And that set them off and they vowed to get revenge no matter what. Investigators say that a series of unthinkable acts happened here and robert banks, a known drug dealer, was the target. They kicked him, they strangled him with a cord, they beat him with a pipe. With their fists, they beat him with a stick. He was assaulted. I think he is innocent. Why . Because i dont think he would do anything to hurt anybody. Investigators say that they have confessed and are behind bars because banks is dead. They say banks invited a woman to get high. She said she was raped. Their friend, brutalized and killed banks and burned his body. They called their father brian johnson, senior, he dumped the body in the green swamp where it was discovered by a couple in their jeep. There is a lot of evidence against them. Confessions and the photos they took with their cell phones of the body which they used for bragging rights. That helps when you are going around showing pictures saying dont worry about
Francisco right now. Temperatures mild into livermore at 67 degrees. 60 now in San Francisco. And 61 in san jose. This afternoon, getting hot inland. 99 livermore. 96 fairfield.

There since 4 00 this morning. Well start off kcbs traffic once again with chopper pictures where big rig tow trucks have just arrived on scene. This is in the eastbound direction. Around 4 00 this morning, when this accident happened, west 580 at versus ceo, the big rig overturned and right there, the trailer ended up in the eastbound direction. Now, the westbound commute most of the lanes are now open but it is still backed up through the Altamont Pass and the chp hasnt issued an estimate as to when they hope to have this trailer cleared from lanes. So expect delays as well for that eastbound direction along 580. Now, we have better news for San Franciscos muni. Power has been restored on the muni metro line. There may be some delays still but Train Service has been restored in San Francisco between the castro station and the embarcadero. So better news for muni, the bay bridge commute. We are looking at delays now leaving oakland heading into the city. But traffic is backed up now f
Im sue herrera filling in for susie gharib. Positive news in the u. S. , investors focussing on europes economy and conflicts in iraq, tensions between russia and the west over ukraine could threaten europes economy and with italy officially in recession, that set a bad tone and then reports surfaced that the u.

In what is widely interpreted as a flight to safety, the yield on the u. S. Tenyear note closed at the lowest level this year. The closing yield of 2. 41 is the lowest since june of 2013. Ger
