Kias and Hyundai's are being targeted because of how quickly some models can be stolen. Owners of all models of those cars are encouraged to use a steering wheel lock, even if you've have the software upgraded. Thieves don't know if you had and can break in, causing thousands of dollars in damage, got a large, even if they don't get away with your car. No matter what kind of car truck you have, car theft putting detectives an suggest air tag or some other kind of tracking device on your car that could help it be found faster, but try never to get it back yourself.

It might seem like a no -brainer, but police say now that it's getting colder in the morning this time of year, some people leave their cars running to warm them up in the morning. That's an open invitation to come outside and find your car missing. Coma Force Theron's on. Could be $18 the future toll for drivers and commuters on 405 in Bellevue? It's possible. Coma Force Paul Rivera reports. The Washington State Transportation Commission is discussing the idea of bringing up the price the on highway 167 tolls from Auburn to Renton and the I -405 tolls from Bellevue to toll and would their highest scenario could take it up to 18 bucks. Currently, the tolls run at most $9 to $10 and is dependent on traffic conditions. The commission claims there are multiple reasons for this increase, which includes managing traffic, closing a gap on funding, and to pay for over budget projects on I -405 and 167. How about they stop pulling money from all of us and just live within their means. King County Councilmember Reagan Dunn called the move a war on commuters and sent the Commission a letter in opposition to what the state is proposing. Sometimes the cost -benefit analysis over the lifecycle of program the doesn't make any sense. It's not right.

Holly menino takes a closer look at what they just sent to space and why it matters. A piece of Seattle's Alan institute is now in outer space. This morning, SpaceX's falcon 9 rocket carrying the dragon spacecraft with four axiom two crew members inside docked at the International Space Station on that flight, human induced stem cells produced by scientists at Seattle's Allen institute for cell science. This is the first time cells from the Allen institute have traveled to space. The axiom two crew members will spend 8 days at the ISS. The four astronauts will conduct scientific experiments that includes observing the effects of microgravity on cell growth and development. We asked, why does this research matter? The stem cells are capable of many amazing things that can differentiate into many different tissues. They can proliferate indefinitely without changing their fundamental character, but we don't know a lot about their ability to exist and perform all of those fascinating phenomena in space. So we will find out about that. The stem cell study is part of a series of NASA funded experiments led by researchers at cedars Sinai medical center in Los Angeles. This mission is also a first for many other reasons. This is the first commercial human spaceflight mission that includes both private astronauts and those representing a foreign government. There are two U.S. astronauts and two from Saudi Arabia. This is also the first private mission commanded by a woman. Holly

"Stevenson. And currently, it looks like the clouds are thickening up a little bit. It is cloudy and 47° in Seattle. A long time repeat offender now faces life in prison for his latest crimes, come over his linen win reports. It's been 7 years since cherry breed love nearly died. Still healing from physical and mental wounds and using photography to continue his healing process. Breedlove was beaten by an inmate in 2016, while working as a corrections officer at clallam bay corrections center. I just feel like I lost a very careful, very lost so much. I just don't remember. Breed love says others helped him fill in the blanks. Abd and jib Ibrahim, ambushed him, repeatedly hitting him over the head with a 6 pound metal stool pride from the floor before another inmate stopped the attack. It took four years to get through the worst of his recovery, but breed love still suffers from memory loss. I kind of come to and my leg was hurting. And my camera was broke. And I didn't know where I was. I don't know how it got there. But the case was dropped last April. According to reports from the department of social and health services, Ibrahim meets the diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia and didn't have the capacity to understand the case against him. He was supposed to be evaluated for civil commitment. But was discharged from western state hospital into DOC custody, despite an evaluation stating, he is at an elevated risk for reoffending and violent behavior. Ibrahim was released into community custody this past January, but a warrant was issued just three days later when he failed to report to his community custody officer. The worst thought to me was he's going to get out and he's going to hurt some poor, unsuspecting person. Just weeks later, Seattle police say that's Ibrahim pistol whipping a man in the head as he's stealing the victim's black Mercedes. Court records say the next day, surveillance video shows Ibrahim pulling up to a community center in that same stolen Mercedes, pointing a gun at a 70 year old woman and knocking her to the ground as he steals her purse. Days later, witnesses reported seeing Ibrahim walking a radically in traffic in burian and believed he had a gun, responding officers shot him as he sprinted towards them. Now he's in custody in King County, where prosecutors hope to get a conviction on new charges. We can't allow people who need mental health help to cycle back out on the streets. And that's a state of Washington issue. I just want to keep him off the streets now, really is kind of my focus. I just want him off the streets, not hurt nobody anymore. And we asked DSHS white Ibrahim was never evaluated to be civilly committed and they told us in a statement while we can not comment on specific cases due to patient confidentiality in general situations such as these without a new order from the court. We can not hold patients for longer than what has stated in their initial orders. Ibrahim is now facing charges for felony harassment as well as robbery related to those incidents that happen in Seattle and burian prosecutors also say that he is a third strike candidate, which means if he is convicted of three violent felonies, he will be locked up for life. In Seattle, Anne win. Seattle police are credited with cleaning up a major crime area in downtown, and como forest Paul Rivera reports businesses are starting to return. At the beginning of last year, it was labeled a crime hotspot by city leaders. Since then it has received a lot of attention. That includes police emphasis and security patrols. Customers are so happy that we're back. We hear it all throughout the day, so happy to see you. Kim foster, the district manager for Hiroshi perovski said they've noticed a difference.

