Transcripts For KTVU KTVU Mornings On 2 At 6am 20161005

Yesterday, we started other off cloudy for most everybody. We had some mostly sunny partly cloudy skies. See how that is clipping. Eureka, arcada. Crescent city. One more system has to move through. And then High Pressure can kind of build in. It is slowly doing it now. 40s and 50s on the temperatures. About five or the ten degrees cooler ifer some here compared to yesterday. 42 degrees. 46 in petaluma. 50s for others. Upper 40s. But once we get cranked up here, everything stays to the north and temperatures begin to warm up. 60s and 70s. Slightly below average. 6 01, sal. Yes, sir. And . Its not bad. We dont see anything major. We do see slow traffic to be sure. It is not going to be a light commute, be but we havent had any major meltdowns out there just yet. This is a look at the bay bridge. And you can see traffic here is going to be backed up a little bit. This is about a 20minute delay. 20 minutes before you make it on to the span. No major problems getting on to the bridge. We are also looking at interstate 880. Right now it is not too bad. The east bay commute is very slow. We talk about that frequently. No problems. 680. Look at this. It is already getting slow as you drive out of pleasantton heading to the grade area. 880 is not bad. Southbound is beginning to slow at 2 million. San mateo is off to a decent start. 6 02. Lets go back to the desk. The Vice President ial nominees mike pence and tim cain debated in virginia. It was their one and only debate. The political analysts and campaigns are giving opinions and reaction to this morning. We want to check in there along with university and virginia. Good morning, carry line. And good morning. Neither of these candidates had any major gas last night, but they sure had a lot to say. And you are donald trump supremacist. Let me talk about this. Senator, i think i am still on my time. Suspect this a discussion. Democratic senator tim cain not wasting any time. Interrupting republican rival governor mike pence a noticeable number of times throughout the 90minute debate. And kaine was interrupting, overmod lated, too hot coming in. Couldnt quite settle down. Reporter kaine tried to question pence on Donald Trumps tax return. Why wont he release his tax returns . His tax returns show he went through a very difficult time, but he used the tax code just the way it is supposed to be used. Reporter governor pence fired back again and again. So ten senator, this insult driven campaign. That is small to day toes compared to Hillary Clinton called half of donald Trump Supporters a basket of deplorables. Reporter however, some democrats say pence was dodging questions. What was most noticeable was mike pence was not engaging. Meantime, republicans are calling pence the clear winner. I imagine the clinton team will also be saying these Vice President ial debates never matter now, do they. Reporter next up, donald trump and Hillary Clinton will battle it out sunday night in st. Louis in their second president ial debate. Pam and dave, back to you. What are people saying, just people who watched it. How did they feel about . Did it sway their opinions into who they are voterring for for president at all. The small group of undecided. A straight leg raising interesting focus group. His people broke for pence. They didnt like kaine. When kaine would talk, the numbers would go down. They didnt like his style. By our count, there were 39 interruptions. There are some there were some people who went for kaine, but very few. Most people like pences tone. He was able to have areasuring tone after trumps you unmien uneven debate last week. So pence was definitely the winner on that undecided focus group, but it is similar ever still too early to know will it sway people . Sunday will be important because it is the top of the ticket again. Thank you, caroline. To further break down the debate and who came out on top, we have our political analyst back in the studio with us. Clearly, it seems like most people are sort of declaring pence the winner. Yesterday, you were talking about its not going to necessarily help in a positive way for either candidate, but it can certainly help negatively. Do you think kaines performance last night was negative for Hillary Clinton . Maybe for the first third of the debate. Let me clarify a couple of things and sort of self disclose. I was a high school debater and a college debater. We did debate and my brother was a state champion, by the way. I coached for 15 yores in college. These things that we are calling debates are not debates. A real debate, the judges and the critics take notes. They track the arguments. They look to see who is more persuasive about the correctness of their position and they interact with each other. What we watch on television that we call president ial debasements are essentially doing press conferences where the same candidates get both questions and occasionally they get to go at each other. Mostly these things are exercises in performance in trying to do a got you moment with someone, trying to trap them as a question they can use as a moment to embarrass them like Hillary Clinton be very evictive effectively by baiting on the Miss Universe contestant. And they are watched for that. So to call somebody the winner or the loser in a debate sense is not accurate. These are performances. And on that basis, i would say, now to answer your question, mr. Kaine, was, i thought, a little overzealous at the beginning. He was reminiscent for me of al gore in the 2000 election with the i know the answer, i know the answer. Small smartest kid in class that always knows the answer and you really want to beat him up up and take his lunch money at the school break. The moderator trying to assert her position as a moderator or the control her discussion persuaded him to stop interrupting. And by that point, after that point, he settled in to his main directive, i think, which was to force continuously to have