Rapidly. Making a strong push to the north. If you dont have the fog, you can feel the cool temps. Most are in the upper 50s and 60s. There is a breeze behind that. That will pick up later on. Half moon bay and brentwood are the same temperature so you know it is close. A little cooler for atherton. Los altos is 59 and so is belmont. A lot of gray will peel back slowly for some and give way to a pattern where were warmer each day. All right, sal. 7 01. So far just the usual slow or something new. Yeah. Theres usually a lot of slow traffic approaching the bay bridge this morning, steve. No different today. We have traffic on the east shore freeway that will be backed up this morning through the richmond area getting out into el cerrito and berkeley. Although it is not unusual, it is slow here in this area. And when you get to the toll plaza, it is about a 20, maybe 25minute delay depending which lane youre in and if youre using fast track or not. The carpool lanes look good. No trouble on the bridge. This is a look at 880. It hasnt filled in yet. You can jump ahead of most of the crowd coming in. We have a lot of slow traffic on highway 4. Westbound highway 4 coming up from about the pittsburgh exits all the way through concord and 680 is getting slow in Pleasant Hill. Again, pretty pleased with the lack of major crashes out there. Weve had some minor fender benders. Right now we have a pretty decent commute here. 7 02. Back to the desk. A developing story in the east bay. A second shooting on interstate 880 this week. The latest shooting happened near the highway 92 interchange. Alex savidge is live in hayward now with what authorities are telling us this morning. And apparently not much, right, alex. Reporter yeah. It doesnt appear that anyone was hurt in this latest freeway shooting. That is according to the chp. Shots were fired along the northbound side of the freeway overnight just north of jackson street in hayward. As you can clearly see, all lanes of the freeway are back open following this investigation overnight. We know the chp responded out here this morning. They had to shut down the northbound lanes to gather evidence here. And traffic was diverted off the freeway. At this point, the chp is not offering any more information to us on who was shooting at who in this case or what the motive may have been. But, again, they do not believe that anybody was hit by the gunfire. Now, this latest shooting comes after another freeway shooting earlier this week also along interstate 880, about five miles up the road in san leandro. This was the scene on monday morning, when a driver was shot in the head and critically injured after a car to car shooting. Investigators still searching for whoever opened fire in that case on monday. And obviously we dont know if theres any connection between mondays shooting and the one that happened overnight. But, again, as we bring you back out here live, shots were fired according to the chp along the northbound lanes of 880 here in hayward, just north of jackson street. At some point overnight, the freeway was shut down for a time to investigate exactly what happened. All the lanes now back open. The chp stresses that they do not believe that anybody was hurt in this shooting. Send it back to you guys. Alex, this was the case that we saw earlier this week, north of where you are on southbound 880. Authorities say there are no freeway cameras there. I dont suppose that is the case where you are. I dont get a sense there are cameras where youre standing either. Reporter i dont believe so. Yeah. Reporter to be honest, im not sure. Im not certain about that. All right. Thank you, alex. Thank you, alex. The time now is 7 04. Happening today, a Memorial Service will be held for Heather Heyer. She is the 32yearold woman killed in charlottesville last saturday.

