    The Alameda County Fair is staying open through Sunday amid triple-digit heat and taking precautions to help protect the 4-H and FFA animals.

    Crews began cleaning up the fish shortly after they were discovered Wednesday.

    The city is trying to raise the water level to help protect the surviving fish.
