For more than five years, retail stores in California have been required to give you cash back on your gift card if you ask and if the amount is less than $10.  But consumers and some stores are still confused by the law.

Gordon Siu knew the law was on his side when he had dinner at Boston Market and asked for the change left on his gift card.  But the store refused.

"The employee told me they don't give refunds and that their cash register isn't set up for it," said Siu. 

But Siu pointed out that he only had $6 left on the card and they were required to give him his money.  But the manager of the store told him it wouldn't be possible.

Siu took his complaint to corporate officials at Boston Market, and they did refund his money.  But how many stores five years after the law took effect understand how it works?

NBC 7 purchased five gift cards and tried to get money back at five locations: Boston Market, In-N-Out, Starbucks, Bath & Body Works and Ross. 

It went smoothly at three locations, but the person at the register at In-N-Out wasn't sure how the refund works and needed help from a manager to get the money.  However at Ross, NBC 7 was denied a refund by both the store clerk and manager.

NBC 7 contacted the corporate office for Ross received and this email response: "We continuously train our associates on issues like this to make sure all of our customers have a consistent and satisfying shopping experience at Ross.  We have addressed this issue at our Kearny Mesa store.  Thank you for bringing this to our attention."

Gordon Siu says people should insist that they get their money when they ask for it. 

"They are required to do it by law.  It is not optional." said Siu.

San Diego’s Meb Keflezighi – the runner who won the 2014 Boston Marathon last month – got quite the homecoming Saturday when locals gathered to celebrate his big victory with an outdoor party.

The “Walk with Meb” and welcome home shindig ran from 9:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. at San Diego High School’s Balboa Stadium and Track located at 1405 Park Blvd.

The walk with the winner began around 10 a.m. After that, San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer and Councilman David Alvarez will officially welcome Keflezighi back home to America’s Finest City.

The event is open to everyone.

Keflezighi won the Boston Marathon on April 21 with the second fastest time for an American man in the history of the event. He was also the first American to win the Boston Marathon since 1983.

At the same time, the athlete also set a personal record, crossing the finish line with one fist pumping in the air with a time of 2:08:37. That's 30 seconds faster than his previous personal best of 2:09:08 in Houston two years ago at the U.S. Olympic Trials.

“Coming as an American, to be able turn that left turn and to get that crowd going. I made sure to look up,” he said referring to the section of the course involved in last year's deadly bombing.

“This is beyond running. This is for the people. This is for Boston Strong,” he said at the finish line.

Born in Eritrea, 39-year-old Keflezighi and his family fled war to establish a new home in San Diego in 1987. He became a U.S. citizen in 1998.

The San Diego High School and UCLA alum has won four NCAA titles, the New York City marathon, and an Olympic silver medal in 2004.

After his NYC Marathon win in 2009, he talked with NBC 7 about growing up in San Diego and recalled the day his seventh grade teacher at Roosevelt Junior High gave him an offer he couldn’t refuse.

“He just said ‘You run hard, you do the best that you can, you’re going to get an A or B. You goof around, you mess around, and you’re going to get D or F. I just took off like a bolt,” Meb said.

When he won the 2009 New York City Marathon, Keflezighi became the first American to cross that finish line first in 27 years.

A flight instructor and his student, both visiting San Diego from France, went through some tense moments Friday afternoon when their small aircraft experienced landing gear issues, causing the plane to circle for hours before finally landing safely at Montgomery Field.

The pilot first made an emergency call into air traffic control around 3:40 p.m. to report the landing gear troubles as the fixed-wing, single-engine Cessna-177 was coming in to land at Montgomery Field.

By 4:45 p.m., the plane had not yet been able to land and had less than four hours’ worth of fuel left. After some fly-bys and an attempted landing, the pilot was finally able to set the plane down on the runway around 5:18 p.m.

With a few bumps, the Cessna came to a safe stop, and the duo inside hopped out as soon as they could.

Fire crews were on standby in case of an emergency and rushed to the men to check on their welfare. They were fine, just understandably shaken up by the situation.

Flight instructor Jean-Jacques Bellier said they had no trouble getting up in the air, but landing became a problem about an hour into their flight, as the landing gear got stuck.

