influence of alcohol, according to police. what they are telling us that it was a quick thinking taco bell employee that let them know that a person in the drive through was acting belligerent after 1:00 this morning. police showed up, say they tried to stop that driver who was in a mini cooper overnight, they eventually saw that driver and they say that he slammed into a pole on fremont boulevard, that driver got out and ran, the car actually caught on fire. that driver was arrested. then what they tell us is that a passerby waved officers down and told them there was a victim laying in the road, here's what police told us. >> the initial officer who arrived had not seen that, and so they turned around and begin to investigate this body and in fact they did realize that we had a person on the side of the road. >> reporter: the man arrested according to fremont police is 23-year-old alexander yon out of

emeryville. he was taken into custody overnight. and again, this is just there is a lot of debris on the road here in the intersection. a number of police officers have the whole thing roped off. we asked how long is this investigation going to take, how long is this intersection going to be closed? they tell us 9:00 a.m. now at the earliest. certainly you're going to want more ways to get around this and for more on that i'll turn it over to mike. >> thank you for that because 6:00 a.m., that wasn't such a big deal as far as traffic. but 9:00 will be a problem, folks getting to school and the freeway, and to the dumbarton express. we'll show you the map. my map is similar to the one we showed you, decoto at fremont. i want you to notice off the bottom 84 t dumbarton bridge turns into decoto. before you get to the intersection you are closed off. that's where the nursery s. you can't access it, or the opposite direction off fremont boulevard or off of paseo padre. pak paseo padre around to exit

the freeway or over to highway 84 and get you close to that dumbarton bridge on ramp. folks taking the dumbarton express, you have to find a reroute through the surface streets to get to your parking lot. we'll track this coming up. >> thanks so much. we also have other breaking news this morning. two people shot to death aboard the "uss mahan" overnight. forcing the largest naval base to go into lockdown. investigators say a civilian shot and killed a sailor and then the civilian was killed by security forces at naval station norfolk a. spokesperson would not release the circumstances but said the scene is secure and they are not looking for additional suspects. the lockdown now has been lifted. it's unhere whether the civilian had permission to be aboard the ship or where he got the gun. >> this morning police in palo alto are looking for at least two people who broke into a woman's home and managed to get away before a s.w.a.t. team got

inside. the s.w.a.t. team thought it had the men holed up in the home for several hours. bob redell joins us live in palo alto this morning. bob, police have left the neighborhood but the burglar still on the loose? >> reporter: police have suspended their active search for these two burglars, these two suspects. but they do have images of these individuals that could ultimately lead to their arrest. that was police last night ordering the suspects to come out of the home on ames avenue. but after several hours s.w.a.t. eventually made entry to discover the suspects were not inside. it turns out they had escaped before the first officer ever arrived. to give you background this started around 6:30, a mother was returning to the home from errands with her baby and another adult relative, she noticed that a back door had been forced open. while on the phone with 911 she

heard a door slam in her home, she turned to a 21st century technology to confirm that yes, her house had been burglarized. >> she then used her smart phone to check her video surveillance system in her home, and was able to see what she thought were two individuals whom she did not recognize inside her home. >> reporter: that shows two strangers in a bedroom, then the video cuts out as one of the suspects cut the power to her in-home system. police initially thought that this video they were watching was a live feed hence the call to s.w.a.t. and the standoff. it wasn't until later they realized the video was a recording of what happened, not a live feed. after the standoff police did search for the suspects in the area before calling off the search just before midnight. reporting live in palo alto, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> san francisco's police chief will hold a community meeting to

talk about a recent deadly police shooting. people gathered at a park last night to remember the officer shot and killed friday night by police responding to reports of a man in the area with a weapon. police say nieto pointed that at them and officers then opened fire, friends say he was carrying a taser because he works os a security guard. the meeting will be at 6:00 at the leonard flynn elementary school. >> we continue to follow a developing story, crews waiting until the sun comes up to resume the search for survivors after a massive mudslide in washington. 14 people have died and almost 180 people still listed as missing. the slide smashed a small community north of seattle saturday morning. today, volunteers are headed to the area to help. peggy bunker joins us with that side of the story. good morning. >> good morning. imagine the desperation the residents of this small