We'll keep you posted as we get more information. And the search continues for the three climbers who died Sunday near leavenworth, they got caught in an avalanche on kolchak peak, komal force Paul Rivera spoke to a skier who may have avoided a similar faith. David pell, who lives in Portland, had been up there on Saturday a few miles from cold truck. They wanted to go out and hit Asgard pass, which is near cold truck Lake, they had camped close by, but then they saw the conditions and they decided not to go further. It was just really windy and a lot of snow was being moved overnight, our tent was just bad with snow. And we saw just build up. Officials said the climbers who were also out there in the area on Sunday, but were trying to climb cold truck peak. They slid about 500 feet after the lead climber triggered an avalanche. It was a group of 6, four of them fell three of them were told were confirmed by a fellow climber to have died because of the fall. That's according to the sheriff's office. Sheriff's official said the group did not have any sort of beacons on them or any devices that would transmit their locations, which emergency officials say if you're going out in that terrain, that is something that you need to make sure that you have. Paul Rivera. Testing for cannabis before you get a new job would be banned under most circumstances if a bill before the legislature becomes law, we get the details from como fours, mo Haider. Lawmakers who are sponsors of the bill feel it'll encourage more people to apply for jobs. Josh akana is a software engineer and a hiring manager for Roblox, a video game developer. He supports the bill. For pre job, I agree. I think that makes sense. There's no point in testing. I don't see marijuana as any worse or more dangerous than alcohol, which we don't test for. That's also because of his personal story of failing a drug test 20 years ago for a job. That it was horrible. Caused me to wait another year for that job. If it goes into law, employers can still test after a person gets the job. A part of the bill of some say needs to change. I think that it's required that you be sober for the job, but I think it's not necessarily. Now there are also R some exceptions to this, for example, if one job requires a federal background

Joel Moreno reports. Private security is seen as an effective but expensive deterrent to the steady stream of property crime confronting business owners in and around Seattle. Ricky McGee of Jaguar security Inc says there is so much work that it's a struggle to fill all the requests. Business is great. The problem is, like I said, you know, getting the people to come to work. Like the police, McGee is also short on qualified workers, so many of the security guards work overtime. We've gone into a situation now where we have to stop the crime. We try to be a help to the police. We try not to be the police. Security guards can provide that extra support that supplements the work assigned to police and can help understaff departments focus their resources on violent crimes.

Today, Oakley's foster mom, Jamie jox, testified in support of legislation that would require the department of children youth and families to more closely monitor families in their system and ensure children are not being harmed. If you can sit here and feel defensive in any manner for Washington, D.C., YF that I'm here to tell you, you do not have children's best interest in mind. This isn't a money principle. It's an ethics principle. My daughter's life should not be used for an agenda. My daughter is missing and D.C. why I played a part in failing to protect her. Alice and singer with D.C.

