truck scales that turns a little to the tesla, the manufacturing plant and car company, northbound. the flares put folks off the freeway. behind me coming into the screen you see northbound 880 completely stopped, heading north from about mission boulevard. now, we see the speed sensors change over the last couple of minutes, trying to get these folks to exit to mission, take 680 instead of 880 and get back over, you can also take fremont boulevard, warm springs boulevard and also dixon landing road and avoid the backup. it's a fluid situation as far as the cars in the backup but we know the closure will last for at least an hour. chp is on scene doing an investigation and what it sounds like is there was a pedestrian on the freeway. there's n coming out of milpitas and in closure for northbound 808 toward fremont. toward the rest of the bay, the rest of the commute moves smoothly, vianey,'ll send it ov

developing today's weather. >> definitely a rough start on the roads out there. everybody, please be safe. right now, our current temperatures once again waking up to some 30s this morning for the north bay. 31 degrees in santa rosa, 37 in napa. we're actually running a few degrees warmer in other areas, including oakland and hayward, 40s right now. we have big changes ahead and we're already starting to notice that increase in cloud cover, that is the first sign of big changes to come in weather. so temperature trend we'll top out in the 50s, but i am tracking rain and this is going to be our first rainfall of the year, just in time for your weekend forecast. i'll have the details on that, coming up shortly. back to you. >> vianey, thanks. a shocking and frightening experience for a local nurse, while she was jogging on a popular east bay trail. she said she was attacked by this woman you see here. this is new video that could help investigators track her down. the nurse says it happened during her morning run, just a y. >> not only was she

beaten, she says she was bitten by her attacker, who had two dogs. >> reporter: this is the bite mark the jogger showed police. >> it was pretty obvious those were not canine bites but rather human teeth. >> reporter: human teeth marks on the forearm of a woman who told east bay regional park police she had been bitten by a woman as she was finishing up her run thursday morning. >> in addition to the bite, there was also a certain amount of punching and kicking, when the dog owner had dragged this girl, stopped her on the track on the trail. >> reporter: this all happened around 10:00 a.m., when the woman claims she was running near oakland city stables on the goldenrod trail near skyline boulevard when she noticed two dogs and a woman. one of the dogs attempted to g.te her. the dog stopped. >> reporter: she continued running. on her way at this video,

following her at a distance, trying to entice her to turn around, but that didn't work. police are investigating this as a violent response from a dog owner who took exception to her animal being pepper sprayed. elizabeth abram is at the stables daily with her horse viva. she says there is a problem with dogs off leash but this alleged attack is unbelievable. >> and obviously crazy that she bit her. that's just absurd and kind of scary behavior for a human. understandable for a dog, but not for a human. >> reporter: cheryl hurd, "today in the bay." this morning, a plea for help from investigators in the east bay. they've now identified the woman found in the altamont landfill on new year's eve, as 23-year-old karina banta. they want to know when she was last seen alive. the landfill is near marsh creek park, just outside of livermore. investigators believe banta wge

warranty, 20 of them. he figured a new refrigerator was the solution but samsung said no, so he mailed his case to us. we contacted samsung and robert says it offered him a full refund, more than three grand, so he could go out and buy a new refrigerator. the company didn't explain what happened with those 20-plus service calls, but samsung told us it will "carefully review mr. kimball's experience in an effort to constantly improve our processes." we think that's a key part of the resolution here. yes, speaking up time-consuming, but companies might not even know unless that have kinks to work out, customerse photos and documents just like robert did. should you hit a brick wall, you're trying to solve a consumer problem, maybe we can offer a boost. the number is 888-996-tips or online at nbcbayarea.com/responds.
