organizers say they staged the event and they put it on pause for the first three months of the year because of financial problems. the monthly block party has been a gathering place for artists and performers and small businesses in oakland for several years. >> there is progress being made on a major commute mess that's tying up traffic on southbound 880 in hayward this morning, a big rig crash blocking lanes and cars backed up for miles. an update on the situation and the one bit of good news from the scene, plus the search for a missing swimmer in the north bay about to resume with the swimmer was doing right before disappearing in the waters of the russian river. and the warning for everyone about the dangers in the water. plus, after almost ten years of work, the san francisco police chief says his department has reached a critical milestone on what's changed in sfpd and what prompted the action. >> from ktvu, fox two news. this

is mornings on two. >> good morning and welcome back. i'm gasia mikaelian and good morning i'm dave clark. >> it is a friday. it's april 12th. good to see you on a friday. >> good to be here. what a mess. >> we have some big problems. we're starting our 7:00 hour with that traffic alert in the east bay. >> as you've been reporting here, a big rig overturned in hayward blocking lanes of southbound 880. there is a mess on the highway, but progress is being made. ktvu james torres has been giving us a good look very often here throughout the mornings. what do you report now, james gasia dave, good morning to you. >> we are on southbound 880 this morning just north of the san mateo bridge. if you were going to hop over toward the peninsula, here's what we're seeing now. at this point, we're still seeing a little bit of traffic flowing through the scene of the crash here. we're actually going to expect some more lanes to open up momentarily as soon as crews can get some of the oil that spilled through some of the fuel that's spilled onto the roadway, cleaned up. once they can mark it safe enough for cars to drive

through, you'll see those lanes open up. just about a half hour ago, you saw one half of that tractor trailer, i should say one of those trailers, because it was a truck that was carrying two trailers overturned and a few lanes over. what they've done is bring in two tow trucks, push that over kind of close to the center divide to give these crews the chance to kind of clean this up and then get this moving. i had a chance to talk with a sergeant with chp out of the hayward office a little earlier this morning to kind of give us an idea of how this all started. >> for an unknown reason, it veered off to the right, hit the wall on the right shoulder, lost control, and came back and hit the center median wall there where the trailer overturned. no injuries. report here. no injuries. the drivers, perfectly fine. >> yeah, that is the bit of good news here today. no other cars on the roadway. when that tow truck, kind of crossed all lanes of traffic and ended up smashing

to the center divide so no one else was hurt. and as you heard, the driver working with chp this morning also expected to be perfectly okay. so i'll take you back live out here to the scene here. because what the next step is going to be that one little trailer. remember this truck was hanging on to two trailers, one trailer tipped over. it's still overturned right now. and right now it is sandwiched in between these two large tow trucks. crews are getting all the cables and wiring on it to get it to come back. upright. and then that's when they're going to remove the trucks from the scene here. shortly after that, clean up the mess that's left behind and then eventually reopen the freeway. so if you have this part of 880 as part of your normal morning commute, gosh, it's certainly been a really unlucky week here. but chp comparing to the two accidents from yesterday and today saying this one should be a lot quicker to clean up a lot quicker to handle, and you should be able to get on your way, probably they say in the next hour or so,

of course, to talk about what some of the alternative routes might be for at least the next hour and look at some of your traffic throughout the rest of the bay area. frank mallicoat in the traffic center, taking a look at all that for us this morning. >> all right, james, nice job out there. of course, 880 was a mess yesterday. that another, jackknifed big rig in an accident and here we go again. give you an idea of where it is and all the backup, despite those two lanes open that james showed you. perhaps a third one opening soon. traffic is pretty much gridlocked all the way up to 580 westbound there in castro valley. and that is a mess. so pretty much from san lorenzo all the way down to hayward. and a lot of cars have been getting off at side streets. one in particular, at the winton exit. the side streets are are pretty caked with cars as well. it's very busy and we are, as you can see, another accident at that winton exit. a couple of hondas running into one another. no injuries there, but that's causing some issues as well. so

