this morning, a san francisco bank may go under. a live report from washington on the collapse of first republic and the possible deal in the works to save it from collapse. this is "today in the bay." quickly approaching 5:00 on your friday morning. thanks for starting your day with us. i'm laura garcia. >> i'm kris sanchez. marcus washington has the day off. we are going to take a look at the roadways, but first we want to start with a look at the forecast because yesterday was hot and we want to know if we're going to get more. we're going to get more heat today and tomorrow. let's take a look outside where it's been cool, because of the fog rolling over san francisco. it's going to keep the coastal areas much lower compared to what we're seeing inland and the warm temperatures continue into today as well as tomorrow. but then by sunday, those temperatures are going to be dropping. and we could have some wind and rain ahead in the forecast.

but we're still reaching into the upper 80s for the interior valleys today, and 60s for san francisco. mike, you were looking for some flashing lights. >> for a while it was tough because our camera in emeryville, you can see the clouds floating around. it was impeded from view. there's the berkeley curve, coming toward us there's a closure on the connecter from west 580 onto eastbound 80. there's some flashing lights. i think the crews should be moving in the next few minutes. you still see the sensors, causing a bog-down here. the maze, heading toward berkeley and university. that should be cleared in the next few. we'll see a traffic break likely over the next couple of minutes. patchy fog through the north bay and across the golden gate bridge. >> thank you. it's 5:01. developing, two separate shootings in oakland under investigation. >> "today in the bay"'s bob redell joins us from the newsroom. one of these incidents involved

a teenager. >> correct, last night at around 10:30 there was a shooting at foothill boulevard and brookdale avenue in the city of oakland. oakland police confirmed to our photographer on the scene that the two people who were shot drove themselves to the hospital, both in stable condition. an officer also confirmed that one of the victims is a teenage boy. we just heard from opd and they tell us there have been no arrests. we also asked about another crime scene in midvale if there was a report of another shooting, this one taking place at around 11:45. no details, however, both shootings are under investigation and no other details have been released. anyone with information is asked to call oak police. reporting live in the newsroom, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thank you, bob. happening today, the woman accused in the deadly shooting of pleasanton home depot security guard is set in court for a plea hearing. that guard, blake mohs, died outside the store on april 18th.

investigators believe he had just confronted the suspect about stolen items before she shot him. a second suspect now in custody, david guillory, accused of driving the getaway car. the accused hitman in an oakland murder-for-hire plot is scheduled to appear in court today for a disposition hearing. the shooting happened last aug in little saigon. he pleaded not guilty last november. investigators say the man who hired him took his own life after he was arrested. the family of a san francisco woman killed in a wrong-way crash is demanding justice. 54-year-old eden palmer died saturday afternoon on interstate 280 in woodside. one of her sons, 14 years old, also in the car, remains in critical condition. her other son, understandably, heartbroken, still trying to comprehend the tragic loss. he says he and his little brother have lost their best

friend. >> it's been very difficult, obviously not having my mom around, someone who has been a shining light in my life and so many other people's lives. >> authorities arrested 24-year-old constellatia martin near the scene. they say she ran from the crash into a nearby field. martin is being held without bail and is charged with vehicular manslaughter and driving under the influence of drugs. new overnight, at least ten people in ukraine are dead after what's being called the largest russian air strike in two months. one missile struck an apartment building in a town about 100 miles south of kyiv. there are still fears that people may be trapped, as rescue workers comb through the smoking rubble. ukraine does say 21 of the 23 missiles fired by russian forces were shot down. growing fears this morning of a spreading crisis in the financial sector with san francisco based bank sitting front and center. first republic has been on life support for days now, and now the federal government may be

