unit, talking about a four-officer unit that's already in operation, and we'ring will told they made arrests already to the men who are soliciting these workers, often referred to as johns as well as the pimps who the sex workers are working for. on the flipside advocates want to look out for the sex workers, caught in the middle of it. what the sex workers are being offered referred to as l.e.a.d., what the police is refer to it as and it stands for law enforcement assistant diversion, instead of arresting the sex worker, bringing them to the station and offering social services. the idea is to get them ultimately out of the business so all of this is good news to address a problem going on in the mission district for decades. we're live here at the golden gate bridge, pete suratos for "today in the bay." >> pete, thank you. it is 6:02 right now. we continue to track the snell fire that's been burning in napa county. evacuations remain in place for people living in the berryessa

aestates. the fire break out saturday afternoon. more than 24 acres burned. it's 20% contained and flames are threatening almost 200 homes but so far no homes or structures have burned. one couple we spoke to chose not to evacuate. last night they sprayed down their home as the fire burned within yards of their neighborhood. >> we lost our house in the valley fire and we didn't want to do that again. we've been through that once and that was it. we're going to stay and protect our house. >> calm winds have helped fire crews gain traction in containing the fire. nearly 500 firefighters including a crew from san mateo are on the front lines. we want to bring back meteorologist kari hall she's been tracking the storm and the weather surrounding it. >> the smoky skies. >> yes, so hazy but we did have improvement over the weekend and that's what we'll see through the day, except for the north bay near the wildfires we'll have moderate air quality.

looking good for the bay and the coast and areas south of the golden gate bridge, not as smoky there, and look at our winds and the pattern that we'll see, those winds still coming in from the north, but then starting to turn off towards the east as we go throughout the day and our winds fairly light that will begin to pick up toward the middle of the week. we've had good recovery there, humidity at 80%, we look for the humidity values to go up during the morning hours and winds are still calm as we go through the day, our temperatures head up to the low 80s, which is not extreme heat, but we will see the humidity dropping and the temperatures warming up. i'll continue to monitor that and also look at the forecast, coming up in a few minutes. >> thanks, kari. 6:04 right now. another sauceful launch and landing for the spacex falcon 9 rocket. >> three, two, one, zero. ignition, liftoff. >> there you have is it. this is new video showing the rocket take-off from cape

work saying he's got hundreds of pages of notes from those interviews. >> that people better wake up to what's going on. >> reporter: bob woodward says he was meticulous and careful interviewing more than 100 people for his book "fear dgs detailing chaos inside the trump white house. >> people who work from him are worried he will sign things or give orders that threaten the national security or the financial security of the country, or the world. >> reporter: now backing woodward's claims and those in an anonymous "new york times" editorial, former white house aide omarosa manigold. >> when he would do something crazy unhinged, foot positions from one hour to the next we hashtag it tfa. >> reporter: tfa, 25th amendment, removing a president from office. "the times" editorials claims

aides discussed it often. >> absurd. >> reporter: the white house dismissed her as a person with no credibility as they hunt for the "times" writer who claims to be part of a resistance working against the president from the inside. and who is not behind writing that editorial, still getting all the denials here in washington, including the vice president, who now says he'd take a lie detector test to prove it. marcus and laura? >> all right, tracie, thank you. later this hour analysis of all the news out of washington. scott mcgrew has your checks and balances at 6:45 and follow him on twitter and facebook. happening today, guess who is coming back to the bright lights in oakland? we are talking of course about the return of raiders head coach jon gruden. live look at the coliseum, quiet now, but in just a few hours it will be rocking. the raiders host the l.a. rams on monday night football. for gruden, this marks the

