SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- BART ridership numbers for Tuesday were the second-highest since before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the agency confirmed to KRON4. Ridership yesterday was reported to be 189,716, second only to the Golden State Warriors victory parade in June of last year.Ridership Tuesday was largely driven by a fan-organized "reverse boycott" to protest the Oakland Athletics' proposed move to Vegas at the Oakland Coliseum and a K-pop concert at the adjacent Oakland Arena. BART recorded 12,699 exits at Coliseum Station, amounting to 7% of Tuesday's ridership.

Authorities in Maryland have released video footage from body cameras and police cruiser dashcams showing the moments leading up to a fatal pursuit on Interstate 270 in Rockville last month.The videos — which total more than 19 minutes — were released by the Maryland Office of the Attorney General’s Independent Investigations Division on Tuesday.Police say Lawrence White, 37, was behind the wheel of a black Infiniti that was stopped in the middle of the road on Rockledge Drive in North Bethesda about 5 a.m. on May 20, triggering a call to police about an unresponsive driver.The videos show officers approaching the car — with its brake lights still illuminated — shining flashlights into the driver’s side window.One officer says, “Gun, gun, gun,” telling the other officers she saw the butt of a gun in the driver’s lap.From the video, it’s unclear whether the driver ever roused.Several minutes later, more officers have surrounded the car, and a serg...Stock market today: Wall Street swings to mixed close as Fed hints of rate hikes to come

NEW YORK (AP) — Wall Street swung to a mixed finish after the Federal Reserve hinted it may raise interest rates two more times this year, even as it held them steady Wednesday.The S&P 500 finished the day 0.1% higher after pinballing between gains and losses following the Fed’s announcement. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 232 points, or 0.7%, while the Nasdaq composite rose 0.4%.The Fed closed its latest policy meeting by saying it would keep rates where they are, to give more time to see how its fusillade of hikes over the last 15 months is affecting the economy. It’s attempting the excruciating balancing act of slowing the economy just enough through rate increases to snuff out high inflation, but not so much as to break the job market and create a recession.Standing pat would give the economy more time to absorb all the past rate hikes, and Fed Chair Jerome Powell said “ideally by taking a little more time, we won’t go well past the level where we need to go....Sarah Huckabee Sanders travels to Europe for 1st overseas trade mission as Arkansas governor

DOVER, Del. (AP) — The state Supreme Court is mulling whether the University of Delaware was justified in denying requests from Judicial Watch and the Daily Caller News Foundation for records related to the school’s receipt of President Joe Biden’s senatorial papers.The justices heard arguments for the second time Wednesday in a long-running legal battle over the records, which have been the subject of multiple FOIA requests. That battle is playing out amid increased scrutiny of the handling of government documents by elected officials, including this week’s indictment of former President Donald Trump for allegedly mishandling and retaining classified documents at his Florida estate.Meanwhile, the discovery of documents with classified markings at Biden’s Delaware home and at his former Washington office is the subject of an investigation by a special counsel. The FBI searched the University of Delaware earlier this year for classified documents as part of its investigation into the...Renuncia maestra que fue baleada por estudiante en Virginia, según funcionarios

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A jury in Oregon says the electric utility PacifiCorp must pay punitive damages for causing devastating wildfires in 2020 — on top of an earlier verdict already expected to amount to billions of dollars.The decision Wednesday came two days after the jurors found PacifiCorp liable for the fires and said it must pay for damage to property as well as emotional distress. The jury awarded $73 million to 17 homeowners named as plaintiffs in the case, with damages for a broader class involving the owners of nearly 2,500 other properties to be determined later.PacifiCorp, owned by billionaire Warren Buffett’s Omaha, Nebraska-based investment conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway, said it would appeal the liability verdict and damages.The Multnomah County Circuit Court jury in Portland found Wednesday that PacifiCorp’s negligence warranted additional damages to punish the utility’s alleged indifference to the safety of others and to deter such conduct in the future.

DENVER (KDVR) -- Colorado homes are approaching the record prices set last spring, but if the normal sales patterns hold they won't likely pass them. The Colorado Association of Realtors released its May report for both the Denver metro and statewide housing market data. After banner years of home sales brought on by the global COVID pandemic, Colorado homes sold more quickly and for more money than they ever have in the early years of the 2020s. They dropped nearly $100,000 from last spring to this January but have been rising $10,000-15,000 each month ever since. Brothers killed in I-25 road rage shooting, family says The median sales price for a Colorado single-family home was $575,000 in May 2023, the highest the state's home prices have been since last July.Prices would need to rise another $25,000 to match the record set last April, but that's unlikely if buyers act as they did in years before the pandemic began.
