trend. a loser look at the temperatures coming up. mike has word of a traffic break. >> i have, so i thought i would pass it on since that's my job here. we're looking at the speed sensors and the bay looks great. taking you to the bay bridge. getting to the bay bridge from the east bay is not a problem. easy drive. let me show you the span because getting out of the city onto the lower deck, reports of a traffic break. they're removing cones from a construction zone, but we can't see any of the activity because of the low clouds. the cones pick up and the low clouds, that's the issue between san francisco and oakland. back to you. >> thank you very much, mike. >> back to that breaking news we're following in san francisco where a neighborhood was on lockdown overnight after a home invasion turned into a police shooting. within the last half hour, we learned police called off the search for several suspects in the bay view neighborhood. today in the bay's pete suratos is live with what police are telling us about that investigation and why, pete, they say that the public at large may not be at risk at this point. >> yeah, good morning to you.
5:01 am
as you can see behind me, the crime tape has been taken down in the bay view district. we know at least one suspect has been detained but the ground search for the other suspects has been called off. let's show you some video from the scene when it took place. according to san francisco police in that media briefing, they tell us it took place at 11:00 p.m. on the 2100 block of quesada avenue just a few blocks east of where we're standing. we're told they perimetered off that area. that's when several suspects exiting through the back of the home, jumping over fences and even through back yards in the area trying to get away. at that point, that's when one of the suspects shoots at the officers and an officer returns fire. there were no injuries to report to either party, but police say it was a close call. >> no suspects were shot. sorry if i didn't make that clear. at this time, there are no known injuries, luckily, as a result of the exchange of gunfire.
5:02 am
from what i hear, though, it was very harrowing. very, very close call for the officers that were in the back yard. >> as i mentioned, one suspect has been detained, but police say this appears to be a targeted home invasion, and they're pretty sure the suspects got out of the area. that's one of the reasons why they called off at at least the ground search. they're still looking for the suspects. if you have information to help out with the case, contact afpd. live in san francisco, pete suratos, today in the bay. >> thank you, pete. >> all right, let's take you across the world right now. happening at this moment, as you see, president trump is speaking there. an address before the israeli government and country. you saw rex tillerson and his wife melania in the first row. president trump right now mixing some diplomacy with a bit of tourism on this first trip abroad. this is the second stop on president trump's first foreign trip. jay gray joining us live from

5:13 am
prices to spike. prices at the pump recently rose about a half a cent for a gallon of regular, but expect it to go much higher than that as the cost of crude oil is jumping. a look at some of the local gas prices in the bay area. san jose averages $3.16 a gallon. in oakland, $3.14. lastly, in san francisco, no surprise here, the most expensive of the group. average price of a gallon of regular gas set you back $3.23 per gallon. well, the wait is over. on wednesday, san francisco's famous alamo square is opening to the public again after a bit of a $5 million remake. >> tough to get pictures in that time. the park isn't the only thing in the neighborhood making headlines. one of the iconic painted ladies across the street from the square has taken a big step into the future. original painted lady built in 1892 is now supplying its own power. solar panels were added allowing the historic home to produce 90% of its own electricity.

sea lions in case you haven't seen this video. very scary moments caught on camera near vancouver. a little girl sits down, maybe getting a little too close, and the sea lion just yanks her into the water. a man then jumps into the water immediately after to help the girl out. manages to get her out. we don't know if she's hurt because her family whisked her away. experts say though it happened far from the bay area, it is a reminder that sea lions are powerful and they're animals, and they need their space. >> these are animals that are hunters. they're sometimes as may be the case here, attracted into wharfs or harbors where there are either fishing communities or fish markets. and sometimes unfortunately, are fed by the public. >> again, the little girl made it off safely. took off with her parents. the gentleman who jumped in to help her, it appears he was