if you can avoid that area at all costs today, highly recommend it. as for the rest of the bay area commute, it's been great actually. if you can stay off 880, that's highway 24. we just lost it. but take my word for it. it was great because yesterday it was not. so if you're coming in from the east bay, clear sailing through lafayette and orinda and the toll plaza, it's not friday light, but it is friday. and that's a good thing. take your while to get into the city. as for the weekend, let's check in, get your forecast and say good morning to mr. steve paul. thank you frank. >> appreciate that. all right man the for those of you listening you're not watching. you can watch on your 85 inch high def tv. look at that fog just pouring in. my goodness 40s 50s on the temps. big change in the weather today. and that's a cooler pattern for sure. upper low will not move in until saturday evening saturday night, but in advance of that we have low cloud, some sun, a lot of high clouds. rain. looks like it will arrive late tonight. more likely saturday morning and

probably most of the day. saturday as that system begins to make its move. pretty impressive for mid april. no doubt. but there's a change in the weather, coastal fog increasing, cooler low, some sun, but clouds rolling in throughout the day. cooler, breezy, maybe even windy for some, and the wind prone areas 60s to maybe a few 70 san jose south. you guys. >> steve thank you. 705. we're following a developing story up in sonoma county. this is where a young swimmer is missing in the russian river. the search was suspended last night and is resuming this morning. ctv's amanda quintana live in forestville with what we know about the disappearance and resulting rescue effort. amanda >> yeah, well, garcia, that swimmer, was last seen just around five last night. the fire department here in sonoma county says that they were swimming with some friends. that's when they went missing in the water. now, we did see just in the last few seconds, a truck pull in with the sheriff's office. it had jet skis that it was pulling in. so it looks like the search is going to resume here soon. we

are still trying to get confirmation on the gender and the age of the swimmer that they are looking for, but water rescue teams were here for hours yesterday using boats, divers, jet skis, even a helicopter to look up and down the river for that swimmer. but eventually they suspended the search. the sheriff's office and the fire department are going to be out here starting up the search again. they said they had to wait until the sun was up. so they were safely able to do so. fire officials are urging people, though, to be cautious of the dangers of the russian river, especially right now. >> the water is moving very fast. it's still at a high level. if you're not a experienced swimmer. we urge you not to swim in the russian river at this time. i know that it's temperatures are up outside and it draws people to the river, but we caution everybody to be very careful because this is a very common occurrence when the water is moving at the rate it is. >> he also said that the water is still pretty cold at this

point in the year, so hypothermia can set in pretty quickly. we'll be here continuing to update you on the search. when it does happen. i'm told by the sheriff's office they are going to have a briefing when everyone gets here, so hopefully we can get some more information after that. live in forestville amanda quintana, ktvu, fox two news okay amanda thank you. >> time 707. well, today san francisco police are expected to announce what they call a milestone in police reform, the chronicle reports san francisco police have finished adopting the 272 reforms recommended for transforming policing in the city. those reforms were recommended in 2016 by the federal and state departments of justice. after several controversial police shootings. now, while city officials say the reforms have paid off, in numbers reported by the police still show racial disparities in police use of force, well, the vallejo police department and the california justice

department reached a deal on how to move ahead with police reforms. the justice department first opened an investigation into the police department back in june of 2020, just days after a police officer shot and killed sean monterrosa. now as part of a settlement, the city of vallejo and its police force will take new actions led by an independent evaluator and overseen by the department of justice, to address a pattern of, quote, unconstitutional conduct. now, some of those reforms include addressing unreasonable force by holding officers and supervisors accountable, conducting an audit whenever a police officer points a gun at a member of the public, promoting and strengthening partnerships in the community, and making sure that all stops, searches and seizures by the police comply with the law. >> we now know oakland's new police chief will be sworn in in mid-may. that's the latest on

the timeline from the city as to when incoming chief floyd mitchell will take over the oakland police department. he was introduced last month by mayor shengtao. oakland has not had a permanent police chief since mayor tao fired lauren armstrong back in february of 2023. >> our time is now 709. the reaction keeps coming in about the death of oj simpson, his family says. simpson died wednesday after a battle with prostate cancer. the most defining moment in oj simpson's life and fame was the murder trial back in 1995. it was often called the trial of the century. it had a lasting impact not only on the people involved, but the american culture as a whole. the case was followed by millions of people around the country, around the world, and much of it started with this the infamous chase and the white bronco with tv cameras following. people in los angeles rushed to highway overpasses trying to see it

