6:02 am
called off the ground search for the others. we'll show you video from the scene from overnight, and according to police, this home invasion took place roughly around 11:00 p.m. and when they showed up, they perimetered off the area where we're standing and several suspects tried to get away through the back of the home, jumping over fences and into backyards. it's at this point one of the suspects shoots at officers and an officer returns fire. there are no injuries to report to either party, but police tell us it was a very 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. from what i hear, though, it was very harrowing. very, very close call for the officers that were in the backyard. >> police say this appears to be a targeted home invasion, and the reason they called off the search is they're pretty sure the suspects were able to get out of the area, but there's still a search for suspects on the ground. if you have any information to
6:03 am
help out with this case, contact police. we're live in san francisco, pete suratos, for today in the bay. >> all right, pete, thank you very much. that's what's happening here at home. we go abroad now. a live look from israel where president trump is continuing his first overseas tour since taking office. >> he traveled from saudi arabia to israel where he's mixing diplomacy with tourism. jay gray is live with what we can expect throughout the course of day. >> good morning. yeah, this is the second stop president trump's nine-day overseas tour. right now, he's behind these walls here around jerusalem's old city touring some of the historic holy sights there. he will meet with both israeli and palestinian leaders in his two days here. air force one on the ground in tel aviv. president trump greeted by benjamin netanyahu before making a brief chopper ride to jerusalem. 10,000 israeli officers will be
6:04 am
a part of the security detail as the president begins the second leg of his trip later this morning in jerusalem. the normally crowded old city will be locked down as mr. trump and first lady melania tour the church of the holy septalker. it will come between meetings between benjamin netanyahu and the president ritalin. president trump's first overseas trip began in saudi arabia. draped in modern ceremonies and traditional celebration, but defined by his sunday address to the leaders of more than 50 muslim nations across the region, urging them to unite in the global fight against terror. >> drive them out of your holy land and drive them out of this earth. >> the president stepping back from the rhetoric of his campaign where he lashed out against islam. instead offering to be a partner in what he calls not a fight between religions but a battle between good and evil. >> and that visit, we reached
6:05 am
historic agreements to pursue greater and greater cooperation in the fight against terrorism and its evil ideology. >> the fight against terror, one of the issues that president trump is expected to discuss during his time in israel. >> president trump will close out his stay here tomorrow. he'll visit the west bank and bethlehem he'll see holy sites there and spend time with mahmoud abbas. that's the latest here live in jerusalem. back to you. >> all right, jay. thank you very much for that report. and stay with nbc bay area for continuing coverage of the president's first foreign trip. lester holt will anchor live from jerusalem tonight, that's at 5:30. >> an unruly passenger forcing a united flight from shanghai to newark to make an unexpected pitd stop at sfo this weekend. >> lock him up!
6:06 am
>> united says the man tried to take another passenger's seat as they were still boarding in shanghai. that's what started all of this. he allegedly refused to move and grew, according to people there, increasingly disruptive. everybody had to deplane while local law enforcement dealt with that matter. the flight had to stop over in san francisco as a result to change out the crews. as you can see, the man is wearing a bright red make america great again hat, hence the shouts as he was getting off the plane, lock him up. >> bay area leaders are getting public input on the region's long range transportation plan. the ntc and association of bay area governments will host two meetings today. one in santa rosa, one in san jose. each meeting is designed to generate feedback on the draft plan called plan bay area 2040. a long term integrated transportation and land use plan that brings in all nine bay area counties. >> with the win tonight in san antonio, the warriors can once again punch their ticket to the
6:07 am
fin finals. >> that didn't take long, because they haven't lost a single game yet. the scenario looking very good for the ws and kevin durant. they have a commanding 3-0 lead over the spurs. they have not lost wurns in the latest playoff run. should fans worry about them getting complacent with an embarrassment of winning. klay thompson said they won't be caught off guard looking ahead. >> right now, we're worried about a really good spurs team. they won 60 games in the regular season. been great this playoffs. we're not looking to the finals just yet. >> they're focused. they have king james awaiting them. the ws on a collision course, it looks like, with cleveland, although the celtics put a road bump in that. avery bradley sinking a three pointer, giving the celts a surprising win over the cavaliers. the cavs now lead the finals two games to one. >> we're coming up on 6:08 on this monday morning. and it's a mild start on what will be another hot day.
6:08 am
we're at 57 degrees right now in the peninsula. 49 degrees, and you can see that fog as we look at san francisco this morning. also low clouds over the north bay. it's 49 degrees there as you get ready to head out. then look at these highs, again today, very hot inland. up to 95 in the tri-valley. the peninsula, 85. and 88 in the south bay. we'll also see 90s in the north bay. san francisco will be much cooler. and nice 75 degrees. we'll take a look at the temperature trend for evergreen in about four. mike has a new crash in san jose. >> unfortunately, because we have so many traffic cameras, we're able to find the effects. north 101 right here, it was south 101 onto north 680 where seconds ago we had traffic backed up. there was a quick traffic break. a car hit one of the side walls there. fortunately did not go off the edge. looks like it might have cleared. we'll show you where that was in the south bay. counter commute down here, so no problem for south 101 or 680.
