7:05 am
>> everything's on the table right now and we love the city. gump's has been part of san francisco and part of union square for over 150 years. we help build this vibrant area. it would be extremely disappointing for us to have to pack up and leave now, san francisco. police say the burglaries at union square were coordinated, in fact, as of this morning, they've arrested 9 people connected to that crime will see if more arrests to come. >> well, in the south bay. police in san jose are now saying 2 different robberies at 2 malls across the street from one another might have been coordinated as well. they say a group of robbers stole about $40,000 worth of merchandise from the lululemon store and santana row sunday night around the same time police say at least 2 people hit the valley fair mall across the street and they stole roughly $7,000 worth of goods from a sunglass hut. there. >> whoever was waiting outside and multiple vehicles. let me add that it was just wasn't one or 2 cars. it was 4, 5, cars. they're planning to load
