The Senate Judiciary committee grilled the attorney general about several ongoing investigations. Attorney general Jeff Sessions was questioned about the president s firing of fbi director james comey. The probe into russias meddling in the 2016 election and more. Lauren blanchard reports. Reporter Jeff Sessions is on the job as the nations top Law Enforcement officer for eight months but today is the first time he was called to testify before the Senate Judiciary committee. Under these circumstances today, i will not be able to discuss the content reporter attorney general Jeff Sessions citing executive privilege telling the Senate Judiciary committee he will not discuss his private conversations with President Trump. Despite sessions refusal to answer questions on the president s firing of fbi director james comey, the nations top Law Enforcement officer did go on to criticize comey saying the investigation into Hillary Clintons emails was closed before being fully investigated. I dont think its been fully understood the significance of the error that mr. Comey made on the clinton matter. Reporter yet much of the hearing was then focused on russia. This year sessions had recused himself from the russia case due to his role on the president s campaign. But senator franken accused him of changing his story over time as to whether the attorney general had been in contact with the kremlin. First it was i did not have communications with russians. Which was not true. Then it was, i never met with anyone russians to discuss any political campaign. Let me just say this without hesitation that i conducted no improper discussions with russians at any time. Reporter sessions told senators that to date he hasnt been interviewed by the special counsel robert mueller. But he did say he would be willing for an interview if asked.

More stories of heroism in the north bay after the wake of the deadly fines. A doctor used a motorcycle to save babies from the north bay fires. We are tracking that rainfall thats most certainly headed into the north bay fire zones. Great help to firefighters. Well let you know when it gets here how much we could see and what the weekend is going to look like. As firefighters get a handle on the north bay fires, several efforts are under way to assist fire victims as they try to recover from their losses. Many people have been unable to work and the u. S. Government will offer those people unemployment benefits. The california insurance commissioner says he is asking Insurance Companies to speed up the process for fire victims claims. I have issued an order and notice to the insurers asking them to expedite claims handling. That includes things like providing a fourmonth advance for whats called additional living expense coverage. Thats the coverage to cover your lodging, transportation, food costs. Just how many people will need the help is unknown. Cal fire says 213,000 acres burned. And 5700 structures were destroyed in the fires. The process of filing insurance claims and rebuilding is just beginning. The Findley Community Center in santa rosa is among the many places where Insurance Companies have set up mobile response teams. We talked with State Farm Insurance agent Miguel Alfaro who was among thousands of people evacuated from santa rosa in the path of the fires. He and his family camped out in his petaluma Insurance Office for a week. He says during that time, he took many calls from worried customers. For me to be 100 for them there, i the first thing i needed to make sure my family was safe. So as long as they were close to me and here in a safer place, i knew i we were able to deal with anything else. The state insurance commissioner told ktvu as you just heard he is asking insurers to cut red tape to get financial help to customers for their immediate needs as soon as possible. A santa rosa doctor was one of many people doing gods work the night the fires broke out. As ktvus Tara Moriarty reports, dr. Scott witt embarked on a Dangerous Mission to save newborns from the deadly tubbs fire. Reporter the rescues have been heroic. Dr. Scott witt director of sutter regional hospitals neonatal icu never thought he would be pulling off a rescue to save babies. I got a call at 2 a. M. Basically, saying that there was some fire encroaching on the hospital so we might have to evacuate. Reporter dr. Witt told his family to leave their Fountain Grove home as flames lapped at the edges of the hospital. I left in my truck but couldnt get very far because the freeway at that time already had flames going across it. Reporter so the 45year old did what any unassuming physician in charge of evacuating eight preemies might do. He switched his truck for his bmw. Motorcycle, that is. In california, you can split lanes so i just went down the middle of the lanes and got past everybody. Reporter for four miles, he weaved through traffic, rode on the shoulder and slid through gravel. You can see just how close the fire got to the hospital so when dr. Witt finally arrived, he and his medical staff loaded the babies know loaded the babies into ambulances to be transported to a hospital six miles away. It took three hours for several trips. Incredible. Amazing. Makes me proud. You know, they are worried about their own family and yet they stayed here. Reporter dr. Witts mission wasnt over. He then rode to santa rosa memorial tailing an ambulance closely. There were downed pure lines that were live that we had to roll over. Reporter he said he felt the babies needed him. If my baby was in the hospital, i mean, im a little biased but i would totally want them to be in some hands like scotts. Reporter the familys home is destroyed but they have each other and things are back to normal at the hospital, where dr. Witt is now being called the james dean of neonatal. Thats not really my personality. Its just more of you got to get done what has to be done. Reporter in santa rosa, Tara Moriarty, ktvu fox 2 news. Got some weather to talk about here. Rain is back in the forecast. Thats good news. You notice the air quality is better today, too. Air quality will be improving over the next few days as we set up with an advantageous weather pattern compared to last week. Theres the rain up north now. This whole area slides south as we go into your bay area tomorrow night. So this is mostly about increasing clouds tomorrow and then showers in the fire zones by tomorrow evening and then a little bit into friday morning, as well. Just kind of click through here and not a lot of rain but rain you know a ten of an inch of rain will do wonders for the atlas fire up around the nuns fire, as well. Thats all helpful. Into tomorrow, highs will be about where they were today. Maybe a little cooler with increasing clouds throughout the day and so heres the system. Kind of a robust looking system and it actually is kind of interesting down here because you have subtropical moisture that could get tugged into this thing and drug through which would be an added bonus but this whole timing this all phases together this system in our area. It phases together somewhere around tomorrow afternoon late and then rain by midnight in most of the north bay but 10 00 in the north bay. So as we go through time, i can show you that well, i can show you outside live we have good air quality finally. Look at that. Isnt that beautiful . Twin peaks lacking out, marine layer at the coast helping scour out the atmosphere, also cooling things off along with this. This is a mechanism for the fog, the clouds and the upcoming rain and thats also the reason things for firefighters to get easier. Its a complete reversal of where we were last week. You have big High Pressure last week. Bigelow pressure this week. Firefighters get a handle on the fires. So heres the model. Heres tomorrow morning. Its not a bad looking system. 8 00 tomorrow morning, so santa rosa, healdsburg, firefighters are getting a good handle on the fires and then it moves into the central bay around midnight into san jose. Well have about 11 tomorrow night and into san jose and scattered instability showers friday morning and then friday should clear up pretty quick. So there are the forecast highs. Again, just theres such a Tipping Point where all of a sudden, you know, 5 1 2 months no rain and boom, boom, boom, fires and we had a couple of bad days of bad weather and boom, just the fires they just start coming. It hits a tipple point. We hit that Tipping Point in this rain. Doesnt kill fire season but it will help a lot. Thats good news. Thank you.