ready to step in. >> "today in the bay"'s brie jackson is live in washington. what are you learning about those reported talks? >> reporter: good morning, kris and laura. well, reuters reports that u.s. officials are leading those talks as first republic bank appears to be in trouble. sources tell the news organization that the fdic, the treasury department, and the federal reserve are all involved in the conversations. the company appears to be in trouble, even after receiving $30 billion in deposits from 11 major other banks last month. now, first republic's shares have plunged 57% this week, after it revealed the extent of which customers pulled their deposits in the days after silicon valley bank failed. as we've been reporting, any first republic customers' funds are protected up to $250,000 per account, because of the fdic. but if you, like many companies, have more than that in a single

account, financial experts say this is an uncertain time. >> the main difference is that for silicon valley, the government stepped in front of the mics and said, no matter, you're safe. apparently this has not happened for first republic. so first republic is just as any company in difficulties, if you're invested in them as a depositor, you're just hoping for the best. >> reporter: all of the uncertainty comes as the federal reserve is expected to release a review of its supervision of silicon valley bank this morning. federal regulators seized the company last month after sv b's customers withdrew tens of billions of deposits in a matter of hours. meanwhile, it is unclear at this point whether the u.s. government is participating and encouraging a private sector rescue of first republic. just a note, the treasury department declined to comment

to reuters about the report. the federal reserve did not immediately respond to email requests sent after hours. for "today in the bay," i'm brie jackson. >> hard to see that happening right here at home. >> thank you very much. taking a live look at the golden gate bridge. can you make it out? just trust me on this one. >> always. >> tracking that forecast for us, meteorologist kari hall. >> it's going to be a lot cooler in san francisco, and where we're seeing that fog. and yesterday it did get really hot. let's talk about where those hottest temperatures were, with concord hitting 90 degrees. it was 92 at stanford yesterday, and sjc hit a high temperature of 87, petaluma 86 and sfo got up to 82 degrees yesterday. we've come back down to the 50s and it's warmest right now in san jose, at 59 degrees. it's cooler in san martin at 50

degrees, 50 in san francisco and santa rosa, and we're headed for the upper 80s for our warmer spots inland today. we'll talk about the weekend coming up. mike gets you out the door with a look at lower gas prices. >> the contra costa county still favors hercules with their best price of $4.19 a gallon, the safeway on san pablo avenue. santa clara county, the low is up to $4.23. the arco on north capital avenue is our pick. in marin county we have another arco, mill valley, the low of $4.25. some of the best ranges we're seeing reported through you on gasbuddy.com. the roadways are moving well. we have crews getting ready to start their weekend. northbound 680 slowing, where the arrow is, and they're likely clearing with the full overnight closure north of 84. if you're leaving the house now, it should be okay in the next few minutes. same thing at the berkeley curve, west 580, eastbound 80,

the closure should clear. it will happen again overnight tonight. >> thank you, mike. new signs of life for downtown san francisco. coming up, despite the mass exodus of tech companies, a business is officially opening up its doors. we'll show you the drive for the company to make that move. >> incredible moments caught on camera. ahead, a look at the moment a seventh grader sprang into action after his bus driver fell unconscious. >> stay with us. >> stay with us. yo - life is uncertain.

happy friday to you. it's time to get up and out the door and get this friday started. in the east bay, we're taking a live look at emeryville. a little fog drifting around in parts of the coastal areas and the bay and it's going to warm up nicely for some of our areas near the water. inland it's going to be heating up. we'll talk more about that in a few minutes. we're also in the east bay looking at fremont. the nimitz southbound with the headlights toward the south bay. we do have another issue coming into fremont, there may be some slowing after a crash reported. i'll gather the details and show you speeds in the area as well. >> first, let's check in with bertha. good morning. good morning. i'm bertha coombs from cnbc. it's the final trading day of april. at the moment, the futures are

