Continues to smolder now in the delta. Its on Kimball Island which can only be reached by boat where the sacramento and san joaquin rivers meet. Anne makovec joins us from antioch within sight of the burning island. Anne. Reporter yeah, the delta here behind me, the fire has been put out. No injuries to report. But firefighters are still watching for hot spots this morning. The fire was out officially at about 9 30 last night. But check out some of this video shot yesterday. Three homes burned in this fire as well as several outbuildings and about 50 acres of land on Kimball Island, which is accessible only by boat. The fire was reported at about 2 30 yesterday afternoon. It started as a small brush fire but spread quickly because of the strong winds. The lack of rain and the unseasonably dry conditions just make the fire conditions just as bad as in the middle of fire season. Reporter firefighters evacuated four people. Others just left in their own boats. There are reports that the f
As you can see here several homes have burned. To the naked eye it doesnt appear the firefighters at this point are making a lot of progress in bringing this fire under control. As the camera pulls out here you can see thats where theyre fighting it, from the water. They have a couple fire boats pouring water on the homes. You get a sense of just how rural this area is. Just a handful of homes on the san joaquin river. Ktvs al lee rasmus is on her way to the scene. As were watching the pictures live from the air were seeing smoke and active orange flames. What strikes me is you see how spotty the flames are . Theyre wildly spread. Thats what you get with a windy day. The fire spreads and hops and jumps. We dont have a lot of information right now. Its interesting to me the fire looks so spread out. When they pull out youll see it. It looks like it was wind whipped. We know it wasnt. The red flag warning is for the hills and northeast bay. This area isnt under a red flag warning. The wi
5. Reporter its byebye bunny. I think this is a sad day in america when a City Council Person can take down a sign for a restaurant and a bar. Reporter this is what the billboard space used to look like. But after several complaints from neighbors and two Oakland City Council members, the ad company decided to put an ad for a concert that happened 10 days ago. Why did the company take it down . Theres the other business hof is best known for, moonlight bunny ranch, aka renowned throttle. Im the big pimp. Reporter several times the company said they were advertising just the restaurant. This bar is a mile away from the actual brothel and it has nothing to do with the brothel. What do you say to that . You know, thats a poor excuse. Reporter schaaf and her team organized neighbors to call the ad company to take it down. He is out of line. Its out of place. He needs to choose to do business somewhere else. Reporter but hof is taking his business somewhere else, to federal court. I have hi
Reporter all right. Another live look. That hot spot they are still dealing with you might be able to make out the charred earth covering a big section of that hillside. We are told it was contained at about 50 acres. No homes were burned. And were told two firefighters were hurt. We dont know how badly. We still dont know how that fire started. Live in san jose, brian webb, kpix 5. About the same time not far away another fire. This one at the los lagos golf course just four miles away. The flames burned through a wooded area near the fifth, too. A lot of smoke from this one, too. No damage to the golf course itself.

What happened. Palo alto police say the man, the driver, is in his 90s. You could hear the table smashing into each other and then people are actually screaming. This witness was there when the car plowed into the cafe in palo alto. The man in his 92s was attempting to Parallel Park in front of the restaurant and accidentally hit the acceleration instead of the brake, thus pushing the car up on to the curb and into the front of the restaurant. Reporter five people were injured, one critically. Weve had one that is critical. We had three that were minor and then one was the walking wounded. The people that had major injuries were transported to stanford hospital. Sky 7 hd caught the driver when he was escorted to another car to be questioned. Police say alcohol was not a factor. This woman had just left her table at the cafe when the accident occurred. She narrowly missed being hit. There was a man with his hip completely displaced, like the war zone. There was another man next to him w
