WE BEGIN WITH BREAKING NEWS. WE START WITH BREAKING NEWS OUT OF ELK GROVE, WHERE CREWS ARE FIGHTING A GRASS FIRE THAT’S THREATENING STRUCTURES IN THIS AREA. WE’LL SHOW YOU THIS LIVE PICTURE RIGHT NOW. OUR CREWS JUST ARRIVED TO THE SCENE NOT TOO LONG AGO. THIS IS HAPPENING ON BRADSHAW AND BADER SOUTH OF CALVINE ROAD. AGAIN IN ELK GROVE, CONSUMES FIRE CONFIRMING THIS IS THREATENING STRUCTURES RIGHT NOW. SACRAMENTO METRO FIRE IS ALSO ASSISTING. NOW WHAT WE’RE SEEING IS YOU SEE THAT DARK SMOKE AND A LOT OF DRY GRASS OUT THERE. OUR PHOTOGRAPHERS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET, THAT’S WHY YOU’RE SEEING CARS GO BACK AND FORTH. BUT WE SEE FIREFIGHTERS OUT THERE RIGHT NOW. WE CAN’T SEE ANY VISIBLE FLAMES. ACTUALLY, I CAN SEE IT NOW. THERE’S A FLAME RIGHT THERE IN THAT GRASSY FIELD, BUT WE CAN SEE A LOT OF DARK SMOKE RIGHT NOW. FIRE CREWS ARE OUT THERE WORKING TO CONTAIN THIS FIRE. WE’RE STILL WORKING TO LEARN HOW LARGE THIS FIRE IS RIGHT NOW. BUT AS THEY’RE ZOOMING IN. YEAH, WE CAN SEE THOSE FLAMES RIGHT THERE, BUT IT DOESN’T APPEAR TO BE A TON OF FLAMES FROM THIS ANGLE. BUT AGAIN, WE’RE ACROSS THE STREET ZOOMING IN. SO WE’RE WORKING TO GET MORE INFORMATION RIGHT NOW. YOU SEE THAT DARK SMOKE? IT’S MOVING SOMEWHAT SLOWLY. I TALKED TO OUR METEOROLOGIST A MOMENT AGO. WE WERE HAVING A CONVERSATION. SHE SAID THAT THE WIND TODAY IS LIGHT, SO THAT IS GOOD NEWS FOR FIREFIGHTERS AS ARE WORKING TO CONTAIN THIS FIRE. THAT MEANS THAT THERE WON’T BE ANY HEAVY WINDS TO FAN THOSE FLAMES. WE CAN SEE THAT HELICOPTER UP THERE AS WELL. I BELIEVE THAT IS SUPPORT FOR THEM. AND YOU KNOW, RIGHT NOW WE’RE STILL WORKING TO GET MORE INFORMATION AS WE LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS FIRE DOWN IN ELK GROVE. WE’LL GIVE YOU UPDATES BOTH HERE ON AIR AND ONLINE. BUT AGAIN, RIGHT NOW THIS IS WHAT WE’RE SEEING, A FIRE IN ELK GROVE IN THIS FIELD THAT FIRE CREWS HAVE CONFIRMED WITH US THAT IT IS RIGHT NOW THREATENING STRUCTURES. AND ACTUALLY, SINCE WE’VE BEEN LOOKING AT THIS, THE SMOKE APPEARS TO NOT BE AS DARK. SO MAYBE THAT’S A SIGN THAT THEY HAVE MADE MORE PROGRESS IN CONTAINING THIS FIRE. AND AS WE’RE PANNING, WE’RE ABLE TO SEE MORE. SO YEAH, THIS FIRE IS AFFECTING A LARGE CHUNK OF THIS GRASSY AREA. NOW WE’RE SEEING MORE OF IT. RIGHT. SO WE’RE SEEING JUST HOW AND ACTUALLY ANOTHER FLAME RIGHT THERE IN THE DISTANCE. SO YEAH, THIS FIRE IS NOT JUST SOME SPOT FIRE. IT’S CLEARLY AFFECTING A. STRETCH OF THIS AREA IN ELK GROVE RIGHT NOW. AND FIRE CREWS YOU SEE THERE IN FULL FORCE OUT THERE AS WE’VE BEEN PANNING BACK AND FORTH TO SEE JUST HOW WIDESPREAD THIS FIRE IS. SO WE’RE SEEING SOME AREAS WITH SOME LIGHTER SMOKE. BUT RIGHT THERE, THAT DARK SMOKE AGAIN, I DO WANT TO SAY AGAIN, YOU SEE THAT SMOKE ISN’T MOVING VERY FAST. I’M ASSUMING THAT’S BECAUSE OUR METEOROLOGIST TELLS US THE WINDS TODAY ARE LIGHT. SO THAT IS GREAT NEWS FOR FIREFIGHTERS AS THEY’RE WORKING TO CONTAIN THIS FIRE. AS WE GET MORE UPDATES ON THIS FIRE AT ELK GROVE, WE’LL GIVE YOU THOSE, OF