A strange sight of events unfolding on the grounds of Oakland International airport and this morning investigators are trying to find out more about the suspect in this. Police say it started yesterday when an Alameda County sheriffs deputy tried to pull over a driver. The driver took off onto an airport access road and rammed a security gate at more than 50 miles an hour. Shortly after driving onto the tarmac, the man then ran toward the water. Crews spent hours scouring the area, but they believe he may have drowned. Deputies are still looking to determine a motive. Theres always just a Mental Health factor, was this just one person acting out, and i think we need to learn who this person is before we can even begin to make a determination. Not seeing necessarily a nexus to domestic terror or International Terror at this point. It really appears to be some type of lone individual acting very bizarrely. There was very little impact at the airport on this busy travel weekend and no one else was hurt. San jose police are looking for three men they say ran from the scene of a street racing crash, this happened saturday night near feel . And rosenbaum avenues.

In some cities and counties, this kind of thing happens frequently. So now, theyre using cameras mounted on buses to catch the drivers in the act. Experts say thats paying off. What these cameras are doing is letting people know there is an additional presence out there to let them know theyre doing wrong.
