home from a completely different tenant who had moved out. the suspect, who berkeley police just released his name, 40-year-old nathan holman, allegedly locked the man out. he went back to grab another box of items important to this tenant even though he warned him not to go inside. >> a few minutes later he came running out the side of the house. both were bleeding profusely, and he had been cut by an unusual kind of weapon. >> the owner of the home jack sawyer. the victim is recovering from cuts to both hands and possibly to his legs. this all started just before 6:00 yesterday. it finally ended after midnight

over the mueller report. michigan republican justin amash is the first to say president trump behavior is impeachable conduct for trying to obstruct the special counsel's russia investigation. >> well, it's about time a republican stepped to the table. and i wish every republican and democrat, if they have not read the mueller report, read it. >> reporter: in a series of gets amash said the president's actions meet the threshold for impeachment and attorney general william barr deliberately misrepresented mueller's report in his summary. president trump fired back on twitter calling him a total lightweight and a loser. >> i respect him. i think it's a courageous statement. but i believe that to make a case you just don't have the elements. >> there is now bipartisan

support for really understanding the seriousness of what is in the mueller report. >> a key house democrat said the amash criticism does not make a bipartisan case. >> what may be pushing us in the direction of impeachment has less to do with justin amash and more to do with the fact that the administration is in a massive obstructionism campaign. >> they are locked in a battle. craig boswell, nbc news, washington. 5:05. hundreds of teachers in union city and hayward will hit the picket lines at 7:00 this morning. in the first day of the strike that the new haven school district. teachers and the district are still far apart in negotiations. all schools will still be open today using substitute teachers and administrative staff to teach. >> we were confident that the money is there to have the

package that we describe. but the biggest changes the district and administrators must know is they need to change their priorities. >> our teachers are the highest paid in the county. we're very proud of that. >> the teachers union is demanding a 10% raise the next two years. they had originally asked for 20% but have since come down. the district says this would cost $20 million. it is offering 3% raise this year and 1% raise next year. >> antioch police are now trying to determine the relationship between a woman found dead in her home and the man detained in connection with her death. officers discovered the body of the 30-year-old woman early ned morning at a home on big horn court in antioch. they are not saying how she died, but they do believe it's homicide. they are questioning a 32-year-old man also from antioch. so far they are not confirming or denying that charges will be

filed. >> in southern alabama, a manhunt is under way after one officer is shot and killed. two others were injured. this is at a trailer park just outside montgomery. the suspect identified as grady wilkes. the chief of police in auburn said he will do whatever it takes to bring him into custody. >> it's just a terrible thing. we're just, you know, trying to be there with our officers and those families right now. >> reporter: the other two officers did not suffer life-threatening injuries. well, weather watchers will be closely watching the skies in parts of the country especially in the midsection today because of a rare weather alert is out in parts of west texas and oklahoma where people are facing extremely high risks four tornados>> today's designation is the highest issued for that area in two years.

many schools are shutting down today in anticipation of those tornados. >> over the weekend, two super storm cells. storms ripped through parts of central texas spawning multiple tornados. not just rain and thunder, but hail. take a look at this. one of the viewers in san hoe braved the wild weather to send us this video from yesterday. and the wet weekend weather triggering incredible sights. this is near the golden gate bridge. as you can see right there a beautiful sight to see. and scary, too. >> from a distance. it didn't help the contra costa county fair. attendance was way down with wash-out conditions in antioch, especially yesterday afternoon. the heavy rain kept people at

mike traffic tease right now at 5:14, it's a nice start to the day. we are seeing breaks in the klaus as the sun rises over san jose. we're going to get a lot of sunshine today and a nice break. temperatures stay cool. low 50s to start out and some upper 50s at noon. we'll eventually reach the low 60s today. but that's still much below normal. we'll talk about what's ahead as the next round of rain comes in by tomorrow. that's coming up in less than five minutes. >> and traffic smoothing out right here under that willow overpass where all the flashing lights finish up for the overnight road work. smoothing out now. how the rest of that commute shapes up for your early commute.

