>> i'm incredulous, given the fact that the da's office thought enough to file this case. however, they don't have the materials assembled. this recall with pamela price. >> i think they're trying to be strategic around that. >> ktvu fox two news at five starts now. >> good evening. on this friday i'm cristina rendon and i'm greg lee. >> it was in april of 2021 and mario gonzalez died after being restrained on the ground by three alameda police officers. >> his death drew comparisons to that of george floyd. it also renewed calls for greater accountability in bay area policing. now more than three years later, those three officers have been charged with manslaughter. >> new at five tonight, our crime reporter henry lee is live at the alameda police department with the latest. henry >> well, this case has certainly taken many twists and turns. the three officers were initially cleared by the previous da and now charged by current da. pamela price, who has pledged to prosecute alleged police misconduct. but today, it seemed like everyone on both sides of the issue were upset at her.

police officers james fisher cameron leahy and eric mckinley made their first court appearance friday on charges of involuntary manslaughter in the death of mario gonzalez in alameda. they did not enter a plea in a case some say was undercharged for a case like this, a case that not only was all video that it was a murder committed and the charges aren't even murder, it's actually manslaughter. >> that's only a three year minimum. and that's a huge, huge problem. >> the three men were working as alameda police officers when they restrained gonzalez near park and otis in 2021. an initial autopsy noted that gonzalez was under the influence of meth and was obese. but a second autopsy commissioned by his family says he died of restraint asphyxiation in charging the officers. alameda county da pamela price reversed a decision by her predecessor, who had cleared them of wrongdoing. even so, everyone seemed critical of price on friday. julia fox is an attorney representing fisher, who's seen here and is now a contra costa county sheriff's deputy. she accused the da of baselessly

charging the officers out of desperation because she's facing a recall. >> it is so riddled by greed, crippled by reasonable doubt, that i very much look forward to that reality only being affirmed by a jury. should we get that far? >> attorneys for the officers have blasted price for what they call a political prosecution. >> traditionally, the elected da is acknowledged as the honorable da, and i think that her action, certainly in this case, are anything but. >> gonzalez's mother, edith arenales, and relatives also attended the hearing, as did law enforcement officers edgar sanchez once taught gonzalez in oakland to be in there with a room full of police officers, including the ones who murdered mario. >> it was it was not easy. and so but we always stand tall as people. >> officer leahy, seen here in a department post recognizing him for dui arrests, is on paid leave, as is officer mckinley, seen here reading to children.

major announcement of its 145 years of being headquartered in california. >> today, we announced we're moving chevron's headquarters from san ramon to houston to enable better collaboration and engagement, both internally and externally. >> that could be a significant blow to the suburban city of 86,000 people, where 2000 chevron headquarters employees work. just a week ago, chevron richmond refinery director, head of a major asset of chevron, reacted to my question about its moving its headquarters to texas. >> we haven't moved the headquarters of this company to texas. the headquarters are in san ramon. we just we just we just moved to a bright, shiny new facility in san ramon. that's really nice. >> i think chevron has been leaving the bay area for a long time. >> jim wunderman is president of the bay area council, a consortium of many of the bay area's largest employers. >> it's a california namesake. it's a company with a tremendous history here. so i think it means something with a company with that kind of california roots decides to pick up its

leadership and move to texas. and i, i don't think it sends a good message to other companies, to folks we met at a san ramon post office. >> agree. >> absolutely. does. you know, we could, clearly use the revenues. and i think it's not even just san ramon. california in general. you know, we're losing too many businesses, and i hate to see that happen. so hopefully our, the powers to be will do a better job trying to keep these companies here because you're losing all the tax revenues. >> sad to see that, it's, perhaps a testament to the policies in california, but i think san ramon's pretty robust community and definitely lots of lots of businesses around. so i think they'll be fine. >> the refineries and many of their offices, projects and assets will remain in california. >> i think chevron will remain, remain here in terms of their california operation, their ceo, mike wirth, said very much that.

