not legislation bottles after the california, but we can't get it through. cannot get to the senate, although we did pass in the house and we need to understand that, you know, they say that is not guns to kill people. it's people that so people are just not true. you saw that this kid was able to get a gun, other mental health problems. no doubt about a major, major challenge. and that also. dad. there's that. we will never know how he came to do. this was in a mental health issue. it will find out that it some online by some group we don't know. we may find out something that this complex. yes, individuals will have mental health issues. no doubt about individuals may i think allies on the on the internet,

a social media. there's no doubt that's the case. that appears to be the case in buffalo where fellow radicalized the. by social media. all of issues back karlsson and fox put forward about basement. very all of that the and we have to have gun control legislation. just texas isn't open. but make sure it got anywhere in texas. and i understand you can also carry on school grounds or maybe even a school ground. i don't know. >> yeah, that's all information that we're going to learn in the the coming days about how this suspect got these 2 guns. the governor said he possibly had a handgun and a rifle and also find out about what, if any type of security was at that school, if there was any type of a security officer that was

allowed to carry a weapon or any of the teachers that were allowed to carry weapons, that they had them. if there is even a chance to use them all that information will come out during the investigation. the video that our viewers are watching right now is of grieving parents either outside the hospital or outside the school or at reunification center waiting to find out information about their students, about their kids. that could be anywhere from second 3rd or 4th grade. i i wonder what representative, but you would say to parents here in the bay area who have, you know, kids that age that are in school or in any age school about it, what you would be doing to protect them to make sure that this doesn't happen here. >> i have have grandchildren that or have that image. and there's pride. i've got i don't children or teachers and their particularly when this happens in the school because you get copy get kept silence

and notably is going to be on the social media and corners of this nation. will be seen a hero. so there's all of those issues. but the bottom line of this is he had a handgun. and he was motivated to use it. what is the motivation? what radicalized and the to shoot 14? innocent children? all right. go back to the clintons going 1988, what radicalized guy. no health issues. no doubt about it. and at the same time he was able to get an assault rifle. this kid was able to get a as long as guns are out there. risk is there and the children in the schools. they're to tell you all across the state of california and they go home, there's going to be ace sherry, us here in each of these children. certainly and the parents had with the

teachers. he said there was there a a security guard at the school? why in the do we have actually security why do we have know the characters? because country you they are everywhere and they're readily available. and the supreme court of the united states is making it more and more possible. these guns to be that made available. right to bear any sort action any time, any style anywhere? i don't think so. that's what the supreme court is taking us over the last 20 years. here we are. >> representative garamendi, thank you so much for joining us here during kron. 4 news at 3 o'clock today to talk about this horrific tragedy that has unfolded in texas and we really appreciate your time.

and get to avoid the heat that is sparking up. both heat advisories and red flag warnings for inland areas. areas like solano county do remain under that critical fire danger and that red flag warning through tomorrow at 11:00am. it's a pairing of the 90's and even triple digits with winds that will be continuously breezy and very dry both today and tomorrow. now, if you're just done with this heat already, here's the good news. even though this high pressure remains firmly in place, keeping us dry, it's not necessarily keeping us quite as hot. northwesterly winds are blocking out that ocean influence that oftentimes moderates, the bay area compared to inland areas like the central valley. well, that northwesterly wind begins to relax tomorrow. that opens the window for some ocean. cool there to slip right back into the bay area. specially starting on thursday. that's going to come along with the return of coastal fog. even some areas of drizzle and misty conditions right along the coast in a much cooler forecast all the way inland.

so that it would not suffocate. and with proper instruction from emergency services. the resident was able to free that raccoon safely. animal services told us this kind of behavior is not typical of raccoons, but it turned out that this mama had babies and one of the houses vents. so she was just trying to get back to them. the whole family now is all back together. taking a look, though, at our current temperatures on this very hot tuesday. when will we start to cool off? we'll find out after the break. >> plus another live look from texas where 14 students and a teacher are dead. this is a look outside of rob elementary school where the shooting unfolded this afternoon. families still waiting to find out about their loved ones. we'll have more information we'll have more information it's beautiful out here. it sure is. and i earn 5% cash back on travel purchased through chase with chase freedom unlimited. that means that i earn 5% on our rental car,

