picking up in the east bay and down towards antioch and san jose. it held together and gave us measurable amounts. this is the real rain. north bay looks like it's about done. there's a little bit in napa county and american canyon heading out toward fairfield, crockett, la fayette, moraga, orinda, stretching back to berkeley, peadmont, oakland. even down to alameda, that seems to be the heaviest concentration. had pretty good reports in concord, clayton and then parts of san ramon, danville and blackhawk. they are not done yet also towards palo alto, los altos, santa clara and some of that now stretching towards san jose in the santa clara valley. not there yet with you but it's on its way. the front will zip through pretty quick. i think by 8:30, 9:00 most will be gone. then this rotates in. looks gad for more rain. the front is flying through. if you are done with the rain,

in the number five lane. possibly about 4 inches. that truck driver then crashed into the center divide. luckily, it didn't hit any cars as it was traveling on southbound 880. it crashed in the center divide. it stopped traffic there from here on out. but there was major damage to the front end of that truck and traffic was stopped coming into san francisco. again on southbound 880. the other accident that we should tell you about is on northbound 880. that is affecting traffic as well. that started before 6:00 this morning. i want to take it back out here live, you see the traffic in both direction, not moving very good through here. but there was another accident involving a big rig truck and a pickup truck. apparently, there was an accident near the market street offramp. this caused major backups through 880. 880 is just a mess this morning. in terms of this accident here, chp looks like it's clearing the scene here. probably within the hour when

this scene, southbound 880 should be cleared. if you are heading through oakland, some some patience with you. it will be a mess. brian flores, ktvu channel 2 news. >> we'll check in for an update shortly. thank you. back to our breaking news now out of san francisco. about 90 minutes ago, our camera caught officers chasing a white suv across the golden gate bridge. you can see the flashing lights there now, it appears a vehicle matching that description a white suv crashed in san francisco's finance am district which led to a police shooting. alex savidge is at the scene of this quickly developing story with an update. alex, what have you learned? >> reporter: tori, good morning. this high-speed police pursuit ended with an officer-involved shooting. this is the scene you see behind us. the streets are blocked off near california and battery. san francisco police piece this all together. you can see here as we come over to the left-hand side and

it ended at california and battery streets in san francisco with a crash and police shooting. ktvu's alex savidge is at the scene with details. alex? >> reporter: sal, good morning to you. streets blocked off here in the financial district this morning as san francisco police investigate this shooting. we understand several officers opened fire this morning. this is the result. you can see this is the end of a chase and a crash. it ended right here at california and battery and a lieutenant here at the scene did tell us that one person has died here at the scene. it will be a lengthy investigation. again, several officers fired their weapons this morning. this all began early this morning with a chase. i want to show you some video that we got of the case. it first began in richmond, where there was a carjacking. this white cadillac escalade was carjacked initially in the city. that began a pursuit. the chp took over the pursuit. it was a high-speed pursuit that went across the bridge, it

went into marin county and then eventually across the golden gate bridge into san francisco. chp officers handed that chase off to san francisco police and san francisco police then chased this suv that had been reported stolen. they chased it through city streets before eventually the person behind the wheel of that suv crashed here in the financial district at the intersection of california and battery. and again, that's when several officers opened fire on that person and we do understand the person who was the focus of this pursuit is dead here at the scene. let me bring you back out here to a live picture because this investigation has closed down a number of streets surrounding california and battery. obviously, a busy time of morning here on any given morning but this morning, you can see i.d. gridlock on the streets. cars are just moving at a snail's pace. an area you want to avoid as you make your way into san

francisco. sal, maybe you can offer folks alternate routes here to get around what really is a mess in the city. >> that's right, alex. we want to put it on the map and show you the police activity which is the financial district. now, the cable cars are not running in that area. they have shuttle bus service, according to the mta. and as alex showed you, the streets are a mess. again, california at battery. but several blocks in either direction are closed for the police investigation. so avoid the area. you may not be let into your building if it's anywhere near california and battery. you might not be led across the yellow tape there. plan april head. you might want to call. if you work down there and if they are getting people in the building. let's go to some pictures here of 880 southbound at 980 where this crash involving a big rig, the truck itself has been cleared away. but there was diesel spilled on the road and two lanes are still blocked southbound 880 at 98. the traffic is going to be busy

