7:00 am
news. >> this is mornings on two. >> good morning. welcome back. i'm gasia mikaelian and good morning i'm dave clark. >> it's monday, it's may 20th. always good to see you. >> what a nice way to start the work. >> are you going to help steve with the forecast? >> well he needs no help from us. no help. goodness knows. but we are listening. steve >> well, little warmer, not a lot, but, i mean, we can't get much cooler, can we. for may my goodness the week friday and saturday. incredibly cool here. but we'll bump up a little bit. some low clouds hanging on. mainly about san francisco, oakland south more so on the san mateo coast down towards gilroy, hollister, santa cruz, 40s, 50s on the temps just barely seeing. now the visible satellite. you can see that socked in for some, but to the north and the east it's mainly clear already. so everything has changed from the weekend till today only patchy low clouds that'll burn off and we'll get more of a little bit of a northerly breeze, which should help us warm up. 60s 70s to near 80. well sometimes that morning commute can be enchanted
7:01 am
and other times it can be a little delicate. let's find out what's going on out there. >> well, i know that all too well, steve. highway for we have a problem that just cleared from the freeway on westbound four at railroad. but as you know, it's been very slow coming in from antioch. and we do have the traffic downstream. you're going to see. let me let me show you just downstream. it's like, where is everyone? well they're stuck behind that crash or that what was a crash in pittsburgh. so if you're in bay point, grab that cardigan, get in the car and go right now. bay bridge toll plaza backed up to the maze. metering lights are on 7:00. let's get back to the headlines. >> the president of iran was killed over the weekend in a helicopter crash. there are now questions about what this could mean for the balance of power in iran. and tensions in the middle east. ktvu andre senior live in studio with what's expected to happen next. >> andre gasia, good morning to you. well, the crash happened yesterday in low visibility, but overnight the iranian government confirmed that president ebrahim raisi and the country's foreign minister were killed. we're
7:02 am
getting new video from turkish media and iranian state tv of the site where the crash happened, near the border of iran and azerbaijan. you can see the foggy conditions where that helicopter crashed in the mountains. raisi was widely expected to be the next supreme leader of iran, since the current leader of the country is 85 years old. and while the supreme leader has appointed an interim president, there are questions about the future of the country's government. >> i think people are going to see this as as potentially an opportunity, for protests or instability in iran, obviously the loss of the head of state and the foreign minister is a very big deal, what the islamic republic is, is going to do instead is to show that its processes and its institutions will continue to function. >> in the end, people must be assured that there will be no disturbances in the country's affairs. >> raisi was known as a hardline leader who oversaw the
7:03 am
executions of thousands of people in the 1980s, and came down hard on protesters back in 2022. on the streets of tehran, some people mourned regime, but others were less sure of his legacy. >> he tried to carry out his duties well, but i don't think he was as successful as he should have been. he did carry out his duties. i'm not saying that he didn't, but he was a bit weak. i think he didn't put in the necessary amount of effort for the people. that's my feeling. the crash comes as iran launched an unprecedented drone and missile strike on israel last month. >> the company is also enriched uranium closer than ever to weapons grade levels. iran is still facing very strong sanctions by the us and other western countries, and that means aircraft in iran often face a shortage of parts and have to fly without safety checks. state department has not commented on this crash. garcia >> andre. thank you. the international criminal court's chief prosecutor said today he'll seek arrest warrants for some of the main figures in the
7:04 am
war in gaza. he says israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and three hamas leaders are guilty of war crimes. the prosecutor says he's also seeking arrest warrants for other leaders on both sides of the war. legal experts say the court will have a difficult time prosecuting israeli leaders, and that a trial could be trouble for the israeli government. >> our time now. 703 the united states renewing efforts to work out a cease fire in gaza over the weekend, jake sullivan, the white house national security adviser, met with israeli prime minister netanyahu in jerusalem and talked about israel's postwar plan. the united states wants an agreement that would see saudi arabia and israel working together to create a two state solution, president biden says he wants to end the fighting altogether, as the war between israel and hamas is approaching its eighth month. >> what's happening in gaza and israel is heartbreaking. it's a humanitarian crisis in gaza. that's why i've called for an
7:05 am
immediate cease fire. >> now, israel may be headed towards a political crisis. a member of israel's war cabinet and a key rival of israeli prime minister netanyahu threatened to quit. if israel doesn't come up with a better plan for gaza. it is now 704. back here at home, oakland police are busy investigating what appears to be a shooting right outside of the oakland federal building in downtown. we're trying to confirm the specifics about this with police now. video from that scene this morning shows a car crashed into a construction site at the corner of 14th and jefferson. the front windshield of that car appears to have bullet holes. we haven't heard about any injuries yet. the police blocked off several blocks of downtown oakland to investigate. make sure you stay with us on mornings on two. we'll bring you more on this still breaking story. >> an armed suspect remains in the hospital this morning after being shot and wounded by san
7:06 am
