you are looking live at a big traffic problem in oakland right now. dozens of cars have flat tires after driving on 880 in oakland. we'll go right to sal for more on that. good morning. welcome to "mornings on 2." i'm tori campbell. >> i'm dave clash. let's get right to this developing situation in oakland. >> that's right. this crash in oakland, we're actually looking at the problem where southbound 880 several cars had flat tires because of debris in the road. tara moriarty is just about to have a report from the scene. we're also looking at live pictures of newschopper2. a violent crash in san francisco that finally -- they've reopened lombard street. it was lombard at franklin. we have the video we were talking about. these are live pictures from another crash. this is a fatal crash. you can see east 80 at lagoon valley road.

we've been talking about this. it's still a traffic alert on the scene. this car flipped over. there was a person trapped inside. this is fairfield, east 80 at lagoon valley road. the traffic will be slow as we move to the left. you can see the traffic on east 80 is narrowed down here. fortunately, the westbound direction which is at the top of your screen still looks good past the scene. we'll keep on top of this. 7:01. back to the desk. thank you, sal. we do have a changing forecast today after yesterday's sunshine very calm conditions and warm temperatures. it will be cooler and breezy. i think a few locations windy. the wind is definitely picking up for a few areas. all courtesy of this weak system. this time of year that's all it takes. winds on the bay will pick up. for the america's cup, i expect things to get over 25, 30 miles an hour later on this afternoon, mainly a northerly direction once this system goes through. mostly fair. there are some partly cloudy skies in the north bay. mild lows for some. a little cooler by the coast.

mostly sunny but breezy and cooler. some 50s to the north. but a lot of 60s. temperatures hovering around 60 or upper 50s for many locations. it's because of that system. once it goes by, it will be sunny. the breeze will kick in. it will be a rather robust breeze. sun and clouds, high clouds. cooler for some. i think a good, 5, 7 compared to yesterday. we had 80, 85. a lot of 60s to low 70s. back to the desk. >> thank you, steve. 7:03. two men are in custody this morning after a deadly crash that killed one person in oakland. now police say the suspects in the crash could be linked to another crime scene. ktvu channel 2 reporter alex savidge has more on the events that led up to the death of a man in his 70s. good morning, alex. >> reporter: well, good morning. two men on the run after a shooting slammed their suv into another car according to police, killing an innocent driver. a sergeant out at the scene told me the victim in this case

is believed to be about 75 years old and lived in oakland. the deadly crash happened about 10:30 last night on bancroft avenue right next to eastmont mall. the victim was driving a subaru station wagon that round up on. roof. police say a red suv broadsided the car on its driver's side. the sergeant said the suv had two men inside possibly involved in a shooting minutes earlier and not far away. police think those men opened fire on an empty suv that was parked on the 11,000 block of 82nd avenue. no one was hit by gunfire at the scene. it's unclear exactly what prompted the shooting. while those two men were on the run following the shooting, they slammed into the car at a nearby intersection leaving the driver dead. the man killed has not been identified. the two men involved in the shooting and the crash were both taken into custody by officers there at the crash scene and the sergeant told me that both of them in all likelihood will be facing

vehicular manslaughter charges. we're live this morning in downtown oakland, alex savidge, ktvu channel 2 news. police detained four people after a high-speed chase on i- 80 with speeds topping 100 miles an hour. it started at 9:00 last night in elk grove after the chp tried to make a traffic stop. the driver kept going and hit another car before the chase came to an end in vacaville. the driver and three passengers were detained. no one was hurt. also new this morning, two people are recovering in the hospital after being shot in east palo alto. police say a man and a woman were sitting in their car when they were hit by gunfire around 1:30 this morning on university and michigan avenues. beeth victims were shot -- both victims were shot in the arm. police say the suspects may be driving a white, newer model camry with tinted windows. a 16-year-old boy is recovering after being shot in the face with a pellet gun during an armed robbery in east

palo alto. this happened around 9:15 on manhattan and woodland avenues. police say two suspects demanded money from the teenager, then fired a shot from the pellet gun, hitting him under his right eye. the teenager was rushed to the hospital. anyone with information on the shooting is asked to contact east palo alto police. 7:06. investigators in oakland are going back to the scene of a huge fire at an historic church. it happened yesterday afternoon at the zion first church of god and christ, right near the west poekd b.a.r.t. station. last night, ktvu was given an inside look at the damage at this 97-year-old church. the flames moved fast and gutted cherished items that can't be replaced. bishop james watson showed us the rubble. >> it's way up there. there's a grand piano right where that guy is, a grand piano right there, and kind of

