>> we still have that breaking news. major issues on b.a.r.t. after a maintenance vehicle derailed early this morning. we have team coverage tracking the impact on your commute. plus, new this morning, a standoff comes to an end in a south bay apartment complex overnight. what led up to the confrontation. and easing congestion. >> getting people off the road in a busy peninsula city. "today in the bay" continues right now. thanks for joining us on this thursday and the first day of february. i'm kris sanchez in for laura garcia. >> and i'm marcus washington. heading over to mike inouye who is tracking what's going on for your morning commute. we have a b.a.r.t. situation this morning that will cause delays, mike. >> and back with sky ranger. these tracks are b.a.r.t. tracks. this is a maintenance vehicle which may have been the root of problems. talking about what happened and why the headlights and flashlights are here on the track.

let me show you what it is and it's causing a delay. i have it outlined in bright red. major delay for the warm springs line that takes from you warm springs up to d.c. and south hayward where the track damage is addressed. this is not affecting the trains. it's a separate set of tracks. ac transit and vta will take you north. that is one option for folks who will continue to use transit. this is the area we see that track damage. you see more traffic flow on the roadways. this accident is not bad. driving is an option. this area here fremont, warm springs, that is the corridor that will be affected. it does not affect these folks over to the dublin/pleasanton line. the more direct approach, bob, you'll tell us what happened, folks are out there right now. >> reporter: good morning to you, mike. b.a.r.t. is telling commuters like ones here in fremont to expect major delays because of

what happened there between south hayward and union. let's go back to sky ranger. you see a live look at what workers are trying to fix. around 3:20 one of those maintenance trucks doing work on the rail in the san francisco direction when it became derailed and damaged the third line and -- the third rail and the cover. that section of that line is shut down. that's a result of what you're having to do on the warm springs line only, single tracking between south hayward and union city. you can imagine that will cause what b.a.r.t. is saying major delays. we don't know in terms of time how much that will be. commuters here are reacting. will this have much impact? >> hopefully not. >> reporter: and if it does? >> live with it. >> oh, no. i'll probably be late for work right now. >> reporter: is that going to be okay? >> i'll let my manager know. >> i don't know how long it's supposed to be delayed.

it happens once in a while heading towards the city. you just have to deal with it. you get there when you get there. >> reporter: b.a.r.t. has not put out an update when they think the repairs will be complete. again, as we saw moments ago on sky ranger, the workers are still out there trying to fix that rail. so clearly that's not happened as of yet. we'll be putting out a push alert to your cell phone. go to our app to sign up for those alerts. reporting live at the free throw month b.a.r.t. station. >> not a way anyone wants to start their morning. 6:03. we want to bring in meteorologist kari hall. they're not going to need it the rest of the day. >> it's going to warm up quickly and we've had such chilly temperatures to start out the morning. later on today we're talking 70s and i haven't seen a lot of fog which if the north bay why couldn't we have that yesterday when there was a lunar eclipse? well, this morning it is all

mostly clear. temperatures in the low to mid-40s and 49 in san jose. look at our highs today. we're talking low 70s and we could be setting some records here so i'll have a look at those numbers and what's ahead as we go to super bowl weekend coming up in a few minutes. thank you, kari. an arrest after a standoff at a san jose apartment complex. brand-new video in to our newsroom overnight showing the scene because it ended long after most folks went to bed. this happened at the willow creek apartment complex near fruitdale avenue. police say a man allegedly pointed a gun at a family inside the complex and fled into a unit. a three-hour standoff followed, but it ended peacefully around 2:00 this morning when officers took that suspect into custody. police tell us they will release more information on this later this morning. we'll pass it on when we get it. a potential solution to bay area's traffic problem. listen up. palo alto city leaders are moving forward with a plan to

build a car-lighthousing development at a congested intersection. >> pete suratos is live this morning with how the proposal could help to ease some of the traffic whoes oes in the city. do you think people will bite on this concept? >> reporter: good morning to you, kris. an interesting concept, this car-light project and the goal is to have it built on the busy area behind me. and the idea with these units, smaller units, but folks will give them incentives to use different modes of transportation so maybe not wanting to drive in this area and using other modes of transportation that will include giving residents in that complex passes to use things such as cal train, vta, and even bicycles. they want to provide them with monthly stistipends, up to $100r services like uber and lyft.

