be fixed, dr. waxman and his staff hired an answering service, and that cost a whopping $2,800s. so dr. waxman asked at&t to pay for that service since the phone company took so long to transfer service to his new location. dr. waxman didn't get an answer, that's when he asked us for help. it took four months of back and forth, at&t agreed to credit the clinic $3,036.11. that's the cost of the answering service plus at&t's charges for the month the line was down. we asked at&t what happened, but it didn't say. got a problem with your phone carrier, call us any time. 888-996-tips if your phone doesn't work, go online to nbcbayarea.com/responds. >> very good. here are the stories we're working on for 6:30. panic overnight in major cities like new york and chicago.

interchange and the mihm it's iin nimitz. the bay bridge toll plaza, meterimeter i metering lights are on. highway 29, that has just reopened. so now we only have one traffic alert at the san mateo bridge. >> let's get you out the door and ready for the day with this beautiful sunrise over walnut creek. we've seen a few more clouds moving in. those clouds will be clearing out today. we're going to enjoy some cooler temperatures. so look at our temperature trend throughout the day, reaching the upper 70s. overall the bay area, we're coming down in some spots about ten degrees bow low yesterdaelo. we'll talk about what's ahead in six minutes. we begin with what's on americans minds this morning safety for themselves and others

after the shootings in gilroy, el paso and dayton. >> some communities are feeling edgy. and that can cause panic-filled moments. look at the pandemonium that happened in new york's times square last night. people just running after what they thought sounded like gunshots. listen to this witness. >> people were screaming and crying, climbing over each other. everyone thought there was a shooter coming down the street. and i thought i was going to watch my daughter get shot down in front of me. >> you can imagine their panic. one person heard what they thought was gunfire, but it was a motorcycle backfiring. one person was hurt in the chaos but is expected to be okay. in chicago, reports of shots fired at walmart had people rushing in. this happened in bedford park. shoppers reported hearing several shots but only a single shell casing was found. no injuries were reported. tensions running high in

gilroy a little more than a week after a mass shooting shook that small community. tonight gilroy residents will gather for another large-scale event. roz plater is there. >> it's been a traumatic week for everybody. we're out here where this rodeo will be taking place, this is off dunlap avenue here. this will be the first real test of whether or not people feel safe and comfortable enough to come out in a large-scale crowd. that starts at 6:00 tonight. it kicks off with a barrel race. about 6,500 people are expected to come out to watch the bucking broncos and other attractions. the event raises money for community projects and scholarships, but law enforcement will have a beefed up presence here especially

around the perimeter of the event. the tragedy at the garlic festival is so fresh, it's unclear how many people will attend. on another front we're learning that the recent mass shootings could have an impact on tourism as well. several countries are advising their citizens that america is not safe because of gun violence. those new warnings say gun violence could happen anywhere in the u.s. but visitors should be extra careful. many say they know about the dangers, even though their families are worried. >> just be careful. >> it did cross my mind. >> now those warnings urge tourists to avoid large crowds, popular venues and popular attractions. also now in terms of trying to deal with gun violence tonight, eric swalwell is having a community forum on how to deal with gun violence and domestic terrorism. that forum starts at 6:30 at the hayward city council chambers. live in gilroy, roz plater, nbc bay area news. >> thanks.

we're staying on top of everything that is happening in gilroy for you. the investigation coming into focus on this shooting. the focus is increasingly pointing to hate as a primary motive. the fbi yesterday announced the shooting is now being investigated as a case of domestic terrori investigators say the teenage gunman had a list of targets including places of worship and political organizations. the fbi says it's now reaching out to those listed, but the groups are not being publicly identified. >> we're striving to find several things -- what, if any, ideology he settled on. who, if anyone, he may have been in contact with regarding the ideologies. who, if anyone, helped him or had advanced knowledge of his intentions. >> at this point, investigators say it's too early to know if the gunman should be considered a white supremacist, but they say he was interested in violent ideologies.

still no verdict in the ghost ship warehouse fire trial. today marks one week since deliberations started. the nine women and three men are deciding if the defendants are guilty of 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter. if convicted they face up to 39 years in prison. for the next few days firefighters will keep a close eye on the area where a weekend grass fire burned near clayton. the marsh fire burned more than 750 acres after it started early saturday morning a s a series o fires. a contra costa police department will have eyes over head. san pablo police have throw new drones. they can stay in the air for more than an hour. they were unveiled at the local national night out last night. happening today at 49ers camp in santa clara, the team will pay tribute to dwight

>> j.j. watt, 290. she have let that boy break the seat on that bike. let's get you out to the san mateo bridge, not broken but the commute is impacted by this broken fencing. we are here, tow truck pulled -- this tow truck pulled this tow truck from the side of the road. that was hooked up to this fencing that it took out. these four folks are trying desperately to roll all of this cyclone fencing that was dragged out of the marsh back off of the roadway. once they clear that i'm hoping they can clear 92 eastbound. you notice this medium-sized tow truck? it has to turn around and go the other way. that's why as we look back at our camera, they may have to stop those folks from coming into that area. we see the eastbound flow coming towards us. that's the issue right there.

the traffic flows nicely for one lane. that's the major incident. highway 29 has reopened from the earlier fire. there. >> that little pink was so kar es kar -- kari's outfit would tie into the show. >> we are getting closer to the weekend. let's kick it off friday with the san jose jazz festival. friday and saturday, the best days to get out there and enjoy the live music. it will be in the low 80s with high temperatures. if you can find a spot in the shade it will feel much nicer with breezy winds. our overall saturday forecast is in the 60s, the bay reaching 79. 84 will be the high inland on saturday. as we check out our kickoff to football season. we're enjoying a preseason game with the 49ers at levi stadium. we'll have partly cloudy skies,