Bellier and his student were forced to circle Montgomery Field while they tried to find a solution. At one point, they opened the door and used a crow bar to try to manually pull the gear, but had no success.

After burning hours of fuel, Bellier tried to land, knowing the equipment was not secure. Fortunately, with fire trucks ready on the tarmac, the aircraft finally landed and the gear stuck.

Bellier and student, Paul Hontang, emerged from the Cessna uninjured. The men said they managed to remain calm inside the plane despite the seriousness of the situation.

“You can check the tape [to see] if we were nervous. I don’t think we were too nervous. We were discussing what to do,” explained Bellier.

Hontang’s wife, Anne Hontang, said she wasn’t nervous either because she didn’t know what was going on at the time. She said she didn’t realize what happened until after the men landed.

For her the reality of the incident is now sinking in.

“I’m very happy my husband is alive. I’m very, very happy,” she told NBC 7.

The registered owner of the plane is the Armed Forces Aero Club.

David Piontek, president of the Armed Forces Aero Club, told NBC 7 that a former mechanic heard Bellier’s radio call and offered the men advice on how to get the landing gear to go down.

“The impact, when it first touched the ground, actually caused the gear to come up and lock into place,” said Piontek.

Bellier said he has more than 15,000 of flying experience as a pilot. Until Friday’s incident, he said he had never had a problem like this before.

As the pilot and the Hontangs left Montgomery Field, NBC 7 asked what they were doing next.

The group agreed, “We’re getting a drink.”

Three people were injured in a fiery rollover on Interstate 15 Saturday morning, and officials believe the crash may have been caused by a hit and run driver.

Emergency crews, including California Highway Patrol and Cal Fire, were called to the scene of the crash around 10:30 a.m. at I-15 and Old Highway 395. There, they discovered the wreckage of an SUV.

CHP Officer Scott Miller said the SUV over-corrected to avoid a couple of vehicles making lane changes. When doing so, the driver lost control of the car and drifted off the shoulder, plowing into a rock. The rock caused the car to roll over. It then caught on fire.

Miller said there were three people inside the car. One person was ejected from the vehicle.

All three occupants were transported to a local hospital with unspecified injuries.

Miller said investigators believe a hit and run vehicle "started the chain of events" that led to the crash. That suspect vehicle may have possibly been some type of black truck.

CHP officials issued a SigAlert immediately following the accident, shutting down two lanes along the freeway. Those lanes re-opened at around 11:45 a.m., once the scene was clear.

Miller said the car fire did spread a bit to some nearby brush, but firefighters quickly contained the blaze.

“The brush initially caught fire, but the fire trucks got here soon enough and got the water on the brush before we had any issues with that," said Miller.

The CHP officer said traffic accidents happen frequently in that area, as people tend to drive fast along that stretch.

San Diego couple Claire and Joel Ladrido were in a panic. They had just learned that Joel's sister and her husband were found dead from a gas leak in their home. The tragic news was on their Facebook page.

"He's on the phone with 911 on one cell phone and on my cell phone he was calling family from the Philippines, from Guam, from Hawaii," said Claire.

She drove while Joel made the calls. 

Joel worried that his parents would find out. So as they drove to his sister's house, he wondered how he could tell his relatives. When they arrived at the home, there were six police cars and a fire truck which were responding the Joel's 911 call.

But then Joel's phone began to ring and he was shocked.

"It was my sister," said Joel. "At that point I'm just, 'Are you OK? Where are you?'"

They were away at dinner. But while they were gone, someone had posted on Facebook that they were dead.

Joel had tried to call them when he first heard the news, but one phone went to voicemail and another never answered.

There was no response to his text messages. By the time he arrived at their home, Joel truly believed they were dead.

"I don't typically cry," said Joel. "But I just completely broke down.  It was hard to handle my emotions."

So where did the message come from?

A message that gave a time of death, a cause of death, even told family member to contact the Medical Examiner and make burial arrangements? Nobody knows.

It could be part of a cyber hoax on social media websites like Facebook. No matter the source of the fake status update, the grief is caused for the Ladridos was very real.

"Unfortunately there are people out there who get a kick out of stressing people out," said Claire.

 The Medical Board of California is taking action against five San Diego doctors accused of putting patients at risk.