fremont in 1956, but in many ways it remains its own community. >> as our sal castaneda shows us, that includes the food. >> niles is a fremont neighborhood that feels like stepping back in time, finding a good place to eat is pretty simple, since restaurants are all within a relatively small area that feels like its own small town. skillets restaurant is right on niles boulevard, and on weekends there is a line out the door. i suspect it's because the food is good here and reasonably priced for large portions. take a look at these plates. you're not leaving hungry, but it's more than just the big meals. >> a lot of people like the environment that we have here family environment, big portions of food, people loves the

service that we have. very friendly. >> drew evans comes here almost every day and they definitely know his name. >> it's like family here. they know my kids. they know what my kids like to eat. they know what i like to eat. when i walk in, there's a table for me. it's like coming home. >> this place has character, including a nod to charlie chaplin's place in niles history. it's been a while since i went to a restaurant where they had fresh squeezed and ice cold orange juice. it's frosty and served in a mason jar with the pulp. as soon as i sat down, i started looking around at happy people eating often, too busy to talk. i saw a club, sandwiches, burgers, pancakes, and more. priscilla bravo is co-owner of skillets. >> if you've never been here, try the rosa bravo. it has like chorizo, bacon, spinach, jalapenos, avocado and then we grill the serranos. >> i like breakfast burritos, so i ordered skillets. most popular with chorizo, spinach, bell peppers, chicken, and cheddar cheese. if you know me, you know

i like it when the tortilla on the burrito is crispy, we fold the burrito. >> then we grill it on the grill to give it the extra crispy flavor to it. >> i taste the homemade chorizo in there, and the staff brought me this, which looks like it's a milkshake, but it's not. >> this is our iced coffee. it's very popular. we have different flavors oreo, nutella. we have vanilla, mocha, caramel. >> the locals like this place and so do i. >> right here with if you like good gourmet coffee, let me spill the beans about devout coffee just down the street here in niles, devout uses the pour over coffee method from freshly ground coffee roasted on site. >> if you drink your coffee black like i do, this is your spot. >> we kind of stick to the basics, our our focus really is coffee. so, we're not very focused on all the stuff that goes in coffee, like sirups and milks. >> i tried a coffee called zombie, which is made using an anaerobic process. that means it's slightly fermented, and

that gives the coffee a slightly different flavor profile. >> it should be a lot more dynamic and flavor a lot more complex. sometimes not as clean as. just like your basic wash coffee, it's subtle and good and worth waiting for. >> the pour over, which takes longer than just pouring it from a large pot. however, if you're coming by in the morning and just need a quick, good cup of joe to go, devout coffee has that too. and yes, you can get a latte here. all in all, if you like good food and drink, niles might just be your cup of tea. i wanted to give a quick nod to broncho billy's pizza here in niles, which offers huge slices of pizza for a decent price. >> this is a slice. okay there. you did it, sal. i'm hungry now. hi, everybody. good evening to you. i have so much to talk about, so let's get right to it. this is our live weather camera. paints the picture of the marine layer pushing on shore. when we get these glitches. i believe it's because there's a lot of energy in the atmosphere above it. clouds at 18,000 to 20,000ft. it's all associated

with that. yes, it's the second day of august and we've got rain showers in california. it's pulling through and lifting up in a northerly direction. we had rain showers all around the los angeles area, primarily in the mojave desert. today. rain showers from barstow to victorville came down pretty hard between 230 and 250 this afternoon. now it's riding up in a northerly direction. it's riding up 395 past bishop, trying to make tracks towards reno, nevada. look at all those lightning strikes out there. and what i'm concerned with is here's chico, here's redding, and we've had a lightning strike right over there, pretty close to where the fire continues to burn out of control. we don't want any dry lightning, any kind of thunderstorm activity. and that's what's in the forecast for tonight. if you're heading to monterey bay, we have a good 40% chance of all this activity moving into monterey bay and also carmel by the sea and look at that. this is virga near the hayward area. it's rain and it's

