right now on Cairo seven news.
The father of a high school student in Auburn is coming forward with video of
his son attacked in a school bathroom. Auburn police took another student to
juvenile detention for the incident. Good evening. I'm Aaron right and I'm
Monique Ming Lawvin. Karen seven's Graham Johnson is live at Auburn High
School right now and Graham, we saw this video earlier in the newsroom. We
really should warn people this is pretty tough to watch. It absolutely is.
It happened here last Friday, Monique, the victim's dad called 911 and later
emailed us
every time I see the video, I just get mad. This seven second video shows
Jerome Lovalli's 14 year old son beaten up in a bathroom at Auburn High
School. The beating went on further than the video. He was completely set up.
Auburn police tell us a dispute over a girl led to the incident, which
included other students blocking the door to the restroom so the victim
couldn't leave and someone taking this video. The kid that attacked him was he
thought was a friend. You've seen the video. He has his hands in his pockets.
He had no idea what was about to happen. Police say the primary assailant and
the victim are both students at West Auburn High School, where the video was
quickly sent around, including to the victim. The students were at Auburn
High School to change buses. Our kids should be safe going to school. Lovalli
says he called 911 after arriving at the school. Auburn police say officers
took the primary assailant to juvenile detention on charges that include
robbery because the victims air pods were stolen. Lovalli says his son
suffered a concussion and more threats. I can't send him back to school like
this.
The Auburn School district says the school resource officer and
administrators are investigating and that the involved students will face
appropriate discipline. District officials wrote to us that safety is
their highest priority. Live in Auburn, Graham Johnson, Cairo seven news. All
right, Graham, thank you. We'll continue to follow this story and you can get
this report and new developments in the Cairo seven app turning live now to
Seattle. You know, we've got a fair amount of sun. It looks like a
beautiful spring day out there, but lately it hasn't really felt like
spring. Yeah, it's just been, you know, hit or miss where you are when you're
there. Morgan Palmer here with as we're trying to figure this thing out. Yes,
up in the mountains. This is the day it paralyzed up at 5400 ft on Mount
Rainier, some snow even this afternoon. A few snowflakes trying to come down
there. They were, but still we're getting temperatures to get into the
mid to upper fifties. Okay, later on this week we'll have some days in the
lower fifties. Eventually down the road, we're going to get warmer
temperatures, but it's going to be another week before we really start to
see a lot more days in the sixties. The pinpoint storm tracker out there
tonight with a band of rain with occasional heavier downpours, even with
a little bit of small hail around fall city incarnation just to the southeast
of well just to the southeast of Clearview and Maltby, possibly a little
bit of small hail there, not too far away from bridal trails and then across
northern parts of Kitsap County around Silverdale toward Paul's Bone Banger.
Also some areas of rain with a little small hail possible, and we've seen
some pockets of that in Pierce County as well around Bonnie Lake. Those have
fizzled out, and that's some good news because we did have a little hail
across Pierce County a bit ago. You can track this on the Cairo seven
pinpoint weather wrap and also any lightning strikes that happen near your
location. You'll get an alert if you have those enabled, but I don't expect
too much in the way of that into the day tomorrow. I'm tracking the rain
chances coming up. Morgan, thank you. West Seattle neighborhood is working
on a petition for changes to what they're calling a dangerous intersection.
It's an area where just days ago a man lost his life. He was hit and killed on
California Avenue southwest near southwest Finley. Police say he's not
the first person to be struck there. Cairo seven's Deborah Horn is live in
West Seattle. Deborah, this deadly accident has people in that neighborhood
struggling right now.
Aaron, that's because they said that they feared something like this would
happen. This is the intersection they're talking about. They say it
needs to be something different. Friday night, their worst fear came true. A
man dashed across California Avenue southwest. He wasn't in the crosswalk
and he was struck. Now they say they want something done before something
like that happens again.
