    Really need better picture.
    Just a guess -- if leaves are sharply toothed it might be Heteromeles.

    Not a plant I know well, but Ardisia comes to mind.

    Fruits look as though divided into compartments. As stated previously, closer view needed.

    Still not a plant I know, so hard for me to be sure, but does look like Ardisia crenata.