jose police. it happened shortly after 4:00 yesterday afternoon on colmar drive near the east capitol expressway. police say they were called to the scene after receiving reports of a man firing a gun in the neighborhood. >> when officers arrived on scene, the suspect was still actively discharging a firearm, prompting an officer involved shooting. we can tell you that no officers were struck by gunfire at this time. the suspect was hit by officer gunfire and was transported to a local hospital with life threatening injuries. >> san jose police are expected to update the suspect's condition later today. investigators have not said what led to yesterday's shooting. >> our time is 705 2000 graduate student workers at uc santa cruz threatened to go on strike this morning. now the walkout involves teaching assistants, researchers and other academic workers. their union leaders say the strike is to protest the uc system's recent crackdown on pro-palestinian demonstrators on college campuses around the state. still not clear how long this possible strike will last. uc administrators say the walkout violates the no strike
7:07 am
clause in the student workers contract. >> several school districts and charter schools in the state have been fined for violating rules on transitional kindergarten. class sizes. schools are required to have an average class size of no more than 24 students. for t.k, they're also required to have a 1 to 12 adult to student ratio. the state education department says those t.k. classes have smaller class size requirements to make sure students get the attention they need. more than ten districts and 22 charters were found to be out of compliance, mostly in southern california for several districts. blame the nationwide teacher shortage at least one said the state didn't make the requirements clear. >> it is 707. scientists are now using artificial intelligence to determine the impact of current events on mental health. now, researchers at stony brook university in new york state published a study. they're using ai to measure anxiety and depression based on social media
7:08 am
activity. the researchers say. through artificial intelligence, they sampled more people in a shorter time period at a fraction of the cost. >> talking about being scared or sad or uncomfortable or lonely. and on the other side, we might see people talking about happiness, family, good social life. >> study examined pre and post pandemic and they also found a shift in anxiety and depression. and there was a similar response to other major events like the killing of george floyd. >> so this is really important because recently there's been a rise in causes of death related to mental health conditions. suicide mortality has been on the rise, especially among adolescents and youth. opioid mortality. >> now, this stony brook team is working on data from this year and studying the current anxiety and depression levels associated with local as well as world events like the new york area earthquake back in april and the

very aggressively with their staff to get that patient transferred to the hospital. now, the fire chief said the wait time to get patients to the hospital is normally an hour. the state and county standard is 20 minutes. >> all right. 738 we're getting pretty much into the heat of the monday morning. >> yeah we are. >> sal, where are you most concerned for traffic? >> well, you know, as i've been telling you guys, tuesday, wednesday and thursday are a little bit more crowded. but today we have some crowds out there. let's go to the bay bridge. it is backed up all the way out to the maze. metering lights are on. there are no major issues here on interstate 880, but you will see some slow traffic here on the san mateo bridge. so where there was blank space, there is no longer blank space. i'm afraid, these commutes are beginning to wake up south bay. the same thing. just a few, you know, maybe 15, 20 minutes ago, it was a lot clearer. it does make a big difference out there. no major problems, though. getting out to sunnyvale, cupertino or palo alto. steve, in my opinion, at
7:40 am
739 the weather has been gorgeous. >> a cool spring for us, no doubt about it. sal, you're absolutely spot on. it has been well below average here on the temps today. we'll bump up a little bit. but you know i follow these things. the forecast highs have really been overdone on a lot of these. we've been coming in cooler than that. today will be a little warmer but there's still some fog on the san mateo coast. and oh did i mess up on that? i did let me do this. you know, you try, you try, san francisco looking today at 65, 50, what's average? 64, 51. the records 92 1988 43, 1899 a little bit warmer inland after an unseasonably cool friday and saturday, concord was only 71 on saturday, which is really in may. hard to believe, but it was sunday was only 77. we'll go 80 today. might be a soft a soft 80. it'll be warmer inland for a couple of days. this is not looking like a huge jump, but
7:41 am
this time of year it doesn't take much. it'll be helped along more by a northerly breeze than anything else. 4050 on the temps here, vacaville is 59, brentwood 62, but mainly low 50s. upper 40s. another cool morning. east bay temps, clayton 47, north dublin, castro valley in there. then it's all 50s, although pittsburgh and brentwood, both with 60 and 62. that northerly breeze will favor areas more towards the valley. 40 arcade and eureka were 38 this morning, 30 in truckee, 33 south lake tahoe, 50s and 60s up and down the coast. a couple of low systems, one to the west southwest, another one to the north. really, though, it's that northerly breeze coming in behind it. so that allows us to get a little bump up on the temps here for a couple of days. warmer, not a huge barn burner or anything like that, but some mid 80s tomorrow inland look likely today. patchy low clouds, mainly south. more sun today, a little warmer with that late breeze. 60s 70s and 80s. i think tomorrow will probably sneak in an 85 or 86 well inland. then everything says here comes another system and a cooler pattern. end of the week into
7:42 am
the weekend. >> all right steve, thank you. let's run out to our newsroom here. andre senior following up on a report. we had just minutes ago about private space travel that has a lot of people thinking this morning. >> andre, if i had the money. >> yeah, you'd go. yeah. >> all right, so let's get right to the question. gasia dave, this morning, we want your reaction to this. earlier this hour, we told you about another blue origin flight going to space. as space tourism becomes more common, we're asking you this. if you could travel to space, what would you do? your options are would you just do that quick trip up into space, float around a little bit, then come back? would you like to maybe go walk on the moon or visit another planet? so these are, you know, really fantastical, but we want to hear what you think. all you need to do is visit scan the qr code on the top right hand corner of your screen, or go to ktvu .com/ vote. gasia i think i already known you. i think we talked about this at dave though i'm interested in hearing what dave would do. >> i'll be honest with you, if i had the chance, i'd take a space walk. okay, you'd walk up. i met an astronaut who told me what it was like to be walking and going

