talking to investigators. she will have a live update. >> the man accused of shooting a san francisco police officer finally arrested after an hours long search and a chaotic chase that spanned four bay area counties. police wrestled the man to the ground at a south bay gas station. the latest details in a live report. >> what we're now learning about a crash that spilled hundreds of gallons of gas on a major south bay freeway. >> hopefully you are dealing with that time change this morning in a good way. we do have showers on the radar this morning. new week, new forecast. i'll tell you how to dress all week long coming up. >> we're looking here, a little blurrier look from the oakland coliseum, traffic flows, the moisture in the air. what i see coming up. >> we're all a little blurry this morning because it feels like 4:00 a.m. but it's 5:00 a.m., monday, march 10th and this is "today in the bay."

isn't that the truth. >> yes. hope you remembered to spring ahead over the weekend. good morning. it's 5:00. thanks for joining us. i'm scott mcgrew. >> i'm laura garcia-cannon. we have breaking news this morning, investigators in fremont looking to three fires at three separate locations, two of them at different elementary schools, flames broke out hours ago at james leech elementary. warm springs elementary and warm springs park. christie smith is live at the park where a restroom was damaged. christie, police looking for an arsonist? >> reporter: they are. these three fires, they believe were deliberately set and set from the outside of the building. we did just go and check out the bathroom. didn't see as much damage there but we moved down the street to warm springs elementary. the reason we did that this is where fire investigators are focusing their attention. this is the snack shack by the

baseball field at warm springs elementary. what they are doing is looking to see if there was accelerant left that the location or the other two locations, all essentially on the same street, may be a half mile apart including james leech elementary school. firefighters just told me that there was a ymca portable that was on fire overnight, a person called 911. there was also an alarm sounding from the school. another call came in at warm springs elementary, a snack shack was burning, the one we just showed you live and also a tree caught fire. then another call came in, and this came at the same time when police were driving around, they were helping to respond to this. i spoke with one sergeant who said that he thought the bathroom birning at warm springs park. all three believed the work of an arsonist. they believe that the warm springs elementary school location, that may have started first and then this person

whoever set these may have headed north. now, if you look at the addresses they do have different street addresses but essentially one side of them all open up to the same street. back at this location where the snack shack is. what police are telling me this same snack shack burned several months ago. they didn't have an exact date but saying that one was deliberately set. but it wasn't part of a series like this one. so again, at this point what they are doing is when people wake up, trying to see if they find witnesses, any one who heard or saw anything unusual. they don't have suspect information, no one reported seeing any one running from the scene. only reports of smoke. you can see quite a bit of damage and investigators working hard to look for any sort of accelerant, that sort of thing. the latest from here. live in fremont. >> pretty active morning. thanks so much. >> the man suspected of shooting and injuring a san francisco police officer behind bars.

he was arrested yesterday after leading police on a high-speed chase through four counties. damian trujillo is live at the gas station on mckee road where the man was arrested. we could see surveillance video of the arrest today? >> reporter: yeah. the owner shows up at 6:00 this morning hoping to get some footage from him. it ended behind me at this gas and shop on mckee road in san jose after a wild night, saturday night and early sunday morning in san francisco. police say 50-year-old jeffrey ruano shot at police after a routine traffic stop in the mission district. the officer's partner was able to fire back before the suspect sped away. they couldn't find him for some time but then police said a tip led them to a white mercedes and the chase was on. everything could be heard on scanner traffic from the actual shooting to the chase itself. it ended up here in san jose when officers stopped ruano at

gunpoint, handcuffed along with two others in the car with him. he is charged with assault with a deadly weapon, a felon in possession of ammunition, and evading police. police describe part of the chase. >> attempted to stop that vehicle in the area of eastbound interstate 80, and the richmond area, and that vehicle failed to stop and evaded police. >> reporter: we should point out police did not find a gun on ruano and it's not clear if the shots that injured the officer came from him. police also say they believe they have the right suspect in custody, and are not looking for anyone else. this morning in connection with that shooting. so priority today as the officer is expected to be okay, priority should be for police in finding that gun. live in san jose, damian trujillo, "today in the bay." >> thank you. >> a person shot overnight in the south bay is recovering this

