>> watch where you walk. right now at 6:00, deadly gunfire overnight in san francisco. it happened in a part of the city already seeing the big spike in crime. the new details police are revealing this morning. >> there are a lot of areas, things we can speculate that may or may not have occurred. what we know is this was a very vicious person. >> an accused serial killer due in court. ahead in a live report chilling new details that have police convinced the suspect captured during his latest mission to kill. plus, three weeks until election day. an important measure hangs in the balance. the major change proposition 1 would make to the state constitution and the battle over reproductive rights this is "today in the bay" streaming live on roku, amazon fire, apple tv and online. here we go tuesday morning getting you up and ready to go. thank you for joining us and allowing us to be a participate of your morning. i'm marcus washington.

>> and i'm laura garcia. we'll check in with mike in a bit but let's check on the forecast. things are heating up again. it will start to warm up for our inland areas today in a spot like dublin where we start out nice and cool. we'll see those temperatures heading jum ward even though we'll see a lot of clouds throughout much of the morning. we'll go from 56 degrees now to mid-70s at noon and continue to climb from there as we head for 84 degrees in dublin. in santa rosa, 82 degrees. 78 in san jose. it's definitely going to be much hotter tomorrow as we reach the peak of those temperatures more widespread 90s in the inland valleys. we'll talk more about that coming up and, mike, you've been watching a couple key spots for the commute. the metering lights will turn on. the buildup at 6:00 a.m. all those feeder routes showing into berkeley and in toward the

maze. up in the north bay it highway 4 slows outof antioch and a slower drive. walnut creek will pick up the volume. we do have a crash on 680 may be clearing. mission getting more traffic. back to you. >> thank you, mike. we are following breaking news. a deadly shooting in san francisco. it happened a little after midnight at turk and taylor streets not far from the warfield theater in the tenderloin. an unidentified person died. police are not saying what led up to the shooting. the investigation closed turk street between market and taylor. in a matter of hours the man stockton police are calling a serial killer will appear for the first time before a judge. >> "today in the bay's" bob redell joins us in our newsroom this morning. bob, law enforcement talked about the case, but did they have a motive in it? stockton's police chief tells us they don't know yet why

wesley brownlee allegedly shot and killed five people in stockton and one in oakland. there's also a seventh victim in stockton who survived. a judge will arraign brownlee in a stockton courtroom. that's when we'll learn what charges he faces and whether or not the d.a. will charge him with a capital crime. stockton police say after hundreds of tips they found and followed wesley brownlee as he searched for another victim. police say he was hunting in the same neighborhood where the other six shootings took place. according to stockton's police chief, he was dressed in black and armed with a handgun. >> the person was in a park that may have been seen by the suspect. we intervened. >> reporter: brownlee's lack of violent crime, that kind of history, means there might be a hearing to determine if he's competent to stand trial. this expert says it's unusual to

see someone with low drug offender cases progress to multiple murders that have nothing to do with drug deals. a psychotic break may also help explain the suspect's motivation or at least his state of mind. laura? >> so interesting. thank you, bob. jurors later this morning will resume deliberations of the fate of paul flores. he is accused of murdering san luis obispo student kristin smart. the jury came back with a verdict against his father. that verdict is on hold until a verdict is reached in both cases. ruben flores is being charged with being an accessory to that murder. >> decision 2022 and the first for california voters on the november ballot. voters three weeks from today will decide on an abortion-related constitutional amendment. proposition 1 would make

california the first state with a provision protecting abortion. as "today in the bay's" ginger conejero saab explains, that measure would alter reproductive rights in other ways. >> reporter: reproductive rights are could have had in california under the state's reproductive privacy act which says that everyone has a fundamental right to privacy including the right to contraception and abortion up to the point of viability. the very premise of the state's protection and reproductive freedom is covered under privacy, the same interpretation used in roe v. wade. since the u.s. supreme court overturned that landmark case this year, advocates say existing case law is not enough to protect abortion or the right to use or refuse contraception. prop 1 would explicitly include abortion and contraception. prop 1 is currently endorsed by big democrats including senator hillary clinton who paid a visit to the bay area in support of the measure. but those who oppose it say not

