The countrys top law enforcer now off the case. I have recused myself. Reporter attorney general Jeff Sessions is stepping back from any investigation into russian interference in the election. The move comes after the Justice Department confirms that sessions met with the Russian Ambassador twice during the campaign but sessions says he did nothing wrong. Recusal is not an admission of any wrong doing. Reporter he said his meetings were a perfectly reasonable thing to do. The big issue is that sessions did not disclose these meetings when questioned by congress. I did not have communications with the russians and im unable to comment on it. Reporter for democrats on capitol hill, thats enough to warrant his resignation. The attorney general, the top cop in our country, lied under oath to the American People is grounds for him to resign. Reporter but even members of his own party say at the very least, sessions can no longer work the case. I do think hes going to need to recuse himself

Hell get up in a scissor truck, check out the damage, decide if repairs need to be done immediately or if they can wait. Chp says that a
Truck. Officers say the driver was taken to the hospital to be checked out for a possible broken nose. The hope now is to have these lanes opened up by about noon. Of course, well keep you updated. Reporting live in palo alto, matt keller, abc7 news. We have also been in contact with officials on this. They say caltrans Structural Engineers will work on what happens next. Basically, they tell us that when they get to the scene, thats where matt is, theyre going to be using scissor lifts to look at a closer look at the dang here and look at this video that we have. The engineer will probably knock off some of the loose concrete to check out the extent of the damage, like if any rebar is broken. Best case scenario, the overpass is structurally sound.

No word on how long that emergency process could take. Reggie, natasha, ba