>> and then nice distraction. the warriors are given gearing up for game 4 of the western conference finals. if they win tonight, they will be on their way to the nba finals. kron four's jason dumas says in dallas at american airlines center with what we can expect today, she brooms, jason, or even get a sweet. what do you think? >> that that's what the warriors hope. that's what dubnation hopes for the warriors. just one win away from their 6th nba finals in 8 years. in one right. this is

familiar territory for this organization. but then in another right, it's pretty crazy to think that they have gone this far. this team has gone through so much in the last 2 years. 2 years ago, they were so bad they had the 3rd pick in the nba draft. then just last year, they didn't even make the playoffs. they lost a home game in the play in route to the memphis grizzlies. it was an embarrassing loss. they've had so many injuries over the last 2 years. klay thompson didn't play for over 2 and a half years. steph curry and draymond green. they were in and out of the lineup for 2 years and a lot of people around the tba. they were sure that that trio of clay dre and stepped good play championship level basketball anymore. but guess what? now? they are on the brink of an nba finals. they became the hunters, not the hunted. so it's easy to see why they can be distracted and it caught up in all that

hype as they look for another nba championship. but guess what? i was that shoot around today and everyone at shootaround was laser focused. everybody doesn't want to play another game in san francisco and a couple of days. they want to get back to san francisco and rest if they win today, they will have on. they will have 8 days. all they're not content. they know the close out game is the hardest. they don't want to play another game on thursday. want to wrap this series up tonight. they can see their goals staring them dead in the face. but they know they want to accomplish that. they'll have to stay in the moment. i was juror and thinking about anything beyond that tonight's game. that's where the danger lies. so >> we have to be locked in and focused just like we were in game 3 when we got off to a really good start and we set a good tone. we know how how dangerous dallas's, how well they play at home there. i

think more likely tonight to to make some shots early and and get off to a good start. and we we need to be prepared. we need to be on edge. nothing else matters. fact that you are so close to getting back to opportunity to compete for championships like >> can you allow your mind to >> kind of wonder a little bit. but then we. leverage our experience enough to know that you can't do that. and for us. always say stay locked in on what's happening right now. i haven't over so that they're in the game. and about just, you know, stay in the moment because what is fun and compete? you have to remember how much fun this stages. this atmosphere. but done anything. it. >> so guys, you can feel that sentiment. they're locked in their laser focused. they want to get this win and end this

series so they can get some rest before the nba finals. but with all that being said, it's still hard to completely focus on basketball. obviously, the tragedy down in southern texas just over 300 miles away at that elementary school. everyone here is thinking of that. so it's a day where they want to win the game. obviously they want to finish the job here in this series, but their mind isn't completely on basketball. just a very strange feeling in the air with that tragedy that happened about 300 miles south of here in dallas. just game. >> yeah, jason, i was wondering if the players or the warriors and said anything about what had unfolded during the school shooting. not that far from you. a couple 100 miles away. there was anything planned before the game tonight. and also just a coach kerr has said anything because he's been a longtime advocate for more restrictive. the gun laws. >> yeah, well, steve kerr is

set to talk 6.30, central time 4.30, back there on the west coast for you guys. and it's almost certain that he will address the situation when he sits down at the podium. as you said before, he had always addressed these type of issues. of course, steve lost his father to gun overseas many years ago. so this is near and dear to his heart. we will certainly hear from him. we haven't heard what they were before the game. i would imagine there will be a moment of silence. like said justine has just 5 and a half hour drive from dallas. that small town in southern texas. so >> it's definitely affected a lot of people. i came in the arena. you hear people talking about it. you see people huddled around the tv trying to get the latest news courses and of thinkable tragedy. and it's it's something that we have to deal with. why we do our job. and if it makes it kind of a weird feeling, but that's what's going on right now here in dallas. >> jason dumas live for us. warriors. all right. we

