cole through the damage of the garage of the home on maywood way. the property was recently purchased and the new owner was renovating the property. the fire broke out at 3:00 a.m. and spread from the garage of that home quickly to the home right next door at 33 maywood way. the couple inside of 33 maywood way know noticed the flames and c alled 911. dispatch had already been n otified. pg&e show shut off power to both homes. no other homes were affected. the battalion chief spoke to us early had morning -- early this morning. >> this is on top of the hill, on top of the ridge. so we encourage all people, all residents, to have smoke

agencies. >> they tried to gps and finally we went on foot. >> search teams finally found the man's body in some rough terrain. several hundred feet below the highway. the coroner has not yet released his name. claudine wong is live in oakland and brings us all of the details on a continuing investigation involving a s hooting. >> reporter: good morning. at this point, the search is on for the gunman or gunmen who put these six people in the h ospital. at this point it does appear there's more than one. we can toe somehow -- we can show you the van. that's where police say the gunman were standing when the shots were fired. the victims were found on 89th avenue. if you take a look at the

glass, it's right before that stop sign marker o the ground. that's-- on the ground. there there is a sixth victim in all of this. it appears he was just caught on the crossfire. we took a look at the three houses on 89th. we did find bullet holes. police say one man, an innocent victim who just happened to be in his living room was hit by a stray bullet in the back. the other victims were all outside the house. one neighbor told us moments before the gunfire erupted. she heard a car drive up, two or three, and then she also b elieves the gunman fired back. >> you could hear them shooting and then, like, from a different angle is the shooting back. >> reporter: a lot of shots.

>> yeah. >> reporter: she also said after the gunfire stopped, she heard the car doors open again and then the car drive slowly away. it took some time for police to nick out how many victims were hit in this gunfight. one man was driven to the hospital by someone else. two other victims were found later. all in the hospital are listed as critical to stable. >> everyone we've talked to heard those shots fired. there were multiple shots. what we're gonna do is talk to a couple more neighbors out here and head to the police department. we know investigators were walk, -- working on this all night, chasing down leads. and we'll keep you updated on "mornings on 2." claudine wong, ktvu channel 2 news. >> 7:06. changes are coming to the silver and black. the raiders have cut head coach tom cable loose. the team announced yesterday, they would not exercise the t wo-year, $5 million option on

cable's contract which expired on sunday. this year, they went 8-8 without losing a game in their division. however, the raiders still didn't make the playoffs. this morning, we talked to fans who had a variety of opinions. >> i think cable did a pretty decent job with what he had to work with when he was here. but you have to move on sometimes. i think it's a good move. >> i think they should give him another chance, he's 8-8. he should have gotten another chance. >> cable coached the raiders to a 7-27 record since september of 2008 when he was promoted to head coach. several sources say al jackson will promote hugh jackson to head coach -- al davis will promote hugh jackson

to head coach. we have developing news coming from castro valley. crews are busy. they are trying to cap an early- morning water main break. what you are looking at is video we've received within the past hour. it's a mess. you can see right there, the water is causing a mess on the roadway. gurgling up there, the street is on the main drag if you drive in and out of castro valley. cleanup crews hope to have all of the automaticker removed from this busy roadwork. let's check in with sal to get an update on the rest of the commute. >> right now, traffic is moving along pretty well. it's slower in contra costa county. we're always checking highway 4 and as you drive up to the will lee pass grade. that's become heavier. also this morning we're looking at the bay bridge toll plaza. yesterday, it was busier.

