closed, the coroner is on scene conducting the investigation. i expect it to reopen probably in the next 15 minutes. there is slowdown from woodside up to the scene. you can take woodside over to veterans boulevard which will take you right back up to whipple and get you past that scene. that is north of willow. willow is down here, whipple where the crash is up there. the rest of the bay is moving relatively well. we will continue to follow that deadly crash. i know kris sanchez is headed out to there to see if there is any more information to gather. now to a developing story in the east bay, the search continues this morning for a driver who ran over a richmond police officer. that officer was trying to stop this sideshow. it happened early sunday morning. this is instagram video of that sideshow. that officer was hurt, but is expected to be okay. >> "today in the bay's" sergio quintana has the latest on the investigation for us this morning. >> reporter: this is instagram

video of the sideshow in richmond, neighbors tell us it was a noisy and dangerous event. >> never hear anything so close to the police department. it really kind of gave us a sense of security that this wouldn't happen, but unfortunately it looks like it does. >> you could hear the noise, it was just crazy. >> reporter: since the sideshow was so close to police headquarters officers got there quickly, one of the patrolmen was injured as he was trying to wave the drivers to stop. >> it's pretty brazen to run over a police officer that's trying to keep peace in this bedroom community. >> reporter: investigators are still looking for that driver, he is facing serious charges for injuring a policeman. in oakland california highway patrolmen were put in danger at a different sideshow when one shined a laser at the chp's helicopter. >> that sideshow involved 200 vehicles, multiple people outside the vehicles, fireworks being shot in the air, multiple reports of gunfire. >> california highway patrolman

sean boyaha says they were able to track the person and officers on ground arrested him. he is now facing multiple felony charges including potential federal violations for shining a laser at an aircraft. sergio quintana, "today in the bay." the richmond officer is still in the hospital. he suffered several broken bones, cuts and a road rash. the chp says that there were a total of four sideshows in the east bay on saturday. we're going to stay on top of this story throughout the morning. our pete suratos will bring us a live report coming up in an hour. happening today the man charged with driving a stoolen truck and causing a crash that killed two little antioch girls will be back in court. 23-year-old noe saucedo is charged with two counts of murder. he will appear before a judge this afternoon. this is video from his first court appearance last week. saucedo was being chased by sheriff's deputies department of the crash earlier this month. sisters lenexy and camila cardoza were in the truck

saucedo struck but they did not survive. classes at san jose state are supposed to go on as planned today. this is after a water main break yesterday that sent water gushing across the campus. the crews say a pipe broke near two residence halls, this is sending a cascade of water on to the area around san carlos and 9th street. it took more than three hours to shut off that water. at one point campus police had to stop students from crossing through the water. >> definitely did not expect to come back to this. i wasn't here when it blew, but it's a mess. >> crews are supposed to work at least throughout the morning. now, the school says the demand is relatively minor and that the problem is going to be one that they are going to have to continue to fix and it is impacting water service. meantime, in the east bay another water main break caused this destruction in hayward including a sinkhole. that main burst yesterday

morning sending water and mud down highland near mission boulevard. firefighters put up sandbags in front of those homes to prevent possible floods. the two cars had to be removed from the sinkhole. strong winds are whipping through southern california today again, that is coupled with winter heat wave and temperatures that have been in the 80s, almost feels like summer, but that means that fire danger is very high. this is looking at video from the wind fueled thomas fire from last month. the largest in state history. red flag warnings are in effect today for the mountains and foothills from los angeles to san diego. yesterday nearly 80 mile per hour winds were recorded in the hills of ventura county. here at home we're experiencing a dry patch of weather. in fact, let's take a look at our satellite radar right now. not a whole lot going on, seeing it up in the seattle/portland area, but meteorologist kari hall is tracking just how long this is going to take. finally, kari, might get a

chance to get that car washed. we've been waiting for a while because we had so much rain last week. >> we had so much rain last week. we do still need the rain because we are not caught up to normal but we will see all of that wet weather that you're seeing to the north staying there as we go into the next several days. fog our issue for the north bay as you get ready to head out the door and it will be a dry day despite the clouds. right now our temperatures are fairly chilly. we will talk more about what to expect as our temperatures today reach into the mid 60s. we will be up to 66 degrees in san jose and look at how warm it will be for the end of january. we know that it's not supposed to be that warm. that's what we will see throughout the week. so i will talk more about that coming up in just a few minutes. >> look at that, 71 in santa cruz. >> yes. >> beach time. >> okay. >> thanks a lot. coming up on "today in the bay," is the trump administration looking to get into the wireless business? two news outlets suggest there is plans to make this a reality. stopping by starbucks this morning? we will tell you what the coffee
