good morning to you, straight up 6:00. thank you for joining us. i'm peggy bunker. laura is off today. >> i'm scott mcgrew. developing news for you out of san francisco. a driver pulled over by police under arrest this morning after officers found a stick of dynamite inside his pickup truck. suspect pulled over last night on mason street. "today in the bay" chase cain joins us live in san francisco. investigators also taking a close look at the suspect's home, as well. >> they sure are, scott. they wrapped up that search at their home within the last two hours or so. came into this house in vallejo in the russian hill neighborhood. they came to this house at 2:30. u.s. park police made what at first they thought was a routine traffic stop on a red pickup truck. they began talking to the driver and they suspected that there may have been marijuana inside the vehicle and then the driver told them that he had fireworks and handed what we have now

learned a stick of dynamite. the driver handed that stick of dynamite to park police. they call ed in the san franciso bomb squad and they detonated that explosive there on the scene. no one was hurt. but, a few hours later they came to this home on vallejo street where they believe the man lived. they talked to some people inside the house and then eventually got permission to search the home on vallejo. they were in there for two, two and a half hours and eventually came out with a half dozen bags. we're still not sure what exactly were inside those bags. we are still waiting to hear from park police about that. park police and san francisco police cleared the scene here on vallejo a couple hours ago. does not seem any immediate danger but, of course, we'll continue to fall hoe this and see what they found inside that home. >> any notion why this man would have had dynamite, something related to work or something? any reezen? >> that's a great question. you can certainly infer things that the man was driving a

pickup truck, could have been related to his work. raised suspicion with san francisco police and bomb squad. >> the scene is safe on vallejo, as well. >> absolutely. >> thank you much. now the stow away from the south bay who made it all the way to hawaii allegedly tucked in a wheel well of an airborne plane may have been trying to get back to africa. bob redell live at the mineta san jose airport this morning. this is one of the stories that has many people saying, i don't know if this is possible. >> apparently it is if you look at the security footage, which we haven't seen yet. good morning to you, peggy. according to maui police, they believe that this 15-year-old stow away hopped the fence for that dangerous journey across the pacific in hopes to get to africa where his mother lives. apparently he's unhappy with his home situation here in the south bay. you can take a look at this video. he lives in this house in santa clara with his father and step

mom, who you can see denied our request for an interview. it is reportedly a crowded house, too many kids inside. he argued with his dad about this over the weekend and then ran away with the intent of flying back to aphfrica where h biological mother lives. security footage shows him scaling a fence around 1:00 in the morning sunday. about 12 minutes later showed him climbing into the wheel well of hawaiian flight 45. police believe he misunderstood the writing on that aircraft thinking it would get him to africa, instead, with no intention of going to maui. miraculously he survived the roughly five-hour flight at an extremely high altitude with little oxygen where the temps dipped well below zero. he did tell police he passed out and doesn't remember much of the flight, which makes sense according to medical experts we heard from. >> he was probably unconscious for most of the flight. you know, once he got up that high and that cold he went into a state of suspended animation which probably helped him in survival.

>> according to one aviation expert, it is possible for a person to barely fit into a wheel well without being crushed by the landing gear. also a thought that the tires heated up from takeoff might have kept him warm. the boy was found walking the tarmac in maui, disoriented having trouble with his hearing. he is in a hospital expected to be fine. they want to make sure he is in a safe environment before handing him back to his family. >> then, of course, bob is bringing up a lot of security issues, as well. we get pulled over for nail clippers and bottles of water and here is someone who hopped the fence. >> they are in line with the tsa and the faa regulations when it comes to that fence here behind me. so that maybe becomes the bigger question. does the faa or tsa need to up what they require of airports. indeed security certainly

under review, though, again, they're not making any apologies. they are under federal requirements. passengers certainly shaken by the story. they say, hey, it shouldn't be that easy to get on an airplane. >> anybody could do the hopping and get on an airplane and that security breach. >> now, so far no one has filed any charges against that young man. well, "today" show will continue our coverage and you can always go to our website and get new details and just search stow away. in the meantime, let's check the forecast as we give you a live look this morning at san jose and san francisco. >> looking beautiful there. while you were sleeping, rain fell on parts of the bay area. take a look at this video here. you see the raindrops early this morning on church street in san francisco. a welcome sight there. we'll take any raindrop we can get around here. >> let's join christina loren. >> the people who live in san francisco loves when it rains because you get the natural

