things fairly light but it is friday. >> a live look at san jose, good morning to you south bay. it's friday, april 10th. this is "today in the bay." well good morning, everyone. thanks for joining us. i'm scott mcgrew. >> i'm kris sanchez. laura and sam are off this morning. new this morning officers in the east bay are looking for a man who crashed his car during a chase. after the crash, officers say he abandoned the child and other person trapped in the car. "today in the bay's" stephanie chuang is live in hayward. do we know how the baby or child is doing this morning? >> reporter: yes, good morning to you, kris. the good news is remarkably, the woman in her 20s and this child only suffered minor injuries. you'll see the aftermath of this crash in just a little bit. that's the good news. i just got off the phone with chp. the new detail this is morning we're just a few blocks from

where two chp officers made the initial stop for vehicle registration and someone throwing a cigarette out of the car. the car took off and ended up crashing here just after roost road, this stretch is still closed where pg&e is on scene working to restore power. what the actual crash happening just down the road from here, but check out the aftermath of all this. the black sedan it looks like with the rear end mangles and torn apart, the front bumper is destroyed. the door is ripped off. the chp says the two officers didn't have time to engage in a pursuit. the crash happened just seconds later here on tennison. the officer stayed on the scene instead of going after the driver in order to help get the woman in her 20s and the child we understand is under 10 years old out of the car. the kid was in some sort of booster seat. they are at a local hospital for minor injuries. the male driver still outstanding but the chp working on tracking him down. it is unclear at this point what the relationship is, if this is two parents and their child, but

pg&e is repairing again the two power poles knocked down. at last check pg&e says there are 121 customers without power at this point, but they are working on it right now. there's one pole completely down and one that's kind of leaning. pg&e estimates it will be around 9:00 when this is all cleared and the power is restored. again this is between roost road and huntwood, but when you look at the video pretty amazing, just minor injuries suffered this morning. live in hayward, stephanie chuang, "today in the bay." >> so fortunate the child was in a booster seat because that makes the seat belt work the way it's supposed to, hopefully that's the reason why. thank you. oh, he's over, he's over! go, go, go! >> a terrifying moment on video from powerful tornadoes touching down in northern illinois. winds near the tornado so strong it flipped this truck. no word on the condition of the driver. the storms caused at least one

death and there's at least one more person unaccounted for. the tornadoes in this video touched down in tiny fayerdale, the population 200. most of the town is said to simply be gone. at least seven people were hurt. the family of a motorcyclist who was hit, rather killed in a hit-and-run crash is asking for your help. police say larry pack hit a concrete barrier on the connector ramp from southbound 101 to eastbound 92 in san jose last week. witnesses say a dark colored suv or jeep stopped briefly at the scene, and then took off again. police say that car may have been a factor in the crash and it may have front end damage. happening today, vice president joe biden will be at pg&e center in oakland. he'll be focusing on job training and the development of the workforce. "today in the bay's" bob redell is also in oakland. good morning to you, bob. >> reporter: good morning to you, scott. the pg&e center here in oakland just off 880 runs the kind of

degrees, not a bad beach day there, and look at your water temperature, very, very mild out there, 57 degrees in the water, 10 degrees warmer on the sand. 67 for half moon bay, down in santa cruz this is where we're seeing the warmest ocean water, look at this, 59 degrees out there. almost 60 degrees in the water. this has something to do of course with that mild el nino taking place. i like to look at all the climatological data and next year is actually looking very promising for a strong development of an el nino and for us that could translate to a lot of rain as we head throughout our next rainy season. this one has actually been pretty good to us as well. we have another round of light showers in the forecast. we need the snowpack is what we really need so we're going to examine the conditions and what could occur as we head throughout next week, tracking another system towards the 20th, as we head throughout the morning together i like to keep you up to date with what's going on when it comes to the drought, on the forefronts of a lot of

