employee told me no one is available to talk about the issue and costco didn't comment on whether their shopping carts were used to deliver that meat. >> a lot of unanswered questions. >> we have new details about the stabbing of a san jose bouncer. six members of one family facing murder charges for frank navarro's death. two brothers, one sister and three cousins are indicted for the murder that took place last february. he was a bouncer at tres gringos bar. one of the suspects was denied from entering because he was using his brother's i.d. he called his brother who drove to the bar with the rest of the other suspects and allegedly punched a security guard. after navarro, head of security, confronted the group they attacked and stabbed him to death. a cop killer in an east bay

but you're right, officials do have to struggle with the need to help children, but punish criminals. the crime is not always major. what's surprising is these days the suspect is off on a minor. this morning, for example, police caught these four juveniles in east san jose in a stolen truck. officers armed with rifles busted a group of thieves, all four teenagers. the police chief worried that the spike is caused by juveniles face minimal punishment. today at a gathering of social service agencies geared toward children's needs, they have worked with the juvenile crime system says he's concerned about the recent spike and emphasized harsher punishments won't work. >> because they don't happen to believe that the way to deal with trauma among youth is to lock them up and throw away the key. >> a public health director agrees. we need to be thinking about where do these children start? where do that teenager -- where

were they when they were 2, 3 years old, what were they exposed to? they believe the upward trend involving youth is also because san jose doesn't have enough officers to respond to many crimes. nobody comes out and the people who do crimes know that, and we think that there's a lot of adults who are preying on or utilizing young kids. >> county officials say there are many more success stories with the juveniles than those getting headlines and coming up at 6:00, the programs helping those families and what to do about the hard core violent youth. live in san jose, robert handa, bay area news. >> thank you very much. legislators gathered for a rare hearing in santa rosa today. the topic of a north bay firestorm and where the investigation stand especially as it relates to pg&e. members of cal fire and the state public utility commission and pg&e answered questions about the fire and investigation. jerry hill wanted to know more about pg&e's recloser technology

administration is proving it in court. last february when the school erupted in violence over speakers invited by conservative student groups, that if, quote, cal doesn't allow free speech perhaps it should lose federal funding. now it is inserting itself in the subsequent legal fight. it followed the statement would have sued the university for limiting free speech. the lawsuit was dismissed, but the students are refiling their claim. yesterday rain and hail. today, sun and fog. and some beautiful shots here from sky ranger flying over the trivalley area late this morning. it's a beautiful shot. it could have been sunshine in one side and you have the thick fog on the other. it's beautiful and look behind us. >> i know. i can look at that for a long time. >> i might have another preview of that coming up here. >> fantastic.

>> full screen, people. okay. >> so we do have the weekend coming our way and dry weather moving in after some wet weather this week which is really, really nice. yes! there it is. tablg take a look at our high-definition camera and look at that golden gate bridge and '95 opened back in 1937, 746 feet high and the main span, some 4,200 feet long and it is a beauty. okay. let's bring you back into the weather right now. currently 53 degrees and we will see temperatures drop down to the 40s once we hit 9:00 and 10:00 at night and take your jacket if you're headed into san francisco tonight. as you head throughout this weekend, the rain line is going to be super close to the bay area. we are just a couple of hundred miles away of potentially getting wet weather, but we're confident we're not going to see any just because high pressure has moved into just the right spot here out here off the shore of california. if you're heading up to washington or oregon, you will have rainfall moving in there,

but for us, we do have the dry weather not only for tonight and tomorrow, but we think at this point for the next seven days and we'll have more in about a minute and a half on where we could have heavy rainfall moving in on the extended forecast and let's bring you right into saturday morning and if you want to sleep in and take it slow on the week end forecast and we'll have cloud cover out there and overall, it will just be cold out there and probably keeping you from going outside. those chilly temperatures and 37 in the trivalley and peninsula at 31 and the south bay at 42 and 39 in the east bay and 38 for the north bay and the high clouds in san francisco, and they'll kick on out of here. everyone expected to get sunshine as we hit your saturday forecast. let's take you into the microclimate forecast on saturday and you can see temperatures warming up to about 5 degrees and i think it will be noticeably different tomorrow and you will see it in the temperature and you will see some of that increased sunshine. 60 in cupertino and 60 in san

jose. contra costa, alameda counties and 60 in livermore and over to oakland, 58 degrees and a mix of sun and clouds in the peninsula. 61 in redwood city and san francisco dropping down to the 50s across the board and heading out to the golden gate bridge and right toward the marina, and you're looking at 55 for the embarcadero and through the north bay, 62 in napa and cooler in mill valley at 59 and point have as, 56 degrees. my extended forecast keeps dry weather in san francisco as we head throughout the next seven days and temperatures in the upper 60s and 40s for those morning lows and throughout the inland valleys we'll see numbers in the 60s as we head through the next seven days. the next possibility of rainfall at this point looks like it could be on february 6th, not a major storm system, but the next time we could have wet weather back into the bay area. we do have 40s and 50s and no

big snowstorm and nice weather to enjoy the one to three feet of snow they got this week. >> now i know why they call it the golden gate. >> oh, yes, yes, yes! >> literal. >> jeff, thanks very much. >> coming up, is it discrimination in the beauty aisle? why walmart is being sued for storing certain products under lock and key. even if no one in your home smokes, secondhand smoke can be closer than you think. secondhand smoke from a neighbor's apartment can enter your home through air vents, through light fixtures and even through cracks in the walls and the floors. secondhand smoke is toxic.

but other products were easily available. she was escorted to the cash register and that other shoppers were looking at them. gloria allred filed the suit and if walmart is concerned about security it should be locking up all of its products. >> what appears to be racial profiling of african-american customers must end. we think that it perpetuates a racial stereotype that african-american customers should be suspected of being thieves and criminals. >> allred went on to say that she and gundy are seeking an undisclosed amount in damages and an injunction against walmart. walmart has yet to comment on the lawsuit. if you remember the main spillway fractured a year ago under the pressure of record rainfall, but the disaster forced nearly 200,000 people downstream to evacuate. the california department of water resources announced today
