4:32 am
getting in out of livermore, east 580 was closed until just about 20 minutes ago. looks like everything cleared within the last 15. speeds are back. your commute direction just started slowing about 90 seconds ago. a little bit of slowing developing, laura. over to you. thank you very much. we do have some breaking news that we're covering from overnight for you, a deadly shooting outside of a 7-eleven in east contra costa county. police tell us a man and woman inside a car were shot on buchanan. the woman who was the passenger was found dead at the scene. the driver shot several times, taken to a local hospital with life threatening wounds. police have not released any information about a suspect or motive. this is antioch's sixth homicide of 2020 on pace for the number of 2019 when the city had 12. the world's biggest covid-19

vaccine study is beginning. the u.s. trial that includes 30,000 people to see if that shot really works. now californians will help in this research. this is from uc san diego. they will also take part in this. that trial is based on a vaccine prototype developed by moderna, a pharmaceutical company. ucsd is one of three participating trial sites in the region. experts planned to expect to enroll about 500 people. in the meantime in the bay area covid-19 cases are surging. alameda county now with more than 10,000 cases. the most of all counties. in all the bay area with more than 46,000 cases. santa cruz is officially on the state's watch list. that means that likely a lot of things will start to close if they don't remain on that list, or if they remain on the list. eight of the counties are still on the governor's watch list here in the bay area. the only one that remains off is
4:34 am
san mateo. you see it right here in the yellow. any county on the watch list for three or more days must close several types of businesses. indoor gyms and churches. also indoor malls and hair salons. >> cleanup will continue from oakland's courthouse where protesters on saturday night smashed windows, spray painted and set fire to one of the entrances. protesters targeted the federal courthouse. the night ended in chaos after starting as a rally in portland. some believe the activists went too far. >> on peaceful people and the city of oakland, like i said, trump can play this all the way up until november 3rd. >> mayor libby schaaf said we celebrate passionate protests,
4:35 am
but oaklanders need to know when they attend protests after dark, they may be providing cover for agitators who are more intent on stoking unrest than advancing racial justice. protesters clashed with federal officers and someone was shot. that shooting happened near the epicenter of the protests. authorities detained two people. a victim survived. it's not clear if that victim it tied to the protest. in austin, texas, a driver who shot and killed an armed black lives matter protester saturday night is cooperating with investigators. they say the man who died was carrying a rifle, and the driver called police shortly after firing and then taking off telling police someone had pointed a gun at him. gilroy strong -- the phrase showing the resilience of a community struck by tragedy at last year's gilroy garlic festival. it started at the park which was
4:36 am
packed with people enjoying the last day of the garlic festival. nearly a year later the community held a moment of silence to remember the three people killed. the group leadership gilroy put on a small festival to show the community that in the wake of this tragedy they are gilroy strong. >> for the community and the victi victims' families. >> this year instead of having a variety of garlic treats, the event had an aztec group perform a memorial dance and raise money for nonprofits who usually help out at the festival. no festival this year, but things are still full steam ahead for 2021. we spoke with the president of the gilroy festival association, tom kleine. many in the community really hope that this year's festival would be a big part of the healing process.
4:37 am
but kleine reaffirming this is just a small hiccup in the process. >> i think that process is looking forward to 2021. using our resources to get to that part and being able to support our 150 charities and have that celebration of garlic again. that's what everyone is really looking forward to. the healing process is part of that. >> cline also added that the community, businesses, and all the charities that participate and benefit from the festival are ready for its return. of course we will have extensive coverage from gilroy over the next few days as the community marks one year since that festival shooting. at 5:00 the mother of kayleigh salazar, the teen shot and killed, speaks to our damian trujillo about the plans to honor her and the difficult year they faced. at 6:00 raj mathai with the