there is a little bit of a backup, though. it's not quite as -- well, it's not quite as bad as it was yesterday. of course, we're always watching the hayward commute. southbound 880 at 92, they've cleared an accident from 92 there. it's gone. but traffic slow from a street heading doubt down to fremont. if you are driving in the south bay, for the most part it still looks like a decent commute. let's go to steve. all right. clearing skies. 20s, 30s. we have areas of fog but once that lift and burns off, a few locations will get in the upper 50s and 60s. but if the fog persists, it will be tough to get past 52, 53. fog, nights, morning. no change in that until s unday/monday. it seems to be getting lower and thicker. but until about 10:00 some of that hangs on. so the visibility can be a quarter mile or less. fog and cold with hazy

sunshine. more fog tomorrow. cold, sunny and mild. not warm yet. but in the sun it feels pretty good. next rain maybe tuesday. looks good. wouldn't change anything maybe just jot it down if you -- if you work outside. 29 sonoma and kentwood, gilroy and east petaluma. other observer tracy, sent me an e-mail. novato 7. sancarlos and hp, potrero hill checking in at 38. the two coldest locations i could find. napa's in there, livermore, concord, fairfield's not far away, san rafael, 30s along with oakland, hayward, redwood city, san jose and mountain v iew. sfo says 48. that's the parmest. the city is officially at 4. six up in tahoe. 20 in reno. 30 through las vegas. also down to southern california until you hit san

diego. 28 in redding and 25 in ukiah. there is the source of the high clouds from the system way up north in seattle. for us, there is a little low down in l.a. and san diego. for us it's a dry pattern. maybe until tuesday. morning fog, though, not going anywhere. the high hanging out around the oregon border. puts some stakes down and says, i'll hang out here for a little bit. 29 to 45. foggy, cold in the morning. by noon, most of that fog will be burning off. we'll go with upper 50s to near 60. santa clara valley, peninsula and a little bit on the coast. fairfield, only 52. hayward, 55. a little warmer. sanjose, 59, half moon bay, 58. morgan hill to gilroy, 59. no change to saturday and cooler and breezy on sunday. tori? >> thank you, steve. there why plenty of people

hoping to have a megamillions ticket. two tickets were sold. one in ohio, the other in washington, d.c. this ticket was the fourth l argest in u.s. history and the second largest in megamillions history. there are still other prizes. the winning numbers are afternoon -- are on your screen right now, 4, 8, 15, 25, and 47. the megaball number was 426789 there were ten tickets sold in california that match the five regular numbers but not the regular numbers. you still earn a bunch of cash. >> yeah. well, the new, more republican congress starts work today 234 washington, d.c. how the gop is using social networking to bring politics to the people. you want some fiber one honey clusters?

yeah. you must really care about him. what? no, no. you gave him fiber. no she didn't. this tastes way too good to be fiber. they're delicious crunchy clusters with sweet honey and half a day's worth of fiber. you care about my fiber? not really. i care about your fiber too. i have for a while. ok, carl. why don't you care about her fiber? hey carl.

[ male announcer fiber one. cardboard no. delicious yes.

good morning. cold. >> a pretty picture, steve. 7:15. well, a new era in washington, d.c. starts today. republicans take over the house and nancy pelosi steps down as house speaker. let's go to alison burns in our d.c. bureau with all of the details. good morning, allison. >> reporter: well, good morning to you, dave. that's right. let's get right to a look inside the capitol, where, at this h our, the 43 members of the congressional black caucus

are participating in a ceremonial swearing in. outgoing speaker and c ongresswoman, nancy pelosi, is about to address this group. today she hands over her s peaker's gavel and barbara lee gives up her job as head of the black caucus as republicans take over the house. now, in a few hours, ohio republican congressman, john boehner, will be sworn in as speaker of the house. here he is arriving for a prayer service near the capitol this morning. he's planning a push for 20 days to undue president obama's agenda and repeal healthcare reform. i will have more on what he and pelosi are saying this morning in my next update, in about an hour. we're just hearing now that robert gibbs, the white house

spokesman, is moving on. incoming house speaker, john boehner, will make today's first investigation a social networking event. online viewers will be able to watch the house of representatives to republican control on the facebook page. this begins at 9:00 a.m. senator dianne feinstein will not be joining her $leagues for the start of the new congress today -- her colleagues for the part start of the new congress today that's because she's having knee surgery. she will be unable to travel to washington for a bit and will work from home. two chinese companies connected to the cosco busan

oil spill in the bay area, well, they've agreed to a multi- million dollar payout to bay area fishermen. the cosco busan crashed and spilled fuel in the bay back in 2007. $307million settlement will be split and attorneys are asking for a separate judgment on attorney costs and legal fees 7:18. the highway patrol is defending its decision to close the grapevine last weekend.