Mark is here now with sports. Were on draymond watch waiting for results of an mri after he was injured last night during the game. The big picture last nights loss is going to be a blip on radar but there is concern today i think a lot of warriors fans kind of on pins and needs because they saw how the team reacts when Draymond Green isnt in there. Against houston last night, this is the play he was hurt on. It looked innocuous at that point. He lumped off but we have seen draymond do that before. As a matter of fact owe stayed in the game and hit free throws but didnt return for the 4th quarter. He was scheduled to have an mri this afternoon. No results yet. Obviously he didnt practice today. But steve kerr did say it is a meeting with the media today that he did not think it was serious but like i say warriors fans holding their breath until they know for sure because that guy it was obvious last night, he is the guts of the team and they lost against houston last night. Meanwhile a couple of people in the newsroom say today, if this is the yankees and dodgers in the world series, im boycotting the thing. But its looking like thats what well get. Houston is still in it. But man, Justin Verlander is going to be needed in the next game to keep them alive because his Houston Astros go down in this one. Second inning, two out, clutch hit by the big lefthanded first baseman greg bird of the yankees off dallas keikel and its a 10 lead. As it turned out, that was enough but to add on, aaron judge just continues to spank the ball in the last month or so of this season. Thats an rbi double. Brett gardner with a dive from first base scoring, yankees have another pad. They are 20 best shot for the astros down a couple of runs in the fifth two on, two out, Masahiro Tanaka will get the former Oakland A Josh redick on strikes. He is pumped as is all of yankee stadium. He went 7 innings gave up three hits and eight strikeouts. No runs. And just to add to it,deep and gone and the yankees take a 3 2 lead in the series going back to texas with this thing in command. Its a sevengame series. Meanwhile, if you can believe this, we were so looking forward to football season, with the way the giants and as were playing, well so far, 49ers 06, raiders 24. A combined 210. Not going to get it done and, in fact, we are going to know a lot about the rest of the raiders season tomorrow night. Kansas city comes to town. Of course, the chiefs and alex smith lost their first game last sunday but they come in after the raiders laid an egg against the lowly los angeles chargers. And the jack del rio as all coaches have to be, jack del rio is ever optimistic. You recognize just how close it is what a fine line it is in this league. And you fight to get on the right side of that line. Thats where we are. But we believe we are we have a lot of strong men in this locker room and well keep battling and looking to better through the year. We need a big win and then we need to start stacking them. All right. Stack em up starting thursday night. Tomorrow. With the chiefs in town and alex smith. Meanwhile, the 49ers are about as good a looking 06 team as you can get. If thats possible at all. They have an awesome 06. Number 3 seed jay beat hard will take on the Dallas Cowboys at levi on sunday, the first start for beathard in the nfl. He comported himself well in the second half in particular against the redskins this past sunday. And the guy he looked up with on a regular basis is hawkeye, fellow hawkeye out of iowa tight end george kittle. He loves football almost anything more than life. He was a leader. Like i said, he is cool, calm, confidence how he carries himself all the time. A really easy guy for people to look up to. All right. Yeah. Hawkeye rookies. They know each other, know the timing. The moves. Best 016 ever. Ever. Good night. [ laughter ] oh, hey, we ran into your mom at benihana last night. Uh, yeah, she loves that place. Every time they flip a shrimp in the air, she practically leaps out of her seat to catch it. Thats why i dont take her to seaworld. I know youyou dont want to hear it, but she was there with stuart. Thats fine. I dont care. It doesnt bug you when they go out on dates . Theyre not dating. Theyre just two friends who went out to dinner. And then went back to the home they share where they probably fell asleep in the matching pajamas she got them because they both just love penguins. Hey, lots of people wear matching pajamas who arent dating. Like who . Like you and your dog. Dont rule out the dating. Fine, it bothers me. You happy . You think youve got problems.