people's minds, including anthony slaughter. he is our weekend morning meteorologist. >> i'm all on that el nino. i saw that post yesterday on twitter, that would mean great news for us as we move towards next year. let's focus in on the traffic. i want to show you what's happening outside in dublin, where we have traffic starting to build but no major concerns coming through this freeway. looking pretty good especially for friday, lots of grown on the map from livermore, dublin, toward hayward. moving north we show you the antioch drive, we have a stall just before concord and you get past that and things are starting to slow on 4 approaching highway or right at the 80 and 4 connector, there was a stall on the westbound side. not really causing any problems. as we get down towards fremont, this is where i'm starting to see some big time slowing because as we told you earlier, a car lost its tire so the debris in the road and also the stall there. you can see the red tick marks denoting stop and go approaching this location. let's show you, i'll turn the camera so you can see for

yourself. there is the stall just ahead, you can see the backup continues and now everybody really starting to hit those brake lights. again, right at mission boulevard 880 southbound where we had that stall causing the backup. guys, back to you. >> thank you very much, anthony. there is also a very important traffic alert van ness avenue is closed in both directions between now and sunday. only commuter buses will be allowed through. california pacific medical center is building a new camp us right there at that spot. this weekend workers are constructing a pedestrian tunnel. the street will reopen before midnight on sunday but van ness is crazy busy all the time so you have to make a detour. it is 5:40 right now and a possible new candidate for the race for president. we're live in washington with the details next. plus an internal investigation under way after southern california deputies caught on camera punching and kicking a suspect. what the sheriff thinks about all this. and looking live at downtown san jose this morning, things

"today in the bay's" trausie potts live in washington to tell us what the insiders are saying inside the belt way. good morning to you. >> good morning. the insiders are saying this is probably going to happen sunday and probably on social media first. they're trying to crash an image of not so much the big campaign rally that we've seen oftentimes in the past with democrats kicking off their rallies among thousands of people but something a little more intimate showing hillary clinton with people, so we may get the

official word first via twitter. she's been pretty active there and according to our sources it's off to iowa, which is the first caucus date of course, and an area where we've already seen a lot of candidates, and potential candidates, people who called this the worst kept secret in washington the fact that she's running. she's rented office space in brooklyn, apparently where her headquarters is going to be. there are numerous reports she's been siphoning off people in the ready for hillary pack, the superpack to work on her official campaign. they've been building a ground game especially in places like iowa, where if you recall last election she came in third and some of the recent polls are showing even though she is a front-runner for both the democrats and the republicans, rand paul, who also just announced, is also running pretty close to her, so it will be an interesting campaign for the democrats we believe it will kick off sunday, that's what sources are telling us. >> i know you'll enjoy the whole season. tracie potts, thank you very much. new details on a wild

kidnapping car chase and shooting that left a census bureau guard dead yesterday. authorities identified the gunman as lawrence bunkner, suspected of kidnapping his own wife in washington, d.c., then headed to the census bureau in suburban maryland where he shot and killed a guard. after a high-speed chase police cornered the gunman, he was shot and injured in a gun battle that also injured an officer. >> i thought somebody was shooting a movie at first, i said no, this ain't a movie, this is real life. so i said okay, let me duck down. >> the kidnapped woman was not hurt but police are calling this a domestic dispute incident and they say it was not terror related. it is a somber day in texas, more than five years after the terror shooting rampage in ft. hood, those who were wounded or killed in the attack will receive a purple heart. 13 people were killed, another 32 wounded in the deadliest attack on a u.s. military installation in history. the gunman is now on death row.

get your cameras ready, president obama and cuban president raul castro will meet today, maybe even share a handshake. president obama is in panama for the summit of the americas, and he's expected to encounter castro and this will mark an historic moment as the u.s. and cuba try to restore ties. the two have no formal meetings scheduled but they are expected to cross paths and i'm sure it will be carefully choreographed. some alaska airlines passengers are relieved to be in san jose, though they did arrive hours late. according to flight aware, flight 336 arrived at san jose just before 1:30 this morning. the flight initially left seattle at 8:50 last night but it hit a bird. the pilots turned around out of abundance of caution. 112 passengers put on another plane and arrived in san jose safely. no word on the bird, but i'm thinking it's probably not good. >> i'm thinking it's a goner.