pointing to a slightly open start. we've gotten results from energy giants exxon mobil and chevron, both better than expected despite the fact we've seen lower oil prices during the quarter. right now we are waiting for inflation data and the key read on consumer spending. meantime, shares of snap down nearly 20% this morning after the social media platform reported revenues. that came in below expectations. it's really been a tough online ad market in social media. for snap, user growth was slower than expected. meantime, amazon reporting a big revenue beat, driven by growth beyond its e-commerce site in its online ad platform and cloud computing unit aws. investors liked that, but then they sent the stock lower. executives delivered what you might call a cloudy forecast for aws, as the company holds back

on spending amid economic uncertainty. amazon itself has been cutting costs. it's cutting another 27,000 jobs on top of 76,000 layoffs it's completed over the last year in recent months. it's been a tough time in silicon valley. >> it sure has. >> out west in general with all of the tech firms announcing layoffs. >> yeah, constantly. we've had meta, lyft this week. just tons. in fact, we've dedicated on our website an area of all the layoffs we're hearing. hopefully people can find something else rather quickly. >> thank you, bertha. new this morning, as more businesses flee san francisco, as we were just talking about, one global technology company is bucking the trend, setting up new offices in the city by the bay. the german-based sap just opened new offices yesterday. it covers three floors and 30,000 square feet of a building on townsend street, and it

features rooftop space. while sap workers are not yet required to be back in the office, one spokesman says many workers are enthused about collaborating face-to-face again. >> employees are wanting to meet each other and to have facetime, and every time that we talk to them they tell us as to how energizing it was to come together and meet people and bump into people, and those spontaneous interactions just don't happen. so for us, it was more about how do we get that in a space where we want to be, rather than forcing people to be there. >> the new sap offices in san francisco can accommodate up to 500 employees, which is about 15% of sap's bay area workforce. the nfl draft off to a flying start. last night the carolina panthers selected alabama quarterback bryce young as the first pick. the 49ers don't have much to talk about, in part due to the

trade that netted them christian mccaffrey. barring another trade, the 9ers won't pick again until tonight's third round where they get to make three selections. trending this morning, a seventh grader springs into action to save his fellow students. this is amazing. >> unbelievable. the bus driver fell unconscious and began swerving the bus and that's when the boy stepped in. >> it makes my heart skip a beat. i'm extremely proud of him. >> a little hero. >> it happened in michigan. you see the bus driver as he lost consciousness. the bus weaves into oncoming traffic. he calmly grabs the wheel and brings the bus full of kids to a stop. his mom says he is very observant. that he knew what to do. >> and then he was so calm about it. and then tells the kids, okay, calm down. >> take your seats, please. >> exactly. >> i want him on my next field

trip. >> absolutely. >> amazing. all right, a lot of folks can't go watch the warriors in person because it's expensive, so some people might be watching outside. >> watching outside, maybe at thrive city. >> that's fun. and it's a friday night. >> it's a friday night. if you're going to visit a friend's house and watch it with everyone else, it's going to be a really nice evening. and we've had some better air quality today in the forecast, compared to yesterday, where we did have unhealthy air quality. it's still going to be marginal for parts of the east bay, but we're seeing slight improvements as the wind picks up this afternoon. let's go around the bay. we're starting out with a live look outside in san francisco where it's foggy. we head inland to santa clara, where it's going to be another hot day. temperatures reaching into the upper 80s. but comfortable in pacifica, thanks to the fog we're seeing,

low 60s there. and then it will be very warm again in vallejo, reaching 86 degrees. we talked about game six of round one later on tonight, it's going to be at about 64 degrees. very windy. you still need a jacket in the city. it's going to get even cooler as we go through the night, and also dipping down into the mid-50s. we'll see a wide range in temperatures here, because our high at half moon bay reaches 68 degrees, oakland will be 77 degrees, and 86 in dublin and still hitting 92 in fairfield. but then tomorrow we're starting to see even more of those temperatures coming down for parts of the inner bay, reaching 75 in hayward. i think that is just perfect. really comfortable weather. mountain view reaching 80 degrees. and some upper 80s for morgan hill and mid-80s for much of the tri-valley. but then by sunday, look at these high temperatures.