washington town of oso are feeling. searchers cannot work fast enough to dig through the miles worth of mud that is settling in like cement. eight bodies were found on monday. bringing the death toll to 14. over 176 are reported missing, families have nothing else to do but continue looking. >> i want to know where my husband is. you know. i just need to know. >> 30 homes were leveled and despite dozens of rescue teams working 24/7, it's dangerous for them as well. the mud is quick sand-like, very unstable. the other complication is just the size of the mudslide. >> it's about a mile long, probably 1,000 feet wide, you know, probably an estimate of 15 million cubep yards ever

material. >> the sheriff's office says the number of those killed will likely go up after emergency management officials express doubt that any one else would be found alive. they stated that of the 176 reported missing some of the names on the missing list could be repeats so they hope that missing list number will dwindle. the piece of earth that moved, 1500 feet wide, 600 feet tall, we're learning it registered twice on the seismograph. it should be noted from start to finish the slide lasted an entire hour so. a huge amount of damage, very devastating situation for the town of oso. >> thank you. back at home t santa clara water district will give us a better idea on the water supply. earlier this month the district decided to impose mandatory 20% water cutbacks. it's going to soon tell farmers and golf course and people in kurl parts of the district to stop accessing creek water.

we could see some thunderstorms, you want to keep that in mind. i love seeing this though. those showers, keep on coming in through thursday with intermittent breaks. you do want to keep the umbrella handy throughout the next few days. how much rain and what does this mean to tahoe? we'll go over that in my next report. let's check your drive and say good morning to our highway man. >> traffic tuesday, heavier volume. we're waiting for that report. here the san mateo bridge, pretty standard but we are watching the traffic flow, some may use the san mateo bridge. the map will show you west 92 on the map with the arrow not a problem. 84 the dumbarton bridge close to the crash in fremont, the yellow dot where decoto or the dumbarton becomes decoto road. use paseo padre.

have something so addictive maybe that's not such a bad thing. i never played. have you? >> no. i heard great things about it but i think you're right because i'm thinking to myself i hear zynga in my mind. bertha coombs. >> i don't need another addiction. >> that too. >> exactly. i think i avoided it for that same reason. >> we have been -- we have been without rain and it's all coming all at once. >> might as well face it you're addicted to rain, scott it's going to be nice. i like to put my hair up and do that dance. then take it down. if the you want to get yourself ready properly today you want to account for the two different parts of the day. we've got a little bit of rain on the way. we're going to hold it off until about 10:00 a.m. that means if you want to take a little bit of a run, go for a walk with the kids, walk the dog, you have several hours before that rain moves in. live radar shows you we're starting to get active around here. a lot of this is actually verga,

precipitation that dissipates because our air mass is dry. look at this, you can see this line of showers, this is starting to develop as it starts to get more moisture from the system of low pressure moving in think we're going to see our first showers along the peninsula by about 9:00, 10:00 a.m. the rainfall totals i'm going more aggressively than some of the models but they sure have been coming up. that's great news. 47 in the south bay, 50 degrees to kick off the day along the peninsula. look at the difference between yesterday's highs and today's. yesterday was so warm. we hit the upper 70s. today we're going to trade those in for the mid-60s with rain and maybe a little lightning. i wanted to show you the temperature trend. this is stanford. it's going to be nice. a little below average, 62 today down to 60 tomorrow and 65 by thursday with on and off

showers, a break for friday as high pressure starts to build in. more rain on the heels as we head into this weekend on the first two systems that come through. just the first two system, this is not including what we expect over the weekend. three inches possible, especially in the higher elevations in the north bay. 2 to 3 inches in the north bay hills. and we expect about a half inch to an inch of rain where we always get that rain shadow. this is good news. look at this. let me show you a preview of what we can expect in tahoe just from the first two systems looking really good especially in the higher elevations. a foot and then the weather game changer comes in. we head into the weekend. that could provide maybe three feet of snow. so yeah, stick around we'll take you through the forecast. let's say good morning. traffic tuesday, mike. >> it is. we expect the heavier volume to kick in around the bay, so far we're looking standard. this is not a problem as far as

freeway flow. an issue off one of the bridges through the morning. confirmation that they expect this intersection fremont boulevard at decoto road to be closed until about 9:00 a.m. that's school traffic and a lot of commuters and the bulk of the traffic heading to and from 880 and the dumbarton bridge. this is just highway 84 turns to decoto road. we have this crash, christie smith will give us details on that. i'll tell you this revout going to cause surface streets to be crowded. down here to thornton and get on the dumbarton bridge. this will affect the dumbarton express. keep that in mind heading across the bay will be an issue before you get on the bus in fact. we see a smooth flow, you can get off at paseo padre or thornton. before you get to 880.