meteorologist christina loren is here, and not surprisingly that was not a weather event. >> yes. no, definitely not surprising but i can tell you make sure you have extra time planned in case something happens. you never know when you fly. good three to five-hour window. 5:47. if you're watching a flight headed out of town why would you leave this weekend? it's going to be beautiful out there. we have warm spring conditions coming your way as we get into this afternoon. what a beautiful day ahead, with temps in the 70s and everything will change as we head into your weekend, and this sunday. so i want to start with what's going on for this weekend in the south bay, 72 degrees for tomorrow, similar to today, just a touch warmer, 71 for your peninsula cities. 67 in san francisco, and 69 degrees on the east shore. so we're expecting a little bit of patchy morning drizzle and then afternoon clouds from time to time. we will see the intervals of clouds and sun by sunday, but look at your temperatures, it's going to get nice and warm and

comfortable on sunday, 79 degrees is the high. then as we meet back here early next week, we are expecting some light shower activity, not going to interrupt that home opener at at&t park. conditions looking good for that. but by tuesday, 7:00 to 8:00 we have a chance for light precipitation, it's going to clear out as we get into your wednesday, and then looking good for a better chance on the 20th and the 21st of this month and i'm going to continually let you know about that chance because right now it looks like we could receive an inch of rain in some cities, if everything stays organized. so we've got a pretty good handle on that forecast. for now we'll keep you updated. right now a check of your drive with anthony slaughter. >> the fremont stall, the chp report said all lanes are open but it does not seem as though all lanes are open. 880 southbound at mission boulevard really slow because of a stall, a car lost its tire so the debris in the roadway and of course the stall out there as

well. let's switch over to the maps, this is coming towards just past the richmond bridge, there was an stent and now a sig alert issued for 580 westbound. all lanes are closed headed toward san quentin. avoid the richmond bridge this morning headed into the north bay because all lanes are closed here. as we get outside and show you the bay bridge toll plaza, yep, no big surprise here, the metering lights are on and traffic is starting to back up just a bit. guys back to you. >> thank you very much anthony. another weekend closure, this one in fremont, work continues on the b.a.r.t. warm springs extension. the area at south grimmer and warm springs boulevard will be closed for a little more than 48 hours or so, and that closure starts at 10:00 tonight. a follow-up from news we brought you thursday, some of the smart parking meters in san jose turning out not to be very smart. city leaders say the meters on st. james street have been resetting before their time is

expired. that's causing some drivers to be wrongly ticketed. officials say vibrations from large trucks on the street are causing that reset, but they think they solved it. they turned the reset feature off. a follow-up this morning, pg&e will pay $1.6 billion for its part in the deadly san bruno gas line explosion. the blast killed eight people and destroyed 38 homes in 2010. the utility responded saying it will do what it takes to make sure thisser in happens again. pg&e does not plan to appeal that penalty decision. an internal investigation is also under way after a disturbing video of an arrest in san bernardino county. this happened yesterday when a man tried to get away from police in a car, and then tried to escape on a horse. chopper video shot by our sister station in los angeles shows that man falling off the horse, he's on the ground and then deputies hit him with a stun gun then they start punching him and

kicking him in the head. the suspect's girlfriend says that use of force was unnecessary. >> this guy comes out of nowhere and he feels it's necessary, i might as well get my kicks in, too, i don't understand why, why is something like that necessary? >> can certainly understand the concern in the community based on what they saw in the video. i'm disturbed by what i see in the video. look, i don't need to jump to conclusions at this point until we do a complete and thorough investigation and as i indicated if our deputy sheriffs did something wrong they'll be put off work and dealt with appropriately in accordance with the law as well as our department policy. >> the suspect is now in the hospital with unknown injuries. three deputies were also injured in that chase. we may get some answers today, the recent allegations against the san francisco sheriff's department. one issue, accusations from public defenders office that the deputies forced inmates to fight each other gladiator style and the officers would bet on the battles. another recent black eye, the

