and a string of dangerous sideshows around the bay area, including one on the upper deck

of the bay bridge. >> this is ktvu, fox two news at six. >> and good evening, everyone. i'm mike mibach. we begin tonight with a solo vehicle crash in the east bay that killed one child and injured several other individuals. ktvu leo carroll here now in studio and bailey, the driver of that vehicle. nowhere to be found tonight. >> mike. yeah, the highway patrol have released very few details about this accident. what we do know is that a nine year old girl was killed. four other passengers were taken to the hospital, all with major injuries. and that driver did leave the scene. according to chp and contra costa county, an suv with six people in it traveling northbound on interstate 680 went off the road just after 5 a.m. on sunday and crashed into a median at the interstate 680 and highway 242 interchange. the suv flipped multiple times, causing the people inside to be ejected, and a nine year old girl was pronounced dead on scene and four other women were taken to

john muir hospital in walnut creek with serious injuries, according to initial investigation, several people in the suv were not wearing a seatbelt. ktvu traveled to where the crash happened and noticed the guardrail was mangled, though the highway patrol would not say if that was because of today's crash. chp says the driver of the suv, a gray mazda cx nine, was a 30 year old hispanic male. he got out of the suv and walked away. investigators are looking for that driver, but so far have not released his name. his description, or what may have led to the accident. chp says the crash is still under investigation. they're also asking anyone who may know the whereabouts of that driver, or anybody who may have seen or been driving on that stretch of freeway this morning and may have seen anything to contact. contact contra costa. chp mike, back to you. >> yeah, let's hope those tips come in. bailey. thank you. at least one person was injured in a string of sideshows across the bay area overnight. one of them brought traffic to a standstill

on the bay bridge. ktvu tori gaines reports. >> it's a familiar sight for many people across the bay area, cars spinning at high speeds as onlookers cheer and try to avoid getting hit. sideshow swept across at least four cities saturday night, starting on the peninsula. here's what was captured on video. the string of incidents started around 11 p.m. in menlo park. dozens of spectators could be seen nearby as vehicles did donuts in the intersection. next came the stanford area, where the sideshow lasted around 15 minutes at the corner of coyote hill road and page mill road, lasers can be seen aimed across the spinning cars as smoke billows up from the tires. mountain view was next up, where a group gathered at middlefield road and bernardo avenue. video shows several spectators leaping out of the way of cars, doing spins at high speed, highlighting how dangerous these sideshows can be. police confirmed to ktvu that a 20 year old woman from pittsburgh suffered a broken ankle after being struck by a car in that sideshow. two sideshows also

took place in oakland, one on 42nd in international boulevard, not far from the spartan final. around 2 a.m, tons of fireworks could be seen popping off in that area. oakland police confirmed that at least 100 vehicles and dozens of spectators were at that sideshow . opd arrived on scene and dispersed the crowd, but police are still investigating. another sideshow sprang up near alma and excelsior around 3 a.m, but the big activity took place in the middle of the bay bridge around 3:15 a.m. video shows hundreds of people gathered on the bridge as vehicles spin in circles. the bridge was blocked for nearly 20 minutes by the crowds, bringing traffic to a dead stop. >> four people were detained, two of which were arrested and two of which were cited for aiding abetting in a sideshow. two of the people that were were detained were determined to be juveniles. >> it's unclear at this time if the sideshows were made up of the same crowds, or if different groups showed up to each site the evening or early morning

hours, especially on a weekend, are can be make it difficult to respond as the officers are typically engaged in other enforcement activities, typically dui investigations or arrests. >> the ability to respond in a expedient manner obviously can be delayed when they do block all the lanes of traffic in oakland. >> tori gaines, ktvu, fox two news two boys from mountain view who were reported missing early yesterday have been found safe. >> the chp had issued an endangered missing advisory for nine year old daniel wu and four year old david wu early yesterday morning, officers say the two boys were with a woman, 38 year old taylor wu. the chp now says all three have been safely located but did not elaborate on where they were located or the circumstances behind their disappearance. today marks six months since the deadly october 7th attack by hamas on israel. officials say the attack killed 1200 people, and more than 250 others were