raising the price of some of its most popular products. it's in its most recent earnings report, costco's ceo revealed gas prices at costco will soon be more in line with other gas stations to increase profit margins that is something people look for, and reports show costco has quietly increased the price of some staples, such as olive oil, and is now even considering raising its yearly membership fees by as much as $10. while costco's prices are increasing, targets are going in the opposite direction. target announced shoppers will soon see marked down prices on a long list of items beginning this summer that includes milk, meat, bread, fresh fruit and vegetables, paper towels and pet food. target says it's hoping to attract a growing number of u.s. consumers who are on a tight budget due to inflation. i'm pam cook. that's a look at your dollars and cents. >> all right. let's get out the door here. 750 checking in the traffic center and saying, good morning again to sal. >> all right. and good morning to you both. right now we still have a slow traffic beginning to
7:51 am
develop in the silicon valley on 101. and 85 and 280. not serious problems, however we do have slow traffic. to be sure. east bay commute has been slow on four and six. 80 is very slow. there's a crash right near highway 24 now, and it was already slow. but now we have some very slow traffic heading down from concord. we're going to investigate. i also want to check in with the bay bridge. the bay bridge is backed up to the maze. 750, i think it's been gorgeous forecast out there. >> i will not argue with you. it's been very comfortable, no doubt about it. it's been freezing for some at night, but today looks a little warmer here. now there is a north breeze out to the valley. if we can get that to develop a little bit. i think eastern solano, contra costa county probably be the warmest here. temps will be near average, though there's not the coverage of the fog that we've seen. so i did bump up santa rosa. if they have a south wind right now, if they get a north and they'll get to 80, the forecast highs for santa rosa
7:52 am
have been off for about five days. i mean, you have to favor the cooler temps, not the warmer. but today might be one of those days. the city should bump up a little above 62, which they've been stuck at livermore to 76 and redwood city from 73 to 76. water temps, though still cold point arena 49 point race 50 san francisco bowie about 5253, then 5455. half moon bay down to the monterey bay is as cold water and it'll be back with that fog as we get towards the middle end of the week. 5060s vacaville 62, brentwood 62. a little bit of a northerly breeze there. 4948 woodside, stanford, atherton. low 50s here for some even pacifica. one observation of 49. most of the fog is on the san mateo coast south morgan hill, gilroy, watsonville, santa cruz. north of that, there's very little there's some around berkeley, emeryville. but i think that's about done a couple of lows, just kind of hanging around. it's more wind driven, this little warm up here, the valley, no doubt about it. again, some of the most inland locations will bump into the 80s. maybe mid 80s tomorrow, but i think coast and bay will just be near normal on the temps here. patchy
7:53 am
low clouds, mainly south. more sun today. a late breeze throughout to the valley. a little warmer there. 6070s and 80s. tomorrow looks to be the warmest day. still nice on wednesday then cooler. here comes that fog again. end of the week into the weekend. >> steve. thank you. scientists are using ai to gauge mental health impacts of current events. next, at eight, the groundbreaking study offering faster, cost effective insights into anxiety and depression. and it's a race that's one of those only in san francisco things we'll take you to. bay to breakers and show you some of the creati costu s

7:59 am
including grilled meat skewers and pastries. i know they're good. the musicians use traditional greek string instruments, and the dancers entertain the crowds. the locals say they come every year and enjoy everything. this three day event has to offer the music, the live bands i enjoy, the vendors that are selling their, their wares, whatever they're selling. >> everything is so great and the weather is perfect. >> it is a great event. this was the event's 52nd year of bringing the community together. well, paramount pictures believes its new movie, if really struck a chord with families. it's a live action animated movie. it debuted number one this weekend, earning $35 million in north america. that's about $10 million less than the projections. however, the movie studios, as families, turned out to see this movie, and they expect a long,

8:01 am
>> well, a little warmer here. not a lot, unless you're in luck. coast and bay. or, you know, if you're if you already have the sun, it'll be better than it was on friday. saturday. we've been unseasonably cool here, but we will bounce up a little bit here today. 40s, 50s on the temps. most of the low cloud deck is about half moon bay south down towards morgan hill. gilroy over towards santa cruz. there's a little bit around the bay, but i think that's about done here. some around oakland over the estuary. there's the most of it. you can see san mateo coast, santa cruz, hollister, gilroy. but everything has changed at least compared to the weekend. we'll get more sunshine today and it will be a little bit warmer. temperatures near average for some, a little above for others, especially out to the valley. i think they'll take the bigger jump today, but still only 60, 70 and 80s. you know sal, it's always when you look at that other guy and say, i knew you were trouble highway for out there today, highway 68, interstate 680 as well. steve. both of those are trouble. and not a lot of blank space on those roads. unfortunately, right now, on 680 from concord to walnut creek because of a crash at ignacio valley road,
8:02 am