brown oj run. >> i want to see oj last ride, if that's what it's going to be. >> well, i think it's important for 2024 audiences to remember or be be reminded of just how important this trial was to the public. i mean, everyone tuned in now, the case itself marked a change in the way trials were covered by the media cameras were in the courtroom. >> people watched all over the country, and it came as the sting of the acquittal of the police officers in the beating of rodney king was still fresh in the minds of people, including the jury in the oj simpson case, there had been a significant amount of racial tension and racial unrest, particularly revolving around policing and the lapd. rodney king, to many blacks, prove! >> you see what we've been saying all along? it's an unfair system weighted against african americans, especially african american males. now along comes

o.j. so it was ripe for the pickings. >> we, the jury in the above entitled action, find the defendant or orenthal james simpson, not guilty of the crime of murder and unforgettable moment. >> several surveys at the time of the verdict found there was a vast racial divide between black and white americans, about the opinion of the jury result. but more recent polls showed that more black americans now believe oj was guilty compared to the years after the jury verdict. >> many people new to the bay area may not know. oj simpson was born and raised in san francisco. he grew up in potrero hill, where he developed his football skills at the rec center in that neighborhood. he went on to become a football superstar at san francisco's galileo high and city college. simpson wore number 32 during his days in san francisco, the same number he wore during his record breaking career with the buffalo bills. >> one knew oj simpson in the 70s as one of the most dynamic

athletes in america, and he certainly was, you know, at the top, top of the list for the nfl. >> simpson played his final two seasons with the san francisco 49ers in the late 1970s. we have more coverage of oj simpson's life. and death on the fox local app, including an inside look at what was called the trial of the century from former ktvu anchor ted rowlands. download the fox local app on your smart tv and search for ktvu. >> good morning everyone. happy friday, frank mallicoat the traffic center. it's been a very busy day. highway 880 for the second straight day in hayward, attempting to get two trailers off the freeway would shut it down for a good hour southbound. still, gridlock there right now. traffic from hayward all the way up to 582 lanes are open, and we'll have much more on that coming up in just a few minutes. at the bottom of the hour. show

a little love, though, to the south bay. we haven't talked much about the commute down in the san jose area, because look at that lot of green on the screen, a little bit of a backup on 101. other than that, green is good. that is looking terrific today. good for you and the lafayette commute. highway 24 for lamorinda folks and people from walnut creek on their way to the caldecott tunnel. and that's looking much better than it was yesterday that was gridlocked well into the 9:00 hour. but looking nice there. we'll take you up to the north bay richmond-san rafael bridge, getting across the span is going to take you a little time getting through that toll plaza. a little bit of traffic up there as well. that's it in the traffic center. time now. 713 dave. we'll send it back to you. >> okay, frank. thank you. a new election poll just came out this morning. we'll tell you what voters say about both presidential candidates and what they think are their weak spots. >> and a boy who was reported missing is found in the middle of a street in atlanta. how a restaurant took action. what

over a tracking a surge in cases of whooping cough here in the bay area. >> ktvu andre senior is here in studio with what many of these cases have in common. >> andre good morning. garcia and dave, both san francisco and marin counties are dealing with clusters of whooping cough. the

majority of these cases are coming from high schools. san francisco confirming 13 cases of whooping cough since january. most of them are among students attending sacred heart cathedral prep. the health department says most students and their contacts are vaccinated, so no major illnesses. investigators are in communication with administrators to alert families about this potential health threat. >> i don't want my girl get sick because it will miss school and you know i will have bad time. yeah, that's a scary disease, you know? yeah. for me, i really concern the health of everybody. >> she just told me straight up like, hey, you know, i guess there's, like, a little thing going on with the whooping cough , but other than that, like, you know. oh, okay. >> well, tamalpais high in mill valley reported about 100 cases since december. doctors are checking whether there is a link between these two schools. >> i think the fact that the

marin outbreak, there's been that many cases and it's still ongoing, i think maybe there may have been a link. the main thing is to control the outbreak, meaning the way to control it is anyone who has these symptoms have to stay home, have to get the antibiotic. >> public health experts say newborns are the most vulnerable to whooping cough. they do not have any immunity when they're born and they can get really sick. common symptoms include fatigue, sneezing and a mild cough. and if you have a newborn or someone else in your home, does test positive for whooping cough or is exhibiting symptoms. infectious disease specialists say the baby should be kept completely separate from the rest of the family. dave in another room? yeah. >> andre. good advice. thank you. time is 718. after raising more than $10 million, researchers say they're now on the verge of two fda approved treatments for children with a rare form of brain cancer medulloblastoma tumor makes up 20% of all childhood brain

