running. and again, that's when police tell us that he reached for a gun, did not comply and the officer fired at him. they are not saying exactly why he ran. the two other people in the car spent the evening at the police department being interviewed. that officer is on paid administrative leave which is standard and the district attorney's office here is investigating what happened as well as the san pablo police department. that's the latest here. reporting live, christie smith, today in the east bay. >> thank you. before you hit the road a pencil and paper. we have information about an amber alert in effect for a 4-year-old who might end up in the bay area. authorities say the boy, juliani cardenas, was taken in paterson south of tracy yesterday afternoon. he's hispanic, black hair, brown eyes, dark pants and light blue shirt. the suspect is 27-year-old jose esteban rodriguez.
