harder for the santa clara county fire department to fight. that's right, you have the firefighters up there on the roof. i can't tell if they've started ventilating yet. they've definitely been flushing the area with water. part of the challenge earlier is if you look down to the left, there's a line meter there, and that was fuelling a lot of the fire, pge was able to get that gas meter shut off, the battalion chief informed me they are going to have to stay, they being pge, will have to dig into the street so they can access the main gas line. they want to shut that off as well to be on the safe side. they don't know what damage was done to the august zil ri line that was sent to the restaurant. . appears that the front of the restaurant is not what's on fire. it looks like it's the back of the restaurant. a building that's attached to the front of the restaurant. this started around 4:20 this morning, someone walking by saw the flames, called 911. fortunately the station is just a block or two away.

they were here on the scene quickly. you mentioned the one firefighter was hurt. the chief terms us that he tripped over a hose line while fighting this fire. either looked like the rest are possibly his ribs were hurt. he's been treated on the scene and as far as i can tell, i don't know, he might have been transported, but he is expected to be okay. here you can see the santa clara county firefighters are trying to access where you can see that flame is now popping up throw through the roof. eernt to vent it so they can get more water in there or put water on it and put it out. i'm not sure if that's exactly, it looks like, because of the color of flame, it looks like, maybe it, might be another gas line. it's hard for me to tell, and frankly i don't know what i'm talk abouting when it comes to fire science, basened on the facts -- based on the fact that the color is odd. i'm not sure what that is burning. again, two-alarm fire here at manrica restaurant in las gatos.

one firefighter freet treated for minor injury. two alarm fire is, they don't know what the cause is. this is going to be the first priority. reporting live here, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> you admitted this is not necessarily, you don't know everything, it appears they don't have the gas off. pge will have to dig to turn off the gas. >> reporter: they said they had the gas lines in the building off. the issue is the main line. they want to get the line underneath the street off. they're not saying that that's burning right now. the gas of the building is shut off, i was just surmising that, maybe there was another gas line, again, i don't know. >> clearly a restaurant, one wait or the other, is vaunt on fire. bob re vel, we're going to check -- redell, thank you very much. breaking news in san francisco where police are on the scene of a deadly shooting just a few blocks away from the cow palace. officers are collecting evidence near the intersection of brookdale and blithesdale

battalion chief, they just got into the building, what are they finding? >> reporter: within the past 30 mirns they got into the building. this is the kitchen portion of the manresa restaurant. if you're not familiar, it's a very popular restaurant, highly rated as you mentioned, two michelin stars and they made enindustry so they can get in there and do knock down on the ceiling. the idea is to ventilate this and it seems like they've been successful because we're not seeing the flames coming out of the roof. you can see the roof, what's left of it. it gives you an extent of how big the fire was. we're not seeing the flames, not suggesting they're aren't flamed in, but we're not seeing them as dramatic as earlier. we're seeing white smoke which means the fire department is.cc a good job of pufting the fire out. now this fire came in, by a call to 911 from someone walking by, it was around 4:00 this morning. the fire department tells us

just have a station 100 yards away. they were here on the scene very quickly. and when they arrived on the scene, they realized immediately they were going to need back-up. they called far second alarm. when they arrived on the scene, what they saw was a massive fire on the backside. on the oaks tier your of the building, apparently at gas meter. and here's what the chief recently had to say about that. >> the visually impressive part at the beginning was the fact that the gas meter was free burning. a second alarm was called, we're going need more help. our hazmat unit came to secure the gas meter, but as the heat rises and it's right under the eve of the building, as you can see behind me, gas rose was on fire, heated up into the attic and started a fire in the attic. >> reporter: what the santa clara county fire department is not sure about is whether the gas meter was the source or was there another source that spread to the gas meter. it's too early to make that decision. they have gotten the gas line shut off.

pge is out here to make sure if they were needed that they could come in and assist, right now, that gas line is shut off. you have about 35 firefighter ts out here. you mention one firefighter was hurt. he was hurt when he tripped on some debris early on in the fire fight. he was taken to the hospital, possibly with a rib injury, but he's expected to be okay. unfortunately for the manresa, the back portion where the kich season located, severely damaged, the front portion of the restaurant where we believe the dining area is, we're not sure if there's any damage to that section, see seems from our point of view at least the flames are contained at the backside. not sure about smoke and water daniel to the front side if any at all. again, to alarm fire at the manresa restaurant here in downtown. the fire department, especially within the last 30 minutes made tremendous progress as far as knocking down that flame here. the one firefighter taken to the hospital. that person's going to be okay.

half hour. one man who says he knows the victim described him as a devoted father in his 20s. >> he's a good, young man. and he was always picking up his children on time, every day after school, and that's how i knew him down in the business, down by the teen center, he would pick his kids up. he always helped us set up equipments and break down chairs. he would always help me whenever i needed him. >> reporter: and back here live, you see again an active investigation right now. it actually turned quite emotional as we heard someone who appears to be the victim's girlfriend, or even mother of his children, she was crying, very emotional, and i said mother, she was talking about two children apparently ages three and five that this man has left behind. other family members out here getting spoken to by homicide investigators. so again, very active right now. larry jones who you just heard

administration, emergency funds that they want to put this, but it's not clear whether or not that's something that lawmakers want to do. some say that we don't need more money to solve this problem. the other thing they're looking at are a couple of bills that are on the table, one that would strengthen penalties for smugglers who are bringing people across the border. the other would strengthen the border itself. 6,000 more border agents down at the border between mexico. plus, more fencing and more lights and more cameras, but no coast to all of that. president obama headed to texas for fund raisers this -- fundraisers this week, but no word whether he'll visit the border. >> interesting, thanks tracy. affordable care act under fire this morning. this time from a lawsuit brought by a wisconsin senator. senator ron johnson challenging the provision forcing congressional members to obtain government subsidized health insurance through small business exchanges. he says as the government

appearance, he's pretty happy to be going from one of the worst teams in baseball to the best one. fans certainly happy to have him, ian fn they're not sure about his name, this is one of the signs. and a few nfl fans went with shark which happens to be his nickname. samardzija started the game getting his first win as a member of the a's. and it's called jeff, i think might be the thing. >> shark, shark, shark. we need to come up with a clever nickname for mike inouye. >> i also have trouble with the last name. the bay bridge toll plaza, metering lights are on, not bad at the maize. look at the map, smooth drive in the vicinity, little slowing from the top of your screen and past the oaklandd coliseum wher we just talked about that. the bay starts tonight, south 680 towards the canyon road. slow down in the commute direction. northbound, reports of three lanes blocked. haven't seen slowing though.
