while the suspects went through the house stealing cash and electronic equipment including a computer. there were actually 12 victims inside this house when all of this happened. they range in age from 3 years old to 70 years old. fortunately no one was hurt and the suspect sped away in the silver infinity. we don't have a more details description of the suspects for you right now. but we can tell you that we're looking into a couple of things. one of the victim's told us that he saw the two men who did this last night in this area the night before. they're thinking maybe they were looking for victims the night before. there's also word that these two men may also be connected to other home invasions in the area. so we are contacting oakland police trying to determine if there's any connection to part of a bigger problem. we'll keep you updated here on the morning news. live in oakland, claudine wong, ktvu channel 2 news. a homeless migration being blamed for a jump in crime in san francisco.

san francisco and you normally take sutter and hyde, make sure you circumvent around this fire because a couple of blocks have been blocked off. you maybe want to take ageary as major thoroughfare into downtown as well as california streets. there should really be no problems there or market if you want to go further south or even broadway if you want to go further north to try to really avoid this whole section around the fire. right now we are going to head to the bay bridge toll plaza. as kraig mentioned it is a complete disaster. we had an earlier injury accident just after the metering lights. so those metering lights went on way early this morning. and you are looking at a 15 to 20 minute delay into san francisco. here's a look at the east shore freeway. typically the traffic on the left hand side is southbound. or westbound actually as you make your way toward the bay bridge toll plaza and onto 580 and 980 and 880. it is looking a little bit

busier than usual. perhaps that accident did have an effect. all right. up last we have san jose, this is 280 and traffic seems to be moving along just fine. 6:10. here's steve. tara, thank you. very good morning to you all. getting the e-mails and tweets. sp weather. i guess there's a lot of halloween parties and events planned for this weekend. now we still have a couple days to iron this out. but the things are changing for the weekend. today we're all right. we have the fog. once that burns back it will be sunny. a lot of rain in southern california. record rain yesterday in san diego, palm springs even santa barbara at a half inch of rain. l.a. about .40. what continues for us is fog. a lot on the coast and especially inland. if kids are like what's the forecast today? it will be chilly in the morning and then mild in the afternoon. and then warm later in the afternoon. so probably wear shorts and not

wear a jacket. that's the way it works. but any way similar to what we had yesterday if i want to pass the word along. for us what we are looking for will continue to be this fog and temperatures 70s for some, 60s for others. concord's forecast starting off at 50 under mostly clear skies. we'll go 70 as noon and a high of 76 which is similar to yesterday. 50 to 53. everybody's close here. napa, livermore concord at 50. three readings all said 55 although over by the stanford linear accelerator it was 54. so everyone's close. 30 up in tahoe. they were 27. 44 eureka. that's getting cool. one low here stay in southern california. there's our system for friday morning. give us light rain and stronger system out here which looks like it will play into our weekend forecast. areas of fog and sunny for most. late clearing by the coast but 70s for some, upper 70s, low 7 0z around the bay and 50s, 60s to near 70 on the coast. rain early friday morning.

anita hill made graphic allegations of sexual harassment. democrats and the media seized on it and thomas called the proceedings a high-tech lynching. >> i think that it is disgusting. i think that this hearing should never occur in america. >> clarence thomas indicated in his recent memoirs that he's still angry about the allegations. his wife who's now a conservative activist has issued a statement about the voice mail saying she was trying to extend an olive branch to anita hill. now i'll have more on why anita hill first called police when she got this message during my next update in about an hour. reporting live from washington d.c., allison burns, ktvu channel 2 news. well, the pentagon is now directing the u.s. military to accept openly gay recruits for the first time in the nation's history. that's after a federal judge refused to lift her injunction telling the military to immediately strike down the

don't ask, don't tell policy. the decision will be appealed though. so legal experts are cautioning gays and lesbian that is a successful repeal might put don't ask, don't tell back in place. >> to out yourself now in this short period is not going to insulate you from proceedings to have you discharged from the military later on. it would be a very dangerous thing to do right now. >> president obama has said he wants to repeal the don't ask, don't tell policy but the administration wants the courts to put the policy back in place until congress resolves the issue. today president obama is heading west on a five state, four day campaign swing including california. but now we're learning a democratic fundraiser the president was scheduled to attend in san francisco tomorrow has been moved to palo alto. state leader from san francisco says he's being punished by other democrats in the sate senate because he was the only democrat who did not vote for the budget. now he's been told he's being