to defend the silly position, sometimes, or statements that mr. Trump has made. Pence didnt take the bait, but i have to say a lot of his responses. He wasnt thinking about his nonverbals as well. How things look also matters as much as what we say. And a lot of shaking of the head and silence sometimes when he would be asked these questions. Can you really defend calling a woman a pig or Something Like that. He didnt respond, but by not responding, that also said something. I thought kaine was more effective in that strategy in pointing these things out. I dont know that pence lost the debate so much as i think his sigh silence spoke volumes. The you go back, you can watch it near the very end where pence said donald trump is not the greatest campaigner. Hes now to politics. Hes not the greatest politician. That was his way of saying i cant explain all these things that he said. On that basis, i thought kaines performance was stronger and his strategy which is trying to force him to defend. As a debate coach, who made the argument. There were a lot of facts thrown in, factchecking. That i werent really correct when they were attacking foundations. What did you come up with . There was a fair amount of debail from detail on both of these. They both served on congress. Maybe pence is more than kaine in some ways on middle eastern policy and rack. They both exaggerated some positions. Mr. Pence failed to mention for example the troop drawdown in rack that the deadline was not negotiated by Hillary Clinton. And mr. Obama president obama. And so his point then dissolved so she could have negotiated. What are you going to offer them to force 100,000 troops. The american public, by the way, to keep 100 to 75,000 troops when everybody said we were never supposed to be in rack in the first place. Lets bring the boys home. Boys and girls, pardon me. And you could make the same arguments about those positions with mr. Kaine. I did think, by the way, when they got to that discussion about abortion and religious faith, there were moments where i thought they were going to have a meeting of the minds on some things out of respect for the faith. Were going to have to bring you back. I know your going to be here. I thought it was a good performance with mr. Kaine. I would disagree with that sense you heard from the others. And will be here all morning. So thank you. Now, after the debate, donald trump tweeted mike pence won beg. We should all be proud of mike. Hillary clinton tweeted lucky to have have a partner like tim kaine who stood up for shared vision instead of trying to deny it. The next president ial debate between Hillary Clinton and donald trump is sunday. You can watch it right here. Ktvufox2. Our coverage begins at 6 00 p. M. A lot of people will be watching that. 6 10 is the time right now have. Investigators in freemont are looking. And police and the Fire Departments are worried this may escalate. Ktvu, youre in freemont right now. And officials are asking for help before somebody really gets hurt. They are. And we are here on warm springs boulevard, dave. And we are in an Office Complex where you can see this is one of the spots that the arsonist targeted. You can see he set a fire here scorched, these trees. And also burned away the bushes that used to be here. So far, the arsonist has been setting vegetation and dumper the thes on fire. And they set fire here since mid july. People who live in the area are worried the flames will spread to their homes. The majority are happening in the overnight hours, but some have occurred during the day. Freemont fire Officials Say the arsonist is tying up resources and putting the community at risk. So they have started out small, and now, the fires have been progressively growing in size and in nature. So its been bushes, along fences, next to homes. Why does he want to do this or he or she would wont wash to do Something Like this to someone else. It is terrible. Its a terrible feeling. Freemont police is working with arson investigators from freemont fire to try to track down the person responsible, and so far they dont have a suspect description, and they dont have a motive. Police patrols have been indrissed in the neighbored other, but they really need information from the public. They are asking anybody who might know anything or have some tips to please give them a call. Reporter thank you. Time is now 6 12. Meantime, protesters in los angeles are angry about two officerinvolved shootings last weekend are demanding that the police chief, charlie beck, be removed. Last night, demonstrators with the lapd and the audience calmed down. And protesters accused the Police Department of covering up Excessive Force of Police Officers. Now, the lapd released Surveillance Video yesterday of a confrontation where 18year old carnell snow was killed. Look at the video. It shows snow holding what appeared to be a gun. And as the face of the Police Department, it is important that the public be able to trust what i say so, i am very, very jealous in what i tell you because that is my goal. Reporter now, in the other confrontation, la police shot and killed a man who they say held a reallooking replica gun. The usual plastic orange tip on the gun was changed to black to match the color of the gun. Time now is 6 13. A deadly hurricane is on the move. Where it is in the u. S. , the storm is now headed and just how soon it could be making landfall. And it really means a lot to us. Because there is a lot of what we like to do especially. Smiles on kids faces. Lots of smiling kids. The blue angels will be in the skies over the bay area tomorrow. But the crew is already out in San Francisco for fleet week. Up next, how they can other Service Members helped out some young patients at ucsf. Welcome back. Its going date of birth a show down tonight in new york. The giants playing the mets for the right to move on in the postseason. Yesterday, the giants and everybody else took batting and fielding practice at city field.

