recreation center. christie smith just spoke to investigators. she's live at the scene. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. a brief update from the chp. what they tell us two investigation teams are on the way from the chp and alameda county to look into the shooting but say that they are limited, the chp, on what they can say because it happened on oakland city streets where we are where there are more than a dozen police cars and chp cars. here's what they can tell us. they say at about 2:53 this morning the chp tried to stop a car that didn't have plates on high street at 580. the car was actually on city streets. possibly a bmw. the car did not stop and actually led the chp on a pursuit through the city streets to where we are, east 57th and east 15th, right above international boulevard. this is a dead end street. the driver turned on.

there was some sort of altercation between the two chp officers and the driver of that car. shots were fired. it's unclear, they are not revealing exactly how this man is doing, the person in the car, but they tell us that the two officers are fine. they say a little later they will be able to reveal more. we asked if the coroner was called or ambulances, they won't say anything about the status of the driver. again, they tell us that oakland police are actually the lead on this now because it happened on the streets. so we have calls in to oakland police hoping that a spokesperson we're hearing may be on the way, haven't seen them yet but that's the latest from here and they do tell us that the street will look this way with all of the road blocks going on for at least maybe five to six hours because again, they are waiting for the investigative teams to show up and conclude their investigation. that's the latest from here live in oakland, christie smith,

"today in the bay." >> pretty active scene. thank you. >> we have breaking news in the south bay, a fire has gutted an apartment complex in san jose. it's the complex on cadillac drive not far from the intersection of winchester and hamilton. bob redell is live at the scene. bob, we're learning several people probably forced out of their homes. >> reporter: yes. initially we're hearing it could be 24, two dozen along those lines. got done speaking with red cross. they know of seven people who decided to stay in their units here in this building. even though there is no power and gas. it's for the people who live in the two units that burned you see in the corner. we know they got out. it's possible that they made other arrangements and they don't need the red cross. this fire started around quart tear two this morning in the upper unit that you are looking at. the fire department believes it started in the kitchen, it's not suspicious. that's not their gut right now. appears accidental. and in the fire destroyed that

unit and spread next door causing heavy damage there. the other units, we spoke to one resident who said there is no smoke or water damage, he decided to stay in spite of what was a frightening experience last night. >> people asking, everybody fine, yeah, everybody is fine. yeah. >> reporter: we have spoken with red cross on the scene knocking on doors speaking with people so. far everyone they talked to is denying their requests to help. reporting live in san jose, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thank you. >> it's 5:04. done deal. looks like san jose and the santa clara unified school district received the go ahead to buy a shuttered mental institution from the state of california. "mercury news" reports the two will announce today their bid to buy the 81 acre site in north san jose. the site includes the agnews

center. it plans to develop it into a high school, chrks 8 and to deal with future population growth. developers are in the process of building 32,000 homes in the area and work will be complete in five years. >> a gun store owner in los gatos will be before the council to reapply for a permit to sell guns in the city. templar sports opened in late 2012. public outcry caused the council to adopt an ordinance last year requiring all gun stores operating in the city to be reapproved every single year. during tonight's public hearing the council will decide if templar sports will be allowed to get that new license or one more year. it will consider taking the city to court if the permit is denied. >> another city will talk about banning styrofoam. cupertino will introduce an ordinance prohibiting food

vendors using it. it's modeled after the one in san jose. >> let's check in with christina this morning. she says rain is what, sooner than you were expecting before some >> i was about to write a novel, the year without a winter in the bay area. that's not going to be the case. it's coming next week. 40 degrees in the south bay. the good news is we're still starting out with lows right on par with seasonal averages. it's our highs that blow past those averages. by about 10 degrees. that has been the trend for the past week or so. we head throughout today more of the same, sunshine, sun screen, things you normally associate with the summertime. wind about 70 in the south bay. when i come back i'm going to let you know about the chance for rain. i'll show it to you. it's looking more promising so that's great news. mike's back. more good news. >> thank you. we'll take that for the good