taken hostage. 130 israelis are reportedly still being held by hamas. as fox's trey yingst reports, a former hostage is now opening up about being held in captivity. >> that's right. it's been six months since the october seventh massacre. we sat down with one woman who was released as part of the november ceasefire deal. she describes what life was like as a hostage and venmo goldstein i am ken almog. >> goldstein. and for the past three years, i've lived in kibbutz kfar aza. nadav, my husband, they shot him at point blank range in the chest. there were 2 or 3 gunshot wounds. i remember he was lying on the floor like that quietly. i remember him with his legs folded and lying quietly and straight away. there were five terrorists inside the mohammad. the safe rooms with weapons, opening the closet there and telling us to get dressed. we were naked. we were in our pajamas and they demanded that we dress up. >> what's going through your

mind in that moment? >> shock. >> terrible fear, fright and shock. we got out in a line. the boys were already going out, and then yam followed before that, one of the terrorists saw yam's uniform shirt. he opened it like that. i remember his big green eyes and he screamed at me in arabic. and i don't understand what he's asking me. >> so you're you're driven into gaza with your children. what are those first few hours and days like shiva? >> it took us seven minutes to get to gaza and seven weeks to return. when we came back from gaza, the unbearable ease of how it all happened was unbearable at first. when we arrived, we reached the tunnel. we were there for two days. >> what were the interactions with hamas like when you were held in these locations? >> they often absorbed them. >> actually, in an absurd way. they guarded us, protected us.

sometimes even with their bodies from the israeli air force strikes. we talked about this absurdity. we talked about this absurdity several times. and they also made sure to point it out, like, we protect you from the air force attack. that is the word absurdity. >> the reason hamas wanted to keep these hostages safe is to exchange them as part of a larger ceasefire deal for palestinian prisoners in tel aviv. trey yingst, fox news. >> and in lafayette today, a grassroots group held a community vigil to honor the estimated 130 hostages still being held in gaza. this was on the overpass along highway 24. signs reading bring them home, and other posters were set up, while other waved israeli flags. >> news being what it is, you know, people focus on what happened last night and this morning and right now and i get it. and so if we're not up here shedding light, if we're not up here as a community, reminding people we feel like they will be

forgotten and we can't let that happen. >> organizers say they also want to see the red cross work even more, to gain information on the health conditions of the hostages. an estimated 30,000 palestinians have been killed in the israel-hamas war. officials say, many of them children. today, san francisco state senator scott wiener released a lengthy statement on social media. it says in part, everyone is losing this war and the war needs to end. the hostages must be returned home, every single one of them, including the bodies of those raped and killed by hamas while held hostage. hamas must be removed from power. hamas must not be allowed to govern gaza. the state senator goes on to say the world must also commit to rebuild gaza. for gazans, and we must move toward an independent palestine living side by side in peace with israel. some have given up hope for a two state solution. yet as hard as it is, it's the only solution. an inmate at the main jail in san jose was found dead in his cell.

authorities say the 27 year old man was found unresponsive 415 yesterday morning. they say cpr was administered until medical personnel arrived. he was pronounced dead just about 25 minutes later. the sheriff's office says the inmate, whose name has not been released, was in his cell alone at the time of his death and says there is no evidence of any foul play. the alameda county sheriff's office seized more than 2 pounds of fentanyl during a raid in oakland. authorities say. in addition to the drugs, detectives discovered $14,000 in cash along with drug manufacturing equipment. three people were arrested and booked into the santa rita jail on suspicion of drug sales related charges. deputies say they executed search warrants on friday, leading them to the drugs and those arrests. convoys of vehicles resumed today in monterey county to help people stranded by a crumbling cliffside right near big sur. the edge along highway one collapsed following the recent rain. caltrans closed just about 40 miles of roadway, stranding

more than 1000 tourists and residents in the area. convoys throughout the day helped some people get out of that area. crews are still trying to shore up the roadway this weekend alone. they've been able to install k-rail crash cushions and temporary striping there at the site. and highway one in capitola back open tonight after both directions were closed for the demolition of the capitola avenue bridge, caltrans used heavy equipment to take down the decades old structure. the roadway was closed last night, 7:00, and then reopen ahead of schedule this afternoon. a new overcrossing is expected to open this coming summer or fall. coming up, a southwest airlines flight was forced to declare an emergency just moments after taking off. today, the engine trouble that prompted the pilot to head back to the airport, plus. >> excitement is building. with just hours to go before monday's total solar eclipse. i'm max gordon in the path of totality in cleveland, ohio. more on that

