along the peninsula though we are following this accident just reported on eastbound 380 on the ramp to southbound 101. another injury accident just reported there. ambulance again heading to the scene of this one. so it sounds like it may be blocking a lane of the ramp so avoid that connector right there if you are heading over towards the airport heading towards sfo, 101 is a much better option. at the bay bridge toll plaza still no metering lights. they will likely be turned on here shortly unless traffic is just so light on this friday that they don't see a need for them. right now

a gun. don knapp is at the hospital with what happened next. good morning, don. >> reporter: good morning, john. we are learning a little bit more about that situation this morning and the role the hospital staff as well as hospital security may have played along with the police when this man came into the hospital with a gun and took a clerk hostage. of course, he was arrested when the police did come. look now at the videotape and listen carefully as police place him under arrest. >> don't shoot me, man! >> reporter: you may be able to hear the man shouting, don't shoot me, don't shoot me, over and over. and he said, i gave up, i gave up. no shots were fired, no one was hurt. here's oakland police captain darren allison. >> reporter: officers responded and we directed this individual where they contacted him and the individuals surrendered fairly quickly and he was taken into custody. >> was he ever holding anybody? >> the information we had is at one point he had an individual at gunpoint but upon contact with the police officers, he surrendered. >> reporter: we know now that that person was a clerk in the emergency room section. we also understand that emergency room personnel had a role in talking this man down, calming him down and helping to disarm him. also, hospital security was involved. but, of course, when the police got there the man did put his gun down and surrendered. reportedly the man was saying that someone was trying to kill him. he was arrested and transported to another hospital. perhaps for psychiatric examination. a hospital span told us that the hospital staff behaved appropriately. they were very calm and they helped quiet the person down. and she said amazingly, many of the staff are still here continuing to work today. john? >> wow. all right, don, thank you very much. don knapp in oakland. 7 centers will keep providing preschool and child care in oakland even though they were to be shut down today. the problem, a familiar one plaguing school districts across california. it's at lack of state funding forcing many major budget cuts. but oakland unified reversed its decision yesterday after some parents threatened to lock themselves in at the centers to keep them running. >> you think we have found a way to reprioritize some one- time stimulus money. >> that money is expected to keep the centers open through august.

begun installing cameras on tiburon boulevard and paradise drive the only two roads into town. lenses will focus on the back license plates, not on drivers' faces. tiburon has a low crime rate, but police have picked up patterns in car theft and burglaries which they say are committed by outsiders. >> it's clear that they were occurring in a relatively tight time period at night. it did seem something that was solvable. >> i disapprove of it inherently. >> because? >> i just think, you know, it's one more intrusion. >> some civil rights advocates have expressed concern. there is no date for when the cameras will be activated. these are pictures from southern california. firefighting planes and croppers are back in the air this -- chopper are back in the air this morning trying to

hundreds of millions of dollars. good morning, matt. >> reporter: good morning to you. this is a software deal with oral and the government specifically the general service administration. and what the justice department is alleging in this lawsuit that's been brought against oracle is that the company failed to disclose and extend commercial discounts that were available to the government. since they weren't disclosed they were applied and as a result taxpayers were overcharged because of the contract. oracle hasn't made any comment thus far in this case. this case was originally brought by a whistle-blower at oracle, a guy who worked for the company itself notified the government about what was going on. and under the federal false claims act, that whistle-blower is eligible to receive 15 to 25% of the damages in this case. so he is looking at quite a reward if this goes through. oracle hasn't commented and all these are just allegations at this point. live in san jose, i'm matt bigler for cbs 5. >> so the claims are that oracle would normally offer a discount or something to other businesses but did not let the government know that it qualified for the same discounts? >> exactly right, john. these were discounts that were available commercially but the government didn't know about it under the terms of the contract oracle was required to disclose them to the government and since that didn't happen, they were overcharged. >> that whistle-blower could be in for some big bucks. >> reporter: big time. >> yeah. thank you matt bigler with kcbs radio in the silicon valley bureau. 6:40. coming up next, paying to drive in and out of san francisco during commute hours. >> it's a plan being considered to reduce congestion and pollution. political insider phil matier is coming up next with more on how that would work. ,, ,,,,,,,, our real national pastime? saving money. and like baseball people love their stats. i started bringing my lunch to work --