news. so a heavier flow of traffic. we should see a good burst. not a problem off of the high rise into foster city. couldn't find with it the camera. we have reports of some roadway hazard. usually that's a stall toward 101 off west 92. no details. i see slowing that shows up in both directions but that's typical as more hit 92 to or through the area with 101. the south bay, northbound routes moving smoothly. the yellow down to 57, 58 miles per hour. right here, transitioning toward 87 under 85, you may have a crash still going on. sounded like a fender-bender. i'll track that on the reports. the tri-valley moves, not much of a build. starting to happen into livermore out of the altamont pass. additional slowing because of an earlier crash 205 where it merges with 580. there is slowing out of the altamont pass. it may make things lighter

through livermore. that's great news. back to you. >> 5:07. the controversial google shuttle buses back in the spotlight, the focus of a vote over whether or not they should be able to share muni bus stops in the city. peggy bunkser joins us with more. >> good morning to you. this is just one of those things that continues to grow, this issue. this is a memo week making waves for google. all over a transportation issue causing headaches for san francisco. the huge shuttle buss that carry san francisco based employees to the google campus on the peninsula using muni stops free of charge to pick up staffers. in a memo released we're going to tell you about that in a second but today the san francisco mta board will vote on the idea of sharing the use of these muni stops and this memo that was leaked to tech crunch shows that the company is prepping their employees for this vote.

saying hay if you want to go, offer suggestions as to-to-why this is what we want you to say. look at some of the bullet points leaked. one, i am so proud to live in san francisco and be part of this community. two, i support local and small businesses in my neighborhood. also my shuttle empowers my colleagues and i to reduce our carbon emissions by removing cars from the road. also if the shuttle program didn't exist i would continue to live in san francisco and drive to work on the peninsula. i'm a shuttle rider, san francisco resident and i volunteer at sort of look what else i do. and also, lastly, because of the above i urge the board to adopt this pilot as a reasonable step in the right direction. these are some of the bullet points t cues they encourage employees to bring up. google has hired a private firm to shuttle flows via a ferry boat. some say those buses clog up the streets, create congestion, they

want to do something about it. if memo mention google employees attend and speak up they are free to identify themselves as google staffers. the meeting and the vote whether to allow these buss to share the muni clock, at the san francisco city hall. sure to be a packed meeting. >> no doubt. the controversy continues. 5:10 now. the nine-month contract talks between part and its union last riders millions. the total bill about $8.4 million. among the costs in the tab, outside consultant fees, charter buses for stranded commuters and public relations help. there was a few thousand dollars in take-out food. the biggest loss about $5 million loss because trains were not running during the strikes. >> thanks to passengers the only freedom train in the u.s. will

run again in 2015. they reached their goal. made enough yesterday for the train to run next year. the train has carried riders from san jose to san francisco to honor the journey of dr. martin luther king jr. >> we'll tell you what has some bay area electric car drivers so angry. and east coast college on lockdown after a student shot on campus. why it's safe to return to class.

new this morning the ukrainian capitol remains tense after another night of clashes. until now the two-month protests have been largely peaceful but recently passed laws have triggered violence in kiev.

this is the scene last night as thousands of protesters confront the police officers near the main government headquarters. protesters are angry their president made moves to be closer to russia rather than the european union. >> philadelphia police say university campus is secure and classes can resume this morning following a late night school shooting. the gunman still on the loose after shooting in a student parking lot. the victim in critical but stable condition. students were asked to remain inside until after 6:00 this morning when police searched the campus. the shooting does not appear to be a random act of violence. >> the growing number of electric cars in the bay area has triggered an unexpected side effect. some companies are dealing with charge rage because they have far more electric cars than chargers leading to employee fights over the availableable chargers. cars are being unplugged while charging and employees are calling one another to ask them

to move the car. the company is drafting guidelines for electric vehicle drivers. >> if your electric car, helps to come to work first. manufacturing machines in the natural gas industry could break ground in a year. the plant could eventually provide around 900 jobs. according to the palo alto weekly, the american gas and technology company wants to build on a 17-acre lot on bay road near university avenue off 84. the bay area company would clean up the site. it's considered toxic right now. and construct a 145,000 square foot facility. it is earning season, today we find out how sunnyvale's advanced micro device is doing, amd will release fourth quarter earnings giving us insight how they did versus intel. we're learning that intel sold its television business. for the look at the markets, how they are doing let's check in with kayla tausche.

