soldiers supposedly surrounding a military facility to block politicians from leaving the building. the military declaring martial law, but it waited for a formal takeover to announce it until the country's rival political leaders met for a series of face-to-face talks. after two days those talks failed. the military says it is acting to prevent violence and restore stability to the deeply divided country the chief of the army said the military will provide protection for foreigners. police officers patrolling the streets around the market where two people in suvs set off bombs earlier this morning. the attack killed 31, more than 90 others are hurt. news, photographers and vidographers were told not to take any pictures and many of them were forced to actually delete their images. the attack happened in the city not far from the country of kazakhstan. investigators say two suvs

crashed through barriers and into crowds of people at a busy market and threw a bomb out the window. china had blamed recent knife and bomb attacks on separatist militants. new this morning, we're waiting to learn more about the condition of a woman stabbed on the san jose trail overnight. so far police haare not releasi any information about a motive of a suspect this happened overnight not far from downtown and we'll certainly continue to follow that story and bring you details as we get them. a southern california woman who alleges she was held captive for ten years is now telling her story about being abducted by her mother's boyfriend when she was just 15 years old. that boyfriend will appear in a santa ana courtroom today. peggy bunker joins us now and, peggy, it sounds like there are two sides to this story. >> details are still emerging, laura. we are hearing from this woman who is 25 years old and telling a harrowing telling about being

drugged and kidnapped when she was 15 years old. two sides of this story are definitely emerging. some neighbors say they didn't think that anything was wrong. the victim has named garcia, now 41 years old as her abductor. garcia was arrested on tuesday and being held on $1 million bail. he's accused of false imprisonment and kidnap for rape. the victim said that she endured physical, mental and emotional assault for ten years. being forced to marry garcia and have a child with him. her family completely stopped looking for her and be deported to mexico if she left him. however, some neighbors said they never noticed anything was wrong. >> every weekend they would go out and do what a family would do. >> she could have drove to the police station and say, i don't feel safe. >> other neighbors, though, they say they thought the alleged victim was in distress.

she knew she had to get back into the house and always appeared to listen to him very closely and kept a very close eye on her. the nanny for the pair said that she never suspected a thing, even going so far to say that she thought they were the perfect couple, however, police very much think that something was wrong. once again, garcia will be in court to stand up for those charges. back to you. >> wow, such a strange story, thanks, peggy. meanwhile, a bay area mom will make her first court appearance this morning for child abuse charges arrested for allegedly attacking a student she says was bullying her daughter. "today in the bay" christie smith joins us live at the courthouse in santa rosa. christie, a chance the mother may actually talk today. >> good morning to you, that's what we're hearing and also hearing through her attorney that the mom is telling a very different story than what was originally reported. she is saying she did go to the school and confront this 12-year-old that she thought was bullying her daughter. and she said she never put her hands on the boy's neck.

but that's exactly what landed delia garcia-bratcher in jail. she's accused of touching and throttling this boy. the mom was arrested last weekend, she's accused of storming on to her daughter's campus at olivet elementary school and confronting a fifth grader that she thought was bullying her 12-year-old daughter and then grabbing his neck. but her attorney said that grabbing part never happened and her defense, if she's formally charged is going to be that she had to act. >> just for someone to walk in and do something like that, it's frightening. >> very understandable thing for a parent to do. if the school is not taking appropriate steps to protect her children from bullying, i think a lot of parents right now are saying, you go. >> we taulk to the superintendet

who said she was not aware of bullying and the visitor policy says you need to check in but the mom did not do that. deputies have been looking into the bullying accusations and they haven't been able to establish that it happened either. she's due in court this morning at 8:30. reporting live in santa rosa, christie smith, "today in the bay." >> thank you, christie. nice morning up in santa rosa where christie is. let's look at the golden gate bridge this morning. traffic appears to be moving smoothly. let's check that forecast now and meteorologist christina loren look at the microclimate forecast for the bay area. very different from where it is for the golden gate bridge. >> today will be one of those days. good thursday morning to you. so close to what could be a three-day weekend for you. we're still going to be here for you on monday. but i can tell you right now, if you want to make outdoor plans, go ahead and do so. everything you normally associate with the unofficial kickoff to summertime, water sports, golf, oh, yeah.