northbound because there was an accident there and people are slowing down to take a look at what's going on. i want to show you 880. it's a mess coming from the coliseum trying to get to downtown oakland because of all of this going on. watch for a lot of slow traffic. when you get to the bay bridge toll plaza, you will see traffic is backed up for about a 25 to 30-minute delay. i'm surprised it's not worse. this is about normal for getting into san francisco. as steve mentioned, it looks like the rain has stopped in oakland. 7:37. back to the desk. >> thank you, sal. police and firefighters in mountain view found two bodies inside an apartment building while investigating a noxious odor. that smell led to evacuations last night. ktvu's janine de la vega joins us from mountain view to tell us when the people will be allowed back into their homes. good morning, janine. >> reporter: good morning, tori. california street is back open to traffic. it had been closed since yesterday evening. police are posted outside these two apartment complexes. they are getting people know

ferry workers have authorized a one-day strike for tomorrow. it's not official but about 7,000 people take the ferry between larkspur, sausalito and san francisco every weekday. that means those people may be forced into their cars instead. that could make for a very crowded highway on the golden gate bridge affecting not just commuters but people heading into the city for entertainment friday evening. golden gate bridge district workers will hold a news conference this morning at 11:00 to announce the details and likelihood of a walkout tomorrow. now, the good news is, we understand that golden gate bus service is not supposed to be affected if there is a strike tomorrow. many people who normally take the ferry may try to take the bus. we'll have more on the news conference happening later today. we'll have more on that during the noon news. pam cook, ktvu channel 2 news. b.a.r.t.'s board of directors is scheduled to take up two critical labor issues at its meeting tonight. the board is set to ratify the

minute delay. northbound 680, the right lane is closed. this is a nice commute usually. some tweets are saying it's taking them an hour. southbound 680 is slow in the area. 880 is a parking lot heading into fremont as well. now the weather, hello steve. >> sal, what did i tell you yesterday? >> you were right. it's gonna rain. >> i said you and i are gonna be busy. that's when i broke out the rain tie. rain has gone through some. what's interesting about this, there was more rain in san francisco, oakland, peninsula and the east bay than santa rosa. that doesn't happen all of the time. heaviest rain in the morning hours. rain .10 to .75. take a look at this on satellite in a second. the first is the official reporting station mint hill and

unstable air coming in tonight and tomorrow. it will clear out on saturday. next week looking warmer and dry. >> all right. thank you, steve. well, despite the rain that we're getting this morning. we're still in a drought. coming up in 20 minutes, we look at the jobs of so-called water cops and the most common calls they respond to.

welcome back. a san francisco woman accused of driving her car on city streets with a parking control officer on her hood says she did it because she was scared. 33-year-old bo mounsombath pleaded not guilty yesterday to felony charges of assault, battery and hit and run. a witness took this photo of the incident last thursday. police say the parking control officer was ticketing her on heys street when she pulled away. the officer jumped on the hood of her car to avoid being run over. >> i just heard yenle yelling -- general yelling.

when i got closer, i heard her saying you are scaring me. and i remember thinking, you are gonna kill this guy. >> she said the parking control officer sexually harassing her, successing he might not give her a ticket if she gave him her phone number. she said she was scared because she thought maybe he was not a real officer. the city says that's not consistent with the officer's character. numerous sources are reporting that eric holder is set to resign after tumultuous tenure in that position. coming up, the details about what they say led up to this huge decision. and it's really bad traffic

almost everywhere you look because of the earlier rain. wet roads and slow traffic here in san jose. also in the east bay. rain has ended for most of the north bay, san francisco/oakland. it's coming down good for the east bay and santa cruz mountains. we'll see if there's any more for tonight and tomorrow.

breaking news. a person has died after a chase, crash and officer- involved shooting that started in richmond and ended in san francisco's busy -- finance am district. alex savidge has the details. >> reporter: sal good morning. one person dead as a result of this high speed pursuit. a crash and a police shooting. we do have police chief greg suhr. he's just come to the scene to give us an update on the situation. can you tell us what happened? >> at approximately 4:55 this morning, there was a -- there was a carjacking in richmond, california. a woman was leaving for work and the suspect approached her with a firearm and carjacked her white escalade, thankfully, when the woman's husband came out to go to her assistance, she is fine. she was not taken. the suspect fled the scene, richmond, california, police department tried to locate the

suspect. there was a pursuit. he went onto the freeway. california highway patrol took over the case. westbound 580 towards 101. suspect then went southbound, 101, into san francisco, where san francisco police took over the chase. it was a protracted chase in the city. we lost the suspect at bush and montgomery. within minutes, there was multiple vehicle police, rollover right behind me here at california and battery. the suspect vehicle with the suspect inside was the vehicle that rolled over. when good samaritans in the neighborhood went to the aid of the suspect, he fired upon the good samaritans. none of the good samaritans was hit by gunfire. however, one was hit by some sort of a fragment in his chest. he's upset and traumatized. but it's not a life-threatening injury. the suspect appeared to be stuck in the car. officers came on scene.