This comes after scaramucci was let go after less than two weeks on the job. The president is hoping to focus on the domestic agenda again. He cant seem to escape controversy. His latest remarks have divided some in his owe party. Reporter President Trump is not one to distance himself from controversy. He is more or less now sticking with his original statement in the aftermath of the clashes in charlottesville. Does anybody you have an infrastructure. Reporter President Trump hoped to talk about infrastructure and had a prop ready to drive home a point. But he was almost immediately questioned about weekend violence in charlottesville, virginia and he reverted back to his original stance, both sides were culpable. What about the altleft that came charging at the as you say altright . Do they have any semblance of guilt. Reporter the statement was quickly denounced by trump critics on the left and divided some on the right. What trump did today was a moral disgrace. We have to be honest about the evil of racism and also honest about the evil of a far left that is trying to tear down both history and intimidate free speech in the country. Reporter it comes as activists on the left toppled a civil war statue in north carolina. And others are being targeted. To that the president says where does it end . Was George Washington a slave owner . So will George Washington lose his status . Are we going to take down excuse me. Are we going to take down are we going to take down statues of George Washington . What about thomas jefferson. Do you like him. Reporter at the same time the administration is struggling to get back on track with democrats trying to pressure the president to fire steve bannon seen as an ally of the altright. The president offered luke warm support for bannon yesterday amid speculation that he is on his way out. In washington, doug luzader, fox news. There is growing fear that the two altright rallies set for San Francisco and berkeley at the end of the month could turn into another charlottesville here in the bay area. San Francisco City leaders are asking the National Parks service to rescind a permit to the group. They took part in a contentious demonstration in seattle this past weekend. The permit that was issued before virginia should be re evaluated and revoked. We are not welcoming this group into San Francisco to promote hate. And we think that the National Park service, without adequate evaluation and conditions, would do just that and would then i think increase opportunities for violence. Patriot prayer rejects accusations that it is a White Supremacy gathering. It says the rally will include africanamerican and a transgender woman. A separate right wing group will rally on august 27th at berkeley. Thats where supporters and opponents of President Trump clashed back in march.

Spencer helped to lead the rally in charlottesville over the weekend. He was supposed to speak on the uf campus on september the 12th. The president of the University Says an assessment was made and this follows a decision by a texas a m cancellation of a similar event on september 11th. This comes as the bay area is preparing for rallies to be held august the 26th and august 27th at Civic Center Park in berkeley.

As a matter of fact, some commutes are getting even slower now. Heading up to the peninsula, this traffic is moderate. Theres a lot of gray out there. Temperatures are slow to recover.

It will define how Law Enforcement can use technology to gather evidence in cases. It is 7 14. Students and staff at a north bay college have been warned about what to do if they encounter a rattlesnake on cam approximates. A man was bitten on the campus on saturday in novato. The man stepped on the snake while in a campus garden, bitten on the foot. He was rushed to the hospital where he was treated and stabilized. He is expected to be okay. Livermore talking to a park ranger about rattlesnakes and how the weather and the drought affects them. Good to be on alert. Sal castaneda, you were going to say. Keep your eyes open. Absolutely. Watch your feet. Yeah. Two close encounters, sal. When you work in the news business, you realize there are a lot of things to watch out for. Snakes is one of them. Cars too. Cars too. Exactly. Frank and gasia, good morning. Were going to start off with Contra Costa County this time and show you slow traffic here in Contra Costa County as we look at highway 4 through pittsburgh and bay point and concord. It is a long line of slow traffic which is not surprising. Then slowing from Pleasant Hill to walnut creek. If you look at the bottom of the map where it says walnut creek, highway 24 looks good to the tunnel. Here it is, not a bad commute driving over to the tunet and the oakland side. The only people going to the bay bridge at that point, you will see a 25minute delay at the bay bridge toll plaza. We havent had any crashes reported on the bridge between oakland and San Francisco. Were also looking at the san mateo bridge. Slowing on the approach. And its crowded on the way to the peninsula. And by the way, when you get over to highway 101, we dont have any accidents reported on 101 between 92 and the airport exits in san bruno. And this is a live look at northbound 280. Southbound commute has been relatively quiet. Right now it doesnt look bad getting up to highway 17. At 7 16, lets bring in steve. Pay attention on this tweet. You will know. Okay. Our good friend antonio, now he is joe cool here. Good morning on the first day of sophomore year. Starting out cool and foggy 58. That would be archbishop high school. I know that school. I bet you do. I do know the school. It is my alma mater. I love that school. Go, anthony. There you go, anthony. Antonio. Antonio with the sunglasses on. Daly city and just about everybody else. I cant find many breaks. Sfo says partly cloudy. That is probably one sucker hole there. Menlo park a little chill in the morning. 