The Board files hundreds of accusations every year against California doctors, but this week it released an unusually long list of doctors it says are unfit to practice medicine.

Among the two dozen physicians listed in the Board’s latest "license alert" are three San Diego-area doctors accused of abusing alcohol or using illegal drugs.

Another local physician is accused of having a sex with a patient, and Medical Board investigators allege that the fifth doctor committed gross negligence in her surgical treatment of a female patient at risk for cancer of her reproductive organs.

Plastic surgeon Jason Hess, who has an office in Hillcrest, could have his license revoked or suspended for alleged problems with alcohol.

The Medical Board’s accusation refers to a DUI citation Hess received last June at an East Village DUI check point.

Investigators also say Hess has two prior DUI arrests, one 2008 and the other in either 1997 or 1998.

"Substance abuse among physicians is a very, very serious problem,” said Julie Fellmeth, a professor of public interest law at the University of San Diego. “It poses a significant risk of harm to patients."

Pediatrician Bret Gerber, who is associated with Scripps Health, was placed on administrative leave last year by his employer after police caught him with ecstasy and other illegal drugs near the annual “Burning Man” festival.

The medical board now claims that Gerber recently "acknowledged... a history of recreational drug use" and admitted he could "get in a lot of trouble" for using illegal narcotics, even during his personal time.

• READ: Sexual Comments, Groping, Intimidation Alleged at Rock Church-Affiliated Recovery Group

Those comments and the “Burning Man” arrest have now prompted the Board to publically state that Gerber is unfit to practice medicine and should have his license revoked or suspended.

Dr. Samuel Gerson of La Jolla has been on probation since last year for alcohol and drug offenses.

But the board has now ordered him to close down his medical practice and stop seeing patients after he failed two alcohol tests and admitted he'd been drinking in March of this year.

"He was given a second chance by the Medical Board,” said Fellmeth. “And he blew that second chance, and now they're doing what they should do, which is move to revoke his license."

Fellmeth said the Medical Board did the right thing several years ago when it stopped allowing doctors to enter confidential drug and alcohol treatment programs without telling the public about the details of their alleged offenses.

“I'd rather see the medical board take public disciplinary action, which patients can learn of from the medical board's website," Fellmeth added.

Dr. Gerson's lawyer did not respond to our request for comment, and Dr. Hess's assistant, who said he would forward our request for information to the doctor, did not follow-up with any comment.

Dr. Gerber's office referred us to Scripps Health, which sent us the following statement:

“Scripps Coastal Medical Group considers patient safety our highest priority. Because of the ongoing legal matters involving Dr. Gerber, we are unable to provide additional information at this time.”

• READ: "Concerning Numbers" of Dogs Infected by Potentially Deadly Disease

A fourth San Diego doctor, who is a psychiatrist, is accused of sexual misconduct, a transgression that Fellmeth said is “the mortal sin for therapists.”

The Medical Board says Dr. Daniel Anderson, who has an office at the County of San Diego’s Psychiatric Hospital on Rosecrans Street, had a sex with a patient in his office, in their cars and in hotel rooms.

According to the six-page accusation filed April 22, that patient, identified as “V.C.”, claims she and Dr. Anderson smoked marijuana together and that Anderson sent her "very intimate email and pictures" of himself.

Fellmeth said the doctor/patient relationship must be strictly professional.

"It should not become social, it should not become business, and God forbid, it should not become sexual,” Fellmeth said.

When interviewed by an Medical Board investigator, Anderson denied he had sex with that patient and claimed he never sent her any nude photos.

He did not return NBC 7’s calls for comment.

Dr. Helen Chang, who has an office on Pomerado Road, is the fifth local doctor recently cited by the Medical Board.

Chang is accused of gross negligence in the surgical treatment of a female patient at risk for cancer.

Dr. Chang did not respond to our request for comment about that accusation.

San Diegans now have a new place to play – with a waterfront view, to boot.

The San Diego County Board of Supervisors, city leaders and residents celebrated the grand opening of the region’s largest and free Waterfront Park Saturday with a party to showcase the brand-new public outdoor space located at 1600 Pacific Highway and Harbor Drive, between Grape and Ash streets, in downtown San Diego’s picturesque Embarcadero area.