How the Warriors stack up against Jordan's Bulls
"Everybody in the free world. Watch the last dance the other night. It appears Draymond. Green did too and draymond green went on a podcast yesterday. uninterrupted W RT s after. Show party with Paul Rivera and Maverick Carter. No less And he likened their last season with Kevin Durant the warriors to what he had just watched on. Tv with the last season of the Bulls and he didn't hold back and he said one of the things from watching it. Was that what you saw? Is everybody kind of set it up like this is going to be the last year and so there was none of that elephant in the room hanging out there for their team That last warriors team with Durant and said that you know. Steve tried to deal with it but Kevin was asked about it every day. Dream on saying I want to be a warrior for Life Klay say and I want to be a warrior for life and then there was this elephant in the room the entire year and it was almost as if he watched the last dance and thought Jeez They handled that a lot. Better like hanging out there the whole year. Everybody knew that was going to be the end and so they just treated it that way the whole year. What you guys think. I mean ownership didn't handle it better. The player of the players may have the players may have handled it at worst. And Scottie Pippen you know getting the surgery when he did wanting out you know Jordan thinking was selfish but ownership on the warriors side of things. At least their goal is building with sustainability. They WANNA keep steph curry and Klay Thompson and continue winning. Reisen Dorf in Krause and the Bulls were ready to pull the plug after the first three championships. Trying to trade pippen for camp granted that still a win but then after it it's about China. Tear Down Arriba. I don't see that from the warriors now but it is fascinating. How much history has repeated in some ways with the disease of more and whatnot that manifested with Katie? Always being jealous of steph curry in the spotlight that he received and you look at what the Bulls went through in the nineties. I it is hard to see the parallels from the players side. We think I didn't see it. I just think Jerry mind was a I think he was a little narcissistic with it is totally different situation. Durant in that situation is basically the Rodman character. Rodman was on the Bulls for three years. Durant shows up for three years pushes him to another level but other I mean the bulls thing was so different Jordan and pippen were together for you know twelve years and there were Phil Jackson for. I don't know it was at least nine or whatever and everything was the same and they were just going going going and they had all these different ups and downs and that warriors thing you know they durant was on that team for blip was if you add up when when he actually showed up and then when he left. It's less than three years. It's like thirty months It's not a perfect comparable for for either team. But I do think you know the players you know seeking that attention. Wanting what's there's at I think with that aspect there's some similarities but overall though I mean I'm with you in the sense that ownership in front office objectives here are far different in what the Bulls wanted to do in the nineties with Crowson. Reisen Dorf is far different than what the warriors are trying to do with Myers and and warriors ownership. Now right I mean the differences with the warriors thing. It was one person undermining the whole thing. Durant yeah the Bulls thing it was. It was like a bad marriage with you. Know eight nine different people. All knowing like the marriage is ending and I think with the warriors they kept trying to pull durant back in that second season when he was there was when it started to fall apart in the third season. I still feel like they felt like it might be salvageable until they had that clippers game and then after that I think there are some similarities with the chemistry. Let's say let's say this. Let's say draymond. His way would have played out the way he wanted to write like. I don't buy for one second. If Kevin Durant started that season said this is my last year with the warriors it still would have been a problem like the right here the whole year by the way. He should have done that though. That's how he should have handled it and I think part of the problem is he didn't handle it that way. And you know the players and the team new organization. They knew he was leaving. They knew about all the New York stuff they thought it was gonna be the Knicks but they knew he was leaving. It was by especially by February march ever in the league new so I think from that standpoint underminded what's the elephant in the room. That draymond talking about that. You know what I'm saying if they all had this understanding Kevin. Ain't going to be with US after this year. Then why is he acting like it was a problem throughout the entire year? That Kevin was just saying Oh. I don't know we'll see we'll because I think Kevin probably agree with this. I think there was still hope that he might do a one eighty. You know I I think that. And honestly with the with the ninety eight balls and you're gonNA find out in the tenth part it came a lot closer to everybody coming back except for Rodman I I think they knew Rodman was done but I think once they actually won. I think there was a moment there where they were like Holy Shit. What are we doing? We gotTA defend this again.
