OAKLAND — Twenty years after the crime that landed her in prison on a life sentence, an East Bay woman has been freed from incarceration through a court motion filed by the Alameda County District Attorney’s office, court records show.Ava McDonald, 53, was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison for the murder of Oakland resident Stacy Alexander, who was shot and killed by McDonald’s romantic partner in 2003.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (KRON) -- Two San Jose men who allegedly caused an explosive fire at a public storage facility with illegal fireworks were identified on Friday. The June 14 inferno at Public Storage on Blossom Hill Road in San Jose exploded and spread so rapidly that witnesses said the blaze looked like something out of a "Call Of Duty" video game. Witnesses reported hearing "popping" sounds emanating from the three-alarm fire. San Jose Police Department Sgt. Jorge Garibay wrote, "The fire was a result of multiple illegal fireworks igniting in a storage unit. The large amount of fireworks stored in the unit caused the entire building to catch fire resulting in everything stored inside to be completely lost and unsalvageable."Investigators discovered that someone had stockpiled nearly 40,000 pounds of illegal fireworks ahead of the July 4 holiday. San Jose Fire Department arson investigators and SJPD police detectives identified two suspects: Anthony Dasilva, 45, of San Jose, a...