save including discounts of up to 40%, having that many customers shouldn't be a surprise. so ask a neighbor about state farm, then call an agent at 1-800-state-farm or go online. good morning. we

like pulp fiction, also good will hunting. disney wants to stand behind its pixar and marvel films instead. >> marvel isn't doing too badly. >> neither is pixar. >> just gold every time they put something out. >> did you notice the record earnings for chevron and the stocks are down today? >> we need to dig into that further. it might deal with some of their forecasting for the year ahead but based on their numbers their profit and revenue beat expectations pretty handily. >> are they gaining ground or profiting from bp's problems? >> based on what this quarter was, not so much the case. we'll see that later on. they are ramping up their fuel -- their oil production facilities things like that so we might see more of that going forward. not much of that built into these numbers from the past quarter. >> jason have a good weekend. >> you, too, jason brooks with kcbs and cbsmoneywatch.com. it is 6:50. san francisco has a new idea about how to make a little money. actually, charging people to drive around town. >> it's sold as a way to ease congestion and traffic and such in the city. here to ballpark about this is phil matier and the head of the san francisco county transportation authority. good morning, gentlemen. >> good morning. let's look at this plan. we have a graphic i think that sort of shows it. one idea is to charge people $3 coming up and down from the south during rush hour. the second plan is to charge $3 to go in and out. what's pretty much downtown san francisco. you get a half price if you live in the district. the third idea is to charge $6 for people leaving at night. whether you are going up to marin on down south to the peninsula or to the east bay, a buck off if you take a bridge on the way out and half price from you there. my question to you, are you serious??? >> i think that congestion is a serious threat in the future -- to the future of the city, to the viability of downtown, to our ability to continue developing this other market area the way people have said already in a number of ways they want to see it developed bringing families to south of market and so on. we need to think about how to deal with that well into the future. we don't need to implement it today and tomorrow but we have to think about it. >> but what about the idea that people just would stop coming into the city? you would have less people but a lot less money and less people to afford the houses you're talking about. >> i think the real issue is that people have and would have under this plan the ability to come into the city if they simply modify their behavior a little bit. >> we are not thinking of taking people out of their cars. flex your schedule so you can come in and enjoy the city. >> realistically, people have -- you have to be at work between 8 and 9. you can't be coming in at 10:00 and leaving at 8:00. most businesses don't operate that way. aren't you just trying to get some money? >> money is part of the equation. but i think that the main issue is how to best use the infrastructure we have. completely empty at 7 a.m., 7 a.m., even at 8 a.m. you can get around town very, very easily. most people bunch together in a couple of hours and that's a problem we can solve if we put our minds to it. >> i know this happens in other cities around the world. i mean, singapore has it had for many years, london. how is it working there? they do certain hours and is it helping? is it generating revenue? >> it's working fabulously. >> singapore is an excellent model and so has london. they have been able to create a balanced system. there are lots of people driving, but you don't have the excruciating congestion that you find even today on the bridge, on the access to the central market area. >> but they have good public transportation. >> you're also talking about an $1 1 commute. >> you would. but you realize that the people that are commuting every day into downtown -- i'm not talking about shoppers. the people that are working in downtown and commuting into downtown according to the statistics that we have half of those people get free parking from their employers. so if you were according to the cost of parking downtown most of those people don't have that impact. >> they didn't have to worry about it until now. who has the final say on this? where are we in this? is it actually going to happen? >> most likely the voters. this is the way in other cities. but what we want to do is have an intelligent conversation with the public before we get anywhere close. >> you pick an area in town where only a certain amount of people live but everybody works and mostly out-of-towners so the people in san francisco vote for it and the outer towners pay it. >> well no -- >> we have t go. >> tune in on sunday morning, we'll have more of him at 6:30 a.m. >> phil, jose luis, thank you very much. it is 6:54. we'll be right back. ,, my dentist says brushing alone isn't enough