morning. deputies say just before 10:00 last night a person was shot near south white road and east hills drive. the victim was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. the shooting is under investigation. >> chp looking for a driver 18 deadly hit-and-run in the east bay. officers say two cars crashed into each other around 3:00 yesterday afternoon on 880 north of hegenberger road in oakland. that impact killed a man and injured his passenger. investigators say the driver of the other car took off running. investigators trying to figure out what led up to this crash. >> now to new developments in the search for the missing jext there are more questions than answers as two days of searching have turned up nothing. bob joins us live with an object crews did spot in the water. good morning, bob. >> good morning. of course still no sign of this missing aircraft but searchers did spot a yellow object

floating off the vietnam coast in the south china sea thinking it might be a life raft. it was just a moss-covered cable reel unrelated to flight 370. that was from another object no. confirmation that is part of the 777. and the oil slick off malaysia, according to one report test results indicate that slick is not related to flight 370. >> we have not found anything that appears to be objects from the aircraft, let alone the aircraft. we will be intensifying our efforts to locate the missing aircraft. >> countries in the region deployed 34 aircraft and 40 ships to look for the missing flight. the head of malaysia's civilian aviation authority calling this an unprecedented aviation

mystery give at any fact that three days later searchers have not been able to find this aircraft. one school of thought it disintegrated and officials are looking into possible cause, catastrophic engine failure or suicide, explosion, though the pentagon says that satellites do not detect any bright flashes of light. authorities have not ruled out hijacking, two passenger desire board with stolen passports. no report of chatter between terrorist groups or claims of responsibility. this has been grueling for the relatives of the 239 people on board. they are growing angry accusing malaysian airlines not doing enough to help them. >> thank you, bob. a rough night for people in northern california. they have been dealing with aftershocks, one after another. it's been all night long. the aftershocks follow a 6.9 earthquake that hit off the coast of eureka around 10:30, since then there have been 19

aftershocks, the biggest 4.6. we spoke with a sergeant from the eureka police department. she said the ground was rolling for about a minute. the police department did not get reports of serious damage, no reports of injury. >> the east bay municipal utility district warning about a possible imposter. officials say someone stole a company truck last week along with an employee badge, gear and tools. they believe the criminal may be pretending to be one of their employees. police are looking for a white ford s 350 with this california plate. 1285077. it was spotted in castro valley last night. you can ask to see their work i.d., make sure the person looks like the person on that i.d. >> a driver left a company holding the bag after a crash. the tanker truck overturned on

101 last month spilling hundreds of gallons of gasoline on the road into a drainage ditch. it closed southbound 101 for hours. the morgan hill times reporting that william tank lines paid $27,000 for cleanup costs and expects to pay more. last month investigators say a speeding car lost control, slammed into the center divide and into the tanker causing it to flip. initial report shows the driver was at fault but she uninsured. >> time to check in with meteorologist christina loren. a look at the forecast. >> have the showers and you know what, it's nothing heavy out there but it's enough rainfall to get your highways slick that could lead to a slower than normal drive. take it easy out. there mike is all over. it's back to work, back to business monday. temperatures are pretty comfortable. we're close to 60 degrees, you have the rain cooled air coming in especially in sonoma county,

marin county, the south bay we're getting light scattered activity. it's more organized. to the north of the golden gate bridge, that will be the case most of the morning. this is what we are expecting. a little patchy fog in san francisco for today and 60. the sunshine and 70s kind of a jackpot day down in the south bay. temperatures are going to climb substantially this week. you'll notice that on the seven-day forecast there at the bottom of your screen. today, though, above average to the tune of 5 to 10 degrees. 65 in san francisco, east bay 70, 68 in the stout bay, i think south san jose, gilroy though, you're going to get closer to 71, 72 degrees this afternoon with more sunshine coming your way. i'll show you what we're expecting coming up this week. some pretty good changes to note especially if you work outside or spends time outdoors like mike inouye. our outdoorsman. >> yes, they call me woodsy. that's how my lumber jack outfit. 101, palo alto, we'll get you

