to keep his mind off what happens. it's unclear exactly what they saw. oakland police have information on a suspect but they have yet to release that information. they are asking for the public's help, though. the identity of the woman -- the woman's killer has not been released either. this is the second time in three days the woman has been shot and killed on the streets of oakland. the toddler was unharmed at last check and probably doing okay. a little bit shaken up. crimestoppers is sofering a $10,000 reward for the search for the killer or killers in this case. they bought away in a black four-door sedan, possibly with rust on the car as well. we'll stay on top of this story and give you another update at 8:00. brian flores, ktvu channel 2 news. thank you. 7:31. we're learning more about another shooting in oakland that claimed the life of a 21- year-old woman. police are telling us this killing may have been related

hospital -- had to be taken to the hospital. the line was shut down for three hours. jerry brown will honor two caltrans workers who died on the job. 40-year-old joseph jones and 50- year-old shawn baker were killed yesterday while removing rocks on a hillside south of the oregon/california border. a third worker was injured and is in fair condition. governor jerry brown has ordered flags to be flown at half-staff in their honor. a very important part of san francisco's central subway project arrived at the site early in the morning. claudine wong is in san francisco where mom chung is reporting for duty. good morning, claudine. >> reporter: good morning. there are two drills that will help create the san francisco central subway. both have names. that's a tunneling tradition. the first drilling is behind me. that's mom's chung, you can see the name on the side of that piece. named after the country's first

female asian doctor who had her practice in chinatown. the first piece is here. the second piece will be underground. you can see the ladder up on the side of that. they've been inside that piece prepping it. we wanted to see what it looks like in there. so they did give us a quick peek. it's quick. you can see what part will attach to the drillhead and that be lowered in the ground first. they've been prepping it this morning. we talked to the field service's manager about what they are doing. >> they are cleaning it and prepping it for assembly. they are getting it all cleaned up, getting it ready to be put together. >> reporter: now, getting the pieces together and putting it all together takes time. all of the assembly will take place before ground. they will lower it into a launch box that's 500 feet long and sits 40 feet below ground. it will take four to six weeks

before this drill is ready to go which leads to the question, what takes so long? >> the body of the machine doesn't take that long. we can get the body of the machine together in a couple of weeks. but there's a premen douse amount of computers and hydraulics that need to be installed and then tested. this machine was tested in our factory. it's it's all taken apart, we have to test it again. >> reporter: so here's other numbers for you. the subway system has a $1 moi 5 million price interesting. the. the subway system is scheduled and hopefully will be up and running. this operation is 24/7. but they can actually only shut down the street overnight to put the theses in. so -- the pieces in. so the piece we are looking at won't go in until tomorrow morning. the launch box is about a block away. we're gonna go down there to show you what it looks like

there. if you come off the freeway at 4th and bryant, you might have seen it. but we'll get a better look coming up. live in san francisco, claudine wong, ktvu channel 2 news. >> all right. 7:35. could there soon be relief for air travel? 5800 airline flights suffered delays during the first three days of those fur lees for air traffic controllers. now democrats are supporting bills specifically aimed at easing air travel problems. however, this is putting them at odds with the democratic party leaders saying any response should cover the overall impact of the sequester rather than targeting individual problems like flight delays. any new bill aimed at these problems would likely come to the senate floor after the lawmakers come back from recess. those forced budget cuts are affecting the nation's national parks, including four in the east bay. the eugene o'neill house in danville and the john muir national historic site in martinez, they are gonna have to reduce the number of days

they are open. and they will not be allowed to fill the ranger or the maintenance jobs they currently have open. community programs will be cut atport chicago and at richmond's rosy site. 7:36. we continue our coverage of the boston marathon bombings. investigators say the two bombs used in last week's terrorist attack were triggered by long- range remote controlled devices designed for toy cars. that's a far more sophisticated system than earlier believed and it bolsters the theory, the older suspect received bomb making help during his trip to russia last year. the fbi still believes no foreign terrorist group was involved in the plot. one oakland neighborhood is seeing an increase in burglaries with the addition of new gourmet restaurants. police say there have been at least seven robberies around popular and busy park boulevard in the past week. restaurant workers carrying cash tips and patrons walking

may 7th. let's check in with sal. see what's happening on the roads. >> getting a little bit more crowded around the bay, tori and dave, in general. although we haven't had a lot of crashes. certainly the traffic is beginning to slow down. if you are driving from the carquinez bridge through richmond and pinole. we have slower conditions driving through with traffic that's going to be a little bit slow as well as you get to the bay bridge toll plaza. there are no major problems here. it's backed up for about a 20- minute delay. it was lighter earlier. now it's filled in. also we're looking at the commute on the dumbarton and san mateo bridge. san mateo bridge showing slow traffic getting over to the peninsula. and 101/92 kind of a trouble spot with all of that slow traffic. if you want to avoid that, 280 is a good bet heading down south. let's go to steve. pretty good fog bank out there. not covering everywhere. there are some breaks in the clouds. more towards santa cruz bay and

the coastline. there's fog still monterey and a big fog bank goes north. this looks to be the coolest day. had the fog come up a couple of days ago. had went parallel to the coast. a little slow in southern california said, no, i will take care of that. it's lifted up 3,000, 4,000 feet. it has no problem flying over the coastal hills. 50s on the temperatures. oakland is 58. dave in crockett said it felt mild. but the breeze has been flying through parts of the area. fairfield had gusts of 33. they are all out of the west, most. so there is a sea breeze in place replacing the -- rear placing. overall, the gray skies and again that low that came in, weak as it may be gave some light rain into southern california. very, very cool for this time of year throughout much of the country. in fact, our record lows in

fayetteville, arkansas, 27. just got word, fourth coldest start ever. dallas is in the 50s. denver another cool day. at least it's not snowing. 48 in ukiah. 50s to southern california and then you find the 60s. they are held dune in check by that system. it's now moving into the four corners which will trigger more severe weather. for us you, windy at times. some areas stuck in the gray. temperatures will hard-pressed to warm up. marin county, to very, very low 70s. martinez 66. we go san jose at 70. 72 morgan hill. that's warmer than yesterday. i think they get more son a little bit. peninsula, san mateo, millbrae, burlingame, not much change. a lot of cloe clouds in pacifica and daly city. it does look warmer for thing
