that community still in shock. >> the shooting happened at oikos university, a small, private university that caters to the korean community. that's where christie smith joins us live this morning with how the campus has responded. >> reporter: good morning, i just spoke with oakland police who are still out here at oikos university, the entire school still behind yellow crime scene tape, which shows the gravity of the horror that went on yesterday. what they're telling me now is they have had a chance to speak with the suspect in this case and in their opinion, he is not remorseful about what happened here yesterday. a shooting rampage that left seven people dead, three wounded. they're telling me that the deceased includes six women and one man. he is a former student, originally from korea, he came to the school yesterday looking for a female administrator he was upset with and took a

receptionist hostage and went into classrooms, lined people up and started shooting. >> we don't know exactly how the sequence took place. we knew when we got there, officers found several victims throughout the classroom, throughout the building, there was several people hiding in locked buildings, locked doors behind desks. >> now, of the three injured, i'm told two are still hospitalized this morning but are expected to be okay. police tell me they believe the suspect used a .45 caliber weapon. what they're saying is contrary to early reports, they're telling me that's not true and they're going to spend part of the day searching waterways around where we are near the airport looking for that weapon. they're also telling me they plan to have an update on the situation some time later this morning. reporting live in oakland, christie smith, "today in the

bay." >> thank you, christie. >> well, the suspect eventually turned himself in at a neighborhood safeway store about five miles from the scene of that shooting. one woman says the arrest was so calm out there, he thought he was being arrested for shoplifting. >> looked like at that time the police were checking his pockets and he had the same stance, he wasn't moving. he wasn't putting up any struggle. >> investigators towed a silver honda from the parking lot, the car they believe goh was driving. the gunman always seemed a little unstable. >> she says he wasn't all there. >> another victim also told her brother-in-law the alleged shooter seemed a little off. police talked to that suspect. she's not been formally charged. does not seem remorseful, but he is in oakland police custody. bob redell joins us live from oakland this morning.

do we know anything more about a possible motive for this heinous crime? >> reporter: we're getting a better idea, i guess you could say. after interrogating goh, the oakland police department expects to file charges against the 43-year-old suspect some time tomorrow. as you're aware, police arrested him a few miles away from the scene of the shooting just a short time after the shooting took place. as for a possible motive, fellow students tell us that the former nursing student who was a south korea national didn't fit in at the college because of a language barrier, and we are learned he was apparently upset at the school for having expelled him. the oakland police chief says he walked in, took a receptionist hostage and demanded to see a female administrator he was not happy with. he then lined the victims up against the wall and shot them execution style. it's not clear whether the receptionist or administrator were among those shot.

the nbc bay area investigative unit has dug into goh's background and found he was struggling with significant debt and has been dealing with the loss of his mother and brother, both of whom died within the past year. the unit has also confirmed that law enforcement is looking into whether a 45 caliber automatic gun is the same one he purchased legally last week at a gun shop in castro valley. as for the debt, the irs has issued two liens against goh totaling more than $23,000. and there are two judgments against him totaling more than $10,000. reporting live, bob redell, "today in the bay." two surviving victims remain hospitalized this morning. and we've got an update from oakland police telling us both victims remain in stable condition. a third survivor released from the hospital last night tells her story in about half hour from right now. the shooting marking the

most devastating mass murder in the bay area in almost 20 years. the worst in recent memory happened back in 1993 when a businessman killed eight employees at the san francisco law office known as 101 california. and just last october, a man opened fire on his co-workers at a cement plant in cupertino. back in 2009, a man shot and killed two oakland police officers during a traffic stop. he later killed two more during a gunfight. a memorial for yesterday's victims is planned for tonight at allen temple baptist church on international boulevard in oakland. stay with nbc bay area news for continuing coverage of the school shooting rampage. we'll update you throughout the morning and all day at nbcbayarea.com. crew members aboard a damaged yacht are finally back on dry land. their 68-foot long sailboat was whipped around by large waves and gus tip winds on saturday.