as far as any big slowing. we're looking at the gradual build for the south bay and 237 does show a nice smooth start. looks like there may be a crash over on caribbean. i'll double check that because it doesn't look like it's much of a problem and chp doesn't have a lot of information on that particular incident. we see the sensors slowing for the tri valley. the build through pleasanton, 880 south of hayward and down toward union city and over here we had the other crash at marina boulevard which may have activity blocking the slow lane as you make that off-ramp approach. no major problems for san leandro. now there is more traffic flow, we talked about that last report, coming down through concord and south 680 at treat boulevard a new crash reported, may be affecting one lane, the activity itself is just going to slow traffic headed toward the walnut creek interchange, but you see the bottom of your screen, we're still moving smoothly for 24 and 680 there at that interchange and a nice smooth drive, only 18 minutes

highway 4, slowing through richmond and headed to the backup at the bay bridge toll plaza which you know will be there. north bay shows you san rafael southbound 101 picks up the volume but no real problems headed toward the golden gate bridge. back to you. >> let's hope it stays that way. thank you, mike >> it is 6:10 right now. september is national suicide prevention month and while many of us want to help, often the question is what do you say to someone who is struggling? here is a script from the national suicide prevention lifeline. they say that if you have a friend who is thinking about suicide, ask them if they thought about how they would do it and separate them from anything they could use to hurt themselves. this is part of their be the one two campaign, in this instance you can be the one to keep them safe. the number for the national suicide prevention lifeline 1-800-273-talk. 6:10. coming up next on "today in the bay," a lot of parents worried

ford says it won't import its newest low-cost car into the united states from china because of the tariffs. president trump says hey, build them here instead. apple just sent this letter to the u.s. trade representative detailing the problems it expects from president trump's tariffs. trump's tariffs on goods made in china, apple says the watch, the air pods, those wireless headphones and chargers and cables are all going to get more expensive because of the tariffs. the iphone won't. when a country like ours slaps tariffs on another country, they lift the specific types of products that will face the tariffs and the iphone doesn't qualify, yet. once president trump heard of the letter, he tweeted there's an easy solution, where there would be zero tax and indeed a tax incentive. make your products in the united states instead of china, start building new plants now, exciting. mr. trump claims tim cook promised to build three major apple plants in the u.s., said

that in the summer 20617. iphones aren't built in factories owned by apple. foxcon the apple supplier is building a tv plant in wisconsin, though it's not for apple. in other news i talked to the california attorney general's office about an upcoming meeting between states attorneys general and the department of justice to talk about the power of twitter and facebook and google. i might think california would be invited but the ag's office tells me so far they haven't heard anything. the meetings are supposed to happen later this month. sessions will talk about immigration. we'll talk more about that as we talk about politics in half an hour. and china's richest man, jack ma, is retiring from the company he created, alibaba. he has a lot of connections to san francisco. yahoo! is a major investor that helped keep yahoo! afloat and we have an unnamed food server in fran to tla f san francisco in thank for the

alibaba name. jack was sitting on the cafe on 17th street in san francisco and came up with alibaba and asked the waitress if she heard, she said of course alibaba and the 40 thieves. open sesame, all that stuff. he knew he had a good name and that's what he went with. >> there you go. parents aren't the only ones concerned about their children being glued to their devices. a new report by the nonprofit called common sense finds teens themselves are concerned about social media addiction. seven out of ten teenagers use apps like snapchat and instagram multiple times a day. this is up more than 30% in six years and teens are aware of that impact is having on their lives. >> more concerned about overuse of social media, even if they admit to being addicted, and constantly distracted, they're worried about that. i think that's a positive, that can lead to behavior change. >> that reports finds teens think social media is good for them and only a few said a few makes them feel badly about themselves.

