good morning. >> reporter: good morning, laura. good morning, sam. police say that they don't have a suspect description to release just yet, but the woman who was shot in the neck last night was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. and that wrong place was the may hong restaurant at center and tully road in san jose's little saigon neighborhood. police say the woman was having dinner just before 9:00 when someone took aim at the restaurant from the parking lot, though not directly at the woman. >> the restaurant had curtains on it. we believe that the shooter was possibly shooting at the restaurant, but didn't really have a target in mind. one of the rounds struck a patron while she was eating. >> reporter: that woman was struck in the neck. she was transported to the hospital and is in stable condition this morning. witnesses told police that the suspect fled the parking lot on foot before police arrived, and police have not again released a suspect description at this

point. it's worrisome in that it's random, but also because it's random, you can probably walk around in that area and be rrt. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." a record-breaking settlement has been awarded to the family of an oakland man who died in the county jail. martin harrison died in 2010 after deputies stunned him with tasers during a confrontation. he was in the midst of alcohol withdrawal at the time. the $8.3 million settlement will be paid by the county and its jail medical services provider. two men on a neighborhood watch patrol are facing chargers this morning after an attack on a newspaper delivery driver. the men on volunteer patrol con fronted the driver early yesterday morning in santa rosa. they thought he was connected to a rash of thefts. police say the men chased and attacked the delivery driver. police say there's no indication the delivery man was connected with theft in the area. okay, laura, not everybody

responds to warnings the exact same way. that is why one bay area city decided to inject a little bit of humor into its traffic hoping to create some safer drivers in the process. >> it actually catches your eye. stephanie chuang joins us live from heyward this morning. the city is using these unusual signs to really grab people's attention.ayward this morning. the city is using these unusual signs to really grab people's attention. in a new way. >> reporter: that's right. good morning to you both, laura and sam. we counted eight of them as you go up and down the hill. take a look at this one here, one of these creative signs that says 30, it's a speed limit, not a suggestion. there are plenty of other ones as you drive along here. you get hit with two near the top of the hill. on hayward boulevard, downhill, use eyes, brakes, brain, with illustrations of each. below that sign is another one. 35, again, it's a speed him, not a suggestion. the entrance of the campus is perhaps a more creative one

geared towards pedestrians. that one reads heads up, cross the street, then update facebook. the signs were installed last month. the city spokesman says the goal is to maybe have the rumor result in a double-take, get people to pay attention more than to the usual signage. speeding is one of the top concerns for people who live here in hayward. these signs cost about $200 each. it remains to be seen how effective they are, but certainly i think catches people's eyes so far. live in hayward, stephanie chuang, "today in the bay." >> as you were observing, a lot to read on those signs. >> i mean, they're catchy, but a little wordy. all right, what words can describe this beautiful vista this morning? a nice start to our morning. >> yes. let's jump start things, shall we? to do that, we bring in our ray of energy, christina this morning. how are you? >> i'm doing great. in fact, i wanted to take a live

check. i kid you. he definitely wanted his privacy. he's pledged to put that money into a foundation that would help end childhood hunger. the machines don't start selling the tickets until around 6:00 this morning, but we expect, as we've seen in years past with these lucky read tellers, that there will be a lot of people coming here. you might be familiar with cavanaugh liquors in san lorenzo. they have sold five winning tickets over the years. we expect to see quite a long line. the odds are only one in 175 million. >> don't crush our dreams. >> reporter: us in the newsroom have put together a little pot here. 60, $70 here. if you guys want, i can save us some money. we can probably get about 20

investigators are looking at other factors that may have contributed to the crash. all-new this morning, one in five pilots for one major airline could not pass a p proficiency test. the news comes exactly one week after 42 people were killed in a crash linked to engine trouble. brian williams has been suspended for six months. the suspension is without pay, effective immediately. williams is the subject of an internal review after questions surfaced about the accuracy of a story he told about an iraq war assignment in 2003. in a piece that aired on "nightly news" last week, williams claimed a military helicopter he was riding in took on enemy fire. williams has since said he made a mistake in recalling the incident and has apologized.

in a statement, the ceo and president of nbc universal steve burke said, "by his actions, brian has jeopardized the trust of millions of americans place in nbc news. his actions are inexcusable, and this suspension is severe and inappropriate. he deserves a second chance and we are rooting for him. brian has shared his deep remorse with me and he is committed to winning back everyone's trust." lester holt will continue to substitute anchor nbc nightly news in the interim. the secret ingredient that one water treatment plant is using to clean up its sewage.
