we also are looking at other parts of the bay. kind of moved the maps to the south bay because i noticed that northbound 101 traffic is going to be busy approaching the airport exit. let's go to live pictures. i want to show you the traffic here at the toll plaza is backed you as you get up to highway 17. i'm gonna go out of order a little bit. but i want to show you we do have slow traffic on 280 northbound. i think that was northbound 280 from about 101 to about 17. the contra costa county sheriff's office announced that an overnight shooting has turned into a homicide investigation. it's the second deadly shooting since saturday on or near highway 4 out in baypoint. we have a map here that shows both shootings. the latest happened last night at san marco boulevard and highway 4. saturday's shooting on the highway near bailey road. alex savidge is live with what you've just learned. >> reporter: the sheriff's

office confirming this now is a homicide case but they are not offering any more details about the victims here. we know that someone fired into a car late last night here near highway 4 close to the freeway. next to san marco boulevard. what's unclear is if the shots were fired from another car or what the situation was exactly. this happened just before midnight last night. investigators from contra costa county sheriff's office were called in here to begin gathering evidence at the scene. they did so for several hours. now, after shows shots were fired here near the freeway, a car that was involved in the shooting was driven over to john muir medical center in concord and that's where doctors treated that gunshot victim, at least one gunshot victim that we know of. that white compact car was roped off with crime scene tape in the parking lot of the hospital. you can see some of the windows were shattered and the car appeared to have a number of bullet holes in it. this was the second shooting in this area in the past week. sheriff's deputies are ent

have their own concerns. we spoke to a resident who lives in the foothills of morgan hill about the upcoming holiday. >> doesn't take much to light a fire up in the foothills. they are very dry. >> we're actually down in the valley, but if the fire spreads to the foothills, it will probably hit our house. gill royal is the own -- gilroy is the only area that allows fireworks. it's kind of scary out there. >> reporter: santa clara county is cracking down. the board of supervisors just passed an ordinance holding property owners responsible by fining emif they are caught with illegal fireworks. in san jose, they are working on new rules that would give city officials the authority to issue citations if caught with illegal fireworks. we've been in a drought for the past four years. putting out a fire that could have been prevented is a huge waste of water. so officials are doing what they can to spread the aware

necessary. back to you. >> thank you. well, the record-breaking drought is now the number one issue for people in the bay area. there is a new poll by the bay area county showing 48% of the people surveyed mentioned the water supply is one of their tom three concerns. 43% had said the cost of living, 37% said housing costs. the top five, traffic and crime. about three quarters of those pulled about sea water to salenation efforts. french's president is to speak with president obama about allegations that the u.s.

consider to remove the confederate flag. >> bring it down now! bring it down now! >> the calls for the flag to come down call for the discovery of the photos of the accused gunman in the shooting posing with the confederate flags. now, lindsey graham says the state stands to lose if the flag is not removed. >> for south carolina's future, our economic future and our ability to move forward as a state in a productive fashion, i think we have to cross this threshold of removing the flag. >> this issue has spread beyond south carolina. in mississippi, they call the symbol offensive. he's pushing to have it removed from the state flag. virginia's governor has ordered the flag removed from specialty license plates. the autopsy report has been released in the freddie gray case. coming up at 7:30, the injury he suffered while in baltimore police custody that likely lead to his death. coming up next, look at

passing that bill would increase the president's chances of a 12-nation pacific rim trade agreement that includes japan, malaysia, mexico and canada. lawmakers plan to vote on three other trade-related bills. one would extend a job retraining program for workers whose jobs go overseas. what are commonly called booth babes, they are out of a job. a few notable conferences throughout our state have banned exhibitors from using attractive models. there is a move to hire people who know something about the industry they are promoting. now, it looks like a government data breach was much worse than feared. millions of people, not just federal employees may have had