csu has already faced criticism for paying tuition or raising, that is, tuition for students. the board of trustees will discuss a salary freeze in may. >> i don't think we're going to freeze today. in fact, you're going to notice it's a little warmer heading out the door. >> yeah, it is. >> keep those umbrellas handy. >> and the reason why we're running a little bit warmer this morning, we've got more clouds coming in, and eventually that moisture should drop a little bit of shower activity by the afternoon. more clouds during the day. showers in the far north bay should start to sweep to the south by the evening commute. and tonight we'll see some showers and by this time tomorrow we hope we'll see clearing skies. we shouldn't see too much of an impact on tomorrow morning's commute. the winds picking up as the -- toward the evening commute, here's the cloud cover, and the rain still up on the north coast. this is going to drop into the north bay by early afternoon.

40s and low 50s, the temperatures in the south bay are going to warm up pretty good south of san jose but in the north bay, cooling into the afternoon, that's a sign the rain is flying there. san jose, 68 degrees, close to 70 around gilroy for this afternoon. before we see the showers stop, north to south, into this evening, tomorrow morning, perhaps a lingering shower or two, and look at the temperatures, we're cooling off for the middle part of the week and we'll warm up again as we go into the weekend, though, easter weekend looks pretty good. actually 60s and 70s, finally setting the best weather for the weekend into the week. >> thank you very much.

we have a crystal clear look at the bay bridge out there. traffic flowing smoothly so far. if you haven't opened a window or gotten outside, you'll notice a little bit nicer today start than it was yesterday that was a little brisk. rob mayeda at 5:13. >> yeah, we're enjoying it because we had all those recent downpours. may not have washed away some of the state's water problems, however. the sierra snow pack is only 55% of average. and unusually wet march didn't make much of a dent after so many dry months. now, despite the report, reservoirs are still at above average levels. the april measurements are considered important because this is when the snow pack is at its peak. i think we're relying on some of last year's. >> kind of the fourth quarter of a football game down by five touchdowns. it's tough to come back. >> hail marys. >> march did sttry. the numbers did come up. the automated reports close to what they found on site.

and statewide, 55% of average, it's the southern sierra, though, 39% of average, that's the dry section of the sierra compared to last year we had 155% plus of normal. this, again, is quite a dry year. despite the fact we had the march recovery and i think we're going to get more out of the system that moves later on tonight. right now this morning, kind of a mild start, you don't need a winter coat with these types of temperatures out there. 40s and 50s outside. it will turn breezy today. so as you dust off the umbrellas for the afternoon and evening showers, hang on a little bit. right now, the radar not picking up anything around the bay area. starting to see the rain on the north coast that's starting to drop down. for now, though, mainly the cloud cover in the bay area that will lead to the chance of scattered showers as this relatively weak front drops in by the evening. hour by hour, the forecast, you can see out here toward the evening commute. looks like we'll see a few of these showers drop in toward the tail end of the evening commute with the showers out of the south baby the late evening into

tomorrow morning. we hope this pattern holds. a quick clearing. rain totals not impressive at all around the bay area. perhaps more impressive for north of interstate 80 for the next 24 hours. maybe 1/2 foot of snow coming down. snow levels close to 26,000 feet tonight into tomorrow morning. around the bay area, at least south of san jose. still kind of mild for a day, but you'll notice the temperatures running a little bit cooler as you get up to concord and fairfield. 50s around san francisco and the coast and the north bay may warm up close to 60, but it'll turn cooler during the afternoon as we see some rain come in, mainly light rain at that. late today into early tomorrow. the trend still holds, though, as we get toward the weekend, we'll go from these cool temperatures to some of the nicest weather as we get into saturday and sunday. and here's mike. >> we'll take that for the weekend. right now, we'll take this for pittsburgh. it's off of the freeway. it is at riverside and joaquin

court. that won't be an issue for your main commute. but it's one of the few things going on in your highway 4. highway 4 itself, no major issues. but speeds coming down now into the 50s. rio vista bridge, but that bridge, roadwork oneway construction and traffic control through the course of the mornings this week. we're looking at the walnut creek interchange and a smooth drive through the caldecott, east shore freeway, 18 minutes down to the bay bridge toll plaza. let's get live looks and see how things are shaping up. easy flow and clear view right now. from the north bay, no delays through the tunnel and into the city. now, yesterday we had the games over at at&t park, today they're across the bay. let's get a look and see how things are shaping up for the volume of traffic. in through downtown, no delays, it's all the way down to 237. back to you. >> thank you very much, mike.