51. Moss beach are 59. Big difference there. 55 redwood city. 55 up in the los altos hills. San francisco, 65 57. 90 the record high two years ago. What . Yes, two years ago it was 90. Temperatures today will be just a little bit warmer inland than yesterday. We have been way below. 70s and 60s. Inland you will find 80s. You have to go far inland to find the 90s. Ukiah and clearlake, but thats about it. Low clouds and fog making a strong push again today. We start off just about everybody says cloudy to mostly cloudy. And it will be another day where temperatures struggle to really warm up that much. They will still be below average. 55 to about 61 or 62 covers it. It doesnt matter if it is north or south or east or west. Palo alto, 59. San rafael, 56. 60 in santa clara. Santa cruz at 58. 56 your morning trifecta in scotts valley. Cupertino is in there as well. Low cloud deck will give way to sunshine. It may be a slow process for some. Around lake tahoe, 51. State line at 51. Afternoon thunderstorms. They tend to kind of be a little to the north or around lake tahoe. Favoring nevada side. Also up in the northeast california, little spins in the atmosphere. That triggers that and keeps the fog machine cranking right along. Another day where temperatures stay below average. Certainly coast and bay. Inland is not that yet. It is warmer and the breeze will pick up. Slightly below average temps. You should see upper 80s for some to low to mid80s. Up towards ukiah and clearlake, back into the 90s. A brief break on monday and tuesday. 60s and 70s around the bay. 80s for some inland after 84 in antioch yesterday. 70s on the peninsula. Gasia, it looks warmer inland over the next few days. Thank you, steve. San Francisco Police are investigating the theft of more than a Million Dollars in jewelry from a limousine parked at ocean beach. The limo was being rented by a part owner of the golden state warriors. They were seeing their son michael perform with his band at outside lands in Golden Gate Park on sunday. It was parked at the great highway when it was broken into. A witness saw a suspect vehicle driving off and took a photo of the car. A similar car was spotted monday morning. When police tried to stop the driver, the car sped off. It crashed and Police Arrested two of the four people inside of the car. The other two ran off. Police will only say theyre following up on the case and would not say if any of the stolen jewelry has been recovered. Saving lives with a controversial drug. Coming up, how Campbell Police are stopping opioid overdoses. All of the movies that you want to see in the theater for 10 a month. Sounds like a good deal, huh . Maybe too good of a deal. How the pass is changing customers habits. Wells fargo is about to make history and golden sacks is talking about a promising new drug. Pam cook is back with your money business report. Pam, take it away. Goldman sachs talking about biogen based in massachusetts. Analysts are optimistic about the alzheimers drug it is working on. The stock shot straight up this morning. And so did the indexes as well. Part of that is on good retail numbers. Retail report in general coming in pretty good in july. In fact, the best report since december of last year. But across the board, the dow, the nasdaq and the s p 500 are all up right around a quarter of a percent this morning. Today is the first day of new trade talks between the u. S. , mexico and canada. We are keeping an eye on this. During the president ial campaign of course mr. Trump called current nafta agreement the worst trade deal in history. The u. S. Has never tried to overhaul a major trade agreement before. Whatever possible agreement comes out of the talks would still need approval by congress. But we will be watching those talks throughout the day. The next chair of San Francisco based wells fargo will make wall street history. Elizabeth duke will become chair woman on january 1st. She will be the first woman to serve chair of a major u. S. Bank. She was on the board of governors from 2008 until 2013. She will replace Steven Sanger who barely kept his seat on the board after wells fargo scandal became public knowledge. President trump is tweeting about amazon this morning. The president says, quote, amazon is doing great damage to tax paying retailers, towns, cities and states throughout the u. S. Are being hurt. Many jobs being lost. Shares of amazon down about. 7 this morning. Thats after the president s tweet. Amazon has said that it has more than 50,000 job openings across the United States to helpful fill customer orders and earlier this month hosted multiple job fairs to fill them. Well, the nations largest Movie Theater chain, amc, getting ready to sue movie pass. The company run by one of the founders of netflix is letting customers see unlimited movies for 10 a month. Subscribers are attending twice as many movies as they used to. It could hurt the industry because of the low price. They are working to stop the service in theaters calling the 10 monthly pass plan unsustainable. Very interesting plan though. And i think probably in reaction to the fact that not very many people are going to the Movie Theaters. The numbers were way down this summer. Right. You have netflix and hbo and on demand, so many things competing. It is interesting. Try to fill try to fill the seats would benefit everybody. 