Now here at rancho catadi high, that memorial wrapped up 30 minutes ago, while it is extremely difficult for a school to open up its campus just a day after a tragedy, this is almost too much for this school to bear. One student killed, two others injured when a drive home took a devastating turn. The chp says that speed was the main factor in that deadly rollover crash last night. Speed is the thing that is going to kill you in a crash. You need to slow down, avoid going over the speed limits. The speed limit is 45 miles per hour, but neighbors say people often fly down the road. The chp estimates that the driver was going 50 to 55 miles an hour. That may not sound like a lot over the speed limit, but the chp says even going a little faster on such a bumpy road is very dangerous. According to recent cdc data, the death rate among male drivers and passengers age 16 to 19 is twice as high as that of their female counterparts. The cdc also says the risk goes up when teenagers drive with other teenagers, and the risk goes up further with each additional passenger. The risk of crash is particularly high among teens who have just gotten their license. A fire is thought to have started at a homeless encampment. Smoke from the fire slowed traffic on highway 80. The University Avenue offramp was briefly closed. A homeless man had to be rescued by being pulled through a fence. He suffered only minor injuries. The fire was under control within about 20 minutes. A live noise, and a man seen running triggered a lockdown this afternoon at San Francisco general hospital. To one person it sounded like a gunshot, but it turned out to be a false alarm. San Francisco Police responded in force, and the hospital ordered everyone to shelter in place. It happened about 12 45 this afternoon. A search turned up nothing, and no one was hurt. The all clear was given about an hour later. Developing news now, where a second threat against a school in less than a week has prompt the heightened Police Presence at all schools in one east bay town. Danville police say they will be on School Campuses throughout the town tomorrow after graffiti was found containing a threatening message. Ktvus Ken Pritchett is live from baldwin elementary school, which was the target of this latest threat. Reporter the principal here at baldwin put a letter out, or sent a letter out, informing them about graffiti found on the campus, on a wall that contained a threat to harm people. Its apparently a copycat of one of several copycats of messages. One that was originally found near charlottewood middle school last week. The question is, is this threat real . Is it genuine . Of that, there is no proof. But police are taking it seriously. Tonight after a Little League game at charlotte middle school, we found several parents who heard about it. Steve lincoln says the kids are talking about it. Some mild concern. It sounds like it could be just a prank, or something more serious. Reporter it is a message found painted on this creek rock. Charlotte wood principal sent out this letter to parents saying what it read. Quote, i will kill five people on 5814. The message made no reference to the school or students. We received some additional threats that were either painted, or markerred on walls at other locations.

Mr. President , thank you for having me. Reporter after that quick greeting, following a full day of briefings, i asked president obama about our drought. The history of water in california obviously has always been complicated. Heres what we know.

If we dont, then were going to have significant problems. Economically and environmentally. Reporter the president views solutions to drought conditions, which are predicting to worsen in the government report in two parts. Short term, and long term. I wanted to know his thoughts on Governor Brown relaxing Water Quality standards, because of the reducing supplies. Whats happened is, in the short term, weve worked closely with the state regulators to find ways to loosen up some of the regulations in order to deal with an emergency situation. But thats not a long term solution, and Governor Brown understands that. We understand that. Reporter the president told me he is hoping for collaboration, and admits Financial Investment may be necessary. Were going to have to think much more systematically about how water is used. And that involves not just california, were going to have to have conversations between california, colorado, utah, nevada, all of those western states are going to have to be in a conversation. Some of it may require new infrastructure, but if we continue to see a situation in which, you know, the sierra nevadas arent getting water, the rockies arent getting water, youre not seeing the same kinds of snowpacks, or when precipitation does come, it comes much more quickly, which means that it dissipates more quickly, in those situations, were going to have greater and greater water scarcity, and thats going to have an economic impact, because so much of californias economy depends on water. Reporter president obama calls Climate Change one of the defining issues of our generation. Were going to put more detailed information on ktvu. Com. Right now, were going to talk a little more about our weather. Weve got a system offshore thats going to bring us a few more clouds, and maybe a sprinkle tomorrow.
