your realtime captioner is linda marie macdonald. wanted by the fbi, a so cal bank robbery suspect shot dead by san francisco police. the threat that forced them to open fire. commuters caught on candid camera. the new push to crack down on toll cheaters in the south bay. good morning, i'm sydnie kohara. it is wednesday, june 8. thanks for joining us. >> hi, everybody. i'm frank mallicoat. time is 4:30. and let's get a quick look at traffic and weather. we begin on a very serious note. a body found on a freeway. and let's kick it off with traffic first, i believe, and what's going on? >> in palo alto, we have a map to show you of the scene right now. this is southbound 101. it sounds like it's just past

oregon expressway. we have learned that this is an accident involving a car and a pedestrian. it's been out there since about 2:45 this morning so chp is out there investigating right now. what we know is that as you mentioned one fatality confirmed, sounds like it was a pedestrian in the roadway. but again, chp is out there investigating the exact details. we know that three left lanes have been shut down for a couple of hours since about 2:45 this morning and they don't have any estimated time when they are going to re-open the freeway but it is slow for about an exit in that area. so you may want to consider using 280 as your alternate in the meantime. all right. also want to let you know, we have some video of this taken yesterday: eastbound interstate 80 in oakland off the bay bridge is wide open this morning, after two lanes were closed for about five hours overnight. a big rig loaded with dirt went off the freeway down an embankment near the 580-880 split. two lanes of eastbound 80 were

closed to clean up the dirt and diesel fuel that spilled. the driver suffered a broken arms, otherwise is doing okay. and again, chp doesn't know what caused this crash. so again, all lanes open now in oakland coming off the bay bridge. but our big traffic alert right now is in palo alto southbound 101 near oregon expressway a fatal accident and several blocked lanes. lawrence has the weather. >> we'll check out the fog today around the bay area. we have a lot of that going on if you are headed out the door. here's the great news, though. as we head toward the afternoon, most of that is going to disappear. how about these temperatures! 75 concord, 75 san jose, 69 oakland, 67 san francisco. >> a tinge of excitement in your voice. >> yes. >> we like it lawrence. thanks very much. a suspected southern california bank robber shot dead by police in san francisco. officers say this man tried to

run them down with his car. the fbi let san francisco police know that the suspect was in the city. when they tried to stop him, police say the suspect tried to run and hit the officers with a stolen car and that's when gunfire erupted. >> i heard something like freeze or step away, which made me want to get up and look out the window. i realized it was the police. i just heard a lot of shots coming from all sorts of directions. >> the suspect was wanted for robbing two banks in irvine last month. he was driving a stolen car. and that's how the fbi tracked him to san francisco. that car had an on-board gps that let them know exactly where he was. we are going to have a live report on this coming up in the 5:00 hour. the 17-year-old accused of killing a baby in east palo alto going to court today. san mateo county prosecutors may decide to try him as an adult for sunday's murder. he is believed to have fired

into the car containing 3-month- old isaac jesus jimenez. police say the suspect thought he was retaliating against gang members who had beaten him up. the family is inviting the public to services for that baby tomorrow night in redwood city. they refuse to give up. the family of michelle le hopes the missing nursing student is still alive. they posted new billboards around the bay area saying the search is not over yet even though hayward police think le was killed in a parking garage may 27. police interviewed several persons of interest including le's former high school friend gisele esteban. she openly has admitted to hating le saying she stole her boyfriend. the "oakland tribune" reports esteban's boyfriend took out a restraining order against her three days before le disappeared. the man said esteban had been stalking him and making threats after he was granted 80% custody of their 5-year-old daughter. a san francisco family's demanding justice following the

shooting death of a prep football star david henderson died monday two weeks ago someone shot 291-year-old several times near his bayview home. newspapers say the lincoln high alum could have been nfl-bound. he broke several high school football records in the state. this march, henderson played semi pro for the pacifica islanders. >> his mom was at every game. she was just -- just... it's just so senseless. >> no arrests have been made and officers have not released a description of that gunman. 4:35. many parents trust their children with them but a child "care" program in the east bay is accused of leaving some kids unattended sometimes even losing them and that's not all. now the state is taking steps to shut down four sites of san ramon valley's child care

