Lets talk about our weather this morning. Steve paulson is ready, plenty to talk about. Rain is on the way, just not today. Clear skies except for patchy fog out there. Santa rosa, a little over the bay, east bay as well, looks like a beautiful friday and a little warmer. Temps coming up. Perfect morning in sausalito at 49 degrees. Jake, nippy 33 here in friendly city of rohnert park with a thin layer of ground fog. 30s and 40s on the temps, a little cool for some, not bad for others much. Were a couple degrees warmer than the last couple mornings. Rain, rain, rain in the pacific northwest. Snow in the cascades. This will be our weather maker late saturday into sunday. Its on its way. Its beginning to dip south. Cold morning, patchy fog, breeze in the hills. 60s on the temps, near 70 santa rosa and santa cruz. Luck be a lady by francis albert. Love that song. That was from guys and dolls. Yes, it was. But it also reminds me of all the sin atra movies, especially the ones he did with the rat pack. Good morning, everyone. We digress sometimes. I want to start off with something trouble some, southbound 880 is below the speed limit for most of the way from 238 to thornton avenue because of earlier issues. The rest of the commute looks good. If you can use 680 out of pleasant ton to fremont, that would be better. Or get on the freeway after thornton. San mateo looks good. Bay bridge toll plaza, that is about a 20 minute wait. 7 03. We have the big traffic story this morning. Big rig crash on the on ramp to interstate 80 in richmond. Chp hoped to reopen it now, but the ramp still stay closed for hours. Alex savidge is there with an update. Reporter yes, sal, theyre trying to sort this out. Crews are going to drag this tractortrailer down the on ramp here, the carlson boulevard on ramp. Theyre going to move it to an area where they have more room to maneuver it so they can off load hay thats in there and hoping theyll be able to flip it upright. All of that may take a while. In the meantime, this on ramp is going to remain closed, probably for another couple of hours. The driver lost control on the freeway at about 2 00 this morning. And he went right over the guardrail, down this embankment and then landed on the on ramp on its side. The truck was on its side. Loaded with hay, headed to oakland. Also hit the sound wall, sending cinder blocks flying into the street on the other side of the on ramp. The driver of the truck, i talked with him, he tells me he simply swerved to avoid another car that cut him off. But the driver was not hurt. Hes certainly thankful for that. I feel lucky. Yeah. I dont blame you. Could have been worse. I know. I see a lot of people getting hurt really bad, hurt somebody. Those things are really heavy. Reporter chp is investigating the exact cause of this crash. It doesnt appear as though the driver of that big rig will be cited if any way. The bigger issue is trying to clear the tractortrailer out of the way and get this on ramp back open. You can see now they have two large tow trucks here at the scene. Theyre going to hook them up to the tractortrailer, pull the trailer all the way down here to an area of the on ramp thats a little wider so they have more room to maneuver, then offload hay thats on there and flip this thing upright. Thats the game plan. Well, of course, be here to see how it all plays out. And here we are in the middle of the morning commute. Alex, thank you. New this morning, a car chase through the streets of hayward ended in officerinvolved shooting. Janine is live there. Reporter this is new information that a sergeant told me about the suspect. The suspect was a sex offender under megans law. He has a rape conviction. At the time deputies had no idea who they were after, just that this man was driving a stolen car and this all ended here in this neighborhood. It was very intense. The driver was just being erratic. He ended up backing up into this lawn of this house. You can see all the damage from the bricks when he did that. And then deputies say thats when he started charging at officers. And then he hit this telephone pole. Heres video we took of that stolen car that the suspect was driving. There is a bullet hole in the windshield and hood and it got smashed up. Alameda county sheriffs spokesman told us the suspect used the car as a weapon and tried to run the deputy over. Deputies started chasing the car around midnight and spotted it on eighth street. The pursuit went through surface streets and finally ended when they had him cornered the in the neighborhood. The deputy feared for his life because the suspect started accelerating and thats why he ended up firing several rounds. Those gunshots woke up neighbors. I heard, like, four or five of them. And then my daughter was like oh, mom, theres gunshots. And i was like i heard them. Thats when i put her inside and i came and looked and cops were coming from everywhere. Reporter the bullets did not hit the driver and he was uninjured. He was arrested. Were told he is 26 years old and already had a warrant out for invading police on a different incident. There was a female passenger who was with him. She was questioned, but not arrested. No deputies were injured in this whole situation. Theyre wrapped up here at the scene and now they are going to carefully go over that stolen car just to look for evidence at their tow yard. Thank you. Time 7 08. Sonoma county teenager filed a civil rights lawsuit against a sheriffs deputy claiming the deputy used Excessive Force against her during an altercation at her home. It happened june 13th at a Graduation Party for 18yearold gabby lemos. Deputy holt n stopped to investigate a double parked truck. Grabbed her sister from the passenger seat and thats when she tried to intervene. She claims the deputy threw her to the driveway and ground her face into the grafl. The Sheriffs Department said that deputies behaved with restraint and professionalism during a highly