coast with 50's and 60's and some 70's along the bay. high temperatures will continue to boost as we move into the weekend tomorrow back into the mid 80's for some inland areas.

no major hot spots. bay bridge wb 80 is less then 30 min from the maze to sf. san mateo bridge less then 30 min from 880 to 101. richmond bridge drive less than 20 min from the toll to 101. ( robin ) breaking breaking overnight... a

person found dead in a bathroom at an east bay bart station. the body was discovered around 9:20 last night at the bay fair station in san leandro. drug paraphernalia was found in the bathroom with the body. the station was closed around 10:00 last night but has since reopened. ( robin ) a big story we are following this morning... a south bay teacher arrested for robbery and carrying a gun in his classroom. the strong armed robbery actually happened back in februaray. that's when police say - charles so- assaulted a man after a road rage incident and took his cell phone.

police went to arrest so... yesterday at chaboya middle school in san jose... that's when they found a gun in his bag inside the class room... which is a felony. ( robin ) new this morning in the east bay... a school in el cerrito is investigating a teacher for using a racial slur. that teacher has been placed on administrative leave. the executive director of the summit k-2 charter school released a statement saying in part: "k2 has a zero-tolerance policy on inappropriate, insensitive or hateful language of any kind. the school immediately launched an investigation once it became aware of claims made by students about inappropriate language used by a teacher." the school is not releasing the name of the teacher. ( robin ) a developing story we are following this morning... new details in the bizarre case of a headless torso .. found inside the home of a missing man in san francisco. kron-4 obtained court documents - detailing the arrest of lance silva... who is now in custody on a probation violation.

police found silva in possession of the missing man.. brian egg's.. stolen credit card. they say he withdrew cash from egg's account - and used egg's credit card to buy a b-m-w back in june. that car was towed - and later retrieved from a tow yard by silva and a man claiming to be paul forman - who police are now trying to find. neighbors spotted a crime scene clean up truck outside the home on august 14... that was allegedly hired by silva using egg's stolen credit card. the human remains that were found in teh house have not yet been identified. ( robin )kron 4's j.r. stone is following this part of the story. he talked talked with a number of crime scene cleanup crews in the bay area about this case. sot the fact that there was a torso in a fish tank hidden in an apartment and it took that amount of time for it to be discovered really blows my

mind.tony leonardini is the owner of bay area bio clean, a small company that specializes in cleaning up crime scenes...after police have left.sot in the case of the headless torso found in missing man brian egg's san francisco home. it was neighbors who saw the private crimescene cleanup crew at the house. they grew suspicious seeing that they hadn's seen police there. when officers arrived their dogs helped them located the torso. tony, along with several other company heads from crime scene cleanup crews, told us that questions are often asked but there is also a trust factor with the person who hires them. sot typically there is not a lot of paper work or communication with the police

department a lot of taking the person's word for it and that's why we try to do as much information gathering as possible.court documents allege that lance silva used egg's debit card to purchase the hazmat crew. investigators have not named the company that came in but tony says he is surprised they weren't the ones that found something and called police. sot typically when i go out and do a job i check the entire home sometimes the police or fire paramedics can leave things throughout the house so i typically try to check everything so i'm surprised they didnt' come across something. ( robin )that was kron 4s j-r stone reporting. tony did tell kron 4 that he has received jobs that he didn't trust... so he didn't take them. he wonders if this cleanup crew took a job like that.