where that piece is coming out, that's where the or organ was was. >> damage estimated at about $900,000. well, the troubled oakland police department, still dealing with tragedy within the own ranks. there have been two officer suicides in the past two months. oakland right now provides several mental health services to police officers. that's standard for almost all major u.s. cities. there is a growing call to do more for an under why staff -- understaffed police department in what is called california's most violent city. palo alto city council is cracking down on construction companies who leave projects unfinished. ktvu channel 2 reporter janine de la vega is live with the action the city is taking to keep abandoned buildings from becoming eyesores. good morning. >> reporter: good morning neighbors say they are fed up

with this construction project on mariposa avenue sitting here for several years. they told me in the last 20 minutes that they've seen kids sneaking in here and they suspect drug activity is going on here. residents on mariposa avenue say they want all of this to stop and they applaud the action the city took last night. the palo alto weekly reported that last night the council voted to set time limits for building permits and explore penalties for delinquent projects. council members say the unsecured buildings can present numerous safety concerns that lead to unlawful activities. neighbors who live near one of these sites describe what it has been like. >> i'm pretty sure it's been at least five years. the neighbors at a certain point signed a petition and sent a letter to the people who own it or are building it and didn't really get a response.

>> reporter: under current law, building projects have no time line requirements. leaders acknowledge there are numerous projects sitting idle for years. once this ordinance is drafted in palo alto, it will only apply to future and not existing projects. so that was somewhat of a disappointment for some of the residents that i spoke to who were jogging by this morning. but they are still happy, again, that the city council did something about this. reporting live from palo alto, janine de la vega, ktvu channel 2 news. happening right now -- president obama addressing the united nations' general assembly. a lot of speculation on what his speech will focus on that he will be discussing. that obviously is not president obama. but a lot of speculation the president may meet with iran's new president he's also scheduled to address the united

nations today. he has said he wants to introduce the real face of iran to the world as a country that "loves culture and peace." president obama is stepping up to the microphone right now. let's listen in. >> fellow delegates, ladies and gentlemen, each year, we come together to reaffirm the founding vision of this institution. for most of recorded history, individual aspirations were subject to the wins of tyrants and empires, the different vision of race, religion were settleled through the sword and the clash of armies. the idea that nations and people could come together in peace [audio difficulties] >> it seemed unimaginable. it took the awful carnage of two world wars to shift our

thinking. the leaders who built the united nations were not naive. they did not think this body could eradicate all wars. but in the wake of millions dead and continents and rubble, and with the development of nuclear weapons that could annihilate a planet, they understood that humanity could not survive the course it was on. so they gave us this institution, believing it could allow us to resolve conflicts and force rules of behavior and build habits of cooperation that would grow stronger over time. for decades, the united nations has, in fact, made a difference from helping, educating children, brokering peace. but like any generation of leaders, we face new and profound challenges. this body continues to be

tested. >> you are listening live to president obama speaking -- just beginning his speech before the united nations talking about the creation of the united nations and how it has made a difference over the decades, talking about the challenges it's facing. one of them syria. he's expected to talk about the crisis in kenya where a mall was taken over, iran, a lot of topics he will be discussing. >> we have a reporter who will give us highlights coming up later in our newscast. still ahead -- from casual carpooler to robbery victims. the likely reason nine commuters were targeted in rockridge and how some of them managed to escape. good morning. right now traffic is going to be busy in some areas around the bay, still looking at slow traffic as you drive through. we'll tell you where the hot spots are -- coming up. a little band of high clouds moving through.

partly cloudy, mostly sunny, it's not going to bring us rain. but it will bring a good drop on some of the temperatures and the wind. i will have details on both.

replaced. >> we bid against kawasaki, bmw, i think yamaha. when it came down to it, harley was the only manufacturer that could meet the criteria that the chp had set. >> some say the cost of maintaining the older bmw motorcycles may have been a factor in making the switch. the new harleys come with a three-year, 60,000 mile warranty. the chp and sal have been very busy. what are you focusing on now? >> we're looking at the toll plaza. it's been busy drying to get into san francisco. it's filled in, backed up for a 25-minute delay to get on the bridge. we had the earlier problem on 880 near high traffic. traffic is light near the coliseum. coming up in a few we'll hear from tara as to what she found out about the cars that were pulled over with flat tires. livermore valley, very heavy traffic this morning.