approaching the bay bridge, an even drive. up off the richmond/san rafael bridge, you're at speed as well. we're looking at the san rafael area, southbound 101, a light volume and 101 on the peninsula, no delays here or in the south bay. back to you. >> thanks so much, mike. it is 5:21. city of santa clara denying reports that youth soccer leagues will be kicked off the field next to the levi stadium. the city says reports the 49ers are trying to take over the youth soccer park to build more stadium parking are false and people will have access to the three fields even on 49ers games days. last week members of the league said 49ers owner jed york went back on a frooms build several new soccer fields in the area. the city council will take up the plan to transfer 2 million to the parks and rec department. >> it's 5:21.

5:24. arnold schwarzenegger stopped by "the tonight show" last night talked to jimmy fallon about the old austrian tank he owns. he paid $20,000 for the tank he used to drive when it was part of the austrian army as a teen. he says it's the same tank that got him into a lot of trouble when he was about 18 years old. >> we decided, my friend who had the tank and the more modernized tank i said let's see who is faster down this hill. so we took off. and we drove down this hill like at least 40 miles an hour.

>> put it in hill mode. >> in the middle of the night we didn't see where we were going, we crashed into trees and bushes, but at the time we came down to the bottom i beat him even though he had the more modern tank but i realized that the whole infantry, 15 guys standing on top of the tank i forgot to tell them to get off the tank. so they were just holding on and then they were falling off and i heard the screams the whole time. ah! what is going on here. screaming. all these guys were falling off. i got to the bottom there was no one on the tank except i was in the tank. >> what a story. he was punished for that stunt. >> what a life. >> exactly. interesting. >> well, let's check in with christina. some rain on the way. >> i bet you that former

governor schwarzenegger is pretty happy about it. california is in a drought. i'm going to talk to gavin newsom about it. we're putting together a drought special. it's going to air early april. for today, rain on the way. which is great news and we're going to continue this rainy pattern for the next seven, maybe eight, nine days. it depends on the atmosphere river, that pineapple express coming back in the bay area. i'm going to show you when. count on showers and highs in the 60s. here is mike. >> these folks are moving slower than they were five minutes ago. this is dublin westbound 580 around as thea hara. and there is a smooth drive. all the lanes getting crowded. traffic tuesday, plays out like this. out of livermore a good deal of slowing. this is when we see the slowdown as well as 84. showing toward that interchange. a smoother drive closer to the bay but all of those folks heading up out of the tri-valley watching the san mateo bridge with no problems, it's eastbound

we continue to follow breaking news. a deadly crash forces investigators to shut down a major intersection in fremont. you can see all of the debris there, could be hours until this road is reopened. we're going to have a live update coming up next. as a result of that closure we have reroutes. why this crash may have implications for folks coming from the peninsula. >> we're not just focused on the short-term. the big pattern change starts today, continues into the weekend.

we're tracking a lot of rainfall. >> let's take you across the bay area, the san mateo bridge picking up. a hazy start to this tuesday, march 25th. this is "today in the bay." a very good morning to you. thanks so much for joining us. i'm laura garcia-cannon. >> i'm scott mcgrew. we have a live look at san francisco and the embarcadero, rain could arrive in the hour. san jose won't be spared either. a wet morning expected across the bay area. meteorologist christina loren will have our tuesday forecast for you in about four minutes. >> right now we have an update to breaking news in fremont. police remain on the scene of a deadly crash at the intersection of decoto road and fremont boulevard. several blocks in the area are still shut down and it is impacting the morning commute. christie smith joins us live in fremont with the latest on this investigation. good morning.