tumors. 500 new cases are diagnosed every year in the us. now, the current treatment was developed back in the 1980s. it leaves children with lifelong cognitive and developmental problems. >> technology and medicine have evolved tremendously in the last decades, decades, but unfortunately not for kids with brain tumors. we know that we have a long way ahead of us, and we still need more support and more people helping us to help all of these kids. >> the fundraising efforts came from a determined father. he teamed up with a leading children's brain tumor specialist after his son, who had a brain tumor, relapsed. >> one woman is being called a hero for risking her life to save that of a little boy. delta harper was working at a restaurant in atlanta. she walked out to take a quick break. she saw a boy who appeared to be lost and didn't

know where he was going. he got off his scooter, stepped away from the curb, and walked right into oncoming traffic. >> like those mother instincts kick in. i just jumped out there and screamed, stop, stop, stop, top of my lungs. >> what would have happened if you didn't act? if i were to act, i think we would have lost him. >> i got him up on the sidewalk and he's just shaking, shaking, shaking. >> harper called police, who told her the boy's parents had reported him missing, so he truly was lost. she says the parents came right over, gave her a great big hug and thanked her for saving their little boy gasia those mother, like i do, sort of feel like i'm a mother to everyone, you know, like that parent instinct, right? >> it kicks in and like frank, your instincts kicked in when you knew we were going to have a basic trial by fire. >> dave now takes a few days off. and what do you know? it gets pretty crazy here. but this happened over two hours ago. big rig jackknife on its side. 880

southbound at 92 west. fortunately, no injuries. drivers okay, no other vehicles involved. but it did create quite a mess. take you there live. that truck which was carrying packages, shut down 880 south for a good hour. they now have two full lanes open and the shoulders you can see to the right. they're making progress, but it's going to take a long time to get all of that off the highway, get it cleaned up and get traffic flowing once again. let's take a look at the map. and there are some issues there. as you can see, traffic is backed up 880 southbound almost all the way to san leandro into hayward, all the way back to 580 west bound. and because of the situation, two other collisions on southbound 880, as you can see there working those near where that big rig went down. so a big mess if you can avoid that at all costs. highly recommend it today. the rest of the commute looks pretty good. so happy friday indeed. let's say

good morning to steve and get your forecast now frank. >> trial by fire. great song by jefferson airplane, especially the live version at winterland, i believe. >> and you were there. >> no, i was not there on that one, but i wish i was all right. thank you, sir, we will look back to yesterday. why yesterday? because we had 80s on the temps and they won't be back till maybe middle of next week. maybe. maybe maybe danville, concord. gilroy, livermore, palo alto, healdsburg, san jose and ross in marin county, all between 80 and 83 degrees. not today, the upper low out here is still has a long way to go. we still have a long way to go. and it won't be here until saturday night is the way it looks. but until then, we're getting the low clouds in advance of it. the onshore breeze and temps are on their way down. santa rosa, redwood city, walnut creek, san jose from 70s 80s yesterday to 60s and maybe a few near 70 today. san jose south forecast models have actually trended pretty wet for saturday saturday night into early sunday for mid-april. this is a pretty deep system, and by that i mean

strong cold. look at the amounts. i mean santa cruz inch and a half ben loman in there as well. there will be some hefty totals coming in. so a chilly, cold system for this time of year. we'll go from 80s to upper 50s on a lot of the highs. by the time we get to saturday. could easily be some two inch amounts in some of the higher amounts, higher elevations from spring to winter up in the mountains yesterday, the sierra was beautiful. last couple of days, 60s snow likely over the weekend. cooler windy is the main message tonight into early saturday. i think the snow really doesn't kick in until saturday night. overnight into sunday morning. 40s 50s on your temps here. i don't think these will change. the low will be with us all the way into sunday morning. so friday changes mainly cooler. some sun in the morning, increasing clouds. but get ready for a big change on the weekend. saturday is rain. i think thunderstorms and a cool breezy pattern on sunday you guys. >> steve thank you 724. the biden administration is navigating a delicate situation in the middle east. how the white house is responding to questions about p si