>> of course facebook. >> you have to go there and watch it. outside today nice and cool. >> nice and cool this morning. we are going to see some cooler temperatures heading through the week. we'll have a nice week ahead. let's get to the view outside as you get ready to head out in dublin. beautiful sunrise as we see the skies are all clear, and it won't be as hazy as we've seen recently, improving air quality, that's great news as you get ready to head out the door on your way to school in martinez, we will see temperatures about 58 degrees as you're walking to school. jacket needed to start, but not later on today, we're still going to warm up. we'll be at 80 degrees as you go back to pick the kids up from school and as we head to the south bay to see our highs, los gatos reaching 85 degrees, still hot in gilroy, 90 today. downtown san jose will be up to 80 degrees and upper 80s for pittsburg today, oakland 74 degrees and some lower 60s for

half moon bay. daly city 60 degrees and 76 degrees in redwood city. san francisco some low to mid-60s, notice the winds picking up from the west at about 20 miles per hour. it's going to be gusty today, and the north bay seeing those temperatures reaching up to 84 in novato and still some drifts of smoke because of the snell fire in napa county. if you're going to the raiders game tonight, kickoff at 7:20 and we're going to see some cool temperatures in the low 60s. it's still going to be breezy out there. make sure you have on a nice warm jacket and right on the other side of the bay, at 7:15, first pitch for the giants game will be at 60 degrees there, and some upper 50s throughout much of the game with some mostly clear skies. we're going to see cooler weather moving in by the end of the week as this area of low pressure you see the swirl of the clouds bringing rain to the pacific northwest. we're not going to get any rain but this system will be dipping into the bay area, bringing us a little bit more cloud cover and

cooler temperatures. look at how our temperatures respond thanks to that area of low pressure moving in. we go from 88 degrees for some of our warmer temperatures today inland, to 75 on wednesday, and thursday looking pretty good and breezy as well, but then don't think that we're just going to head straight into fall. we're back to summer by the weekend with mid 80s in the forecast, san francisco staying in the 60s all week long but slightly cooler for wednesday and thursday. now mike, you've been tracking the roads, what is up right now? what's going on? >> we have mostly clear roadways as far as the freeways go. i'm concerned about this crash, i reported it during the tease, crash involving a muni bus. the update we have, this is where it is in san francisco off of lombard. some inspector, headed to the scene. sounds like the bus went into a building. pete suratos is headed out there as well. lombard around scott, the 28 and the 91, one other bus line that goes through the area as well, so we haven't gotten specifics from muni on which lines are

affected but i'm going to say all like pi ly if they stop mun service through the area. that's one section of san francisco. the rest of the bay shows a smooth, easy drive, what you expect at the bay bridge toll plaza the backups there throughout the incline but no major problems out of the east bay. south bay a new crash for sunol for me to check. back to you. >> busy out there, thank you. 6:21, coming up next on "today in the bay" do you think it's easy to count to four? now when it's all four major entertainment awards. the popular artists who reached a difficult mission. if last year's wildfires dakked or destroyed your home your home is needed to help everyone in the state. i'm chris chmura, we'll show you how next.

i )m laura garcia. an a very good monday morning to you. thanks for joining us. i'm laura garcia-cannon. >> and i'm marcus washington. we want to get right to breaking news in san francisco, where a muni bus has crashed into a building. >> nbc bay area's pete suratos just arrived on the scene. we hope to learn more about what -- >> reporter: good morning to you, laura. quite a scene on lombard between scott and pierce. we'll wait for this bus to move out of the way. muni bus crashing into a building, quite a sight to see on a very busy street here in san francisco. we're being told according to san francisco fire that there are about four people who are injured as a result. we don't know the extent of the injuries, but the interesting thing about this, guys, you see that this bus is going against the traffic, or the opposite of the traffic, going in the wrong direction. we did speak to someone once we touched down here and they're telling us, it appears the bus may have driven across the