evaporating before it hits the land mass. due to the dry nature of our air, we've been mighty hot. and so those raindrops are just drying up. but take a look at our futurecast. this is the subtropical moisture it derived in arizona. and now it's over the northern portion of the state of california, lifting up towards mendocino and also humboldt county. by tomorrow morning sunup, we'll begin to see some clearing, but partly cloudy conditions from sacramento to the east bay. and then by tomorrow afternoon, it's pretty much all said and done. we'll just have that marine layer hanging tight to the san mateo coast at this hour, 87 degrees in livermore, 85 in santa rosa. it's 64 at sfo and 82 degrees in san jose. the winds are all over the place will be fluctuating throughout the overnight hours. southwest. for the most part, though, 10 to 20mph tonight. boy, that's very mild. 50 to 69 degrees. now

here's the bottom line. we do have a chance. a chance of an east bay light shower or dry lightning. tonight we'll keep a watchful eye on that high clouds tomorrow. and even hotter temperatures. less clouds and not as muggy on sunday. that area of high pressure. that's a key component that will continue to produce a chance of a sierra nevada thunderstorm tonight. and throughout your saturday. otherwise, stable weather on sunday. go ahead, pick out your neighborhood 65 to 99 degrees. so you know somebody in discovery bay is going to hit 100 or maybe even brentwood. here is your extended forecast. the dog days of summer. they live on here in the bay area 100 degrees by tuesday. >> summertime in the bay. roberta. thank you. olympic legend simone biles is putting the focus on mental health. one day after winning her second gold medal in paris since sixth overall, biles says she's been leaning on her support network to help deal with the intense pressure of being in the olympic spotlight. >> years ago, i never thought i'd step foot on a gymnastics floor again. at 7 a.m, i saw my

therapist and there's a time change, so she is so amazing for allowing me to do that. just making sure i'm mentally well. >> biles also sharing a picture on instagram with the caption mental health matters. at 27 years old, she's the oldest athlete in more than 70 years to win the all around women's gymnastics. the olympic champion grabbing attention in the political world today with an apparent jab at former president donald trump's comments about black jobs. quote, i love my black job, biles posted on x in response to a post from singer ricky davila, who had said, quote, iconic photo of the goat mastering her black job and collecting gold medals. mr. trump has been heavily scrutinized for arguing during the june presidential debate that migrants are taking black jobs and hispanic jobs from americans when pushed by moderators at this week's national association of black journalists convention, trump told the audience, quote, a black job is anybody that has a job. >> sha'carri richardson made her

olympic debut with a win today. the 24 year old sprint star completed her first race this morning, dashing to a 10.94 second time in the opening heat of the first round of the women's 100m. she advanced to tomorrow's semifinals with a chance to move on to the final round later in that day. it would be her first opportunity to medal at the olympics. >> next, at five seconds from death, the california woman's horrific accident while on a family vacation and how her five year o s ay have x

and i got a call about five minutes later and it was my sister in law screaming and crying that andy franks is leaning heavily on his faith as his family endures challenges unimaginable, his wife crushed by his tree, his son a witness by the grace of god. he just clicked in his mind that he needed to start running and yelling for help. >> monday, the family was on vacation in sun valley, idaho. his wife, natalie, mother of two boys, was hiking with their five year old that the wind was starting to pick up. >> he heard a loud noise and he turned around and he watched the tree smash her from behind. >> franks says his son is a hero for bringing his mom help. >> he told me last night for the first time that he tried to lift the tree off of her, and he wasn't strong. >> but it's not an easy role being a five year old hero. >> he kept yelling at me that she's dead and you're lying to me. >> there were many touch and go moments for natalie. first, getting her help, a good samaritan heard colton's screams

and found her under the tree. >> was this man was laying on his belly with his cheek on the ground, face to face with natalie, and he was just telling her, let's just do one more breath. >> she's rushed to the hospital in ketchup. franks credits the doctor there for calling on a larger trauma center to airlift her to boise. natalie suffered traumatic crush injuries to her left side. she's already endured multiple surgeries to set broken bones and restore blood flow to her leg. >> her left leg was twisted 180 degrees around her. two feet were facing in different directions, almost like how you organize your shoes. >> friends and loved ones are rallying with her. in orange, susan hirasuna. >> this is ktvu fox two news at six. a big announcement from one of the bay area's largest employers. >> chevron says it's moving its headquarters from san ramon to texas, and what some business
