6:01 pm
cause more problems. >> reporter: this is video over mcveigh and hubbard in east san jose. crews were called do a house and vegetation fire this afternoon. they believe wires went down and started the blaze. fire crews were in full force working in the intense afternoon heat and cooling off anyway they can. officials say two homes were on fire. one of them was next door to the residents who called 9-1-1. >> i was on my deck working and looking over the valley and then i heard some loud popping noises. and i thought, ooh, that's not good. after a little while, maybe 15, 30 seconds or so, i saw some flames start and that's when i called it in. >> reporter: many in the neighborhood couldn't get back into their homes right away. >> i'm really worried about my dog right now. we have three english bulldogs in there. they're probably really hot. the ac is off. >> my friend lives this street but i live right there by the fire. trying to make sure i'm not

6:03 pm
because it's so hot at this moment. let's look at the high temperatures, including record highs for this date. nine of them so far. maybe more will be officially reported later. 100 in pitfield. 100 in richmond. all records from this date. 99 in san jose and sfo. also record highs for this date. 85 at half moon bay. notice, there are other locations inland that were even higher. not records, but still hot all across the region with numerous triple digit highs. you can see it's 102 at brentwood and fairfield. 99 at san ramon. 90 in oakland and san francisco. almost ten minutes past 6:00. we have an excessive heat warning until 9:00 tonight for most of lake county and solano county and the inland communities like concord, brentwood, san ramon and livermore. and we have a heat advisory in effect until 9:00 p.m. for the remainder of the bay area, with the ex senception of the coast,
6:04 pm
area outlined in orange. relief is not far away, i'll tell you in a few minutes. dan and ama. the warriors dodged elimination last night in toronto. what a cost. with the win comes the loss of kevin durant. >> try to stay with durant. durant is open, he goes down holding his leg. >> it was durant's first game back from a calf injury. this time he injured his achilles. many athletes have sent well wishes, tiger woods he knows what durant is going through. >> you can see it on his face. how solemn his face was. when things pop, you just know. it's an awful feeling. no one can help you. >> abc 7 news reporter liz crate spoke with a former warriors physician to get his take on what happened. she's live with that story. liz? >> reporter: hi, dan. here at the chase center where we know the warriors will play next year, hopefully with kevin durant, that doctor we talked to defended the team physician's
6:05 pm
choice -- there's questions about what happened last night and what happens next. it was a bittersweet victory. >> i think i was tearing up. >> the warriors nailbiter win over the toronto raptors overshadowed by this moment. kevin durant limping off the court. he played game 5 of the fiejs monday after sitting out for 30 days recovering from a calf injury. now he could be out longer. >> my guess is he'll be out for, six months to a year. >> he's the former orthopedic physician for the warriors. we asked him for his play-by-play take on the moment he was injured. >> as you see, he plants to accelerate as he's going towards the top of the key. as he plants that right foot down, his heel goes down as he's accelerating forward. if you watch that video, that's probably when the injury occurred is the first step. as he goes to plant and turns his back, he plants again on his right foot, that's when he drops the ball and i'm suspicious at this moment is when he realized he hurt it on the planting just prior to that step.
6:06 pm
>> in a tearful press conference after the game, warriors general manager bob meyers says durant suffered an injury to his achilles, the same leg as his calf injury. he had clearance from the doctors to retun to the court but offered to take the blame. >> i don't believe there's anybody to blame. but i understand this world and if you have to, you can blame me. i run our operations department. >> five weeks is a reasonable time to recover from a calf injury. achilles injury takes longer. but he believes durant would make a comeback. >> i don't see a reason to believe he won't play again. >> reporter: the doctor says he's seen no research that says having a calf injury makes you more susceptible to an achilles injury. we should learn more soon. kevin durant is expected to have an mri today.

6:08 pm
residents feel about the sal salesfor salesforce. a crack was found on a beam and another one. no bus service yet. >> i think it's pretty ridiculous. one of the biggest problems in san francisco is the transit system. i think it's always delayed and it being continually delayed. >> the question that many are asking, it opens july 1st. but why not transit service? >> we had to remove ceiling panels and covers in order to inspect the facility. we need time to put the column covers back, reinstall the ceiling panels before we can allow the operators to use the bus plaza. >> after eight months of an intense inspection, authority says it's all been fixed. is the building right now 100% safe? >> yes, it's 100% safe and has been probably reviewed and looked at more than any other building in the city. >> reporter: metropolitan transportation commission confirmed that the panel of
6:09 pm
international experts and construction signed off on had last night at 7:00 p.m. no more cracks? >> well, look, there are cracks and then there are cracks that matter. there's nothing perfect in any structure. so they reviewed any potential problem in that building and are very confident that the building is safe. not only that, but they're putting in sensors so they can measure the building as it flexes, as the buses use it. >> reporter: louis pena, abc 7 news. we've been checking every single day since it shut down. you can see what it's taken to get the center ready to reopen by reading through this timeline on our website, abc7news.com. the city of san francisco is police department and the police chief were slapped with a lawsuit today filed by officers who say they were discriminated against in the promotions process. abc 7 news reporter vic lee is live with the story for us tonight. vic? >> reporter: ama, there was a similar lawsuit filed in the city against the san francisco city and the san francisco