the storm dumped five to eight inches of snow on the i-5. it was shut down until about noon for about 24 hours. some say the storm was only minor and the highway should have remained open. but the chp says with the steep glades and heavy -- grades and the heavy holiday traffic, the closure was necessary. federal prosecutors are looking into reports that sanitation workers deliberately took their time to shovel snow to protest recent layoffs. one congressman took video and rwarded this and said criminal charges could be filed. if you show under for work and did not do your job and took a paycheck, you have stolen from the city.

the sanitation workers union say the claims are false. 7:19. well, pg&e says it will continue smartmeters in parts of marin county despite last night's vote by officials to approve a moratorium on smart meters. about 50 people packed the board of supervisors meeting y esterday. opposing the smartmeters. many are worried about what they believe is radiation coming from the devices. the state's public utilities commission has the authority over smartmeters so pg&e does not have to stop installing t hem. at least not yet. the marin county supervisors have also decided to delay a decision on whether or not to ban plastic bags at grocery stores. yesterday, the board decided to study the environmental impact of paper bags before deciding the fate of plastic bags. the supervisors will revisit and take up the issue again on january 25th. 7:20. a father is temporarily spared deportation but it's because of

a tragic fire and the fire's devastating effect on his f amily. also, it could soon cost you more to take a cab in san francisco. why the cabdriver's union says fares have to go up. good morning. westbound 237. there it is. that familiar slow traffic, u nfortunately. we'll run that down and give you another look at the morning commute straight ahead.

the moment you feel run down or achy nip flu-like symptoms in the bud, with oscillococcinum. get oscillo and feel like yourself again. oscillococcinum, nip it in the bud.

investigators in east palo alto hope it will help them find the person who started a fire at city hall. it forced the cancellation of the meeting. it started yesterday in a trash bin. smoke began to pour into the first-floor lobby, forcing the evacuation of several dozen people. immigration authorities are currently escorting a man to the bay area so he can attend the funeral of his 3-year-old

daughter who died in an apartment fire in oakland last week. little yvonne benevidas died in the fire last thursday on 82nd street along with her mother and a man who was also living in the apartment. yvonne's 7-year-old sister survived. nelson, the father of the two girls, was scheduled to be d eported to el salvador. he will now be able to i tend yvonne's funeral. taxi pates in san francisco could be going up. the municipal transportation board agency agreed to formally consider a meter right hike. the last me rates were raised was eight years ago. cabs typically charge $2.25 a mile. the union of the cabdrivers says because of an increase in gas prices and living expenses and cab rental costs. it's harder for drivers to make a respectable wage. the says any taxi hike

should be moderate. no date has been scheduled to consider that rate increase. 7:24. this morning, no major problems are being reported on highway 101 in sonoma county where caltrans reopened lanes that were closed because of a major pothole repair project. crews closed the southbound lanes at rohnert. it's a conation of a project that started last month. 7:24. let's see if everybody is b ehaving on the roads. how is it looking, sal? >> tori just asked me during the message system and i will answer the whole world and tori and dave, the southbound roadwork that we just showed has been slowing traffic, although they've been -- they've tried to do a lot of it off-peak time. it's still a little bit slow through rohnert park and this week it's been getting bussier

let's take a look at -- busier. let's take a look at 880 t raffic. yesterday was terrible. today it's much better as drive through oakland. also, the morning commute looks okay at the toll plaza. it seems better than it was yesterday. yesterday, we had a backup to the overcrossing. today it's about ten minutes or so, maybe a little bit less than that. the morning commute looks okay. northbound 280 still looking good. we don't have too much going on yet. now, let's go to steve. areas of fog. cold temperatures, 20s and 30s. we'll have mostly sunny skies. a little band of high clouds kind of coming down. but no big deal. some of that fog is working down the ground. once it burns off, things should be good to go.