they're trying to clear it, but, you know, it is going to be very, very slow as you drive from concord to walnut creek. as a consequence, highway 24 is a little lighter because people aren't getting through 880 still clearing a crash right there at whipple southbound slow from hayward into fremont. and we do have a bigger backup at the bay bridge, backed up all the way out to the maze. once you get onto the bridge, it looks okay. 801 let's get back to the headlines, rachel. >> thank you. we're learning more this morning about the president of iran's death in this weekend's helicopter crash. president ebrahim raisi died when his helicopter crashed into a mountain in dense fog in a remote part of northwestern iran. iran's foreign minister was also killed in that crash, along with several other government leaders. while the supreme leader has appointed an interim president, there are questions about the future of the country's government. >> ibrahim raisi was a very leading contender for the position of the supreme leader. now, the big question in iran is what happens when ayatollah khomeini, who is 95, passes away, who is going to be the
8:03 am
next supreme leader? >> raisi was known as a hardliner, a hard leader, hard line leader who oversaw the executions of thousands in the 1980s and came down hard on protesters in 2022. iran's supreme leader says the deaths will not disrupt the country's fairs, but his passing could lead to a power struggle. >> i think people are going to see this as as potentially an opportunity, for protests or instability in iran, obviously the loss of the head of state and the foreign minister is a very big deal, what the islamic republic is, is going to do instead is to show that its processes and its institutions will continue to function. >> his death comes just one month after iran launched an unprecedented missile and drone attack on israel. it will likely add to the turmoil in the middle east. >> now the international criminal court's chief prosecutor said today he'll seek arrest warrants for some of the
8:04 am
main figures in the war in gaza, he says israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and three hamas leaders are all guilty of war crimes. >> the prosecutor says he's also seeking arrest warrants for other leaders on both sides of the war. legal experts say the court will have a difficult time prosecuting israeli leaders, and that a trial could be trouble for the israeli government. >> the us is renewing efforts to work out a cease fire in gaza this weekend. jake sullivan, the white house national security adviser, met with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and talked about israel's postwar plans. the us wants an agreement that would see saudi arabia and israel work together to create a two state solution, president biden says he wants to end the fighting altogether, as the war between israel and hamas nears its eighth month. >> what's happening in gaza and israel is heartbreaking. it's a humanitarian crisis in gaza. that's why i've called for an immediate cease fire. >> israel may be headed towards a political crisis. a member of the country's war cabinet and a key rival of israeli prime minister netanyahu, has threatened to quit if israel
8:05 am
does not come up with a better plan for gaza. >> a british court ruled this morning. wikileaks founder julian assange can make one final challenge to his extradition to the united states . assange is wanted back in the united states on espionage charges stemming from publishing classified documents on wikileaks. his supporters gathered outside the court carrying flags that read let him go, joe, referring to president joe biden. >> oakland police are investigating what appears to be a shooting just outside the oakland federal building. we're working to confirm the specific details of this incident with police. video from the scene shows a car crashed into a construction site at the corner of 14th and jefferson. the front windshield of that car appears to have bullet holes in it. no word yet on any injuries now. officers closed several blocks of downtown oakland to conduct their investigation. stay with mornings on two for more on this breaking story. >> an armed suspect remains in the hospital this morning after being shot and wounded by san jose police. it happened shortly after 4:00 yesterday afternoon on colmar drive near east capitol expressway. police say they were called to the scene
8:06 am
after receiving reports of a man firing a gun in the neighborhood. >> when officers arrived on scene, the suspect was still actively discharging a firearm, prompting an officer involved shooting. we can tell you that no officers were struck by gunfire at this time. the suspect was hit by officer gunfire and was transported to a local hospital with life threatening injuries. >> san jose police are expected to update the suspect's condition later today. investigators have not said what led to yesterday's shooting. >> 805 your time 2000 graduate student workers at uc santa cruz are threatening to say they will go on a strike this morning. the walkout involves teaching assistants, researchers and other academic workers. their union leaders say the strike is to protest the uc system's recent crackdown on pro-palestinian demonstrations on college campuses across the state. it's still not clear how long this strike will last, us administrators say. uc administrators say the walkout violates the no strike clause in the student workers contract. >> several school districts and charter schools in our state have been fined for violating
8:07 am
rules on transitional kindergarten class sizes. schools are required to have an average class size of no more than 24 students. for t.k, they're also required to have a 1 to 12 adult to student ratio. the state education department says t.k. classes have smaller class size requirements to make sure the young students get the attention they need more than ten districts and 22 charters were found to be out of compliance, since most of them in southern california. several districts blame the nationwide teacher shortage. at least one says the state didn't make the requirements clear. all right. >> 806 now scientists are using artificial intelligence technology to determine the impact of current events on mental health. researchers at stony brook university in new york state published a study using ai to measure anxiety and depression based on social media activity. now, these researchers say, through ai, they sampled more people in a shorter time period at a fraction of the cost. >> talking about being scared or sad or uncomfortable or lonely. and on the other side, we might see people talking about happiness, family, good social
