on aggravated assault and other charges. good evening...i'm justine waldman. ( jr stone ) and i'm j-r stone. his arrest stems from allegations that he pulled a gun on a woman in arizona. kron four's spencer blake is live at the coliseum tonight. spencer, how are a's fans reacting to this news? it's a mixed bag, but several of the ones i talked to say maxwell's alleged actions didn't do any favors for the peaceful message he was trying to spread. this is the mugshot of a's catcher bruce maxwell, taken after a food delivery woman in scottsdale, arizona called police, claiming he pulled a gun on her."well i was a little bit upset because i feel it negates everything that he's standing up for, but to pull a pistol on a female delivery person? that's not right."near the end of the baseball season, maxwell became the first m-l-b player to kneel during the national

anthem, the trend started by colin kaepernick in 2016. because many kneeling athletes have said the gesture calls attention to racial inequality and police brutality against minorities, some baseball fans in oakland say maxwell's arrest is ironic."i mean, you can't continue to have a positive message and then change it by doing something negative like that. so yeah, it does taint it."scottsdale police showed up at the catcher's home saturday night. they booked him on suspicion of aggravated assault with a deadly weaponand disorderly conduct.but not everyone thinks this takes away from his kneeling protest."i don't know if it has anything to do with it. you know, allegations are allegations.""whether he made the mistake or didn't make the mistake, he still has his beliefs and he still has the right to protest in a civil manner."police say maxwell is being held pending his first appearance before a judge."it's obviously not the best example of him to pull a gun, and so i think it's definitely lost its meaning." the athletics organization said in a statement, quote, "we were disappointed to learn of the allegations.we take

this situation and ongoing investigation seriously." the a's didn't have any other comment right now, except to add that they're gathering information from the proper authorities.live in front of the oakland coliseum, spencer blake, kron four news.

heart goes out to the families and people affected by that. it's just, its, really, really, a bad way, bad way to go. it's a bad thing to hear. that's just bad all the way around." the san francisco police department is involved in the investigation, since a person died. the cause of the fire and where it started has not been released. in san francisco, philippe djegal, kron four news.

reality's sort of thrown out of the window and you can make it as gruesome or as gory or as frightening as you like. you can make innards spilling out and all sorts of stuff. halloween just comes and goes for us because we make buckets of blood at a time and all sorts of scary outfits."you get the impression that some here enjoy their work a little too muchemily pooley, make-up technician: "my perfect blood recipe is a golden syrup with some food colouring in. it's really simple but it works wonders and its edible as well so you can put it in your mouth. sometimes people put chocolate powder in there as well or coffee powder to make it darker but its good blood and very tasty."artem opened its doors to treat a lucky few to the tricks of their trade - and one device proved particularly popular.neil curry, london: "there's just ten minutes to go to the halloween party and you still haven't found that perfect costume. never fear, help is at hand with artem's mummifying machine!"it's a decidedly claustrophobic experience - but breathable bandages ensure no harm is done to the willing victim.

halloween holds no fear for the technicians at artem. they've seen scary masks and fake blood before - and have most likely made them too.neil curry, cnn, london. raiders fall to the bills 34 to 14... 49ers remain winless on the season... losing to the philadelphia eagles 33 to 10...
