winds will blow. they will be gusty, and a winter weather advisory with up to 12in of snow in the highest elevations of the greater lake tahoe area. 50s tonight. overnight, very similar conditions again tomorrow in comparison to today and then again, the cool wet day on your saturday. >> okay okay. thank you roberta. well one of the greatest lacrosse players of all time was in oakland this week showing his expertise to some local kids. paul raible was at laney college yesterday coaching up players from the oakland lacrosse club,

which works with oakland public school students, to field eight middle school and six high school teams. raible was a four time all-american and two time national champion at johns hopkins before embarking on a 14 year pro career that did include a stint with the san jose stealth, as well as 14 all-star appearances. he was asked about the commitment and the talent level in oakland. >> what stands out here in oakland are a group of guys that just care about each other and care about the game, and that's attracted me. i want to be around those type of people. what you find now more than ever, as lacrosse has emerged and back in the olympics, are guys that are world class, doesn't matter where they're from. >> yeah, lacrosse will make its return to the olympics in 2028. in los angeles, it's the first as a competitive sport since 1908. >> all right, the giants mike yastrzemski does something that was very common for his grandfather when he played at fenway. we have the big moment. the story that unfolded right in front of his family, coming up

in sports. >> then on the 11:00 news, we continue our coverage on the protests taking over campuses nationwide with demonstrators continuing to ask how and where the university puts its money coming up. an expert weighs in on how higher education got so invested in investing it's time to get away and cache in, at cache creek casino resort, to rock and to roll.

to go all out or... go all in. with four stars and rising stars, northern california's premier casino resort is the perfect place... ...to do as much -or as little- as you want. make your get away now and cache in at cache creek casino resort.

she's now wearing a new hat as the newest member of the oakland roots ownership group. >> and sean from the foul line doing it all. he was known as the master of the mid-range throughout his 17 year nba career. sean livingston dominated the competition 10 to

15ft from the basket, and shaun livingston was so efficient he knew they needed some scoring. now, livingston will try and dominate in the sport of soccer, joining nba hall of famer jason kidd, nfl legend marshawn lynch and rocker billie joe armstrong of green day, among other celebrities. as an investor in the oakland roots and in the community where the now las vegas resident said he left his heart. >> it's just a special place to be, a special place for any sports teams. obviously it's been a rough couple of years. you know, there, you know, with some of their franchises. but i mean, you look at what the roots and the soul are doing there in the community really being an anchor, you know, to that community and their growing fan base as well. >> it's a fan base. livingston knows very well, winning three titles in his five seasons with the warriors. now, at age 38, five years retired, he says he doesn't miss the 82 game grind, but he does miss the playoffs

and his former teammates. i'm still invested. >> those are my guys for life and you know, it's pretty painful to, you know, watch the playoffs without the warriors because it's just it's not the same. can the warriors get back to the promised land one more time with the core three still intact? >> what if it meant trading one of their young players and future draft picks to bring back, say, kevin durant for another run? >> any time you have a chance to play with a player like kevin durant, it's hard to turn that down. but me personally, you take that shot. you know, if you have a chance to win a championship, if you truly believe that. but i can't speak for those guys. >> one of those guys is steph curry. so what will livingston tell his two young kids about playing alongside one of the best players in nba history? >> honestly, just how much of a good person he was. you know like and leader i mean he's you know a guy that leads by example and he lives his life his daily

life that way. and just even better person than he was a player. it's hard to hard to really say for somebody who's going to go down as one of the greatest of all time. >> as for his new role as minority owner of a pro soccer club, livingston admits he's a newbie to the sport. so he decided to have a little fun testing his soccer knowledge. if i say a clean sheet, a clean sheet, what am i referring to? >> you're crushing me, i'm going to give you one. all right? i'm going to give you one. all right, go ahead, go ahead. >> all right. good clean sheet is when a goalkeeper has a shutout ice. >> okay. no, this is good, man. i need it here. where's my pen? this is good. all right. okay let's go. >> how about a banger? a banger? >> here's rodriguez for the roots. he's going to let one fly. oh, my. >> it's got to be a goal from 4050 yards. you know, it's got to be. you got it. >> we're going to end on a high note. high note. all right jason

applebaum ktvu fox two sports. >> all right. the oakland a's were off today. but the giants were back in boston trying to salvage the last of a three game set. the family of mike yastrzemski, whose grandfather was red sox great carl yastrzemski, out at the park to catch the matinee. third inning we go. yaz sending one deep into the red sox bullpen for the solo shot. the family loves it, and yastrzemski even kind of gives them a little wave as he's rounding the bags. it's one nothing. giants one one in the seventh. here's thairo estrada bouncing one through the hole into right field. patrick bailey comes around and crosses the dish. two one giants just like that. they'd go on to tack on another one. three one was the final kyle harrison giving up just a run and struck out seven over five frames. the 15 and 17 giants now off to philly for a tough three game set. >> the 11:00 news on ktvu. fox two starts now.