volatile situation. Gabby reportedly will be charged with resisting arrest. Recent discovery on a remote had hillside in los gatos prompts a new search for missing teenager. Seven volunteers spent five hours scouring an area in the santa cruz mountains. Dog walker discovered a human skull there last month. The Sheriffs Office told sierras father there is no reason to believe the skull is hers, but searchers are Still Holding out hope they can provide some closure to her family. Didnt expect people to keep going like they have, but, yeah. And we know all of them that go out. Theyre like family to us. 15yearold sierra lamar disappeared on her way to school in 2012. Angela Garcia Torres is found with her murder. The last official search was eight months ago, but a core group of volunteers conduct unofficial searches about twice a month. Last months Heated City Council will meeting in alameda could change things. The council was considering a two month moratorium on large rent increases of. Some of the tenants say they werent allowed into the Council Chambers and could not speak at that council hearing. One Council Woman now tells the Bay Area News Group she wants to change how the chambers seats are allocated. The planned implosion of a section of the old bay bridge i on for this weekend. Well talk to caltrans about this major operation. Also the road closures you need to know about. He was seen in the isis videos showing the beheading of three americans. The report on the u. S. Attack that may have killed the man known as jihadi john. Good morning. Looking the at the San Francisco commute. Traffic doesnt look to bad, although pretty crowded on the southbound 101. Already lots of sunshine, a little fog. That wont last long. Warm weather on this friday, but changes are brewing for late saturday. More on that coming up. Gas. Gas mikia. Gasia mikaelian. The possibility hamed emwazi. The possibility that the terrorist known as jihadi john was killed by a u. S. Drone attack in syria. Doug joining us live from washington, d. C. Doug, the the he was killed, this would be a blow to isis, right . Yeah. This is a guy who is a high profile if figure. Hes known as jihadi john. His the actual name in mohamed emwazi. But hes known as jihadi john, a real man as menacing figure for isis. Weve been working collaboratively to track him to go after him. Saw him get into a vehicle in syria, targeted that vehicle with a drone, destroyed the vehicle. The assumption is that he was inside. Were waiting for confirmation of that, confirmation that he has been killed. If thats the case, its not just a battle field victory, but a real symbolic victory because he was such a high profile operator seen in those videos. This could be a significant blow for isis and it comes as weve seen across the border in iraq, the kurdish fighters take the city of synjar. Combined, two pieces of very bad news for isis as the war on that front continues. So well see if in fact this kill is corroborated, if its confirmed. But a big victory for u. S. And Coalition Forces if this ends up being the case. Hey, doug, i dont know if you have an answer for this question. The reaction of the american families, the families of the victims of those who were beheaded. They are not their reactions have been interesting. Theyre not real happy. Well, you know, you have there were u. S. Hostages that were killed, british hostages killed. I know a british family was upset to the extent they wanted this victim brought to justice. But i think intelligence agencies would argue this is the only effective way they have to go after him. This is not an individual who was ultimately being to face trial anywhere. Right. Doug, thank you. Now to the latest scandal involving the secret service. Preliminary hearing set in delaware for a man accused of trying to solicited a teenage girl for text and texting obscene images. Hes on leave from the secret service, surrendering his badge and gun. Other scandals have been abundant. Gasia, lets bring sal back, check your commute. I know youre watching highway 24 and everything else. I was talking to julie about how were addicted to coffee. Coffee is a drug. Be careful. Save some for me. Exactly. Good morning, everybody. Take your cup of joe to go this morning. Were going to start with highway 24. This looks pretty good. There are no major problems here, but it is a little slow in lafayette. This is nothing compared to what you see on the first four days of the week. Bay bridge toll plaza is backing up for about a 15 to 20 minute delay. The commute that im not that fond of is not 680, not 580, its 880. We have a couple of earlier accidents on the way down through fremont and 880 is backed up just after 238. When you get to san jose, its definitely lighter than usual. Youll see slowing, but the slow downs are not as long. 7 18, lets go to steve in the weather center. Cold morning, a little fog over San Pablo Bay and the golden gate. Up towards petalulma, i know there are parts of thick fog. Rohnert park too. Well cloud up saturday night. Overnight saturday into sunday, rain returns and it will be colder as well. This is from lindsey. Wonderful friday the 13th fall morning over here in san jose. Time to bust out my scarf. And kristen, too cold. It was 58 degrees on my house when i woke up at 6 a. M. I mean, in my house. Thats cold, kristen. Turn the heater on. It is a little chilly. Some of the fog out to the valley. 30s for some, 40s, 50s. Sfo, 47. San jose 43. There are plenty of thirds, but tending to be of 30s, but upper 30s. Water temps are cold, San Francisco buoy, 58, 59. 18 up in truckee. Ukiah at 39 degrees. 