questioning. we don't have all of the details about how exactly this shooting unfolded but what we do know is around quartzer to 2:00 this morning gunfire erupted in the area south of market street on sixth and stevenson. police believe there was a shootout between at least two people. we don't know how many casing were found on the ground but two different types of them were discovered at the scene. one matching bullet found in the victims body. the other matching the ones found in the victims pockets. now that victim was driven to san francisco general hospital by a friend at the scene and we understand he has under gone surgery and listed in critical condition. police say he was shot in the face and twice in the side. now the friend pulled right into the emergency drop off area where the car remained for more than two hours and then police have that vehicle towed for evidence and that is because again doctors found bullets in the victims pocket so they are investigating whether he was one of the shooters this morning.

now at this point we don't have a motive for the shooting but we have learned the suspect drove off in a teal colored ford explorer. and again, they are investigating whether this could be connected to another shooting where the same type of bullet casing was found less than half a block away from the scene this morning. so we will keep you posted on that. if you have any information regarding the suspect vehicle or anything about the shooting you're urged to contact san francisco police. live from the hall of justice i'm tara moriarty ktvu channel 2 news. time now 6:03. in a couple hours from right now, the alameda county sheriff may tell us more about the man arrested for the brutal murder of a castro valley woman last week. the body of 58-year-old barbara was found in her san carlos home last week. she was brutally beaten, she was robbed, then her house was set on fire. now she lived with her boyfriend a retired san francisco firefighter. he is not considered a suspect.

last year. there is still remanence of what happened last night. in terms of the numbers we talked to occupy oakland protestors that say the numbers are relatively low because the economy is getting better and occupy oakland is actually working. live here oakland i'm brian flores. >> scott olson took part in last nights march. he is the person that suffered a severe brain injury during a protest last year and says he was hit by a bean bag fired by police. olson was if a wheelchair and wore a safety helmet. he says he still has trouble with his speech but wanted to join in the protest he says to hold police accountable for their actions. time is now 6:06. the giants won again last night. they will be leaving for detroit in a few hours for more of the world series. ktvu claudine wong is joining us live she is at at & t park again where the team will be coming together in a little while. claudine. >> reporter: we do expect the players here in a couple hours. right now we want to take you back into the ballpark.

people. now how many casings were found? we don't know. but two different types were discovered at the scene. one matching the bullets found in the victims body and the other found in the victims pocket. and that discovery obviously made investigators take a closer look at what role the victim played in this shooting. whether he could have been one of the shootersen himself. the victims friend drove him to san francisco general hospital in his blue ford escape. the car was seized as evidence. we unction the victim has under gone surgery. he's listed in critical condition. shot both in the face and twice in the side. now at this point we don't have a motive for the shooting we have learned the suspect drove off in a teal colored ford explorer. again teal colored ford explorer. if you have any information about this shooting, you are urged to contact the san francisco police department. live from the hall of justice i'm tara moriarty. time now 6:35. later today a competency hear willing be held for a former bay area child psychiatrist who

allegedly faked having dementia to avoid prosecution for child molestation. 80-year-old william heir is accused of molesting six patients back in the 1980s. he avoided going to trial because he claimed he was mentally ill. earlier this year doctors may have revealed he faked his illness. if the judge finds out he is mentally competent molestation charges may be reinstated and may go on trial. south bay police are searching for a serial bank robber. janine de la vega just spoke with police and joins us now from campbell with what they said. janine. >> reporter: the police sergeant told me they are working very closely with the three other police departments to catch this man. he also said that this serial bank robber acted the same way in all the cases. he's very low key. he basically approaches the tellurian hands over a note demanding money. now here's a photo caught from

surveillance video of the suspect from the most recent robbery in sunnyvale. he is a white man in his 30s. he stands 5'8" or about 5'10" tall. he has a stalky build and a gotee. now investigators say they do not have a photo of that type of car that he leaves in. they're not sure if he is leaving on foot. while he hasn't used in any weapons in any of the robberies police do not want this to escalate. if you have seen the man or have any information you are asked to call campbell police or if you want to remain anonymous call crime stoppers. reporting live from campbell janine de la vega. hurricane sandy passing

through haiti and left heavy floods and devastation in its wake. the haitian government activated a red alert system yesterday meaning all emergency services on stand by. hundreds of families had to be evacuated. bridges in several cities collapsed. so far three people are reported dead. now emergency preparedness teams in new jersey are already filling and handing out sandbags even though hurricane sandy is unlikely to hit there for a few more days. the storm is expected to hit two other big weather systems off the mid atlantic coast creating what one forecaster calls a frankenstorm. it's likely to be a monster and stay around through halloween. and steve was telling me they are talking about closing schools up and down the coast there and the stock exchange possibly. >> this could be really huge. time now 6:38. let's see what is happening in our commute. you're watching the toll plaza; right? >> we are. as a matter of fact, we are looking at it because it's become a lot busier now in the last few minutes here as you

can see it's backed up beyond the 880 overcrossing. but the good news if you look over to the left this is one of the tricks i use to see how deep this backup is going to go. coming in from the 880 ramp not that bad. not quite there yesterday. also this morning we are looking at northbound 101 and southbound 101 in san francisco. that is northbound 101 on your left. you can see traffic looks good up to the downtown area. if you are driving in san jose, we've had a good start to the southbound commute. a little slowing on 101. southbound 880 from 238 down to 92 some slow traffic there. and 580 come into livermore it will be slow from 205 on. let's go to steve. thank you, sal. a very good morning. happy friday. everything is looking good for sunshine here. a little chill in the morning air. rain is out of the picture. we do have mostly clear skies here and rather colder lows compared to yesterday. good 10-15-degrees.

there be lots of sunshines today and warming up. there is a breeze but it's more out to the valley from stockton to sacramento and northwest 10 after that not too bad. maybe a little out toward antioch, brentwood. a little northerly breeze for some. higher elevations also dealing with that. but the system responsible for this weeks rain is out and high pressure is building in. that means temperatures will be warming up. no doubt about it. game three the forecast looks good but cold. excuse me 40s for temps. maybe even upper 30s. sunday clouds will roll in. so far we're keeping the forecast dry. they're not keeping the forecast dry from hurricane sandy which continues to be near the bahamas moving north. category one. winds 80 miles an hour. but really it's merging with a colder system coming out of the great lakes and there in lies the rub. it could be a absolute whopper of a system and all signs there is not a total consensus on it. there is a general consensus. but between now and wednesday morning 13 inches of rain forecasted for new jersey and

new york. so this would be an absolute maybe once in a century system if it continues to march in and do who it's supposed to do. it's a whopper. 40s on the temps or 50s for us here locally. cool, cool readings. high pressure says no i'm sending everything north as far as clouds go. 70s. days are getting shorter. we need a little northerly breeze. nights are longer. morning lows will be cool. does look like increasing clouds tuesday maybe rain wednesday. 6:41 is the time. san francisco city college considering major budget cuts. the controversy surrounding the cults and how students could be impacted. the cleanup process has oregon from a major anniversary last night from occupy oakland. we'll tell you all about the aftermath coming up. traffic on interstate 880 looks pretty good if you are driving to and from oakland. we'll tell you more about the morning commute.
