going through my mind just her being saved and getting back to her and everything being okay. >> the santa clara county sheriff's office is now taking over the investigation. developing news. the oil spill near santa barbara is much worse than initially thought. the pipeline company now says 105,000 gallons of oil spilled on the coast. that's much more than the 21,000 gallons first reported. now, to give you an idea, that's twice as big as the cosco busan spill in 2007 in san francisco bay. the onshore pipeline broke yesterday at refugio state beach. amy johnson reports. >> reporter: the strong smell of oil continues to hover here over the coastline and crews continue to clean up the oil on the beach. the coast guard recovered 6,000 gallons of oil so far. but we have also learned in the worst-case scenario, more than 100,000 gallons may have been spilled. >> we're sorry that this accidental release has happened. >> reporter: plains all american pipeline has admitted it was their

spilled. >> reporter: santa barbara district attorney's office is investigating. d.a. joyce dudley looked at the damage. >> we'll likely be working with the attorney general's office, the u.s. attorney's office, and making a determination as to whether this is a criminal, civil or matter that was simply just an accident. >> reporter: it was just before noon tuesday that the first signs of the oil leak began to emerge. >> once we identified it was our leak it was should down immediately. >> reporter: the oil could be seen in the water and on the sand. a slick totaling about 9 miles in length. crews in white suits began the taxing clean-up while booms and vessels worked on the water clean-up. >> the spilled oil is difficult to contain and collect once it's on the water. therefore, it is likely that there will be some environmental impact including oiled birds and shorelines. >> reporter: refugio state beach was immediately evacuated and has been shut down as well as nearby el capitan. >> we're very aware of how big an impact this is on memorial day weekend and the visitors that are coming. >> reporter: for now, the focus is on the clean-up and saving wildlife affected. it's still not clear what caused the pipeline to leak. in fact plains all american pipeline says it is regularly checked and has shown no signs of weakness. in fact, it was just checked about two weeks ago and the results hadn't even come back yet. reporting at refugio state beach, amy johnson, kpix 5. >> northern california teams took off for santa barbara to help the clean-up effort. a state wildlife team from sacramento flew out this morning. the plan is to help assess the damage and aid the clean-up crews. the group plans to stay as long as they are needed. after months of heated debate, san francisco's catholic schoolteachers are no closer to a contract deal with the archdiocese. in fact, they rallied this afternoon in front of the chancery office calling for a rejection of archbishop cordileone's latest revision of the teacher handbook. it requires strict adherence to the church's teachings on things such as homosexuality and contraception both in and out of the classroom. protestors say the latest draft of the handbook is a little softer in tone but the substance is the same. >> so the good news here is that there has been some changes to this document. so it seems as if the archbishop is willing to listen to a certain degree. we wish he would listen more and really communicate with us more. >> negotiations between the archdiocese and the union are ongoing. now, in a statement today, the archdiocese said, quote, both sides are hopeful that they are closer to resolving the few remaining bargaining issues on which there is disagreement." new at 5:00 a scary moment inside the terminal today at l.a.x. [ screaming ] >> a suspect got tasered right in front of passengers! the man had been uncooperative with tsa officers at a screening checkpoint. the pushed an officer out of the way and ran toward the

fireworks and m-80s goes up in flames in oakland. take a look at the aftermath. west macarthur on-ramp to westbound 580 shut down this afternoon. flames shooting from that black suv and that situation made much worse with the fireworks in the car. crews were able to put out the flames pretty quickly and clean- up is now under way. took most of the day for bart to recover from a shutdown caused by a mechanical problem. the train holdup started during the morning commute with a damaged receiver coil on the tracks. that was at the interchange between west oakland and 12th street stations.

sleep train. ♪ sleep train ♪ ♪ your ticket to a better night's sleep ♪ the phones were ringing off the hook at car dealerships today after word that takata airbag recall has doubled to more than 34 million cars. julie watts reports dealerships can't keep up with the demand. >> reporter: well, dealerships has been ordered not to talk to the media. one dealer said they have had to hire 7 extra people and they had 70 repairs scheduled today alone. but those 70 people are the lucky ones who likely scheduled those appointments weeks if not months ago. most dealers say they can't get the parts. rick slides his seat back as far as he can every time he gets behind the wheel. he is terrified of his recalled takata airbag. >> 18 inches from my face is an explosive device which may or may not be there to save my life. >> reporter: the defective airbags in several makes have been blamed for at least five deaths after sending shrapnel flying into the driver's face and body but many dealers like rick's were saying, they don't have the parts to fix the recall long before takata doubled the number of recalled cars to 34 million. now more than 1 out of every 7 cars on the road may be affected. to find out if your car is one of them, simply enter your v.i.n. number at safercar.gov. only two out of ten on this row were confirmed recalls. nhtsa cautions it could be weeks before manufacturers add all the vin numbers to the recall list that could include most of the cars in this lot. but even after a car is officially recalled, it's unlikely car dealers will have the parts needed to fix it. honda did eventually find the parts to fix rick's car. and it said it would provide a loaner at no cost to others waiting on unavailable parts. but at ford you have to ask. at least in the case of the airbag recalls, it seems being the proverbial squeaky wheel can pay off. now, dealers tell us that insistent customers are often moved to the front of the line. keep in mind they order parts v.i.n. number by v.i.n. number so while they are supposed to take about two weeks to arrive, many are now back ordered indefinitely. takata promised to step up that production of those parts by september. but, you know, they still haven't definitively identified the cause so the fix might not actually work. >> i know a lot of people are frustrated they think should i disable the airbag? >> reporter: look at ehow and google it online. you can find ways to disable your airbag but many say if you disable it you're going to disable other functions. >> sure. >> that you need. so it's you know -- >> don't do that. >> six of one, half dozen of the other. you can check to see if your vehicle is affected on our website, cbssf.com. cbssf.com/recall. well, despite a busted rod, caltrans says its tests show the new bay bridge tower will function as designed. the rod is one of hundreds installed at the base to help the bridge withstand a major earthquake. caltrans noticed it last month during testing

