alternate -- other station getting on to the bart tracks. and we have a problem for the ace train. ace train number one, 20-minute delay out of stockton because of some sort of signaling problems. these are unrelated issues, different sets of tracks but another problem for the trains. the rest of your systems are moving well and your drive through the area should be okay. we're looking at the peninsula and east bay with no major delays but over here in burlingame, there's a small delay because of a crash southbound highway 101 around broadway south of sfo. slowing through the lanes. sounds like two lanes are affected right now. back to you. >> thank you very much, mike. 5:01. preparing for the worst. tensions at uc berkeley expected to come to a head after ann coulter's speech is safety due to safety concerns. >> her speech called off yesterday, but the protests are still on. today in the bay's bob redell

with what is expected. >> reporter: good morning, sam and laura. the university and the campus police are prepared for possible problems here on campus even though ann coulter is not scheduled to speak however she hinted she might show up at cal. more on that in a moment. at least one group in support of her is expected to rally later this afternoon at berkeley civic center problem with a possible march to the cal campus where colter was invited to speak by campus republicans but the university canceled her speech over safety concerns. they were worried there could be a repeat of the violence that erupted when milo yiannopoulos, a supporter of the so called alt-right tried to appear later this year. coulter appeared on fox news to express her disappointment about the people who invited her backing down. >> they ran away, they gave in and there was nothing i could

do. >> we're citizens, we have a first amendment right to be here. we come to berkeley because this is supposed to be the home of the renewal of freedom of speech in the state of california. >> our commitment to the first amendment is unwaivering and unshakable. so, too, is our commitment to the safety of our students. >> reporter: the university said they proposed an alternative date for coulter to speak, citing concerns of safety and threats of violence. in an e-mail to the associated press, coulter hinted at an impromptu appearance on campus writing "i have my flight so i thought i might stroll around the graveyard of the first amendment." reporting live at the cal campus, bob redell, today in the bay. different bay area campus, different topic as well, live pictures from stanford university where there's been another report of a sexual battery. campus police say a female staff member says a man grabbed her while she was drinking from a water fountain at the mitchell earth sciences building yesterday. police found the suspect but the

staff member declined to press charges. police say the suspect does not match a description of the suspect who groped two women earlier this month. the search for that person continues. a developing story right now. two construction workers recovering after what's being called a catastrophic equipment fail dwlure that happened at facebook headquarters in menlo park. kris sanchez joining us live there. how are the workers doing? >> reporter: we understand they were treated at the trauma center at stanford university and it's because they fell from 40 feet up, managed to catch somewhere halfway down and the fire chief says it's a miracle they didn't land all the way on the ground. take a look at the picture that we got from the construction site. you can see the three men in the picture looking up at the beams that the two-iron workers were on and harnessed to 40 feet up above the ground when for some

reason that beam failed, falling halfway down to the ground before catching and stopping abruptly. according to the menlo park fire chief, their fall was stopped by their safety harnesses before tae hit the ground. this is video of the construction scene where the work will stop until cal osha gets to the bottom of how this incident happened. we're looking into the builders' safety record level 10 construction based out of sunnyvale is the third largest contractor in the bay area. now this incident happened at the site of facebook building 21, the same construction company built facebook building 20 which level 10 claims was praised by ceo mark zuckerberg for being done ahead of schedule and under budget. we're still trying to get information from cal osha, from facebook and also from level 10, the contractor here. we're going to try to get that information and have that update at 6:30. in menlo park, kris sanchez,

today in the bay. 5:05 right now. we're learning about a new arrest of a cable car operator. 55-year-old david reyes is accused of allegedly stealing fares in san francisco. investigators say reyes was pocketing cash fares. last week, conductor albert williams of napa was arrested for allegedly doing the same thing. $32,000 in cash was found at williams' home even though he's only accused of stealing $900. the embezzlement investigation began two months ago at muni's request. we are learning new details about a robbery heist on board a bart train in the east bay. this as we are previewing an important meeting about safety and bart's board of directors tonight. thanks to surveillance cameras, investigators are identifying the mob of teenagers accused of beating and robbing teenager this is past weekend. as we reported, roughly 50 teenagers poured on to a train at the coliseum station last saturday night. bart says they robbed seven passengers and injured a couple others as well.