good morning. >> scott, good tuesday morning to you. futures are higher as investors return from the holiday weekend. the markets come off a mixed week. the dow and nasdaq higher but the s&p 500 ended in the red. it's relatively light week for economic data but there are plenty of earnings as you mentioned, a quarter of the s&p 500 is set to report we hear from johnson and johnson, verizon and delta airlines. the dow rising 42 to 16,459, the nasdaq lose twog 1 to 4198. wells fargo joins other banks in dropping so called deposit advance loans. these are similar to pay day loans which are short-term but have been criticized by consumer groups for high fees. the loans are automatically repaid out of future direct deposits that come into your checking account. very expensive form of lending and seems it's come to the end of the road. back to you.

>> sounds like a mess. thank you. >> despite heavy snow and freezing temperatures predicted for the area, federal agencies in washington, d.c. remain open. national weather service says the winter storm could bring up to 10 inches of snow with wind chills as low as 10 degrees below zero. they expect temperatures in the 20s and warn some places could see single digits tonight. >> let's check in with our own weather, christina loren. good morning. >> good morning. if you are trying to catch a flight even here in sunny san francisco this could be problematic for you later on today. let's talk about the east coast storm system and when it will have the most damaging impact. we stop the clock, this afternoon at 4:00 you can see all that snowfall coming through the northeast or new england state getting pounded. but the real story again is the cold air that trails behind. they call it another polar

vortex. this frigid air moves in. so today travel delays prompted by snow, tomorrow travel delays prompted by de-icing. you want to watch for delays. washington, d.c., new york city and boston, check ahead starting today and throughout tomorrow morning. as we head throughout the day we're talking about another gorgeous san francisco afternoon. headed toward the 70s. lots of sunshine, no low clouds except for at the coast. because of that return of a slight on shore flow the upper 60s, temperatures cooler but not too bad. we're going to hold on to the warmth and then we get into the changes. so today, seize the day if you can get out there. 70 in the south bay, the peninsula a little cooler, as we head throughout afternoon. in san francisco, a little bit of patchy fog at the coast burning off by 9:00 a.m. in the north bay, hazy sunshine, 72 in santa rosa. east bay and the tri-valley same

deal. you're breaking up the sun screen and the shade. next week at this time hopefully everything pans out perfectly you'll be breaking out the umbrella as the storm window opens back up. i'll stop the clock into tuesday when the active pattern returns to the bay area. we'll talk about that coming up. it's a traffic tuesday. over to mike and your drive. >> good news, things are moving smoothly, we should see that burst of traffic kicking in in parts of the bay like the south bay. should be about a half hour from now so we'll watch, this stretch of northbound 101. so far we see blips of yellow but it doesn't last long. we'll track that. alum rock, not a big deal as far as the bulk of your commute. if you are local to that you'll want to know. no major injuries. we have slowing southbound approaching the off ramp toward santa teresa there was a crash. sounds like it cleared from the

only lane it was blocking. a look out here toward the east bay, a little bit of slowing from time to time. so more cars hitting the roadway. the dumbarton bridges, fremont, gradual build through the area and for the tri-valley a similar pattern, 84 heading flew the city streets pleasanton and livermore down to 680 a. look across the bay, san mateo bridge moving smoothly, no problems across the high rise. we talked about some hazard of some sort at 101, not a problem so we'll move on toward oakland through downtown to the bay bridge masa. >> 49er season is done but a fundraising contest between the niners and the seahawks far from over. >> we can win this. efforts to raise money for two children's hospitals will go on for a few weeks.

the man behind the campaign says he is going to keep it going through the super bowl. seahawks fanned raised more than $70,000 for the children's hospital. >> on the niners side fans raised more than $34,000 for the seattle children's hospital. so we're behind. get it in gear. he will keep it going for three more weeks. >> get ready for jamaica. the island nation sending its first team in more than a decade. why the trip almost didn't happen.