8:08 am
life. >> so the study examined pre and post pandemic and found a shift in anxiety and depression. there was a similar response to other major events such as the killing of george floyd. >> this is really important because recently there's been a rise in causes of death related to mental health conditions. suicide mortality has been on the rise, especially among adolescents and youth. opioid mortality. >> the stony brook team is working on data from this year to analyze the current anxiety and depression levels associated with local and world events, such as the new york area earthquake in april and the ongoing israel-hamas war. >> time is 808, and we do have a bunch of slow traffic out there. i think the worst of it right now is 680 in walnut creek. there was a crash right near ignatius valley road. 680 is backed up. so is 242. highway four was already slow because of earlier issues. that's improving
8:09 am
slightly. and then 880 is slow. getting into fremont southbound, 680 through pleasanton, also at the bay bridge. we're seeing improvement. i tell you, mondays and fridays are a little different. i'm going to see a little improvement here at the toll plaza. and you will see it. i mean, i wouldn't call it a gorgeous commute, but it's much better than it was even an hour ago. 808 let's go back to the desk. >> sal, thank you. investigators searching for the cause of a weekend fire in yerba buena island that caused a big traffic jam on the bay bridge. the brush fire broke out saturday afternoon, sending thick plumes of smoke into the air, shutting down the eastbound lanes of the bridge. dozens of firefighters battled the flames for more than two hours before all lanes could reopen. investigators say the fire did not damage any buildings. >> yeah, a lot of people had to detour traffic because of that. all right. now to this story here, the mayor of antioch is flying to china to promote antioch's deep water ports and its industrial region. mayor lamar hernandez thorpe will meet with government and business officials in hong kong and chongqing. the focus of the trip is on green development and on

be. it's still yeah. >> some of our viewers are saying, why are you letting them know? because they ask us to and we're going to do that. all right. good morning everyone. let's go out and take a look at it here at the bay bridge. you can see the traffic is going to be backed. it's improving though i like this commute quite a bit. there have been no major issues here, on the bay bridge. i wouldn't say it's gorgeous, but i would say it's all right. northbound 880. as you drive past the coliseum, you can see some slow traffic there. and this morning on the san mateo bridge, we have improved here on the san mateo bridge. no major issues getting over to the peninsula. but you know all too well things could change in a minute, so we'll let you know. 816 let's bring steve back in so he can't shake it off. >> just yet. not yet. it's improving. yes okay. thank you sir. a little bit of fog holding on around oakland emeryville. and then that's a that's about it. just the i mean you can't see much there. san mateo coast south and then it's on the santa clara valley as well. but otherwise most locations are
8:18 am
clear unless you're down towards santa cruz, gilroy, morgan hill, san martin, and along highway one there. so that's where the fog has been this morning. here. a little warmer today. clear for most fog. south temps near average, north breeze, if that. north vacaville has a north breeze. travis has a west and there's a 10 degrees difference between their temps. so that i'll say eastern solano, contra costa county look to be the warmest locations today. the city i went 65. lowest 50w average 64 5192. the record 1988. don't remind us i know, i know 43. in 1899, inland temps unseasonably cool on friday. saturday, even sunday wasn't bad . concord was 71 on saturday, 77 yesterday. we'll go 80 today. soft 80, as we like to say, a little warmer for the next few days inland. but i'll tell you, the water temps are so cold it will not take much to get this fog roaring back here. point reyes is now 49 degrees point arena is 49. san francisco boys been about 5253 as i've been mentioning this since april.
8:19 am
when is that cold? and you get these little weak systems coming in. that's all it takes to ramp us up, especially when we start to get 80s inland, some 60s vacaville, brentwood, 65, mainly 50s though for the temps that fog will retreat there. but still some for the morning hours. and then high pressure is really not that strong. it's all about a north breeze. that's really what this is about. and i think after after tuesday into wednesday, it'll start to turn more westerly. another system is going to come in here from the north, and that's going to bring in a much cooler pattern, but not until probably thursday, friday. so monday, sunshine, more sun today, a little bit warmer. if you're out to the valley, that'll be the warmest temps if you're coast and bay, 60s and 70s does look warmer tomorrow. then after that we start to come back and i think the fog roars back. end of the week, you guys. >> all right steve? thanks. one of the bay area's top high school athletes held a free football camp for kids this weekend in danville. dozens of kids showed up for the first annual marco jones football skills camp at san ramon valley high school. it was completely free and raised money for the

8:31 am
most locations already on there. it is a little bit half moon bay, but you can see it's starting to erode there. but still some around morgan hill might be out of the soup by now. gilroy hollister. but to the north most locations are already good. everything has changed compared to the weekend when we had a big fog bank. now it's only patchy. fog burns off fast, sunny and warm. there is a breeze out to the valley that will be the main impact for areas to the east. 6070 to near 80 on the temps. well let's hope there's no bad blood out there and the commute is better. is that the case? >> it is better. steve at the bay bridge, for example, you can see i'll go right to the bay bridge. you know all too well though, even though it's good now, it could change. but we're keeping you know, we're keeping our fingers crossed that this is the end of the commute. this is a look at interstate 880. you can see that traffic is moving along very well. there have been no major issues this morning on the south bay commute, getting up to cupertino, sunnyvale and palo alto. 831 let's get back to