21 in south lake tahoe. Temperatures about ten degrees colder a couple days ago. It is getting pummeled in the pacific northwest. There are radar returns southwest Olympic Mountains around six to ten inches of rain and there is a lot of snow, just stacking up here. Look at that. This is a whopper of a system. It is eventually going to dip. You can see it start taking shape. Thats our system coming in late saturday into sunday. Today is fine. Most of saturday looks good. But then we cloud up. Patchy fog this morning. Sunny and warmer on the temps. But late saturday to the north, this will be a stronger system to the north, which is the complete opposite of the last two systems where san jose and areas south had more rain. This could be three quarters to an inch farther north. If youre heading to the mountains, today or saturday morning would be good. Sunday looks like a snow day. Could be a foot of snow at some of the higher elevations. Cold morning, sunny and warmer today. The breeze easterly or northerly breeze in the hills. 60s to 70 san rows. Fairfield 67. 70 in santa cruz. 68 san jose, morgan hill and gilroy is colder than that. They have a harder time recovering. Partly to mostly sunny, cloudy saturday. Rain while most of us snooze into sunday morning and cold pattern into monday. Take a look at this. Were getting mild weather, tornado touched down near the airport in des moines, iowa. Sent a mobile staircase is cross the runway wednesday. Watch as it smashes right into the side of the plane. Residents in the area are left to pick up the pieces after this powerful storm. There goes the staircase again, straight across and then right into the plane. There is a worker nearby. They do not appear to be hurt. Storm packed winds of 70 miles an hour and ripped through the area, leaving behind a big mess. Time is 7 21. Black lives Matter Movement may get a big boost in funding soon. But why some supporters are saying no thank you, even though it could i am crease the groups impact increase the groups impact. And a student may be going too far or was it the school that overreacted. Up next, the love note written by a 9yearold boy that has a principal threatening him with Sexual Harassment charges. From the 80s, from the time when i used to kind of be a dj back then. Joe boxers just got lucky. Man, people used to have weird hair back then when this song was out. This was requested by including me. I had a lot more hair and it was all black. This was requested by laura greenfield. If there is a special song, let us know. Today our theme is lucky or unlucky, because its friday the 13th. Hashtag on twitter, facebook, or instagram. Hundreds of students at uc berkeley took part in the nationwide rally dubbed the million student march, demanding free tuition at all public universities and colleges, 15 minimum wage and for student debt to be wiped clean. Students wrote loan amounts down on posters. In order to do what we need to do in society, in order to be be able to provide for our people, we have to be able to is support ourselves. We cant do that if were in in debt for the rest of our lives. It was inspired by vermont senator and president ial candidate Bernie Sanders. He said that Higher Education could be subsidized by a robin hood tax by certain transactions on wall street. Sanders said the only way anyone would take the demands seriously is if if a million marched. The mother of a 9yearold boy in tampa, florida says his Elementary School threatened him with Sexual Harassment because he wrote a note to a classmate. He liked her, thought her eyes spark eld like diamonds. Others kids started teasing him and then the principal got involved. Told me it wasnt appropriate and if he writes another one, theyre going to file Sexual Harassment charges on my 9yearold. She doesnt even know she says he doesnt he know what Sexual Harassment means. A lot of people saying the principal went way too far. Mysterious piece of space debris crashed into the ocean overnight. Youll see video posted on youtube by the International Astronomical center and the United Arab Emirates space safety. That was supposed to enter the earths atmosphere, but that wasnt the case for people on the ground. Many on social media saying cloudy skies blocked their view. Most of the space debris likely burned up upon entry. Major closure on San Francisco very busy street, van ness. Well show you the worst and take you on the detours youll be using to get around. Live on Treasure Island where hopefully this time morning up here on the old eastern span of the bay bridge will be demolished. Coming up the plan in place to do that and how this could impact your saturday morning commute. Good morning. Traffic is looking pretty good around the bay and the mcarthur maze. Well tell you a little more straight ahead. a;. Look at that pretty picture on your tv. Your friday is going to get off to a great start. Live pictures from Treasure Island, the implosion of the big section of the old bay bridge is now delayed. It is planned now for tomorrow. Well bring back brian flores. He has more information on the implosion as well as a warning for drivers who plan to cross the bay bridge. You will not be able to do that for a time tomorrow morning. You cant get up close to watch it wauz you wont see much because you wont see much above the water, you can watch it live. Im gasia mikaelian. Good morning. Im dave clark. Steve paulson is talking about your weather on this friday. Today is nice, but rain sunday. More snow in the mountains. A little cold. I know that. Lows are running a bit warmer than the last couple mornings. A little hint of fog. San pablo bay moving back around up towards the north bay. Gary up in petalulma said its so foggy where he is he opened the front door and now cant find his shoes. I like that. 38 in windsor. Mill valley 34. Higher elevations there is relatively warmer air, translating into a warmer afternoon. Upper 60s to near 70. Still 30s around napa airport. Palo alto has been there. 