live from the cbs bay area studios this is kpix5 news. it's imperative that the bureau explain this issue in question, whatever it is, without any delay. >> tonight hillary clinton is in a face-off with the fbi over a new e-mail investigation. good evening. i'm elizabeth cook. >> i'm ken bastida. just days before the election the feds drop a bombshell. the fbi has reopened the criminal investigation into clinton's e-mail scandal. veronica de la cruz tells us the feds uncovered new e-mails during a sexting investigation. veronica? >> the fbi won't say what's in those e-mails. director james comey admits he doesn't know himself, but the presidential nominee insists that she has nothing to hide. it was nearly four months ago that fbi director james comey cleared hillary clinton of any criminal wrongdoing for using a personal e-mail server while she was secretary of state, but today comey sent a three paragraph letter to congress writing, "agents on an unrelated case had learned of the existence of e-mails that appear to be pertinent to the clinton investigation." >> we are calling on the fbi to release all the information that it has, even director comey noted that this new information may not be significant. so let's get it out. >> cbs news has learned the investigation involved former new york congressman anthony weiner, estranged husband of long time clinton aide huma abedin. the fbi confiscated a laptop the two shared. separately wean -- weiner is under investigation for allegedly sending sexually explicit messages to a 15-year- old girl in north carolina. >> so what he's saying is i may have seen something that may be pertinent. i can't tell you. >> the investigation is the biggest political scandal since watergate and it's everybody's hope that justice at last can be delivered. >> comey did not put a timetable when the updated investigation would be completed. all the fbi will say about these e-mails is they were not from clinton herself. veronica de la cruz, kpix5. >> so why would the fbi drop a bombshell like this so close to the election? kpix5 political reporter melissa caen said they didn't really have a choice. >> the timing is clearly very unfortunate. we saw hillary clinton extremely upset of this -- upset this is happening 11 days before the election, but director comey said if i was accused of holding this information until after the election, then it would be a real scandal and indefensible. >> comey said he also felt obligated to let congress know about the new e-mail since he previously testified that the case was closed. breaking news, there's been another freeway shooting on 580, this time in richmond near marina bay parkway. it happened after 8:00. westbound lanes were briefly shut down. we

estimated about 66 million statewide. >> reporter: 66 million dead trees, the worst in the bark beetle explosion in the foothills where thousands of acres every single pine tree has died. >> pretty much in here it's almost 100% mortality of the ponderosa pine. >> reporter: back in kern county forresters are trying to keep the dead trees from causing another disaster in the form of an explosive

doing it. >> reporter: then there's an even larger price for all of us as utility crews with caltrans race to keep dead trees off the power lines and roadways. as for the future, even some drought relief might make some problems worse. >> it's coursing through the water and landscape. >> reporter: while a healthy rain season would slow the beetles, sudden oak death thrives in moisture. >> it's waiting for the ripe conditions and it will have explosive growth again. >> reporter: it's a statewide catastrophe that has only intensified the debate over how california's forest strategy should evolve, but for tens of millions of trees, the damage is done and recovery will take decades. for some areas the worst may still lie ahead as california tries town tangle a crisis now unfolding across 32 million acres of forest land. >> we keep passing the buck really and it gets harder to have enough resources to solve the problem. >> reporter: wilson walker, kpix5. >> dry out there for how many years and that causes the forest to do what it's doing now try to rejuvenate itself. one year it's bad, four years in a row is a significant problem. bark beetle loves drought. let's hope we can put
