make sure this does not happen again. state senator kevin de leon on the left originally made the proposal in 2011. he wants fake guns to be translose cents or brightly colored -- translucent or brightly colored. the nra and toy companies fought the proposal and it failed. we asked the senator about that. >> reporter: i imagine the point is for them to look real and no one wants a gun that's pink, yellow or orange. >> we're talking about children's lives, lives that have been cut down short unfortunately sadly by law enforcement because law enforcement did not have the ability within a split nanosecond to discriminate between the real thing and a fake gun. >> reporter: federal law requires imitation guns to have an orange tip on the barrel. the law doesn't cover pellet guns like andy lopezs. the nra had no response to comments but their position in the past has been that air guns

and bb guns shouldn't be treated like toys and therefore shouldn't be brightly colored. live in santa rosa, cate caugiran, kpix 5. >> someone broke into a san jose elementary school and stole $70,000 worth of laptop computers and ipads. more than 60 of those devices were taken over the weekend from the technology room at river glen elementary school. parents had spent two years raising money to buy the computers. the value is below the insurance deductible so they won't be replaced immediately. the state assembly committee will hold a hearing next month into the deaths of two workers on bart tracks in walnut creek. the chairman of the committee of labor and employment says the hearing is to get to the bottom of what happened this month. the workers were struck by a train operated by a trainee during the recent bart strike. police are hoping to speak to a woman who may have information on the death of a woman in a san francisco hospital stairwell. investigators say the man told a supervisor at general

hospital he saw someone lying in the stairwell october 4, four days later lynne spalding's body was found. an attorney for the hospital told spalding's family the supervisor checked the stairwell that day but saw no one. happening today, san francisco police chief greg suhr will hold a town hall meeting to discuss this past weekend's officer-involved shooting. officers shot a suspect who was on the run after shooting another man. the suspect treated at a hospital while a victim fled the scene. tonight's meeting will be at the marina middle school at 6:15. today the alameda county sheriff and fire departments will release more information on the probe into castro valley assisted care home. investigators say 14 patients were left with just a skeleton staff at the valley springs manor facility. the state shut down the facility last week citing a long list of violations including inadequate amounts of food, cockroaches and rodent droppings. widow of the nevada middle school teacher who died saving

are now providing plenty of food for birds and racoons. and plenty of headaches for the valley water district. it's been releasing water into the creek from local reservoirs but it hasn't helped. >> we had been keeping the water going to fremont avenue and expected that the water would continue to flow there so it's a little -- we just don't know right now exactly what caused it. >> today valley water district workers will crack open a pipe about a mile and a half up the creek. they hope that water, which comes from the delta, will soon solve the problem. 6:36. halloween night tomorrow, lawrence karnow, can you deliver? >> always a scary forecast! because now a lot of trick or treaters are depending on the weather and this time of year it can get dicey at times but i think this year's going to work out great. we are going to see a lot of sunshine coming our way and some dry weather. today, we are starting out with some spooky patchy fog early on! some chilly temperatures too. in the 30s in the north bay valleys. 40s and 50s elsewhere. by the afternoon we are going to see some sunshine. still on the cooler side of

average but not bad. toward the afternoon plan on about 68 degrees in livermore. 68 in santa rosa. and 67 degrees and mostly sunny skies in san jose. all right. let's check your "kcbs traffic" with elizabeth. >> people heading towards the bay bridge toll plaza crowded in the cash and fastrak lanes now that the metering lights are on. they cleared a stall that jammed things up on the deck for a while now backed up beyond the 880 overcrossing. things leveled after down the eastshore freeway. we had an accident approaching ashby avenue long since cleared but it took a while for the backups to clear out. westbound 80 more than a half hour now from the carquinez bridge to the maze so it is slightly busier than usual. the delays are worse than normal but again, they haven't grown in the last half hour or so. in livermore, westbound 580 approaching portola a stall is still there blocking a lane and it's jamming up the works through the altamont pass and

livermore valley. 26 minutes, heavy category, towards the dublin interchange. also very slow through antioch and now those sensors, they are continuing to slow down even towards pittsburg-bay point and on into concord. they are turning yellow. through milpitas westbound 237, a few brake lights actually past zanker road. and bart, everything is on time. that is your latest "kcbs traffic." california could get millions in federal money to pay for sick prisoners. under the healthcare reform plan, medicaid money would reimburse the state for inmates treated in outside hospitals. it would not, though, help pay for healthcare within the prison itself. the pew charitable trust estimates california could get nearly $70 million a year. a secret floating construction project has created quite the buzz on the bay. >> yeah. we have been looking into google's barge since friday and wanted to get a close-up look at what's going on. our brian webb got on a boat to give us an exclusive look at what google is up to.

reporter: we shove off for treasure island, destination the mysterious floating google barge and the secrets that lie within. something even san francisco's own mayor admits he has no idea about. >> no, they kept the secret from me, as well. >> reporter: as we cruise up, almost close enough to touch, you can see cargo containers stacked four high with dark netting at one end on a barge some 250 feet long. theories range from a floating data center, retail store, a super secret laboratory, all the way to a floating paintball arena. the crew says they did some work on the project but are sworn to secrecy so we found our own expert an architect whose designed projects using shipping containers and building on water. >> at this scale for a floating structure it's the first i have heard of. >> reporter: joe says cargo containers are functional, cheap and by building on water, you're out of reach of many regulations. he thinks the theory of a data

center cooled by sea water is interesting but his money is on a floating google shopping center. >> they wouldn't be doing something so visibly public with so much secrecy if they didn't want some kind of marketing blast when they announced what it was. >> reporter: but alas, the google-built barge on treasure island will keep its secrets at least for another day. brian webb, kpix 5. >> one of our sources believes the barge will become retail space for google glass but it's a guess because the mountain view company is not talking. that isn't the only mystery google barge. there's another one like it floating off the coast of maine. >> both sides of the country. it is 6:40. uber added a special service for national cat day. it was actually -- it will deliver free friends to right to people's door steps to get a cuddle in. why it wasn't easy to snag a kitten to snuggle.

that's next. >> have you ever hullsled to catch a bart train? it got to the platform and realized it's not your train. the chains letting riders know if they need to rush even before they enter the station. >> how about the market on this wednesday? open up a few minutes ago. let's check the early numbers. the dow record territory perhaps again today. everything is up. kcbs radio's financial reporter jason brooks will crunch the numbers and more right after the break. ,,

to deliver kittens door-to- in honor of national cat day yesterday. the only problem. there weren't enough kitte uber promised to deliver kittens door to door in honor of national cat day yesterday. the only problem, there weren't enough kittens. word of the promotion traveled quickly and uber couldn't keep up with the demand. uber also promised cupcakes

with the kittens. there is a global wine shortage production down 5% last year with an under supply because of bad weather in grape growing regions of france and argentina. the u.s. produces 8% of the world's wine. >> only 8%. >> a thought it would be more. the government shutdown helped keep down job growth this month. even in the private sector they felt the impact here now to chat kcbs radio's financial reporter jason brooks on this wednesday. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, frank and michelle. certainly not an encouraging sign when it comes to hiring, which is really weakened over the past several months. private payroll tracker adp says it was a gain of 130,000 jobs this month. that's well under expectations. lower september by 21,000. we won't feel the full brunt of the goverment shutdown until we get the labor department report. that will factor in public sector jobs, as well. but it is a concern and will likely keep the federal reserve bond buying plans in place. fed wraps up a two-day meeting today and expectations are that