6:09 am
we're tracking the ripple throughout the area in the next few minutes. we have this which will continue for a few minutes, at least. a tad bit heading down through the tri-valley. highway 84 also possible. i'll be tracking this crash here, upper east shore freeway, we just got word of a crash which may be in lanes and cause more slowing between the carquinez bridge and richmond. back to you. >> thank you very much. >> hey, now. coming up next on today in the bay, the reason gas prices are expected to jump as we head into the memorial day weekend. >> plus, stepping into the future, the upgrades to one of san francisco's iconic painted ladies. [ whistles ]
6:10 am
internet speeds 20x faster. at&t fiber sounds amazing. wait a sec, i'm not done yet. less than 12% of at&t homes actually qualify. huh... hold on. everyone else gets our other, slower internet speeds. but no one reads this stuff anyway. except for the old guy with the binoculars. huh... we got ourselves a reader.
6:12 am
it is 6:12 as the sun rises over the south bay, this is a live look at san jose. and you see nothing but sun out there. the temperature trend for evergreen is going to start out nice and then at how hot it will be by 2:00 this afternoon. another sizzling day, but we are going to catch a break. i'll talk more about that coming up in five minutes. >> and this is a tough drive. look at that, though, you saw it go from 49 to 45 minutes. improvement. hopefully quickly.
6:13 am
south 6 through pleasanton. the earlier crash has cleared near sunol. we'll track the ripple effect. >> thank you very much. >> 6:13 on your monday, just in time for memorial day weekend coming up this weekend, the chp launching its click it or ticket campaign, reminding drivers and passengers to buckle up. the national campaign runs through june 4th and the chp will be out in full force cracking down on violators. just a reminder, it doesn't take much time to buckle up, but it could save your life. more than 97% of californians do buckle up. >> as we do barrel toward the memorial day weekend, you can expect gas prices to continue to climb. prices at the pump recentlyrosis about a half cent for a gallon of regular, but they're expected to go much higher as the cost of crude oil jumps. a look at where things stand. local prices in the bay area. san jose, the average price of gas is $3.16 a gallon. in oakland, $3.14.
6:14 am
in san francisco, no surprise, the highest of the group, the average price of a gallon of regular gas will set you back $3.23 a gallon. >> for years, tesla offered owners a nice perk. they could charge their cars for free at any of their super charger stations. in january, the company said it was going to phase the program out. tesla says now new users can take advantage if they get a driver to give them a reffral code existing owners can give free unlimited charging up to five friends. current owners can still get free charging if they decide to buy another tesla model. if somebody is friendly, you know why. >> you have to make those friends. >> a new look for some very old and storied ladies here in san francisco. on wednesday, san francisco's famous alamo square opening up to the public again after a $5 million makeover. >> the park is not the only thing that looks different. the neighborhood also makings. one of the iconic painted ladies across the street from alamo
6:15 am
square has taken a big step into the future. the original painted lady built in 1892 now supplies her own power. solar panels were added to the roof, allowing the historic home to generate 90% of its own electricity. the homeowner tells us he's hoping the fact he was able to do it will inspire other people to also go green. >> despite a very well known historical home, it's still possible to go with a clean energy solution. and it's something that everybody can do. it's not difficult. we have probably had one of the most difficult houses to get solar onto, and we did it. >> solar company sunrun had that daunting task of installing the solar panels on top of the steep roof of the house. >> the was good p for sunrun. however, the company also has a daunting task ahead explaining itself to investors. >> there are accusations this morning about the accuracy of its numbers. >> yeah, and that's one of the
6:16 am
toughest accusations you can face on wall street. the "wall street journal" says this morning it talks with former managers of the solar start-up who tell reporters they manipulated sales numbers ahead of the company's ipo in 2015. the managers claim they were told not to report customer cancellations which had the effect of boosting sales numbers. the journal says the ce oh declined to be interviews for the article but in a written statement, she said the company turned up no evidence of wrongdoing. a monday morning surprise out of detroit. the ceo of ford is out. mark fields who helped lead ford into new industries like ride share and automated cars will step down. ford just confirmed that just a couple minutes ago. ford haa notable presence in the bay area as it works to compete with google and tesla. it has an advanced research lab in palo alto where they're working on cars of the future. including a self-driving ford fusion, and it purchased chariot, the small private bus
6:17 am
system that runs routes in san francisco. we expect those efforts will grow bigger because the person in charge of the efforts, the new ceo, is jim hackett, who used to run the palo alto effort. so more automated cars, more electric cars, more in palo alto. and it sounds as if uber is staying in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, not going very well. uber, you remember, moved its automated cars out of san francisco after it was discovered uber never got permission from the state of california to drive them, so they did allow their testing in pittsburgh. the mayor of pittsburgh says uber has backed out of promises to provide free rides and backed out of help with a $50 million grant application. pittsburgh is kind of finding out what it's like to do business with uber. >> you know the tory about the frog and the scorpion? >> yes, tell us. >> i don't have time to tell you. you have to google it. basically, frog and scorpion. >> yeah. thank you very much, scott. and pore flooding is

6:21 am
84 still seeing more traffic. let's check with waze and they'll show you if you do use that blue route, that's a slower drive. you cut across through stanley, that might help you out more than 680. that will continue to change. make sure you're joining our team. one of the wazers in the east bay told us about the crash on willow that did clear from the upper east shore freeway. if you join our team, nbc bay area wazers, you help us out and we'll help you. >> thanks. preventing obesity and health issues at a young age. >> after the break in two minutes, the new dietary guidelines from doctors that impact anyone with young children. the big, bulky part of a furniture delivery arrives on time, but the accessories don't. i'm chris chmura, nbc bay area responds, next. president trump is at the