we learned surveillance video from inside the train has led police to some of the suspects. they're now in the process of arresting them. happening today, we may learn more about how contra costa voters feel about the proposed west county jail expansion. supervisors in february voted to move ahead with the project. the board is hoping to get state funding for a high security wing. richmond city leaders are opposed. a market research firm will present their results in a survey of voters. students in one north bay city will get a little extra sleep starting next year. board of directors in novato approved this week later start times at all of its schools. the first bell will ring at 8:00 a.m. for high schools, 8:20 for middle schoolers and 8:40 for elementary school student s the superintendent says it will give students extra time to sleep and be prepared to learn. new details on recovery efforts happening in the bay. the coast guard is trying to pull up a sunken barge a 112

foot freight barge that capsized almost three weeks ago near the bay bridge during stormy weather. crews working on rotating the barge upright on the sea floor. we're told that could take several weeks to finish. more signs that climate change is changing our ecology. the press democrat reporting it's causing moss animals found in the waters off the sonoma coast to die off. as organisms change their chemical structure when they disappear by dissolving as the water cools down. it could also happen to sea stars, sea urchins. it's 5:08, if you're getting ready to enjoy some of that wildlife, maybe for the land animals, we will see temperatures in the low 50s to start out in the north bay hitting the hiking trails around 10:00, it will be 69 degrees, you see how those temperatures warm up and by 2:00, it will be

very comfortable, nice, 72 degrees but it will be windy as we head into the evening. and if you will be hitting the links in spots like half moon bay along the coastline, we had the clouds and mist and drizzle. today it will be all clear but a cool start. at 7:00 we'll be at 52 degrees. as we head into the forecast for the weekend, it does warm up, we'll talk about that in three minutes. mike has another update for bart riders. >> this time good news. folks getting worried when we have a change in status but this goes back to green. the richmond station is open pg&e has restored power to the richmond station, they can have full service along the entire richmond line. ace train number one still has the delay because of a single issue outside of stockton. roadways looking good. we have the crash which should be clearing at 242, that's over there in concord and the rest of the bay moves well but i'm still tracking the crash off of broadway in burling game. back to you. >> thank you, mike. coming up, a we have a of mud engulfs a california

highway. the race to escape this flowing mud slide caught on camera. plus, san francisco has a new slogan to take on donald trump, it's always welcome. we'll take a look coming up in business next. what made two guys build race car engines in their own shop? what made them believe that a two-ton behemoth could compete in a track race? or that they could take on the elite in world motor racing, and win? we may never truly understand what drives mercedes-amg. but here's to another 50 years of it.

mercedes-amg. half a century of driving performance.

it's 5:12 on this thursday morning. we do have a few lingering clouds across parts of the south bay and peninsula. we're taking a live look outside at palo alto and it's a dry start. at 9:00 we'll be at 58 degrees.

as you get ready to head home from work, just enjoy the day outside. it will be 70 outside. in the forecast, go well above this. our normal high will talk about how warm it get this is weekend coming up in five minutes. and these travel times don't look like a problem but we have a delay just south of spo that involves the first two numbers up there, we're watching for what's going in burlingame. san francisco's tourism industry is worried about a cool summer. >> there's a few things going on here. part of it is that the moscone center is closed for renovation. that's closing conference traffic. scott mcgrew is also saying that will the president's policies are restricting travel, too. >> reporter: you're right, the industry is on edge. the san francisco travel association says it's going to launch a new advertising effort called "always welcome."

the organization tells the san francisco business times the ad campaign was developed to set san francisco apart and show that it's a different kind of place. united airlines has released an 11-point internal report on that violent removal of a passenger on a st. louis flight. some details we knew, for instance, it's upping the value of travel vouchers to as much as $10,000 and it won't call police if the situation isn't a crime. probably the biggest change, it's going to try to figure out what flights people are likely to give up seats on and what they're not. for instance, passengers on flights to small cities or the last flight of the day are less likely to give up their seats. the situation dr. dao was in was terrible but the ceo's reaction added to the controversy, you'll remember. oscar munoz first reacted like he hadn't even bothered to look at the video. our lester holt will talk to munoz just ahead on the "today"

show. >> primarily, if we start with the basic premises and all our policies and how we fly, putting our customer at the center of this, i think the policies will fan out and avoid issues like that. had we had in place those brv s before, the incident with dr. dao would never have happened. >> that's ahead on the "today" show at 7:00. all kinds of stories are popping up about airlines. we're hearing about a delta airlines passenger who claims he was kicked off a plane after he stood up to go to the bathroom while the plane was taxiing for takeoff despite instructions from the flight crew not to. other reports say the plane had been waiting on the ground for 30 minutes. either way, the plane taxied back to the gate and the man was removed. other news, amazon quietly released a new camera called the echo look. it's supposed to go in your bedroom to figure out if you like your new outfit. you can see yourself from behind -- that's difficult in a

