The Santa Cruz Puma college helped with release and has been tracking this 2yearold male Mountain Lion for the past couple of weeks. They reported him as 46m, which is his tag number, tell us he is, quote, a dispersal male, which in people speak means hes a young cat who has broken away from his mother in search of food and territory, basically trying to find his own place in the world, but in that endeavor, sometimes ends up venturing into an urban environment. People first spotted him around 6 00 last night in Mountain View. Then in the parking lot garage of a nearby apartment complex, where he hid for several hours beneath a car while Police Officers surrounded him with their guns and rifles drawn. Fortunately, they were never needed. Late last night, fish and wildlife was able to tranq the big cat and release him back into the wild just before midnight. The department of wildlife saying this was the textbook example of how to rescue a Mountain Lion. Bob redell, live in the bay area. Thank you, bob. We dont know exactly where he was released, but he did see a lot of great stuff on social media. In fact, the hashtag, mv p. U. M. A. Got very, very funny. There were some terrific tweets. Julie vazquez tweeted, the mvpuma is hiding in a garage. Are you sure hes not just starting a startup . And if youd all updwraded to mavericks, you wouldnt be having Mountain Lion issues. And wondering when the mvpuma tshirts will hit the street. I looked on twitter to see if there was an mv puma account. There has been for years. Its some guy in india. Nothing to do with our Mountain View pumas. It was fun to see all of those and we love to share those as well. For more images of the captured puma, head to our website, nbcbayarea. Com. Thats where we have a slide show of the whole event, start to finish. That includes the Mountain Lion after he was captured. You see him there, hes doing okay, just a little sedated. A little sleepy.

Thats where a fire alarm went off in terminal b in the administration building. Everyone there was forced out.

Evacuated passengers have now being rescreened however at tsa checkpoints, so theyll be able to catch their flights. San jose Police Investigating what they believe to be a deadly case of road rage. Two cars collided yesterday morning near tully. Police say after the incident, one of the drivers got out, started an argument. A passenger in the other car pulled out a gun and shot the man. He died at the hospital. Police still looking for the shooter. Police in San Francisco looking for suspects after a speeding car crashed into an apartment building. It started late last night near bay street. Officers saw what they thought was somebody stealing that car. The officers followed the suspect. He eventually started speeding, driving all over the road. The car hit a person and another car in the area of franklin and chestnut, but kept on going. Police right on its tail, and then it crashes into this building in the aquatic park area. The people inside jumped out and ran away. The pedestrian who was hit is expected to be okay. Friends and family are remembering a teenager killed in a car crash in san jose. I hope shes doing well there. I cant explain how, like, heartbroken i am. Almost 300 people held a vigil at the spot where 18yearold Lorena Marquez died over the weekend. She was a senior at santa clara high school, just one month away from graduating, when the car she was riding in slammed into a traffic pole at a signal in san jose on friday. The 17yearold boy who was driving the car suffered critical injuries, but his condition is said to be improving. Police dont think that drug or alcohol played a role, but he was speeding at the time and may have run a red light. This before colliding with another car and then slamming into that pole. The man who police say shot and killed his neighbor in San Francisco, this was over the weekend, hes out of jail this morning. Police say 26yearold steven gillamaro was shot in his neighbors apartment. The San Francisco state student went to the wrong floor looking for his own apartment well after midnight after a night of celebrating. He ended up inside the wrong apartment. Not clear if he broke into that apartment or was allowed in, but one way or the other, he ended up shot to death. Police arrested the 68yearold man inside that apartment for the shooting, but the District Attorney did not file charges. Thats a decision the vips family says is a mistake. Why let the man that shot my brother be free while there are other my family is living in that building, while my neighbors are living in that building, who have kids. And its not safe. The District Attorneys office says that it is still investigating, but under california law, you certainly can defend yourself in your own home if you feel threatened. And new at 11 00, it is not a matter of if, but when, of course, california is preparing for the next big earthquake. And right now, state leaders are trying to figure out a way to alert everyone before it strikes. Nbc bay areas Christie Smith is live this morning in vallejo. So christie, how exactly do they plan on doing this . Reporter good morning to you. Were talking about a system that could offer maybe a 60second warning to you, that an earthquake is coming. It doesnt sound like a whole lot, but it could be enough time to make a potentially lifesaving decision for yourself and for your family. And maybe Automated Systems could go ahead and shut off gas and assembly lines. And today what theyre doing here in vallejo is talking about the 80 million thats needed, the initial estimate for the earthquake Early Warning system here in california. Seismologists and geologists are here that would be key partners in making the system work. This comes as we will mark the 25th anniversary of the loma prieta quake coming up soon. Senator alex padilla is behind sb135 which was signed by governor brown. The office of Emergency Services had until 2016 to get all that funding in place. Private partnerships are certainly key to this, but already places like japan and mexico have similar Warning Systems in place. Most recently in mexico city, residents had 71 seconds of warning before a big quake hit. The idea, though, is to have more senators and notifications here in california. Theres a small enough series of sensors throughout the state of california to know that the technology works. But we dont have enough sensors in enough places in california to provide a reliable, realtime warning for the general public. And thats what this project seeks to do. Reporter now, california does have restrictions on using general fund money, but, again, private funding is going to be key here to also maintain the sensors that would be in place. But theyre confident that that funding will happen. They say they hope to see this system up and running within the next two years. Reporting live in vallejo, Christie Smith, nbc bay area news. That would definitely be some added reassurance. Christie, thank you. Investigators in hawaii are revealing new information about the death of a ziplining instructor from the bay area.

The twitter account has been taken down and although School Principal kathy scott didnt talk on camera, in this email to parents, she said, i do not believe this is intended to be harmful, but this is not behavior that is consistent with our schools outstanding reputation.
