stop before she simply stepped off the platform in front of the train. a lot of people around here who saw it including b.a.r.t. employees shaken by what they saw. this stalled the commute for hours. b.a.r.t. for a time was talking sets up -- setting up a bus train. they didn't need to do that. to reiterate, the b.a.r.t. says is back up and running. business as usual. but certainly not for that woman's family or the people on the train who saw this horrible thing happen. noelle walker, ktvu channel 2 news. >> thank you for the update. an investigation is underway into a bus accident in san francisco that killed a woman out for a morning jog. she was hit by a golden gate transit bus around 6:15 on van ness avenue. the bus was turning left from lombard street. police say the jogger, a woman in her 50s was taken to sf

years. it's an idea not necessarily sitting well with students. if it proposal were to go through, tuition for in-state students could go to up 12,804 flex-- next year. administrators say it's necessary to cover rising costs of retirement benefits and recent salary increments. recently uc students have experienced sharp increases in tuition prior to the tuition freeze that's been in place. today the system's chief financial officer says this plan will provide students more stability. >> having this kind of plan, i think is, you know, a prudent fiscal plan but it does really does serve our students and their families. part of this plan is to add 5,000 more california students over the term of it. you know, that takes money because we're not only just increasing, you know, the size.

we're also adding. >> reporter: uc tuition has been frozen for the past three years with staffing cuts put in place and some critical maintenance put off. uc leaders say under this plan, tuition could go up as much as 5% a year or it could not go up at all depending pong the level of state funding the university gets during that time period. some students we talked to say they just want to know what the extra money is going to and they want to know it will be well spent. >> school is definitely expensive as it is. i think it's a problem because there's not a lot of tran barncy with students and where the -- transparency with students and where the money is going. >> reporter: and if the proposal goes through, it do rise to $15,000 a -- it could rise to $15,000 a year. they will need to give the plan the green light, and they will discuss the five-year plan at their meeting coming up in san francisco. we're live in berkeley, alex

would have more options in terms of better voting systems, better technology and a more advanced system. >> even if the county had an upgraded system in place, it would not have spread sped up the place of the absentee ballots. it could only have affected the ballots at each precinct. a security guard now recovering after being shot during a gun battle outside a bay area starbucks. we're now hearing from that guard and what he says led up to the shooting. hazy conditions around the bay area today with a warmup in store. mark tamayo will be here to tell you if he's seeing any rain in the forecast. a warning to apple users, and a threat. what the malware is targeting and how many people may be affected.