mirror. you can post it to the internet. there's even software to tell you if you look good. now, pre- sumb now presumably this is an early attempt but amazon seems to have gotten better and better so we'll see. what do you think about it? >> how honest is it? >> it says yes, no. your butt doesn't look fat in that. now can we go? >> how do you break the news? you know, that outfit -- >> that's a good question. >> i know somebody who breaks it to me all the time. but that's okay appreciate it because then you know. >> i think you look lovely. >> thank you very much. in n out burger no longer happening in walnut creek. the developer withdrew his application citing too many concerns for neighbors. in n out were supposed to open in the heart of downtown, along with starbucks. many people were against it saying it would bring more traffic to a congested area. >> bummer for a lot of in n out

fans. a man is in jail for allegedly setting two fires at the trump hotel in las vegas. both were set last night, one on the pool deck level, the other on the 17th floor of the hotel. police say that toasters, towels and other materials were used to ignite the fire. one hotel security guard was injured. we don't at this point know the extent of the injuries. a wave of rock and dirt is blocking traffic in mendocino county. it happened yesterday. intense video a driver caught on her cell phone. it happened on highway 101 just north of the town of legas. construction workers closed the highway because of that unstable hillside. then all that happened. at one point, workers started running down the highway trying to warn people to just stay back. quite the cleanup will be happening there. >> good thing they caught in the time while someone wasn't driving by. that's always scaring going through those. >> it happens so quickly. >> and it's crazy to still see

the aftereffects of all that rain from the winter and even as it dries up it's still -- the impacts are still being felt around the bay area. as we get a look now starting out this morning finally it's dry and we don't have any mist or drizzle. it's not foggy. here's san jose and it's all dry and weather headlines show we'll start out at 55 this morning with a high today of 72 degrees. with those clearing skies we'll get warming temperatures but gusty winds. heading into the weekend we will be warming up. that's what everyone will be talking about. let me show you what it looks like outside. in oakland, 52 degrees. 46 in napa and santa cruz starts out the morning at 62 with highs later today heading up to 72 degrees in san jose while cupertino is at 70 degrees. very comfortable temperatures and antioch 74 degrees. and the peninsula will be cool along the coast at half moon bay

but then you head over on the other side of the hills and in belmont, 68 degrees, 64 in the mission district and north bay in novato up to 27 degrees. and we have a home game late morning -- early afternoon game today at at&t park for the giants so coming off of that game last night. and if you are heading to the game it will be very warm. a lot of sun. we'll start out at 60 degrees but it feels nicer throughout the day with temperatures reaching into the low 60s. the wind may be kicking up. wind speeds at 25 miles an hour into the evening. and the seven-day forecast shows that in san francisco we go from the mid-60s today to mid-70s by the weekend and then upper 70s early next week so with this dry weather we will be heating up and before you know it, it will feel like summer, 87 inland on wednesday. and mike, you're showing fewer

problems now on the roads? >> we always like to say fewer problems than the last time i had the report. now we have all the bart stations open after richmond got its power back so no delays reported. 45 trains on time. and the two trains on the ace line, ace 1 still has a 20-minute delay, that will likely stay that way through san jose, maybe picking up a few minutes but ace train number three is running on time, no delays for signal problems out of stockton. the rest of the roadways are moving well. that tiny build out of the altamont pass, but we're focusing on the peninsula, southbound 101, there was a clearing lane. we saw the speed sensors change from orange to green so we're back at speed but we'll look at our waze system because there was a delay there so as we look at waze we want to make a choice. you can make it as well. san francisco all the way down into san mateo, that purple route with the 280 reroute, that was a couple minutes faster but now we're back at 27 minutes for all the routes. 101 or 280.

you can make your choice wherever you're leaving this morning by going to your waze app, make your choice to choose our team, nbc bay area wazers. we can share that information back and forth along the community and i can use your reports on the air. we'll send it back to you. >> you can go your own waze. get it? >> it doesn't get old. go right back to the well. >> at least not with us. >> i respect it. coming up next, a prized possession snatched. what a bay area woman is desperately trying to find after her car was broken into and the surveillance video she's hoping will help her get it back. someone else's loan tarnishes her credit report and no one is taking action. i'm consumer investigators chris chmura. nbc bay area responds next. who are these people?

