>> that's what one man awoke to, that's what one man awoke to at 3:00 this morning. several gunshots. when police arrived they found this man bleeding from one gunshot wound and he was conscious and talking and anything to help them find the person who shot him. they are at the hospital keeping an eye on his condition. he's stable, but his condition is serious. not clear what led up to this shooting, but a man who lives a few doors down, the one we just heard from, he tells us that his neighborhood has gotten rougher over time in his opinion. >> i told my brother that i would really like to move out. you know what i mean? just getting nasty here sometimes. >> you had this conversation before the shooting? >> oh, yeah, just friday, just last friday. talked to my brother, yeah, we better move. >> as far as the investigation goes, as i mentioned police are getting ready to remove that silver lexus that was parked in the middle of snow drive with

the driver's side door open and also searching in front of this small apartment complex. and in front of a house that's next door. not clear what evidence they are gathering out here. they have spoken to people out here and from those interviews, they have not intdicated whethe or not they have a better idea who committed this shooting. they do know who the man is in the hospital, but, again, as i mentioned they were first talking when they found him out here. reporting live here in south san jose, bob redell. more breaking news now in san jose. crews put out a fire at a commercial building in north san jose this morning. someone reported seeing smoke called 911 and crews arrived and called for backup once but did contain the flames within an hour. the building is on old bayshore highway right where 880 and highway 101 intersect.

it is possible someone was living inside that building when that fire started. new video this morning, damage left behind by a group of vandals flipping over smart cars. >> "today in the bay" christie smith is live in san francisco where police are trying to figure out why people would do this. so sad to see them tipped over on their sides. >> good morning to you. we've been looking at this video this morning and it is an odd sight. three smart cars tipped over in different position, but, of course, also vandalism against someone's property. san francisco police got a call at about 1:00 this morning about a group of people tipping a car over and running. that smart car was left tipped up on its rear near interstate 280 and on anderson street, another one tipped on its side in the street. we went back this morning just a short time ago, though, and the cars were gone. so, possibly the owners are aware of what happened. but 1:00 this morning, one man tells us he was surprised to see

people going after a tiny car as he stepped out to have a smoke. >> all of a sudden, i see eight hooded figures just walk out from the corner over here and walk up to the car. i thought they looked like they were up to no good and then, sure enough, they walk up to this smart car right here all huddled around it and then just lift it up and set it on its hind legs. >> now, a third smart car was tipped up on its roof on anderson street, too. i checked the website and one of the models listed $13,000. certainly not amusing to the people who own them. but this apparently isn't new. on that website there is a forum by owners with conversations about what can be done to stop smart car tipping. reporting live in san francisco, christie smith, "today in the bay." >> before you go, do you or the

neighbors have a sense that maybe this is a tech protest sort of thing, we've seen that, or just a bunch of eight guys that maybe left the bar and saw a smart car or several smart cars? >> well,ia kno iyou know, it's say. that's something we considered. when we were driving around we saw a number of other smart cars. some of them that were convertib convertibles and they weren't tipped over, just parked there. hard to say exactly what these people's intention was. >> what in the world they were thinking. >> make a whole lot of sense. thank you, christie. also new this morning olympian oscar pistorius took the stand at his own murder trial. pistorius started his testimony by apologizing to the family of his girlfriend, reeva steenkamp. >> i would love to apology. there hasn't been a moment since this tragedy happened that i haven't thought about your family. >> cameras were not allowed to

westbound coming down through livermore and over here at the dublin interchange and seeing more slowing develop, once again, and the volume starting to cause speeds dipping down to 60, maybe 55 at their very worst down past and nothing dramatic. but heavier than last week because the tri valley schools are back this week. that means the parents and commuters are back, as well. tri valley and you are seeing slowing for north 238 and volume builds for southbound 580. d dumbarton bridge. this is a dramatic change. we have been telling you about that because of the new apple campus and you'll see traffic disrupted and maybe folks taking that route a little slower and towards wolf and that is circuit there and adjusting over the next week or so. just a note for south bay drivers. but the rest of your south bay, freeways move slowly.

as we get the building breeze and good air quality. let that air into your home. that will cool you off. 83 degrees and warm sunshine for today in the north bay and going to be warm just about all week long. see here for the next five days long from san jose and san francisco. you'll notice we'll cool you off towards the end of the week as we bring in some showers. looks like the best chance in san francisco and a cutoff low and i'm watching it closely. i'll let you know if that changes as we head through the next couple days. it's monday, mike, what are we working with? >> working with a different flow than last week and adjusting over the next month because of spring breaks. the peninsula is not a problem. showing red and orange in the east bay and zoom into that in a second. south bay shows a build for north 87 than we saw last week and the school districts that are off and the san jose schools are still on and a different flow of traffic. we're now seeing northbound slow down from 101, as well. we had that closure and crash at oakland road and caused the

closure of one lane. over here we have the closure for primridge avenue as they're expanding the apple campus. that closes today forever and that will change the flow of traffic and folks will have to adjust and watch the businesses on wolf are still open. the food and coffee over there, i'm being redundant. the slow down for 880. slower drive towards stevenson avenue and activity in the middle of the roadway that moved to the shoulder but the distraction and the build for traffic at the same time causes that slow down south of the dumbarton bridge. meanwhile, your typical pattern down towards the san mateo bridge continues for 880 and 238. westbound 580 continues a bit of a build and speeds come down 45 or 50 down through pleasanton and nothing really unexpected for this pattern, just heavier than it was last week. approach to the bay bridge. the orange zono lane there for

the east shore freeway and nearly a stall westbound at powell didn't help things and that's clear now and a slower drive towards berkeley and the berkeley curve. all lanes are filled. we had these lanes off to the left and starting to ease off a bit, but filling in, once again, a slower drive off the berkeley curve continues. back to you. >> mike, thank you much. breaking news for you. investigators outside an apartment complex in south san jose this morning looking into an overnight shooting. detectives still looking for the gunman. this is happening on snow drive near branham lane and highway 101. bob redell joins us live where crime scene tape still up at this hour. good morning, bob. >> where it's been for about four hours. good morning, scott. no arrests as of yet. one man in his 30s and he is the victim and he is in the hospital after getting shot in serious, but stable condition. he was shot about four hours ago outside that small apartment complex there on snow drive.

it's in a single family home next door to that apartment complex. it appears the shootings took place somewhere in that area either in front of the complex or the garage, that's where a lot of the investigation has been focused over the last four hours. if you look to the left in the middle of snow drive, we thought it was a silver but now looks like it is a gold lexus. the driver's side door had been open and looks like police will be taking that away, as well. not clear if that belonged to the victim, the suspect or someone else. again, one man shot in his 30s. serious, but stable condition. not clear what led up to the shooting. police are still looking for the person who put him in the hospital. reporting live in south san jose, bob redell, "today in the bay." more breaking news, crews put out a fire at a commercial building in north san jose this morning. broke out nearly four hours ago. someone reported seeing smoke, called 911. crews had to call for backup once, but contained the flames within an hour. the building is on old bay shore