600 drinking water systems around the country recently reported that the amount of forever chemicals exceeds the new limit set by the epa. a report in usa today found 608 water systems have measured at or above the new limits since last year. now, here in the bay area, there are only two areas that saw excess numbers. livermore failed 7% of its

tests. san jose had two of its 160 tests, with numbers over that limit. sacramento saw some of the worst numbers in the state, at least one test eight times over. the epa recommendations. >> the environmental protection agency is finding five east bay cities and a local water agency more than $300,000 for sewage violation penalties. east bay mud and six east bay cities accused of not doing enough to prevent sewage overflow from reaching the bay. most of that money comes from oakland. it's facing 67 violations and fines of $278,000. berkeley albany, piedmont and alameda were also fined. 728 a new marketplace set to open up in the napa valley. what we know about the upcoming under study set o beme

doubt about it. change in the weather from what we had the last couple of days. rain arrived saturday and probably will be the, on a cold side as well. temperatures dropping today, 60s to near 70. all right. frank is here. 731. he thought it would be easy. it was not. is it getting a little better? >> yeah, actually, they are making progress, steve. that's the good news. about 2.5 hours ago. big rig jackknife 880 southbound. and hayward shut down that highway for a good hour. here it is on the mat. traffic gridlocked hayward to nearly san lorenzo. you can see westbound five 80s. got some issues as well. and in the middle of all that, two fender benders, 880 southbound as well. so it has been just a complete mess. if you're heading down south on 880 the last couple of days, let's go live now where james torres is at the scene and it looks like, they are making some good progress there. james. good morning frank. >> good morning. we are showing you every step of this process this morning. behind me you can

see that, part of the trailer that was once turned over just minutes ago. they finally got it upright with two tow trucks right on either side of it. it was on its side. crews here got the cables on it. they were able to get it back up on its wheels. and now the time has come where they'll just start to clean up a little bit of the mess left behind and then actually move it away from here. i'll go to show you some of the traffic that's flowing, because one lane of traffic truly does make a difference in getting this all flowing here. they did have some traffic going through for most of the morning this morning, but as you can imagine, a lot of people drive down southbound 880. so traffic moving very slow earlier today, probably still moving very slow at this point here, but at least it's going a little bit. so if you've not gone out the door just yet and you still need to make your way out to work or wherever, you may still want to consider some of those alternative routes, because 880 still moving a bit slow. this morning we talked to, chp sergeant earlier today telling us a little bit about

what it takes to get this freeway entirely back open. >> once the vehicle is uprighted , we'll have the sweepers come in and clean up any debris that's left in the roadway, and we'll open it up for traffic to move south. >> how unlucky is this that we kind of had a similar thing yesterday around the same area. >> i know they say bad things happen in threes, but i hope two's just enough. >> yeah, and we're at this at that stage i should say, of this process here. the trailers are now upright here. both of them are hitched on to a tow truck, and now it's just a matter of time before they remove them away from the freeway here, clean up some of the mess left behind, and then deem it safe enough for all of these cars to pass through. we are just north of the san mateo bridge, so if you are using that as part of your normal commute, this is where you're going to see some of that stall again. maybe still consider some of those alternative options for at least the next hour, because we will certainly see some residual traffic here. but of course, we'll let you know as soon as these roadways reopen for the

morning. and once they do, you'll hear it from us. for now, we are live this morning near hayward. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> thank you. james, a plan to change the name of the oakland international airport to include san francisco bay has received preliminary approval from the port of oakland enthusiastically. >> i seven eyes. >> the motion carries. >> thank you. >> the port's board of commissioners unanimously voted to move ahead with the plan to rebrand oakland's airport. the name change would be part of a broader effort to improve the airport, with upgrades planned for the terminal one check in lobby, as well as new local concessions and restaurants. the vote followed several hours of debate, replacing oakland with the san francisco bay further disrespects oakland, its pro oakland. >> it is definitely not any way denigrating the city that i'm so proud of that i've been living in for 40 years. >> the port of oakland has set a final vote for may 9th. the city of san francisco has threatened possible legal action over the

proposed name change, a sign of progress for california's high speed rail project. the state is moving forward with purchasing the trains that will travel up and down the state at 220 miles an hour. this comes as the federal government invested $3 billion in funding for the project at high speed. rail authority says it hopes a contract for the trains will be decided by the end of the year. >> our time now. 736 charges of hate crimes have been filed against a man in san francisco accused of vandalizing a mosque. now, surveillance video from last week shows a man using a skateboard to smash the windows of a mosque on sutter street. he also reportedly made several islamophobic threats. now, police were called wednesday night. they were told that same man was back at the mosque. that is when 35 year old robert gray was arrested. he is due to be arraigned today. >> some people living in san francisco's sunset district are fighting plans to build more luxury high rises in their neighborhood. they gathered for a town hall meeting and said they're worried that the proposed buildings would affect