8:32 am
the desk. >> several roads and parking lots near a san jose apartment complex are closed. this morning for an investigation. police shot and seriously injured a man accused of firing a gun on a public street near some shops and homes. ktvu erasmus has been there all morning and is live now with an update. ali >> yeah, we're live at sussex and south capitol avenue and behind us is where you can see police are still restricting traffic and limiting who can drive in and out of this pretty residential area here behind us. because of the investigation into a police shooting that happened here. it happened in the alleyway between this row of homes directly behind us and an apartment complex behind that row of homes. now we want to show you some cell phone video shared with ktvu showing part of the police response when this happened yesterday. this video was taken by a person inside one of the apartments on colma road in san jose from a kitchen window. in the video, you see several san jose police officers with their guns drawn, approaching a van with an open door that appears to have its back window shot out. now,
8:33 am
police came to this apartment complex around 4:00 yesterday afternoon, responding to a report about a man firing a gun out in the open area. >> so when officers arrived on scene, the suspect was still actively discharging a firearm, prompting an officer involved shooting. >> and police say that's when they fired at the man with the gun. and they struck and seriously injured him. neighbors described what they saw and heard. >> at first we thought it was like a firecracker, but we didn't think much of it. and later we hear like two more gunshots. and then that's when i looked out the kitchen window and i saw there was like a van with broken windows. later on, we hear another gunshot and then we hear a guy screaming. so when the guy was screaming, it was like real really loud. like he was in pain. >> now there's a lot of unanswered questions here, and we're waiting to get more specific details from police about what exactly happened here, the chain of events, how that van you see in that cell
8:34 am
phone video that the witness also described is connected to all of this. we also don't know the condition of the man who was shot by police as of last night. san jose police said that man was rushed to the hospital in serious condition. now back out here. live what you see. here are two tow trucks that looks like they're going into the restricted area where police are still doing their investigation. they may be possibly taking away that van that somehow connected to this police shooting and this scene, we will be out here to see what those tow trucks then take out of this scene. but for now, people are allowed to walk in and out of those apartments in this area where this police shooting happened, but they can't drive their vehicles in and out. so there's still a lot of road closures in the area of colmar. and story road is one end of the scene here that's closed off for the investigation . where we are is kind of on the south end of that, and that's south capital avenue and sussex. so this entire street corner behind us is really closed off to traffic because of this
8:35 am
investigation in surrounding this police shooting that started 4:00 yesterday. so now we're more than 16 hours later, they're still working to clear the scene. we'll send it back to you guys. >> ali, thank you both so much. we'll check in with you later this morning. now to this. a police search continues for the person who killed a homeless man in antioch on wednesday morning. the body of raheem coe was found on the sidewalk near the antioch health center on country hills drive. now investigators believe the 48 year old was killed by blunt force trauma. people who knew coe say he had been on the streets for several years and was beloved by many in the community. >> he didn't deserve to die like that. although he was homeless, he was like, he was like family, you know? he's a good dude. >> i couldn't believe it. i never cried so much in my life. >> this marks antioch's fifth homicide of the year. police are asking anyone who may have dash cam video near the scene of the crime to give them a call. >> police in fremont are investigating a serious overnight motorcycle crash. officers received calls of a crash around 9:00 last night
8:36 am
along niles canyon road, near palomares road. police stayed on the scene for hours later working to learn what caused the crash. the world is reacting to news the president of iran has been killed in a weekend helicopter crash. iran's state run television network reported early today. president ebrahim raisi died when his helicopter crashed into a mountain amid desert fall yesterday in a remote part of northwestern iran. iran's foreign minister was also killed in the crash, along with several other government leaders. iran's president was known as a hard line ruler who showed no mercy in his response to protests in tehran and other iranian cities spent most of his life in a judiciary in the 1980s, which was the bloodiest decade of the islamic republic, where thousands of dissidents were executed. raisi was widely expected to become the next supreme leader of iran. his death comes just one month after iran launched an unprecedented missile and drone attack on israel, and is widely expected to only add to the turmoil in
8:37 am
the middle east. >> a 36 is your time this morning. california republicans have wrapped up their state convention in burlingame, south dakota governor kristi noem was among the out of town speakers who spoke at the convention. she's been criticized lately because of her new book that includes a bizarre story about her shooting and killing her dog and meeting north korean leader kim jong un. however, the possible contender for vice president laughed off the controversy and urged california republicans to support donald trump. >> i don't think it's about republicans and democrats anymore. >> i don't think it's about political parties. i think it is about people who love america and people who are trying to destroy america. >> registered democrats still outnumber republicans in california 2 to 1, but republican party leaders say their party is slowly but surely attracting more voters. in california, a longtime blue state. >> when we run smart races, when we recruit great candidates like we're doing, we can win these seats, and that's what's going to help make the difference.