these will be smaller units between 500 to 700 feet in size and they're trying to appeal to the affordability of what they call the missing middle so workers who make too much. six of the units will be restricted for renters with income levels at 120% to 150% of the median income. a single renter your income would be around $95,000. altogether they want to build about 57 units. one of these empty parking lots along el camino real, no word on when the construction will begin. a lot of people will be happy. continuing coverage at 6:06. google's expansion into downtown san jose is a step closer to reality. "the mercury news" reports the mountain view tech based company. the paper says google will pay $6 7 million for nine parcells of land. the company wants to build

offices near the s.a.p. center to hold up to 20,000 google employees. it is 6:06 now and the race is on. hundreds gathered for an outdoor town meeting last night with many of the candidates for san francisco mayor in attendance. they were peppered with questions about the homeless problem, also rising rent. five of the eight candidates running in the upcoming special election spoke at the town square including former interim mayor london breed. a lot of folks say the national political climate has been paying much more close attention to political races. >> considering what's going on in the world, i think we all have to show up as much as possible and come to these types of forums and do our job as citizens and vote. >> the special election to replace the late mayor ed lee is scheduled for june. more details now on how much money san francisco mayoral candidates have raised so far. "the examiner" is going through

campaign finance records this morning and so far former state senator mark leno says he's raised half a million. london breed has raised $300,000. other candidates have far less including supervisor jane kim who reports $140,000 and former supervisor angela alito who has about $66,000. a man behind bars this morning. police believe he may have other victims. his name is stanley friesen. authorities arrested him in tracy. the alleged crime happened in milpitas. police say friesen met a woman at a bay month inn for what she thought would be a date. they say he quickly turned into something sinister. >> the gentleman said he was a police officer. he produced a badge and had a firearm. fearing for her safety and thinking she may get arrested decided to go along with the sexual act. >> police say afterwards the woman called police because she

thought he might be an impersonator. social media played a big role in their brief relationship. the two met with the help of a dating app. police tell us his texts with the victim eventually led to his arrest. happening today we'll find out how much progress we've seen in the sierra snowpack. we know those surveys are critical. the department of water resources will conduct the second snow survey of the season. this is when they did the third one back january 3. today's survey is expected to have better results. we were off to a good start. now who knows when we'll get snow, right, kari? it may be a while. in six minutes a look at a report for squaw valley and alpine meadows. if you're going to the sierras this weekend check that out. right now temperatures are in the mid-40s in the north bay. also in the tri-valley. 49 now in san jose.

that union city station. we'll track this and send it right back to you. >> good news for us. we ask people do you have a minute to talk? no, we have to get to work. b.a.r.t. riders have a minute. >> they have the time today. up next on "today in the you know it if you have kids in the south bay. four miniature horses were attacked by dogs. new this morning, the steps the zoo is taking to keep its animals and visitors safe. and your next uber might have two wheels. we'll pedal that story.