continue to follow the tragedy of texas for 14 children and a teacher were shot to death at an elementary school today. >> president biden is expected to address the country about this latest mass shooting. we expect that to be happening about 05:15am, tonight and we'll carry that for you live. but right now joining us live, this california senator alex padilla. thank you so much, senator, for joining us here during kron. 4 news at 3 to talk about this horrific tragedy. >> thank you to sting for having me but bp before we speak any further, i just want to say not just as a u.s. senator, but it's a father of 3 school-age children. my heart goes out to the families of all the entire vote while the community. this is a senseless that does not need to happen. >> how can we prevent something like this happening inside of a california school, the school in texas where this happened is where second 3rd and 4th graders went to school today. probably thinking at

the end of the year was coming. that summer was right around the corner. and there is just shocking tragedy there. how can we make sure that this doesn't happen to our families here in california or in the bay area or really anywhere else in the united states. again. >> but the design some common sense things that i can't and should be done. but let me sort of set the stage for anybody who's watching by saying this that i grew up in california and i remember a grown up with a fire drills, an elementary school all the way through high school or the quick drilled the trapped roles that we didn't. school elementary school middle school high school to think that our kids have to go up practicing active schroder drills is absolutely heartbreaking. and sadly, a reflection of where society is today. but the good news is to you at your question. we know things that can minimize the chances of things like this. happening again, smart, common sense gun safety measures like expanding background checks

that are required before people who may commit can acquire a firearm. we know when assault weapons ban was in place for the nation, it's insight this went down and this all weapons ban is still in place in california. now we're still learning details of what happened today in duval, the texas. but these are just some of the things that we can do to minimize the chances of tragedies like this happening. and i also want to be very, very clear the only reason we haven't been able to make further progress on gun safety in congress. it's because republicans refused to act. you have for my democratic colleagues all day long. we're ready to vote to put this in place. now we're ready to vote to keep our children safer. and it's influenced by the power of the nra and other elements of the gun lobby that simply refuse to let these millions go through. >> do you think that we should do anything about changing the age in which a person can

legally own a gun? should it go from being 21 to being it is 18 now should go to being 21 years old. >> i'm fully supportive of that. i know the state of california has tried to move in that direction again, republicans in the gun lobby are trying challenge those types of smart gun safety measures. respect the second amendment. but my god, we have to respect the lives and the futures of our children. first. >> do you think that there should be some sort of trigger lock or a fingerprint type of warning on a gun that would allow someone to be able to use it in a, you know, safe situation. >> so they get there so many a smart proven ideas on how improve gun safety from how we store them you safety measures on guns committed by

fingerprints or anything we can and need to do more. and the only reason we have been able to make more progress as a nation is because their republican colleagues refused to go against the gun lobby, go those who are just ok with extreme violence that has to and didn't pray that people across the country. keep this in mind what we've got vote in november. know who it is. it stands with you on gun safety and the safety of our children and who doesn't. >> last question for you here you have any idea what the president might be saying to the nation tonight, other than offering condolences and being that type of commander in chief. >> yeah, look, i looking forward to his remarks in just a little while. you know anything about to president biden, you know, his compassion, you know, his heart having suffered loss of different types in his life and so i you will absolutely

connect with the families. the parents all last the children today, sadly, but he's also i'm sure going reiterate the call for federal action. maybe this additional action that he can do in a state of lee. but the ultimate solutions require congress to act. and you know what else should be a wake-up call from my colleagues. inaction is a choice. any member of congress who refuses to act to improve gun safety and reduce violence in america is making a conscious choice to make our communities a less to think that people have to worry about their safety. when you go to the grocery store, we saw the buffalo just last week to think that you can feel safe going to grow from house of as you saw in southern california and elsewhere in that recent and yet another shooting that just a school elementary school, my

god, what is this nation wake up? >> i hope soon serve help soon. senator alex padilla, thank you so much for joining us here during kron. 4 news at 3 o'clock. we really appreciate your time. just a quick recap of the events that we've been watching for you this afternoon. 14 students and a teacher all killed today at their elementary school in a suburb outside of san antonio. it's horrific to be talking about this once again, but we really appreciate your time. i'm justine waldman. we'll have much more coverage for you tonight during kron. 4 news at 5, including covering the president's address live and then a few tonight in prime time.
