good saturday morning to you. looking live at some of that squishy fog in senol what does it mean for your saturday plans? let's find out. i'm kris sanchez. is it coming? is it going? >> squishy fog, i love that. >> i have scientific. >> very scientific this morning. we are waking up to some fog. you get up against the coast, the fog is widespread like san francisco and santa cruz. temperatures in the 50s. north bay valleys, temperatures are the coolest. 49 in santa rosa. 46 in novato. 55 in san jose. we are expecting fog to stick around at the coast for the first half of the day from san francisco down to santa cruz.

temperatures in the 60s. near 70 in santa cruz. inland valleys, that's where it's the warmest. san jose at 79. santa rosa, 80 degrees. perhaps headed out to the oakland and mariners game this afternoon, temperatures will be comfortable, falling from the lower 70s back to the upper 60s. all of us here are rooting for the oakland a's and the san francisco giants who are in atlanta. it's father's day weekend. we'll have that full forecast coming up in a bit. >> big plans for that. thank you very much. we begin with developing story in the east bay where a suspect is dead and a brave worker is credited with saving the lives of two sheriffs deputies during an armed robbery in castro valley. the sheriff's department says the depositiuties were conductea traffic stop around 10:00 last night. during that stop, a restaurant employee ran out of a restaurant to tell deputies that the burger joint was being robbed.

the deputies rushed into the building and confronted the masked man, they say was armed with a revolver. at that point the suspect fired, but a worker reportedly intervened, grabbing the gunman's arm. one deputy was able to return fire killing that suspect. >> there's no question he helped out the deputies. his intent certainly on the robber's part was to do harm to our deputies and this employee definitely interceded. took some very heroic action. and then the deputies took their own heroic action when they fired and stopped the threat. >> that employee was taken to the hospital with a burn from the revolver, but is doing fine this morning. initial reports said that at least two people were inside the restaurant, and that they were shot but the sheriff's department says that was not the case. the business was closed at the time of the robbery. a south san francisco man is among four people behind bars this morning accused of running

a prostitution and human trafficking ring in northern california. agents arrested three of the suspects in the sacramento area thursday night. then the fourth, 49-year-old zilu was arrested in an apartment complex just across the street from south san francisco's b.a.r.t. station. the doj says many of the women were smuggled in from china and rotated between locations in the bay area and sacramento so they could not connect with each other. neighbors say they are shocked that sex trafficking could be happening in plain sight. one woman says the door of that apartment was always cracked open, but she never thought twice about it. >> i am completely shocked right now. i thought somebody just popped into the apartment because we're next to b.a.r.t. since the window is usually cracked open or the door is open, i thought somebody went in. >> i think people don't pay attention. they kind of have blinders on when it comes to things like

that. when it happens, it's like my gosh. >> the arrest came after a five-month investigation by the state department of justice. doj says more arrests could be on the way. a petaluma man is in jail after he showed up for a sexual encounter with an 11-year-old who was, in fact, an undercover santa clara sheriff's deposition. the 23-year-old was arrested wednesday evening near the san jose state campus where he allegedly arranged to meet that child. the man admitted to planning to sexually assault and physically abuse a minor. they say his violent intent was evident based on the devices he had with him when he was arrested. an undercover agent created an online profile posing as an 11-year-old child and established a relationship with the man, a ruse that led to his arrest. police in richmond are demanning that police remove a shipwrecked boat that allegedly belongs to a sex offender.

that boat's owner is 67-year-old donald olson, he was take noon custody for failing to reveal his whereabouts, which as a sex offender he has to do. police say they have to go through the legal process before they remove the boat which likely won't happen until the end of the month. family and friends of a missing san francisco man are expected to gather once again this morning to continue their search for him. 19-year-old sean seedie was last seen leaving the french american school on may 21st. the western end of golden gate park will be searched, not far from where his cell phone went dead. he suffered a traumatic brain injury after a fall last november, and a private investigator is urging his status be elevated from missing to a person who is physically or mentally disabled. vice president joe biden is waking up in the bay area this

fund-raiser hosted by don ross and doug hickey, the ceo of a major company in the city. the price to get in, $500 to $10,000. >> i don't find it to be annoying. i'm honored they show up. >> the president and vice president have been to the bay area numerous times to collect money for their party. it's no secret that the democrats are desperate to maintain power in the senate, and win seats back in congress. but right now money is important to help in the party's campaigning efforts and even more important for the vice president who is rumored to be running for president in 2016. >> still ahead on "today in the bay," the journey of a lifetime. we'll introduce you to a paraolympian preparing to row from santa cruz to hawaii. and we'll hear from one of

treatment from people for money. you would never see a woman with breast cancer treated this way. you would never say to the woman with breast cancer let your husband take care of your treatment. >> stow is now staying with his parents at their home in santa cruz. his family says his condition is weakening without that therapy. this morning a paraolympian will begin a 2300 mile journey across the pacific starting in santa cruz heading to hawaii. angela madsen who is paralyzed from the waist down will make the journey on the spirit of orlando. she was supposed to hit the open ocean last saturday, but bad weather delayed the trip. the paraolympian has crossed oceans before, this is her first solo attempt. she says she should reach her destination in about three months. >> if i get good conditions, there's the possibility of 70 to 75, but i'm usually a week off. so we'll say 80 to 100. >> she was paralyzed after back surgery in 1993 while she was in

looks better than it has in decades. thousands of volunteer hours are helping to chip away at years of deferred maintenance. miles of once closed trails are open once again. >> if you want to go further -- >> chuck says the model they have come up with is not a perfect fit for every park out there, still, for other groups looking to do something similar, there is, if not a blueprint to copy, a lesson to learn. >> getting together, a community can successfully accomplish an enormous amount. the people here are focused on running a successful park and allowing it to thrive. we can do that if we all pitch in. we all work together. we can make it work. >> that was garvin thomas reporting. still ahead on "today in the bay" -- speaking of the budget, the state managing to do something it hasn't done in nearly 30 years. the story next.