the existing homes and businesses in the sunset. there is special concern over a 50 story high rise project they're calling the sunset skyscraper. >> some of these people are going to be living in a total solar eclipse from this building . so let's let's make sure that we understand all the impacts to not just, oh, it's a tall building, it's ugly. there's going to be a shadow that's going to be cast on a lot of people as the sun moves around. >> some city leaders say the high rise projects are needed to meet san francisco's growing housing needs and satisfy state housing mandates, a new poll shows. many americans say president biden and former president donald trump did the country more harm than good across a wide range of key issues, the poll from the associated press finds more than half of adults say they think biden's presidency has hurt the country when it comes to the cost of living and immigration. about half say his presidency has done more harm in u.s. relations with other countries. meanwhile, nearly half of adults think former president trump's

time in office hurt the country on voting rights and election security, relations with foreign countries, abortion laws and climate change. >> our time now. 738 experts in the middle east say the biden administration has to walk a fine line between supporting israel and condemning some of its actions in the war against hamas. now, iran's supreme leader vows to retaliate against israel for an attack at the iranian consulate in syria earlier this month, where 12 people were killed, including two iranian generals and one hezbollah militia member. while israel has not acknowledged being involved in the attack, it is bracing for iran to respond. >> whoever hurts us, we hurt him . >> the wicked regime of israel made a mistake in this case, it must be punished and it will be punished. now secretary of state antony blinken has called other countries, including turkey and china, hoping they can intervene and help reduce the tensions

between israel and iran. >> time now is 739. i'm guessing we go straight back to what's happening in hayward on 880, when we run over to say good morning again to frank in the traffic center. >> okay. thank you gang, i've got my track shoes on here trying to keep up with everything, but we're going to start with that big accident down highway 880. we've been keeping a watchful eye on that. i'll just give you the details here before we look at the rest of the bay area, here's some video. they are making great progress. two full lanes now open. both of the tractor trailers are upright. you see them both on their wheels. that is great news. still a slow go as traffic is supposed be moving in those two lanes, but i see it's closed right now. perhaps they're about to get those trucks off. and that is the story there. so it is been a slow, slow day down highway 880. let's take a look at the rest of the bay area if we can. this has

been an issue as well. bay point highway four westbound going in to the concord area. no accidents reported, just a steady, steady slot of cars on their way to work on a friday. that's a look at traffic. we'll have much more on that 880 crash coming up shortly, but let's kick it over to steve paulson on a friday. sir you've had your track shoes on since wednesday. >> i think they're frank. no kidding. no kidding. all right. thank you sir, well our system is it's slowly moving in here. now. we'll get an increase in low clouds already seeing that some higher clouds. but there are some sun breaks here in the morning. so it's i mean, you don't have to worry about really until late tonight. more likely tomorrow. the upper low though. out here? right there. it's pretty dynamic for mid april. it's going to come right over right now right saturday evening we'll be right there. and then it'll start to go down the coast as we head towards early sunday. but the mere fact that this cold core system is on the way will make for some brisk conditions on saturday, compared to where

we were the last couple of days, forecast highs may not get out of the upper 50s for some, and rainfall has trended wetter for many. for the mountains, you're like, oh man, it was nice last couple of days. will that continue? no sunny skies, warm 60s thursday. the weekend though, cooler with wind picking up friday into early saturday. i think snow develops late saturday, more likely in overnight into sunday. 40s 50s on the temps probably won't change any more than what we're seeing right there. but another system. remember the series? the trend is your friend stuck patterns tend to stay stuck there are hints of maybe even more systems towards the end of the month, doing almost exactly this carbon copy. so we're not done yet. they are more spaced out, if you will, from, you know you don't not getting one every 3 to 5 days. they're about every seven or so now. but turning cloudy wind picks up coolers. the main message today rain on saturday. i would think some thunderstorms on sunday seeing some really for mid april some some. that's pretty impressive amounts. and yes i'll say one inch plus santa cruz. look at ben loman half moon bay, san francisco, san rafael, oakland.