so fast. >> proposition 1 is so extreme by allowing late-term abortion up and to the point of birth that we have seen pro-choice politicians and pro-choicers join our coalition. we even had this news conference on the steps of the california state capitol last week showcasing our diverse and broad coalition. >> reporter: arguments against prop 1 include it will be expensive for taxpayers to foot the bill for sanctuary abortions. the proposition's language is vague and ambiguous and is interpreted to allow for late-term abortions. >> if the intention is to protect abortion rights in the state of california then revoke the current proposition 1 language as it is written and instead introduce language that reflects california's existing abortion law. >> there have been a number of bills signed by the governor that pay for abortions for people who are fleeing from their more restrictive states, and this is nothing to do with

proposition 1. and concern about viability and when abortions may occur, this constitutional amendment does not change existing state law. >> reporter: abortion related measures are not just happening in california but around the country. vermont is also asking its voters to amend its constitution to protect reproductive rights. kansas and kentucky are asking its voters to prevent those rights in their constitution. >> ginger, thank you. we have a special page on our website dedicated to the election with voter guides to help you break down key races. all you have to do is go to nbcbayarea.com/decision2022. >> antioch's mayor signs a new ordinance to help renters struggling in the bay. a new rent control law capping

hikes at 3%. supporters plan to gather together to celebrate. a live look outside celebrating the sun. not just yet. it will be coming up and making a little bit of a comeback as well especially inland. temperatures are going to rise. kari is keeping track of the forecast for us. feels like fall at least in the morning. at least in the morning. this afternoon it will feel more like summer especially as you make your way inland to the south county, heading for the low to mid-80s today and a little bit of a breeze keeps parts of the inner bay fairly mild today. then as you head over to concord, antioch, livermore, 86 degrees. now we are going to see some cooler temperatures still remain near the coastline and in san francisco today in the mission district we're up to 67 degrees. north bay highs anywhere from 60s near the coast to 93 in ukiah.

we see some spots in the 90s. mike, where can we find lower gas prices? >> first, the headline under $5. there's a couple right there. in san jose it's at costco and automation parkway. $4.99. your gas buddy today, oakland, $5.19. express gas. san mateo, $5.17 on palm avenue. mostly 65, where you would expect a slower drive kicking in. not yet across the san mateo bridge. more traffic down past san mateo and the dumbarton bridge. you will see the sensors start to change a bit on the flat section and starting to creep down to foster city.

the same thing for 37. highway 4 saw a lot of traffic starting in pittsburg and now creeping down to 242. the bay bridge, the incline slow and the metering lights are on. slowed there as well. no surprises out of the altamont. good news after an earlier issue. another crash near the dublin interchange. netflix now easing the pain of a breakup. how is that? coming up, we'll tell you how. that new feature meant to help users more easily transfer their most recently watched shows and why some believe it is also foreshadowing a shift from netflix when it comes to sharing pass words. on wall street a rally yesterday and then to the futures to see what holds for today. oh, yeah, that's going to be huge. >> let's keep it in the green. overwhelmed by tourists, ahead of halloween a city known for witchers say too many goblins and ghouls are visiting. stay with us.

prop 27 sends 90% of profits from online sports betting

to out-of-state corporations in places like new york and boston. no wonder it's so popular... out there. yeah! i can't believe those idiots are going to fall for this. 90%! hey mark, did you know california is sending us all their money? suckers. -those idiots! [ laughter ] imagine that, a whole state made up of suckers. vote no on 27. it's a terrible deal for california. we win. you lose.