that's a slow drive towards fremont and pleasanton. back to the maps and we show you the rest of the bay looking pretty typical. north 101 shows a little build here and transit through all the areas and no delays for the system and around the bay, there you go. bay bridge toll plaza has the backup and metering lights on and shows you all lanes are filled in, but the maze and the berkeley curve are moving smoothly and slow lanes as christina pointed out. just be careful out there. >> we'reler all traffic all the time. there will be a meeting tonight to talk about plans to expand light rail service. >> plans to add light rail tracks in 2015. now the extra tracks will allow vta to offer expanded service in it area and help better comidate people headed to levi stadium in santa clara. another meeting tonight, b.a.r.t. will hear from the public and staff about fares for

airport. that's the only slowing we see right now and a smoother drive around the rest of your bay. 880 and castro valley and why you might want to use that as the alternate and stick it out and head south and might plan for about an extra 15 to 20 minutes and be prepared for that right now. looking out here towards the bay bridge which also flows very nicely. talking about transit, as well. getting across the bay or under the bay. b.a.r.t. system no delays and should be 50 any second. muni, cal tran and live shots outside and pal opo alto and gon gate bridge where we see the fog coming in from the north bay and no unusual delays and just a little slowing that we advise. back to you. >> thanks so much, mike. it's 6:20. it is also controversial two drugs in one bottle and it's going on the market here in california. >> so this being build as marijuana syrup. syrup is a combination of soda

this fire is feeding on forest land and much of it to burn here. the conditions here, like they are in the bay area, drought-stricken region. the fire here when it turns on for those hillsides it can quickly explode out of control. some 300 homes are in immediate threat of this fire but 3,000 homeowners have been warned, they may need to evacuate at a moment's notice. crews went door-to-door last night to get those evacuees prepared to leave when that call comes. a trigger point for that fire if it crosses a certain break, they're going to be forced to leave. the wind, the big concern. guys, back to you. >> all right, thanks miguel. this is according to a uc berkeley study. >> a natural satellite image of the fog. now, according to the study, the soupy, thick fog has been thinning out over the past three decades. possible reasons include global warming and a decrease in crop burning. the news very good for drivers

at 6:43. taking a live look at the big board this morning. down about eight points. 16,524. we've been watching the markets as they faired pretty well yesterday. announcing a military takeover of the government ask right now soldiers are supposedly surrounding a military facility in bangkok to block politicians from leaving. military declared martial law on tuesday but waited to announce a formal takeoff before they met for a series of face-to-face talks. after two days, those talks failed. the military is acting to prevent violence and restore stability to the deeply divided country. it has put a curfew in place.

the army chief says the military will provide protection for foreigners in thailand. a developing story, police officers patrolling the streets around the market where two people in suvs set off bombs earlier this morning. this is in china. more than 90 others hurt. news photographers and vid videoographers told not to take any pictures. this happened in the chinese city of urumqi. two suvs crashed through barriers into crowds of people at a busy market. people actually threw bombs out of the windows of those trucks. china has blamed recent knife and bomb attacks in the area on separatist militantmilitants. southern california woman who claimed she was held captive for ten years is now telling her story. she was abducted by her mother's boyfriend when she was just 15 years old. that boyfriend will appear in court today. >> "today in the bay" peggy

bunker joins us now. peggy, the neighbors that lived around this couple had a very different story. >> yeah, that's what is complicating this story. the neighbors are telling two different sides of the story. this could be a case of stockhom syndrome where you see those held captive actually bond with their abductors. they know this because the couple there have very different perceptions. the woman who is now 25 was 15 years old when she was abducted by this man. he drugged and kidnapped her and she's endured physical, mental assaults for more than a decade. created forged i.d.s for the pair and forced the girl to marry him. just three years ago, she gave birth to a baby fathered by garcia. the girl reported that she lost all hope after he told her that her family stopped looking for her. police say she did try to leave. >> my understanding is there was continued and repeated sexual assaults. on two occasions she tried to escape. he caught her. he beat her for her efforts.