8:38 am
>> now, in a statement, the chairman of california's democratic party said in part, quote, while this weekend's gathering of california republicans is just another stop on trump's vice president audition tour, california democrats are convening to lead the resistance against trump and the republican party's extremist agenda. >> the federal judge is sentenced a man convicted of attacking the husband of congresswoman nancy pelosi says she'll reopen the sentencing portion of the case. the judge says she made an error by not giving david de pap a chance to speak in court friday. de pap was sentenced to 30 years in prison for the break in and attack two years ago at the pelosi home in san francisco. the new sentencing date is now may 28th. his actual sentence, though, is not expected to change. all right. >> it's coming up on 838. now, contra costa county continues to deal with a shortage of ambulances. ambulance services have been reduced to level zero at times lately, which means there were no units available for transport, the county fire chief told the board of supervisors. part of the problem is getting patients transferred to hospitals. it's an issue he's
8:39 am
been working to resolve. >> we have also started to institute, some off load policies at hospitals, where after a certain point in time, we become much more engaged with their staff to, essentially work very aggressively with their staff to get that patient transferred to the hospital. but the fire chief said the wait time to get patients to the hospital is typically an hour. >> the state and county standard, though that is 20 minutes. >> a little bit of gray out there. still. let's see what steve paulson is predicting when it comes to the afternoon hours. >> we'll get a little warm up. not a big one. if you're out to the valley. yes, there's a little more of a northerly breeze, but what i'm going to start with are the incredibly cold water temps here. point arena 49 point raised boy has dropped to 49. san francisco boy was 52. they're bouncing between 5250. this is really cold. i mean, for this time of year. and the kicker going forward is and
8:40 am
i've mentioned this since april, as long as these water temps stay around this range or 5455, i think we're looking at a cool june as well. now, if they get up to 58, 59, 60, all bets are off. but, you know, as brian garcia in santa clara is on the same page as i am, i think this pattern will last well into june and maybe longer, as the way i see it. but, you know, can turn on a dime. but right now we get a brief, little warm ups, and then they come right back down because the weak systems keep dropping in here from the north, some fog holding on highway one, santa cruz, watsonville, gilroy. i think it's about gone morgan hill. but most of the fog is to the south, so a little warmer today, not a lot, but a little bit. now, most of this north breeze out to the valley. i mean, vacaville, pittsburgh, antioch, brentwood, oakley. i think they'll probably be the warmest here for san francisco. 65, 50w average, 6451. the records 92 on the high side, 1988 and 43 way back in 1899. so for santa rosa, san francisco, livermore, redwood city, bumping up the high temps, i have to be brutally honest, not my
8:41 am
forecast, but other forecast highs for santa rosa have been way off for about the last five days, so i did that reluctantly. i wanted to go like 78, but if a north wind kicks in, they'll make it to 80. livermore should be close and redwood city should bump up a few. so warmer inland temps here, especially today, tuesday. and then after that i think it levels off by thursday. the fall comes roaring back and that'll take us into a cooler weekend. it looks like by friday saturday 5060s. look at vacaville. they have a north wind that'll do it. almost 70 brentwood 66. so therein lies your bigger warm up. we'll be out to the valley, eastern solano, contra costa county. a little bit of fog hanging on, but for only a couple of days. and then i think we start to see another system dropping in. and, you know what that means? the lower pressure, the water temps, that cold, the fog bank will have no problem flying in. but for the next few days, inland temps will bump up. so monday sunshine, some fog hanging on to the south but it looks nice to warm here. warmest temps will be on tuesday 6070 to some low 80s. could push some mid 80s while inland tomorrow. then after that we level it off and sure looks to me like fog and cooler temps
8:42 am
arrive thursday into friday in the weekend. >> all right steve, thank you so much. garcia. did you learn about your credit score when you were in school? no, exactly, exactly. >> long after college. >> we should have known about it. and we are taking you back to the classroom to talk credit scores of program for teens, teaching them the imptance of a good
8:43 am
8:44 am
8:45 am
israel-hamas war. some of the graduates at the all male, historically black college turned their backs as the president spoke. a faculty member stood with her back facing the stage and her fist raised. president biden told the crowd he was committed to helping bring about a peaceful solution in the middle east. >> i support peaceful, nonviolent protest. your voices should be heard, and i promise you, i hear them. i'm working to make sure we finally get a two state solution. the only solution for two people to live in peace, security and dignity. god bless you all. >> all right, so yesterday's speech comes as president biden tries to win the votes of young black men for his reelection. >> some recent polls that show his numbers with that demographic group slipping.