10 a month sounds sort of ridiculously low. It is like 15 for one movie. But it might bring people who wouldnt normally buy a ticket to the thats rights. You go in and there are seven people seeing a fairly new movie. That is not much revenue. Thank you, pam. Coming up next, neighbors in a south bay Mobile Home Park reacted quickly to a fire but the flames were faster. Tragic results that left many of the people stuck. Changes are coming to barts Early Morning schedule. The question is how soon will we know about the idea for trains an hour later at 5 00 a. M. Instead of 4 00 a. M. And who it will impact. It is slow in some areas out there. As a matter of fact, were looking at the san mateo bridge. That is still slow. However, we have seen some improvement if you feel like waiting around, it may improve even more as we get closer to 8 00. I doubt the weather improves by 8 00 for coast and bay. Maybe inland because theres a pretty good fog bank. It looks like another day of below average temp. A little bit warmer for some. 7 29 on a gorgeous morning. Im gasia mikaelian. And good morning, everyone. Frank mallicoat on board. Dave clark enjoying a holiday. We will throw it over to weather and find out how the foggy little morning will shape up today. Really foggy. Fogust as they say on the coast. Also inland. Not just the coast and bay. One key factor here, if youre over on the coast, you probably woke up this morning and said it is a little warmer. It is a south southeast breeze on parts of the santa cruz ask san mateo coast. That has pushed temperatures even into the city up from about 57 to 59 and 60. Which isnt a big deal but it is noticeable. If youre wondering what is going on, thats it. 60s, 70s and 80s inland today. Today we will get upper 70s to low to mid80s. You have to go far inland to find 90s or far to the north. Clouds and fog all over the pacific. Thunderstorm activity over the Sierra Nevada will give way to a sunny but breezy day. 50s and 60s on the temps. They have been stuck due to the cloud cover here. 56 a little cooler in cupertino. Low clouds and then sun. Highs today will be even around lake tahoe in the 40s and 50s. Statewide as we had the system come in on monday. Look for 60s and 70s and a few 80s popping back up. Slightly below average. Sal, what have you got. Bad hair day. At least i have hair, right. We have slow traffic on the Richmond Bridge as we come across towards the span here. It is a little slow. However it is fitting within the realm of the normal slow traffic as you drive through. No major issues. Wondering why that is up here. Take my maps in the control room, please. I have a problem. There we go. The traffic here is going to be slow approaching the Richmond Bridge. No major issues. If you are driving over to marin, you will see slowing also at central san rafael, which is within the normal range. 29minute drive between the macarthur maze and the carquinez bridge. We will see more traffic next week as the fall driving pattern starts establishing it elf is. This is a look at the bay bridge toll plaza. This is about a 20minute delay before you make it on to the span. And interstate 880 is finally beginning to see a little bit of slow traffic approaching hyde street making it to downtown oakland. Highway 4 is still slow. 680 is slow out of pleasanton. In the south bay, 101 is the slowest and so is 85 getting into the west valley. At 7 32, back to the desk. Some bart Board Members are talking about starting bart later so maintenance can be done. Allie rasmus is live at the orinda bart station with more on the idea of starting bart trains running at 5 00 instead of 4 00 a. M. Good morning. Reporter well, good morning. Bart is a 45yearold system in need of maintenance and upgrades. The Transit Agency has the money to do the work after voters approved a 3 and a half billion dollars bond measure. Now the agency is trying to figure out when they can do some of that Maintenance Work. We know that bart is already going to be starting trains later next summer, at 5 00 a. M. Instead of 4 00 a. M. This is the summer of 2018 so they can do seismic updates to the transbay tube. That will definitely happen. At a meeting yesterday, some Board Members brought up the idea of starting later start time in the beginning of 2018, earlier in the year, in order to do some Maintenance Work systemwide. Even if bart provides a bus bridge or other alternatives, and they are studying ways to alleviate the pain that it would cause commuters, commuters say it is a huge inconvenience to have the trains start an hour later. The train is already crowded as it is. So i think it will really be a bad commute for a lot of people. It is only fivecar trains. If they think about later, its going to be like sardines. S. Reporter now, there are about 2400 commuter thats ride bart between the hours of 4 00 a. M. And 5 00 a. M. Changing the schedule earlier systemwide would have an impact on them. It is still just an idea at this point that one of the Board Members floated at a Sub Committee meeting yesterday. A schedule change like this would