6:11 pm
>> promotions to sergeants, lieutenants and captains are based on civil service exams. in certain cases the chief can factor in special skills like education, training, awards, something called secondary criteria. gender and race cannot be considered. the lawsuit alleges chief william scott has been doing just that. >> at the end of a lenl it mat promotionalal process, the chief administration bastardizes the process to pick who they want. why give an exam in the first place? >> the officers in the lawsuit say this is not about race or gender, that it's about a level playing field. >> the reason they came up with civil service exams like this was to avoid nepotism, favoritism and racial inequality to begin with. >> police union president tony montoya says his group is not a party to the suit but wants the exams to be the sole criteria in promotions. >> if you go rank order appointments, meaning you promote those who scored the highest first and move down the list, you can't go wrong. >> reporter: the san francisco

good evening. the warriors flew back to the bay area. but kevin durant flew to new york to get an m richlt i on his injured achilles tendon. it could mean surgery and rehab of nine to 12 months. it's amazing how quickly things can change. for weeks, we heard people chirping about how long durant was taking too long to come back on what was described as a calf injury. some of the same people are pointing the finger at the warriors for pushing him to come back too soon. the warriors along with his physician game the thumbs up for his return. the notion that durant was somehow forced out on to the court against his will is just
6:52 pm
ridiculous. or that he was listening to the twitter trolls and wanted to answer his critics. come on, kevin durant, if we know anything about him, this is a guy who loves basketball. it's life to him. he wanted to play and unfortunately, paid a really hefty price for that injury. game 6, it will be the last game ever at oracle one way or the other. warriors and raptors thursday night, pre-game at 5:00. tipoff at 6:00. only here on abc 7. by the way, kevin durant's mother wanda will be on "good morning america" tomorrow morning here on abc 7. perhaps with more insight into what's going on with k.d. right now. the warriors are going to play game 6 on thursday. the 119th u.s. open will begin that day at pebble beach. tiger woods set the open scoring record 19 years ago. although he's not the favorite, he will certainly draw a crowd and tiger knows all too well about injuries. he's had plenty. he shared his thoughts on durant. >> it was sad. as athletes, we've all been
6:53 pm
there, that spot when you just know it. and i've been there. i know what it feels like. it's an awful feel and there's no one can help you. why do we do it? because we're competitors. our job is to make the human body do something it was never meant to do and do to do it efficiently and better than anyone else doing it at the same time. things sometimes go awry. we saw it last night with kevin. on to football. jon gruden and the gm spent years in television. they're going to be on tv again in the fall. the raiders will be featured on hard knocks. the raiders this week hold iing a mini-camp. having cameras around in training camp will not necessarily help this. but chuck, he clearly has bigger concerns. >> i just hope i live one more year, you know, quite honestly. we're trying to worry about this team, this week. we got a lot of adversity we're
6:54 pm
facing right now with this team. we got a lot of distractions. i think we're playing in three countries. i think we go about two months without a home game. we're in a process to move them. we're going to try like crazy to keep all of our best players as we head to las vegas. >> as for the niners, they're also opening a mini-camp. jimmy garoppolo on track to return. still a question who will be the number 2 quarterback. head coach kyle shanahan says they don't have to make that decision right now and are hopeful that a healthy jimmy g makes that question a moot point. >> these guys have both proven they can play in this league and we'll have to make a tough decision who to give the number 2 job to. you don't get to compete very much in the season. there's reps, things like that. you hope jimmy stays healthy. it's irrelevant who is the number 2 guy. calla lum alex morgan and the u.s. women's soccer team in the world cup against thailand. this was not a fair fight.
6:55 pm
morgan opens up the scoring. the flood gates open from there. make it 5-0. the u.s. scoring four goals in 6:00 at one point, which is a tournament record. morgan did not stop at three or four. she had five goals in one match. only the second time that's happened in cup history. the u.s. rolls over thailand. the final was 13-0. and that is a tournament record for goals and margin of victory. team usa will play chile next. one more note on kevin durant. the mri results will either be known later tonight or perhaps tomorrow morning. >> we'll see. he went to new york because of a specialist there? >> i'm assuming for -- have his people handle it and get a look at what's going on. >> okay. >> all right. thank you so much, larry. well, join us tonight at 9:00 on kofi tv 20. tesla's elon musk making big promises tonight. what to expect from the electric car maker at 9:00. on abc news at 11:00, rvs
6:56 pm
lining the streets of one silicon valley neighborhood. can city leaders find a safe space for them to park as they consider a new ban tonight. >> a lot more on the evening broadcast tonight. here's the lineup tonight on abc 7 at 8:00. catch the bachelorette followed by press your luck. that's at 10:00. then stay with us for abc 7 news at 11:00. >> as always, jimmy kimmel live is after us at 11:35. tonight's guests include jada pinkett smith. that's this edition of abc 7 news. look for breaking news on the abc 7 news app. i'm dan ashley. >> i'm ama daetz. for spencer christian and larry beil. we hope you have a great and cool evening. >> see you later. >> i'm hoping for that.
