through locks and others tore through doors. >> a lot of outdoors and storage facilities and trailers and when you are looking for narcotics they can be hid anywhere. >> we are told this is part of an ongoing investigation related to a drug bust in cordelia back in march, there police arrested people and found stole in guns, a cache of marijuana cocaine and meth, the deputies were assisted by them, one officer received minor injuries as he was trying to bust on any shed but we are told he will be fine, they will release more details later and noel walker will have much more on this story on our news at 5:00. tara moriarty, ktvu channel 2 news. >> thank you. also in the east bay the bart station was closed after a train hit and killed a person.

it happened just after 9:00 a.m. there. police are trying to determine how that person got on the tracks, right now all trains are not stopping there, we just checked with bart and the incident is causing 15 to 30 minute delays on the pittsburgh bay point line. developing news on the fire burning in san diego county, they are looking into arson as a possible cause of the 9 fires that started within 48 hours, the first started on tuesday, eight others all began within hours yesterday, they were fueled by intense heat and gusty winds, those fires have burned more than 9000 acres along with dozens of homes and businesses, damage already estimated at 22 million dollars, coming up in just about 10 minutes we will have a live report from the fire lines. a bay area strike team is on its way to help fight those fires in southern california, i want to show you video from livermore this morning as firefighters from all over alameda county met before rolling south, their team includes firefighters from fremont, oakland, hayward and

the livermore pleasanton fire departments. >> we are geared up. we are trained and ready to go. our resources are ready and we are anticipating a very busy season, yes, buttist started early and that is why we are heading down south right now. >> in addition to the strike team that left this morning 7 cal fire engines from northern california have already gone to san diego. a mysterious sign in san francisco is getting a lot of attention from drivers. take a look. it is on van nuys near vallejo and says in part the city is closed because it is too hot. it is still unclear who is responsible for this message but there is evidence that the heat wave is beginning to cool off, ktvu meteorologist mark tamayo tracking those conditions for us right now, hey there mark? >> hi, mike, it is a gradual process, there is fog, over the coast the past few hours but not enough to cool things down, for this hour already lower 90s toward antioch and livermore and walnut creek as well, 1 sensor in san francisco showing 77 but right near the immediate

coastline the presence of that rare and onshore breeze beginning to cool things off, in fact here is a look, a very shallow return there and also seen a few patches develop right near the golden gate bridge, not much coverage on that satellite but i will show you live coverage looking out toward the golden gate bridge and one patch trying to develop near the marine headlines but still away from this talking about warm to very hot temperatures, the heat advisory has expired, and coming up i will tell you about the weekend and the temperature could drop 11 degrees. coming up. >> thanks, mark, we have this report in san francisco where the truck slammed into the funeral home and we have this report from sal castaneda, where that truck was just moved, sal? >> that's right, mike, you can

see the building damage, and the debris, but amazingly the damage was mostly superficial here and almost everyone involved says they are lucky things didn't get much worse. this video taken by a neighbor shows the truck on fire shortly after the crash. the big rig was traveling west on market street at 12:30 in the morning when it lost control. as the truck burned you can see the funeral parlor starting to catch fire, firefighters say two people, the driver and the passenger were able to get out just in time. >> they were very fortunate, i expected to find human remains in this vehicle but luckily they were able to escape. >> the truck was on its way to make deliveries before the crash, inside the building a caretaker who says she didn't realize how serious the crash was. >> i was hearing the crash breaking i thought i better

look out and see if anybody needs help so on the front side i was looking down and didn't see anything but then all of a sudden the room lit up orange and i looked through this window here and everything was completely on fire. >> jerry lynn sullivan one of the owners of the building says all in all this could have been much worse for the people involved and her business. >> you know it is just wonderful that you know that it is not gone and that it is not anymore than it is, we are very thankful and we are thankful that nobody was hurt because from the look of that can you would think those drivers were killed. >> reporter: as you look at the debris and the burning on the side of the wall it looks like just now i just saw a car drive by here on market street and i have seen people walking by. it looks like they have just opened westbound market heading toward castro, eastbound market you can see is open but it