require the full vote of the full bart board. And so that is still in the discussion phases and just an idea that theyre throwing out there right now. Back to you guys. Allie, thank you. It is 7 34. San jose fire investigators are looking for the cause of a fire that claimed the lives of a man and two children. Cell phone video of the fire shows tall flames shooting out of the home at the golden wheel Mobile Home Park. Fire crews arriving within ten minutes of the first call. The front of the house had already clapped. An older man, one of the children were found right away. But it took hours to find the second child inside. Neighbors tried to help the people inside when the flames first broke out. I came out my front door and looked in the back. The flames were coming out all of the windows. I was in panic and i went back there. Like i said, other neighbors were trying to bust in the door, throwing rocks, trying to yell in, is anybody in there . We dont know if there was an accidental accelerate that accelerated the fire but it burned very quick. The victims names have not been released but neighbors say the family who lived in the mobile home are vietnamese and it included three generations. A miscalculation may have led to the release of a man who police say later robbed and killed a film scout at twin peaks. Mims is accused of shooting and killing ed french and stealing his camera one month ago. Mims was released five days earlier on a gun charge. The judge released him using Public Safety assessment. It uses a color coded chart that factors in prior criminal history. We learned that mims should not have been eligible to be released because a prior incarceration was not added into the calculation determining his release. Somebody has to be held accountable for making that error. Somebody made a mistake. One other issue is the process itself. It takes the Human Element out of it. And its just numbers. Under the psa which was designed by a criminal justice foundation, probation is not factored into a score. And the scores of convicted felons are not affected if they carry a gun, only if they use it. The sheriff is calling a meeting next week with Law Enforcement agents to discuss what improvements can be made to the system. Father of an oakland musician killed last week is i see havitying the bay area, meeting the friends he didnt know his son had. [music] 40yearold david de poreus died when somebody stolesa laptop. It was filled with the music that he had written and recorded. He chased down the man and was dragged by the getaway car. He died of injuries later. Now his father says that he is feeling the generosity and all of the support of the community his son had built right here in the bay area. It is terribly sad. But it is also it is terribly, terribly touching and it is touching because the community that i never knew existed, theyre there supporting my son. Those friends are raising money now to create an anthology of davids music. His father says Crime Stoppers is offering a 15,000 reward for information leading to the person who killed his son. He is hoping that somebody will step forward with information soon. Now to the north bay where Novato Police are asking for help in identifying three men who may have installed a suspicious device on a machine in a gas station. The clerk found the device after the three men were in the store. Two of the suspects are described as men in their 20s with thin builds and short black hair. One suspect has a small mustache and a limp. Campbell police have administered a drug to save the life of a heroin user for the first time. Officers were called to the walgreens on campbell avenue august the 3rd. Thats where they found a 22 yearold man in a bathroom stall who had apparently suffered an opioid overdose. Thats when officers pulled out the nasal spray narcan. Within ten seconds, that man went from unresponsive to talking to those officers. Hose officers. In this case, the mans life was saved because of the narcan. And while there arent overdoses very frequently in campbell, this is just another tool that officers have in saving lives. Back in march, Campbell Police became one of the first departments in Santa Clara County to be trained to recognize an opioid overdose and use the narcan. States attorney general claims purdue tell doctors that patients do not get addicted to the painkilling medication. This follows suits filed by the cities of cincinatti and birmingham, alabama. A texas bathroom bill failed for a second time when the state legislator ended a special session without voting on the measure. This is the second time that the bill failed in texas. It would be bad for the states image and would hurt its economy. It would have required people to use bathrooms that match the sex on their birth certificate as opposed to gender identity. It is the first day of school for hundreds of children in san jose. Gender neutral bathrooms will be on campuses for the first time. Those are open to all gender identities including male, female, transgender and students with physical needs. Some changes to the dress code are also new this year. It will no longer ban specific items of clothing such as short shorts at the High School Level. They require clothing to be suitable and cover the chest, torso and undergarments. Lyft is teaming up to make the back to school process easier tore children and families. They will deliver more than 3500 backpacks filled with School Supplies