practice. juliette goodrich reports on the accusations. >> you shouldn't have to be forced to choose between safe and convenient. >> reporter: they say their 6- year-old daughter was kicked out of kids country at coyote creek elementary school in san ramon after they complained about inadequate care. >> our situation was unfortunate. my daughter's hair was cut by another child. she had scissors in her face. no one saw it there. were three teachers in the room. >> reporter: the department of social services is involved with formal accusations being filed at the state at four other sites not the site that their daughter attended. these accusations are that children were left unattended and in some cases children left the care center and headed home alone. >> my neighbor called me and said, do you know mary left alone today outside the classroom door? >> reporter: employees at kids' country at bolger site in san

ramon didn't want to talk on camera about the accusations but they have stated they run 13 sites with more than 1350 children attending. the facility director has stated their incidents have been far and few between and some parents would agree. >> i have nothing to complain. i have actually had good experience there. >> reporter: but the dal stroms say they aren't about blasting kids' country. they are about ensuring the health and safety of children. >> her safety was at risk. she was put into harm's way like all of these other children. >> that was juliette goodrich reporting from san ramon. the head of the national transportation safety board will be in san bruno today to tour the site of deadly pipeline explosion. the chairman and representative jackie speier with meet with pg&e officials, local authorities and explosion victims. the chairman will give an update on the investigation. that blast killed eight people

and destroyed 38 homes last z the cause is still under investigation. toll cheaters, watch out. new cameras may snap your mug along the bay area's first toll lane. the bay area toll authority is thinking about installing them on interstate 680 between pleasanton and milpitas. a new report shows more solo drivers are using the lane without paying plus it's taking too much time for chp officers to monitor and ticket violators. we'll have a live report coming up at 5:00. 4:38. no cheating when we're looking at this forecast, right, lawrence? >> no. we are getting a our money's worth. finally things turning around weather-wise. starting out with low clouds and fog. they have stretched well onshore into the valleys surging right there inland but that's good news as we'll watch that beginning to break up as we head in toward the afternoon, lots of sunshine coming our way and warmer temperatures. right now 56 in san jose, 54 livermore, 53 santa rosa, 54 san francisco. get a load of these numbers by

the afternoon. 79 in fairfield, 77 livermore, 75, beautiful, in san jose and you have a lot of 60s and 70s even inside the bay. we're looking fantastic. so over the next couple of days, we are breaking out the 80s as we head in toward thursday and friday and the weekend looking good, too. doesn't look like we are going to see any threat of rain for the next five to seven days, staying high and dry and much warmer as we head in toward the beginning of this next week. how about that elizabeth? >> i like it. i can handle the 80s. let's go right out to the peninsula because we are dealing with a hotspot already this morning. a traffic alert in effect southbound 101 just past the oregon expressway. this is the scene of a fatal accident. chp has out there for a couple of hours investigate egg. three left lanes blocked so traffic is able to get by in one lane but it is very slow in that area. backed up for at least one exit. so until they completely clear the scene which we didn't know when, still no eto on that we

are saying to use 280 as an alternate because it will be slow through the stretch. 280 moving better. really moving fine all the way towards the south bay. if you are coming out of downtown san jose, traffic is still very light up and down north- and southbound 280. guadalupe parkway fine. also mass transit we just checked caltrain might abe great option everything is running on time so far no delay there. ace train number one also got a great start and bart systemwide all on time. remember kcbs, our radio partners, at 740-am and 106.9- fm. that's your traffic and weather. back to you guys. >> thank you. he is keeping his job but a twitter job is costing a new york congressman a lot of friends on capitol hill. plus -- >> the recovery that we're on is not producing jobs as quickly as i wanted to. >> president obama is frustrated as all of us are.
