medical center where he died from his injuries. the victim was able to tell police he did not recognize the man who shot him. >> he was conscious and breathing when we arrived. he was able to give us some information. reporter: witnesses say they saw a man wearing very dark clothing running from the scene that fits with the description that the victim was able to give police of the attacker. now, police don't know the motive for this shooting yet or at least they're not revealing it to us. they don't know if this was a robbery or some other type of break-in for some other reason. police don't believe the shooting was gang related and they also say it's not related to another homicide that happened in the same neighborhood about a block away late last month. live in fairfield, allie rasmus, ktvu channel 2 news. time now 4:34. in afghanistan, the protests over the killing of 16 civilians are taking place today. hundreds of students are gathering in the eastern part

claiming the district has more than $30 million in reserves and does not need furlough days. >> it would be fair for us to get something back so that we can start paying our medical bills. we pay for our own medical, the district doesn't pay for that. it takes a long time to do contracts if you don't start until september. we need a two-year deal so they're not wrapped up in it, we're not wrapped up in it, people can get on with their life and know what to expect. >> in recent years, the schools have closed two schools, increased class size and funded a parents sports program. the san francisco school district is facing its own money problems. teachers plan to demonstrate at this evening's board of education meeting. now, they're upset that the district is waiving seniority and is in the process of sending 500 layoff notices to teachers and other staff. however, the board voted to keep 70 teachers in 14 low- performing schools, and some of those educators were hired just

down because of the wet roads. and this is northbound 280 getting up to highway 17. i also want to mention that there is a big rig that went over the embankment or partially anyway southbound 280 on the connector ramp to 380. the big rig is up on its wheels, but it's going to be there for at least another -- chp said it's going to be there for at least another 10, 15 minutes. it's been there since 3:00 this morning. at 4:40, let's go to steve. >> sal, thank you. don't even bother doing your hair today unless you're like me and you have the extra hold in there because look at this. already gusts 50. there'll be a lot stronger than that later on this. is a south wind in advance of the system which is on its way. there's been some rain in advance of it. but this is a slow mover. it's not going to arrive for parts of the south bay until maybe this afternoon if then, so the leading edge is just now moving into the north and this is coming in very slowly to the north bay. this is a computer model forecast for the cloud and rain, your timeline is right below the forecast, tuesday

9:00 a.m. look at that, still the north bay. by noon it's just beginning to move to the coast and watch what happens, finally by 5:00 it starts to move south. so san jose cloudy and windy most of the day. parts of the east bay as well. north bay rain. but now this system, watch, it stalls out. it just sits there, sits there. there's 10:00 tonight through tomorrow morning. see? therein lies the key. if that stalls out, that's something we haven't seen lately and that will give us copeious amounts of rain. due to the cloud cover it's really mild out there. very vigorous system, it'll carve itself out, sending in a series of systems and eventually by the weekend we'll dig in with some extremely cold air. it will start off with the rain and then by the end of the week it'll be more cold. the rainfall projections, the heaviest amounts will be along the coast, north bay and santa cruz mountains. this is into thursday and one to two, probably three north bay, not as much for other

areas. still, a pretty good system here. rain and wind, heavier rain comes in this afternoon unless you're in the north bay, then it starts much earlier. warmer lows with the 50s as you saw. 65 morgan hill, 50s to the north, just too much rain and wind up there. morning rain will take us into wednesday, then a little bit of a break thursday. next system rolls in friday into saturday and then really cold, low snow levels and windy on sunday. ken and pam. >> that's a lot of rain there in that five day. yes, it is, and that's a good thing. we need it. >> yes, we do. 4:43 is the time. 90 delegates are up for grabs in the two republican primaries today. the candidate who needs a win and who's being asked to step aside. equipment stolen from general petraeus little league -- from petaluma little leaguers and how the community is pitching in to help. a crash 280 connector ramp to 380 eastbound in san breuno. we'll tell you what that's doing to traffic heading down the peninsula. cçrrú