COURSE, HERE ON AIR AND ON OUR WEBSITE, KCRA.COM. AND MAKE SURE YOU GET OUR MOBILE APP AS WELL. THOUSANDS TODAY GATHERING AT THE STATE CAPITOL FOR THE NO. KINGS RALLY. LIVECOPTER3 WAS OVER THE SCENE. YOU CAN SEE JUST HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE THERE TODAY. THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP’S MILITARY PARADE IN WASHINGTON, D.C. SO FAR, ALL OF THESE PROTESTS WE HAVE SEEN HAVE BEEN PEACEFUL. ALONG WITH THE GATHERING AT THE STATE CAPITOL. PROTESTERS ALSO TOOK TO THE STREETS OF DOWNTOWN SACRAMENTO. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS? THIS WAS ON THE TOWER BRIDGE PROTESTERS ENDING UP ON THE BRIDGE AS WELL, ALONG WITH SACRAMENTO. WE ALSO SAW DEMONSTRATIONS ACROSS THE REGION AND ROSEVILLE, FOLSOM AND ELK GROVE. WE ALSO SAW THESE PROTESTS ALL ACROSS OUR STATE OF CALIFORNIA. THIS IS A LOOK AT THE ONES WE SAW IN LOS ANGELES, SAN FRANCISCO, SAN JOSE, SAN DIEGO, LONG BEACH, AND IN SANTA MONICA. THESE PROTESTS ARE PROTESTING DONALD TRUMP’S POLICIES. PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP’S POLICIES. THEY’RE HAPPENING ACROSS THE COUNTRY RIGHT NOW. THESE ARE THE ONES WE SAW IN ATLANTA, MIAMI, GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA, PHILADELPHIA, INDIANAPOLIS AND OKLAHOMA CITY. WE ALSO SAW PROTESTS IN CHICAGO, BOSTON, DENVER AND IN DETROIT. THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING ACROSS THE COUNTRY. WELL, HEY, BACK HERE IN OUR REGION, YOU SAW WHAT HAPPENED HERE IN DOWNTOWN SACRAMENTO ONE AUBURN PROTEST JUST WRAPPED UP ABOUT A HALF HOUR AGO. WE WANT TO HEAD OVER TO KCRA 3’S PETE HADLEY, WHO JOINS US LIVE WITH WHAT WE SAW THERE. WE’VE SEEN THESE ALL ACROSS THE REGION. PEYTON, WHAT DID YOU SEE OUT THERE IN AUBURN? YEAH, WELL, AT ITS PEAK, THIS WAS HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HERE IN AUBURN, OUTSIDE OF THE PLACER COUNTY COURTHOUSE. A LOT OF PEOPLE ACTUALLY LINED THE STEPS TO THE COURTHOUSE HOLDING SIGNS AND CHANTING SOME OF THE MESSAGES THEY HAVE TODAY. YOU CAN SEE ONLY A FEW PEOPLE REMAIN. IT LOOKS LIKE MAYBE LESS THAN HALF A DOZEN. AS THIS PROTEST WRAPPED IN THE LAST 45 MINUTES OR SO, WE SPOKE TO SOME OF THE PEOPLE WHO SAID THEY’RE OUT HERE BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO MAKE THEIR VOICES HEARD. A LOT OF THEM SAID A BIG REASON FOR COMING OUT HAS BEEN THE RECENT IMMIGRATION RAIDS. I ACTUALLY TALKED TO A GROUP OF YOUNG WOMEN WHO SAID THAT THEY CAME OUT HERE ON BEHALF OF SOME OF THE PEOPLE IN THE IMMIGRANT COMMUNITY WHO HAVE FEAR TO PARTICIPATE IN THINGS LIKE THIS, BUT THEY WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR VOICES WERE HEARD AS WELL. SO WE DID SEE A LOT OF CARS. THIS IS A PRETTY BUSY INTERSECTION, DRIVING THROUGH AND HONKING IN SUPPORT OF THIS PROTEST TODAY. BUT SOME PROTESTERS TOLD US THEY DID SEE SOME COUNTER-PROTESTERS DRIVING BY WITH TRUMP FLAGS AS WELL. BUT THEY SAID THROUGHOUT ALL OF IT, IT REMAINED PEACEFUL. SO SOME GOOD NEWS THERE. LIVE IN AUBURN. PEYTON HADLEY KCRA THREE