cleansing. i can tell you as we head throughout the day today, temperatures will be chilly and you need your jacket and ditch the umbrella at this point. as the showers are clearing out of here, the wind is picking up, though, as the system moves out and unstable air mass behind it really represented here by the strong wind speeds. it's really cool when you have wind this strong, you can actually see the clouds courtesy of that storm system kind of moving out with the naked eye. that's what you get to see this morning when you take off for work and just keep in mind, it's slick out there. give yourself extra time. we're 52 at the east bay and say for san francisco, that's where the wind is the strongest right now, right at the immediate coast and through the east bay hills. by about 10:00 today, calm conditions will develop and we're going to see a really pretty sunset tonight. so, as we head through the next three days, this is what we're expecting. a few showers this morning, afternoon clearing and tomorrow

we'll see a lot of fog because of the moisture that's coming in this morning. low clouds and fog this morning and a nice, sunny finish to the day. cloudy conditions for tomorrow afternoon and then as we head through your thursday looking to warm you up just a touch but still going to be mild out there. only expegging the low 70s in places mrik s s like san jose. bringing in measurable precipitation and maybe a quarter of an inch in the east bay and maybe the same right here in san jose. keep that umbrella handy but ditch it for today and need to pull it back out by about friday. we'll keep you updated on this and seven-day forecast shows you that weekend, little bit more rain on the way. so, we're keeping things active and keeping things intrusting in the weather department. let's see if that's the case in the traffic department. >> very interesting on this tuesday. very different story from what it looked like yesterday. yesterday at this time metering lights were just turned on and the traffic was not nearly as

stacked up as it is now. right now two earlier accidents one at hilltop and the other at sunol valley and both have cleared from the scene, but you can see stack up goes back to 4. the other thing i mentioned, the bay bridge approach and, in fact an accident on 880 near the embarcadero and that is keeping things slow near the oracle arena and take you back outside and show you what it is looking like. lots of clouds and the wind really going to remain an issue, as christina was mentioning over those area bridges. that's why we want to make sure you're aware of that. both hands on the wheel this morning. let's also show you what's happening through the altamont pass. red starting to build through livermore and even on sunol we're seeing speeds up to only 30 miles per hour. in dublin, though, once you get past livermore look outside steady stream of cars moving in without a problem and no accidents through this particular location and one final stop takes us down into the santa clara valley and see lots of green on the map, that

means things are good to go. a major development deal to sell the development center to san jose and santa clara school districts will take a step forward today. the city council expected to vote to buy the 81-acre plot of land from the state. santa clara unified school district will vote thursday. part of the land will be used to build new schools for ingrowing population in san jose. earth day today and that really helps out morgan hill as they're putting their bag band into effect today. people will need to bring reusable shop or pay 10 cents per recyclable paper bag. already banned single use plastic bags. 6:10 still ahead on "today in the bay" the supreme court case that could change the way you watch tv. plus -- >> these are words i never said hippety. never said hippety. >> really? ever, brian?

several businesses were evacuated just as a precaution and the driver was arrested. however, the story doesn't end there. officers just finished searching the suspect's house in this russian hill neighborhood to make sure that there were no more explosives. you can see from this picture here, rather quiet right now. chase cain is in san francisco getting more information on the story and ean update coming up n 15 minutes. very few officers on the city's force willing to report colleagues that misbehave or break the law. the department conducted 83% fewer investigations into employees last year that were based on evidence submitted by other officers. the chief says complaints are key in deciding whether an officer needs to be retrained or disciplined. he does note it is possible complaints are down because new training programs have helped officers behave better in the field. the city council will address those new numbers at their meeting next week. time to take a look at your

completely clear conditions for the greater bay area and the rain returns as we head through late week which is great news for those of you suffering from the allergies of the season. whenever we get the rain lays down the particulate matter. temperatures are going to be cool all the way across the board and then we bring in that next round of rain as we head into your friday. so, we'll talk more about this coming up. right now, let's check your drive and say good morning to anthony slaughter. >> good morning to you at home. the good news is we had serious accidents earlier and those are cleared from the board and give you an update as to what is happening. the first one right on 80 westbound at hilltop and cleared from the scene, but you can see all the orange and yellow. that denotes that things are very slow coming through this area because not only one accident but three accidents at one time during this separate or during this particular area. now, let's show you what's happening outside and coming in from the east shore freeway here are all the cars that were stuck behind that accident. in fact, only two lanes were

getting through at one point. so, the good news i mentioned, that's open now, but still bogged down because all the cars are trying to get through. let's show you what's happening as we switch gears and take you further down into oakland. camera shaking around and both hands on the wheel this morning and 880 southbound really heavy. northbound moving without a problem and no accidents to report of here and did have a stall here at the embarcadero accident that was off to the shoulder. right now further south takes you into fremont. 880 southbound still lots of cars on the road and no problems here and not only through fremont, but hayward, as well. switching gears and taking you over to the peninsula side. showing palo alto some love this morning. southbound coming in, metering lights are on and, again, no accidents to report on, not only in palo alto but through san jose, as well. good news. seems like we're recovering quite well from those earlier accidents. peggy, back to you. the fda is considering proposing rules for e-cigarettes as early as this month. this comes as members of