The mets won four games. The giants won three. Tonight, madison balm gaterrer in will be on the mound for the giants. We want to take all games. S not a series. That is really all there is to know about it. You have to go up there, and you have to have your stuff that day. You have to have your command. You have to be on, and that is it. Reporter madison faces noah at 5 00 tonight. The winner of the game moves on to play the chicago cubs in the division series. The American League wildcard Elimination Game ended in dramatic fashion in extra inning innings. The ballgame is over. A lot of cheering there as of the Toronto Blue Jays hit that walkoff threerun home run in the bottom of the 1st inning. The jays beat the Baltimore Orioles 52. The manager drawing criticism, though, for not bringing in closer zack britain who posted hosted the lowest era in the majors this year. The blue jays move on to face the Texas Rangers in their division series. How do you say edwins name . I have had to say it all morning. Encarnacion. There you go. Hey sal, you ready to take care of the folks on the road now . I certainly am. It is already getting busy out there. As a matter of fact, if you are driving inth east bay. We are going to start with the east bay commute. We already see a lot of slow traffic. Lets go to highway 24 westbound. Youll see that traffic is busy here. Its going to be busy as well as you get up to the tunnel. Its not unusually slow because if you drive this way every day, youre going to notice that it is not that different. But it is slow. Were also looking at a commute that is going to be backed up at the bay bridge toll plaza. Traffic is going to be a little bit slow here as well. I am looking at something here that has happened just a few minutes ago. This is northbound 101. Right near the airport. And traffic is backing up close to 88 other 0. I also want to mention an accident that is not on my screen yours truly yet. It is an accident on highway 4 at hillcrest. This one sounds like an injury accident or trying to figure pout what is going on there. Just reading it off from chp computer westbound 4 just before the hillcrest exit. And there is a crash there. Were going to follow up on that. The next time around, right now, lets bring steve in with todays forecast. It looks pretty good. Temperatures starting off a lot cooler this morning than yesterday.

And 46 in gilroy. 43 boulder vehicle and scotts valley. And hey, hey, were a little cool too as well. 45. And 45 in santa clara. And lets get to Hurricane Matthew. It weakened a little bit as it moved over the land and higher terrain, but its now back over open water. Very warm water i might add. And there is very little sheer in the upper atmosphere, so it is going to strengthen again and head over the bahamas. Category three. 115 Miles Per Hour moving north northwest. It will be a jog now towards florida over the next couple of days, and all eyes now look to be on pretty close on the eastern side of the atlantic side of florida. Around fort pearce up to daytona, beach. I am hoping cape canavelral is okay. It looks to be right in line. You get a little jog. 50miles to the east. Up near jacksonville, another forecast model after about richmond, virginia, taken out into the atlantic and not northeast. We shall see. That is a complete reversal from yesterday. Things could change again. All attention will go to florida be there are hurricane warnings and watches up. We do have mostly clear skies. A little system on the northwest. Crescent city, a little bit of light rain. There is a band moving onshore. Not a lot, but a little bit. That has to go through before High Pressure can build in ever so slowly. 4 fairfield. 45 napa airport. Palo alto at 47. 51 in berkeley. 42 another observation. So it is cool for some.