The family-friendly party runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and boasts various activities, live performances, a classic car show, a farmer’s market and a food truck pavilion. There will also be a beer garden and a “sports zone” with various activities.

Attendees are encouraged to park at Qualcomm Stadium in Mission Valley for free and then take the MTS Trolley to Embarcadero. Remember, trolley tickets cost $6 per adult, while kids 12 and under ride free.

• Pharmacist's Intuition Saved Man's Life

Commemorative Waterfront Park 1-day passes will be available at ticket booths at Qualcomm Stadium. The trolley will pick up riders every 15 minutes. MTS is also offering bus service to the event.

The Waterfront Park’s ceremony includes a welcome speech from Chairwoman Dianne Jacob, plus remarks from other local leaders including Mayor Kevin Faulconer and Supervisor Greg Cox. A ribbon cutting will signified the grand opening of the park.

The new outdoor space spans 12 acres, eight of which used to be parking lots north and south of the Administration Center.

The park boasts large, open grassy areas, a playground, shaded sitting areas, gardens and an expansive interactive fountain. Being in Embarcadero, the park also has an unforgettable waterfront view that can only be seen in San Diego.

 A one-acre brush fire has limited traffic on a major road running through Lakeside. 

The California Highway Patrol issued a Sig Alert for Wildcat Canyon Road just south of Featherstone Road as fire crews responded to the blaze just before 2 p.m. Saturday.

Traffic was shut down in both directions, but officials have since opened one lane. 

The fire was extinguished around 3 p.m., but officers were keeping lanes blocked until all the hot spots were mopped up, according to the CHP traffic incident page.

San Diego County is under a fire weather warning, which will be upgraded to a red flag warning on Sunday morning.

The owners behind two of San Diego’s most beloved pubs have plans to set up shop in Balboa Park soon, bringing craft brews to the cultural landmark.

According to “Eater National,” the owners of Blind Lady Ale House and Tiger! Tiger! have won a bid to take over the Sculpture Garden Court Café at 1450 El Prado near the San Diego Museum of Art.

The restaurateurs plan to open their third eatery in the space sometime this summer.

As of right now, the plan is to redesign the space, including giving the bar a makeover and adding new tables and seating. The name of the new eatery has not yet been determined.

Eater reports that café will serve lunch, as well as a weekend brunch similar to the current Sunday offering at Tiger! Tiger! The eatery will also offer picnic boxes so patrons can eat in the park.

Craft beer AND Balboa Park? It really doesn’t get more San Diego than that.

Murphy police are investigating a double homicide after two people were found shot to death inside a home on Saturday. Police believe a woman who committed suicide in Dallas hours after the killings was a former romantic partner of the male victim.

Police said they discovered the bodies of a man and woman inside a single-family home on the 100 block of Sherwood Drive while conducting a welfare check Saturday at 8:30 a.m.  

Late Saturday, Murphy police identified the victims: Jonathon Masin, 40, who lived at the home and Amy R. Picchioti, 38, who lived in Dallas. 

"Found in two separate parts of the home, they were partially clothed and barefooted," said a news release by the city of Murphy. Neighbors believe they heard gunshots around 6:30 a.m.

In a news conference Saturday afternoon the Murphy City Manager revealed that the person of interest, Michele Boyer, 45, was found dead of an apparent suicide in the 100 block of Leda in Dallas.

The exact motive of the double killing is not known.

"However, it has been confirmed that Boyer is the ex-girlfriend of Masin and it is the breakup that led to this murder-suicide," said the news release.

The person who requested the welfare check is the father of one of the victims.

Maj. Max Geron, with the Dallas Police Department, said Dallas detectives were conferring with Murphy detectives and more details would be released later.

A car fire in the parking lot of New Jersey's largest mall terrified shoppers who thought they'd heard gunshots, sparking a scare that brought a massive police presence to the scene and forcing an evacuation of the building.

Panicked shoppers, diners and moviegoers at the Garden State Plaza mall in Paramus, N.J. began running and calling 911 after hearing loud noises that sounded like gunfire, according to multiple law enforcement officials.

Police and federal agents swarmed the mall and evacuated the building. They found no evidence of a shooting, and after an investigation officials determined that evacuees knocked over two large metal display stanchions, creating loud noises, which may have sounded similar to gunshots.