>> reporter: good morning to you. this is really a horrible accident the more we learn and there is debris all over the road. i'm going to step aside and you can see what's there. it's hard to see the car that was involved in this deadly wreck but it's in the distance there. what police tell us they arrested the driver in a mini cooper they believe he was under the influence when he slammed into a motorcyclist, hitting and killing the man. fremont police say that the driver did not stop overnight but kept going through decoto road and fremont boulevard, the intersection here, slammed into a pole t car caught fire and the driver got out and took off on foot. police followed him. they arrested him but say it was actually a quick thinking taco bell employee who first noticed that something was wrong before the wreck when the driver in the mini cooper, he says, was acting belligerent and strange in the

drive-through and took off in the car. that's when police started looking for the car, a mini cooper. they located the driver but at that point the damage was done. >> there is motorcycle debris all over. it's a horrific scene. fire, medical personnel arrived. they did pronounce the individual deceased. he appears to be an adult male and our suspect is a 23-year-old emeryville resident. >> reporter: a pass ear by told police that the victim was laying on the road. that's when police found the man on the motorcycle. again deceased. we're told that the coroner is on the way. the man arrested, alexander yaun. earlier they were saying at least 9:00 a.m. until the intersection here at fremont and decoto opened up. now they are shaking their head saying it will probably be much later. you would want to avoid this

area while the investigation continues. reporting live in fremont, christie smith. back to you. >> so much debris. must have been a powerful crash. we're looking after 9:00 a.m. and that is a very busy intersection. i want to check with mike for a look how to get around this. >> i live in fremont and this is a major intersection off of 880 and highway 84. let me show what you we're talking about on our maps. the rest of the bay, a heavier volume starting for the tri-valley. in fremont closure of fremont and decoto, the sensors off from the left 84 across the dumbarton bridge. you can take paseo padre. that is getting you out of the area. to the south will take you around. from that side not so much of a problem as surface street traffic some heading to get

parking for the dumbarton express on the bus across the bridge, you'll be held up by at least a couple of blocks of reroutes and that will be a problem. not easy access there. we talked about the rest of the bay looking smooth out of the tri-valley. back to you. >> take a look at this video a. car and a cab crashing into a fire hydrant. look at that water six stories in the area. the cab hit the hydrant after it was hit by another car. this happened about 1:00 this morning near the intersection of hydes and o'farrell streets. nobody was injured. >> the san mateo sheriff's department investigating a deadly shooting. deputies were called to the trailer park in redwood city. it's across from fair oaks elementary. when they arrived they found a person unresponsive with at least one gunshot wound. >> new developments in

washington state. the search picks back up this morning for possible survivors of that deadly mudslide. 18 southern california will head up to the area to offer their help in the bay area red cross sending its own people to help as well. peggy is in the newsroom with details. good morning. >> good morning. terrible situation there in washington state. now governor brown has deployed 18 search and rescue specialists from five california-based task forces to help with that search. stating that the highly skilled responders might be able to provide assistance that they need but considering that mud slide hit on saturday it is getting harter to hold out hope. eight were found on monday bringing the death toll to 13. over 176 are still reported missing. families have nothing teels do but continue searching. a brief moment of joy when a

woman's dog was pulled from the rubble, lots of cuts and very cold but alive. the woman who lived in the home with the dog, she is still missing. 30 homes were leveled and despite dozens of rescue teams that are working 24/7 to help it's dangerous for them as well. the smud very unstable. some of the seasoned teams have had to turn back at times. the other complication is the size of the slide. >> it's about a mile long probably 1,000 feet wide. probably an timt of 15,000 cubic yards. >> the number of those killed will likely go up after emergency management officials express doubt anybody else would be pulled out alive. about 176 people on the missing list, some could be duplicates so hope that the numbers will be smaller. that chocolate lab, buddy, he provided a lot of hope and

thought if buddy was alive perhaps others will be too. on monday president obama declared an emergency for the town, why so many agencies including ours in california are now responding. so holding on to any hope that we can. >> definitely. >> let's check in with christina loren. there are raindrops on the way. >> you know, scott mcgrew returns and so does the rain. coincidence? i think not. i can tell you right now we have a really good looking day shaping up. we're tracking the shower activity as it starts to move closer to the bay area. we're still a few hours away. 9:21 this morning, temperature this is morn rg pretty mild. it's not too cold. you want to make sure you have your jacket and that umbrella. look at the north bay, 39 degrees, the only city touching on the 30s. it's going to be cold, nice and