reporter: go 80 connector ramp to 380 eastbound, on the way to the airport, really, and the truck went down the embankment, they have a tow truck there and we're just minutes away from it being cleared. it's been out there since about 3:00 this morning. again, this ramp is affected, southbound 280 to the eastbound 380 ramp. if you want to get to the airport and you're leaving san francisco, i would suggest not even bothering with 280 and

using 101. of course the conditions for driving aren't good anyway, so give yourself extra time. at 4:46, let's go back to the desk. >> thank you, sal. pg&e has agreed to pay the city of san bruno $70 for that deadly 2010 pipeline explosion. eight people were killed and dozens of homes destroyed in the blast. but the money will not go directly to the victims. san bruno's city manager says the city will set up a nonprofit and decisions on how to spend the money will be made after a public process. the $70 million settlement is on top of a trust set up by pg&e to pay for infrastructure repairs. yesterday state investigators blasted pg&e for keeping disorganized and difficult-to-access records on its gas pipelines. the california public utilities commission has been investigating whether the company's recordkeeping violated any laws and contributed to the rupture in san bruno. pg&e faces millions of dollars in fines for violating safety rules. a long-time medical

sal, what's happening? reporter: it is wet out there and we have one truck that's flipped off the road in san bruno, southbound 280 connector ramp to eastbound 380, that ramp has been affected by a truck that jackknifed on the ramp. chp just recently told us it should be any moment now when they actually clear this. it's been out there since 3:00. i think the police or the chp is just waiting there for them to clear it and then they can pick up the flares or at least direct traffic to drive through this area. southbound 280 on the 380 ramp which a lot of people use to get to san francisco airport. let's go out and take a look at interstate 880. this traffic here looks okay. it's a little windy this morning, as you might imagine. so watch out for some slow traffic in this -- just in general. this is a look at the bay bridge toll plaza that is light so far, but windy on the span. at 4:55, let's go to steve. >> sal, thank you. very windy in advance of this system which is is marching slowly towards us. the key is that it's going to go so slow it looks like it

will not blast through, so the rainfall amounts could really stack up between today and tomorrow morning. but we have to get it going here and it's just now moving into parts of the north. right now there's some stuff out ahead of it, but the core is back here and that's going to take a while to get here. so as it does, this is our computer model forecast. watch out through 9:00, the timeline is right below the forecast. tuesday at 9:00 still not in the peninsula, east bay, there could be a few light showers, but the main band is is still up in the north bay. eventually by 5:00 tonight, the evening commute, i think, will be a bigger mess than the morning commute, that's for sure. watch how this system -- there's 10:00 tonight and watch how it just doesn't move. very slowly sags south by tomorrow morning. this could be a really big rain producer for the santa cruz mountains, also parts of the north bay and along the coast. 50s in the temps due to that south wind. it's really mild out there. you gotta give this system credit, it's holding together. the core of it, though, or the main band of it, the low is staying to the north until the weekend, then it'll dive. but it's going to send in a series of disturbances not only

today but also probably all the way into friday and saturday. so storms are developing, a stormy week. two to six inches of rain looks very, very likely here. north bay, starts in the north bay and it'll spread tonight into wednesday. we'll get a break thursday before the next system moves in on friday. winter storm warnings out for the sierras. heavy snowfall will be measured in feet. very windy. snowing right now at blue canyon and truckee, but it'll probably going up in advance of the system and go back down tomorrow. heavier rain tomorrow, although the north bay will get in on it sooner. it'll be a cloudy day for the san jose area and later on we'll start to see the rain come in. rain off and on takes us to the end of the week. pam, ken. thank you, steve. the san francisco 49ers did not take long to sign controversial wide receiver randy moss. the 35-year-old worked out yesterday and then signed a one- year contract. moss has played on several teams, including the oakland raiders. he's been criticized in the past for arguing with coaches and not being a team player. but moss says it's a bad wrap.
