Watch out for that lady in the delivery room! A pregnant woman in San Mateo county, enraged at her baby daddy's constant exhortations to prenatal nutrition, stabbed him in the stomach with a serrated knife. The DA says she's had plenty of criminal cases with a pregnant victim, but never one with a pregnant perp.
People in SF are wondering if a browned-out fire station on Market and Sanchez might have been able to save some of the people who died in the fire on Capp Street were it not for the budget cuts. Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White notes that the other fire stations responded within 2-4 minutes of the call and that the people who died had died immediately, but other firefighters are calling for a repeal of the brownouts policy.
And glug, glug, glug -- a boat sank off the dock of the Mare Island Naval Shipyard in Vallejo, leaving only an oil slick where the 30 x 80 foot barge used to be. The barge probably sank because it was constantly being banged around by its neighbor, the so-called "Artship," which had previously been moored in Oakland as an art gallery. The Artship's current caretakers have taken responsibility for the barge's sinking, and will take the appropriate steps to clean up any pollution caused.