looks like they are just moment as sway or they have just opened market street here. live in san francisco sal castaneda ktvu channel 2 news. >> all right, sal, thanks for that update. a woman charged with that crime is also accused of a hate crime, she was accused of strike inch a girl in the head with a crowbar inside the wal- mart there. police say the child's father started trying to stop that attack but she started hitting him as well before security guards jumped in and grabbed her and we are now learning she targeted asians because she did not think they would fight back. she is a transient. >> i would be very sad if it happened to me and my daughter,

you know i empathize with the father but i think we need to do something about homelessness. >> she is due in court and charged with those crimes, both include hate crime allegations. the people tired of bouncing down potholes, oakland public works is going on a 7 week pot hole blitz, it was kicked off this morning there, crews will spend a week in this part of east oakland patching up streets then move on to other areas of the city, now the city says the pot hole blitz is part of an effort to keep oakland vehicles, pedestrians and others safe, the city says it hopes to repair 2500 potholes. pg&e is having a drill today to help people keep safe, they have set up a sort of base camp there, they are practicing a 911 response to simulated gas and electric hazards following an earthquake, during the trial

they will be patrolling neighborhoods looking for damage. >> we put tags out in the field so we simulate hey if this facility was down what would you do. >> pg&e tells us it wants to be fully prepared especially since geologists say there is a 62.6% chance that an earthquake will hit in the next few years. and we have this report on the crash there, why they say the driver crashed on purpose. plus firefighters rush to san diego to help fight the fire there, we will have a live report from the fire line as you look at these live pictures right now from san diego county.

a robbery at an antioch cvs pharmacy did not quite end the way the crooks had hoped, police say the would be robbers crashed their vehicle through the front window of the cvs just before 6:00 a.m. this morning, it appears they may have tried to take the atm, it was knocked down but not taken from the store, police spotted the car nearby and it led them on a chase, three suspects were arrested, 1 injured and his condition is

not great known. an accident happened there, the motorcyclist was turning when he was struck by the motorcyclist, he died at the hospital, police say it is possible he is speeding, but the investigation is continuing. we have this report from there, steve was there for weeks and have this report from ground zero. >> reporter: more than 12 years after 9/11, the memorial museum opened its doors, the aim celebrating how its victims lived, not how they died. >> and in the great wall and bedrock that embraces us today, nothing can ever break us. >> past and current presidents and mayors have gathered at the spot where it happened.

>> i think it is more difficult now than back in the time closer to the event. >> visitors will not only see artifacts from the twin towers but also personal items gathered from people who responded back then on 9/11. >> it is our hope when people come here and see his red bandana they will remember how people helped each other that day. >> the museum is not without controversy, some objected to remains being housed there and some say it paints an inaccurate picture of islam. >> the overwhelming majority of 1.6 billion followers of islam are rightous believers and should not be conslated with terrorism. >> for now the museum is only open to the victim's families but next week it will be open

to the public, the museum is delayed and ran over cost and delayed, and part of the reason is that is because of the complicated details and part of that is because they agonized over it and they were sensitive to the victim's families and wanted to get the story telling done just right. at the world trade center, i am steve catsenbaum. >> now to the wild fires burning out of control in san diego county. i want to show you pictures of san diego county of the fires burning in one of the neighborhoods there, again this started yesterday and plenty of firefighters are attacking those flames, so far 10,000 acres have burned in and around san diego county, you can see that under one of the driveways obviously under protection mode, the bay area has just sent a couple of strike teams doubt south to san diego county, they should arrive by

evening to help in this firefighting effort, definitely a fluid situation you can say in san diego county as dozens of homes have already burned and again nearly 10,000 acres currently burning in san diego county, there is a reporter there on scene, we thought we could be able to get a report from that reporter but right now we are being told we are able to listen in on her so let's listen in at this point. >> we have got 9 major fires burning in the county but you know what? they are being vigilant, safety first, we make sure our firefighters are rested and ready but safety first. >> all right, thank you for talking to us, all right, you heard it from mike molar, they are actually attacking this fire with everything they have got right now but you can see up on the hill that fire is