good tuesday morning to you. 6:13. let's get you ready for school in the east bay. checking out walnut creek where a drop-off time will be 56 degrees. it's a cloudy morning but will be a mostly cloudy afternoon. some peeks of sunshine as our temperatures warm up into the low 80s. you'll notice it will be warmer today and it gets even hotter

tomorrow. we'll check that out in the forecast coming up in a few minutes. and i'm checking out the dublin camera. these headlights are heading west right there toward the dublin interchange just off our screen. we are looking at slower traffic. i think there's recovery. a hit-and-run crash just cleared from lanes. we'll see how it shakes out if it ripples out coming up. good morning. happy tuesday to you. microsoft says it's cutting more staff. now percentage wise it's a very tiny amount, less than 1%. but microsoft is a very big company, so it is a lot of people. look at this. look at the green on the board here. the dow jumped 550 points on monday. in fact, if we put 100 stock prices on this board, 99 of them would be up. take a look at this, showing you this earlier, the futures. traders betting we'll see another rally this morning. now we've seen big moves to the down side as well. it's been very volatile. techcrunch disrupt gets under way. it disrupted itself in the past

years by the pandemic. a lot of startups showing off their ideas. it runs through thursday. mike was telling us about the one gas station in the bay area with less than exception. prices are still high and some reports say the white house is readying another drawdown of the strategic petroleum reserve to try to get gas prices down again. could be around 10 million gallons according to bloomberg which spoke to people in the white house familiar with the matter. we should hear more about how the white house plans to refill the reserve. you have to do that. there's been talk about limiting exports of gasoline keeping it all here but the same insiders say if that happened it wouldn't happen before winter. and nearly 8 million americans have already applied for student loan forgiveness just one day after the website to do so went online. there was a soft launch on the weekend. more than 40 million americans are in debt for their education. laura, we will talk more about that as we talk politics coming

up in 30 minutes. >> thank you, scott. 6:15 right now. netflix is rolling out a new feature called profile transfer. it lets users move personalized recommendations, your viewing history, save games and other settings to a new account. netflix argues it will come in handy for people when they have to transition to a new account if their living circumstances change. so if you break up with someone or moving out of your parents' home. some wonder if it's part of netflix's looming crackdown on password sharing. the company estimates more than 100 million households are using this service through shared accounts. imagine all that money they're missing out on. >> i know. trending this morning one city's wicked warning to stay away ahead of halloween. >> october is considered a busy season in salem, massachusetts. of course because of its connection with the salem witch trials in the 1500s. throngs of people flock in each year ahead of halloween.

the new data showing 276,000 people over the first nine days of the month. so now the leaders are asking the visitors to plan ahead and prep f a frightful crowds. >> it feels more enthusiastic than 2019 right now. there seems to be a lot more people coming in. in october, if youexperience. >> i feel like coming here this time of year is part of the glamour. it's why you come. it's festive and, i mean, i can't foresee us coming at a different time. >> i think people just want to get back outside now. those trends are continuing. leaders say they will see their highest since the pandemic. >> bagpipes, too. >> everybody wants to celebrate there after the pumpkin festival. >> i like to keep it a little more, you know -- >> a lot of people heading to the pumpkin patches.

the weather should be playing nice. >> we're watching to see if there will be a little bit of rain on the pumpkins on saturday, but it does look like it will be cooler. and starting out this morning all dry and mostly cloudy in some spots. a live look at dublin where visibility is all clear. we haven't had issues with fog this morning. but then take a look at our highs and where we're headed for today reaching 77 in mountain view. 77 in san mateo and martinez some low 80s there and upper 80s. check out tomorrow. this is our blast of summer. it's going to hit us with some 90s in morgan hill and san martin. 95 in livermore. 94 in fairfield. and we'll reach into the upper 80s, even some low 90s further to the north. now going into thursday, it starts to come down a little bit. we're still in the upper 80s and low 90s. won't be until the weekend we cool off. while we are talking about 90s here, there is a large area about 93 million people in a