The Garden State Plaza was the site of a shooting last November in which the mall was locked down as a 20-year-old gunman prowled the building, firing his gun into the air. He was later found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound; no one else was hurt.

The U.S. Coast Guard offloaded 1,327 pounds of cocaine worth an estimated wholesale value of $20 million Saturday in Miami Beach.

The drugs were discovered on April 21, when an aircrew aboard a Coast Guard Air Station in Miami spotted a go-fast vessel southwest of the Dominican Republic with suspicious packages on board. The Coast Guard Cutter Spencer sent an armed helicopter and boat crew to intercept the vessel.

Coast Guard crews found 25 packages on board that later tested positive for cocaine.

Two suspected smugglers were taken into custody and transferred to law enforcement officials in Miami.

On Friday, the Coast Guard offloaded $3 million in marijuana and cocaine at the base in Miami Beach. The estimated 2,100 pounds of marijuana and 35 kilograms of cocaine were seized in two operations earlier this month in the Caribbean Sea and near the Bahamas.

Last week, the Coast Guard offloaded $1.9 million of marijuana in Miami Beach. About $110 million in cocaine was offloaded in April.

 A series of recent hot air balloon mishaps – one which left three people dead in Virginia – has raised questions about the activity’s safety, especially as the Temecula Valley Balloon and Wine Festival takes to the skies at the end of the month.

In April, two hot air balloons made accidental landings in the North County.

The first happened in Rancho Peñasquitos when seven passengers and a pilot were blown off course and were forced to land in the middle of a neighborhood.

In the second incident in Rancho Bernardo, a six-year-old boy filmed a balloon landing in front of traffic on Bernardo Center Drive. Again, that balloon had been blown off course.

“When balloons land in unusual places, they tend to make the news because people are used to us landing in the same fields night after night after night,” said Phil Brandt, a member of the San Diego County Balloon Association. He was the pilot during the Rancho Bernardo unexpected landing.

But a sky-high ride turned deadly this week in Virginia.

The hot air balloon struck a live power line and caught fire, ending in an explosion that separated the balloon from the gondola. Three bodies have been recovered in the debris.

“[In] ballooning, we have to be very cognizant of power lines,” said Brandt. “However, here in San Diego County, most of our developments are newer. The areas that we fly generally don’t have power lines above the ground. They’re generally below ground.”

He said having a Virginia-like incident would be very unlikely in San Diego.

Safety is key, according to Brandt, and as an example, no balloons took to flight Saturday evening due to inclement weather.

 Fire crews rushed to put out a small brush fire in Oceanside Sunday after a red flag warning was issued for the county. 

The flames sparked around 11:45 a.m. just south of the intersection of Mission Avenue and Airport Road. It was on the south side of State Route 76. 

By 12:20 p.m., crews had a line around the fire, which reached about one acre.

Fire officials said they had a suspicious person nearby, though they did not say if that person was responsible for the blaze. 

The star of the TV show "Breaking Bad" is proving to be a class act after a video went viral when he got a teenager from Los Gatos a prom date.

Actor Bryan Cranston tried to get Stefan Montana a date--and he was successful.

Montana came up with the idea after seeing Cranston's Broadway show last month, and he asked the actor to help him get a date. Maddie Abene accepted Montana's invitation.

After the video became a hit, Cranston invited the teenage couple to see his show and hang out back stage.

"Like leaning over and whispering to each other just like 'I don't understand what's going on right now,'" Montana said.

"I've never been in a room with so many talented people at one moment in time," Abene said. "And it was really just overwhelming, and everybody was so nice to us, you know, all the cast members and Bryan especially. They were all so casual about it."

Cranston paid for the couple's flight to New York, hotel room, and even had a car waiting to pick them up from the airport.

 This Fourth of July, you won’t have to crowd around the San Diego Bay to watch the Big Bay Boom.

The 2014 Port of San Diego fireworks show will be broadcast live on TV to more 20 million viewers across Southern California and Baja California, Mexico.

More than 500,000 visitors are expected to whip out their lawn chairs along Shelter Island, Harbor Island, Embarcadero, Marina District, Seaport Village and Coronado Ferry Landing for some in-person viewing as well.