median, as she thought it was maybe just a dump truck in the area here to pick up the garbage but when she came out she saw the bus ran into this building, so right now guys four people are injured and we know that a city inspector is on the way to check out the structural damage to the building. crash next to the days inn hotel on lombard street, quite a scene with this bus, crashing into this building, and we're going to toss it over to mike, you can talk about the traffic. standing here right now, this could be a problem all morning long. >> definitely, pete. critical portion of lombards afolks make ware way to the golden gate bridge through town. for those who are marginally familiar it's not far from mel's diner, a location a lot of my family and friends know, as we've met over the years and looking at the slower drive the sensors are starting to slow up. if you're heading west on lombard passing by scott, it appears that's where the crash is located. pete mentioned days inn as

another location west of mel's diner, traveling toward the area. i got word from sf mta, at least one bus for line number 28 has been affected but expect 28, 43 and 91 all to travel through the area. they may all be affected by this clearly an issue there. as we look at the rest of the commute into and out of san francisco it's all right but lombard that area of cal hollow will be a problem. other side of the bay getting into the city we're fine. disabled vehicle reported near the toll plaza but not a real problem for traffic flow. we're looking at the tri valley and over toward high ward and the san mateo bridge there is slowing there but kari that's normal. same thing for the tri valley, no surprise as we watch the crash involving muni and a building in san francisco. of course you have the forecast. >> at least the weather is all nice and quiet this morning. we have some mostly clear skies as you make your way inland and as we take a live look outside in the south bay, we have some cool weather, so grab a jacket as you get ready to head out. as we go to south san jose to

santa teresa, at 57 degrees at 8:00 and heading into the upper 70s today, our temperatures still pretty spread out but we will get some cooler air all across the bay area. i'll talk about that and we'll look ahead to the weekend coming up in a few minutes. >> thanks, kari. pg&e's plan to cut down dozens of trees in the east bay is landing with a big thud. number of residents in lafayette want the utility to put away the chainsaws. >> happening today they'll be able to voice their learns at a special meeting. "today in the bay's" bb riddell what do they have to say? >> reporter: good morning to you, laura and marcus. as part of the community pipeline safety initiative, pg&e wants to cut down a number of trees located in lafayette within ten feet of their high pressure transmission gas lines, just over 200 trees within the city limits and another 240 in brionas regional park, something that pg&e has done in other communities throughout the state. the utility tells us the trees need to be removed to allow

first responders access during an earthquake or another emergency but michael and gina dawson behind the group save lafayette trees sued to stop the tree cutting. they say pg&e has their safety priorities backwards, they believe the utility should be focused on section of exposed gas pipeline that runs along lafayette maraga trail or lack of automotive shutoff valves. when a pipeline burst and caught fire in san bruno in 2010, it took pg&e 90 minutes to manually turn off the gas because there wasn't an automatic shutoff valve. eight people died, 38 homes were destroyed. >> it's brought nothing but a lot of confusion, frustration to communities. not that feeling of pipeline safety, which is why we started this. we don't trust now the pipeline being used. >> we want to tell pg&e we want to work with them. we don't think taking down trees is the right priority.

we think there are other things they can do, and we're willing to work with them on setting those priorities. >> reporter: pg&e tells us they are aware of and evaluating what if anything to do about that exposed gas pipeline along the lafayette marauga trail. according to pg&e, their safety engineers say trees are the number one safety priority. just like you can't park a car in front of a fire hydrant, you can't have trees blocking access to a high pressure gas pipeline. residents submitted about 150 questions and concerns to pg&e not only about trees but about pipeline safety in general. you can see on your tv screen the utility did respond in this 72-page long document. we'll be sure to link that to our website nbcbayarea.com. the city of lafayette is facilitating this afternoon's meeting. with pg&e and the cpuc, which regulates the utility. it will be at 4:00 here at the community hall at the lafayette library and learning center behind me in downtown lafayette. reporting live, bob riddell, "today in the bay." >> bob, thank you.

