good morning. i want to take you back to sky 7 now. we are over a major traffic problem this has been going on

since 4:10 this morning. eden canyon road. unfortunately this is a fatal crash and it all started off with some calls in to chp that a tractor-trailer broke down that was sitting in the left center lane. then a crash that involved a sedan and another semi. it was pinned between the two ptrucks. unfortunately, that person did not survive. the investigation ongoing. it always takes several hours. right now traffic wise we are looking at a really tough situation. only the off ramp is open to eden canyon road. all of 580 shut down. all of these folks are waiting to get off on to the off ramp. about an 11-mile backup at this point. we are looking at long delays back into the dublin area. it's well past 680 tip.

the surface street that runs the surface street that runs parallel and head north on 680. head into the sunol area. amy, how is it looking now? >> reporter: we're moving. we've gone 0.3 of a mile in an hour. we just witnessed two big rigs slam into each other. one rear-ended the other. they both hopped out of their truck, checked it out, no damage. a terrible situation here and then take a look at this video of what people are willing to do to get out of it. people on the shoulder trying to escape this terrible gridlock. and try to get on with their day and this is what they're trying to escape.

we've been sitting or these people have been sitting in this maybe up to two hours and aren't making much progress at all. if you avoid this area with the chp expected to be out here for an hours as they investigate this fatality. you will barely move here in the dublin area so you may as well go around or stay home. amy hollyfield, abc 7 news. >> we've been seeing the craziest video this morning. people on the shoulder going in reverse trying to get out of that traffic. >> we'll look at our weather and mike nicco. >> reggie, natasha, i've overlaid the clouds. very light. here is a look at 280 and san jose.

a little bit cooler. check out the upper 60s. you might need to grab a coat. by 7:00 we're at 62 to 66 degrees. reggie, natasha? officers responded to a prowl e prowler and gunshots. >> reporter: we're in a very high-profile neighborhood. behind me is the prune yard and then highway 17 and the los gatos creek area. this gunman fired shots and then he hopped over the fence and that's where chp officers spotted him. here is what happened next. >> roll over on your stomach and keep your hands where we can see them. >> reporter: the officers shut down the area during this standoff. eventually the man was arrested.

this was a frightening night. the gunshots, 8 to 12 of them, and a row bow call telling them to shelter indoors and call police. that shelter in place was lifted around 4:00 a.m. bullet holes were found along with shell casings and campbell police were out here until at least the sun comes up. they need to see if they can spot them in this neighborhood. reporting live, matt keller, abc 7 news. >> on to more local news, uc berkeley doing everything it can to keep the peace in a speech by ben shapiro. >> previous speeches have resulted in this, violence, protests in the streets that have gone out of control. they formed a perimeter. now bancroft will be shut down now bancroft will be shut down as a precaution.

they promise to confront anyone. refuse fascism is calling for a nonviolent speakout outside the event. 76 faculty members at cal are calling for a boycott of classes during free speech month. steve bannon and ann coulter are set to speak. they want the school to cancel classes and all campus buildings in protest. president trump responding. >> the president met with nancy pelosi and chuck schumer last night. the democrats came out and said they reached an agreement to beef up border security and provide legal status for 800,000 immigrants brought to the country illegally as children. they said the package did not include money for a border wall. but then the president went to twitter a few hours ago and wrote no deal was made last night on daca.

massive border security in exchange for consent would be subject to a vote. he wrote, does anybody want to throw out good, educated and accomplished young people who have jobs, some serving in the military. really? confusing if an agreement gets reached, congress will still have to approve. pittsburg police arrest add woman in connection with a fatal hit-and-run. angela spikes was the driver of a car that hit and killed a 40-year-old woman. it happened on railroad avenue. the cause is still under investigation. a lawsuit is expected to be filed against b.a.r.t. in connection with the robbery in april. an estimated 50 to 60 teenagers swarmed a train at the coliseum station robbing passengers.