8:46 am
>> the first is our gift to you. the second is a gift for you to give. >> as i mentioned, is a telecommunications billionaire gave a memorable speech at the class of 2024 commencement ceremony. robert hale junior gave $1,000 to each of the 1200 graduates at the university of massachusetts dartmouth, 500 for the graduate and the other 500 to give to a charity or person in need. the school honored him with a medal of philanthropy. well, a group of wisconsin high school students is gaining national attention for studying the ins and outs of personal finance. many people, unfortunately, don't learn about financial literacy until they're in a bind. however, at shorewood high school, the students are learning the importance of good financial habits early on, so they can make smart choices with their money in the future. >> no matter what career path you're looking into or what you want to do. like this is useful information for everyone to use. >> california, as you know, is making moves to make financial literacy classes required at all public high schools. backers are
8:47 am
pushing for this through the november ballot, and statewide legislation. >> 846 is your time weighing the benefits versus the risks of artificial intelligence continuing in san francisco, also shaping up already to be a busy week on wall street. >> pam cook has a lot to report in today's dollars and cents. >> yeah, it seems a little bit late since we're getting into the end of may, but we have more earnings reports coming in, investors waiting for some highly anticipated reports this week. topping the list is nvidia, which has been the darling of the nasdaq, and i, the bay area tech company reports earnings on wednesday. but that stock already up as that opening bell rang this morning. the dow started the week at more than 40,000 for the first time when the bell rang earnings will play a role into whether or not it can hang on to that level. some of the big retailers also report earnings this week, including target, lowe's, macy's and kohl's. and that is contour. the parent company of wrangler. and lee's ringing the opening bell to celebrate five years listed on the exchange. taking a live look at the dow jones, the nasdaq and the s&p 500. you can see the dow
8:48 am
sell at that 40,051 level up close to 50 points, the s&p 500 up a third of a percent and the nasdaq gaining almost 100 points, more than a half of a percent to 16,784. two top executives of openai are now on damage control. that is, following remarks from a former company leader who handed in his resignation last week. jan leak said safety has become a low priority for the artificial intelligence company and that drove him to quit this past weekend, ceo sam altman and president greg brockman responded on social media. they said they are well aware of the hazards of allowing artificial intelligence to get out of control. the uk expanding its ai testing efforts and coming to san francisco to make that happen. the uk's ai safety institute is opening a new office in the city this summer. the goal is to study the risks and the potential benefits of ai from a global lens. government officials in the uk say they chose the bay area because it is
8:49 am
home to some of the world's leading ai companies. this comes as the ai safety summit kicks off in south korea later this week, and governor gavin newsom made delay an upcoming pay raise for california health care workers. that raise would phase in a $25 minimum wage for the state's lowest paid health care workers beginning june 1st. newsom, however, says the pay raise could cost the state billions of dollars. supporters of the raise argue the state would only have to pay a fraction of that. i'm pam cook, that's a look at your dollars and cents. all right, pam, thank you so much. >> 848 now we use our cell phones every day as it buzzes or rings for our attention, communication experts say it's important to remember etiquette when out in public. experts recommend being conscious of what you talk about on the phone while you're around other people. if you don't have headphones and watch your volume levels, don't snap photos of people you don't know. and when you're talking to someone face to face, it's best to put your phone away. >> we have found that when
8:50 am
you're engaging in interaction with other people, well, if the other person is on their device and not paying attention and not present in that interaction, that it can be distressing for the individual, the other individual, yes. >> unless the person you're talking to is also on their phone. be present and save your screen time for later and you know, i guess it's just a good reminder. you know, you shouldn't do that. your mom would not be happy if she saw you. no, no, i always remember that. what would my mom say? or my dad? >> it's a good question to sort of. it's a good check for yourself. yeah. >> you know, like, just what would my mom or, you know, or my whoever raised me do, right? i remember that. and my dad would. yeah. >> these days he wouldn't do that back then. he may have done that. >> yeah. back then it was totally legal. i think. i don't know. >> now it's a different thing. meanwhile, sal is head down on his phone. >> i hope you're checking traffic, sal. >> you know, i did that for
8:51 am
effect, but lots of times it's for real because this thing has become i even i can look up traffic. i can do anything on this. so that's the thing. >> they talk to each other, bro. >> yeah. you have to be aware. all right, let's go to the south bay and talk about the commute, which usually starts later for that silicon valley today it's been sort of mild. we've had a couple of things. but for the most part it hasn't been all that slow. we would have had a good commute had it not been for that crash in walnut creek southbound 680 at ignacia valley road. you know, it made a good commute for highway 24 drivers and 880 is beginning to get better. and look at the bay bridge. we're getting a lot better here at the bay bridge. i wouldn't say it's been an enchanted commute, but i'll take what i can get on a monday 850. let's bring steve back in with today's weather. >> not in my wildest dreams sounded. i think it would clear out that fast. >> right? i know what you mean. i know it all too well. thank you sir. >> all right. there's a little bit of fog hanging on, but i must say, you can look up anything there on your phone, on
8:52 am
twitter. i still call it twitter. still santa cruz, watsonville, gilroy, morgan hill. there's not much left, but that's about all there is, 50s on the temps. although look at vacaville and brentwood. they do have a northerly breeze. therein lies the rub, if you will, because that's. those will be the warmest temps. i don't think this fog is going to last too much longer, because we're getting high pressure for about two days. honestly, it's just a little bit of a northerly breeze . if it wasn't for that, we'd probably be even about 3 to 5 degrees cooler than some of the forecast highs. but inland temps will get a little bump up today, tomorrow, maybe wednesday, and then they come right back down. another system is going to drop into the east and north, and the water temps are incredibly cold. so i don't think fog is too far away. but the next couple of days favors more sunshine. 60s, 70s and 80s on those temps. warmer tuesday wednesday starts to level off and cooling continues. thursday probably big time cooling. friday. saturday. >> thank you steve. this morning we've been watching for your thoughts following that report on another blue origin flight going up into space. the space tourism is becoming more common. we will check in on the action.
8:53 am