freeze warning for tonight. and this is all of these areas shaded in purple. there are even frost advisories for those areas in blue, so it's going to be a big, deep freeze with some of that cold air making it all the way to the gulf coast where some spots are in the teens for tomorrow morning. what's happening here? we have basically western heat with a large area of high pressure and a big surge in the dip in the jet stream and that's bringing down that cold air. now once that moves out of the way, we are going to see some cooler temperatures coming in for the weekend and possibly a little bit of rain. now saturday's rainfall looks very light and spotty and may just skip us to the east or to the north. we do have a better chance of rain in the forecast next week, more widespread between tuesday and wednesday and it may even bring more sierra snow. that will be something we'll watch very closely but some great news especially in that

extended forecast. in the near term we're still in summer. it's in the upper 80s, low 90s. but then coming back to fall for the weekend and we'll be watching saturday for a chance of a couple of spotty showers for san francisco, we're in the low 70s through thursday and then we'll bring it back to the 60s for the weekend. mike, you're looking at a couple new crashes. i am, kari. they're in the area where volume is building as well in the east bay. the peninsula, no problems. the south bay looking great. looking over here a new crash near the castro valley y just popped up. detail on that hopefully in the next couple of minutes. chp says this crash south 880 down in toward fremont and union city, we do have it right around the exit there. there is some slowing. it looks like it might be attributed to a distraction, perhaps one lane blocked there. over to the dublin interchange did show slowing. it's starting to recould have just after the dublin interchange. reports of a hit-and-run crash came in. no lanes blocked.

looking over here to the area, 580 showing a half hour from grant line over to that interchange. vasco road slows more here through marsh creek down into 580. that major commute is over half an hour now. back to you. >> yellow is better than the red. thanks, mike. 6:21 right now. coming up next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. >> reporter: if you have student loan debt, you might be able to erase as much as $20,000 of it. if you apply. i'm consumer iestigator chris nv

6:23 right now. if you have student loans, the door for forgiveness may finally be open. you may be able to get up to $20,000 wiped clean. >> that sounds like a good thing for a lot of students or graduates. the federal government's application just launched. chris chmura shows us how to apply. >> reporter: the feds don't usually make things easy. luckily uncle sam made the student loan forgiveness application pretty simple. the education department says it only takes five minutes. we did it and that checks out. first, and this might be the hardest part, find your tax return from 2021 or 2020. next, go to studentaid.gov carefully this is what the real home page looks like, a button to start the application is front and center. after you click start the application, you'll see this screen.

at the top it summarizes who qualifies. right after that you type in basic information like your name, date of birth, social security number. next, grab your tax form and scroll down. in this section it's asking you to confirm that your tax status and income qualify. cross reference those. find a scenario that matches. then you're ready to apply. just scroll down and time your name one more time. here you are basically signing it digitally. then check the box and click submit in the bottom right. done. so what happens next? the form says will determine your eligibility and contact you if we need more information. your loan servicer will notify you. we'll have another video right here. >> thanks, chris. it's 6:25 right now. time to help our furry friends in need. new this morning the humane society is hoping its latest push will help to do that teaming up with the ad council for a series of psas called pets and people together. people are being asked to donate

pet food to local food banks that accept it. and if you have any extra cash lying around, you can donate it to your local veterinarian to cover pets' medical costs for those who can't afford it. >> if there are ways we can help bridge those difficult times it is an opportunity for us to step up and that's what's so great about this campaign. >> if you are interested in fostering a pet visit petsandpeopletogether.org. 6:26 right now and the top stories we're following today including valuables stolen overnight in san francisco. the onlier of that store says that she watched the break-in as it happened. the details about what the thieves were after. >> reporter: i'm kris sanchez in santa clara county which will start vaccinating children 5 and up with the bivalent covid booster and when california's state of emergency will come to an end.