solar eclipse. >> it's incredible. it's everything people say it is, it's just an entirely different experience. >> this is the path of totality, starting in texas and cutting northeast across the country. if you're not in that zone, it will still be worth seeing. it just won't be a total eclipse. people traveling far and wide to the cities and towns expected to get the best view, but fueling some concern for those who came all this way is the potential for clouds in the forecast. one person we talked to in cleveland says he booked a last minute airbnb in quebec, just in case conditions aren't ideal, i want to experience it unobstructed as much as possible. >> i already drove about 10.5 hours just to get here, and i'm willing to drive another 9.5 hours just to see a more certain, clear version. >> others say they're excited, no matter what the weather has in store. >> i still see like it turned dark. i think. so i think it'll still be cool regardless when the moon completely blocks out the sun, it essentially looks like it turns night for a bit,

and i'm just really excited to see that. >> but don't forget to wear proper eye protection. looking directly at the sun before and after totality can damage your eyes, and there's good reason people don't want to miss out the next total solar eclipse seen in the us won't happen for another 20 years. in cleveland, ohio, max gordon, fox weather and there are a number of eclipse events planned for tomorrow right here in the bay area. >> the exploratorium in san francisco will hold a solar eclipse viewing party, as well as the chabot space and science center in oakland and the lawrence hall of science in berkeley, all three starting at ten in the morning. the partial eclipse here in the bay area will peak at 1113, with the moon covering just about 34% of the sun. now to the race for the white house. donald trump is celebrating what he is calling his best night yet for raising campaign cash. the former president and his wife attended a fundraiser last night. it was held at the palm beach, florida, home of billionaire investor john paulson. the trump campaign says the single event raised

more than $50 million. the money raised is expected to be split among various republican organizations, including the save america pac, which helps pay for trump's legal bills. last night's fundraiser is more than double what president biden raised at a recent event in new york city. however, trump is still trailing president biden when it comes to raising campaign money. the biden campaign says it took in more than $90 million in contributions last month alone, the democratic national committee and biden's reelection campaign said yesterday it ended the first quarter of the year with more than $192 million in cash. the biden campaign says 96% of donations were less than $200. a powerball ticket sold in the state of oregon is worth more than $1.3 billion. a single ticket sold in portland matched all six numbers, ending a powerball winless streak that began three months ago. the winner does have that option to take a cash value of a $620 million dollars lump sum, or the

leading a new trend in education. from the fall of 2022 to the fall of last year, the number of students enrolled in vocational based community colleges increased 16, and the number of students studying construction rose 12. since the year 2021. that post pandemic statistic comes as a number of prominent universities, such as yale, are now costing more than $90,000 a year. >> college is expensive. i want to work with my hands, and i want to learn something that i can actually use. >> trade schools definitely offer more job security right now because there's a lot of unknowns with artificial intelligence, and you don't want to invest in a career track with a degree program where you don't even know if you're going to have a job by the time you graduate. >> experts say that while trade schools can lead workers to max out on their earnings early on, they can earn more money if they start their own business. a controlled cultural burn is planned for tomorrow in lake

county. the tribal eco restoration alliance says it's going to conduct a cultural burn in the community of lower lake, just south of clear lake. the alliance says this will reduce fuel loading, making the community more resilient during wildfires and improve the health of the land and plants. the burn will be done in conjunction with cal fire. it is expected to begin 8:00 tomorrow morning and finish in the late afternoon. >> and we've turned a big corner in terms of the weather. you know, we had a little bit of rain all last week, kind of cooler on and off, snow in the mountains, snow on our bay area peaks. and of course, last couple of days things have mellowed out today, a little bit warmer, five degrees warmer than yesterday, and for 4 or 5 degrees warmer than yesterday. and then by tomorrow we're going to be popping into the low 70s. kind of nice. so the next couple of days it's springtime and i don't really see anything off on the horizon that's going to create wet weather for us. this is the time of year, of course, where anything can happen. but right now, the models i'll show them to you are pretty, pretty,

pretty certain that we're going to be dry certainly through this week. the live camera shot you're looking down towards, it looks like south san francisco out towards the out towards well you can see san jose. you can see the vollmer peak off in the distance there, which is amazing visibility and i guess that was my next point was when you get good winds like we have, the winds really clean out the atmosphere. we've got a spring pattern that has developed, which is, well, it's spring, so okay, it makes sense. and we got it west northwesterly wind 20 miles an hour gusting in novato, oakland gusting to almost 30 miles an hour. so this northwesterly wind is with us all week for the most part. here's the model. this is tomorrow afternoon. you kind of just got the arrows in. you can see along the coast where you'd expect the strongest winds. that's where they'll be. right along the coastal hills. so this is spring. and the same thing happens on tuesday. not quite as robust, but you get that afternoon sea breeze. so an indication that we are back into a kind of a spring pattern. how long it sticks around it can change quickly, but as long as how long it sticks around, you never know. but right now this