stripped of his post as the number two ranking member of the senate. and lawmakers killed the budget bill he introduced to provide tax relief to victims of the san bruno explosion. then they reintroduced the same bill and passed it without his name. election results for the upcoming november 2nd election could be delayed because of the complication of rank choice voting. the ranked choice voting system is being used for the first time in oakland, berkeley and san lee an do. that means outcomes of the mayor's race in oakland and council races in all three cities may not be known on election day. it is 6:19. we have a lot going on out there starting with the giants game. great day to take part but we have the bay bridge toll plaza. >> we have a lot to talk about. with regards to the giants game it is try bart week. this is the third day of it and it really is the perfect opportunity for those of you to

take it because after the game starting time at 5:00 after it lets out the bay bridge will be backed up and it's going to be just a nightmare. bart is running longer trains just so you know that would be a really good option if you're headed out the door right now take bart instead of your car to work this morning if you're headed into san francisco. right now we're going to look at our map. show you the circle is where the fire located. now the top line there is broadway. and i would recommend taking that street if you have to get to downtown morning rather than california which is sort of in between. and then the arrow on the bottom that is actually golden gate. i would advise taking that instead of o farrell to get downtown this morning because you really want to try to avoid all the blocks around this fire which is on hyde between sutter and bush this morning. to the bay bridge toll plaza where we had an earlier injury accident has been cleared. but the damage has been done. those metering lights were on early this morning. and your back up is about 15 to 20 minutes all the way to the

macarthur maze. finally 680 traffic getting heavier now but everything is moving along pretty nicely. 6:20. here's steve. all right. tara, thank you. good morning. we have a lot of fog out there. it will burn back very similar to yesterday. i really don't see much change. in fact the coast will get sun later. some of that fog is rather thick. visibility can be less than a quarter of a mile. lot of reports of fog this morning. foggy then sunny and mild to warm. lots of rain in southern california. if you have to head down there you'll deal with rain from somewhere to san diego to palm springs. 60s, 70s and mid to upper 7 0z inland. mt. tamalpais running warmer than yesterday. the fog is getting smashed. it's right on the deck. also means it will be the same on the temperatures. on the highs 40s to low to mid- 50s. see spinning. our change in the weather to the left of your screen that will work its way in tomorrow. drizzle and more fog higher clouds. today areas of fog and sunny for most. looks like not much of a change

reflects their action. >> a month ago when the third uc berkeley graduate was released because of her health, iran formally charged shane and josh with espionage and illegally crossing the border. calling off the search. one reason one group who has searched tirelessly for a missing fremont boy is now shifting focus. >> reporter: flames crawl from floor to floor in a four story building. we're live with an update on a four alarm fire straight ahead.

they need third-degree game. the first one of the home stand. this was clutch. see us in the world series. see us. >> reporter: the last time they were in the world series former giants star barry bonds was there and he was on hand for yesterday's game. he got a round of applause from fans. a crowd of 43,000 mostly giant fans packed at&t ballpark yesterday to watch the giants shut out the phillies 3-0. of course the park filled with orange and black. and fans were going crazy for of course none other than the man who is currently on fire, cody ross. yesterday's shut out gives the giants a 2-1 lead in a series of seven. giants now just two wins away from an appearance in the world series something the club hasn't done since 2002. of course it's been about eight years since the giants played this late in october. which is now a good thing for local businesses as well as fans. >> the last month of the season has been as they say torture. but at the same time the playoffs have been fun to watch. >> normally this time of year we have a term for it called

tumble weed. like the wild west. walk down here and won't see a single person on the block. this is much better, definitely. >> reporter: much better of course because there will be no tumble weeds down here today. fan who is do not have tickets will of course pack local bars and restaurants. today's game starts at 4:57 with joe on the mound for the phillies and madison on for the giants. giants fans are hoping history repeats itself. of course last time they were in a national league championship series they won that series four games to one over the cardinals. can history repeat itself? a lot of giants fans are hoping that definitely will happen. live outside at&t park. i'm paul chambers for ktvu channel 2 news. all right. five families suffered devastating losses in the san bruno pipeline disaster have filed separate lawsuits against pg&e. they want money but they also want pg&e to remove gas lines from the neighborhood. lawsuit says pg&e's pipeline was a ticking time bomb and maintenance was neglected. so far there's been no comment from pg&e. a 19-year-old danville man