38. San ramon is about 35 degrees. Looks good up in the severe nevada today, but starts to increase Sierra Nevada today, but starts to increase tomorrow. Thats a heck of a system in the pacific northwest. Ill say. It is pouring up there. Thats our system coming in late saturday and sunday. Mendocino county, lake county, lesser amounts south. This will be more favoring the north bay than the south. Late saturday, early sunday fl 60s to 70s. Santa cruz in there as well. Sal, 7 32. What do you have for us, sir . Weve had the one issue thats been there all morning, the carlson on ramp to westbound 80. That is not available right now. Were looking at the bay bridge on interstate 80 just down the road. Youll see the traffic is going to be okay this morning. Wade through a little slow traffic, but not too bad once you make it on to the bridge, not a bad commute into San Francisco. Look at the san mateo bridge. That traffic is moving along okay. Done barton bridge not a big commute. The bay shore freeway doesnt look too bad. Slowing in palo alto. Burlg game and san mateo is not bad. Let me show that to you. Today is much better than yesterday. Northbound the to southbound 101 to south San Francisco. A little slow into the valley on 101. Also keeping an eye on a big construction project in San Francisco thats shutting down part of van ness avenue all weekend. Were looking at whats causing it and how to get around it. I feel like im giving you an assist on traffic. You are, buddy, giving folks an idea of what is going on on van ness. You can see what the detours look like as you make your way through San Francisco. Van ness is closed between post and geary, but the detours start several blocks in either direction of that. Drivers need to be ready for delays as they make their way through the area. Crews are working to divert traffic on to side streets as early as possible so they dont bottleneck at the closures. The last block on either side is a virtual ghost town. Crews are working to divert traffic off van ness. Only muni and emergency vehicles are allowed through that area between post and geary. Big trench there, workers to remove the temporary tunnel structure that had been in place. Theyre working on a permanent tunnel. Weve talked with the Construction Company this morning and they say so far the project is on schedule and they want drivers to leave extra time to make sure they can make their way past this major project. Were right on schedule this morning. Things have worked out nicely so far. Weve checked the detour. The detour is enacted. We havent had to process all of our relief valves yet. The traffic isnt that heavy. But we expect heavier traffic between 8 and 9 00. Relief valves he was talking about are the ways of getting traffic on to the side streets there. Work going on underground there. The closure means that traffic detoured for several blocks to the north and south, trying to get traffic off van ness and on to the side streets. Northbound traffic is going to be diverted on to franklin. The work scheduled to run through sunday night and wrapped up in time for monday mornings commute. Coming back to our live shot, if you take a look at our gopro shot mounted on front of our truck, this is the diversion detour were trying to take. There is stopped, heavy traffic here, basically the at the intersection of van ness and post. Thank you. Well talk to you later. Time 7 36. A woman was hit and killed last night in Contra Costa County after she got out of her car following a minor car crash to Exchange Insurance information with another driver. This happened about 7 30 last night just outside of concord. The chp says two cars were involved in a minor crash. Two women and a man got out of their cars. They were exchanging Insurance Information when the chp says a third car came up from behind and slammed into the cars. A 35yearold woman from san bruno and a 36yearold man from San Francisco were hit. They were later taken to the hospital with serious injuries. The woman later died. Chp still investigating, but says drugs and alcohol do not appear to be a factor. 7 37 now. The planned implosion of the largest pier of the old span of the bay bridge is set to happen tomorrow morning. Brian flores live on Treasure Island with how its gooding to happen and what going to happen and what it could mean for traffic. Reporter it could impact traffic saturday morning. We have a bay bridge spokesperson here to talk more about that and talk about this planned implosion. Good morning to you. There is a couple of points of clarification that we need to address first. The first thing is that there is actually a sign out there this morning, but theyre not accurate. Weve been testing our signage for the actual implosion. I just want to clarify that the window of time for the implosion itself tomorrow will be 7 a. M. And so the rolling block, the time that the traffic will be delayed, is 5 to 15 minutes beforehand. And then immediately after the implosion, the traffic will be allowed to proceed. Were working very closely with chp to ensure as little inconvenience will be given to the public. Were working really hard to ensure this delay will be short and the traffic can move forward quickly. Bottom line, the bay bridge is not expected to be closed for a full hour, correct . No. That is not our plan plan. The second point of clarification is this isnt something we were talking about. When we talk about implosion, the scenes in vegas where they try to demolish the hotels and stuff, but youre not going to see anything from the bridge, right, from the surface . No. There will be nothing to view be on top of the water. The bike path will be closed. Encouraging the public to stay home. Look at it on the internet. It will be live streamed. Chp will be on the bay bridge, but also in the bay on the water, ensuring that any boat traffic will steer clear of the area as well. This was quite a process to get everyone on board. Were talking about a lot of environmental groups as well. You were talking with doing an implosion underneath the water thats going to affect sea life, could affect the birds as well. Whats the plan in . I understand there is going to be people out there, experts monitoring that as well . We work