right now at 6:30, moving you forward on covid vaccination booster shots for younger children. where you can now take them to get vaccinated. right now considering the number of officers that we're

short, we need all the assistance we can get. cracking down on crime with the help of armed robots. the controversial new strategy floated by oakland police to resolve staffing issues and the response from city leaders. this is "today in the bay" streaming live on roku, amazon fire, apple tv and online. 6:30 on your tuesday morning. thanks for starting your day with us. i'm laura garcia. >> and i'm marcus washington. a live look inside chase center for you this morning and this will be a special night for dub nation. the team will get their championship banner before the warriors game against the lakers. our ginger conejero saab is going to be live for us coming up at 6:45. she will have those details for us. hopefully make a shot for us. >> right now she has the best seat in the house. meteorologist kari hall on this tuesday morning, you have a look at our forecast as folks are headed to work. >> you have to get to work this morning and make some money for

those tickets. we are going to see some temperatures in oakland starting out in the upper 50s. it will be a cloudy morning but we still are going to have warmer air rolling in as we go into today. mid-70s at 1:00 and then we'll see the temperatures headed for the upper 70s for the south bay as well as the inner bay. notice the inland valleys, we're in the upper 80s today. it gets warmer as we head into the day tomorrow as we reach the peak of those temperatures for the week. big changes ahead. we'll talk about that, but, mike, cameras are filling in with traffic. notice the arrows, that's counter commute. it shouldn't be a major problem and no major injuries. that's great news. there is a lot of slowing, though. i don't know if it's major slowing but a lot of slowing south of the san mateo bridge. the crash has cleared to the shoulder. crews on scene will be a

distraction. that's the worst of it except for the one we expect which is the bay bridge toll plaza. that's just standard but bad compared to the rest of the freeway. back to you. new overnight san francisco police are investigating an overnight breakin at a jewelry and antique store. you can see police surrounding that store on 12th avenue in the richmond district. the owner says her store's surveillance cameras captured about eight people breaking in and the thieves managed to access the safe. she was at home when this happened. it's not clear yet what they stole. police are not commenting. >> health experts still stress the best way to keep it at bay is to get boosted. >> the big question a lot of people have are people listening. kris sanchez is live this morning. about 11% of santa clara residents are boosted. >> reporter: yes, if you think about that, that's about one in ten people and now santa clara

county is adding a whole other group of people. our kids 5 and up eligible for the bivalent booster to protect against the original strain and the omicron strains circulating now. the county has gotten their shipment of doses. they are ready to open up a number of clinics around the county to make sure families have access to that vaccine should they want it. the biggest is at the santa clara fairgrounds. there's the valley specialty center near valley medical center. in mountain view there's a clinic at 435 san antonio road. and in the south county a drive-thru clinic in san martin. many pediatrician offices also have bivalent boosters for kids 5 and up. can you call your doctor and check with your local pharmacy. some will be vaccinating the little ones as well. again, it protects against the original strain and the omicron

strain and the newer strains circulating now are milder but are more contagious. >> a really important benefit of this vaccine it reduces the risk of hospitalization and death especially for those who are over 50 years of age. second, the bivalent booster will reduce your risk of long covid. >> reporter: so we know now when california will end the state of emergency. the declaration will expire at the end of february. now this is largely symbolic because the shelter or the mask mandate, the vaccine notification requirements, they have really kind of gone by the wayside. with no state of emergency, local counties still can enact rules if they see fit, if they see cases surging. check with your hr person or your boss because you may not have to notify anyone if you get

covid and go to work going on in the future once that statement of emergency is declared. don't do that. just check with your boss first. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> kind of scary people can do that. people still debating am i going to get the booster or not? we were just talking about it. >> reporter: that's another good reason to get the booster, right, if you don't know who has it. >> it's nice to be back. thank you, kris. to your health. 6:35 right now. developing this morning in antioch police are trying to solve a disturbing homicide. it started yesterday morning when first responders discovered a woman's body burning in a small fire set along a trail between gentrytown drive and contra loma boulevard. so far the woman has not been identified nor has her cause of death. police are hoping someone who knows something will come forward. happening today oakland leaders will debate on expanding police use of license plate readers to help reduce crime and