those are pretty hefty totals, not as much as a way of snow. so this is more of a rain event than it is for snow. but they'll get a little bit up there. so if you're going today is the day to go or early early saturday. but watch out for wind first with snow developing saturday afternoon, evening overnight into sunday. >> you guys okay steve thank you . well the recent recall of ford broncos it's triggering a federal investigation. we'll tell you the reason. the national highway traffic safety administration believes the fix by ford for the problem will not make those cars safe. let's run out to our newsroom now. >> say hello again to andre senior. as you look to the next hours of mornings on two. >> well, good morning. a rare and aggressive mosquito has been spotted in the south bay. what vector control is doing to make sure the mosquitoes don't spread dangerous diseases. and later on, the nine, as the deadline to file your taxes looms, there are resources available to help ease the burden for low and middle income earners. we'll talk live with the organization that's offering free tax preparation services this weekend

season was canceled. the decision was made wednesday by the pacific fishery management council because of the continued low numbers of chinook salmon.

the governor says that emergency request will help bring financial help to the affected fishing communities. a local salmon fisherman blames the stage for what they call irresponsible water policies. >> we're fighting for these fish. we're making hard sacrifices for the next generation of fish, and we're making the hard decisions about the harvest. now we need the california water managers to make some sacrifices on their end. they need to make some hard decisions about saving these fish as well. >> now, the governor's office said $800 million was allocated over the past three years to restore the habitat and increase water flows and remove dams that were blocking the fish from getting back to their native rivers. >> the longtime interpreter for dodgers superstar shohei ohtani is set to appear in a los angeles court later today. federal prosecutors say he stole $16 million for major league baseball's highest paid player to place thousands of bets. prosecutors say they have a mountain of evidence to back up the charges.

>> we've obtained recordings of telephone calls in which mizuhara spoke with bank employees, lied to them about being mr. ohtani. >> ohtani recently signed a $700 million deal with the dodgers. the baseball superstars repeatedly said he never bet on baseball or any other sport. >> all right, gasia, there is now an investigation over the latest recall by ford, and another recall involves a children's toy. >> tim cook has details on this and a lot more. and what's happening in the markets in today's dollars and cents. >> not a great end to the week. it's been a turbulent week for stocks. lingering concerns about inflation, taking stocks down again this morning. that's despite some good earnings reports starting to filter in as the opening bell rang this morning, though, the dow dropped more than 200 points and it is continued lower since then. one bright spot this week has been the tech stocks. they've done well, especially apple coming out with its new mac products. but the nasdaq down as well.

this morning as we take a live look at the numbers, the nasdaq is down more than 200 points, one and a third percent. the s&p 500 down more than 1. and a live look at the dow jones down about 1% as well. 380 points there. a new pit stop along highway 29 in napa valley is opening this year. michelin starred restaurant press has acquired the space formerly known as dean and deluca, and most recently, gary's wine. the new marketplace, called understudy will have a wine shop curated by a master sommelier, a modern patisserie and a butcher shop focused on dry aged meat, charcuterie and caviar. it is set to open up this summer. there is now an investigation into a ford recall for gasoline leaks. we've talked about this this week. it could cause an engine fire. the national highway traffic safety administration says ford's remedy does not fix the leaks to make the car safe. the recall covers nearly 43,000 ford bronco

sport suvs made in 2022 and 2023, and escape suvs from 2022. ford says it is working with the government agency on the investigation and another recall is a warning for parents. the consumer product safety commission reports more than 250,000 yodo mini speakers used by children may be dangerous. take a look, the agency says the voluntary recall is due to concerns that the lithium ion battery used in the speakers could possibly overheat and catch fire. the company does report six overheating incidents but no injuries. it is offering a free safe charger. i'm pam cook. that's a look at your dollars and cents pam. >> thank you. straight back to interstate 880, the workhorse of the bay area, frank mallicoat, is in the traffic center, hopefully monitoring some improvement. >> yeah, actually, there are gasia. it's good news. this accident pushing three hours now. progress. they got the double trailer. remember it was a cab, a trailer pulling another trailer. one of those trailers

went down. they got them both upright. take you there. live 880 southbound. this is in hayward. it's shut down for a good hour earlier this morning from about 5 to 6. two lanes opened up the number one and two lanes have been closed while they try to get those trucks off the freeway. right now, the good news is nobody was hurt. that driver walked away from the accident and is helping chp down there. here's your end result 880 southbound red line from hayward all the way to san lorenzo northbound into hayward as well, with the lookie loos and three additional accidents in that traffic have happened. all fender benders, nothing serious, but obviously that's going to slow the roll down as well. and it could be a couple of hours before they can open up that highway. but the good news is both trucks are upright tow trucks on the scene, and hopefully they can get them off. 880 here in a quick hurry with more on your weather on this friday, let's say good morning to steve.