week looks dry. there's a weather system to the north. the days get longer, gets warmer down here. the jet stream starts to recede to the north. that's the jet stream. this line right there, kind of the jet stream. always cold air to the north, warmer air to the south. so when it gets warm down here, summer starts to go up here. and when it goes up here, there's nowhere for it to bring. no way it can bring easily bring storms to us. so when that jet stream goes up, days get shorter. in the winter. jet stream comes down. that's why temperatures drop and that's why rainfall drops and snow all through november, december and january. so as we go in tonight, we got temperatures are kind of chilly. not as chilly as last night, but still pretty chilly. we'll see numbers most likely in the upper 30s in the coolest spots, maybe mid 30s. i'll get you a little bit of frost and then the rest of us in the low 40s. so the model does this tomorrow morning. tomorrow afternoon. here goes tuesday. nothing changes tuesday morning tuesday afternoon. little coastal fog shows up on wednesday morning, which makes sense. and the forecast highs

for tomorrow. there they are warmer into the low 70s. the five day forecast i think you're going to like that. it looks nice and dry. and hay fever pollen tree pollens will become more noticeable certainly by wednesday thursday this week. >> all right bill thank you. shake shack today announcing it's giving away free chicken sandwiches. well kind of knocking chick fil a's policy of closing on sunday. shake shack says it will be giving out free fried chicken sandwiches every sunday this month. customers must pay place a $10 minimum order before entering the promo code check in sunday. all right. south carolina's women's basketball team on top of the world yet again. jason appelbaum has that story coming up next in sports. and coming up tonight on the 10:00 news. it's been six months since hamas's attack on israel. how bay area residents tonight are remembering the ve lost

undefeated south carolina versus iowa and their superstar guard caitlin clark, playing in her final game with the hawkeyes before turning pro later this month. and the ncaa all time

leading scorer came out firing clark from curry range to put iowa up by double digits early. she scored 18 of her 30 points in the first quarter, but south carolina settled down and assumed control in the second half. camila cardoso did much of the damage. strong inside with the rebound put back puts the gamecocks up by eight. late. cardoso though 15 points, 17 rebounds. redemption and revenge for don staley's squad after iowa ended their undefeated season in the final four last year, they flipped the script tonight on caitlin clark, who will be the top pick in the wnba draft later this month. south carolina wins 8775 to finish a perfect 38 and zero and capture its third title in seven years. bob melvin, looking to take the giants opening home series of the season against his former team, the san diego padres. the rubber match this afternoon in front of 40,000 plus. hello?

yeah, we see you right there. giants down 2 to 1 in the ninth with runners on the corners. when they catch a break. michael conforto grounds out to first but no inning ending double play hassan kim drops the ball. conforto takes third and tyler fitzgerald comes in from third on the error to tie the game at two apiece. next batter, it's matt chapman. he's picked up a bunch of rbis for the giants so far, and he lines one to right. jorge soler is going to trot in from third for the go ahead run on chapman's ninth rbi in the first ten games with the giants, and san francisco wins 3 to 2. improves to four and six. they next host washington for three, beginning tomorrow. you can say an a's fan in the motor city as oakland wraps up their three game set with the tigers and a good day for the a's, zach gelof with two men on it, crushes this jack flaherty fastball into the seats in left for a three run homer. gelof had four hits, four

rbis after beating the tigers four nothing yesterday. they beat them seven one today to improve to three and seven, and they head to texas on tuesday. how about the sharks? a couple of looks like sleep deprived sharks fans right there. they're done that i've been there. two sharks down three two to the coyotes in the third. nick schmaltz you got to see the replay. drops it off between his legs. and then the slap shot for clayton keller. sharks go down 5 to 2. and as the coyotes come out on top today in san jose. all right jason thank you. >> and thank you for watching. don't forget to stream the latest news and weather on your smart tv nytime. d nload e x lotinations, but if you want world-class scuba diving, ancient mayan history, authentic garifuna culture, and real live cowboys, well, honduras is your spot. hadn't thought much about it? well, maybe it's time you did. join us, and we'll show you why.
