it was in a lower floor unit in an apartment that quickly spread to an upper unit. we just got this cell phone video in of that fire. fire officials say one person who lives in the apartment building had to be treated for smoke inhalation. a police officer headed to work at the nearby martinez police department, heard about the fire. he rushed over there. that officer inhaled smoke trying to get people out of the burning building. now, fire crews say both injuries are minor so far. several other residents were forced out of the their homes. >> we to have a lot of units evacuated. you know, we have the two units involved but then any unit on any side of that is also evacuated. we evacuated another building that's right adjacent to where the fire unit was just out of an abundance of caution. >> fire crews got everything under control, about a half- hour ago. they expect to be out there on the scene for quite some time. still, the cause of the fire is under investigation.

police in france arrested

and islamic extremist in paris saying he planned to attack church. the 24-year-old algerian man is accused of killing a woman shortly before he was arrested on sunday. police say the arrest came after the man shot himself by accident and then called for an ambulance. the police who responded said they found a blood trail leading to his car and the car was filled with loaded guns and notes about potential targets. under heavy public pressure, the santa clara city council says it needs more time to study a controversial parking proposal idea from the 49ers. last night about 200 soccer moms, dads and young players held up these suns before last night's meeting opposing this idea. then they packed the city council meeting and voiced their objections to the 49ers' idea to use three soccer fields next to levi stadium for extra parking. the team is proposing to lease the fieldses for $15 million.

plus share a part of the parking fees with the money going to find soccer fields elsewhere. >> in the ideal world, the property the soccer park would be moved to a location that's comparable to where we have, the 49ers would pay for it as they had promised and the city would dispose of our property of fair market value. >> i don't take it personal. i think we have to get to the point where we have the best solution for the community, everybody. >> well, the city council canceled a closed session on the issue. now they will send it to a committee for even more discussion. 7:17 let's get you moving out the door see what sal sees in the commute. everybody behaving for you? >> sort of. we do have slow traffic, to be sure, dave. >> okay. >> we don't have a will the of major things in the bay area. we had the horrible crash in sacramento that we continue to update. here in the bay, we'll start off with a look at the commute

at the toll plaza. highway 24, then the toll plaza. westbound 24 is going to be a little bit slow as you can see in la fayette, getting to the oakland side. i did mention the toll plaza because a lot of people travel from highway 24 here and it's backed up for a 15, 20-minute delay. not as bad as it was yesterday for some reason. we won't ask any questions. let's take a look at northbound 17, 85 and 280. slowing there on 101, 280, 85 all of the freeways. nothing major yet. it might get heavier in the future. but right now, it's still a do- able commute. what's kind of a bright spot, if you drive this way every day. 101 and mountain view and sunnyvale is not that bad. let's just kind of keep it quiet and hope it stays that way. 7:18. let's go to steve. >> no. really? >> we were hoping it stays that way. well, mostly cloudy skies. there are a few more breaks in the low clouds. but the higher clouds will be on the increase later on. the key -- couple of things

going on. >> ocean temps finally cooled down. that helps the fog. no heat in the valley. there was over the weekend. not that much. you are not seeing 890 in -- seeing 90 in sacramento. they were really cool yesterday. a cool air mass allowed the coastal temps to cool off. water temps have been warm. that's not the case now. these are some of the observed temps. 50 to 51, santa cruz, half moon bay, pacifica, san francisco, bodega bay, you can also throw daly city in there as well. if you live over there, you are like it's cold. it is. yesterday, very chilly. these are the average highs. these will be the highs. crows to slightly -- close to slightly below. it might feel like a little chill in the air mass. low clouds will slowly here from north to south. mostly cloudy here to start. the key is the moisture over the sierra which has been -- going crazy.

some of this looks like it's poised to move closer to the north bay and east bay. 50s on the temps. upper 40s, right at 50 for santa rosa. 51 san francisco. napa is 52. here is your cooler water temps. 50 at san francisco buoy. that helps in the overnight lows. helps on the fog formation along with a couple of systems. look at the low in southern california. it's going to wrap back in some cloud cover off the sierra coming in from the -- well, the spine of the sierra. some of that, i think will work it way later today -- its way later today. wednesday afternoon, wednesday evening, towards mendocino county, and then lake county, napa county, maybe solano later today. down to santa clara by tonight. it will be close. after that, we have another system coming in friday to saturday that will give us a cool, cool pattern. a lot of clouds, drizzle. breezy at times. not as windy. slightly warmer today compared to yesterday, i would hope so. again, cloud cover building up

from the mountains heading to us later in the day. 60s to mainly low 70s. be a couple of mid. i think pie default we get more -- by default we get more sun. temperatures will rebound a little bit. i think we go cloudy, sunny, cloudy. >> cloudy and cool. >> back and forth. okay. thank you. 7:2. a young musician afraid to show her face after being targeted by bold thieves. >> how could anyone do this? how could anyone do this to anybody? >> coming up, why an hour of shopping in san francisco's union square came with a high price for a teenager from san ramon. what the police hope will lead to an arrest. and next, a scary story, a young woman died after taking diet pills. new concerns about one of the ingredients that's been banned for more than 75 years.

however it has been pretty slow. san mateo bridge. that's not a bad commute here. it's crowded when you get onto the span. has not been all that bad the when you get to the peninsula, we're looking at traffic on 101 that's a little bit slow? san mateo. 101 at 9 and then you drive down -- at 92 and then you drive down to mountain view. not quite as bad. in the south bay, not quite as bad. 280 and 85 are slow in the northbound direction. 7:33. let's go back to the desk. new developments for you in connection with monday's amber alert for that young boy in fairfield who was inside the family car when the cash was stolen -- car was stolen. alex savidge is in the newsroom to show us the videos between the police and the little boy's parents. >> a lot of back and forth here. well, in the middle of that grantic search going on on monday -- frantic search going on on monday, the missing boy's mother wound up in handcuffs.