not only from the altamont pass but into livermore. 680 out of pleasanton is slow. and 880 is very slow, as you can see from hayward, all the way down to fremont. let's go to steve. it will be a breezy and windy day for some. and a cooler pattern. on the bay i expect the wind to cavg up. small craft advisory starts at noon. i think by noon later this afternoon. this time of year, it doesn't matter if it's a weak front there's a big difference in the temperatures. it will plunge in very, very cool air. the wind speed, it will be a northerly direction later on. i expect that to crank up there. not only on the bay but some of the higher elevations showing gusts 30, 35 miles an hour. 58 san francisco to start. we'll go for 68 on a high after yesterday's 76. it will be cooler, mostly clear that little band of high clouds, won't last too long. cooler and breezy is the main

message or downright windy for a few. our system does have a little more punch up toward the sierra and also northeast california. for us we'll get the high clouds and the cooler conditions. 58 in tahoe. the south wind will do that every time. that's why they've rocketed it up from 48. it looks like the high clouds are starting to clear. much warmer lows. ocean temperatures are between 59 and 62. you get a little south wind. the combination of those two gives us a mild warning. a little bit stronger breeze in fairfield. the wind picking up. napa west at 8. sfo, chris richardson, brisbane, he expects a windy day. and i would concur that. sfo all the way up to livermore, when it gets thattest with wind, that's a signed of things to come. there's not a lot for it. what's over us will clear up. very, very cold air. this will plunge on top of us.

it will clear out of mendocino and lake county. picking up a little bit on the sierra nevada. more likely late tomorrow, tomorrow for any shower activity -- late tonight, tomorrow for any shower activity. sunny, warm. some very cool air begins to plunge into northern california and also up in the sierra nevada. again, we're on the western edge of it. if you are up in tahoe or truckee, mainly wind. scattered showers tomorrow. lowering snow level around 6,000, 6500 feet.  sun and clouds. high clouds in the morning. they will be out of here. it will be cooler. upper 70s for some. very few low 80s. i think we'll take a pretty good dip on these temperatures compared to yesterday where we had 80, 85, 86. a few low 80s holding on. i think they will be soft 80s. 60s, 70s, coast, peninsula. much cooler tomorrow, breezy to windy. you will feel that northerly direction. we'll start to rebound a little bit on thursday. it calms down and warms up as

we go into the weekend. >> all right. thank you, steve. beaten into a coma. the confrontation that police say put a pleasanton man in the hospital and is prompting a search for a group of teenagers. the terrifying stories of the survivors of that deadly mall attack in kenya.

welcome back. conflicting reports this morning about that deadly shopping mall takeover in kenya. government authorities say they've secured the mall. however, the islamist militant group behind the attack says hostages are still being held and that they are holding their ground against the government forces. we're also starting to hear some horrifying stories from people who survived the attack. one couple, radio broadcasters, they were hosting a children's cooking competition in the mall when the shooting started. >> we said get down, get down

on the floor. just as we did that, the gunman tossed a grenade to where we were. >> kenya's foreign minster says two or three americans are among those who took part in the shopping mall attack. she said the americans were young men, 18 to 19 years old, of somali or arab origin and lived in minnesota and one other place in the u.s. the extremist and ken yawn military are both using twitter to send information out to the rest of the world. tech analysts says several accounts have been shut down by the militants only to see them quickly replaced. the chinese government will make available some social media websites that are currently banned but only under limited condition. a hong kong newspaper reports facebook, twitter and other

sites considered sensitive will be accessible in a new free trade zone in shanghai. the idea of unblocking websites in the free trade zone is to make foreigners feel more comfortable. the zone is scheduled to launch on sunday. california's new eraser law will give children and teenagers a way to remove embarrassing things they've posted online. governor brown signed a bill into law that requires the removal of online activity if a minor requests it. facebook and twitter already offer ways to erase content for people of all ages. the new law will not apply to posts by other people. it takes effect in 2015 for anyone under the age of 18. time is 7:25. in the america's cup, the boats are back in the water today as the yacht racing heads into its 18th day. yesterday oracle team usa scored the fifth straight victory against emirate's team after a slight wind delay

there. the second race was postponed until today. the score sounds 8-6 with team new zealand only needing one more wind to take the cup. the racing is due to continue today at 1:15. this america's cup is the longest running in history. that means it's good news for san francisco businesses. we checked out prices and availability at some of the hotels in san francisco yesterday. the hotel batali on the waterfront is charging 600 bucks a night. the fairmont hotel and the hyatt are fully booked and not knowing when the cup will end is keeping the prices high. >> if you are booking a hotel at the last minute and they are sold out, it's equivalent to buying a plane ticket at the last night. >> people are not just staying inside hotel rooms. instead, they are out exploring