Even in the light of day, we watched as people dashed across California
Avenue southwest, making it to the other side just in time. But neighbors
say they have witnessed those who didn't make it. It's not the first time
no one stops here. Um, late at night, people are hitting like 60 miles per
hour. Jamie DeWalt says she and her neighbors are starting a petition to
get the city of Seattle to take action. I would specifically like to touch on
getting a light here, getting a speed bump, getting something. This isn't the
first time a woman got hit and thankfully survived not too long ago. A
man was not as lucky Friday night. He was struck and killed as he and two
companions ran across the middle of California Avenue southwest. The first
911 call about the accident came in at 10.01 PM. But moments later, it's
hopefully now is shooting the color. Her to side in the crash in the female
yellow. She's been shot all around. Everyone was screaming. Everyone was
like, what's taking so long? Where are they? Where they were was a few blocks
away waiting for Seattle police. In a statement, a spokeswoman for Seattle
Fire says when there is a report of shots fired, their protocol is to wait
for police to clear the scene. It took forever. Neighbor Charlie Austin says he
ran over to the man seconds after he was struck. But he says he understands
why the medics waited. But yet we needed him to get here like right away,
like immediately.
In fact, it took 15 long minutes for Seattle Fire medics to arrive. Now,
residents tell us they are signing, getting signatures for a petition
because they want to see change. They say that is the only way to prevent
another tragedy from happening here. Reporting live in West Seattle,
Deborah Horn, Carol Seven News appears County burglary suspect is killed in a
fire that deputies say he set himself. The fire in University Place also
destroyed a horse trailer. This happened at a home on Orchard Street West
around 7 40 last night. The homeowner told police the suspect tried to push
his way into their home, then ran off into the woods. A little while later,
appears County Sheriff's deputies spotted the man breaking into the horse
trailer while waiting for backup. The deputies saw smoke coming from that
trailer, but the man refused to come out. Puyallup canine and I was just
like, what the heck? Look over crap ton of smoke coming up. It's definitely
concerning because this is a fairly safe, quiet neighborhood and we just
thought that it was a fire that started. Didn't really know the why West Pierce
firefighters put out that fire. Deputies say the man was found dead inside the
trailer. Now the Pierce County medical examiner is trying to figure out who
that man was over the weekend. A soldier stationed at Joint Base Louis
McCord was killed in a car crash. JBLM has not identified the soldier,
according to the News Tribune. Graham Fire and Rescue crews responded to a
report of a car hitting a utility pole around 4 30 p.m. It happened on Rice
Candle Road near Rice Candle Road East near Elk Plain. So far, there are no
further details on how the accident happened. New at six Seattle public
schools will pay a student a $3 million settlement after she was sexually
abused by a former girls soccer coach at Ballard High School. In the lawsuit,
this student says they were abused by Megan Miller starting in 2016 when she
was a sophomore. It was a weekly occurrence until 2018 when the abuse
was uncovered. The coach was eventually convicted of child molestation and
sexual misconduct of a minor, and she is now a registered sex offender. Turning
now to the pandemic, Children under five could get their first covid 19
vaccine sooner than expected. The FDA says it's considering bumping up its
authorizations target date to late june. A spokesperson says the process is
taking longer because there are more steps involved, including a unique
trial period for the multiple variants circulating going in depth. The CDC
says only about 35% of Children aged 5 to 11 have gotten vaccinated in
Washington state. That number is 36% 32% in that age group are fully
vaccinated for kids 12 to 15 59% have gotten their first dose and 54% are
fully vaccinated. And for ages 16 and 17 67% have started their
vaccinations with 62% fully vaccinated. Well, starting this fall, a new
waterfront tourist and family attraction will be built here in Seattle
right next to the great wheel and next to miners landing. It's a brand new
pier with enough space for a big big playground, outdoor movies and even
concerts. I'm Gary Horkert, the Kyra seven live desk. Now remember when
the old Pier 58 collapsed a couple years ago because it was so dilapidated way
back when that pier was known as waterfront park. Well, the new Pier 58
will replace that old one in that same location. The city of Seattle announced
today a 34.5 million dollar project for a new pier, which will include a
marine habitat sensitive design, a shaded tree grove and a lawn. And it
will also include an iconic sea life playground for kids and families. It'll
take about two years to build that new pier. Now this contract also includes
the removal of that old Pier 63. That pier has been closed for five years.