Cooler tomorrow morning and sunny and warmer will take us into thursday, friday, and for sure saturday. It looks nice but a little cooler on sunday. We know sunny and warmer as well.

Well, it is not just the jets and the ships that are at the center ephesian flan syscos fleet week. Its really about the men and women serving in the navy and marine corp. That includes many jobs, but about a dozen Service Members we talked with yesterday say the best duty is spending time with young patients. They went to ucsf antioch childrens hospital. It is the best. I have two kids of my own. Being here to spend some time and enjoy their part of the day. Its the greatest. The marines and sailor spent time playing games telling stories and doing art projects with some of the kids who may be in the hospital for several more weeks or even months. Now, our website, ktvu.

A Syrian Government releases a new video that says shows the devastation in the civil war there. Now, take a look. The video shows what the military government media says its troops running through the city of allepo during their daily patrols. Independent reports from the United Nations say new satellite images show what is an awful lot of new damage. Although the area has been heavily targeted in the past. That damage may be from recent air strikes and the u. N. Says, quote, to a certain extent, you are looking at rubble being pushed around. The Human Rights Group from the United Kingdom says more than 400 civilians have been killed in allepo in the past month. At least three people have been kimed today as typhoon shammed slammed into south korea. Six other people mar narrowly escaped death after the storms swept them from a ferryboat. Members of the south Korean Coast Guard came to their rescue. The ferry was stuck in rough waters and was pulled into a seawall wind from the deadly category five storm that also caused widespread Power Outages and damage to homes and factories. Well, here atth ho em, it appears that new fans of dungeonous crab here in the bay area wont be disappointed this year. Early tests are showing crabs this season are not infected with toxic algae. Last year, very unusually warm coastal waters caused an unprecedented toxic bloom that delayed the opening of the commercial crab season by more than four months. This years season is set to begin on november 15th. Marine biologists are warning there is still enough time for that problem to resurface. So far, it appears the season bo will be able to open on time. Thats great news for the fischerman. They lost so much money. A lot of money. 6 28 is the time right now. Hurricane matthew is making its way towards the u. S. Were keeping an eye on it.

Big changes coming to one of season San Franciscos busiest thoroughfares. The impact its going to have on drivers and people who take muny. Cmohappy birthday i survived a heart attack. Im doing all i can to keep from having another one. And im taking brilinta. For people whove been hospitalized for a heart attack. I take brilinta with a baby aspirin. No more than one hundred milligrams as it affects how well it works. Brilinta helps keep my platelets from sticking together and forming a clot. Brilinta reduced the chance of another heart attack. Or dying from one. It worked better than plavix. Dont stop taking brilinta without talking to your doctor since stopping it too soon increases your risk of clots in your stent, heart attack, stroke, and even death. Brilinta may cause bruising or bleeding more easily, or serious, sometimes fatal bleeding. Dont take brilinta if you have bleeding, like stomach ulcers, a history of bleeding in the brain, or severe liver problems. Tell your doctor about bleeding, new or unexpected shortness of breath, any planned surgery, and all medicines you take. Talk to your doctor about brilinta. Im doing all i can. That includes brilinta. If you cant afford your medication, astra zeneca may be able to help. They prey on our children, spending billions. Addicting 17,000 California Kids each year. Eventually killing onethird of them. Now Tobacco Companies are spending millions to. Defeat prop 56. Because in every state thats raised tobacco taxes, smoking rates go down. So who are you going to trust . Pediatricians, cancer groups and the califronia pta who all. Support prop 56. Or the Tobacco Companies trying to kill it. Vote yes on 56. Thank you for joining us for mornings on 2. Im pam cook. Thank you for joining us. Its 6 31. This morning, with i are tracking the path of Hurricane Matthew. It is a big one and tearing through the caribbean. At least 11 people have been killed. Its now expected to hit the bahamas later today and could reach florida sometime tomorrow night. Ktvus alex savidge has been tracking this and talking about how people across the east coast are preparing for this storm. A lot of folks getting ready here in the u. S. The storm is just north of cuba. A short time ago, Hurricane Matthew was downgraded from a category four storm to a category three. Still people all along the east coast arent taking any chances. A short time ago, south carolinas governor made an announcement some counties are going to be evacuated as a precaution. A state of emergency has been declared at georgia and