and good morning. very happy monday to you. the head of the feds speaks today. that can certainly move markets. tesla is at a two and a half year low. ceo elon musk sent out a memo on thursday, warned employees he would be examining every expense and expenditure personally. the company had its first full day of trading today after a nice pop on friday, opening for the first time at 16 bucks, rising to almost $24. they're based in san francisco and deal with cloud computing. you remember last week the u.s. announced american companies would not be allowed to do business with chinese telecom company huawei. google says it is limiting the use of its android operating system on huawei firms. it is rare more americans to oss huawei phones. the u.s. government says you shouldn't.

but they are popular overseas. the company accused of close ties to the chinese government. the ceo made a rare statement to journalists denying huawei has ties to the communist deposit and denying his equipment helps chinese spy agencies. i'll have the highest ranking officer here next sunday morning's "press:here". google for its part reassuring huawei phone owners. they can still download apps from google play and get security updates as well. this does not affect many were americans. if you are using a huawei phone, the u.s. government it's a terrible idea to use it and recommends you not. it is not illegal to use it. well, this is finally over. 10 years after it started. no spoilers. we can tell you that several of your co-workers might be calling in sick or maybe late. the study retkeubgts 10 million

americans are actually expected to skip work today. another 16 million will be late or less productive than usual. it has cost khroeurs $3 billion in lost productivity since the show started. another production gaffe. remember how the cup of coffee was spotted. this time an eagle eye viewer caught a water bottle during one of the final scenes of the last night's episode. wow. you really have to look hard to notice. >> that might be okay, though. these days we say use the reusable water bottles. but a while back they used the disposable ones. >> the good news is we have a lot of "game of thrones" watchers in our newsroom.

all at work this morning. >> they're all here. >> if you say they are losing $3 billion, i'm sure all the companies are happy it's over now. >> true. >> okay. what's the next show? >> all right. we're waking up this morning. we're fine. we're wide awake. we weren't up late watching that. >> here's a live look outside at sfo. i'm showing you this because it's all clear. hopefully no travel issues today. and we measured quite a bit of rain over the weekend. 48-hour storm totals. over an inch in san jose. mt. tam, almost 3 inches. that does not include the storms we had last week. ben lomond, over 2 inches there. perkily had an 1.76.

petaluma 1.5. significant rain especially for this time of year. we may be inching closer to some of the wettest mays we have had in the bay area. we get a chance to dry out. today in martinez, low 50s to start. 66 at 1:00 today. and we are seeing those clear skies now. but the next storm is developing and continuing to move closer to the bay area as we go into the day tomorrow. rain late tonight. showers in the north bay, as well as san francisco. it may be heavy as we may be awakened by rain moving n. kind of some off and on rain, scattered showers, potential of even more thunderstorms going into tomorrow afternoon. this gradually tapers wednesday morning. this doesn't look as heavy as we have seen.

there will be a break on wednesday. another chance on thursday. friday is dry. and you see the trend there. rain pretty much every other day, or at least the chance of it all across the bay area. so i'll give you more updates on that. mike, you're still tracking a slow section in san jose. >> that's right. we average speeds through time. that's the tail end of the merge. we may still have the vehicles on the shoulder. again, if it doesn't clear in the next five minutes, i'll let you know. oakland southbound 880 at 16th near the off-ramp there is a crash on the shoulder. no lanes blocked. a nice drive at bay point. even the cut through out of brentwood, discovery bay.

safe. >> this all happened on saturday. that's when 8-year-old celine sabaca was walking with her mother in fort worth. a doorbell camera caught the mom being thrown from the suspect's car. and then eight hours later, police tracked down the little girl and the suspect at a suburban fort worth hotel. they were tipped off by two men who actually went out on their own to find that vehicle matching the police description. >> i wasn't sure. if i thought i wasn't going to find her, i probably wouldn't have gone. >> that is one of the two men who went looking for the car. the suspect, 51-year-old michael webb is facing multiple felony charges. and 5:25 right now. new for you this morning, no joke here. a former comedian is being inaugurated today as the new ukrainian president.