with local, state, and federal agencies, all of the resource agencies to ensure that were being environmental stu address. There has been a great deal of monitoring going on prior to the blast, during the blast and post blast. There will be significant presence of environmental specialists that will be here ensuring that we are doing everything that is environmentally sound. Whats the next window of opportunity to do this again if there is something that goes wrong . If there is something that delays the process, being a maamal in the area or what have you, our second window of opportunity will be at approximately 1 p. M. Tomorrow. And that will probably impact traffic even more. Yes. But we have chp in place ready for the second window of opportunity as well. Thank you very much. We understand chp is going to be patrolling the roads as well. Patrol boat on the water to make sure the waterways are clear. This is a go so far for the planned implosion of the older part of the pier on the old eastern span of the bay bridge. Brian, to reiterate what we heard, though the signs say bay bridge closed from 7 to 8 tomorrow, the closure starts about 5 to 15 minutes before implosion set for 7, so this could be a halfhour, 20minute inconvenience some. Exactly right. If if even that from what were hearing. The signs say 7 to 8, but thats the case. Were talking 15, 20 minute block of time from when the planned implosion is supposed to take place . Yes. 5 to 15 minutes on the front end and potentially on the back end. As soon as the implosion occurs and all is clear with chp, traffic will proceed as before. Yeah, leah has gotten several phone calls from people very concerned that this was going to be a straight hour of a closure. But you heard from your bay bridge spokesperson here that its going to be a 15, 20 minute window when this implosion happens, scheduled for tomorrow morning at 7. I saw the same sign you did coming in. Thanks for the new information. San jose Police Arrested a fugitive who made a daring escape from bail bonds men last month. Police went to a home in southeast san jose last night, looking for burglary and assault suspect david nyang. Several people ran out of the house including the suspect. Police got one, but the others went back inside, leading to a threehour stand off. The officers moved in just before 8 00. They fired flash bangs and captured nyang.

Theyre imploding part of the old bay bridge. Your best bet is to stay home and watch the stream live on the internet. Our cameras are going to be pointed out there too. Thank you for joining us had on mornings on 2. Lets check weather and traffic now. Steve paulson, today is incrementally warmer than the past couple of mornings have been. Might be a few 70s. They dont last long, but theyll hit there, dave and gasia. Some fog is lifting now. Beautiful friday over the bay. Temperatures rebounding from the 30s and 40s to 50s. End up with a lot of upper 60s to 70s. Some of that fog is creeping back tomorrow morning. Morgan hill and gilroy low 40s. 30s in the santa cruz mountains. Boulder creek and scots valley in there. Looks great today, lots of sunshine. They are getting hammered up here for rain and snow in the pacific northwest. Look at this system. This will be ours for late, late saturday into sunday. But ill the tell you, the rain and snow is on the go up there. Cold morning, sunny and warmer, breeze in the hills. Nice weather for just about everybody here. Sal, what do you have for us, sir . Im sorry. My ear piece fell out. But i can still hear you, steve. Just think youre cia. The traffic is going to be busy. Were going to start off looking at the east bay because that has the busiest traffic right now. Bay bridge is improving a little bit. On fridays sometimes we get a little bump, a little break here. This morning were seeing a little improvement already. Looking at interstate 880 northbound, we see the slow traffic past the Oakland Airport exit heading up to downtown oakland. Southbound 880 continues to be one of the worst commutes today. Started off bad with a couple earlier accidents. Southbound 238 down to fremont. Northbound 101 is filled in from about mik key all the way up to Mountain View. 8 03. Lets go back to the desk. Major on ramp, interstate 80 in richmond remains closed. Weve been on this since 4 00 this morning. The carlson on ramp was shut down, a big rig flipped over carrying a load of hay. Alex savidge is out there. Is is there a new timetable to reopen the area . Reporter there certainly is. Clearing this has turned out to be a challenge. Now chp is estimating they may not have the on ramp back open until 1 00 this afternoon. That may be a conservative estimate, but it is going to take quite some time. This tractortrailer that flipped over last night, its hard to see here through all the chp trucks and the tow trucks and all that. But it is down there and it is loaded with hay. Its just turned out to be a bit too heavy to flip over for these tow trucks. What crews are going to do is they are in the process of dragging this tractortrailer loaded with hay down the on ramp to a wider area of the road where the tow trucks have more room to maneuver. Theyre going to offload some of that hay too. The driver lost control on the freeway about 2 00 this morning, went off the side of the freeway westbound interstate 80, and then he wound up on the on ramp on his side. This all happened, again, 2 this morning. The truck was hauling a load from the sacramento area down to oakland. And that big rig did hit a sound wall on the side of the on ramp, sent cinder blocks flying. But really the truck didnt hit any other cars. The driver was not hurt, which is really incredible. And i did talk with the driver of this big rig. He told me that he swerved to avoid another car that had cut him off on the freeway. I tried to not crush it and i ended up in the road. You went right off the freeway . Yeah, right off the freeway, you know. Just