water temps, upper 50s, 60s, they finally cool down to 51, 52. that allowed the cool air mass to get the lows to be 50, 51. you can also throw daly city into the mix there. coldest low they've had in a long, long time. colder water temps help. only 55. today we'll bump you up to 60. low cloud deck. there is a lot of moisture here. more so than unusual for april. that's for sure. 50s on the temps or right -- 50, 53. redwood city continues to say 48. 50s for many. 30s up in the mountains. a rather robust delta breeze is giving away to breezy conditions today. 51 bodega bay, san francisco buoy actually saw a 50 and half

we're talking about water. a state's peels court -- appeals court ruled that water agencies cannot used tier billing systems to encourage people to save water. a southern california water

agency is charging higher rates and that violated the proposition passed by voters in 1996 that bans government agencies from charging more for services than they actually cost. a spokesman for san francisco's water agency says it won't be affected because they base their rates on how much it cost to deliver the water. >> what the judge has ruled is that you can't have a conservation reasoning for setting tiers. you have to start with the can costs of service justification first because that's what proposition 218 requires. >> governor brown didn't like that and said this puts a straitjacket on local governments at a time when maximum flexibility is needed for saving water. the santa clara board of supervisors voted to explore water salenation. that takes the salt out of satellite water making

that sun might add hit least to the equation. a big thunderstorm is up in the sierra. there could be big rainers and hailers up there. 50s on the temps. temperatures are about the same as yesterday. they will recover a little bit because they will get more sun. the key is later today, mendocino county, i think sonoma county, lake, napa county, maybe solano could be and even down to san jose in line for possible thunderstorms when they come rumbling back. look at this. don't make too many plans for the weekend. it looks like another system is coming in with very cool temps. a lot of cloud, drizzle. breezy conditions. a little warmer. not a lot. yesterday was very, very cool. so today, 60s and mainly low 70s. all right, sal. anything knew to report? >> highway 24, steve. you know that freeway well. it's bogging down with a couple of incidents. we're going to talk about that.

kid. you heard the 911 calls. she's hysterical but answers every question. that's what they were doing. they were answering her questions. she was answering them but she was upset. >> brock guzman was asleep in the family car monday morning with the engine running when it was stolen from the driveway. that triggered the amber alert. the boy was found a couple of hours later unharmed. investigators are questioning a person of interest in the case. initially officers at the scene became somewhat suspicious because they looked through the front door of the family home and saw what they thought might have been blood on the carpet. that turned out to be nail polish. fairfield police say all along their primary concern was finding that little boy and his parents by the way were released from custody without any charges being filed against him. thank you. police are checking surveillance video to determine how a murder suspect escaped

from their custody before he was tackled by the police chief. >> kind of zig zagging going through traffic. i was able to catch up as he's starting to fall. i went on him and. >> hector arias got out of a locked cell, climbed a barbed- wire fence and escaped a gated parking lot while wearing handcuffs. san jose's police chief chased him down, tackled him down and said it was nothing special. >> that's our job. but the real heros are men and women that are out there every day and you know, i --ish got to be a cop for -- i got to be a cop for a couple of minutes. >> the police chief's shirt was tone. his arm was -- shirt was torn. his arm was scraped. he says the injuries you see on the face in the mugshot didn't come with the scuffle from the police chase, it came from a

fight with police in mexico where he bit two officers and attacked another. san francisco is celebrating the expansion of the pit stop public toilet program. a solar powered toilet is open from 2:00 until 9:00 p.m. tuesday through friday. it's staffed within aandant -- with an attendant. it's been expanded to a year. people who live in the area say the program has reduced the amount of times that they see people going to the bathroom on the streets. new developments in the fight from keeping a mobile home park from being shut down. we've been talking about this. the owner wants to sell it to developers. it's the only remaining park in pam. the san jose mercury news reports last night, the santa clara county board of supervisors voted to find a nonprofit agency to take over that property. the owners want to sell it and give the residents buyouts.

under heavy publish pressure, the santa clara city council has decided it needs more time to study a controversial parking proposal from the 49ers. about 200 soccer moms, dads and young players held signs before the meeting in opposition to the proposal. then they packed the council meeting and voiced their objections to the 49ers' plan to use three soccer fields next to levi stadium as additional parking. now, the team is proposing to lease the fields for $15 million plus a share of the portion of the parking fees with the money going to find soccer fields elsewhere. >> in the ideal world, the properties, the soccer park would be moved to a location that's comparable to what we have. the 49ers would pay for it as they had promised and then the city would then dispose of our property of fair market value. >> the 49ers don't take it personal. i don't take it personal. i think we have to get to the point where we have the best solution to the community, the stadium, soccer parents,

citizens, everybody. >> council members canceled a close session on the issue and will send it to a committee for further discussion. 8:40. still ahead -- a new beauty trend with some pretty ugly results. coming up in 17 minutes, what the reality star kylie jenner is telling her fans who want to -- well, they want to look like her and two of her most famous assets. good morning, everybody. happen pip earth day -- happy earth day. we're talking about recycled electronics. we'll talk about a facility in livermore taking care of some of your old electronics and how these guys are gonna take care of it. we're looking at the south bay commute and we have some slow traffic to be had here on 101. you can see it. northbound 101 getting up to the 880 interchange. it looks like there is a spider on this camera, too but the traffic is not affected. mostly cloudy although there are a few more breaks. there is a lot of clouds. they will be low and high and mid-level cloud.