napa airport, 30. a couple of upper 20s, livermore is 31. everyone here in the 0s except sfo which is 48. but-- 30s except sfo which is 48. more tre row hill at 38 -- potrero hill at 38. stanford, 33. gilroy, petaluma, 32 and s onoma/kenwood, 29. cold! 6 in tahoe. 19 reno. 28 redding. cold there, cold until you hit san diego, a balmy 51. it looks like a low will spin in and bring us some rain. not us, though. high pressure says i'm gonna stick around. 50 to 60. 52 fairfield. oakland, 57. 56, richmond. santarosa, 57. 59, san jose. 56 for los gatos, santa cruz and half moon bay. not much of a change at all. maybe a little bit cooler and breezy, sunday and monday.

>> thank you, steve. a marin county police officer finds himself on the other side of the law. and what stanford is urging students to do this morning following a frightening attack. the heated debate over who should be interim mayor of san francisco, as a front-runner emerges.

welcome back. six people were wounded on "d" street. five victims were gunned down on the street. the sixth victim was hit in the back by a stray but as he sat in his own living room. still not clear what led up to the shooting. claudine wong has been on the story all morning. she'll have more details coming up at 8:00. a san rafael police officer has been placed on administrative leave after being arrested on suspicion of threatening a man with a gun. police say officer michael a gustas got into an argument with a man at a petaluma restaurant on new year's eve and pulled out a handgun. if prosecutors charge him with assault with a deadly

weaponnen, he could face up to -- weapon, he -- he could face prison time. a cell phone is giving us a controversial look at a s hooting. officers were confronting a man in a wheelchair late morning. investigators say he had just stabbed a police officer after slashing some car tires. police chief george gascon says this video does not tell the whole story. >> the video showing us the focus of the camera of the e vent, it shows one point of view. we're not seeing what the officers are seeing. we're not seeing what the officers are thinking about, obviously. >> this is the second o fficer- involved shooting in san francisco within the past week. both appear to involve people with serious mental health p

rob -- problems. the san francisco board of supervisors will meet again in a special session, they will take a final vote on who will be the inmayor for gavin newsom. the supervisors narrowed the field down to two candidates -- city administrator, ed lee, and sheriff, mike hennessey. after several rounds of voting, ed lee has emerged as the f ront-runner. >> we ostensibly had a p rogressive majority on this board of supervisors we had the opportunity and we made the biggest fumble in san francisco political history. >> well, in the end, the board scheduled a special meeting for 3:00 p.m. on friday to hold a final vote. it appears at the moment city administrator ed lee has the required sixth vote needed but he's right now traveling in

hong kong. some supervisors said they w anted to talk to him directly before they cast final votes. even if the supervisor select lee on friday, it will be l argely symbolic because mayor newsom has not left office yet to take his new position as the lieutenant-governor. a meeting tonight in san bruno will focus on what to do with $38 0,000 in donations for victims of the pipeline explosion. the disaster occurred four months ago on september 9th. some survivors say the money should have been distributed to victims along -- a long time a go. they didn't want to make any m istake on how the money was used. residents will have a chance to offer their suggestions and the sit council is expected to make a final decision next tuesday. in the meantime, two san bruno women are the first of several people to be convicted of trying to steal money meant for blast victims. prosecutors say sonya smith and

lisa johnson lived five miles from the explosion but signed up for aid with pg&e for a ddresses -- with' doctors in i n-- with addresses inside the zone. police in stanford are e ncouraging people to walk in -- too walk in pairs this morning. kraig debro has more. >> reporter: it happened near sara and campus. apparently, as you said, a woman was walking across the campus and a man came up from behind her, according to the police report we saw. the man placed his hand over the woman's mouth and she either t ried to bite him or did bite him. he got scared and ran away. this is the intersection of campus and sara. but beyond that, there is a gas station. and further up, there is even a