bay on the rails and we'll show you the options on the roads as well coming up. thanks, mike. the mauling death of four miniature horses is raising questions about security at the zoo. a pack of dogs attacked the horses and a donkey in two separate incidents in mid-january. the zoo only announced the maulings this week. the dogs have been captured and according to "the mercury news" until now only one guard has patrolled outside the park during overnight hours but now guards are patrolling inside and outside. a well-known bay area acrobat is now searching for her prize possession. i'm talking about a unicycle. also the man who may know where it is. >> we know what he looks like. police say the sfo security images caught the man walking off with the luggage last wednesday. and that included a 7-foot-tall unicycle, clearly folded up. he stood next to the conveyor belt before walking off with the

bags. san francisco's rong niu is behind the red panda acrobat act. she performs at college and pro basketball games. she had just landed back at home on a flight from denver. neighbors say she's back on the road with a borrowed unicycle but really wants her old one back. >> i can't imagine it has retail value. it has great sentimental value. >> basketball teams around the nation who have hosted her, doing their part to get word out. one school is even offering a $2,000 reward. so kind. >> i know, right. from one wheel to now two, uber may have them, too. >> scott mcgrew, uber and bikes? uber and bikes. uber will let you rent bikes so you'll be able to check your uber app and find bikes you can ride to your destination. they have the word jump on them. uber is teaming up with a

company called jump bike. these things have electric assist so you pedal but an electric motor gives you a bit of a boost as well. you've probably seen the ford bike you can rent from bike racks around the city. these are different because they would be parked wherever somebody left them. this is a controversial idea. some cities it's an eyesore. crazy session on the stock market yesterday, up and down. ending up a positive 72 points. this after a drubbing on wednesday. you might get a message from twitter informing you you've re-tweeted russian propaganda. it says it will notify nearly 1.5 million people who unknowingly fell for messages created by russian intelligence. in one case russian investigators got white supremacists and black lives matter activists to face off against each other in houston, texas. both sides thought the other one started it but, in fact, russians started it on facebook and twitter and then the two

sides clashed. >> now my kids will use that as an excuse. it was the russians. >> it worked when i was a kid. it's coming back around. >> sometimes you just want plausible deniability. jimmy fallon thinks he knows who will win the super bowl. the annual puppy prediction relies on which bowl the majority picks. release the hounds and the winner is the patriots. fallon has been doing this bit since 2013. we checked his track record overnight to see how accurate he's been. of the five previous predictions, the puppies have only been right twice. poor puppies. find out if the puppies properly predict this year's patriots victory by watching the super bowl with us right here on sunday on nbc bay area. you bring the snacks. >> the puppies have only been right twice. the puppies have always gotten the food as far as they're

concerned. >> whether they're right or wrong, they're good. bellies are full just like at most parties. >> what about those rails? >> some of the stations will be fuller as well. the reason why is not good news. sparks are flying. they're working on repairing the rails. that's a truck there, one of the maintenance vehicles. what happened there was a maintenance going on right here and track damage after the vehicle was derailed. i think this is the one that's coming to help out and they've been going around with flashlights and headlights doing the repair work in the dark trying to get things back in order by 8:00 a.m. right now, though, this is causing delays because you can't use these tracks. you have to use the ones next to it. between union city and south hayward. waiting up through fremont. now you look at your map over here and where the damage is.

folks coming up to the area or down from richmond and san francisco, those are all delayed. these folks are doing just fine. that's a lot of talk about the rails. a look at the roads. the roads are looking great. mild slowing through the south bay. slowing across the san mateo bridge for the build and the bay bridge metering lights were on. there was a crash in san francisco off the bay bridge at the 9th street exit. there possibly was a bicyclist hit. it's not a big deal. it might be a bigger deal for the bicyclist. there were no wet roads to complicate things. it's going to be a beautiful day even though we started out with cool temperatures. it will warm up quickly today. we could be setting some new record highs today as we get a live look outside in san francisco now and that seven-day forecast comes up at the bottom of the screen. what we're forecasting for the

high temperature and what the record is. 72 degrees. we should be at 59 degrees and we are way above that and our record is 72 degrees set back in 1982. concord may also set a record. and while some other parts of the bay area will be very warm, we may stay a few degrees above those record highs, and 2005 was a warm year. let me break it down for san jose. we start out at 50 degrees at 8:00. a few clouds here and there, a lot of sunshine and low 70s by this afternoon and then cooling off quickly to about 60 degrees at 8:00 tonight. we're talking beach days for the first day of february. half moon bay will be really nice this afternoon reaching near 70 degrees. we'll be up to 68 degrees already by 1:00 today. and just a few clouds in the mix but nothing that's going to bring any rain. in fact, no rain in the forecast the next several days. san francisco in the upper 60s to low 70s and, yes, for the