clear and the clouds increase. count on your first showers in santa rosa by about 9:30. we are going to end up in the low 60s so not too cold. no 50s as highs but quite a difference from where we ended up yesterday. temperatures today 60 degrees in san francisco, 64 degrees in the south bay. take you through your change you are headed outdoors, this is what you can expect as we head into the day. a little shower activity after about 9:00 a.m. temperatures comfortable as well. then you'll notice the winds picking up, a windchill factor. mostly dry for your morning commute. take you into this afternoon. showers spread to the south by mid morning. much activity here until about 11:00 a.m. then showers will continue into your evening. overall temperatures comfortable, 64 in the peninsula, south bay 64, and periods of rain in san francisco.

a closer look at the rain shower timing on the futurecast coming up in my next report. right now it's traffic tuesday. yeah, we have a couple of issues. >> we're going to take you to the bay bridge, yeah, we have a backup starting for the cash lanes off of the berkeley curve. those tour the right. we're talking about a heavier volume, that's why we call it traffic tuesday, and there is a smoother flow approaching. there is the backup. we show you the approach. the maps show you the quadrant around the bay bridge, the maze, the east shore, all of those are moving relatively smoothly. the volume heavier than the rest of the day. a smoother flow north of there, north of the san mateo bridge and toward bay bridge with north 880 and north 101 on either side of the bay. slower out of livermore, westbound 580 to the dublin interchange and then fremont we have the closure for decoto and fremont, that will go on for much of the morning. we'll talk more about that.

a south bay smooth flow starting to build. >> coming up, locked on a train overnight. hear from the south bay woman left by caltrain employees. >> the supreme court takes up the issue of contraceptives. one retailer arguing it should not have to do something against its religious beliefs. live at the steps of the supreme court coming up.

in just over an hour the u.s. supreme court will convene to hear two cases challenging the country's health law. at issue, whether for profit companies can be required to provide free contraceptives the if it violates the owner's religious beliefs. tracie potts with a look at the arguments. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. in the key here is for profit companies. we're not talking about nonprofits, churches, they are exempted by the obama

administration. but if you have a company with 50 or more employees the affordable care act requires you to provide certain health services in your insurance, certain women services including free birth control. these companies owned by religious families and they put that into practice in their companies like hobby lobby out of oklahoma, the companies are arguing that it violates their religious beliefs to be forced essentially they argue, to provide certain types of contraceptives. on the other side the government says it has a compelling interest to make sure that women who work at those companies have the same free health care as everyone else under the affordable care act. so those are the arguments we expect the court to hear, they have 90 minutes of argument. many people who spent the night on the sidewalk to get in have gone in. you may hear some of the demonstrations down behind me. a lot of people very, very interested in this case. >> a lot of people paying attention. thanks a lot.

the supreme court ruling will affect employees here in the bay area. hobby lobby has locations in morgan hill and antioch, it plans to open another location in dublin next month and one in concord in may. >> in the meantime, santa clara university was the center of debate over the contraception and health benefits earlier this year. last month the university upheld a decision by the school president to take away an employee's right to elective abortion health care coverage. they say the decision keeps with the university's catholic and jesuit mission and identity. the change takes effect in january. >> an update to breaking news. investigators say the civilian who managed to get in the world's largest naval base on a docked navy destroyer wrestled a gun from a guard and shot a sailor. the civilian boarded at naval station norfolk last night, shot the sailor before he was gunned down by security forces.

the base was briefly locked down but that has been lifted. a spokesperson did not release the circumstances of that shooting. to get on base civilians have to be escorted or have a pass, officials are still trying to figure out how that man got on base. >> palo alto police looking for at least two burglars following a 6-hour standoff. the s.w.a.t. team thought it had the men in a home on ames avenue near ross road. bob redell live in palo alto. bob, the homeowner was able to watch the burglary on her smart phone. tell us about that. >> reporter: she was, and because they captured images of the two suspects police probably have a good chance ever ultimately finding these two individuals and making an arrest. that was police last night ordering the suspects to come out of the home, after several