without the vuxt a smooth drive past that giant lit up billboard at the university ravens shopping center. dry roads on the peninsula. we'll look at the maps and on the left side, the palo alto area, san mateo down to the south bay no problems there. it's on the east bay christie talks about the three fires and the warm springs district of fremont. that's the area. it's south of mission boulevard. not affecting the flow onto or off or the freeway, we'll watch for more activity and christie continues with the updates. we have a smooth flow through the tri-valley. dublin a smooth drive. more traffic. down to 60 miles per hour and no big concern here. the bay bridge toll plaza we have that forming on the lens as the mist comes in. it's disorganized, a little drizzle i stuff. back to you. >> it is 5:12. a bold promise from kick starter ceo, why you'll never be able to own a piece of that company. >> a close call for a bay area surfer. cameras are rolling as the

rescue helicopter plucks him from the water.

kick starter says it's never going to become part after bigger company. the ceo and co-founder told yahoo! tech he will never sell the company to a larger company. he says kick starter decided from the beginning it didn't want to sell to a bigger business or take the company public and despite huge returns and paydays for whatsapp he seems to be sticking to his promise. the cell phone wars continue. more price cuts. seema mody with those details. good morning. >> good morning, scott. at&t cuts wireless data charges for customers without annual contracts and the price to compete with t mobile, $25 a month down from $80 for two

gigabytes, unlimited talk and text and 50 gigabytes of cloud storage. t-mobile is raising rates by $10 to offset of upgrading its network and increasing use. the move is unusual, the fourth largest provider which has attracted customers by doing away with contracts. and a check of the markets, futures lower. today marks the fifth anniversary of the bull market after the dow and nasdaq and s&p 500 hit multiyear lows march 9, 2009. get this. analysts say fewer than a third of bull markets made it through a sixth year. there is no data out today but look for reports on retail sales and consumer sentiment. >> thank you much. joining us after taking a look at the radar, busy woman is

christina loren. >> usually i don't sit down that gracefully. like kerplop. i'm watching the radar. you got to keep it real on "today in the bay." and you know what, as you're getting your day started you want to pull out the umbrella. you got to think ahead, prepare for it. we're going to end up in the 70s. so temperatures are going to end up pretty mild. 5 to 10 degrees above average with rain on the radar. so kind of that whacky pattern we've been in. but this morning rainfall in the north bay, we're still adding to the totals so that's good news this morning. it's good for our air quality. you'll see here from the futurecast everything clears out of here by about 1:00 p.m. today so. things are going to clear out quickly. want to make sure you're ready for the sunshine and temperatures ending up at about 70 degree downs in south san jose. 68 from the south bay. 69 along the peninsula and 70 in the east bay for today.

let's check that drive. >> let's get you a look at the bay. look at that, you can see green on the maps but not on the overlays. this is the area, i'm talking about this stuff here. that's just over in the livermore valley. the traffic flow shows up nicely around bay. that's a good overview. we have your typical slowing out of the altamont pass and westbound 580 is typical, slowing down into the upper 50s, not a big deal. the green means you might have the damp roads. the blue means possible puddling on the surface streets but again, not a major commute issue around tesla, livermore. looking to the east shore the speeds are moving. you're in the green zone, that's good stuff down the east shore freeway and the maze approach for 24 and 580 a. live look outside and show you what it's like for 880 northbound. a little bit after glow to the lights but not as much as there was 10 minutes ago northbound coming up to the coliseum here and smooth flow there. here is the bay bridge toll

plaza. those have calmed down as the low cloud cover drifting through the area as well. we'll talk about the maps again. back to the area. now the green shows up for the areas north of santa rosa. christina has been talking about this. petaluma, we have showers reported on the roadway. sensors traffic and weather tied together. you might have slicker conditions. but then getting across the golden gate bridge and down the peninsula no problems including over this bridge at san mateo. back to you. >> thanks so much, mike. it's 5:19. russian troops continue to stream into ukraine as the country's new prime minister heads to washington to meet with president obama. president obama called the leaders of latvia and lithuania to talk about imposing economic pressure on russia. politicians from both sides of the aisle appeared on talk shows to debate president obama's response to russia's movement. >> he has created an image around the world, not just with the russians, of weakness. >> if the only way you have to

