6:02 am
before. >> you get onto that bay bridge. it's just west of grand avenue. so the second lane is currently blocked and we're already starting to see some of those delays. but hopefully that's getting cleared up at least within the next hour or so. taking a look at some drive times those who are heading to the mates from the crockett, 18 minute commite while the greek to 5, 80 12 minute commute, castro valley to the maze of 14 minute commute stanley and or to the maze a 10 minute commute. now, once you get over to that area, you can see it does look like a parking lot, but still only a 30 minute commute from the maze to get into the city. those metering lights are on. a live look at the san mateo bridge this morning. there's a little bit of delays there. there is an accident that they're clearing up, but it still only a 15 minute commute on to the peninsula. taking a look at the richmond, sandra fell. it's an 8 minute commute over that. and lastly, that golden gate bridge, it's only 19 minutes to get into the city of san francisco james, we'll send it back to you. thanks a lot, michael. >> okay, 602. is a time and breaking news from overnight. a massive fire has engulfed a commercial building in concord

and nearby. roads are closed, impacted by this kron. four's will tran is live in concord with a look at what's going on. will. >> so will give you the road closures in just a few moments from now. but let me tell you what's going on. we are at least 8 hours into the fight and the firefighters. they're not going anywhere. they finally just lower there. latter because they were still dealing with the hot spots. james story, a look at that. the roof collapse at this building, which is pretty much in the heart of downtown concord right next to the bart station. now, let me show you video. this fire. they don't even know exactly when it started because he got good head start on them. it's a vacant building. and when they got here at around 10 o'clock in the morning, they realize that there are a lot of homeless people coming and going from this location, which is why they actually rushed inside. look for a knee body inside just to make sure that they're safe. but it got
6:04 am
so intense so quickly that they actually told their firefighters get out for their safety. that's when they raise the ladder and then they attacked the fire from above as well as from the ground, but not inside. this is a building known as park plaza is 3 stories. juan flores, the garage and 2 office floors above. it's been vacant for quite some time now. that is important because when it's vacant, there are no systems inside. know workers to call the fire department for them to come here, which is why they believe they got a huge head start on them. and that's why the roof collapsed at this particular point. no firefighters are injured and they were able to get out and now that the sun is up, they were met. they did manage to go inside as best as they can and they did not find anybody inside at this particular time. so the cause of the fire still under investigation. take a look at your screen. you talked about the road
6:05 am
closures, clayton road. that is a big road that you have to keep in mind. part of it is close, especially right next to the bart station. so keep that in mind. here's a other list the closures parking grant streets, east street in concord boulevard, first street and saint clair avenue, bart parking lot on park street. that has been compromised as well. speaking of bart, james and area at one point they were worried that barr commute, especially, of course, during the morning time would the affected possibly not even go through here because the fire was so close to bart that the fire could have reached over thp year and the embers could have damage to tracks, but they looked at the tracks. no problems whatsoever. they cleaned it up why you can see a lot of people are pulling into bart at this particular time not affected. and you might be able to even hear a bart train rolled through at this particular time. >> back to case thank you. will.

6:16 am
of a wobble to this camera up on top of mount tam. now, aside from that sea breeze today is going to be a very pleasant, actually calm day for the rest of the bay area with tons of sunshine out there across the bay. high pressure, ridges built up. this is blocking any storm system from dropping in just yet. but we will be seeing our next one in sight. and you've probably guessed it already come saturday. it's almost like clockwork. our weekends cool down and we get those storm systems pushing we will see a northwesterly wind kicking up overnight tonight ahead of our warmest days of the forecast. and because of that, we do have a wind advisory up in solano county going into effect 11:00pm tonight through 05:00pm on wednesday. this also affects the central valley. fire risk is not huge at this point because of those weekend rains we've had. but this will result in the risk of a few downed trees, downed limbs in some roadways. as for our futurecast, we're dry today tomorrow and for the rest of the week. the weekend, though, is going to be when we start to see those showers pushing

good morning, everyone. the time is around 6.15, taking a look right now at the not too many major delays. but if you're heading on to that, the bridge you can see there's a collision that happened. it's the westbound lanes of 80. >> and it's right near grand avenue. so just keep that in mind. it is causing some delays. chp is working to get moved out of the way. but you may see some of that delay over the antioch area. we always see that major congestion there. 34 minutes from antioch to concord this morning. nothing too out of the ordinary. if you're in vallejo heading over to crockett, you can see everything does seem to be moving smoothly. once you get from crockett and you're heading to the maze, it's a 19 minute commute from there. taking a look right now, a little bit more inland. walnut creek to 5.80. it's a 12 minute commute. so no delays as you're cruising through orinda. but that bay bridges always, you know, looking like a parking lot. those metering lights are on. everyone's waiting to get into the city and its a 14 minute commute. once you're on that bridge taking a look at some drive times this morning, livermore to dublin 11 minutes, dublin

