we want to turn now to kris sanchez. she has been tracking three other wildfires, triggering evacuations and really carving a path of destruction there. so, kris, one of those fires, as laura was just saying early, it's already been deadly. right. so, sadly, we can confirm that two people died in the eaton fire, which is burning in the altadena pasadena area, along with the angeles national forest, which just exploded in size overnight because of those winds that jennifer bjorklund was talking about. the eaton fire, now at 10,600 acres. and the danger, as she said, is far from over and in fact, is getting worse by daylight. you can see not only the destruction of the eaton fire there in the pasadena area, but the fire that also continues to burn in the areas where there isn't really much left to burn. and there are also injuries among the residents there and also among the firefighters. now, overnight, a pasadena nursing home had to be evacuated. and you see health care workers pushing some of the patients away in wheelc

so, kris, tell us more about this. well good morning to you, marcus and laura. at this point it is not clear why those san francisco police officers were pursuing that suspect, only that the pursuit did not end the way that it was supposed to. this was the scene around four this morning. and you can see that sfpd patrol car along with that white car, they crashed. the white car is the suspect vehicle. they also hit a residence. and there were people inside at the time. fortunately, no one inside was hurt. this was at the corner of san bruno avenue and paul avenue. what we know right now is that at least two officers and the suspect suffered minor injuries and were transported to the hospital. all three appear to be okay. police have not told us why they were pursuing that suspect at this point. but i looked up the department. policy and pursuits are only allowed if officers have reasonable suspicion or probable cause that a felony or misdemeanor has occurred, is occurring, or is about to occur. now we have a crew headed to the scene. we'll bring you more details