violence. councilmembers introducing the ordinance represent areas seeing some of the biggest spike in violent crimes. they argue granting police access to vehicular data would help solve more cases almost immediately. privacy advocates argue the technology does more harm than good. now some oakland police members are also now pushing to add another crime fighting tool to their arsenal, armed robots. police robots have been used for years to disrupt explosive devices from a safe distance. but according to the intercept police floated that idea during a police subcommittee meeting last month. here is one audio clip of that meeting and argument from oakland councilmember noel gallo. >> god forbid something happens and this is the only option. much as i hate to say it, a robot with a shotgun may be our only hope. >> it's a robot we're going to be using today then i just want

to hear the proposal so the public clearly understands the need and also the implementation. >> critics fear police would abuse the crime fighting tool. the commission agrees to only allow those robots to be equipped with pepper spray. vice president kamala harris heads to the bay area today. the vice president will depart l.a.x. to sfo around 8:20 this morning. this is ahead of her participation in a moderated discussion on climate action at the cowell theater this afternoon. she will attend a democratic finance event. the oakland native was last in the bay area in august discussing reproductive rights. 6:37 right now. taking a live look at michigan's upper peninsula this morning. doesn't it just look cold? it's only october but residents might think it's close to the holidays. they are waking up to snow.

a strong winter storm is pounding the state. the wintry mix is creating slushy road hazards out there. wind gusts, in fact, reach up to 40 miles per hour. turning now to meteorologist kari hall. another part of the cold blast hitting millions of people across the country right now. >> there are 93 million people under freeze warnings for the eastern half of the country. those areas shaded in purple where it even goes to the gulf coast. this is that first big blast of the season dealing with subfreezing temperatures. i want to show you how cold it will be tonight with some teens here in sioux city but then as you head across much of the rest of the east it will be in the 20s and 30s. you can call your family out east and say, hey, 70 and sunny in the bay area. we don't want to brag too much. here is what's going on. there's a big plunge in the jet stream as an area of low pressure forces that air further

to the south while we're under a big ridge of high pressure causing some very warm temperatures and by tomorrow we could see some of our highs reaching into the low to mid-90s. now all of this is moving so the cold air is moving out and our warm air is on the move as well as we get ready for some weekend rain. i'll talk more about that in the forecast coming up in a few minutes. mike, you've been making predictions about traffic all day. exactly. many of them have come true. it's tuesday. heavier volume, bigger slowdown, highway 4 is still slow. pittsburg down into walnut creek, there it is, and latch lafayette. 37, the east shore freeway, richmond and the bay bridge all slowing. later on today as early as 8:00 lane restrictions as they continue this week through thursday overnight closures there. and tonight a big deal, not a closure but a reopening, the home opener chase center. the warriors game tonight. it's a 7:00 game but thrive city

income bracket, period. >> republican and conservative groups have been trying to stop that loan forgiveness. two issues, one, that the president overstepped his bounds by declaring relief. he should have waited for congress. two, the argument that forgiveness does damage to the agencies that collect for the federal government. it's the federal government's money. those are legal arguments but there's a political side obviously to this. few americans of the 40 million americans who have student loans probably stay awake at night thinking will this hurt the debt collectors? a link to that voters guide i was talking about. let's do it on facebook. >> thanks so much, scott. a big night for the warriors and their fans. and they're getting the championship ring. they're also taking on lebron james, the rival lakers.

>> i want to go back to the ring. the ring is the bling. "today in the bay's" ginger conejero saab is live for us inside chase center. the warriors could use some celebration right about now. >> reporter: all of dub nation can. the recent punch seen around the world still sits over the team like a dark cloud but we've heard it time and time again from the team, the organization and dub nation. it's time to move on and focus on what lies ahead which could also mean another run at a championship title. there hasn't been that much time since the last championship, just over three months celebrating another warriors championship, the first since they moved to san francisco. klay thompson and what tonight means to him. >> a special night warriors fans will never forget. same with the players and staff.