>> but now that garcia has been arrested, neighbors are raising a lot of questions about this case. some say that the alleged victims seem to be incredibly fearful of him and others say, no, they were a happy couple that they saw often. we go to kate larsen who joins us now at bell gardens where this woman lives and i'm sure you're hearing the same thing. some people are saying this is very odd and they are a good family and others saying, no, something amiss here. >> absolutely, that's right. we're getting two very different stories from both neighbors and police. we know that garcia lived here with his wife, his alleged captor and some people who lived here thought they were a normal, happy couple as you mentioned. often seen playing outside here in the yard. but police are telling a very different story. they say garcia kidnapped his wife ten years ago. beat her, raped her and brain washed her. actually arranging for them to work together as a nighttime cleaning service so he could keep a watchful eye on her.

santa ana police say 42-year-old garcia allegedly forced his captor into marriage in 2007 and had a child with her in 2012 using fake documents to hide in plain sight less than a half mile from a police station. now, we are not showing the victim's face or naming her, but she is now 25 years old. she was reported missing in 2004 by her own mother, who suspected garcia, her live-in boyfriend at the time of sexually abusing her and abducting her daughter. the victim was born in mexico and arrived in the u.s. to live with her mother just six months before her abduction. kidnapping, garcia assaulted the victim's mother and drugged his victim before locking her in a garage. while holding her captive, garcia would threaten his alleged captor and wife with being deported. santa ana police say a decade

later she found her sister on facebook and gained the courage to come forward for help. right now garcia is booked on charges of kidnap for rape and lewd acts with a minor, as well as false imprisonment. he is being held right now at the santa ana jail and is scheduled to be arraigned today. that is the latest live in bell gardens, i'm kate larsen. >> thank you for those details, appreciate it one last night garcia told the girl that the mother was not looking for her and the family didn't care. not true, says police. the mother filed a missing person's report for the 15-year-old within hours of her disappearance. >> such a bizarre story, thank you very much. 6:48. a man was arrested overnight for a riot after a suspect shot and killed a suspect on the streets. he harassed a police dog and convinced others to join in. he and more than 100 others joined the streets last night in response to the police shooting

comfortable. as we head throughout the day today, widespread low cloud cover and a sunny finish and right now mostly in the 50s and want to show you that shot one more time to give you an idea of how far inland those low clouds span this morning all the way to the tri-valley in san jose and overcast start to the day and it will wind up warmer than yesterday. clouds clear 9:00 a.m. inland valleys and at the coast wait until about lunchtime and highs come in at about 4:00 p.m. and your temperatures today will end up three to five degrees warmer than where we ended up yesterday. still have that dry heat going, though. 80 degrees from the south bay and 67 in san francisco and getting into that all-important holiday weekend and temperatures are going to climb and when we're talking about 88 degrees in the south bay, that will translate towards the mid-90s in the hottest cities across the bay area, for instance, gilroy and livermore, dublin and we're watching for the 90s. on sunday, but look at what happens as we take you into memorial day. maybe you have the day off and

i just got word from chp that they closed the slow end "for cleanup" five to ten minutes. that is the only lane they're closing for the cleanup and scattered away from lanes. let you know if one lane was enough to complete the rest of the cleanup. jammed from 580 through pleasanton and sunol. option for a reroute out of the tri-valley and castro valley no slowing on the grade yet. and an earlier crash there and that is cleared from the roadway and no major issues and more traffic for southbound 80 so keep that in mind as folks try to avoid sunol. south bay starts to build and 87 traditional and just gently builds for the south bay. your rails and roads we're looking at the mass transit systems and muni.