super bowl we'll be basking in 74-degree temperatures. i'll have fore look at the forecast coming up in just a few minutes. no complaints from me. >> not at all. coming up next on "today in the bay," an apology to one of larry nassar's accusers. >> i believe if my report would have been taken seriously in 2004 that many of these victims would have never met larry nassar. >> the public apology expected today from the police department that dismissed that young woman's complaint more than a decade ago. also new this morning she says it's too little too late. plus chris chmura is here with a tip for "this is us" fans this morning. it's the "this is us" episode everyone wants to see. >> it hit me like a bolt of lightning. >> and it's right after the

a public apology for a woman who filed a report against dr. larry nassar more than a decade ago. she is one of those 250 women who spoke about nassar at his sentencing hearing last week. she says she filed a police report against him in 2004 but the police in michigan did not refer her complaint to prosecutors. police chief david hall who was interim chief in 2004 says they were wrong and they need to admit it. randall gates says it's upsetting nassar's abuse could have been stopped 14 years ago which could have compared future victims. 6:27 now. coming up next on "today in the bay," more controversy surrounding palo alto's james franco. a piece of artwork he's created at his bay area high school that's now been erased. and continuing coverage on the breaking news of the major delay on b.a.r.t. this morning. it is 6:27. you're watching "today in the bay." we )re following breaking

"today in the bay's" thom jensen is live at the school. this is so hard. >> short-term plans are as far as a response to this death. our condolences to this girl who just died recent ly of all of te kids who have passed this school year so far. the centers for disease control is warning this could be the deadliest flu season ever for kids, 37 kids died from the flu season so far this year. it has already sanitized liberty

high school due to an aggressive flu season as reported by the east bay times. we do not know if it is related. the california department of public health. according to their analysis 97 people died so far in california. this flu season. a weekly report designates this as a widespread flu outbreak across the state, not just isolated pockets. and there were 23 deaths from the flu just in that one week that was reported on that weekly report. so there has been a spike recently. here is what you need to know this flu season according to state and federal health officials. they say pregnant women, people over 65, and children under 5 are at the greatest risk but especially anyone with respiratory or heart problems. they also warn not to share

silverware or drinking vessels with anyone especially if you know that they are sick. remember to keep your hands clean and away from your mouth and eyes especially around sick people. do not go to school or work for at least 24 hours after your fever passes if you do get the flu. they will have more test results and effectiveness of the flu vaccination. they say that it's not too late to get vaccinated. we are live in brentwood, "today in the bay." a mural painted by actor james franco is no longer up at palo alto high school. his alma mater is erasing his contribution following allegations of sexual misconduct. we spoke with his former teacher

about this. >> i support the principal and what she did. she pretty much had to take down the mural because she was responding to the community but he has not been given the opportunity to defend himself. >> we have reached out for comment but have not heard back. the emergency alert system goes on line. many other cities in alameda county use the system. it allows police to call people. officials say the benefit is those who send that alert can do this from a single interface. >> and we're not going with that type of alert but it affects folks in fremont. sky ranger's view. the repair work that goes on in

south hayward. there was track damage at 3:20 this morning. the repair work continues. hopefully they can get this done by 8:00 and then we can restore servi service. this has been here from just a few minutes ago. i just showed you how close they are. the crews have flashlights out. want to make sure they can do all the prevention. 10 to 15 minute delay reported here on our map system. the possibility of over 20-minute delays. roadways are getting more crowded. >> a lot of people are dealing