florida. Many people have already decided to pack up and leave some of the lowlying coastal areas. We heard just a few who issued a strong warning to people in that state. He warned that matthew could bring as much as ten inches of rain to the coastline there and he said a devastating storm surge. We have to prepare a direct hit. And the last 24 hours and thats through the weekend. It is a very slowmoving storm. That means people of less than 24 hours left to prepare, evacuate and shelter. The governor wants everyone to take this storm seriously. Classes have been canceled tomorrow and friday at Many School Districts across floridas east coast. Many people are pulling their boatings out of the water right now ahead of the storm. There is this scene all across florida. This is hollywood florida where shelves were left there in many stores as people stocked up ahead of the storm. Were buying a bunch of canned food and water. And were going to get some more canned goods. Some more paper goods and stuff like that. And now, matthew has already barreled through haiti and it hit the eastern tip of cuba. And packing powerful winds and bringing heavy rain. Homing were destroyed. Trees were toppled. And at least 21 people were killed as a storm moved through that area. Again, along the east coast, people bracing for Hurricane Matthew to potentially make a direct hit if the path takes it in that direction. Floridas governor has called this a potentially catastrophic tomorrow. Storm. Yeah, we know in haiti because they dont have phones or the power is out, we really dont know how bad it really is. At this point, we hear about 1 deaths reported. You have to panel as folks get in there and hope to hope to see the damage and devastation up close. So many of them still living in tents for the earthquake. I know you will be following this all morning. And Steve Paulsen is keeping an eye on this. We talked about this a little while ago. Florida has not been hit. In a long time, a decade. Also while it weakened, its going to strengthen. Its moving back over very warm water. There is very little shear in the atmosphere. And we will get back up to category four. I have seen some to take it right around force pierce, melbourne. There is a lot of resorts right along the eastern seaboard there on parts of florida and up towards jacksonville and the carolinas after that. The forecast model taking out to sea. Florida will be the key. Miami looks to be out of the mix a little bit. From force peirce to jacksonville looks to be primetime. Again, it could move a little eastward drift could change all of that. 60s and 707s for us. Sunny. Nice little cool on the low. Lake county is a very cool here this morning at 41 degrees. I believe it. It looks to be a clear fall day. Mostly sunny. We get this system still to our north that is kind of Holding Things in which can. After that, it goes through everything and points toward warmer weather. 50s along the temperature. A lot more 40s. The east bay. Walnut creek, 44. 46 black hawk. 47 by concord. 49 la fayette. And a little cool. Around 10 degrees. Mostly sunny here. 60s and 7 0s. Sal, what is on your screen at 6 36. We do see some slow traffic. We see a minor crash, and we also see just the commutes that are beginning to fill in. Its not all slow, but in commute, for example, has filled in. It is backed up here at the bay bridge for a 20minute delay before you make it on to the span. And of course, 80 is getting more crowded through berkeley. We also see slow traffic on 680 appears. Lets appearing. Lets go to some of the other commutes that we have. I want to show you that a 580 commute is still going to be have as you drive through the pass. Slowing again on 680. Leaving through freemont. Highway 4 there was an accident at hillcrest, and a backup even though it is on the shoulder. While most of the slow traffic is here in pittsburg and bay point as you drive west. One more thing. 280 northbound, this is well, its going to be slow. This commute seems to be getting earlier and earlier. The slow traffic, that is, driving on into the west valley. At 6 37, lets go back to the desk. If you drive in San Francisco, expect big changes to one of the busiest roads in San Francisco. K, thetvr ktvu. The first thing we told you about to the last hour. And market and union. Starting at the end of this month, there will no longer be three lanes of traffic in each direction. Ripping up the center lane right by that mood yan. And those lanes are going to be exclusive. You can see this animation, those bus lines will be painted red. We will also have some trees and plants on either side separating the bus lane from the other lanes of traffic. It is supposed to speed up the flow of buses on this street. They arrive at their stops every four to five minutes. Construction is at that going to start early this month and going to be finished. And another is on polk street. That will create dedicated bike lanes on either side. Some Street Parking will have to go because of it. And sfmta says these changes are needed because of the high rate of car and pedestrian collisions. On average, one person biking and one person walking are hit by a car each month alone. So these two road projects are already approved. They are prepared to start breaking ground and beginning them at the end of this month. And there is no change in them going forward. However, if people in the community have any questions or want to find out more, a Community Meeting about these two road projects from 6 00 to 8 00 tonight. That is going to be held at the Tenderloin Community school unitor street. Back to you, pam and dave. Very interesting. Thank you, alley. 