to 67 oakland schools. This is the second year that the two organizations are teaming up to bring students in oakland the tools they need. It is a proud moment when your little one walks in with a brandnew backpack. Yeah. Back to school. Hard to believe. Yeah. Another shooting on a bay area freeway. Coming up in the 8 00 hour, where the latest incident happened last night and the total number of shootings in the past couple of years. Also up next, canceling recess. What schools in a number of districts are keeping students inside this coming monday instead of letting them out to catch a bit of history. The commute is shifting a little bit. Some areas are improving. Others are getting more crowded. We will give you another update on the east bay commute when we come back. Pretty good fog bank out there. Some breaks in the clouds. It should burn off a little sooner for a slight warmup. Coast and bay, there it is, tough to warm up. People love my breakfast burritos. And my french fries. Wait what if i put them together . a burrito stuffed with scrambled eggs, creamy guacamole, bacon and crispy french fries. Ill call it the california breakfast burrito boom. Someone got that, right . Scrambled eggs. Guacamole. Bacon. French fries. Youll call it the california breakfast burrito. Boom. Good work everyone. Another winner. Introducing my New California breakfast burrito. Only at jack in the box. Award winning interface. Award winning design. Award winning engine. The volvo xc90. The most awarded luxury suv of the century. This august visit your local volvo dealer to receive sommar savings of up to 4,500. Welcome back. It is 7 43. Many bart riders are questioning safety on bart after a recent rise in crime. Now the Transit Agency is looking to beef up the police force. They are understaffed by 39 officers. The agency is offers 10,000 bonuses to any experienced officers that might want to join the bart police force. The agency will advertise on trains and at community colleges. Oftentimes we will have officers working on overtime and longer hours. So it is important for us to get up to staff so we can continue to be that presence on the trains. Also to increase our presence as well. Many passengers say bart definitely needs more officers. Statistics show Violent Crime up some 41 for the first half of this year on bart. And property crime is up some 14 . Munis board of directors approved a plan to raise 21 billion. The money would go towards improving facilities over the next 20 years. Money would pay for improvements in the 19th avenue ocean view subway, along with the extension of the third street line to fishermans wharf. Even though the funding is proved, it is up to the city to come up with where the money will come from. The San Ramon School district is trying to eliminate traffic jams around the high school and middle schools. It will have flexible scheduling for the first classes of the day. Staggered times. This year the middle school will use the same idea with classes starting at 7 53 for some students and 8 40 for others. The district says that will allow families to build School Schedules around other activities and eliminate the crush that i see every day at pickup and dropoff. If the program is successful, it could spread to other schools in the district. A lot of kids wont be allowed to go outside next monday morning to watch the Solar Eclipse. A number of School Districts wont let students out for recess during the eclipse because of potential harm to kids that may look at the sun. A district sent out a letter saying the decision was made after consulting the districts physician. Experts recommend viewing the eclipse through specially made glasses to prevent eye damage. We have a huge show planned for you on the eclipse day. We will have it completely covered close to 11 00. You will be on an airplane. I will be in portland. Early monday morning, were going out on a plane and were going to follow the eclipse coming back to the coast. So youre going to see it as it happening. Yes. Wow. It will be cool. Sal castaneda, i know not only are you a traffic expert, youre a photography expert as well. Thats root. You have a special filter for your camera. You and i were talking about this. Your husband is a photographer too. And gasia said something really insightful to me yesterday. Enjoy it. Dont try to be worried about taking a picture. Just watch it with your eyes. Really good advice. This is a look at 80 westbound from the carquinez bridge to the macarthur maze. 32minute drive. Still in the grand scheme of things, this is not a very slow commute for this time of the morning. I have a feeling it will start ticking upward, the drive time is next week as more schools go back to school. And northbound eat eight is finally beginning to slow. It slows right here in front of the coliseum area. And it stays slow up to about the brick wall just north of 29th. But, again, not unusual. Highway 4, unfortunately we have slow traffic. And we had a minor accident on highway 4 near the willow pass grade. It didnt turn owed to be a big one. Slow traffic this morning as you drive up to the area. So leaving antioch, i would give yourself an extra 10 or 15 minutes to make your way to concord on highway 4. Or use pass road. Something that steve has been known to use a time or two. That is correct. Then you have to deal with ignacio valley road. Thats right. Im sure one of the right lanes is closed. Just kidding. Thank you, sir.