significantly cooler, with santa rosa reaching 73 degrees, and we'll see fremont reaching 66 degrees, san mateo 62. so the strong cold front comes through on sunday, but the possibility of rain enters the forecast on monday. and that will mainly be farther to the north where we start to see spotty showers coming through, and much colder temperatures will continue. scattered showers will be off and on throughout the bay area next week, possibly even some heavier rain by the end of next week. big changes ahead. and we are not done with the rain just yet, as we look at our long-range rainfall estimates, showing that in these areas in red in parts of the north bay, we could see an inch or two of rainfall next week, while the areas in yellow are showing about a half to three-quarters of an inch of rain, maybe less in some of the valleys. so we are still looking at hot weather for today and tomorrow, and then sunday it is going to be much cooler.

rain chances and temperatures in the 60s, as winter returns next week. mike, you're watching a crash. what's the update? >> overall things are moving smoothly, but there is a crash i'm concerned about that did pop up in fremont. the green sensors, we expect lighter volume of traffic on a friday, an easier build likely. slowing hasn't happened just yet. southbound 880, this crash is right around the exit there, and there may be an issue as far as injuries and perhaps a lot of damage going on. i'm still tracking that closely. so far, we don't see the slowing i expected to see heading toward the dumbarton bridge on southbound 880. we're looking at the entire rest of the tri-valley, a smooth flow of traffic. the earlier slowing we saw indicative of the traffic break cleared up a couple second ago. i do think they've reopened northbound 680 after the overnight road work. just some minor slowing at the altamont. clear by the time you pass by

north flynn road. the slowing sensors seem to have cleared up from westbound 580, the connecter was closed coming from this direction toward berkeley university. it will happen again tonight. they're doing road work there. no problem on the berkeley curve itself getting toward the bay bridge. flashing lights on the shoulder approaching the toll plaza. we'll track to make sure no gates are blocked or anything like that. there is fog there. you can still see as you drive. back to you. >> thank you. up next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. >> our energy bills are up. we want to help you bring them back down. i'm consumer investigator chris chmura.

this morning, family, friends and fans remembering jerry springer. he died yesterday at the age of 79. whether you admit to watching it or not, there's no denying "the jerry springer show" was a cultural phenomenon that changed television really as we know it. springer's long-time friend and the show's creator opening up about finding success in daytime television. >> what the rest of the public did not see, we did the show out of chicago, was we put up a big 1-800-jerry, call us if you have a major problem with a relationship. if you have a normal problem, go to oprah, sally. but if you have a really crazy problem, come to us. >> the stuff you don't want to say out loud. >> it makes sense. in addition, springer was also

the former mayor of cincinnati. after that, he was a news anchor and commentator at the nbc station in that city. >> he definitely loved what he did. >> he was very passionate. >> he had a lot of friends, a lot of people that really respected him. may he rest in peace. our power and gas bills have been higher lately. >> we asked our consumer team to find ways to cut energy bills. consumer investigator chris chmura shows us how. unfortunately, the best way to cut our energy costs is to use less energy. but that doesn't necessarily mean you have to be uncomfortable. let's start with your thermostat. pg&e says each degree you lower your thermostat can save you 2%. drop it 5 degrees at night and you might save 10%. if you're able to, pg&e recommends 68 or lower. blankets to the rescue. when you leave your home, try to keep the warm air inside. close those curtains, shades and blinds.

then pg&e says set the thermostat to 56 while you're away. the department of energy recommends a look at your water heater. many are set to 140 degrees by default. consider 120 instead. if that's warm enough for showers and doing dishes, uncle sam says you might save 22%. pg&e says you can save roughly another 10% on your bills if your attic, walls, doors and windows are sealed nicely. caulk is cheap and it easily fills those gaps where warm air can escape or cool air weasels in. if you qualify as low income or receive government assistance, click this qr code. you might be eligible for saves of 20% to 35%. happening tomorrow, alameda county is ending its eviction moratorium. the policy was put in place in the beginning of the pandemic to temporarily stop evictions. it was an effort to protect

tenants at risk of becoming unhoused. property owners have been rally against the moratorium for months and are calling on the county to reimburse them for any loss of rental income. game six between the warriors and kings is back at the chase center tonight and tip-off time is much earlier than usual.