Many will be tuning their portable radios in to The Walrus 105.7 FM to hear the music to which the Independence Day spectacular is choreographed.

If you want to make it an even more memorable experience, you and the family can watch the fireworks from one of the special event locations: The Midway Aircraft Museum, Hornblower Yachts, Flagship Cruises, and the decks of the Berkeley and Star of India museums.

The July 4th show is slated to go off at 9 p.m. with a bang -- though hopefully not too big of one. 

All will be watching with bated breath to see if there will be a repeat of the 2012 “Big Bay Bust” when every firework went off at once in a giant explosion.

The 15th Annual Port of San Diego Big Bay Boom benefits the Armed Services YMCA. More than $50,000 was donated to the organization last year. 

According to a study from Point Loma Nazarene University, the annual fireworks show has a $10.6 million economic benefit to the local economy. Boat rental and charters see six times the amount of business, and nearby businesses see a 30 percent boost in sales, the study says. 

Shoppers, rejoice! A brand-new H&M location is making its way to San Diego, specifically to a large, new store at The Outlets at the Border in San Ysidro.

As part of its continuing California expansion, the trendy fashion retailer plans to open a 26,000-square-foot location at outlet center near the U.S.-Mexico border this fall.

The Outlets at the Border, currently under construction, will open to the public in October, offering 140,000-square-feet of retail space for shoppers to peruse.

For its part, the new H&M store will offer clothing for the entire family, including women, men, girls, boys and younger kids ages newborn to eight. The location will also boast a separate “store within a store” housing a vast selection of accessories, lingerie, sports apparel and H&M’s plus-size line.

Currently, H&M has 311 locations across the U.S. The first store opened on New York’s Fifth Avenue 14 years ago.

In San Diego, the only other location is in Fashion Valley Mall on Friars Road. The retailer is known for its affordable prices and chic, fashion-forward apparel.
 

 Apparently, it's good to be a safety on the San Diego State football team.

Two Aztec safeties were picked up Saturday in the third and final day of the 2014 NFL Draft.

Nat Berhe, a strong safety, was drafted by the New York Giants in the fifth round – the 152nd pick overall.

In the next round, the Seattle Seahawks used the 208th pick overall to snag free safety Eric Pinkins.

Standing 5-foot-10 and weighing 193 pounds, Berhe was the first San Diego State defensive back since 1999 to earn All-Mountain West honors three years in a row, according to the Associated Press.

The team captain led SDSU in total tackles in 2012 and 2013, logging 99 tackles and six pass breakups in the last season.

As for Pinkins, the 6-foot-3, 220 pound player had a solid two-year tackle production while with the Aztecs and gave an exceptional pro-day performance, his NFL draft profile says.

Pinkins said the Seahawks have talked with him about playing at corner.

 Family and friends of a San Carlos hit-and-run victim took to the streets Saturday in their search for answers.

The Jackson family spent the day handing out fliers, looking for anyone who may have seen or heard anything the day Jack Jackson died.

Jack, 52, was found lying in the driveway of his home in the 8000 block of Beaver Lake Drive on April 24.

He was seriously injured and unconscious, and he died in a hospital later that day from brain trauma that police believe was caused by a hit-and-run driver.

So far, neighbors have said they did not hear a crash or squealing breaks.

“We want to ask our community here if they seen anything, heard anything, know of anyone that’s car may be smashed or just to ask the driver to please come forward,” said Jack’s ex-wife Celeste Montalvo-Jackson.

Those who knew Jack canvassed a nearby park with fliers, stapling them to poles and handing them to passers-by.

On the signs, they asked anyone with information to contact the San Diego Police Department at 858-495-7800.

“What is going on here?” asked family friend Julie Jones. “When did hitting someone and leaving them to die become a thing? Because in my mind, to hit a human being and leave the scene, I don’t know how you could live with yourself knowing that you had done that.”

The group told NBC 7 their goal is to find closure and some peace.

“That person who did this to my son – I already said it before – I forgive him, and I hope he can forgive himself, but come forward; come forward,” said Jack’s mother, Rosalina Jackson.

The family plans to hold a memorial for Jack on May 24.