If youre trying to get across the bay from the east bay to the peninsula, the san mateo bridge traffic is slow. You can see it grinding to a halt after the toll plaza. However, i would still use it over the dumbarton bridge. I prefer it right now because the dumbarton bridge has had a stalled vehicle approaching the toll plaza for a while now. It has been very slow. Not only approaching the stall but also after that stall, heading over to menlo park and east palo alto. That is not a bridge that i would recommend. When you get to the peninsula, there is slow traffic in san mateo both directions. If you see, we talked about this. Southbound 101 is slow and so is northbound 101 right near where they they call the maze. 280 coming out of daly city driving past the boundary line, it gets busy. Then it is stop and go approaching monterey avenue down to the 101 interchange. This is highway 24 in the east bay. You can see that is moderate in la fay e it is 8 03. Back to the desk. We begin with a developing story this morning. Two shootings in two days on interstate 880. The latest happened on the southbound lanes of 880 near highway 92. Alex savidge has been reporting live for us throughout mornings on 2. New information since we saw your last report, alex. Reporter yeah. Were getting new details on this investigation. Good morning to you. We know that the chp is searching for whoever opened fire on a car that had two young people inside of it. The good news were learning from authorities is that neither of the people were seriously hurt in this shooting. It happened at about 10 00 last night in the northbound lanes of 880. The car was driving northbound on agent eight when it was shot at. This was just north of jackson street here in hayward. You can see the freeway is back open after an overnight investigation which did shut down the lanes. Now, when officers first responded to reports of gunfire in this area, they didnt find anything. And as it turns out, the people who had been shot at drove their car to the nearby Hayward Police department after the shots were fired at their car. The victims car was struck by gunfire. The chp though at this point is not saying what the motive may have been for the shooting. We do know this is the second freeway shooting along 880 so far this week. Early on monday morning in san leandro, a driver was shot in the head and critically injured after someone in another car opened fire and then sped off. The search is still on for the shooter in that case. Investigators say that appears to have been a case of road rage. The chp says mondays shooting does not appear to be connected to the shooting that happened last night. And the shooting that happened late last night in hayward is now the 100th freeway shooting here in the bay area in just the past year and a half. We will send it back to you guys. Thank you, alex.

Some bart Board Members have discussed the idea of starting bart trains later systemwide so they can do much needed maintenance. Allie rasmus talked with riders this morning about the idea of starting service at 5 00 in the morning instead of 4 00. Reporter we know one schedule change that is definitely going to happen in summer of 2018. Bart will start running trains at 5 00 a. M. Instead of 4 00 a. M. But at a Sub Committee meeting yesterday one of the Board Members floated the idea of starting it earlier in 2018. The train system could do Maintenance Work systemwide. That is an idea that is still up for discussion. When that schedule change will start. But bart was also talking about providing a bus bridge, also alternatives for commuters impacted by this. Bart estimates there are about 2400 people that take bart trains during the 4 00 a. M. Hour. Commuters we talked to this morning say a later start time on bart will be painfully inconvenient for them. The train is already crowded as it is. I think it will be a bad commute for a lot of people. It is not a ninecar train like it is in the afternoon. It is only a feecar train. If they think about later, its going to be like sardines. Reporter now, changing the schedule later than summer 2018 systemwide is still just an idea. What is driving it is the fact that they have maintenance and upgrades that need to be done. It doesnt give crews a lot of time to do Maintenance Work overnight. That is the idea behind pushing the start time to an hour later in the morning. We will have so tee what comes in the coming weeks. Weve had a couple rough commutes this week, sal. This might be the best one that we have seen all week. Yeah. Pretty moderate.