had their data compromised. doug luzader has more. >> reporter: good morning. the head of the office of personnel management is going to testify here on capitol hill today trying to explain how it was that they missed it, how so much data ended up in the hands of hackers and this could get ugly. at the moment, the government can only estimate the millions of people, maybe 18 million maybe more who may had their information stolen. it warehouses data not just on government employees but in many instances people they know as well. even people who simply applied for jobs. even the president's chief spokesman said he was affected. perhaps adding to the fration, the head of the -- frustration, the head of the office of personnel management told senators yesterday that no one in the government is to blame. >> i don't believe anyone is

responsible. i believe we're working as hard as we can to protect the data of our employees. >> it's stunning that opm ignored year after year dire warnings from the inspector general. >> reporter: while government officials will say privately that china is almost certainly behind the attack, at the white house, there are concerns about upsetting china, a crucial trade partner and a country that could play an important role in nuclear talks with iran, a position driven home by china's vice premier who delivered a blunt warning. >> translator: confrontation with a negative gain in which both sides will pay heavy prices and the world will suffer, too. >> reporter: and as far as the hack itself goes, we've heard so many different numbers in recent weeks after this thing was first disclosed. initially it seem like 4 million. now they are talking 18.

one estimate has a number as high as 30 million people who may have had their data compromised. >> thank you. 7:16. wrigley field in chicago, a baseball fan made an amazing catch while at the same time holding his baby. now, the cubs were playing the dodgers when this foul ball went down the first base line, adrian gonzalez reached for it but instead the cabs' fan caught it with his right hand while holding his 7-month-old son, when was still drinking from a bottle. >> i'm just trying to protect him. i see the ball coming up and just kind of fell in my hands. hopefully adrian is not too upset. >> well, umps ruled fan interference. however, hartley was not kicked out of his seat. his wife was nervous. and she saw her husband catch a foul ball while holding their

baby. adrian gonzalez, the first baseman was not impressed. he said he would have been more impressed if the baby had caught the ball. >> well, come on. baby is only 7 months old. doesn't know what happened. >> >> no idea. >> i look at that and say i bet sal castanedo can do that. if. what do you think? >> you can't be afraid of the ball. you get hurt when you are afraid of it. you just kind of -- just kind of walked up to it and -- >> he's the man. >> he's the man. good morning, everybody. let's take a look at the commute now. traffic is going to be busy in some areas. still, it's been kind of a rough day on some of the bridges. 15, 20-minute delay. no major problems on the bridge. but approaching the golden gate bridge we had a couple of problems and had slow traffic on the san mateo and on the dumbarton bridges. let's take a look now at some of these commutes here on 880

regulations as soon as next month. inspectors identified severe dry rot in the wooden beams that supported that balcony. the balcony collapsed, six people were killed. however, the city's planning collector stopped short of blaming the collapse on dry rot. in fact, the director says inspectors may never know for sure. >> what we'll do is make a set of recommendations that will hopefully deal with any form of moist moisture. >> there may be a requirement for these balconies to be built with similar materials. they will require inspections of all outdoor balconies in the first six months of when they pass the regulations and then they would need to be rened every five years in the future. president obama is meeting with the families of former u.s. hostages as he announces a

good morning. live in front of marina, ma -- marina market. the study says people need to be aware of what they eat and how much they eat so it doesn't turn into waste. this study conducted by tns global and released by the american chemistry council states on average, americans waste about $640 worth of food every year. the study surveyed 1,000 adults and found 73% threw out leftovers. 53% food out food once a week. now, a similar study by the u.s. government last year found that amount closer to $900 a year for household and wasted food but people we spoke with this morning say they are not surprised. >> food is expensive. if you are spending hundred, 200 a week on groceries and you are throwing out a quarter of