6 38 is the time. East bay mud crews are still working on that broken water main in berkeley. Parts of berkeley still where that water main yesterday afternoon. It burst yesterday afternoon about 12 30. And about 40 buildings Near University aver and grant street have been without water since then. The university was closed from mlk way all the way to mcgee to give crews room to work. Now they hope to have that water back on in the next hour and a half. Other parts of the job can take a little bit longer. We are learning more about other complaints against the former Police Officer charged in the bay area of Law Enforcement sex scandal. Prosecutors say that former livermore Police Officer dan black has a history of Sexual Misconduct allegations against him including recording a sexual encounter without permission and having sex with someone under the influence. Black is facing five misdemeanors of having sex and serving alcohol to a minor. Sea lest now using her real name. Also a hearing for retired Oakland Police Sergeant Johnson was postponed. The defense lawyer Michael Green whether or not often represents Police Officers talked about this case. The channels the charging decisions were hastey, and i think they were perhaps driven by politics. So far, five current and former Police Officers have been charged in connection with the scandal. She had sex with 29 local Police Officers. The white house is stepping not after devastating wildfires are driving firefighting costs to near record levels. Yesterday, the white house budget director called on congress to increase funding for the u. S. Forest service. For years, the Obama Administration has been pushing to allow the Forest Service to dip into a Disaster Fund when its firefighting allotment has been used up. Lawmakers have not been able to come to an agreement. Some say it will cut into floods for hurricane and flooding. Others say firefighters wont be as financial responsible if they have the emergency funds to fall back on. The good news is all of the evacuation orders issued for the destructive loma fire have now been lifted. That fire has been burning on loma since last week. Calfire said yesterday crews have started removing equipment and the fire is now 90 contained. It is a it has destroyed 28 structures including 12 homes, burned 4500 acres. The cause is still under investigation. Time is 6 41. San francisco is now on the list evening dangered historic. And found that they could be badly damaged or even destroyed by a major earthquake. The rising sea level is also a threat to it. We have reported on how vulnerable that 100yearold sea wall is. The city is now trying to fix the problem. It is now 6 41. Strangers coming together to help their neighbors. I had a sweet little boy come empty his piggie bank on my counter. A heartwarming story. In 20 minutes, the outpouring of support for people who lost everything in a fire in petaluma. A report that a bay area tech giant is looking at the e mail coming into customers accounts. Well tell you if that is true, its not legal under the construction. Good morning. We see slow traffic all over the place now especially in the east bay, but also in the south bay. Here on the bridge, its getting more clouded approaching treasure island. Welcome back. Yahoo is getting a larger number of requests to terminate accounts. Yahoo allowed u. S. Intelligence officials to scan private e mails coming into yahoo accounts. Government officials are not commenting at this point. No one seems to know why the government would be interested in yahoo accounts in particular. And the Electronic Frontier foundation says if that report is true, it is a troubling case of invasion of privacy. Were talking about a very, very broad sort of order to the company like yahoo where they are asked to scan all incoming emails. That really isnt the sort of thing they should be complying with it. It is impossible to do that in a constitutional way. At this point, yahoo is not confirming or denying the accusation it developed a scanning program or even turned over information to the federal government. Google is making a big push into the hardware business with its new high end android smart phone called pixel. That phone is offered through verizon on google play and prices start at 60 . People who have seen the phones say a 12 mp camera ask Higher Quality than the iphone 7. It also fits into a new 80 Virtual Reality headset. The phone also has a Google Assistant which is a voice activated helper that is also featured in the new products called google home. Okay, google. Play dont let me down by the chainsmokers. Dont let me down by the chainsmokers. Sure, playing on youtube. Google home comes in seven colors. It costs 129 . It is definitely doing better than my car when i try to do the voice in my car.