good morning to you. 5:23 and can you imagine if this were your commute. this is indianapolis, indiana where things actually flowing fairly well. there is a huge storm that's going to hit the eek and the

midwest. very cold. we'll check in with christina. >> jamaicans pretty sunny there, they are headed to sochi. the island nation has accepted an invitation to compete in next month's olympics in the two-men bob sled. this will be the first time they had a team in the winter games since 2002. the team learned over the weekend it qualified but didn't have the funding, that's when the jamaican association and sochi organizing committee stepped in, promising to pay for the travel costs. two-man team has a veteran on board. winston watts competed 12 years ago finishing 28th in the salt lake city games. >> to the gridiron, commissioner roger goodell announced the league is considering eliminating extra points. he says it would make things more interesting. under a proposed plan, a touchdown would receive seven points, and then instead of kicking after the touchdown,

there would be an option to play for an 8th point. if you don't convert, you would lose a point so you get just six points for a touchdown. an east coast sporting goods company committed a half million mistake. >> check throughout photo tweeted out by rick. it shows patriots afc champion gear on sale. trouble is the patriots didn't win the afc game against the broncos. >> other than that it's really accurate. they spent $500,000 to have the t-shirts and hats and in the store before the game ended. well t patriots lost. they can't sell the merchandise even though it would be fun to have, even if you put it on sale they are not allowed to sell so it they say it will be donated to someone in the third world. so somewhere some place they are going to think that the patriots won. they won in 2014.

>> i want to check the forecast. that's jumping the gun. >> a little history from scott mcgrew. good morning. here's the deal. we have this dry pattern. everybody wants to know when is it going to rain? not today. san francisco 46 degrees, we're not looking at significant changes for rain until we get into next week. but here's what we're watching. i'm able to look at some of these models that go way out there. i can tell you we're going to get a chance for rain tuesday. but as we get to the week of the fifth of february, skiers, snowboarders, antennas up. we look like we're going to get into a very wet pattern and it's looking really good. so keep that in mind. 66 in san francisco, 70 in the north bay and 70 degrees in the south bay. sunshine and that sun rise slowdown. that's what we're working with. >> and wear the shades because the sun gets in folks' eyes. we're looking here toward 880, the taillights away from us,

southbound at mission boulevard. a smooth drive here but slowing from time to time. look at the maps, we see a good segment showing the slowdown, more folks hit the road. i'm watching south 680 at mission boulevard. i explained there are some folks that report a small brush fire. we're tracking that as well. >> thanks. 5:27. cal train investigating after two people are struck by fast-moving train at the south bay station. we'll have the latest details. >> plus, with just over two weeks until the olympic games the worries grow. search now nor four women who appear to be targeting the event leading up to the games.

we are following a pair of breaking news stories. more than a dozen people looking for a new place to stay after an early morning fire at a south bay apartment complex. good morning to you.

thanks for joining us. i'm laura garcia-cannon. >> and i'm scott mcgrew. we're going to get to that fire but we want to start with our other top story, a shooting involving police in the east bay. it happened just a few hours ago near the intersection of east 15th street and 57th avenue in oakland. christie smith is on the scene. what are police telling you? >> reporter: good morning. all of this police activity you see behind me is blocking a dead end street down the block on the left-hand side. this is where a police pursuit ended and officer opened fire with the chp telling us is that they can't release many details because it actually happened on oakland city streets so it's under police jurisdiction. it happened just before 3:00 this morning. that's when the chp says they tried to stop a car, possibly a bmw, on high street at 580. the car was on city streets. and we're told that this car had no plates on it. the driver failed to yield and there was a short pursuit. about three to five minutes that

driver, a solo occupant making many turns i'm told to get away from officers, ended up here at east 57th at east 15th and bailed out on foot. there was some altercation and gun fire. the officers we're told are fine. we asked the condition of the suspect. they couldn't release that information but we have not seen any ambulances at all. we're told that there are actually two investigations under way, waiting for a shooting team from alameda county and the chp so they will be here for quite some time possibly up to five to six hours. we're told that a spokesperson from the oakland police department who has jurisdiction is on the way. as soon as we hear we'll let you know what they had to say. >> thank you much. >> more breaking news this time in san jose at an apartment complex. gutted by an early morning fire. one apartment destroyed, another