police station. we understand the woman went to the emergency room and aparty -- phobe and alerted -- phone and alerted them that way. we got a couple of calls trying to figure out what happened. police at stanford university urging students to walk in p airs. 6:40 p.m. is dark, as you know. at that time of the day, it would have been dark and would have been provided an opportunity -- would have provided an opportunity for answers. a volunteer youth minister at a san jose church is facing child molestation charges. the 2-year-old man was arrested in las vegas last -- the 32- year-old man was arrested in las vegas last night. police say he molested two boys between january of 2009 and june of that year. investigators believe the m

olestations happened away from the property and officers also believe there may be more v ictims. welcome back. the holiday shopping season was a green one, that's according to master card. analysts at master card who track all of the spending data including cash, say sales increased at the fastest rate in five years. that's despite that east coast blizzard that made it tough for a lot of shoppers to go out a nd -- shoppers to go out and get to the stores. the top purchases in 2010 were shoes, clothing and electronics. also, 2010 may have been a turnaround for unemployment. it's reported that companies cut nearly 50,000 jobs last year but that's actually 59% better than the number of planned layoffs the month before. the lowest total since 1997. a couple of people we know

won't be looking for jobs. we're talking about the megamillions winners. we just found out two tickets were sold for the megamillions jackpot. one was in idaho. one was in the state of washington. we just found out it was bought at a safeway in the town of a freda. if anyone knows anyone there, give them a call. >> yes. your long lost friend -- >> right. [ laughter ] let me help you out here. i want to show you some live pictures of the bay bridge. it's become a little more c rowded. it's about a five, ten-minute delay. it's only backed up to the middle of the parking lot. not too bad. also this morning, golden gate bridge looks like the right lane near the toll plaza shut down for -- maybe they are fixing one of the toll boths but it really hasn't affected the golden gate bridge too much.

this looks good to the doyle drive ir-- doyle drive area. 208 is a little slow, heading down to 17. 85 backed up from 17 all the way up into cupertino. let's go to steve. thank you, sal. >> good morning, everyone. we have mostly clear skies. a little band of high clouds coming by. some areas of fog. by don't have any fog. i know it's cold, 20s and 30s. we are getting close to 60. we had one yesterday, that was santa cruz. mountain view, sunnyvale, very close today. some of that fog -- you know, what? east bay, mainly solano county, contra costa county, the fog is just slow to burn 0. that means upper 40s, low 50s. visibility, less than a quarter after mile. so some patchy dense fog. but overall, that easterly breeze helps. so by the coast, even half moon

bay beginning to worm up. the sun feels really good. but the nights have been -- there's that damp cold going on. fog and cold, hazy sunshine. more fog and cold tomorrow. probably no change until sunday. then we'll get a little bit of a northwesterly breeze. the end result will be just cooler and breezy for us. maybe tuesday, some light rain. it looks very weak. there's nothing that looks s olid. that would be the first sign of anything and even that looks rather ho-hum. a lot of 30s. 39 redwood city, mountain view, that's moffet. it runs closer because -- warmer because it's closer to the bay. napa, 37. sonoma and kenwood, 29. now, that's not in the square in sonoma. but still close enough. stanford is at 3. menlo park, 35. san anselmo, 37. sancarlos, 37 and in the city,

proposition -- whether proposition 8 sponsors have the authority to defend the measure. the issue came up after jerry brown refused to repeal the decision striking down rights. >> we want to make sure, any decision they reach, if it's gonna be overturned, it will be overturned on the merits. and not because the litigants don't have standings. the state supreme court has more deadline to come up with an answer. for more on the prop 8 decision and background on the legal c ase, look for the gay marriage tab. well, eric mahrs is s huffling about an interview he