congress and public health groups are raising their concerns over the safety of the popular device. now, many have questioned marketing strategies saying e-cigarettes marketed to be amour appealing to young adults. several cities have already voted to ban the devices. turning wattner to rum or even vodka in an instant. powdered alcohol making mixed drinks as easy as adding water and attracting new controversy on capitol hill. tracie potts joins us from washington. the makers of powdered alcohol thought they had government approval to put this in stores, but all of a sudden that is not the case. >> right. well, overnight we learned that approval took a bit of a twist. the substance itself, the powdered drinks literally comes in the little packets like lemonade or iced tea has been approved but the labeling on the package is not approved. the companies have to go back and do some tweaking on the amount of powder in that package and how they labeled it. the company said, no problem, we

can do that still on track to make that available to people by fall. but there is certainly some controversy about it. madd, for example, mothers against drunk driving, saying making it so easily accessible is not a good thing for children and they're concerned that this is probably not something that the government should approve. but, frankly, it looks like it's already in that direction moving in that direction. >> now, tracie, a lot of concerns here. parents could name about 1,000, but one they're talking about is somebody might snort the powder and then, obviously, you can sneak it into maybe inwhere you could never sneak a bottle of alcohol. >> the company now on their website, initially told it wasn't there but now on its website it says, no, you should not snort it. that's not the purpose for it. it's literally, you know, sort of like you make the lemonade and put it in the bottle and shake it and poof, you have a drink. in terms of where it could be used, that is a big concern. the company says there is a lot

of misreporting going on out there. the manufacturer, but, frankly, with it being so easily accessible, can people just sneak it in their pockt and not have to worry about taking a bottle? the whole idea was convenience. you don't have to take a heavy, bulky bottle of something with you. yes, going to the theater, going to the stadium, you don't have to buy drinks there and spend a lot of money. you could just take them with you and completely undetected. you get a bottle of water or some other drink, a soda once you get there and all of a sudden you have an alcoholic beverage. >> science getting far ahead of the law, we'll continue to watch this tracie potts in washington, thank you much. 6:37 right now. 46 days and still no sign of that missing malaysian airlines plane. we'll tellwhy victims' families can file lawsuits in the u.s., even if the airline is based overseas. got a story for nbc investigative unit? call the tip line at

>> i wish they were here. oh, we're looking good. we're looking good. you know what i mean, this is the type of bay area weather that some people enjoy, some people don't love the clouds. if you lived here for any duration of time, you know the low clouds come with the territory. temperatures today pretty chilly. what happened is all this moisture that you're looking at on your screen from san jose, part of a storm system that is exiting right now. although we did have a pretty good reinforcing shot of rain overnight and highways are still slick in spots. take it easy out there. gorgeous start othe day. little overcast here in san hosway and meanwhile clearing out nicely in the east bay. look at sunol and i love watching these live cameras. just a beautiful start to the day. you can really see that here from san francisco, although our camera is shaking from time to time, little windy out there. take it easy, especially at the immediate coast where our winds are sustained 15 to 20 miles per hour. and that is strong enough to kind of buffet you if you drive

a high-profile vehicle. you could get buffeted this morning. 64 for the north bay and a gorgeous day shaping up. especially because we need this moisture. afternoon clearing, we're going to have perfect air quality and that always happens whenever we get the moisture, but what always happens, as well, low clouds settle in. tomorrow morning that is the case and little bit of fog on thursday morning. cool air mass remains and then we get some showers on friday. look at this, maybe up to quarter of an inch. overall sunday, as well, another round of rain. >> kind of crazy, where did our winter go? right here. let's talk about some action happening on those roadways. 80 westbound through the maze and serious accidents. one at sunol valley and hilltop. all the clouds were behind and only two lanes getting through. this is going to remain a very cool spot once you get to the

bay bridge approach and the fog and really stop and go traffic and let's show you what is happening on your traffic maps. again, the reds and yellows and once you get past this if you're coming in from fremont, hayward and southbound slows through hayward approaching 92 and picks up through 84 and picks up once you get past the dumbarton bridge and lots of red from livermore through dublin and that shows that speeds are only up to 30 to 40 miles per hour. you can see as we take you outside from our sky cam. a little bit of a break here, but, again, as we were mentioning traffic kind of stop and go at times moving through this particular location. takes us down into the silicon valley and 101 starting to slow approaching 280 and starts to slow once you get into the santa clara valley and 85 slow, as well. let's show you what is happening outside on the 101 and steady stream of cars moving in and see how it is stop and go in certain