growing anticipation ahead of tip-off. for now, let's get a look at the forecast. meteorologist kari hall is tracking what we can expect. there she is. >> good morning. it's going to still be hot for the inland areas today. and we're also going to see more fog near the coastline. that's going to keep those temperatures cool there. so as we get a look at what to expect, it's going to be warm for the valleys today and tomorrow. and the coast will see temperatures in the 60s, the bay in the 70s, and then some of our inland valleys reaching the low 80s. temperatures will drop on sunday. we may have wind and rain ahead. then looking at today's high temperatures, reaching 86 in dublin, up to 88 in morgan hill and 92 in fairfield, the coastal areas will be in the 60s for today. mike, you spotted some flashing lights. >> yeah. they were right here. >> they're gone? >> yeah. >> that's good. >> exactly. we'll look at the close-up at the richmond side of the bridge.

flashing lights. the tow truck cleared without any incidents. the top of the screen, low clouds are hovering around. okay for the drive toward the richmond bridge, sometimes impeding your view of the golden gate bridge and the bay bridge. but no major problems. sensors slowing west 80 across from oakland. we may see metering lights within the next 10 or 15 minutes. san jose shows slowing for north 101 and there's a crash around alvarado, but everything is off the roadway. we'll track it. back to you. >> thank you very much. it's 5:32 right now. san francisco police are expected to provide more details today on a deadly shooting that sparked chaos outside of market street walgreens. it happened about 6:30 last night, where stockton and 4th street run into market. very close to the westfield mall. according to friends of the victim, a 19-year-old sacramento woman was shot after leaving that walgreens.

police later detained a man at the scene. now, according to witnesses, the man is a store security guard, but police so far providing no further details, including how that man is connected to the gunfire. antioch's embattled police department now facing a new lawsuit this morning. one long-time east bay radio reporter claims officers abused him not once, but twice. frank sterling says one incident happened at antioch park in september of 2021 at a retirement party for antioch's former police chief. he says protesters were also there and then a fight broke out between a woman activist and a police supporter, and that's when several police officers got involved. sterling claims that he tried to intervene and that's when officers threw him to the ground, tased him while he was in handcuffs. >> it kind of left me thinking, why would they do this to me when i wasn't resisting? i could relive it 100 times, it's still fresh in my mind

exactly what happened. >> sterling says that the first assault by officers happened in 2009 and that officers in that incident are among those named in the text messaging and civil rights investigations that are under way. we did not receive a response from antioch police about sterling's new claim. happening today, the former san jose police union executive director accused of drug trafficking is scheduled to appear in court. joanne segovia faces federal charges after the police union says an internal investigation found she distributed drugs across the country and received dozens of shipments of fentanyl to her home. she worked at san jose's police association for 20 years. the union is still looking into whether she utilized poa resources. we continue to follow this story. we will be there in court today and bring you the latest online at nbcbayarea.com, as well as on air. make sure to tune into nbc bay area news at 4:30 as well. angry a's fans tonight plan to voice their feelings outside

the coliseum at the team's first home game since the land deal announcement signaling the team's possible move to vegas. the a's tonight host the cincinnati reds, and for a lot of bay area fans, hope is fading fast for the team to remain in the east bay. oakland mayor sheng thao talked last night with raj mathai. she said despite the fact she feels jilted by the a's, she would set her feelings aside if the a's were to reconsider. >> if they would call me, i would pick up because it's not about me, it's not about john fisher. it's truly about the bigger, more complex issues around the fan base, what it means to drive the economy here in the city of oakland, and what it means to really be rooted here in oakland. and so i really hope that we can really set aside our differences and work something out. >> mayor thao believes both sides were making progress

