First, today's weather: Clear throughout the day. High: 95 Low: 58. Here are the top stories today in Sacramento: The Sacramento History Museum on the waterfront in Old Sacramento lost some of its history on Saturday. In the early morning hours, thieves broke in and stole some gold artifacts that the museum had on display in one of its cases. The Sacramento History Museum's galleries explore the city's history from the Gold Rush era onward. Sacramento police are asking anyone with information to contact them. (KCRA3) The Fly Brave Foundation, a non-profit that helps people on the autism spectrum, is opening its first in-person facility dedicated to these individuals. The owner has a son on the spectrum and she is committed to helping people with autism live a life of purpose and find their passion. There will be spaces to share and sell their creations as well as classes in everything from job interview skills to finances. (CBS Sacramento) 60 volunteers in Sacramento are taking part in a trial of the Pfizer booster shots. Of the 225 volunteers who underwent the first Pfizer trials at UC Davis Health, 60 were chosen for the booster trials. 30 will get the booster and 30 will get a placebo.

Arviel Robertson is suspected of gunning down another woman on the evening of July 2 on the 400 block of 16th Street in Sacramento. Police in Nacogdoches, Texas have made the arrest and Robertson is expected to be extradited to Sacramento to stand trial. (CBS Sacramento) One of the men accused of trying to blow up the Sacramento Democratic Headquarters will remain in jail, a judge has ruled. Jarrod Copeland, of Sacramento, was denied release in part due to a jailhouse recording with his wife that gave the judge pause. Originally, the judge was inclined to release Copeland to his wife's custody, but the recordings prompted the judge to change his mind saying, in part "no custodian or surety would have the moral suasion to ensure the necessary compliance with any conditions imposed."