body mass index may be giving a false reading for about half of women and a small percentage of men. and there was a study conducted by women. bmi measures body fat based on height and weight. and many people were actually healthy. it was based on the public health department developing a new measurement system. don't they say if you pinch an inch kind of thing? another health study found kids not getting enough daily exercise. nearly half of preschool age children who are not in day care did not play outside. health experts say outdoor activity is important for both mental and physical development. get them out there in the backyard and run around. >> good excuse for parents to run around too. chasing the kids. the time now is 5:19. coming up, a setback for a south bay casino. this morning, it's cheaper to buy a share of groupon than it is to groupon.

that university is still completely taped off this morning. we have seen oakland police coming and going. in fact, the front doors still are wide open. i spoke with police this morning, and they're telling me they have had a chance to speak with the suspect who is in custody and in their opinion, he is not remorseful for what happened here yesterday morning. that suspect 43-year-old, an oakland resident and former student here originally from korea. the first 911 calls came in around 10:30 in the morning of a shooting with multiple victims. police tell us that he came to the school looking for a female administrator, ended up taking a receptionist hostage as he started searching the classroom that he lined up the victims, one-by-one, and started shooting, and according to one student's sister, he said get in line, i'm going to kill you all. as you can imagine, there was panic, complete chaos, officers say they had to force their way in to locked classrooms. >> we don't know exactly how the

sequence took place. we knew that when we got there, officers found several victims throughout the classroom, throughout the building. there was several people hiding in locked buildings, locked doors, behind desks. >> now, in all, seven people dead, three injured. police tell us of the deceased they include six women and one man. when officers arrived, they believed the shooter was still in the building so they extracted 13 people calling it an evacuation/rescue. police eventually got the suspect's name, went to his house but he ended up surrendering at a grocery store in alameda and oakland police telling us this morning that contrary to earlier reports that the gun was found, it was not. they say -- they believe it was a 45 caliber weapon, but they're still searching for it, in fact, they're going to get into some waterways around the airport today and continue looking for it. we're also told that oakland's police chief is on his way here

a possible motive for this crime? >> reporter: well, police haven't said anything officially, but we're getting a better picture from the information we've been able to gather. after interrogating one al goh, police expect to file charges some time tomorrow. as you heard christie mention, they arrested him a few miles a i way from the scene of the shooting at a safeway shop in alameda a short time after the shooting took place yesterday morning. the former nursing student at the school who is a south korean national didn't fit in at the college because of a language barrier. and we have learned that he was apparently upset at the school for having expelled him. now the nbc bay area investigative unit has dug into goh's background and found goh was struggling with significant debt and had been dealing with the loss of his mother and brother both of whom had died within the past year. the investigative unit has also confirmed that law enforcement is looking into whether the 45

caliber semiautomatic gun used yesterday is the same one he purchased legally last week at a gun shop in castro valley. as for the debt, the irs had issued two liens against goh in recent years totaling more than $23,000. there are also two judgments against him totaling more than $10,000. goh used to live in washington. no criminal record here, just a couple of minor traffic offenses. he had also bought fishing and hunting licenses in that state for a couple of years during the time he was there. reporting live here outside opd bob redell, "today in the bay." >> a memorial for the victims is planned for tonight at allen temple baptist church on international boulevard in oakland. and stay with nbc bay area news for continuing coverage of the school shooting and rampage. we will update you all morning and throughout the day at nbc bay area.com. in other news, a rally planned this morning where san francisco city leaders are