tried to prevent an accident from the car. Reporter the chp investigating the exact cause of the crash. It does not appear as though the big rig driver will be cited, but his company will be picking up the tab for this drawn out recovery process. We bring you back to the live picture, still going on six hours after this Early Morning crash, moving this tractortrailer out of the way. This on ramp has turned out to be quite a challenge. Crews dragging it to a wider area and then offload some of that hay. Then use the tow trucks again to try to once again flip this thing, get it on its wheels and tow it out of the way. The estimate from the chp, this on ramp may not reopen until 1 00 this morning. This has changed the morning commute for a lot of drivers. Reporter yeah, obviously people coming from neighborhoods in richmond, this is their normal route, they like to come and get on the freeway here at carlson boulevard. Theyre going to have to make their way over to central to get on the freeway. Also important to point out, this is not impacting traffic on interstate 80. Its not impacting traffic. As weve been looking on the freeway, you have normal slow down, but this is not impacting traffic. Alex savidge from richmond. 8 07. New this morning a car chase through the streets of hayward ends of gunfire near the airport. Janine de la vega, youre in hayward now. This sounds pretty intense. Reporter it was really a crazy situation, dave. Deputies had to make a split second decision. We spoke to the woman who lives in the home. She heard the gunshots and that suspect crashed into her brick wall here. You can see the tire tracks down here in the grass. She was watching this all from her window. She was worried and freaked out because her kids room is right there and she thought the car was going to crash into their room, but it didnt. This all ended up starting at midnight, Alameda County sheriffs deputies say they spotted this stolen car on eighth street. They started chasing it and that went on for five minutes through the surface streets. They xhas chased the car they chased the car into the dead end street and thats when the car smashed into the wall and came to the front lawn. The deputy got out of the car but says the suspect started accelerating and tried to run hill over. He fired several rounds at the car. The resident who lived at the home was panicking. The car, it will go there, reverse is its going to be in the kids room. So crazy, very crazy last night. Youre very calm last night. Were you freaked out . Oh, yeah, was like my heart here. Sheriffs Spokesman Says the deputy feared for his life and thats why he shot. The male driver was not hit. The bullets went through the windshield and hood of the car. Hes 26 years old and has prior violent felony convictions, also a warrant out for evading police. A female passenger was with him. She was questioned but not arrested. No deputies were injured in this whole incident. Besides the damage that you see here from this brick wall, after that, that is when that car accelerated. The officer fired. The car then crashed into this telephone pole. And really you cant see any damage, so its lucky that it didnt fall over and there was no more damage. Then that would have been quite a dangerous situation. The it was a telephone pole there. But the scene is wrapped up. Police are investigating and theyre going to comb over the stolen vehicle to look for more evidence in this case. Gasia, dave. Janine de la vega in hayward. Thank you.

Sal is following several things this morning. Things are Getting Better. I dont want to paint a bleak picture, but there has been slow traffic out there, caused largely by accidents. Lets start with a look at the commute in the east bay because thats where the slow actually starting in the south bay. I put the good picture first. Look at 280. Completely improved up to highway 17. I have a map here of the south bay where 280 has improved. It does slow at 17. 85 is improving. 101 still backed up from mik key, but thats Getting Better. Slows to highway 237 and slow in Mountain View in both directions. The bay shore freeway has been moderate. No big issues. Bay bridge toll plaza, youll see that traffic is backed up out to the mcarthur maze. But even 880 ramps are improving. This morning waiting around has helped. If if you have tile to wait around if you have time to wait around longer, it will probably be to your advantage. Cold morning giving way to a nice, sunny, warmer afternoon. Upper 60s to near 70 in the cards today. Beautiful picture here because we have Crystal Clear skies and a little bit of fog. But it didnt last long. That really wasnt much of a factor. We have another system on the way next week. This is from rocks. Is it going to rain at the raider game this sunday . Thats a huge game. In they play minnesota. I think thats Adrian Petersons first trip to the coliseum. I think so. I believe it is. I think the rain will be the front will be through by 1 00, but still cold, breezy, windy conditions. Most of the rain will be early sunday morning, but it will be close. I would take the rain gear. Upper 40s to 50s thousand, rebounding fast now, rebounding fast. Great in the severe today. Increasing and low clouds tonight and tomorrow. 55 bodega bay. 57, 59 halfmoon bay. These are the coldest temps ive seen consistently for almost a year and i think theyll get colder because of a really strong system in the pacific northwest. Look at this. I mean, it is raining like you know what up in the pacific northwest. Snow in the cascades. Look at this fech here coming in. Thats really cold air up there coming out of the gulf of alaska. Somebody wrote me and said is this a typhoon or a hurricane fech . No. Just powerful lows coming off japan, getting a lot of cold air support. This is kind of an Atmospheric River setup. Torrential set up until it slides south. I think it has a little more punch here to the north than to the south. Complete reversal of the last couple systems. Sunny and nice today, dont lose fact of that. Saturday starts off all right. Late saturday cloudy up. Quarter of an inch to three quarters to cloverdale north, up into lake county and mendocino county. Three quarters to an inch is possible. Farther south a quarter to half inch. This is a cold system, though, so the cold air continues to give showers. 60s on the temps to near 70. Offshore breeze as well, so that helps spew temps. 70 santa cruz. San jose 68. Los gatos 67. Clouding up late saturday and everybody on sunday. Cold, breezy into early next week. All right, steve. Thank you. Anytime. 8 20 is the time. Look at this. New this morning, a rally in new york.