6:35, a terrifying afternoon in gilroy where a suspect drove a car onto a field next to where hundreds of pop cairn ewarner p were competing. >> kris sanchez tells us how he ended up so close to all of the kids. good morning, kris. >> reporter: good morning to you, marcus and laura. when some of those parents saw that driver on the field next to where hundreds of kids were playing in a pop warner tournament, this he knew something was wrong, and they jumped to action, trying to close the gate trying to get that driver to stop. now when gilroy police arrived on scene, that suspect was still on the field trying to drive away though and the suspect then allegedly drove his car into an officer on foot or tried to. that gilroy police officer had no way out when the officer fired his weapon. the suspect lost control of the car, eventually surrendered to

police. nobody was hurt by that gunfire. here is what we know about the suspect, though. according to the initial law enforcement bulletin out of fresno that suspect is a former police officer and has access to firearms. he called 911 twice, mentioning the football tournament under way here at gilroy high, and also mentioning the potential kidnapping of a woman in fresno. police say he has no ties to gilroy or pop warner or the high school, so they're not really sure why he's here, only that he was wanted out of fresno. as you mentioned, no one was hurt in the shooting, including the suspect, who is now in custody, but there are a lot of questions here, and we're trying to get to the bottom of them. as soon as we can get answers from gilroy police or fresno police we'll let you know. in gilroy, not fresno, in gilroy, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> a lot of cities we're dealing with there but very concerning, thanks so much. 6:37 right now.

al m almeida's permit process for pop-up restaurants has slipped through the cracks. as nbc bay area recently reported health inspectors have recently shut down some popular pop-up restaurants due to health code issues. a supervisor's health committee will host today's hearing. happening this week a move to save money in contra costa county may lead to changes in health care monitoring because governor brown recently signed a bill to dissolve the west contra costa health care board of directors. it's possible supervisors will consider appointing themselves to the board but other options will also be considered. the health care board currently makes financial additions for paying bond holdings and bills. the meeting will be held tomorrow morning. we're following this story about a muni bus that crashed into a building. pete is on the scene gathering the details of the why and what the going on that he can get. we warned you in 28, 43 and 91,

muni bus lines that go through the area possible delays. now muni is saying yes, indeed 28 at least has one reroute going on and the san francisco authorities are telling us to have folks just avoid the area of lombard between scott and pierce, specifically where the crash is, that's west of the area. in cal hl lowest of mel's diner near days inn, b.a.r.t. recovering from some delays they had as well, 55 trains, may be residual delays in west oakland unrelated to the muni incident we're talking about. let me show you where the crash was for san francisco lombard, less slowing than before. the crews that were arriving have settled into the area so better news but lombard will be an issue getting to and from that golden gate bridge through cal hollow. the rest of the city looking all right, getting over from the east bay, not a major problem but there was a crash reported at the bay bridge. i saw a little unusual traffic throw but the lanes looked like they evened out now which is not great news because that means everybody has the backup at the bay bridge. >> there you go. welcome to monday morning.

>> welcome back. on this monday, we're closer to the weekend than yesterday. >> we're trying to make it through the week. let's look ahead to some warmer weather in case you were unable to get out this past weekend or you had a lot to do. we are going to cool down midweek with our inland valleys reaching into the mid-70s, but then look at saturday and sunday, we're not going to be done with summer just yet. we'll be in the mid 80s and for san francisco, we'll see the temperatures heading back into the mid to upper 60s in time for the weekend. so what are you planning to do? maybe you're going to the sierra. squaw valuey is looking good. morning temperatures chilly in the 30s but highs reaching into the upper 60s and some mostly sunny skies, if you want to head to a vineyard and going tasting through the tri valley it will be in the upper 70s, low 80s, and saturday we're up to 80 degrees, so that's going to be really nice. and then maybe beach plans going

to monterey will be cool. at least 64 degrees all throughout the weekend, with mostly sunny skies, and those clouds lingering throughout the morning hours. let me know what you have planned for this upcoming weekend. i'm @karihallweather and if you're not doing so already follow me on facebook, twitter on instagram. i'll have a look at today's temperature trend coming up in three minutes. >> sounds good, thanks so much, kari. we continue to follow breaking news out of san francisco, a muni bus has crashed into a building. >> take a look at these pictures there, live for us. we know that some of those passengers were hurt. the extent of their injuries unknown. we are live at the scene. we'll have an update coming up for you in a moment. president trump has a lot to say about bob woodward's new book. we'll bring you the latest. let's take you out to the big board as well, dow industrials up 96 points. footlocker up 4%, saying nike sales are doing very well. "today in the bay" will be right back.