71 degrees and normal for february 1st is 59 degrees. we're going to stay really warm over these next few days. i'll have a look at that forecast. and from sky ranger you see the work continuing. i saw another truck come over here and i think it was getting this maintenance vehicle back on the track. trying to get to the damaged section and continue the repair work. that's why there are delays from the b.a.r.t. system. the latest progress from b.a.r.t. coming up. >> thanks, mike and kari. looking for more victims this morning, a popular soccer coach accused of sexual assault. he sexually assaulted a minor he met while coaching. gonzalez had numerous coaching jobs throughout the south bay including oak grove high school. this is in san jose. morgan hill and south valley junior high school. he was also a driver for lyft.

police say that sexual assault happened at a home in morgan hill. 6:45 and happening today state and marijuana leaders will help clear some of the haze surrounding recreational marijuana rules and regulations in california. the new california bureau of cannabis control, the bcc, is hosting a workshop in oakland today. it will help people make sense of those licensing requirements. representatives from the state department of health, the state food and ag department, the tax department along with local agencies will be there to answer questions as well. the meeting is from 10:00 to 1:00 today at oakland marriott city center which is the one on broadway. for more information you can go to the bureau of cannabis control online or go to nbcbayarea.com. working with the bureau of cannabis control to get licensing numbers, how many recreational agencies we have here. so far they've given me the number for santa clara county. there are seven licensed

retailers for san jose. there are none, though, in campbell, milpitas, morgan hill, palo alto, san a clara, sunnyvale or cupertino. zero for recreational pot in santa clara county so far. 36 hours ago president trump called for americans to come together. >> scott mcgrew, that changed this morning. >> it changed this morning. good morning to you. i want to take you way back in history to tuesday when the president was delivering his state of the union speech. that's when he called for unity and bipartisanship. in fact, i'm reading right from his script. tonight i'm extending an open hand to work with members of both parties, so this morning he tweeted march 5th is rapidly approaching and the democrats are doing nothing about daca. they resist, blame, complain and

obstruct. the call is over this morning. trump would later tweet his state of the union address got the best rating any president ever. things are moving very quickly in the russia investigation, "the new york times" this morning reporting robert mueller taking a very keen interest in that meeting between this woman, a russian lawyer, and trump's campaign team at trump tower two summers ago where the russians promised dirt on hillary clinton. we know they offered dirt because donald trump jr. who was at the meeting said they did. he showed everybody e-mails about it on twitter. here's the problem beyond meeting with russians who have dirt on your dad's political opponent. the president told "the new york times" this meeting, which he was not even at, was about adoption law. an explanation that would later be disproven by his own son. "the new york times" says mueller's very interested in who else was part of that false explanation. we expect the president may

authorize the release of that memo that criticizes the fbi who is investigating him. we'll publish it to twitter when it becomes public. thank you very much, scott. the wait is nearly open for people wait to go see winchester mystery house story come to the silver screen. >> i won't because i have a ticket. the first showing of "winchester" begins at most bay area theaters. the movie stars helen mieren. as you likely know she designed the mansion to keep evil spirits away after her husband and her son died. some of the scenes were filmed here in san jose. >> a fun time to get out and see that. right now a look at what's going on b.a.r.t. wise. >> winchester, look at that. >> oh, no, don't. >> it's a remote control. over the scene -- look at what i

want to show you. we have this maintenance vehicle. we showed you it was limping over some of the railing there and they're continuing to repair the work here. just a little bit further up out of frame another vehicle that has a crane on the back of it. we might get a glimpse of that. i think helping move the railing as well as possibly helping get that back on the track. i'm not sure what the vehicle is for but they have more crews over there and continue to repair it. let's get to the map and we'll show you the delays, 15 to 20 minutes, shy of what's a major delay for the system and that's mostly between south hayward and union city. hopefully the repair will be cleaned up by 8:00 when they hope to have the tracks reopened. ac transit isn't experiencing any problems. of course ace train is not affected because that's on the union pacific line. we do have a crash reported south 880 over in hayward.