exert your influence is through coercion and bribery and forcing people that is not going to be a way to extend your power. >> sanctions like travel bans and asset freezes for some russian officials have taken effect and more could be coming. ukraine's prime minister is scheduled to arrive at the white house on wednesday. >> a bay area surfer smashed into rocks lucky to be alive. look at this video. rescuers had to use a chp helicopter to save the 40-year-old man yesterday afternoon in golden gate national recreation area. neither a boat nor rescue swimmers could reach the surfer because of the breaking waves against the rocks. the man suffered minor to moderate injuries. >> 5:20. the tv show that crashed hbo's servers coming up next.

good morning to you, dublin. reminder this morning it is 5:22. you should have sprung ahead over the weekend. hopefully you did. hbo apologizing after a popular tv show got so popular it crashed the hbo go streaming service. turns out so many logged on to see the finale of the show "true detective" the server watt overloaded. the outage caused one fan to tweet, i will not eat, i will not sleep, i will not budge from this spot until i have seen the true detective finale. it's your move at hbo go. true detective stars matthew mccann a hay and investigators hunting a serial killer and hbo go lets you watch on cell phones and ipads. >> 5:23. a local designer made renderings

of what the biggest tech companies would look like if they had to house their employees. check this out. alfred created this of the apple campus with housing for all 13,000 employees. the only really rule that he followed that the housing must fit on the current campus but as high as it needs. facebook, the campus would have to00,0009400 employees. it would look like this. if google had to house all 10,000, it would look like this with high rise buildings as high as 50 stories tall. he says the booming tech industry is driving the cost of housing up and leading to long commutes. >> what would we call them? >> googleville. >> i like that. >> want to check the forecast with meteorologist christina loren. what's the forecast in

googleville? >> i think they call it googleland. it's going to be nice across the peninsula, temperatures are going to end up in the upper 60s to low 70s. these are your current readings, 58 in the east bay, 60 along the peninsula and 61 in the south bay headed toward the upper 60s to low 70s out there. and today you need your umbrella for the first part of the day. you can ditch it by about 1:00 p.m. in san francisco, 3:00 p.m. in the south bay and then a warm-up headed our way. i'll tell what you that means coming up. right now here is mike inouye. >> looking here from the emeryville camera, our view of the bay bridge cleared up. we were losing sight of the bridge but it has cleared so things continue to change every few minutes as clouds drift through. christina talked about the bay bridge toll plaza, possible rain, not possible rains coming in possibly in the north bay wet roads, we had droplets on the lens but they dried up. we might have damp roads, watch those on and off ramps. the bay, not any surprise.

the tri-valley out of the altamont pass t green over on the right side, that means wet road possible on westbound 580 but over to livermore and dublin things should dry out. nothing unusual. back to you. >> 5:26. we follow breaking news. police now investigating after three small fires in fremont, two of them at an elementary school. christie smith is talking to investigators. she will have a live update. >> and the a's owner lew wolff may have found a work around in efforts to bring the a's to the south bay. we'll look at the option he is exploring. >> speaking of the south bay, a live look outside. down town san jose this morning, nice clear skies. showers going to greet us. when, where how long? we'll check in with christina.

elementary, warm springs elementary and warm springs park all within a few hundred feet of each other. christie smith is live in fremont this morning. christie, you have new information how this could impact students. >> reporter: yes. we're hearing at least one of the portables at james leech elementary will be impacted and that's because there was a fire on the outside, a firefighter told me he thought it was used by the ymca as a daycare or after school. but he wouldn't be usable today. as you said these are three fires about a half mile apart, all on the same street, i wanted to show you some of the worst damage. this is at warm springs elementary school. it is the snack shack near the baseball field on fernol. investigators believe the ones i spoke w saying that this series of fires started after 2:00 this morning. another one may be 100 yards away from where we are, the warm springs park bathroom, that one was also heavily damaged