four people victimized are part of the lawsuit. two others have also joined the suit. >> the state assembly has approved a plan to rage area bridge tolls by up to $3. it heads to the senate. if approved and signed by the governor the proposal would be on the ballot in june or november of next year. more than 600,000 vehicles enter and exit on any given weekday and he says that number will only grow. the money raised would pay for improvements to reduce congestion on bridge corridors. it would cost weekday commuters as much as $700 more a year. helping police arrest a suspect on an attack by a woman. a photo of 36-year-old sherry on social media. the tip led officers to her. they say she hit and kicked a 67-year-old woman.

the victim is expected to be okay. people in almeida can use the water to shower and bathe. don't drink it. the bathing restriction was lifted yesterday. homeowners are warned to let the water run for ten minutes to flush out the pipes. officials are waiting for more tests. east bay mud says they think it was contaminated by a leak. before the legislative session ends tomorrow scott weiner plans to ask colleagues to reconsider his safe injection bill. that bill would allow san francisco to open up safe sites francisco to open up safe sites for drug addicts to use. >> cracking down on property owners who violate the ban on advertising short-term rentals.

the city will begin notifying property owners who violate the ban on october 1st. violators have 15 days from the date of notice to stop advertising their property or any part of it. neighbors complained about the noise, garbage and traffic that renters bring. beer and wine bottles could be banned. the city's board of supervisors will debate the plan next week. it's the result of the persistent trashing of delores park. the safety committee signed off yesterday. they scratched it for littering. that could unfairly penalize low-income residents. take you back live to sky 7. i'll step out of the way now that we have more daylight here on 580. at eden canyon road and castro valley you see the mess they are dealing with. this is a huge problem that started around 4:10 this morning.

you see that first big rig that was actually clipped, hit by a sedan and that is why that rig became disabled. that second big rig hit that and we don't know how fast but obviously it was enough to cause a really serious collision here this morning. there's a fuel spill involved and about an 11-mile backup. that goes well beyond 680 at this point so whatever you do, do not get on westbound 580. more alternate options in a few minutes. i want to check in on the bay bridge commute. let's check in on our forecast with mike nicco. good morning, mike. >> good morning, alexis. the transition to cooler overnights beginning this morning.

that puts us 56 in saratoga. 55 in los gatos. cupertino, everybody else around 60 to 65 in the south bay. everybody else about 60 to 65 degrees. here is a look at what's going on. san mateo bridge looking west into the abyss of fog that's out there. mass transit comfy. if you're going to be on the bay it will be breezy, about 9:00 this morning. about 3:00 this afternoon, south of the bay bridge. mid-70s in the east bay. about 70 to 74 around the bay in mid to upper 60s along the coast and into san francisco and sausalito. tomorrow inland. everybody else about the same and warmer for saturday. mid to upper 80s inland.

i can tell you it is certainly trending on social media right now. >> lots of people talking about what a gift from her friend. thanks for bringing that to us. age 18 remains the age to vote. the amendment to loerp the age to 17 did not get the super majority it needed to pass the assembly. evan lowe, who represents the south bay, authored the amendment. in the 2014 general election only 8% of voters aged 18 to 24 cast ballots. legislation to spare us from springing forward and falling back every year will be reintroduced in january. san jose assemblyman shoo will have them take up his bill when they reconvene in 2018. he says research shows there's an uptick if work place accidents when the time change happens. a similar bill was rejected over concerns about the impact on businesses and putting california an extra hour behind other states for half the year. happening today a free eve being held for job seekers in

with our typical delays looking better as well. so not a lot of great options. mass transit is one of those for you as well. b.a.r.t., no delays this morning, and you can catch an ace rail, too. in the meantime one new problem here right around sfo, southbound 101 past milbrae avenue, a car crash blocking three lanes. so that is another bad spot if that continues to be blocking for much longer. we'll keep an eye on that one, too. let's check in with mike nicco with a look at our forecast. we'll start with your school day forecast, 59 to 62. a little bit of drizzle this morning but then look at the sunshine. 64 around the coast. 71 to 75 this afternoon for our bay and inland neighbors. get outside and enjoy. the sun is almost up. the cloud cover that's giving us the drizzle but then the dry air comes in and brings us sunshine this afternoon. fewer clouds. much cooler tonight, 40s and 50s, and seasonal highs, then