the city and spending money. so far at this point, we have no estimate on how much money the america's cup is bringing to the city. it is 7:26. a deadly shooting in san francisco. what the young victim was doing moments before the gunfire. >> reporter: we're live in oakland, where the chp has figured out exactly what caused more than a dozen cars to get flat tires along a major freeway. good morning. it's pretty busy out there on some of these commutes as we take a live look at 280 getting into the valley. i will tell you how slow it will be on some of the other slow routes. a band of high clouds going through. but the wind is really picking up behind that. marin county seeing gusts to 30, 35. we'll talk about the wind forecast and the cooler temperatures coming up. ♪

was a 3 x 1 foot chunk of metal that fell off a truck and the chp tossed it over the fence to get it out of the road. it was very, very heavy. it's easy to see how it would puncture all of the tires of the cars. more than a dozen cars ran over it here in the southbound lanes at i-80 at the high street offramp and had to pull over around quarter to 6:00 this morning. the chp says this is a prime example why trucks need to secure their loads. they want to remind drivers to call 911 when they see debris in the road wreau that could be a po -- roadway that could be a potential hazard. a simple phone call like that could have spared a lot of headache and hassle. >> driving along, drinking coffee. boom. big obstruction in the road. split second to think about what you are gonna do. >> reporter: the chm -- the chp marked litter enforcement day where they inspected 80 garbage

traffic there. northbound 2880 is slow getting up -- 280 is slow getting up to highway 17. a lot of people are on the road as we get used to this fall schedule. most schools are back in and a lot of people are out of vacation time. let's go back to steve. thank you, sal. saturday, we had really good rain but not much cold air. the system is coming by right now is not gone give us much except for high clouds and no rain here. very cold air is on the way. it's upstream it will be stilling in now. just so you know, you will start to feel it today and tomorrow. cooler, breezy to windy for some today. some of the higher elevations. mount tam or mt. diablo. a little bit of high clouds is coming by. mostly sunny, cooler, breezy. sunny. i think breezy, windy for everybody. that's the system. that's it. it's not going to do much here. but it's digging in north and east of us. it will draw down a lot of cold

air. the wind forecast for the bay definitely picks up. i expect a small craft advisory for noon. 25, 30, maybe gusts to 40 would not surprise me at all. the system has a little bit going for it. moisture very little. it will produce some scattered showers up in the sierra nevada. more likely late tomorrow as the colder air works in. a south wind in advance of that. tahoe is 58. ukiah, 59. the breeze is picking up. chloe in clearlake says breeze has turned to wind. 50s and 60s on the lows. we were held up. we have mostly clear skies. a little bit of a south wind. everybody is starting to show a shuttle breeze. i expect that to turn northwest later on. sfo now, 18. i think it could be very windy by redwood shores. patrick says 15 miles an hour. over at sfo, brisbane, looks windy to me. are not much to the system. it's the colder air coming in upstream. that will start to filter in

slightly today. by tomorrow, it will definitely feel like a cold system. this is not a cool front. s. this is a cold front. not much happening in the sierra yet but the wind will crank up there. monday, it was sunny and warm. today will be sunny but cooler and breezy and much cooler on wednesday. temperatures are gonna take a plunge. if you are up in tahoe, i would watch the clouds increase. partly sunny. could be an isolated scattered shower or two. tomorrow will be the better opportunity from the colder air beginning to move in. clouds here. then it will be sunny to mostly sunny. but cooler, breezy, windy. it's the main forecast message here. originally, i penciled in 80 for clearlake. i dropped it to 70. this time of year it doesn't take much. upper 70s or very low 80s will be the theme. temperatures topped out on monday. i don't think we'll see those for a few days. it will continue to cool down. cooler and colder on wednesday. that will be the first blast of cold air for the young season.

whatnot. we were able to get everybody out of the freeway and get them on their way. the last car left about 15 minutes ago. >> reporter: could this have been prevented? >> definitely. a lot of times the debris you see on the roadway is a result of unsecured loads. people putting things in the back of loads and not tied down securely. when that does falls on the freeway, it affects other people. on the 17th of september, we concluded our maximum enforcement day. the chp found eight vehicles with violations with vehicles not covering their loads and 19 additional vehicles were cilted for having a hole where debris could fall through. if you are gonna transport things on the freeway, you have to tie down your loads, make sure there is a tarp. if you have metal debris, make