overnight as well. and then another one as we were talking about earlier, that was at james leech elementary school. there was fire alarm that went off, and also some neighbors called in a report that they smelled smoke over there. that was in a portable unit there and what investigators tell me they had to cut a support beam in that portable so it won't be usable today. the exact order of these fires is unclear because they happened so fast. in fact, a sergeant with fremont police department responding to one fire said he noticed another one burning. >> both of the calls for the two separate fires were one minute apafrmt we started suspecting possible arson because of the close proximity. once i arrived i started looking around to worse case scenario there would be an additional one, that's when i happened to notice there was actually a third fire going on at the same time. >> reporter: at daylight they are going to be canvassing this

area looking for witnesses, any one who saw or heard anything unusual overnight. right now they don't even have a suspect description to share. i wanted to show you back live, this is the snack shack at warm springs elementary school which looks to be a total loss. what they tell sus that this one was actually set on fire a couple months ago. they don't know if it's related but certainly they are going to look into it. reporting live in fremont, christie smith, "today in the bay." >> busy morning out there. thanks so much. >> this morning a wounded san francisco police officer making a quick recovery. detectives say he was shot by the same man who led police on a high-speed chase through four bay area counties. the chase ended at a gas station in san jose where we find damian trujillo. surveillance video of the arrest, right? >> reporter: yes. we're trying to get our hands on that. i saw video footage from the cell phone after cashier, pretty actually dramatic video but he would not share until his boss

shows up he says after 6:00 but it ended up here at the gas station behind me. the gas and shop on mckee road. it ended up with not one more shot being fired. police arrested 50-year-old jeffrey ruano saying he is the man that fired at police during a routine traffic stop. the officer was able to radio for help and another officer fired at the suspect but he got away. police could not find the shooter for some time bought tip led them to a white mercedes and the chase was on. the driver led officers through four counties, the incident from the shooting to the chase itself could be heard on scanner traffic. police laid a spike trip for the car and officers arrested ruano without another shot fired. the two other people in the car with him were also detained but released. police describe for us portions of that chase.

>> the chp attempted to stop that vehicle in the area of eastbound interstate 80 and the richmond area, and that vehicle failed to stop and evaded police. >> reporter: ruano is charged with assault with a deadly weapon, a felon in possession of ammunition, and evading police. we should point out police did not find a gun on ruano. it's not clear if the shot that injured the officer came from ruano. they are doing tests to make sure they put their ducks in order and find out if in fact ruano was the shooter in this case. that's the latest from san jose. >> thank you. >> 5:34. the man who pleaded no contest to trying to molest several children on the peninsula going back to durt change his plea. bradley rosek pleaded no

contest. in exchange for a little more than 27 years in prison. no contest pleas do not admit guilt but acknowledge the prosecutors have enough evidence to win in court. he is accused of dragging a girl out after san mateo elementary school and trying to take pictures of several girls in a bathroom in 2012. now he says his lawyer did a poor job of advising him. he tried to withdraw his plea but the judge needed more time to consider. we'll hear from the judge this morning. >> a local lawmaker will announce legislation requiring electric companies to come up with ways to protect the grid from attacks like last year's attack. senator hill wants utility companies to develop security plans to help prevent attacks, he wants them to be able to isolate attacks so other parts of the community are not affected while trying to restore power faster.

17 transformers knocked out during last year's attack on the metcalf substation. and officials have not determined if it was a terrorist attack or vandalism. senator hill calls the attack a wake-up call. >> new developments in the search for the missing malaysia airlines jet. crews are expanding the search area, there are reports of new debris in the ocean. bob redell joins us with the latest. >> the head of malaysia's civilian aviation authority calling this an unprecedented aviation mystery, it's three days since flight 370 vanished and there are no signs of the aircraft. this morning as you mentioned they are expanding the search area to include land areas, land now, while they will continue in the south china sea. there are new reports of debris out of saigon, nothing confirmed whether it's related to the flight but ships are on the way. in the past several hours they