>> he high-fived and celebrated and took selfies. they welcomed him ahead of the ceremony. the newly elected president disbanded parliament after that. he has no previous political experience. he won the election with 73% of the vote. later today on the "ellen" show reese witherspoon stops by. >> she said a new legally blonde 3 may be in the works. >> there are rumors. is that happening? >> well, we're meeting about it. i don't know. do you want to see legally blonde 3? >> so the movies had a lot of fans. reese also talked about season 2 of "big little lies", which is based in monterey.

commute. kari has her eyes on the skies. a lot coming up. you're watching "today in the bay".

and a good monday morning. taking a look at our radar. the rain has been coming through this past weekend. are we in the clear just yet. no. meteorologist kari hall in just a second. i'm marcus washington. >> winter is just hanging on around here. not just stormy, but it has been

cold as well. let's check in with kari. >> it feels cold this morning. even in between the storms. we take a live look at san jose. mostly cloudy. you can see the sun trying to peek through the clouds. a mix of sun and clouds. starting out in the 40s. a slow warmup as we go throughout the day. the next storm is coming in. i will track with a timeline of the rain coming up. mike, you are checking on the slowing through san jose. >> making sure it was going to clear up. 87, the earlier crash. slowing did clear. it took an extra two minutes to update. slowing on 101, which we typically expect. clear from the south bay. in fact, cleared out of the roadways for all the major freeways. a crash westbound highway 4 over on the shoulder past willow pass off-ramp. we'll track that extra closely, as well as the bay bridge toll plaza. the backup has formed.

>> teachers locked in a bitter labor dispute, walking off the job. leaving parents and students concerned. just as the school year is wrapping up. tell us what folks there can expect in just a couple of hours. bob? >> reporter: classes will go on at logan high school in union city and the other schools here at new haven unified school district just without their teachers, as they go on strike at 7:00 this morning. the union that represents the 600 teachers in this district, taking to the picket lines today. the 12 schools will remain open by using substitute teachers and admin to teach.

it will be enrichment day not a typical lesson plan. the stumbling block to an agreement is teachers pay. >> we are very confident that the money is there to have the package that we describe. but the biggest changes the district, the administrators must know, they need to change their priorities. >> the district did move. with we did add some language that gives the teachers an ongoing raise if some money from the state comes through. >> they are demanding a 10% raise this year and the next. they have asked for 20% initially but have since come down. the current offer would cost $20 million. a % raise next year, and the additional ongoing raise that

you heard mentioned in a sound bite. the district told us they are proud that the teachers in their district are the highest paid in the county. no word on how long the strike will last. but the district is hoping a decision is made as the end of the school year is fast approaching. >> thanks so much, bob. 5:34 for you right now. police say a female student was approached over the weekend by security escort service imposter. this happened at about 1:00 in the morning saturday. that's when a blue subaru forester pulled up next to the woman. the driver identified himself as the driver for 5 shore, a security staff hired to protect students. he told the female student he was there to pick her up, but she never requested a ride. the subaru didn't have any markings indicating it was a 5 shore vehicle. the woman did not get into the

car. stanford police said all are white and visibly marked. authorities have not yet identified the teenage girl who died in a deadly crash early yesterday morning in concord. it happened a little before 1:00 a.m. on kirker pass and clearbrook drive near the concord pavilion. the 18-year-old driver struck a utility pole. she was from pittsburg. the cause is still under investigation. happening today, san rafael leaders debate a plan to become the latest city to ban flavored tobacco. they are weighing two options, one to outright ban it and another to allow it in adult-only stores. that meeting is tonight at city hall. >> 5:35. it's graduation season. one speaker yesterday inspired graduates with action. a promise to pay off all of their student loan debt, every single graduate. isn't that amazing? kris sanchez joins us with more

of this promise and the bay area connection as well. >> you guys have spoken at graduations. and i have never been to a graduation with that financial promise that could really change those graduates's lives. it happened at morehouse college where billionaire robert f. smith delivered the commencement address. there was definitely reason to listen to what he had to say anyway. smith did more than give the graduates advice. he gave the graduates financial freedom. >> i have a challenge to you, alumni. this is my class, 2019. and my family is making a grant to eliminate their student loans. >> i really saw it as a liberation gift.