toward a new ballpark deal before it fell apart. a's management says the team got tired of waiting for a deal, they were not certain would ever materialize. turning to a different sport, the warriors/kings will continue to battle it out tonight in what's become one of the most entertaining matchups in this year's playoffs. >> entertaining and stressful. >> if the warriors win, they move on to the next round. >> "today in the bay"'s pete suratos is live inside chase center. tip-off time is going to be early for tonight's game with that sea of gold behind you. >> they're already getting ready. >> reporter: indeed. the tip-off time is going to be at 5:00 p.m. that's probably one of the earliest playoff times in playoff history. the kings boarded the team bus, we have some of that video already, heading to san francisco for tonight's big matchup. of course it is win or go home for the sacramento kings tonight, depending on how things go. game five, you just mentioned, there was a huge win for the

she explains it offers virtual evaluations, allowing parents to avoid lengthy waits and in-person office visits. >> it is unacceptable for children to be waiting for health care. we knew we had to do something. parents can meet with a clinician right in the comfort of their own home and they'll be asked questions, they'll be asked to play with their child, engage in play-based behaviors, and our team of highly trained physicians will help them understand if their child has autism and how to best meet their needs. >> as you are is available in california and 11 other states, but they aim to provide access to care nationwide by the end of this year. new this morning, an extraordinarily young boy from the midwest saved over 20 lives by donating his organs, and now his spirit is certainly living on in the fight against crime in the south bay. >> "today in the bay"'s bob redell joins us. bob, this is national donate a

life month, and the campbell police are honoring his legacy in the most perfect way. >> they are. good morning to you. campbell police just welcomed its newest k9 to the team. they both just finished extensive training and are on duty as a team. but the dog needs a name. so the department has chosen to name him roan after roan clark, a 10-year-old boy from michigan who dreamed of becoming a k9 handler himself. sadly, roan died of a brain aneurysm in 2022. his organs saved the lives of more than 20 people across the united states, the youngest a 1-year-old baby boy, the oldest a 56-year-old woman. among those saved, wendy ryan of northern virginia, whose brother is the chief of the campbell police department. she was within weeks of dying when she received roan's small bowl and large intestines. tomorrow, on what would have been roan's 12 birthday, wendy

will meet roan's mom for the first time in person. >> in her darkest hour when she had just lost her son, she made a choice to give life to other people, and i don't know that she'll ever understand the duality of how i hold that in my heart. she saved my life. >> we now have k9 roan, the most amazing tribute we could have as a family. and anyone who knows roan knows how excited he is right now in heaven knowing that there's a puppy named after him. >> i believe that k9 roan will be a symbol and a remembrance that we can all impact people's lives in both small and large

ways. >> kris, i know you spoke to roan's mom. she mentioned she wants to encourage other people to become organ donors. she says as horrible as her son's death is, the life-saving donations has helped ease some of her sadness. right now there are 114,000 americans awaiting an organ transplant, 22,000 of whom are here in california, an average of 22 people die every day waiting. you can register as an organ donor at donatelifecalifornia.org. chief berg's sister was waiting for four months, she said she was within three weeks to a month of dying. >> amazing. >> donate life california, they have some stats there and they really try to address some of the hangups people might have. if you go to the hospital, they're going to try to save your life first. >> that's the most common thing that is not true that people believe. >> and there's no cost to the family that's donating. >> and look at the difference. the illustration of the story of

how it was so sad but it brought such light to other people and what a beautiful tribute happening this weekend. >> k9 roan. can't wait to see him, maybe at the farmer's market. >> thanks for brings us that. good to have bob in the house. >> is there air-conditioning in here? it's so weird. >> i'll show you where the bathrooms are later. >> you know where the heat is going to be. >> can i have a key card? >> kari has rain in the forecast next week. guess where we're going to be? >> we love our dedicated "today in the bay" team. always here for you. >> doing it all. out there in all kinds of conditions. today it's really hot weather for the inland areas, and then next week we're back to winter. we'll talk about all of those changes. also, a little bit better air quality compared to yesterday. it was hazy during the middle of the afternoon into the evening, and today we'll have moderate air quality. but when we take a look at how