Lets go to doug in washington. Republican debates continue to draw huge tv ratings. This democratic debate this weekend in iowa probably wont get the same level of attention because the democratic contest right now is not exactly a nailbiter. For hillary clinton, reason to celebrate, yet another poll shows she is well on her way to locking down the democratic nomination. A cbs New York Times survey has her at 52 , nearly 20 points up on closest rival, Bernie Sanders. They will faceoff in a debate this weekend in iowa. Even in that state, clintons lead is sizeable. Still one stumbling block remains, the fbi investigation into her email server. With agents now agency whether clinton other those around her made false statements. The same issue that led to Martha Stewarts prosecution. She was asked about activities and lied about them. As a result of the lies, she was prosecute and convicted under this very statute. Republicans continue to spar. Immigration splits them. Donald trump continuing to back his hard line. Its basically quite simple, but its going to be done in a very humane fashion. People will have to go out if they are illegal immigrants. People will have to be deported, but we have to deal realistically with the fact that we have 12 or 13 million people. Even the you have perfect border even if you have perfect border security, even if if you build a wall, what do you do about the immigrants already here . Donald trump had harsh words for ben carson during a rally in iowa yesterday. Trump sharply questioned carsons claims that a belt buckle saved a friends life when carson tried to stab him as a teen. An amazing belt stayed totally flat and the knife broke. How stupid are the people of iowa . How stupid are the people of the country to believe this crap . Carson says the stabbing incident helped turn him to christian space. Cnn says carson feels sorry for trump and is praying for him. Theyre neck and neck in iowa. More changes at the university of missouri. What the new interim i am president says about the recent protests and how hes hoping to keep things calm. Driving around the area of the van ness street closure to give you a sense of what the morning commute might be like. You can see a stoplight and plenty of traffic in the area. Well update you and give you the latest on how traffic is shaping up for your morning commute. Live on Treasure Island where a planned implosion is a go. Well tell you how this could impact your traffic tomorrow morning as mornings on 2 continues. a;. Good morning. Welcome back to mornings on 2 at 8 31. Live pictures of Contra Costa County. Happy friday the 13th, which it is. And the music youre listening to, Janet Jacksons 1989 song called black cat. Superstition says it is unlucky if a black cat crosses your path. A lot of black cats find themselves in harmon friday the 13th. Songs about the luck or unlucky is the theme of the day. Sal loves getting your requests. Lets check weather and traffic for you now. Steve paulson, will we get luck were wri this weekend sth lucky this weekend . With rain, yes. Strictly weather. Strictly weather speaking. Go to the map. [ applause ] yes we will, rain sunday morning. I had a black cat once, his name was stratus quo. Tough as nails. No bad luck with him. A little fog out there, not a lot, but still a little hovering around. George from el cerrito, i havent heard from you. Usually he says i have fog. Sunny today after the patchy fog. A little warmer. Nice saturday, fog and clouds starting to circle the wagons. Rain returns late, late saturday sunday, into sunday morning. Should end around 10 in the morning, but then a cold, showery, breezy pattern kicks in. The record high is 80 back in 1933. 40s on the temps or 30s, did have a few upper 40s and 50s this morning. We were rounding a little warmer. Everything looks like for the sierra today. The cloud cover is working its way towards us. Look at this the fech of moisture, pummeling the pacific northwest. That will be our front as it slides down. I think there will be pretty dp good rain north of santa rosa, three quarters to an inch south of that, about a quarter to half for other areas southward. 60s today with sunshine and upper 60s to near 70s santa rosa and santa cruz. 8 33, sal. Things Getting Better . They are Getting Better. People who have the luxury of watching us for a little longer will get a better commute, unless something happens, obviously. Traffic is not too bad, Getting Better. Especially approaching from interstate 880 and trying to get to the oakland toll plaza. 