robert smith essentially said to our students, i'm going to make you free to follow your passions. >> so you can see the reaction from the students in the crowd there. it is estimated that this student loan wipeout promise will cost smith's foundation $40 million. while he challenged alumni to step up, he also looked back at the students and told them to go out and do something good. smith also, by the way, received an honorary degree from morehouse college and made a small $1 million donation to the college last year. that's remarkable in and of itself. but $40 million in student loan debt wiped t. "the wall street journal" found colleges graduated with 30% more debt. and student death hit record levels in 2018. if student loan debt is the only

way to go to college. you go anyway. i graduated. i worked it off. but to walk away like that? my dad would have been just crying. >> i think i saw articles. one guy had a student in morehouse graduating next year. he said maybe he will come back next year and speak as well. >> parents have been working so hard to pay off all of that>> even just one of the students, just to walk away debt free. >> isn't that amazing? >> amazing>> what a gift to give a graduate. >> i need my khreudz to go ids >> only your male son. it's a male college. >> equal opportunity. thanks for a good story. sharks fans, listen up. the sharks face the ultimate ultimatum in sports. it's win or tkpwgo home. if you happened to be in the shark tank yesterday or watched here on nbc bay area, game 5 was

tough to swallow. they take a 3-2 game lead in the conference final. game 6 is back in st. louis tomorrow night. okay. so, look, we're trying not to jinx anything here with warriors fans. but the nba team has never been 3-0 in a nba playoff series and gone on to lose the series. >> that's what the warriors have in their hip pocket. tonight's game is in portland. that's where they came back to win game 3 saturday night. had some big tv ratings for the conference finals game. one more win and the warriors are back for the fifth year straight. nice to see. >> hoping for the best. looking over here toward the home of the warriors. oakland moving smoothly. hope everything stays good for

t the fans. we travel from the south bay up toward contra costa county. just a crash on the shoulder. highway 4, willow pass, no real surprises there. richmond-san rafael bridge, more traffic flowing as the sun is coming up. that looks nice right now. >> it does. so sun there. snow in the sierra. take a look at this. squaw valley saw another five inches of snow saturday night alone. higher elevations at the ski resort so far have seen nearly 60 feet of snow this season. thanks to all of this snow, they are working it up there. the ski resorts will stay hope at squaw through july. amazing to be out on the water. some people put their boats in the water already and they are covered in snow>> that is water there. >> give it a few weeks. >> a lot of people making plans. >> yeah.

>> memorial weekend. let's start to make some plans as we go throughout the week. still off and on showers. at least the temperatures will get milder. notice on saturday there will be a chance of showers nearby. i'm keeping it in there because we will still have some disturbances and storms moving across the region going into the weekend. so saturday we will have a chance of some of the showers moving through. it does look like it stays dry in the tri-valley. our temperatures cool off. notice the drop in the temperatures by sunday. looking at squaw valley this morning, it senior beautiful. and there will still be some rain and snow in the forecast. as we go into this upcoming weekend as well. i will track all of it for you, helping to make memorial day plans. and our temperature trend coming up in three minutes. thanks, kari. coming up, planning on hitting the road this coming memorial weekend. you may experience a little less pain at the pump.

new numbers coming up next. >> angry president trump after new allegations in the "new york times". i'll walk you through it when "today in the bay" continues.