unit damaged. several others are without power and gas. that fire broke out at a complex on cadillac drive not far from winchester and hamilton avenue. the fire started in the kitchen in one of the apartments but they are trying to figure out the exact cause. >> authorities will look at video recorded by a train which hit two people in santa clara, killing one man. the cal train was traveling around 70 miles an hour when he at this time the man as it passed through the station in santa clara. it was not scheduled to stop. one man died, the other taken to the hospital. several witnesses told us they thought one of the victims may have been on a bike around the time of the accident but officials don't know why the pen were on the tracks. >> the circumstances are unusual. we need to understand what went on between the two victims and whether there was something more that needs to be investigated

and that's one of the things that we'll be able to talk with the second victim about when he comes out of surgery. >> officials will also examine the train's black box. there were 70 passengers aboard at the time of the accident. >> grief counselors will be on hand when classes remosume at delmar high. danica was hit and killed by a light rail train last friday. her friends created a site to help pay for her funeral. a memorial has grown near the spot where she was riding her bike. >> an east bay mother is mourning the death of her two sons both murdered within a few weeks of each other. 13-year-old lee was shot and killed in oakland on his way home from the boys and girls club. on sunday not far away from where lee was shot his older brother and a trend were shot

and killed. near 100th and longfellow. 19-year-old broussard was with his friend. his mother says there nor words to describe her grief. she is begging for someone to come forward with information about the killings. she had one other plea for the public. >> what i do ask is for no retaliation at all. i want to see this in the courts, i want retaliation through the court system so police no retaliation. >> police say they have no suspects. >> we are 16 days from the start of the winter olympic games in sochi and threats against the event are intensifying. nbc news has confirmed four female terrorist who is call themselves black widows, are targeting the olympic torch relay before it even reaches sochi. one of the women is from dagisstan where many have

intense dislike for vladamir putin. they have hung wanted posters at bus transport hubs identifying the women two additional male suspects, believed to be planning an attack in central russia. the tension is of little concern to 15-year-old figure skating sensation polina edmunds as she prepares to go to the games. her family is from russia. >> just focus on the training. i don't think -- i think we're excited to go and persons the games. >> more than 30,000 russian groups have been finalized. >> hundreds of thousands of tickets are still unsold. sochi offered 1.1 million and about 300,000 are up for grabs. there are signs that foreign fans are turned off because of

all of the terror expense and a shortage of tourist attractions close to the venue. let's check in with christina for a microclimate forecast. >> so many of them. good morning to you scott and laura. take a look at how hard my job can be sometimes. the north bay at 32, we're 10 degrees warmer just down the road along the peninsula. we're seeing temperatures bat average as we start the day. then we blow past that 5 to 10 degrees into each afternoon. our days are longer. we have buy pass statistically. we've got changes. your seven-day should get subtle changes. into next week i'm going to show you when the storm track returns. rain and snow in tahoe, boy, do we needed. for today t factual notice a difference out there. it's going to be cooler. out of the 70s in san francisco. you can see from this shot still

lots of sunshine expected. by tomorrow down to 68. friday still above average. we'll hit 65. then next week everything changes. break out the jackets and the boots. keep them in the corner for now. i'll show you when in our next report. let's see thou drive is shaping up. >> i get to use the jacket i got for christmas. ied that camera turned looking at a disabled big rig. that just cleared the area so they left the screen, that was partly the reason for naps as we show you no more, we were watching southbound 680 from auto mall parkway to mission boulevard. reports say crews arrive, a couple of small brush fires on the shoulder. the slow dane out of the sunol

area. we'll track that in the newsroom. we're looking at the alta mont pass so the typical build. looking at palo alto as well. a decent amount of traffic. past the shopping center. i do see slowing for south bay 101 in san jose and the toll plaza we'll give you both of those, coming up. >> breaking news in san jose, police have surrounded a strip mall searching for a burglary suspect. it's happening right now at the intersection of hillsdale and camd camden. bob joins us from the seen. what can you tell us? >> quite a police presence that the strip maul, about 30 and looking for two, one is definitely a man. these two people around 2 toan 20 were breaking into the business. you see in the corner.