ambulance was on scene. they called for less lethal to try to resolve this thing peacefully. the suspect would not drop the gun. at some point in time, turned the gun toward the officer, several officers fired striking the suspect and he was pronounced dead here at the scene. >> the person who was shot, what is their condition? >> we don't know that the good samaritan was shot or hit by a bullet. some sort of a fragment hit him in the chest. the injury appears to be superfishal. he will be okay. >> by the time you crashed here, what time was that? >> the whole thing took place over an hour. the original crime was at about 4:55. the injury rollover was at about 5 to 6:00 and it was over within seconds. >> was he trapped inside the suv? it appears that that's the case. it appears that he was unable to get out of the vehicle and that's why everything took place with him kind of at the windshield. >> was it the case that you lost him once he got in san

francisco or that it was decided that you would call off the -- >> no, no. my understanding is the san francisco police department actually lost the vehicle at bush and montgomery just minutes before the violent collision behind me. >> and the potential for innocent people to have been hurt or killed? >> very fortunately, it happened in the early-morning hours before everybody got here. you can tell with the amount of people here, if this thing happens an hour later, it could have been way worse. >> reporter: thank you for your time. this began as a carjacking in richmond. it ended with a crash and the person inside the suv was being pursued. opened fire on people who came to help him after the accident and this person apparently according to the chief wouldn't stop his gun and officers say they were forced to open fire on him. he was shot and killed. we'll work to get more information from the chief.

we'll have further updates on "mornings on 2." we're live in san francisco, alex savidge, ktvu channel 2 news. >> thank you very much. we're gonna continue with some of the slow traffic around the bay area. i want to mention that that area where alex is standing. the middle of the financial district is clogged. a lot of streets are closed. the cable car line that runs through there is not running. they sh shuttle buses because -- they have shuttle buses because of this ongoing police activity. alex is staying put. we'll have more details as they come out. let's take a look at 880 northbound as you drive past the coliseum. traffic is very slow because of a couple of earlier crashes. when it was raining hard, there was flooding in downtown oakland. shortly after that, a couple of big rig accidents happened. the commute has not recovered. when you go to the bay bridge toll plaza, it's slow. it's about a a-minute drive time from the end of the line to the san francisco side of the bridge. we've will a lot of people talk about this, northbound 680, it's a huge mess coming out of

san jose, south bay up into pleasanton because of a truck that was jackknifed. we also have a lot of slow traffic in san jose. 101 is some id from blossom hill road to mountain view. 280 and 785 are superslow. it's one of those mornings you need to give yourself extra time. the weather may be easing up now. but the number of fender- benders and spinouts are still out there. a big rig crash in oakland. brian, is it getting any better out there? >> reporter: well, the good news, it's getting a little better. still a lot of residual traffic, especially through here through oakland along 880. crews clearing up the tanker accident that created major problems on the southbound side. there was a good amount of diesel fuel that spilled. about an hour ago, all lanes on the northbound side of 880 reopened after another accident. as we go to video, this was the accident that caused major

headaches through oakland. i just spoke to the driver of the tanker truck a few moments ago. he said he was traveling on the southbound side of 880 in the slow lane when he noticed a high amount of standing water in his lane. there was a lot of flooding through oakland. this was around 4:30 this morning. he estimates the water was up to his kneecaps but he says there was another truck in front of him. that truck splashed water on his front window as he went through the standing water. the tanker truck driver couldn't see anything in front of him. he basically crashed into the center divide. luckily avoiding other cars. now, there was major front-end damage. wax did not leak. certainly major problems in both directions. you are taking a look at the southbound side. tack a look at the northbound side as well. there was a major problem earlier but all of those lanes have since cleared. as you mentioned, sal, traffic really busy as you pass through the coliseum from san leandro

but certainly big mess this morning. first major rain storm of the season. chp has their hands full as well. we'll live in oakland, brian flores, ktvu channel 2 news. >> thank you. we're also following developing news of major power outages from this morning's wet weather. 3600 pg&e customers in vallejo have lost power. pg&e is also working to restore power to more than 5800 customers in richmond and more than 6800 customers in san jose. pg&e is also on the scene of a blown transformer in san jose's willow glen neighborhood on drake street and fuller avenue. people living in a nearby apartment building have been asked to shelter in place while repairs are made. we have breaking news for you. a white house official reporting u.s. attorney general eric holder will announce his resignation later today. eric holder is the nation's first african-american attorney general. his decision to resign comes

after a very tumultuous times as the nation's top law enforcement officer for the obama administration. it was marked by civil rights advances, national security threats, reforms to the criminal justice system and five years of really tough fights with republicans in congress. once again, a white house official is reporting u.s. attorney general eric holder will announce his resignation later today. he plans to stay at the justice department until his successor is in place. back here at home, police in vallejo searching for suspects after a driver was shot and killed at an intersection last night. it happened just before 9:30 near admiral callahan lane and auto mall parkway. police say a man was sitting in his truck when a car pulled up and someone started shooting. the man was rushed to the hospital but he did not survive. police say the suspects may be in a gold sedan. if you have any information about this case, call vallejo police.