that, that add up. you are hitting $1,000 a year at that rate. >> i mean, it's surprising but the numbers are surprising. but even in our household, this was myself -- just with myself and my husband, it happens. we're cleaning out the fridge and we're like gosh. >> >> reporter: the survey points to several factors about wasted food, including not packaging leftovers properly, buying too much food to preparing too much food. now the epa in another study last year says wasted food is the most prevalent items in landfills and contributes to grass emissions. it sid there was concern about the amount of energy wasted. in terms of this study, 79% say they are bothered by the fact there is a lot of food being wasted but only 15% say they were bothered by the impact on the environment. gasia, you know exactly that phrase that i'm talking about

earlier where you try to tell your kids eat your food and the food goes straight in the trash can. >> you will sit there until you finish. it but we both have little children. and the modern thing is let them serve themselves to see what their tumny can hold. >> reporter: we're trying different things right now. we're wasting a lot of food. guilty as charged with this study. >> and mom and dad eat it. [laughter] >> thank you. all of those pictures who take pictures and post them on instagram may notice something different. would you rather have a root canal or ask for a raise? it looks like they would do just about anything to avoid having to ask for it. good morning. we're looking at the south bay commute. right now we're looking at a commute that's not too bad.

it's a little bit slow. but it does clear up after highway 17. we'll tell you more about this -- coming up. well, one day we warm up. next day we cool down. yesterday was a warmup. but there is a little bit more fog and a breeze. we'll take a look at those wednesday temps and also toward the weekend.

new questions about the safety of the rods on the new span of the bay bridge. caltrans says tiny new cracks were found in some of the rods that connect the bridge's tower to the base. almost 407 of the rods passed the test but the bases are immersed in salty water. caltrans says there's enough evidence of cracks on a few rods for them to believe there are cracks from all of them.

the chief engineer says he will do whatever is necessary to fix the problem, including replacing all of the rods. it depends on the results of a deeper analysis by a group of experts that report is expected by september. 7:44. in san jose, they are still counting the votes from the special election to fill a city council seat. 80% of the votes have been counted in the race for the district 4 council seat and candidate man nguyen is leading tim oroscoe by more than 13%. that's a smaller lead than last night. district 4 represents north san jose. final vote is expected by friday night. last april, there were ten candidates in the election. none of them received the 50% of the vote needed to to win. the two candidates received the most votes. the eventual winner will fill the seat vacated by chu. most people think they

should be making more money but when it comes for asking for a raise, that's when things get uncomfortable. pam cook has a survey with pretty surprising results. >> it's not surprising that people are afraid to ask for a raise. a new survey shows there are several areas where people feel optimistic about their job. >> the majority of people say they are feeling upbeat about the current job market. new job prospects or the stability of their current job. however, the survey also finds that while many people think that they deserve a raise. many are very uncomfortable asking for one. in fact, 32% of the full-time workers surveyed say they would rather clean their house than ask for a prize. 13% would look for a new job. 7% said a root canal is more appealing than asking for more

money. 6% say they would rather be audited by the irs. >> i think you have to think about when you look at your total reward in terms of why urcareer, you know, you probably in this market, if you -- the right type of background and skillset you can probably find another job that would pay you a little more money, but is that necessarily what you are looking for? so again, bebe informed, coming to the table educated and thinking about what you are really looking for. i think that guides the discussion better. >> analysts say self-confidence is the foundation of a successful career. your professional growth and earning potential depend on not just how good you are on your job but your ability to negotiate. next hour, some advice from the staffing firm on how you can better prepare yourself to ask for the raise. >> it's so hard to do but this

is how you put food on the table. i have to psyche myself up and give myself a pep talk. it's hard. >> not as hard as the irs. i don't believe that one. >> right. right. >> we'll be watching next hour. >> it. 7:47. let's get you moving so you can make some money. sal is watchth roads -- watching the roads. how does it look? >> we have a problem. it just came in. there is a person reported underneath a b.a.r.t. train at the west dublin station. this is the last station on the blue line here. i'm gonna circle it. this is the -- the train was going east out to dublin/pleasanton but that means they can't turn around and go back. this entire dublin/pleasanton into san francisco line will be affected. we're trying to get more information from b.a.r.t. but they are expecting major delays. they are describing this as
