well. i will jump over and take you to the maps to show you how slow it is. major delays through berkeley with two accidents along the stretch. i also wanted to talk about a crash heading to the san mateo bridge. you can see traffic backed up in all directions am southbound 880 near if you are heading to the san mateo bridge southbound 880 stretch is now slow. you may want to consider b.a.r.t. reporting no delays or head over to the san francisco bay ferry as well and the richmond san rafael bridge looking good at this point. >> what a mess. thank you, frances. we have crews trying to get to the crash but traffic approaching that crash is a total nightmare. >> they're stuck in the nightmare, too. to reporter jobina fortson. she's been trying to get across the bridge for the

so. what do you see? >> reporter: jessica and natasha, just for some context i put in o to the station on front street about 5.4 miles. it says at this point it will take us an hour and ten minutes to get there. we know that's usually a quick drive from here. now we can see why. you can see the backup to the flashing lights that are off in the distance. i'm using my phone so, unfortunately, we're not able to zoom in as closely. this is stemming from a collision between a box truck and a transit bus. the chp said the collision was first reported at 4:28 this morning just east of treasure island and alameda county. the crash was reported around 4:45, traveling eastbound.

tried to make a turnaround and it just wasn't going to happen. i'm going to bring you around the corner here so you can see the back yum behind us. we are in the car-pool lane right now. we did get to talk with a spokesperson about the injuries in the crash. >> there are three people with some form of injury on the bus. there may be more people on the bus. i don't know the total number yet. we also don't nope the know thef those injuries. we should have more information coming up soon. >> reporter: back out here live you can see, again, this approach to the toll plaza completely backed up all the way, well into the maze. and actually i see a live truck off to the left, i think amy hollyfield over there. at this point we do not have an estimate as to when the three westbound lanes will reopen. for now reporting live, jobina

called the circle game but in recent years has taken on a different meaning after white supremacists began using it as a sign of white power. the yearbook was released last week. a parent notified the photo and alerted the school. >> it made me feel pretty sick, and then i also just wasn't surprised. i've lived here for ten years, and it feels like we're in a bubble here that nothing bad happens, but i know from talkinging to other people who aren't white that discrimination is happening all over the place and that it's especially a problem in our schools. >> a parent noticed the photo and notified the school. the district says they are photo shopping the symbol out and will distribute a new sticker version to cover the original. the district says the students involved have been disciplined. another live look at the bay bridge toll plaza right now. a terrible crash left a person dead, three people hurt, and it is causing this backup for

we've been tracking and we just got new information from chp telling us there were three people inside the box truck and that box truck rear-ended the bus. we learned that the person who died in the crash was actualitily onboard the bus. so three people were on the bus that got injured -- three people were hurt. so one of those, that was our initial information. one of the passengers have died and two others have serious injuries. some new information from chp. we don't know exactly how many people were onboard that transit bus at the time of the crash. you see a very large scene still on the bay bridge. the upper deck heading into san francisco. heavy police presence. the coroner also called out to the scene and we have crews on the way as well and we're tracking the backup for you.

we continue following breaking news. sky 7 is live over a deadly crash that is causing major backup on the bay bridge. the crash involves a box truck

and a golden gate transit bus. now we have learned one person has died and actually four people are injured so the number of people hurt has gone up. >> officials tell us the box truck rear-ended the bus just before 4:30 this morning. the backups goes for miles and miles. frances, what is the latest? you saw how badly it was backed up. you can see with sky 7 and several accidents in the backup leading to the maze. another shot as we look from our emeryville camera. a new one just reported. people are losing their patience and it's getting worse. a live look at the san mateo bridge also shows slow traffic heading westbound as well. so let me show you alternates because this is causing major

delays, westbound 580, northbound 880, westbound 80 because of the sig alert on the bay bridge. there are several accidents on westbound 80 from albany, berkeley to the maze. traffic is also jammed westbound 580 through richmond as ybridge. and southbound 880 very heavy through san lorenzo and hayward down to westbound 92 for the san mateo bridge as another alternate. the san francisco bay ferry is another alternate. the ac transit service has major delays and we're also seeing delays on the capital corridor service as well and they're asking folks to transfer as an alternate. >> thank you. crews on the ground tracking these delays as well for us. >> jobina fortson is at the bay bridge. i think you were approach the toll plaza the last time. what are you seeing now?

>> reporter: natasha and jessica, we finally made it minutes ago. i'm going to show you what we see now here. i will flip the camera around so the traffic is moving a hair faster on the opposite side of the toll plaza. we know the lane we are sitting in is blocked ahead of us as well as two additional lanes so there are only two open. as frances was mentioning this morning use an alternative route if you can. this is stemming from a collision between a box truck and golden gate transit bus. one person has died and officials say four others were hurt and taken to the hospital. the collision was first reported at 4:28 just east of treasure island in unincorporated alameda county.

this is as far as we were able to get. we have watched people watch television shows while sitting in traffic as well as even pull over to relieve themselves in the bushes. painting a picture of how long it's taking to get through all of this. back to the pace we are moving here as well and, again, no time frame as to when those lanes will reopen. reporting live abc 7 news. >> jobina, thank you. traffic nightmare this morning. our team is sending out push alerts to keep you updated on the go. get the latest on this crash. helng sp side shows, last night an oakland city

council committee considered recommendations in the report. oakland police revealed that a man participating in a sideshow died on april 7th after he was hurt by a car. the review says large side shows require a response of at least 100 officers and cites a task force for helping break up the events but they can't always rely on the aid because of staffing issues. testimony continues today in the ghost ship fire trial. jurors heard from the mother of a man who co-signed the warehouse lease with defendant derick almena yesterday, and she says, the mother there, kaitlyn bouchard said her son called her several times in tears saying he wanted to leave the artist collective but almena would talk him into staying. she also said almena laughed when she asked him to get the building up to code. >> negotiations are set to resume today as the strike in the new haven unified school district enters its seventh day.