happening today, a new report on security at the san jose airport will go to the city council. the focus is on two high- profile security breaches at the airport this year. in april, a teenaged boy jumped over an airport fence, hid inside the wheel well of a plane and stowed away to hawaii. then in august, a woman nicknamed the serial stowaway got past security checkpoints and made it onto a southwest jet without a ticket and flew to los angeles. two bodies found inside of a south bay apartment building that have been evacuated. coming up at 8:30, we'll tell you about a note left behind that may give some critical clues in this grim discovery. but first, a daring theft in san francisco. the pieces of public art taken near the waterfront. getting word of a new injury crash just popped up in oakland. we're also looking at some of these other commutes that are very slow like 680 in the east bay. this has been slow all morning. we'll tell you what's happening

8:13. despite the rain so-called water cops are on patrol in santa clara county to make sure you are not wasting precious water. ktvu followed one of the five water inspectors hired this month to look into complaints of water wasters. one of the calls was about a broken sprinklerhead which is

the district's most common complaint. >> it's always they are gonna get it fixed or they are on it and just found about it. that's usually their answer. and the inspectors cannot actually hand out tickets. they are only there to educate the public but they do document each case and turn over repeat violaters to water companies who can enforce fines. water wasters can be reported at the santa clara valley water district's website. 8:14. happening today, caltrans will hold a news conference this morning. it's about the progress in tearing down the old bay bridge. crews started tearing down the 78-year-old bridge a year ago. they've run into a wide range of problems as they remove hundreds of thousands of tons of steel and concrete. caltrans says that massive demolition project is still on track to be finished by 2018. maybe even sooner. san francisco police are investigating stolen public art

from the embarcadero. dozens of bronze works of art were stolen. art that tells the story of the water front. the stolen items were taken from plaques, benches and even the sidewalk. >> how did they even pry them up from the ground? i had no idea you could possibly do that. >> police say thieves likely hoped to recycle the metal for crash. the port is trying to determine how many pieces were taken. they are also looking into better ways to protect public art in the future. the golden state warriors are defending the design of their proposed arena in san francisco. critics and even some fans compared the design to a toilet seat. it's oblong-shaped. it's an 18,000-seat arena due to open for the 2018/2019 season. but the warriors say this preliminary design is only went to give you an idea about the height, the bulk and the context of the arearena --

arena. and they say the design will change. 8:15. just as steve predicted, steve and sal are extremely busy today. where do you start, sal? >> we're starting in the east bay, tori and dave. northbound 680 at vargas. still have a crash taking away lanes and the sun groel grade traffic is -- sunol grade traffic is very slow. a lot of people who drive up to pleasanton who normally don't face any slow traffic, is the noncommunity direction have been telling me they've been surprised a 20-minute drive taking an hour. obviously people are in a bad mood. as we move over to the south bay, we'll talk about the bay bridge in a moment. everywhere is slow on the commute direction. 85, 101 and 280 all very slow and even 17 coming across the mountains has been slow. the peninsula, 101 is slow in both directions in san mateo and so is highway 92. now again, we're talking about the bay bridge toll plaza, this

it's a marathon but you have to run it like a sprint. that's only possible if everybody chips in. if every nation and every organization takes this seriously. everybody here has to do more. international organizations have to move faster and cut through red tape and mobilize partners on the ground as only they can. more nations need to contribute critical assets an capabilities, whether it's air transport or medical evacuation or healthcare workers or equipment or treatment. more foundations can tap into the networks of support that they have to raise funds and awareness. more business, especially those who already have a presence in the region can quickly provide their own expertise and resources from access to critical supply chains to telecommunications and more citizens all nations can educate themselves on this crisis contribute to relief efforts and call on their

leaders to act. so everybody can do something. that's why we're here today. even as we meet the urgent threat of ebola it's clear that our nations have to do more to prevent, detect and respond to future biological threats. >> you've been listening to president obama speaking at the u.n. on the ebola epidemic. saying we're not doing enough, we're putting in enough resources despite good intentions. the response to this crisis has to be fast. it's only possible if every nation pitches in. so far five west african nations are reporting ebola cases. the virus has killed 3,000 people as of this past weekend. just this week, the cdc centers for disease control and prevention estimated in sierra