much ozone is in the air, all the pollution, and it really gets pushed down by high pressure into the valleys, and it doesn't have a chance to mix out, we're still going to have moderate air quality in the east bay, in the inland areas where temperatures will reach into the mid to upper 80s. near the coast in the 60s today, and it will be definitely cooler starting tomorrow in some of the inner bay, some of the valleys are still going to be hot, like 85 in san jose. but then sunday is when we see some drastic changes in our temperatures, only 60 as a cold front comes in. and then next week we're talking about rain coming back, scattered showers for monday all the way through the end of the week, and we may have a few storms coming our way and possibly more sierra snow. take a look at our seven-day forecast. we're in the upper 80s today inland, mid-80s tomorrow and then mid-70s on sunday. then we'll bring it down to the 60s next week. it will be time to get out the umbrellas, the coats and all of

the winter gear after having to break out the shorts and t-shirts. so far it seems like the commute is pretty light. >> friday light. we do have limited visibility in portions, like farther north from novato coming from santa rosa, no problems. across the golden gate bridge, it looks bad but when you're driving across, you're doing just fine. you see that more in the north bay, showing the effect. we have slowing across the bay bridge as well as highway 37, but no surprises. no metering lights and no issues for the south bay or peninsula. back to you. >> thank you so much. happening now, about 500 pg&e customers in san francisco still do not have power. it's down from about 9,000 wednesday night, but it doesn't matter if you're one of them. some of them have been told that their lights will be out until tomorrow. pg&e says the cause of the outage is under investigation but the fire department tells us it's likely linked to an underground vault fire. most of those outages are concentrated in the financial

district. 5:52 right now. could zendaya be returning to music after her surprise appearance at coachella? the rumor mill is going. >> still ahead, the new release that has fans begging for more. >> plus, springing into action. the moment, all caught on camera, the seventh grader rescuing his classmates after their bus driver falls unconscious. >> then ahead at 6:00, worries over another bank collapse. we're live in washington with more on the steps the u.s. is taking to ease concerns. >> and a quick reminder, you can now access nbc bay area news whenever you would like, whether it's on roku, samsung tv+ or xumo. you can watch live breaking news, news conferences, even repeats of our newscasts. we'll be

beat. i'm extremely proud of him. >> this happened in michigan. you can see the bus driver lose consciousness. the bus, when it starts weaving into oncoming traffic, dillon sees all of this happen and calmly grabs the wheel and brings the bus to a full stop. he's being praised by the community. his mom says he's just very observant. >> very calm. >> he's been observing his mom drive, too. >> did you see, he had to look at the gear shift, which one? because the bus is a lot different than a ford escort. >> my gosh. level heads. not so calm on this one we're going to talk about. friends and fans are remembering a little hecticness on the jerry springer show. the host died yesterday at the age of 79. there's no denying that "the jerry springer show" was a

cultural phenomenon that changed tv. his long-time friend and the show's creator is opening up about finding success on that specific daytime show. >> what the rest of the public did not see, we did the show out of chicago then, was we would put up a 1-800 call us, if you have a major problem with a relationship. if you have a normal problem, go to oprah, sally. but if you have a real crazy problem, come to us. >> that's very accurate. in addition to that show, jerry springer was the former mayor of cincinnati and after that he became a news anchor and commentator on the nbc news station in cincinnati and then the jerry springer thing came along. i didn't know he had all of that before then. he was a very accomplished gentleman. >> complicated show, too. it is the top of the hour, and rightht now at 6 6:00, a vit night in oakland. multiple