>> right now at 5:44, it's nice to take a break from all the rain. we can see the rain that was left over on that rooftop in walnut creek. as you wake up and see a mix of sun and clouds. we'll have cool temperatures, upper 40s, rising to the mid-60s by noon today.

still a cool day and some sunshine. but rain is back tomorrow. i'll talk about that coming up in less than five minutes. yeah. san mateo bridge moving smoothly. the foreground you see traffic. fog in the hills. talking about any other patches of fog and whatever else you find as you get started on your commute. >> thanks, mike and kari. 5:45 right now. one contra costa city is cracking down on false burglary calls. out of 2,100 calls last year, only five turned out to be real crimes. residents and business owners face a fine for the fourth and fifth time emergency crews respond to false alarm calls in one year. it goes up to $250 for every time after that >> quarter to 6. good news if you plan to travel for memorial day. gas prices are falling.

according to gas buddy, prices dropped four cents per gallon the past week, now averaging $4.07. oakland, $4.09. in san francisco, the average is six cents higher than that. californians pay the second price in the nation, approaching 34 cents per gallon. the governor's office is looking into new findings that california may be at the percent of suppliers manipulating prices. >> a "new york times" investigation has hit a nerve with president trump. >> scott mcgrew, the "times" says bank workers found suspicious transactions in the president's accounts. >> yeah. accounts managed by his business and accounts of his son-in-law jared kushner as well. the "times" says it talked to five bankers or former bankers at deutsche bank, and it led to this headline. the bankers said software alerted them to suspicious transactions in trump and kushner's account. then it indicated possibly money laundering. they took their concerns to bank managers, but the managers did not pass the concerns onto

government authorities. mr. trump responded with several tweets this morning calling this news article fake and the "new york times" an enemy of the people. in the tweet he denies the money in those accounts came from russia. it is worth noting deutsche bank itself has been under investigation for russian money laundering. jared kushner's company is completely made up and totally false. the "new york times" continues to create dots that don't connect. over the weekend, a congressman from michigan said he thought president trump should face impeachment. justin amash listed the reasons based on the mueller report. up in of the allegations are new, if you read the report. but it is remarkable because this man is a republican. he didn't get much support from his party. republican senator mitt romney, who held a press conference warning americans not to elect trump, called a mash courageous but now says the time is not now

for impeachment. he did encourage people to read the mueller report. i'm going to make a note here. itch cannot get this touch screen to work. i don't mean to keep this up. i want to talk about iran. also over the weekend, the president threatened to end iran. he said that in a sweet. this is a significant change in policy. the u.s. has repeatedly assured the iranian people, if not with them, it is with their government certainly. not with the entire country's existence. a change in policy. we'll be watching what happens in washington today. you can find me on twitter@scottmcdrew. >> some may be waking up a little sore especially if they did a personal best in bay to breakers. the 108 edition brought tens of thousands of people. they took off for the seven mile trek to ocean beach. some wore ponchos, some wore

costumes, including flamingos, fairies, a dinosaur out there. >> quite a variety. >> a nice way to say. >> the weather held up at least in that moment. >> how much we measure in mt. tam, we have the most. nearly 3 inches of rain. this is in the middle of may. we are supposed to be drying out. we are talking about two and three inches for one storm. this is over the past 48 hours. ben lomond, 2 inches. pet luna over an inch and a half. san francisco over an inch of rain there. and three-quarters of an inch almost in san jose.

getting the kids to school in concord, low 50s. temperatures reaching into the mid-60s. 66 in concord. 67 in san jose. oakland 62. and 67 in santa rosa for the high temperature. with the cool start you want to make sure you are wearing something nice and warm. we have been talking about our winter-like weather. we do still need a coat. by early to late tonight, showers moving into the north bay. rain off and on from tonight and all throughout the day tomorrow. even a chance that a few of these little cells could produce thunderstorms as we have seen

with this active weather. and it gradually starts to taper going into wednesday morning. we should have a little bit of a break there. still rain in the forecast even going into the weekend. you see the pattern pretty much every other day there is a chance of rain. mike, you're starting out with a look at the bay bridge. >> pretty much every day we have backup at the bay bridge as far as the monday through friday commute. that's right on schedule. you do notice fastrak lanes are visibly moving. that's good news. any time we can see that, a great sign for the volume of traffic. we are looking at the live look south 101 approaching san pedro. a little haze but that's all we see. the road weather index registering fog near the shot, heading north over highway 37, in through the rest of the north bay. just a note for you. no problems reported to chp. contra costa county looks great.
