6:02 am
loud at first he thought the vehicle had struck his apartment building. the truck wound up flipped over completely upside down and witnesses say the driver just took off running. >> the guy ended up getting out of the truck that flipped and took off running. how, i don't know, because it looked like a pretty bad accident. >> reporter: police tell us one person was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, so that is the good news in all of this. of course police are still investigating all of this. we don't know about charges, and we'll give thaw information as we get it. for now we are live in san jose, i'm roz plater for "today in the bay." >> all right, roz, thank you. 6:0 6:02 for you right now. president trump heads to france tonight for this weekend's g7 summit which he says should be g8. russia was kicked out five years ago and president trump wants them back. tracie potts has two personalities to watch out for at this meeting.

6:04 am
>> the case has yet to be made out for russia to return to the g7. >> reporter: that's boris johnson, britain's new prime minister. some call him europe's version of trump. >> they would probably gate long like a house on fire, or they will pretend to. >> reporter: the world's seven largest economies are expected to end this meeting without a joint statement for the first time ever. tracie potts, nbc news, washington. and coming up, some of the top democrats running for president are descending upon san francisco. at 6:30, a look at who will show up in person and brand new perspective from our political analyst. new this morning, anti-semitic fliers showing up in the north bay and novato city leaders along with police and school leaders and the community say they are united against hate. residents reported seeing the fliers near storefronts in the downtown area near their safeway store there and at least a dozen were posted on the san marin high school campus.