it's 6:44 on this monday morning. as you get ready to step out the door in fremont, the clouds you're seeing will clear up fairly fast. 61 degrees is the temperature at 10:00, and then some upper 70s at 4:00 today. nice day to get outside and go for a long walk. we'll talk about the rest of the week coming up in less than five minutes. we'll talk about a pretty typical pattern for monday but the big problem is here in san francisco, a muni bus into a

building, disrupting line 28 at the very least. also drivers are told to stay out of the area of lombard near scott. we of course have crews on the scene. we'll hand it back to the team. >> we'll toss it over to pete suratos live at the scene of the bus crash. pretty dramatic video he has as well. >> reporter: good morning to you, laura, dramatic indeed and look, we're still here on lom guard street gathering more information from san francisco police. i'll get to that in a moment. once again we'll wait for these buses, it's a busy street here, guys. across the way, you got that muni bus that drove straight into that building. we're learning it's a dry cleaning business that it drove into. as far as the details from san francisco police roughly happened around 5:45 a.m., the 28 muni bus line. the driver in that bus that drove into that building, they don't know exactly why that driver lost control, headed eastbound and drove onto the opposite side of traffic into

that building. we are getting an update as far as injuries go. we first reported according to san francisco fire four people are possibly injured, downgraded to two injuries, one of the injuries being the driver who has life-threatening injuries and also a passenger on the bus who has non-life-threatening injuries, so right now you got this whole investigation taking place with san francisco police. you got them on the scene and the city inspector en route to check out the structural damage of this building and look at the headache with the traffic here and the street closures and san francisco police did not have an estimated time but feel it could possibly reopen in two hours but really guys it's too early to tell. pete suratos for "today in the bay." >> quite the scene behind you. thank you. the president says the new book about the white house is in his words a scam. >> scott mcgrew that book comes up in less than 24 hours. >> written by two-time pulitzer prize winner bob woodward who

has written a slew of books about presidents and with carl bernstein helped bring down richard nixon. the new book is called "fear" based on hundreds of interviews with white house officials. to be clear the white house knew woodward was writing the book and talking to people inside. bob woodward will be on the "today" show coming up at 7:00. the "today" show has run on the east coast, where we got this tape and president trump watched this interview. we know because he tweeted about it, quoting our savannah guthrie, mostly anonymous sources in here. why should anybody trust you, general mattis and general kelly said it's not true. trump said bob woodward who is like a dem operative. prior to the midterms he was caught cold even by nbc. you may notice president trump did not provide woodward's response to savannah's question. here is the moment the president is quoting with both sides. >> you have john kelly, the white house chief of staff calling the president an idiot saying we're in crazy town.

that's a quote. john kelly says that never happened, i didn't say it. jim meatis, another person quoted saying the president's understand is like a fifth or sixth grader. he says i didn't say it. are they lying? >> they are not telling the truth. >> that's lying. >> no, but look, what's going on here, and my old boss at "the washington post," ben bradley, used to say the truth emerges. sometimes it takes time. these people, these are political statements to protect their jobs, totally understandable. >> now watch for that interview coming up this morning on "today" about 7:30. we're watching jeff sessions, he's speaking to new immigration judges, during the same event last year he said u.s. policies that allow immigrants to seek asylum in the united states are broken. we're watching everything that's going on today. you can follow me on twitter, i