that's a medical marijuana dispensary. the alarm company called to say our remote microphone is picking up a disturbance. the alarms with going off. the police arrived. the people had left that business action in other businesses. perhaps trying to escape. not sure if they were trying to escape but the broken glass. they believe they might be on the roof of the strip maul. they had a ladder extended so the police can do a search. i'm looking at this now. they have retracted that. i don't know if that means they slopped searching. the police told us they have this entire strip maul surrounded. the thought is when they arrives, they think they responded quick enough so doing what a called a slow search

going business to business and hopefully be able to corner these suspects at some point and make an arrest. there is still traffic in from uf here on hillsdale. one reason they haven't shut down the road is they don't have inform officers. i got roughly units but they want to put those resources dedicating to find the two who broke into that dispensary. it's been going on for a few hours now. reporting live, "today in the bay." >> it's 5:40. the new jersey governor gets ready for his second term. >> reporter: heavy snow hitting parts of the midwest and the northwest this morning. we'll take you live to washington, d.c. next.

good morning to you. it's 5:42. so this is what a traffic camera looks like. you wake up and watching the indianapolis news looks like traffic is flowing fairly well despite snow and lots of snow, a lot of bitter cold as well. sweeping through the northeast and the midwest. it continues to fall. we got another one of those polar vortexes. tracie potts live in washington, the federal government even closed because of the storm, tracie? >> reporter: it's coming our way too. chicago's starting to see that heavy snowfall. coming through the midwest. to the northeast. we're told in washington we'll probably start to see rough weather, snowfall around mid morning into the evening. and later this evening two, four, maybe six inches in some areas, up in philadelphia they are looking up to 12 inches, up to 10 in other parts of the region. and it's going to be cold as well at or below zero wind chills in many of these areas.

so round two, here we come. there are some challenges. first of all, because it came so early a lot of areas are starting to run out of their budgets for salt and sand to salt the streets. i have seen that up in new jersey. and also propane tanks, a lot of people heated by propane. that's running short. the federal government declared a home heating fuel emergency. back to you. >> tracie potts and christina continues our coverage. travel delays i'm sure. >> yeah. and you know what, this thing is just getting going. let me take it to the futurecast. 5:30 a.m., you can see not a lot happening. we continue that. we stop the clock at 4:30. look at all of the snowfall not only impacting the new england states, the northeast all the way down to raleigh. as we head throughout the day here in the bay area even though it's going to be sunny and fabulous, you want to check ahead because this is going to cause some larger delays. here's the deal. you see the snowfall impressive

to look at. but it's the cold air that trails behind this front that's really going to do the damage. so we're talking about major de-icing delays as we head through wednesday morning, potentially thursday as well. we're expecting 6 to 8 feet of snow. it's going to be really hefty up there. especially in the places like maine so. if you live in the northern new england area and you're trying to get home you want to check ahead for the next three days. 46 degrees in san francisco, 38 degrees to start the day in the east bay. and we're at 40 degrees here in the beautiful south bay. so here's where we're headed throughout the afternoon. temperatures microclimate forecast slows you a little bit of a difference from yesterday. if you want to know where we're headed later on in the week you don't have to wait for the seven-day forecast. it's at the bottom of the screen. saratoga 72 for you, along the peninsula a few more clouds today, high clouds moving in as we head throughout the afternoon. you'll notice that it will paint a pretty sunset. 71 along the peninsula in belmont.

pacific heights. cooler out of the 70s today. and in the north bay looking real nice for a nice stroll through wine country. 72 degrees. in santa rosa, in the east bay good, oakland 65, and the tri-valley we'll see the 70s today. 73 degrees out in pleasanton. so as we head throughout next week, that's when the storm window opens up. as we see the big ridge of high pressure finally weaken, allowing the storm track to come into the bay area. that's going to make for major changes. we stop the clock into tuesday, you can see it's starting to get a little soupy into wednesday. the storm track to our north. so still days out but we're counting on some rain. let's talk to mike about the drive. >> we need that rain as we all know. looking here north 101, this is -- come back for the commute. we haven't seen this since before the holiday. this is what a tuesday typically looks like. northbound 101 past 680. look at the map, showing you the orange and yellow coming through the area. things move better over the next