did spot a yellow object floating off vietnam but turned out to be nothing. the oil slick off the coast of malaysia, test results indicate it's not related. experts believe it's possible that the plane disintegrated. they haven't ruled out causes, talking about catastrophic engine failure, extreme turbulence, suicide, even hijacking. two passengers did board with stolen passports. one was taken from a man in italy surprised to hear that any one was able to use his passport. >> i see my passport, maybe can use again because when come back to italy i talk with police, italian police for lock on my lost passport then nobody can use. >> should be noted there has been no reported chatter between terrorist groups nor claim of

responsibility. authorities have not ruled out explosion though the pentagon over the weekend says that satellites did not detect bright flashes of light when that flight disappeared. >> bob, thank you. >> the threat of a tsunami off the coast of northern california has passed following a magnitude 6.9 quake overnight. since the quake hit off the coast of eureka, 10:30, about 20 aftershocks have shaken the area. last night we spoke with sergeant kay houden from the police department. she felt ground roll for about a minute. >> we didn't get records of damage, no reports of injury yet. i think a few people called had furniture fell over, so far that's it. >> some stores reported items falling off shelves. >> 5:38. i don't think it's a very strong system headed our way but we're

going to have to shower. >> you know, they are intensifying a little right now. the bulk of the moisture is going to come through in the heart of the morning drive. we need this rain. and always really tracking your temperatures this time of the morning. it feels balmy out there. look at these numbers. 61 degrees in san jose. 60 degrees to kick off the new week monday starting out the day. 59 in livermore. 52 so it new cold in san martin where we get chilly. you'll notice what's happening, the front is organizing, the showers intensifying and right now in san francisco this is going to create puddles, ponding expected as you can see the showers are starting to come in more steadily. in the south bay scattered. the front is going to make it south throughout day. by about 8:00 a.m. it's mostly between san jose to gilroy, it's going to continue to press into southern california throughout the day, may be producing half

inch of rainfall down in los angeles where they really need that rain. we have temperatures on the way to about 90 degrees later on this week. i'll tell you where we're going to see impressive highs coming up in my next report. let's check your drive. good morning to mike inouye. >> good morning. we're looking here, this our palo alto camera. on the peninsula things are drier than some spots where the sprinkles are. 101 southbound with the headlights, that sunrise affects folks about 7:00, 7:30. about an hour later this morning so you'll be okay, then it's going to hit some folks who don't get that, coming down in toward the south bay. we'll look at the map. so far nothing unexpected. we'll zoom in here, the warm springs area where christie continues to follow the three fires that happened overnight. these are not affecting your on or off ramp but we'll track

those. the try valley, 580 out of the alta mont pass. and the bay bridge a look at the toll plaza with cash lanes, back to you. >> 5:41. edward snowden getting ready to speak in a couple hours at one of the most popular festivals in america. >> and rain expected to hit parts. meteorologist christina loren will keep tabs on the latest details.

well, in hours nsa leaker edward snowden street speak. he's going to appear via video to talk about his views on surveillance culture, the nsa and government intrusion. not everyone looking forward to it though. tracie potts is in washington this morning where one

congressman is against it. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. one kansas republican wrote a letter to the organization saying this should not be one of your headline speakers for this festival. he's wanted on felonies here in the united states. but that didn't seem to have much of an impact. he is scheduled to speak just about three hours from now at that conference in austin where some 30,000 people have gathered. a lot of techies there and he along with the aclu are expected to talk about not only the nsa and the surveillance programs but personal privacy in general with all of the information that's out there. so, we're looking to see what snowden might say not only on his own but also when asked questions by the audience. there is supposed to be a q and a session as well. >> tracie potts in washington, thank you. >> 5:44. public safety officials will reveal the new security plans for the boston marathon.

we already know spectators and runners can expect security checkpoints, hundreds of additional officers, and bomb sniffing dogs. >> the judge ordered cameras out of the courtroom today while the expert who performed autopsy on reeva steenkamp testified in oscar pistorius's trial. the judge determined releasing the autopsy findings could, quote, compromise the dignity of the deceased. earlier pistorius's security guard testified saying he called pistorius to check on him after neighbors reported hearing gun shots. his statement could back the prosecutor's case that the killing was premeditated. the defense presented call records showing pistorius called security first, but that guard maintains the records are wrong. >> a tough ending for a british yachtman's attempt to sir k