>> we want leadership now. >> those are striking teachers who showed up at the school board meeting last night and the board got up and left the room amidst all the chanting. police showed up to make sure things didn't get out of hand. the union had been seeking a 10% raise over two years. now it's lowered that demand to 7%. new evidence this morning that san francisco sales force transit center could be close to reopening. "the chronicle" reports they are bringing in workers to make sure the building's elevators and escalators are working. it has been closed eight months since cracked beams were found inside the facility. no date set but "the chronicle" says it could reopen by the end of june. still ahead, alex trebek's, quote, mind-boggling results from one of his cancer treatments, an update on the jeopardy host's health this morning. a live look at the big board. we're down 171 points.

another update on how the markets are doing in a moment. we've had big traffic issues. we want you to get a check of your weather with lisa argen. good morning, lisa. we're looking live at our best bay hills camera. some of the low clouds and the high clouds so we'll call it partly cloudy. partly cloudy in san jose, on the peninsula but looking better past the golden gate bridge where we have 52 in the city. 53 in oakland. 55 in mountain view. santa cruz at 51. the haze here with a little bit of that morning light will go mostly sunny today. 64 in san francisco. 50 in santa rosa. 55 in napa with the clouds and upper 50s vacaville, concord, livermore. so if you're heading out, dry pavement. things are looking good for the commute out of the north bay. san mateo bridge, mass transit, no problem.

small craft advisory inside the bay. a little bit of a breeze for your afternoon commute perhaps. we're sunny, we have showers in the sierra nevada and a weak system riding into the north will allow for more clouds in the north bay tomorrow. we're not going to heat up anymore on your thursday. in fact, could see extra cloud cover north of wine country. so today 80s for concord, cooler tomorrow. look at the trend this is for the rest of the bay area, too. a dip on sunday and then looking at much warmer weather into next week so enjoy the 70 in the east bay with mid-70s up in san rafael and, boy, it's been a crazy morning for you. >> it's been horrible for commuters heading to the bay bridge. that's one spot you'll want to avoid because of the fatal crash. e butheon the roadduty itea a long-term investigation so the three right lanes blocked for some time. only the two left lanes open.

traffic ze and, in fact, we hav accidents in the backup. there was one at the toll plaza. a couple at powell. you can see one here near the gore point, one that has been cleared as well. so everything headed westbound is very slow. a your alternates are slow across the bridge. in fact, it is jammed, still a crawl from berkeley in emeryville, also westbound 580 heavy from oakland as well as northbound 880 and then if you're heading across the richmond/san rafael bridge, westbound 580 through richmond it does pick up once you get across the bridge. a slow and go ride with an earlier crash as well near a street and then slow on westbound 92. so your best options at this point b.a.r.t. trains reported on time. the francoeur bay ferry reporting no delays and ac transit has major delays. in fact, even affecting the capital corridor.

>> just a rough morning on the roads. we want to stay on top of that breaking news and more on the bay bridge crash. we have bert diaz with an update. hi, bert. >> good morning. >> what can you tell us about -- in terms of the fatality and the injuries? we understand one person died on the bus after it was rear-ended by the box truck, and are there four injuries total at this point that we're tracking? >> yes, so that report is inaccurate. at about 4:30 this morning we got a call about a collision involving a bus and a box truck. both vehicles were traveling westbound 80 just east of the san francisco/oakland county line. they were both within the number five lane, the slowest lane of travel. looks like the preliminary investigation shows the bus might have been slowing to traffic ahead. as it got rear-ended by the box truck. the box truck immediately rolled on to its left side. there were three occupants

within the cabin of the box truck, a driver and two other passengers, all males. the driver and another passenger of the box truck were transported to the hospital with serious injuries and, unfortunately, one of the passengers inside the box truck did succumb to his injuries and was pronounced deceased. >> so, officer diaz, we've had conflicting reports. you're confirming now it was a passenger in the box truck that has died in this crash? because earlier we heard it was someone on the transit bus. >> that's correct, yes, it was a passenger traveling inside the box truck that was pronounced deceased. as of right now the reports we have are there were two passengers that were inside the bus that complained of pain on scene. however, they were not transported. as of right now none of the passengers inside the bus were transported. >> okay. can you give us any more information on the victims, the ones that are suffering serious

injuries? you said adult males. do you have any information on the passengers on the bus as well? >> i do not. we do not have extent of injuries for the driver and for the passengers inside the box truck. we do know that our crews are still out there. cal trans and chp are still out there on scene trying to make the scene safe. unfortunately, the box truck did spill 40 gallons of diesel and that's causing part of the delay that cal trans wants to make sure the roads are safe. >> in light of the new information that it did spill some content, what is the estimate here, do you have one at this point on how long this is going to take to clean up? >> yeah, unfortunately, we do not have an estimated time of opening. we have a few things going on. obviously it's commute hours and we understand that we need to get the roads open. public safety is the number one concern. i want to make sure that the road is safe. we have another absorbent out

there to absorb the 40 gallons of diesel that were spilled and also a thorough investigation and make sure that we take any vehicles that need to be taken for evidence and/or towed away properly. we don't have an estimated time. i know everyone is out there, all hands on deck, trying to make the scene safe and get the roadways cleared. >> with that spilled diesel is this considered a hazmat situation now? >> yeah, i mean, anytime we have fluids out there, it's a situation where we as traffic safety officers and cal trans wants to make sure the roads are safe and is not a hazmat issue and doesn't get worse than it is. luckily cal transis out there with absorbent and the roads should be good to go at a later time today. >> all right, diaz with chp, thank you for the