escape of a detainee taking out the trash at the halls of justice. the sheriff will present the findings from an internal review and announce changes in that department. two san jose police, and in her final report the department's top watch dog says the department operates under a cloud of racial bias and needs more transparency. the independent police auditorish eyed her final annual report before she retires in july. according to "the mercury news" she is urging the department to expand its racial accountability especially in how it responds to complaints of racial bias by officers. administrators for the troubled heald college are rallying to save their schools. it's owned by the for-profit company corinthian colleges. state attorney general harris suing corinthian accusing it of deceiving low income recruits

and leaving them deeply in debt. kriptian schools are facing eminent closure due to financial and legal trouble. the forecast for the weekend is beautiful but you may not care because now you can get "star wars" on your ipad. >> don't make me cross eyed he says. "star wars" available in digital hd. you can download it for any of your devices as of this morning. we checked amazon this morning and you can get the whole digital movie collection including all six of the movies for 90 bucks. that collection is expected to include a number of bonus features as well. well, keep an eye on shares of apple this morning. the much anticipated apple watch went on sale on apple's website overnight. most of those models already sold out. delivery dates for the new orders are june or later. if you're still on the fence, you can check out the watch at apple stores, but you cannot buy it at apple stores.

the watch starts at $349. apple reportedly spent $38 million on its tv ad campaign for the watch since it first debuted or was unveiled last month, a little less than it spent on the iphone 6 advertisements over the past six months. amazon gets the green light again from the faa to test drones to deliver packages. the government approved amazon's prototype drone last month. the company said the process took so long the device, the drone is already obsolete. amazon wants to use drones to deliver items within ten miles of its warehouses, which would require them to fly autonomously, using sensors to avoid collision with other aircraft. well, meteorologist christina loren has been watching a forecast that started with rain on monday and ending with sunshine today. >> yes, and throughout the weekend as well. good morning to you, kris and scott,er at home. temperatures mostly in the 40s and 50s. we are on our way to the low 70s just about everywhere, with the

exclusion of the immediate coast and the inner bay. 66 in san francisco, 72 in the north bay. right around 74 degrees for us here in the south bay. also expecting that for the tri valley. we always like to keep you up to date with what's going on. pretty cool, cardinalpalooza at stanford. they'll have games out there, tennis, football, track and field, softball, somy ball, even water polo and all free. you have opportunities as well to meet student athletes after each event. this is also happening nbc a proud sponsor of the 48th annual cherry blossom festival in san francisco. temperatures are going to be comfortable for both saturday and sunday, and that is always a good time. let's check on your drive, see if that sig alert is still an issue. here's anthony. >> unfortunately it is. making your way over the richmond bridge in the next hour or so, keep in mind it is closed. we're talking about westbound lanes where there was a car fire, a big rig actually caught on fire on the bridge, and it's right before san quentin so all

westbound lanes are closed. eastbound lanes are closed as well now. they are actually diverting traffic off of san quentin there just to keep folks away from the area. if you're using the richmond bridge this morning, i would say avoid it at all costs over the next hour sore. all westbound lanes are closed and eastbound lanes as well. back to you guys. >> thanks, anthony. one of america's biggest music festivals is breaking new ground. for the first time in history of coachella it will be broadcast on the radio and it all starts today on sirius xm channel alt nation. among the performers lined up for the festival, ac/dc, drake, florence and the machine and turn the clock back a little bit to steeley tan. the warriors set a franchise record for the most wins and now the team's best player setting his own record. >> seth curry scored 40 points in last night's win over the portland trailblazers, but the real headline here is that he drained eight three-pointers, breaking his own nba single

season record for three-pointers. he now has 278 for the season. warriors win 116-105 and there are three games left before the playoff. i think i hit eight in my entire high school career. eight three-pointers in the entire four years. >> that's amazing. >> no, four years? >> more than i did. 5:57. a surprise on "press here." coming up. and a dramatic chase and dramatic crash overnight. child left in the car trapped as the driver takes off. we're live on the scene with the latest. oh! he's over, he's over! >> go, go, go! >> plus a tornado cause a big rig to tip over and it is all caught on camera. the latest on the certain for people still missing. ory. it's your all-access binge-watching pass to tv's hottest shows,