growing there and going separate for that structure. >> all right, looks like that reporter is just wrapping up her live shot there again, again 9 fires burning in san diego county, over 10,000 acres and bay area fire crews heading down south. that will be closed while bay area temperatures are expected to be cooler today, it was 96 degrees there yesterday with humidity and officials say that has created ideal conditions for wildfires so they are closing the park as a precaution. fire officials are also keeping a close eye on the homeless encampment. they have been called out there several times to the encampment known as the jungle, they were able to keep that fire from spreading to homes but they may the danger is high due to those conditions. now, if you are headed out you should know there is a

warning tonight, sneaker waves are possible there, san francisco firefighters go through special training to rescue a rising number of swimmers in distress, we had an exclusive look at part of this beak's training session out at china beach, last year they responded to 137 water rescue incidents compared to only 36 back in 2001. >> it has definitely gone up, there is more people doing watersports and even kite boarding there which they were not doing 4 or 5 years ago. >> they say the most common rescue is a swimmer in distress especially with dangerous rip currents so crews learn how to get victims and then get those victims to safety in all kinds of situations. >> yeah, the beaches in the bay area really warming up as well but today we do have changes with that fog, kind of strange over the past few days resurfacing near the coast not too widespread yet but this is the first of a few changes that will cool us off here in the

bay area, here is our camera looking out toward mt. diablo, a few high clouds as well but temperatures already soaring up near 90, already a hot day except near the immediately coastline, on radar you can see a few high clouds moving toward the coast but fog showing up just enough to change out there, a change in the wind direction to cool things off, a cooling trend really kicks in for tomorrow. current numbers 84 in santa rosa, san francisco 77, and oakland 79, concord already 88, livermore is right around 90 and san jose currently 86 degrees, a few high clouds moving into the south bay, here is the temperature time line throughout the day easily right around 89, could be closer to 92 degrees by about 30 this afternoon, even at 9:00 tonight back down to the lower 70s so still mild for the south bay as we head into the evening hours. shallow marine layer right now. it is trying to develop but what will happen over the next 24 hours it is going to expand

in-depth and we will have a stronger onshore breeze and that will eventually cool off the entire bay area, really tomorrow and into the weekend. in fact some major cooling by the weekend. talking a lot about this guy, an area of high pressure offshore, strong high pressure for this time of year, the cooling trend begins today but we are still going to have some pretty hot numbers you will see that coming up in a little bit. but here we go with that temperature trend into the weekend, for friday, saturday, sunday, a cooler weekend, sunday easily the coolest day of the week end, forecast highs for this weekend still get ready for 90s the heat advisory expired last night at 9:00. those are your predicted highs for those areas, and morgan hill, gilroy, even santa cruz lower 90s san francisco yesterday was 88, today we will go with 79 degrees, here is your five-day-forecast, you will definitely notice that cooling trend by the weekend,

by tomorrow mike just 60s and lower 70s so a big change in the weather story by the weekend but today kind of nice to see that refreshing fog bank offshore and i think it will expand in coverage tomorrow to bring relief to the entire bay area. >> yeah i like how you emphasize that. >> yeah. >> it is good to see. >> yeah. >> thank you mark. three lucky roommates found more than just loose change in their newly purchased house, just how much money they discovered in that couch and what they did with it.

cushions now but before they thought about spending all that money they found an envelope with a name on it and tracked that person down and it turns out the money belonged to an elderly woman who had stashed her life savings into the cushions without telling the family and they donated that couch to the salvation army. >> and our neighbors were screaming like they won the lottery. >> and she said oh, my god. >> i said what, she said i put all my money in that couch. >> they returned the money to the elderly woman and she gave them a 1 thousand dollar reward. and we had this report and with found paint and batteries and other things in places they are not supposed to be, even if they promise that we will investigate that and what is being done to protect you and thank you for making ktvu your