inside the bin laden compound including a bizarre help wanted application for terrorists. what new recruits had to answer before signing up with al qaeda. >> david letterman wraps up his a 33-year television career is ending tonight. the guy who does this. david letterman saying good night to his late show fans. cbs' suzanne marquez joins us live outside the ed sullivan theater with what to expect for this final curtain call. >> reporter: allen, we talked to folks who are at the taping and they had huge smiles on their faces. they said it was really a celebration and just a lot of fun. i don't know how long it will go tonight but it was jam- packed with celebrities, special moments, and tributes to the staff. in the end, it sounds like everybody really feels great about dave's sendoff. david letterman poked his head out the side door of the ed sullivan theater and waved to fans. he finished taping his last show. >> his family was there. he was very emotional. >> reporter: jerry seinfeld, chris rock, jim carrey and tina fey were also part of television history. they helped deliver the final top 10. things they have always wanted to say that david letterman. fans say the whole show was a fitting tribute. >> thank you very much. >> it was exactly what i expected maybe even better. >> reporter: spoiler alert. the last band to play on dave's stage was the foo fighters. he admitted to jane pauley on cbs sunday morning he is nervous about retiring. >> any enormous uprooting change in my life has petrified me. really petrified me. but once i have come through the other side, the reward has been unimaginable. >> reporter: letterman's final appearance in american living rooms will take place in just a few short hours. allen, i'll give you a little teaser of what to expect tonight. you don't want to miss the top 10 list. you're going to see tons of celebrities who are really meaningful to dave. and the musical act, well, they have a very close connection to dave. >> yeah. the foo fighters. now, a lot of people are wondering who the surprised last guests are. you probably don't want to spoil that for us. >> reporter: well, i can tell you some of the names. tina fey, jerry seinfeld, steve martin, those are a few of the names. and they are incorporated into a special segment in the show. >> all right. we'll look forward to that. we're counting it down as you might think. thanks, suzanne. we appreciate it very much. you can of course watch the final episode of dave coming up tonight "the late show" with dave letterman here at 11:35 after the kpix 5 news at 11. the nfl is citing significant progress on plans to move a team to l.a. and that could be bad new for -- for the raiders fans. they got plans on a new stadium in corson and inglewood. the carson stadium would be shared by the raiders and the chargers. >> certainly momentum. there's certainly opportunities. jim, you know, i can't remember the last time we had two facilities that are entitled and being developed. that's a positive development. >> the nfl commissioner said he hasn't heard anything yet from oakland on its plans to keep the raiders. at one point, he even had a laugh at oakland's expense. that part of the story coming up tonight at 6:00. no laughing here. the pilot who landed his gyrocopter on the lawn of the u.s. capitol facing prison time. a grand jury indicted douglas hughes on 6 charges that carry 9.5 years in prison. the florida postal worker exposed a major security gap when he flew through miles of restricted airspace and then landed on the capitol lawn

lead her a massive digital library filled with american books and how-to terrorism guides. there's an al qaeda job application asking questions such as do you wish to execute a suicide operation? with space or contact information in case the recruit became a martyr. an unusual offer from california farmers. in our record drought, sacramento san joaquin river delta farmers propose to give up a fourth of their available water. however, there's a catch to that proposal. in exchange, they want guarantees that the state will not restrict the remaining 75% of their water for more than a century. the state's waterboard director says he will decide by friday whether to accept that offer. paul deanno is live in albany with mobile weather this afternoon. the clouds look threatening but no rain.

three different games going on right now. the game just about to start. better start paying attention to the batter once the game starts. but it's chilly out here but it's not that unusual for albany to be in the upper 50s this time of year. what is unusual is for it to last 19 days a. and for highs to not hit 70 away from the water which happened again today. golden gate bridge where it is partly

concord 54. cloudy. san francisco cloudy with drizzle 54 degrees. santa rosa 49. fairfield 53. livermore 53 degrees. so why the rain? why the chill? it's all for one reason. the opposite of what we had all winter long now we have a huge trough of low pressure in place. there are two smaller lows which are one offshore and one to our east just feeding in that marine air. the ocean sitting at 53 degrees so the air above it is also chilly and that chilly flow continues to spill into the bay area keeping us below average for at least the next couple of days. we'll be a bit milder on the weekend. mostly cloudy tonight. watch out for a few sprinkles and drizzle. we are going to stay chilly tomorrow and friday. and a minimal shower chance as low pressure makes a close pass. you may deal with a shower for five or 10 minutes but only a 20% chance but it's worth mentioning and it will trend milder but still below average over the holiday weekend. highs tomorrow, san francisco 61. still below our january average highs. concord 68. san rafael 66. napa 67. san jose high tomorrow 69 degrees. extended forecast you will see we're cooler still cloudy through friday. trending sunnier as the wind takes a north kick drying us out and warming us up but just a little bit. we are talking low 70s inland over the holiday weekend through memorial day. mid-60s near the bay with perhaps more