to dodge a few rain drops outside. this morning, it's kind of mild. we don't have any 30s on the map. the coldest place is santa rosa, 46 in napa, 50s a mild start, up toward navado and san jose, 48 degrees right now. one thing you will notice through the afternoon especially as you drive across the mid span of the bay bridge or the san mateo bridges, it's going to turn gusty later on today. 15 to 30 miles per hour. radar scans around the bay area right now look dry, but as we go up to the north coast, this is the rain line will be watching that will weaken as it dives into the north bay as early as lunchtime and then slowly works its way through the south. our temperatures are mild. we've got the clouds coming in, will bill it of a southwest breeze picking up out ahead of the frontal system. and this is going to ring out a few rain drops at times across the north bay early into the afternoon, then as we head into the evening, there you see it, around 7:00 and 8:00, we'll

watch that with game two of the bridge series going on. might have a brief delay, but this should be moving on as we go through 11:00, and tomorrow morning, looks like skies are going to try to clear, but roadways tomorrow morning may be a little damp from the light rain that falls later on this evening and overnight. around the bay area, areas still mild today. this will be the last place to see the light rain coming down. mainly mid-60s for temperatures and then as we get over to the coast and the north bay, close to 60 maybe around lunchtime, but then temperatures are going to drop during the afternoon as we start to see that light rain fly. in the meantime, with the showers coming in, cooler air, temperatures dropping a little bit wednesday and thursday, then as we get towards the weekend, you're going to see the temperatures rebound again as you get into saturday and sunday, the numbers coming on up, which for a change, i don't think you're going to need to waterproof the easter eggs. this sunday looks good. 70s out there, gorgeous weather for the weekend. >> we won't put that weather stripping where the two plastic

halves come together. over here at the san mateo bridge, still reports of the tractor-trailer on the high-rise. that is the high-rise. our chopper is heading out to the scene. let's take a live look. they're just over land right now. but we'll give the traffic shot as soon as they have anything to show us. we'll continue to show the area. smooth, easy drive right there, construction, has cleared from 880. we're looking here to 85 just as you're coming north of that 87 turn around there. we do have construction crews remaining, should be clear in the next few minutes and no major issues for these speed sensors. we'll check a couple of spots that do have slowing. right here the dublin interchange is fine, but 16 minutes showing up. more slowing into livermore. but you're still close to the limit. watch that to continue to bleed over there as well as the highway 4 where we continue to have more focus. things are compressing down to antioch. holding steady just about 60 miles per hour through bay point

and the interchange. we'll send it over to you. >> thank you, mike. we have developing news this morning. howard jordan giving a press conference at oikos university about yesterday's deadly mass shooting. >> -- randomly shooting victims -- he shot seven people and killed them, three people were wounded. we do know that he was upset at administrators at the school. we do know that he was upset with several students here because of the way he was treated when he was enrolled here two months ago. we don't have any further details about his exact motivation, but those are -- that's the information we received from witnesses and the suspect himself. we're currently still conducting several interviews, several follow-up interviews, we're going to be putting the pieces together and try to present a case to the district attorney for her to decide what she's going to charge him with within

the next couple of days. he is currently being held at the jail. and the sheriff department does have him in custody pending his initial appearance in court later on this week. the victims as we've found out, there were six women and one mail victim, the victims are from various countries, including korea, nigeria, nepal, and the philippines. we don't have any further information regarding their exact residence. their age range from 21 to 40 years old. there were no kids involved in this incident. all the victims with the exception of the secretary who was the first victim were all students here at this university. and with that, i will take your questions for a few minutes. we're not going to be providing

any more briefings today. we will do one again tomorrow. but as information becomes available. >> did you find the gun? and what kind of gun was it? >> thank you for asking that question. i want to correct the record. yesterday i mentioned in the press conference that we did recover a gun. that is not accurate. we will be searching this morning various locations between here and alameda for a gun. we do know, however, that the -- based on ballistic evidence at the scene that the gun was a handgun. it was a semiautomatic handgun based on the ballistics we've recovered -- ballistic evidence we've recovered here at the scene. >> were they students? or did he kill the person that he stole the car from, as well? >> with the exception of the secretary who was the first person that he commandeered, everyone else suffered gun shot wounds were students at the school. >> did he --

