A pedestrian is dead following a collision with a vehicle Friday night in San Jose, police said.

Officers at 9:43 p.m. were at the collision scene in the 800 block of S. Jackson Avenue.

Both directions of S. Jackson Avenue were shut down between Bambi and Cinderella lanes.

A feud between two men left one dead Friday in Fairfield, police said.

A report was made to police at about 5:30 a.m. about a person who had been stabbed near Boynton and Beck avenues.

Police and firefighters went to that location and found a 41-year-old man who had been stabbed. He was taken to a hospital and underwent surgery but died, according to police.


Officers were able to identify a suspect after interviewing witnesses and speaking with the victim before he died.

At about 2:30 p.m. Friday, Jason Thomas, 34, of Fairfield, was arrested on suspicion of killing the other man, whose name is not being released yet.

A group of African American businessmen and investors announced Friday that they have made a $92.5 million bid to purchase the city of Oakland’s stake in the Coliseum site, with the goal of launching the first NFL team that is majority owned by African Americans.

The African American Sports and Entertainment Group is seeking to bring an NFL team back to Oakland after the now-Las Vegas Raiders moved to Nevada when the franchise could not secure a new stadium in the Bay Area.

The group also includes Oakland construction developer Alan Dones, former Oakland city manager Robert Bobb, former NBA player and sports agent Bill Duffy and Loop Capital, the largest African American-owned investment firm in the U.S.

The Coliseum site is currently co-owned by the city of Oakland and the Oakland Athletics, who on Monday finalized the $85 million purchase of Alameda County’s joint stake in the property.

The A’s are also in discussion with the city to buy its stake in the property. Plans to build a new ballpark at Howard Terminal go before the Oakland City Council next year.


Federal prosecutors said Friday a San Francisco man has been sentenced to 100 months in prison, after he was found guilty by a jury of stealing credit cards in order to pay for fancy vacations that included first-class flights and stays at luxury hotels.

Back in February 2018, a jury found 54-year-old Marcus Felder guilty of access device fraud and aggravated identity theft, prosecutors said.

Prosecutors alleged Felder engaged in credit fraud several times in San Francisco, Placer County and Hawaii, among other places, between April 2013 and October 2014.

As part of the fraud, Felder used Visa, MasterCard and American Express credit cards that were issued to others to get rooms at hotels like the Fairmont Hotel, the Hotel Nikko, the Hilton Union Square, the Grand Hyatt and the Hotel Metropolis in San Francisco, as well as the Four Seasons Resort in Maui. He also used the cards to pay for first-class flights between San Francisco and Maui and for rental cars.

Federal agents arrested him in October 2014 at the Thunder Valley Casino Resort in Placer County after he used a counterfeit credit card there, according to prosecutors.