NEWS. PEYTON, WE’LL SEE YOU LATER TONIGHT. THANK YOU. WE CONTINUE OUR COVERAGE RIGHT NOW. KCRA 3’S ERIN HEFT BRINGS US INTO THE CROWDS THAT COVERED THE CALIFORNIA STATE CAPITOL. COUNTLESS SPACES AMONG THE GROWING CROWD RAISING THEIR VOICES, BRINGING THEIR MESSAGES TO THE WEST STEPS OF THE CALIFORNIA STATE CAPITOL. MY HOPE IS THAT WE HAVE TO SHOW THAT THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS OPPOSE WHAT TRUMP IS DOING, AND SUPPORT DUE PROCESS AND THE RULE OF LAW. THIS IS ONE OF APPROXIMATELY 2000 RALLIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES PROTESTING THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, COUNTERING THE PRESIDENT’S MILITARY PARADE AND CURRENT POLICIES. MANY SAID THEY DISAGREE WITH. MOSTLY, WE’RE FIGHTING IMMIGRATION POLICIES. WE’RE LETTING AMERICA KNOW WE WILL NOT STAND BY THIS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOR FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, SOMEONE THAT SHOULD BE REPRESENTING EVERYONE IN AMERICA. AND HE JUST DOESN’T. AND HE CHOOSES TO BE UNKIND. HE’S BREAKING THE LAWS. HE’S DEFYING THE CONSTITUTION. SO IT’S IMPORTANT. I MEAN, MY HUSBAND IS A VETERAN. MY KIDS ARE ALSO SERVING IN THE MILITARY. AND HIM DEPLOYING THE TROOPS OVER THE WEEKEND WAS REALLY OUTRAGEOUS. AS FAR AS I’M CONCERNED. THIS, AMONG OTHER LARGE GROUPINGS FRAMED UNDER THE SLOGAN NO KINGS, NO KINGS, NO KING, NO KING. I JUST WANT TO. PROTEST THE RECENT ACTIONS, ESPECIALLY WITH ICE AND LOS ANGELES AND THE NATIONAL GUARD, AND I JUST, YOU KNOW, I DON’T THINK IT’S RIGHT. IT’S JUST DEGRADING PEOPLE, DEGRADING THE NATION. AND I JUST DON’T I DON’T AGREE WITH ANY OF HIS POLICIES. WE’RE PAYING ATTENTION AND WE CARE ABOUT WHAT’S HAPPENING IN THIS COUNTRY. AND WE’RE NOT GOING TO JUST LAY DOWN AND TAKE IT. YOU KNOW? NO KINGS THE LARGE GROUP BREAKING OUT INTO CHANTS, ECHOING THEIR PLIGHT FOR CHANGE TO WHAT THEY’RE SEEING UNFOLD ACROSS THE NATION AT THE CALIFORNIA STATE CAPITOL. ERIN HEFT, KCRA THREE NEWS. MORE THAN 1000 PEOPLE SHOWED UP FOR THE NO. KINGS EVENT IN ROSEVILLE SATURDAY. PROTESTERS LINED BOTH SIDES OF THE GALLERIA BOULEVARD NEAR ROSEVILLE PARKWAY, LIVECOPTER3 FLEW OVER THE SCENE OF THE LOUD BUT PEACEFUL GATHERING. YOU CAN SEE IT IN THIS VIDEO RIGHT THERE. I FIND PEOPLE TO BE POLITE, RESPECTFUL, AND INCLUSIVE, AND THE OVERALL VIBE IS JUST WE’RE IN IT TOGETHER. AS SOON AS I WALKED OUT OF THE PARKING LOT, I SAW A VETERAN IN A WHEELCHAIR AND HE SAID, THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE. AND I GOT IMMEDIATELY GOT A LUMP IN MY THROAT. I WAS SO I THOUGHT, OH MY GOD, THIS IS SO INSPIRING. THE PROTESTERS WAVED AMERICAN FLAGS AND CARRIED SIGNS PROTESTING THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. THE ICE RAIDS HAPPENING NATIONWIDE IN THE MILITARY PARADE BEING HELD IN WASHINGTON, DC. WE’LL HAVE MORE ON THAT PARADE COMING UP LATER IN OUR NEWSCAST. LIVECOPTER3 ALSO OVER THE PROTEST IN FOLSOM TODAY, WE SAW PEOPLE HOLDING SIGNS AND MARCHING ALONG EAST BIDWELL STREET. THERE WAS ALSO A N