am companya @scottmcgrew. 6:48 time for weather and traffic. we know a muni bus has crashed. he's checking the lines but first -- >> let's go to weather, a nice cool day. >> not as much fog as we have seen recently at the golden gate bridge. we'll continue to monitor the air quality which of course has been an issue but there will be some improvement today for areas south of the going goinlden gat but the north bay dealing with smoke with the snell fire that started out on saturday in napa county. our wind pattern will carry a lot of that smoke away from much of the bay area. as we check out dublin today in our temperature trend at 8:00 it's a cool start at 55 degrees but much more comfortable at noon, reaching into the mid 80s for later on today. so a big warmup there. getting the kids up and out the door for school this morning, as you walk to school, you'll need a jacket. it will only be 55 degrees or

you may have to turn up the heater in the car as you go through that drop-off line. as we go through the day, some mid-70s so it will be a very nice one with a lot of sunshine. eventually reaching up to about 80 degrees in san jose. we do still have some very warm weather from morgan hill, extending up toward livermore and antioch and concord, highs reach into the upper 80s and over toward santa rosa with a high of 87 with san francisco today staying in the upper 60s, so as you are getting dressed this morning, grab a jacket, because of these cool temperatures that we're feeling to start, but later on today, short sleeves will keep you comfortable. here is an update on what's happening in the tropics. we have tropical storm paul that has formed just to the west of cabo, and this will continue on over the open pacific over the next few days, and then we also have category 1 hurricane olivia. this has been here for quite a well, strengthening and weakening and this we will kee an eye on it's headed straight

for the hawaiian islands and will move north to the big island as a tropical storm over the next 24 hours, so i'll be giving you more updates on that and the other big headline is hurricane florence, that's now a category 2 in the atlantic, and this is heading westward toward parts of the carolinas, over the next few days, and may become a major hurricane, so this will be making some big headlines over the next few days. as we get a look at our forecast here, san francisco reaches into the upper 60s, slightly cooler for the middle of the week, and then as we look at our inland areas as warm as 88 degrees today but look at the cooldown between wednesday and thursday, highs only in the mid-70s and warming back up again for the weekend. mike, you have an update on that street closure in san francisco. >> pete suratos is out there and told us it's close westbound lombard street. i'm showing you on the maps the red sensors, because of that crash involving a muni bus, line number 28. it crashed into a dry cleaner next to the days inn, very close

to scott. scott and pierce are the borders for the closure. that is the issue. the shot we have pete's crew is on scene, there is that muni bus from line number 28, behind it you could see the awning for the motel, as well as the dry cleaner, which is hidden by the bus. there were injuries reported, it sounds like it's been downgraded from four to two people but look at that tree there, that bus is up on the sidewalk, and that is a huge issue for westbound lombard, that's why it's closed, getting back out to the map, because westbound does take you over toward the golden gate bridge, that is a problem, it's taking you through the city and over toward golden gate bridge, as far as that commute but of course, both directions are slow through the area. again, muni bus line 28, 43 and 91 also traveling through the area. they may be affected because this will be there for a while. the rest of the bay is looking just fine. the south bay over here we have your typical pattern. the tri valley we have a crash which cleared just before you get to sunol boulevard. couple more crashes, a whole

cluster of stuff going on near the dublin interchange but all of that quickly moved to the shoulder as well. the big deal is the crash over in san francisco, because the tri valley moves smoothly and we have that build over here for hayward as well. pete suratos continues to report from the scene, lombard is closed between scott and pierce for that bus in the building, guys, back to you. >> thank you very much, mike. coming up, we're staying on top of that breaking news in san francisco, after that muni bus crashes into a building. pete suratos is speaking with people at the scene. he'll have a live report coming up. first happening now at 6:53, authorities in southeast france say police arrested a man who rammed his car through two glass doors at lyon's international airport and sped onto the runway. brand new video to show you. flights have been diverted away from the french airport and there is a ground stop. we're back in two minutes with more.