>> there is a chance police could solve the case. a private investigator has obtained video he says shows two people using perez's credit card after that break in. perez says she would pay a reward if an arrest was made. i hope they get it back. >> her heart is broken right now. nbc bay area responds to a pleasant hill woman who was told to pay off a loan that wasn't her loan. >> so she turned to our consumer team for help. chris chmura is here with another success story. >> christina thompson received an alert that her credit score dropped last may. after digging around, she found a delinquent loan on her credit report with a balance of $2,900 but christina said the account wasn't hers so she contacted the lender, net credit financial. they insisted the loan was christina's. she said she did everything she could think of to prove otherwise. she turned over her bank statements to show she never received funds from them. she even filed a police report but net credit financial didn't budge.

it even turned her over the a debt collector. and fees later pushed the balance up to $3,200. christina asked us to call net credit financial. we did and it removed the loan from her credit report. it also called off the debt collector. the company said it linked the error to fraudulent activity, not a mistake it made. it said? a statement that it is sorry that ms. thompson was targeted by these criminals. net credit takes seriously the responsibility to prevent, combat and investigate fraud. if someone demands you pay off a debt that isn't yours, off federal right to make them prove your obligation, start by sending them a letter. the number is 888-996-tips. log on to nbcbayarea.com/respond. >> thanks, chris. coming up, pretty wild video to show you. an overnight fire engulfed the

stop. >> we were told how serious this was and how we were told to not post anything on social media. >> as for the girls involved in the fight, the victim is home recovering and the other student was arrested for felony battery and could be expelled. new details on a story we first broke here on today in the bay. the search continues for the suspect involved in a violent beating near the san jose state campus. the fight was caught on surveillance video. we have it but i want to warn you the video could be disturbing. the brawl broke out about 1:30 yesterday morning outside a nearby jack-in-the-box. police say the victim was a woman in dark clothing, you can see there's several other women throwing punches. at one point the victim is thrown to the ground and kicked. no word on the victim's condition. >> you can see men there just standing around not intervening. and women. 5:34. developing in sacramento, authorities looking for the man who randomly attacked two women killing one of them with his bare hands. neighbors said the two women were on their daily walk

tiburon. we'll see the high temperatures in the tri-valley, looking at our pleasant on the camera, 73 degrees for today. 60s for san francisco. you're looking at that camera as the sun rises. we can see skies are clear as you get ready to head out. over the next few days, we keep the sunshine and temperatures warm. we'll talk more about that coming up in three minutes. mike has a crash in the east bay. >> that's right. we see some slowing there and the bay bridge toll plaza and typical spots for san jose and pinole, pleasant on tanpleasan . there was a crash that cleared to the shoulder and we see a build there. we still have about a 22-minute drive from there toward the bay bridge toll plaza. a little delay for ace train number one but number three is on time and we'll look along the peninsula.

mike traffic tease it's 5:41 on your thursday morning with clearing skies and the temperature trend for willow glen will be at 58 degrees at 9:00, many more people getting

up and out, a lot of sunshine throughout the day and quickly warming up, a lot of sun in this forecast and also the seven-day forecast. look at that coming up in five minutes. here's your predictable pattern for the tri-valley and the east bay. a little slow through pleasanton. a woman was discovered dangling from a crane in toronto, canada. it took two hours to get her down. she was arrested when she hit the ground. no word on what she was up to. if you're walking around in berkeley hill this is morning, look out for the pipes above.

4,400 feet of pipes will be replaced in the panoramic way. that's happening from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. the trump administration nowhere near giving up the fight to pull funding from sanctuary cities. despite the big legal blow on tuesday. that is when a u.s. district judge in san francisco blocked president trump's executive order. attorney general jeff sessions commented on that ruling last night. he didn't specifically mention an appeal but did say he is not ready to accept the ruling and vowed to keep fighting that case in court. live right now to the nation's capital and the clock most certainly ticking. lawmakers have until midnight friday to pass a spending bill and avoid a government shut down. there are some encouraging signs here to take away. we're hearing that lawmakers at the white house are nearing an agreement on a $1 trillion spending bill. this of course, comes after the

white house agreed not to withhold health care payments for lower income americans, those subsidies, that was one sticking point. another one, funding for the border wall. the house oversight committee is holding another hearing on the proposed wall on the mexican border. lawmakers are hoping to learn about the economic impact of the wall versus the security benefits gained. border patrol and immigration experts will be among those testifying. >> congress can talk about president trump's wall all it wants but it appears it's not going to fund it. >> one of many defeats for the president in the last week. >> reporter: really defeats and 180s. trump back when he was candidate said he had a number of priorities -- the wall, we're going to build that wall, he said. labelled china a currency manipulator, said he'd do that on the first day. ending the nuclear deal with iran, number one priority he said and throwing nafta in the trash. not only has he done none of those, he takes the opposite position on many of those. a short time ago the president tweeted he had a phone call with the leaders of mexico and canada and they convinced him not to
