Here are the top stories today in Sacramento: A video shows an elderly woman being accosted, robbed and pushed to the ground outside of People Market on Stockton Blvd on Friday. The 73-year-old is recovering from her injuries at home. The woman's children are sharing the surveillance video in hopes someone may recognize the person behind the crime. The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office has a detective assigned to the case.

Mikuni is closing all of its nine Sacramento locations on Mondays due to a staffing shortage. Management has been trying to staff up, but have had limited success. A job fair that Mikuni hosted a couple of months ago resulted in only three applicants. Owner Chef Taro Arai says he'd like to add 20 to 30 more people per location. He's offering 401(k) benefits, higher wages, worker referral bonuses and even gift cards as incentives. He remains hopeful that he will be able to reopen on Mondays soon.