to fremont. 17 minutes. san leandro to milpitas 27 minutes on that 8.80. there is a brush fire on the side of the road. believes it may be a homeless encampment that they're working to get control over. so we've got some looking lewers. it's causing some delays in that area milpitas to sunnyvale seven-minute commute. we'll take a look at the san mateo bridge right now to 14 minute commute. if you're heading on to the peninsula, no delays there. lastly, we will take a look over in the san jose area. morgan hill to san jose 60 minute commute. and lastly that 101. it's a 35 minute commute from san jose to menlo park. dorian. james, we'll seni it back to you. >> michael, thank you very much. 6.18 on the clock and san francisco police now looking for a hit and run driver who struck and killed a pedestrian back in february. we have a picture that police provided of the car they're looking for was on the night of february 25th that a man crossing the street was hit by a dark colored toyota camry, possibly a 1997 to 2001 model. the victim later died at the hospital from their injuries.
6:20 am
investigators say the car should have significant front-end damage, damage, headlights and should be missing. the toyota emblem on the hood. >> it's 6.19, and a developing story and the nation-wide pro-palestinian protest have continued, including what we've seen in the bay area and at stanford demonstrators on the university to divest from israel and disclosed investments. counter protesters showed up yesterday saying they also have a right to be on campus. >> we live in great these people are taking advantages of the freedoms afforded by this country. white will simultaneously chanting death to america, almost nightly basis. and so i think it's good for them to recognize that. maybe they should be thankful for the country that they're protesting in. >> that was a part of the jewish contingency that showed up to say that they don't like these protests. they feel like they're being alienated and pressured to be off of campus
6:21 am
from them. but there's a group called stanford for palestine and they say the university notified 9 students of a disciplinary violation against them for participate in the protest. and in a letter that was sent to kron 4 of disciplinary letter university said the students violated multiple policies by engaging and destructive behaviors with the intent to interfere with official university business. the group says the students who got the letter have been vocal about their support for palestine. they say that the they were not involved in the encampment. they're the university. also did not include any evidence of the participation. we did reach out to stanford for more details on this. but we haven't heard back. >> we're also taking a live look at san francisco state where the protests there has been growing as well. students their joint in yesterday with a rally and people also set up tents to and now congress is responding to these protests that they've seen with a bill.
6:22 am
>> tackling anti-semitism supporters say that legislation will crack down on hate speech against jewish people. let's take a closer look now. good morning, hannah. >> yeah, good morning. that bill is called the anti-semitism awareness act and it would change the federal definition of anti-semitism which could have some important consequences. as the israel-hamas war plays out overseas, pro-palestinian protests on college campuses are capturing the attention of congress. it is long past time that congress act to protect jewish americans from the scourge of empty antisemitism on campuses. congressman russell fry says that's why he supports the anti-semitism awareness act. it would change federal anti-discrimination law to use the international holocaust remembrance. alliance's definition of anti-semitism, which would make certain language chance used at protests punishable by law. now more than ever, it is critical that the federal government's definition of
6:23 am
anti-semitism. >> is clear and uniform. congressman michael burgess says that would give the education department more authority. so universities are empowered to take appropriate and decisive steps. >> to keep students safe and respond. exercises of speech that are so hostile. >> and discriminatory. but congressman jerry nadler argues the bill is too broad. this bill threatens to chill constitutionally protected speech. speech that is critical of israel alone does not constitute unlawful discrimination. instead, some democrats are pushing to pass the countering anti-semitism act, which would establish a national white house coordinator to combat antisemitism congresswoman mary scanlon called that legislation a much more bipartisan solution oriented useful bill. and congressman jim mcgovern agreed saying lawmakers need to come together on this. it is a mistake to not approach these issues with more unifying actions. in a split vote, lawmakers did decide to advance the anti-semitism

6:34 am
but it happened because there's no fire was and there was basically got it. let me talk about the road closures going on. this is right next to the bart station in concord. they were concerned that maybe bart service would be impacted this morning. it's not because the fire did not damage any of the tracks or the embers. you know, did anything to the tracks, the point where they had to slow it down. so that's not a problem. as far as the road closures. take a look at your screen, clayton road in oakland avenue park and grant streets, colfax street in concord boulevard, first street and saint clair avenue. if you miss that will post that on our website at kron 4 dot com. just plenty of detours through this location. they were able to go inside. james and once it was safe enough for the when the flames got knocked down in safe enough for the firefighters to go inside. they did not see anybody inside at this particular time. and of