101 in San Francisco, thats improved as well. Northbound 101 actually looks good all the way from burlingame. Not a bad one on 280 or 101. San jose remnants of the morning commute, 85 slow at 87, 280 at 17 and 101 at 880, but those are beginning to improve. Thank you, sal. The all goes well, a large if all goes wall, a large piece of the bay bridge will be blown to smither eenz. It will only take a couple seconds, but planning it for years. Brian flores is on Treasure Island. Reporter the hope is it wont impact traffic too badly tomorrow morning and instead just be a major inconvenience. To answer your question, dave, its only going to take about six seconds, the implosion. Only about 15 minute delays. Live on Treasure Island. To my left, perhaps half a while from where the planned implosion is scheduled to take place. Cranes out, couple boats out in, scheduled to take place tomorrow morning at roughly 7 in the morning. This was supposed to take place last week, but there was an issue with the pablging that carried packaging that carried the ordnance. Earlier there were signs saying the bay bridge will be closed from 7 to 8 a. M. , but the spokesperson says thats not entirely accurate. If all goes as planned, it should only take about 15 minutes from beginning to end. Chp will be out in force again tomorrow for the closure on the bridge and even enforcing boaters from getting too close in the water. What were doing is going to the least impact to the environment, whether youre talking about the fish, maam als, water. Every aspect of wildlife and the environment has been considered. Reporter now, officials also say this wont be anything like you see, for example, a vegas Hotel Implosion that youll see on land. In fact, the implosion will be mostly underwater. The best way to see anything of this implosion is to actually stay home, go on the internet. They installed a camera under the water and that will stream it live on the internet. As we take it back out here live, crews putting on the finishing touches today, likely into tomorrow morning. There is a lot at stake. Several people are going to be out in the water, even mental groups included environmental groups included in that. If this turns out to be a success, you could see another project like this happening on other portions of the bay bridge as well in the future. Brian, when you spoke with the spokeswoman earlier, she said if there is a maamal in the area, even Something Like that, a single maamal, that might delay the implosion. Yes. The timing is also key. We talk about the environmental impact. Talking with the experts they talk to, they say around this time is around the perfect time for this. They say a lot of the birds that are typically here have migrated south. Theyre trying to also say that there is going to be a least impact in terms of the sea maam als in the water as well. There is going to be plenty of p people in the water, a lot of environmental people out here, sea life experts as well. Theyre going to be on boats in the Water Monitoring that. If there is any instance of anything going wrong, theyre going to stop it then and there and delay it. By the way, if it doesnt go as planned at 7, the next window of opportunity is 1 00 in the afternoon, certainly would have a bigger impact on traffic for the saturday commute. Right. The earlier the better. Brian, thank you. Time 8 37. Major San Francisco street closure is going to last all weekend. Section of van ness is shut down for construction. Christein kafton has been on the road in San Francisco all morning for us, doing a great job of showing us the work thats being done and good ways to get around it. Reporter yeah. I tell you since weve taken this ride about four or five times now, we have a little perspective on the morning commute. Its definitely going a lot slower now than it did before and that stands to reason. Were getting closer to 9 00 when a lot of folks show up to work. This can give you perspective on what the traffic is like as we approach the construction at post and van ness. The detours start several blocks in either direction where theyre trying to funnel as many drivers off of the road as possible. This means delays for a lot of people going through the area. Crews are working to divert traffic on to the side streets as early as possible so they dont bottleneck when they reach post or geary where the street is completely closed off. We have video that we shot this morning of the closure on van ness. On either side, you can see what ive been calling a virtual ghost town. Crews are working to divert as much traffic off van ness before they get to the closures. Muni and emergency vehicles are allowed to pass through. The actual work is between post and geary. Workers are removing the temporary tunnel structure that had been in place as crews work on the permanent tunnel. We talked with the Construction Company and they say so far the project is on schedule. They want drivers to leave extra time to make sure they can make their way past this major project. Right on schedule this morning. Things worked out nicely so far. Checked the detour. The detour is enacted. We havent had to process all of our relief valves yet. The traffic isnt that heavy. But we expect heavier traffic this morning between 8 and 9 00. Reporter while the work is going on underground, traffic will be detoured for several blocks north and south. Theyre trying to get traffic off van ness and on to the side streets. Northbound traffic diverted on to franklin. Southbound on to gaw. The work, again, scheduled to run through sunday night and should be wrapped up in time for the monday morning commute. Coming back to our live video so you can get a sense of what this is like. Were at van ness and bush right now. You can see there are emergency vehicles here, dpw trying to get people off of van ness. Were coming up to the actual closure here. You can see how it narrows down and how traffic is being pushed on to the side lanes. As you can imagine, anytime that happens, it makes for delays for people getting through the area. Christein kafton, thank you for the update and for showing it so well. Thank you. Time 8 41. Hundreds of uc Berkeley Students took part in a nationwide rally called the million student march. Theyre demanding free tuition to public universities and colleges, a 15 minimum wage to campus employees and all student debt eliminated. The students held up posters with their student loan amounts. In order to, like, do what we need to do in society and in order to be able to provide forour people, we have to be able to support ourselves and we cant do that if were in debt for the rest of our lives.