>> is the suspect showing any type of remorse? >> the interviews are being conducted in both korean and english. as you know, one of the -- two of our officers yesterday that responded here including one of our first responders were korean-speaking officers and they were very instrumental and helping us determine what happened. we have been talking to other witnesses here in various languages and not just korean because this is a multi-lingual school that caters to many students from foreign countries. in terms of the suspect's cooperation, i'm told he's been very cooperative with us. he is not been particularly remorseful, but very cooperative with us. >> why did he go to safeway? >> we don't know why he went to safeway. i think he just wanted to get away from the area and eventually we're glad he went there and surrendered because this could have been much more catastrophic than it was today.

even though the incident took place yesterday was very catastrophic. we're glad this incident came to a peaceful ending without him hurting anyone else or hurting one of our officers. >> we don't know exactly why he was expelled. we've been told that some of the possibilities are that he was expelled for his behavioral problems. anger management, but nothing specific, most specific incident about what caused him to be expelled other than what we've been told in regards to his behavioral problems. >> why did he go after this particular administratadministr? was she the one that kicked him out ultimately? >> we don't have information regarding to that. >> why was the majority of the victims women? >> we don't know exactly. the make-up of the victims and whether or not he had a particular aversion or anger towards women. there were a total of 35 people

here yesterday. about 23 of them were accounted for. the others left before we arrived there. so we don't have the actual make-up of whether female versus male. >> why did he stop shooting? he got tired? felt like he had enough? >> we believe he stopped because people were able to use the phone. he could've heard people calling 911. as you know, our police communication center is right down the street here. the first call we got yesterday morning was at 10:33, and within three minutes our first officers started to arrive. it was a matter of time before officers were arriving at the scene. and we don't believe the suspect was intending on having a confrontation with the police. so he left immediately after he was finished shooting.

>> is there any type of alert system in effect? >> no. we have not been able to locate any type of alert system that the school has. >> and the victims, did he randomly target these victims? or they're the ones that allegedly teased? >> we don't believe any of the victims were the ones that teased him. there was some indication that he was looking for particular people, particular administrator. we know the administrator was not here. but i can't confirm whether or not there was any anger toward any of the particular students that were shot. >> did he say anything before he started shooting? i know there was a report he said i'm going to kill you all. >> we don't have that detail, i haven't been briefed about that. we know that he entered the building asking for that particular administrator when he forced the secretary into the classrooms.

>> he asked them to line up, not everyone was cooperative and that's when he began shooting. okay. thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you very much. >> thank you so much. >> all right. that is oakland police chief howard jordan meeting the media early this morning talking about yesterday's deadly shooting at oikos university and giving us some details on it. they believe there was a specific administrator he was looking for out there. no details on why, other than maybe being expelled from the school. >> right. and the chief talked about he was recently expelled, the shooter was for behavioral problems and quite possibly some anger management issues. the shooter being described as going into the building, contacting a secretary who was there, one of which was killed and then eventually forcing that secretary into a classroom where he lined people up and shot at them execution style. we do know that about 35 people were in that building, 23 were accounted for. the chief also said that many

actually managed to get away and the gunman quite possibly stopped shooting when he understood that people were starting to call 911. >> right. so he wanted to then, i guess, get out of there before the police got there and avoid any confrontation on scene. that's when he fled to the safeway where he contacted a security guard we're being told and the police were able to move five miles away and apprehend him. >> allegedly he talked about the security guard -- and the police talking about why it happened and why he did it. and we are finding out this morning, as well, that from a police perspective he's not showing any remorse. they're also talking to the district attorney today to determine what charges will be filed against the gunman. of course, continuing coverage all morning long as new information is being unveiled this morning on the campus shooting rampage that happened in oikos university in oakland yesterday morning. we're also hearing from some of the survivors this morning, stay with nbc bay area news for the very latest. we'll give you twitter updates