It's also very dilapidated and we're told that space will improve the
marine ecosystem because more sunlight will grow more plants there and attract
more fish at the Kyra seven live desk tonight. I'm Gary Horkert. Burglary's
are becoming a bigger problem. We're digging into the ways you can keep
yourself and your family safe and the common mistakes that might be making
you a target. A bizarre building goes up in flames and Cairo seven catches it on
camera. What we're learning about this unusual fine. Hi Aaron and Monique.
We've got a lot of news to cover tonight after Cairo seven news at six.
America's fentanyl crisis. We take a look at the high stakes battle on the
southern border to prevent pills laced with the deadly drug from getting into
the hands of teens. Plus the nationwide shortage of baby formula is getting
worse. Our update tonight and our series the modern mom how one woman is
mentoring kids without a mother. That's all tonight here on the CBS evening
news.
Police say the pandemic changed how burglars are breaking into homes. They
aren't just breaking in during the day while you're at work. They're hitting at
night to tomorrow at 6 45. We're breaking down some important steps to
take when installing security cameras and easy lighting changes that could
help deter burglars and the cool and wet weather will continue. We have more
showers in the mix and I'm still keeping an eye on the weekend. Any chance for
some drier weather. It's not looking that likely. We'll give you details all
morning long tomorrow on Cairo seven news in the morning. Stanley steamer

A massive fire at a strange building caught by Chopper seven Snohomish
regional fire says it looks like a silo, but it's actually a house. It's
not clear if anyone was using it. They think it was abandoned, but they do
know it's a total loss. The steep, muddy area made it difficult to get
to the fire, so they're letting it burn. Thankfully, because of that mud,
there's little concern that this fire will spread. A recent Seattle police
survey found people's top concerns last year were theft, burglary and
break ins all tied in with homelessness, and it's easy to understand the
concern. Look here, there was a burglary every 13 minutes statewide in 2020.
That's according to the Washington Association of Sheriff's and police
chiefs. So we're digging into the best ways to keep your home safe.
There's lots of cheap, easy ways to do this. Jennifer Danner is SPD's crime
prevention coordinator for the Southwest precinct. She says for outside
lighting use bulbs that are a bright white color, not the orange kind that
allows your neighbors to accurately see people who might be trying to break in
their hair color, their clothing, their vehicle color as well. And take a look
at the greenery around your home. Don't block the windows. If you have trees,
trim the canopy so it ends above the windows and with your shrubs and bushes
below the windows and add one more security measure to every point of
entry.
Exterior doors or doors that go from inside our home to outside our home
should always have a deadbolt at least one that bolt. So some doors. This
includes a door between your garage into your home. That door is often
forgotten and she advises people to upgrade their strike plates. That's the
metal piece. The deadbolt goes into when you've locked the door. Danner
recommends putting in four inch long screws to really secure it to your door
frame for sliding windows. Use a metal or wood rod, a dowel to prevent a
burglar from sliding it open. You can also buy something called a track lock.
She says those can be around just 3-5 dollars each. Now, a big item people
usually think of for home security of course is cameras. But Danner says they're
not as helpful as you might think, especially if you're not taking
additional steps once you've installed them. We'll have more on that and other
technology to protect your home tomorrow. It was six after a decades old body
was found in receding Lake Mead. Authorities in Las Vegas have found
more human remains. Two sisters were paddle boarding on the Colorado River
Reservoir when they spotted bones Saturday. Investigators are not treating
the case as a homicide. The discovery comes after a body in a barrel was found
May 1st. In that case, police say the man may have been shot. A new investigation
finds dozens of dams in Washington state are high hazard and in need of serious
repairs. The dams were categorized based on what would happen if they failed. High
hazard means there would likely be at least one death. And 50 dams in
Washington were listed as needing immediate action. Yakima County had the
most in poor condition at seven. We've got an update to the breaking news. We
told you about it. Five. The jail official who helped an Alabama inmate
escape has died. 56 year old corrections officer Vicky White reportedly shot
herself as marshals moved in. She was just pronounced dead at the hospital.
