power. utilities shut power to prevent electric lines from sparking a wildfire during extreme wind and extreme fire conditions. that move led to criticism about communication and how that shutoff was handled. >> i think the puc is doing the right thing to open up an investigation about these massive shutoffs because when the cpuc first approved them, they approved them as a last resort. >> pg&e says that the company has received feedback and is working to implement them in future shutoffs. the search continues for armed robbers who shot a young man twice just to get a necklace. this is video of the robbery in progress earlier this month. we obtained the video just today. you can see several men with guns drawn in the middle of the street. it happened in the usually quiet neighborhood of east san jose.a very latest. robert, what do we know? >> well, as you can imagine, it

his minor league players. >> i'm sorry that i didn't make all the right moves. everything that i did i acted on from a place of goodness and from my heart and wanting to do the right thing. i was naive. i was in over my skis and trying to do things on my own when it was very clear that i needed counsel. >> he did apologize. he also said he consulted with bruce bochy and buster posey during the interview giants. gabe kapler signs a three-year deal with the team. books, but no beds. it's a startling number. the number of bay area students dealing with homelessness is on the rise. a mix of funding and software to find them places to stay while they're in school. a business and tech recorder scott budman joins us live from san jose state. how does it work, scott? >> well, it works like this, jessica. like the bay area, san jose also dealing with a homeless issue. but now along with help from the city, homeless advocates and a

he says that cost is one of the major reasons why. >> each year we bring in a live tree from the shasta mountains. it costs us about $20,000 to put up and to dispose of. so from a financial standpoint, not having to spend $20,000 each year on the tree is one of the reasons why we decided to make this change. >> okay, 20 brand for a tree is a lot of money. but that's just one of the reasons. what's the other? >> so the other big reason is an environmental concern. the executive director says in order to make that live tree look branchs from other trees ad going to be used for christmas in the park. he says the problem with that is the tree cannot be recycled afterwards. that is a lot of work for that tree. okay. we understand. thank you, anoushah. we've been telling you the olympics are in tokyo next

guess we'll have to settle for cloud cover right now. so that's moving in at the higher levels. the clouds with our pattern change, then down at the lower levels right here at the surface. you can see the fog moving into san francisco right now. pretty aggressive push. so that does mean potentially here some drizzle as we move into tonight. right now in san francisco, at 56 degrees, and no surprise here, the cloud cover, the fog stays put as we head throughout tonight. and this will be a bay area wide problem tomorrow morning. so no sunglasses needed for that morning commute. from the north bay to the south bay, i have you with that cloud cover, and there is some of that spotty drizzle right at the coastline. by the afternoon, i don't see any major clearing. so we keep the overcast right here across the bay area as we head through your thursday forecast. temperatures are dropping, though, so at least makes it feel more like november outside. not too bad here. as you hit your thursday forecast, 63 in morgan hill. 68 in antioch. 65 concord.

to publicly announce an investigation into his political rivals, the bidens. >> to withhold that assistance for no good reason other than help with a political campaign made no sense. it could not be explained. it was crazy. >> reporter: ambassador taylor adding that a staff member overheard a phone call between president trump and his ambassador to the european union. >> a member of my staff asked ambassador sondland what president trump thought about ukraine. mr. sondland responded that president trump cares more about the investigations of biden. >> reporter: republicans focusing on the timeline, arguing that ukraine's president zelensky didn't know military aid was being held up during his july phone call with president trump, the heart of the impeachment inquiry. >> president zelensky went on to confirm a number of things, that there was no pressure, that there were no conditions, that there were no threats. >> reporter: and hitting the core of their defense of the president, republicans noting that aid was eventually released. >> he didn't announce he was going to do an investigation before the aid happened. >> that is true, but only after congress began an investigation.

already found out about during the public, the closed hearings. so today we're seeing it for the first time. talk about the difference of actually seeing the testimony. >> it's two things. when you read it, it's one thing. when you see it, it's another. people talking, back and forth, what have you. but there was something else today. if it wasn't a john dean moment, it was close to it. that's when bill taylor went ahead and said guess what? since i last testified, a former aide talked to me and heard president trump talking with gordon sondland. you'll get to know anymore you don't already, right? the ambassador to the european union. and after that conversation, sondland said the president is more excited about getting biden than he is in giving the weapons to ukraine. that is a key moment. and by the way, the president said gordon sondland, gordon sondland, i don't think i know him. gordon sondland gave the president a million dollars and made that phone call in the mi straimon so many people around the score what you watch for

normal people more than ten to 15 minutes, let alone to watch three or four hours of this. s hd that water cooler moment the next day and the week or so after that. we don't know. it's going going to have an awful lot to say about what the senate does. we know this. the democrats made their story. they made it rational. made it easy to understand. no talk of quid pro quo as much as did the president do something bad or not. the republicans said look, there is two things to worry about here. number one, ukrainians got their military assistance, so what are you talking about? an number two, it's hearsay, hearsay, hear safe. that gets the whole idea of circumstantial evidence. and oftentimes circumstantial evidence doesn't go very, very anywhere. two things here. this isn't a trial. it's an people. he impeachment hearing. when you get 10 or 12 people saying the same thing, independently of each other, you got to wonder. >> what's the next step? >> well, we're going go through more of these things. marie yovanovitch comes up. she is the ambassador who was

fired or relieved i should say. she now has a long story to tell herself, how it all happened. next week there is going to be a few who come back. and perhaps a third week. meanwhile, we have to see if anything comes out of the court hearing about whether the other people should testify. we've heard all about that, so i have to see. there is more to come here. and the question is will this just be drip, drip, drip, i've had enough, or is it drip, drip, drip, the water foam. >> it's been a couple of decades thank you. vice president pence is in california tonight. i want to show you a live picture in moffet felt in mountain view where air force two expected any time now. it's been a busy schedule pour the vice president and his wife karen pence. a ty arrived in monterey, a short drive from monterey where the president addressed a fundraising dinner. tomorrow he heads to the nasa ames research center and speaks to some 200 worker there's and then he and the first lady will head back to washington, d.c. itea t
