police tell us his body was found face down partially on the side of the road and partially in the road itself. there are marks nearby, possible skid marks indicating maybe that this man was hit and that the driver didn't stop. the reason why they're not 100% on this is for a couple reasons. those marks could be random marks that were from a prior incident and also waiting for the coroner to come here. the coroner has not turned the body over to take a look to see what kind of injuries this person has. when the officers arrived, this person was unkaupconscious and breathing. there were visible injuries, but, again, not sure if those are consistent with a hit and run or something else. the bottom line, this is a suspicious death and that's why the homicide unit is out here trying to figure out exactly what happened to this man, again, found around 1:20 this morning. the man does have an i.d. on him and trying to follow up if that i.d. is, of course, him. they describe him as hispanic, a man in his 30s. again, suspicious death here and

lockdown mode after police sent out this tweet with the picture of the alleged shooter on twitter. they're dressed head to foot in camo. two rifles draped over his body carrying a backpack. neighbors reported seeing him climb through his backyards and driveways. >> three officers were shot and killed. two other officers were also injured, but their life is not taken. >> see how emotional it is for these officers to talk about. that officer had to excuse himself from the press conference, he could no longer talk about it. this kind of violence unheard of in this quiet southeastern city. 300 miles northeast of maine in the u.s. shootings of this nature, once again, very rare. the mayor is offering his condolences to the families of the officers. >> this is a terrible loss and a tragedy for the families and for

many people are leaving the company today, some have already retired and less for other positions and the report will be painful and have a detailed chronology of the last 10 to 12 years and why gm did not act sooner before millions of cars had to be recalled and 13 people were killed. but critics, they're not satisfied by this internal investigation done, by the way, by gm's own attorney, an attorney that represented the company before. there are other investigations going on, criminal investigat n investigations and state investigations. federal grand jury and congress is still looking into this and mary barra back here at some point and this time more forthcoming, we're told, in her answers. >> well, the american people want to know, yet alone the families who lost loved ones, too, tracie. thank you very much. and new concerns this morning for drivers who use bay area bridges. a new seismic joint on the carquinez bridge is showing

signs of wear and tear. that type of joint is similar to the joint on the new span of the bay bridge, that's a bit disconcerting. christie, these joints are supposed to last at least 20 years, right? >> good morning to you, sam. this problem we are talking about popped up after less than ten years of use, heavy use by cars and trucks. the seismic expansion joint is cracking on the carquinez bridge through the vallejo side. we drove the bridge westbound this morning, the new side. the problem area is in the slow lane, which sees heavy use by big rigs and an inspection recently revealed cracking under the joint system that is designed to help keep the bridge together in a quake. caltrans will go ahead and replace 15 of them at a cost of $1 million. that according to "chronicle" this morning. the eastern span of the new bay bridge has a dozen joints that are kind of similar that cal

trans says they'll go ahead and inspect, as well. they don't anticipate any issues there and also did go ahead and check the benicia bridge, as well. they found no issues there. reporting live near the carquinez bridge, christie smith, "today in the bay." >> thank you very much, christie, appreciate that. in the meantime, muni appears to be back on track. less than an hour ago muni spokesperson says all trains and buses will be running like normal. cable cars will also be in service. this after three days of sickouts by muni drivers. service will not be affected. recently we were told we have a friend in the weather business, not a fair weather friend. you are that friend. you have good news for us. >> good news. happy to be the bearer of good news. i get to do the weather in the bay area. 335 days i get to be the good news and those microclimates are the reason why. always a give and take when it's cool at the coast you head
