Carjacking and highspeed chase ends with gunfire. Anne makovec joins us live from San Franciscos financial district. Reporter it was a wild morning here downtown San Francisco. You can see the stolen vehicle here still behind me at the insection of battery and california. Several streets blocked off at this hour. The height of the drama this morning came at 6 a. M. If it would have happened an hour later things could have ended much worse. A carjacking suspect dead, Good Samaritan injured, windows broken and full investigation under way in San Franciscos busy financial district. It all started in richmond when a woman was carjacked in her driveway for this white escalate. When the womans husband came out to go to her assistance, she is fine, not taken. Reporter but the chase was on starting at about 5 a. M. Officers followed the suv across the Richmond San Rafael bridge into marin county and then the Golden Gate Bridge into San Francisco. As it hit city streets they lost it. But witnesses saw it going down battery the wrong way. Slammed into the vehicles at california and battery, and laid there for a little bit, then we heard a gunshot. Reporter police say after this threecar accident, people passing by on the sidewalk tried to help the suspect. But he shot at them. One man was hit. We dont know that the Good Samaritan was actually shot or hit by a bullet. It just some sort of a fragment hit him in the chest. Reporter once officers arrived on scene, they tried to get the suspect to surrender his gun and they say he turned it on them. Several officers fired striking the suspect and he died at the scene. Reporter one of those bullets went through a window of a nearby highrise where a man was sitting in his office on the 11th floor. He was not hit. Another window of an unoccupied building also hit. All morning, people tried to navigate around the blockedoff mess. Its very surprising. I didnt know if it was terrorism, political demonstrations, i was just confused on how i can get to work. Reporter the investigation into what did happen here continues. But this roadway battery should be open by the evening commute which is good news because it is a very popular roadway. The Good Samaritan, by the way, that was hit by a fragment is going to be okay. Just a superficial wound. Live in San Francisco, anne makevoc, kpix 5. Thank you.

Kpix 5 reporter mark sayre has more on that story. Reporter just one day after a big legal victory surfers wasted no time taking advantage of martins beach. Martins beach used to be open to the public until it was purchased by a Silicon Valley billionaire in 2008. That is when it was closed to Public Access. But a San Mateo County superior court judge ruled the new owner violated California Coastal Commission Regulations in closing the beach and ordered Public Access restored. How significant a day is this for you . Very important day. The right to access the california coast is important for all californians and one person shouldnt have the right to just unilaterally block access. The beach belongs to all of us. Im happy to come down and surf today. Its enormous to have the courts once again reaffirm the publics right to go to the beach in california. Its sad that this has to happen occasionally because of, um, private Property Owners blocking off beaches. But its always gratifying when the court reestablishes the fundamental principles of the coastal act. Reporter attorneys for owner vinod khosla argued that the coastal commissions regulations didnt apply because the land was private before california was even a state. But the judge apparently did not buy those arguments to the delight of surfers and advocates of an open coastline everywhere. Reporting in San Mateo County, im mark sayre, kpix 5.

Were not done yet. We could see a few more showers in fact this could get real interesting. There are some thunderstorms off the coastline. The cold front brought heavy rain to the area messing up traffic. But at the coastline we have lightning beginning to show up out there and we have some unstable air thats going to be moving overhead. Now, for the most part, its dry in the bay area but you see just off the coastline, we have had a couple of lightning strikes there. And the core of the low is expected to pass over the bay area heading into tomorrow. Main cold front making its way over to the Central Valley and also into the sierra nevada.

Very impressive for this time of year. All right, into the afternoon, well see some sun and clouds, a slight chance of a few scattered showers and an isolated thunderstorm. And still a slight chance overnight tonight and into tomorrow. But for the weekend we are looking good. Should be mostly sunny and dry. Around the state if you are traveling be prepared maybe wet at times. You will see 70s and 80s into the Central Valley. An occasional shower into early tomorrow morning. And then by the afternoon, the core of the low is going to move overhead and that could spark a couple of thunderstorms. Temperatures today will be cooler, 60s and some 70s outside. Your sunset time for tonight 7 02. Sunrise tomorrow 7 01. And so well keep things a little unsettled tomorrow. Nothing like we had this morning. But a chance of an isolated shower or a thunderstorm.
