11:04 pm
children who have died. >> reporter: this doctor says right now stanford's children hospital is partnering with school districts to hold town halls to change the narrative. one that some on the fda panel still believe. >> and i think that is a mistake. they are used to seeing, you know, hundreds of thousands of adults dying, to them if a few hundred kids die it is not a big deal. it is a big deal. they say there is a low risk, well, 500 children die of something that is preventible, that is unacceptable. >> reporter: bay area is preparing, marin county plans to vaccinate 15,000 children the first month shots are available. the doctors say for hesitant parents pediatricians will be key to changing their minds. >> pediatricians are the most trusted member of the medical community to parents of a child. i have an 11-year-old granddaughter in this age group?

11:06 pm
thank you. tomorrow the governor will visit an alameda health clinic to promote vaccinations and booster shots. all part of an ongoing state effort to increase a number of shots in arms that decrease covid-19 rates. new video to show you tonight of a crook turning a san jose hair salon into a drive-thru. it happened at lynn hair design yesterday morning. the police say a cash register and other items were stolen. surveillance video shows someone walking out of the store with their arms full. the shop looks closed because they boarded up the windows. the owner wants everyone to know they are open for business. well, first of its kind case in contra costa county. a sheriff's deputy found guilty for killing a man. the guilty verdict is not what the family was hoping for. kpix5 reporter joins us live now to explain that, andrea? >> reporter: ken, history was made in this courthouse

11:08 pm
know if the verdict will lead to justice or if the judge will hand down a lenient sentence. >> mr. hall held accountable to the maximum of the law which we understand 17 years. he should have to serve every one of those in a california penitentiary. >> reporter: they will look at to retry the case family members of hall walked out in disbelief. hall's attorney says his client was trying to protect himself and will be looking to appeal the verdict. >> that is a serious charge. i think it is unwarranted. we are going to take every step we can in terms of addressing that. >> andrea, he is also being investigated for the death of another man earlier in the year, do you know where they are in that case? >> the dea says the investigation is still ongoing, no decision if charges
11:09 pm

11:17 pm
sunshine wednesday afternoon and until the sun goes down around 6:30 on wednesday evening. we will see plenty of sunshine on thursday and friday as well. that will help the temperatures return to average levels for late october. right now the temperatures are mostly in the 50s but still a couple spots hanging out near or above 60 degrees, 60 in concord, 61 in oakland. middle to upper 50s elsewhere. we will settle down in the lower to middle 50s. slightly above average for this time of the year because of the influence and the blanket of clouds over head. high temperatures, clearing out, they will return to average levels, upper 60s, mostly lower to middle 60s. thursday's temperatures will be similar, maybe a slight cool down on friday before the temperatures dip a little more heading into the weekend. let's talk about the rain chancees and we will put the two -- chances and we will put the two long-range models so we can compare. they agree there will be moisture in the area to start the day on saturday. some of that could sneak down
11:18 pm
into the north bay on saturday and it is only a 1-3 chance of passing showers for the northern half of the bay area. farther down the line the models agree that another system will approach the coast heading into sunday night. they agree the best chance of showers move into the north bay. here is where things diverse. the european model spreads over the bay area. the rest of monday, the forecast says it will fall apart. as for all long forecasts we will have to wait and see. near normal temperatures for the next three days, cooling down heading into the halloween weekend. halloween does look dry. for the north bay and along the coast we will leave that slight chance of a shower in the forecast on saturday. not a wash out. we will not have to worry about waterproofing the kid's costumes. we will update you on monday's forecast as we get closer. >> good advice, thank you,