The former jail officer and the inmate have also been accused of having a
romantic relationship for about two years. Investigators say they've been
planning for the planning this escape for months. We'll continue to track this
story and bring you updates as they come in. We told you Friday that after six
weeks of work, the magic moment in the north cascades finally happened. Crews
from the east and the west sides met, marking the complete clearing of S. R.
20. Now crews are putting the finishing touches on the roadway and they plan on
opening it all up tomorrow. They say it took longer than usual because of the
cooler spring weather. And that's really something we've all felt no matter
where you are. Goodness, this weekend brought a little bit of something
between the chill, the clouds, the sun. I haven't put away any of my heavy
jackets. Seriously, every dog out there is like shivering because it's been so
chilly, especially in the overnight early morning hours, temperatures in the
daytime and nighttime. Well about where we ought to be for this time of year.
This is a live look at the summit of snow quality. Tonight we have looks like
a few snowflakes, a few flurries at least coming down there. I want to give
you an update on the snowpack in the mountains. The snowpack numbers. Here
we are 144% of normal 100 is normal on this snowpack water map. So we're
running above average on snowpack throughout all of our mountain ranges
and it's going to even be melting away so slow so slowly. That is good news
for our water supplies for the upcoming season and for the fire season as well.
53 degrees and ever 56 degrees and ever today 54 in fork. So temperature is
quite a bit cooler than we ought to be. We ought to have a lot of sixties on
that map. A few showers around tomorrow, some more sun one on the pinpoint
storm tracker scale, just a minor impacts to travel. That's what that
indicates across Kitsap County. A little bit of rain still around Bremerton back
just to the north of C. Beck toward Paul's bow. Also in parts of King and
Snohomish counties. A few showers around from Maltby and Clearview down to the
east of Bothell and Woodinville and then around Lakes of Amish. Some rain
continuing. Here's the Kitsap County view with the rain also continuing to
come down. Undoubtedly, we've had some ponding water on roads, areas around
Silverdale and back toward the naval base there at Bangor and then also
across parts of Pierce County. Some rain coming down this evening. A lot of
areas have received as much rain as we normally get in an entire month of May
in just the first nine days. Tomorrow we'll have a few more showers, morning
temperatures, upper thirties, lower forties highs tomorrow, upper fifties,
very, very similar to today. A few showers will bubble up in the afternoon,
but that we could have an isolated area of rain early in the day. But
afternoon, a few showers will start on Wednesday. We have a better chance of
rain late in the day as a weather system comes on in. So that's going to
be a little bit of a change on the coolest day this week is going to be
Thursday, only 53 in Seattle with morning rain turning to showers over
the weekend. More rain comes back Saturday, tapering and finally back in
the sixties by Sunday. I Morgan, thank you. If you've ever been told, you know
just how frustrating and expensive it can be really expensive. But now we're
learning some cars may be targeted even though they're legally parked. Gary
Hawker is working on that story for Kyra seven news at seven. Thanks
Monique. Thanks Aaron. And this is a hassle. No driver ever wants to deal
with right. Finding out your car has been towed away and now a new report

rights. If you find out your car has been unfairly towed, stay with us.

Well, the New York Times is changing a word old clue that it says got too
close to politics. Fetus was today's answer for some people in the game,
which gives you six chances to guess a five letter word. The game makers say
the word was loaded long before the leaked Supreme Court draft suggested
Roe v. Wade and some abortion laws could be overturned. The New York
Times says it wants to keep the game distinct from news to Seattle

It was very confused about what happened to the cookie monster. The new