>> all right. thank you very much, sir frank. we'll get to it here. some sun here this morning. i mean, today's not totally bad, but it will not be as warm. cooler is the main message. the upper low is driving in. it won't be here until saturday evening. but in advance of that, low clouds, high clouds and rain starts on saturday. so a change to cooler is the main message today here. the low though is going to be a right off to your front door and mine as we head towards saturday evening. so increasing clouds rain is on the way. forecast models have actually trended a little wetter here for some, so we're seeing some one inch amounts being advertised by late saturday into early sunday. that's impressive for mid-april. and not only that, but we'll see some snow in the mountains. i think this is a bigger rain system than it is a snow system. they'll get some, but about 2 to 6 i think covers the spread here on the snow. so if you're going today is fine. the wind will pick up though. there's a lake wind advisory that starts tonight, so the wind will be a factor tonight. early tomorrow before the snow kicks in. friday changes some sun in the morning here, then high clouds and low clouds on the move 5060 onshore breeze will really crank up

later today and into tonight, but rain colder on saturday. some lingering activity. sunday looks a little better monday into tuesday. >> thank you steve. what was supposed to be a joke on facebook marketplace turned into a fundraiser. the series of events that became a large donation to a local food bank. then the death rate for black women giving birth is more than double that of white women. the efforts in the south bay to ex ore

habitable environment. >> now, the clipper is the largest spacecraft nasa ever developed for a planetary mission. it will get extremely close to the europa moon. one of the flybys will be only 16 miles away. well, back here on earth, the center for asian american media has kicked off cam fest season. the executive director says many of the movies this year tackle a variety of tough issues that asian americans face a people who take part in cam fest say, not only has it served as a showcase, but also a support system and hub for asian american film and media makers. >> most of us really want to make an impact, especially within our own communities, so it's really nice to find a community that is very supportive. >> now, cam fest is the nation's biggest showcase for new asian, american and asian films. cam fest runs from may 9th to may 19th with 35 screenings and

has a ways to go. but saturday looks like a rain day. today is a cooler day, so there's a change in the weather. yes, that's the kinks. yes, coast fog increasing, cooler lows. some sun then clouds. cooler breezy, temperatures dropping good ten degrees. not the 80s. we'll say goodbye to those for a little bit. 60s to near 70. all right. frank is here. it has been anything but friday light. although it almost 8:00 in the morning. >> improvement progress, my friend. i got a little progress. yes, they got both those tractor trailers up on their wheels. that is a good thing. still blocking that number one and number two lane that southbound 880 in hayward. but they got the trucks upright. so that means those tow trucks should be able to get them off the highway in a hurry, we hope. but the damage is done. traffic san leandro all the way south down to hayward so that is a meth and northbound as well. 880 heading towards that accident and at least three other minor accidents within that traffic itself. southbound 880. so a very, very difficult

day for those commuters heading down that way. the rest of the bay area has been incident free. in fact. boy, this sure looks good. if you're heading over the bay bridge. half an hour ago it was not good. and right now it looks great to get over an east bay commute looks good as well. let's look at traffic. we've already talked to steve. let's go back to the anchors. >> all right frank, thank you. all right. back to the story you just mentioned a moment ago this morning. we continue to monitor that traffic alert in the east bay. there has been new developments now in just the past hour about that big rig that overturned in hayward early this morning, blocking lanes of southbound 80 and creating a mess on the highway for traffic. ktvu james torres joins us live from the scene with this update. james andre, we are on southbound 880 here near hayward, just right above hovering the san mateo bridge. >> if you were going to cross from this area over to the peninsula with surely was a very slow start this morning. this accident here has been active since about 430 this morning, and we have made an incredible

amount of progress since. at one point that big rig, that tractor trailer, was just spread across all lanes of traffic here. that's because one of the trailers behind the cab of the truck here had turned over on its side and blocked several lanes. now, of course, that's been cleaned up ever since, but we did talk to a chp sergeant earlier today telling us kind of how this all started in the first place for an unknown reason. >> it veered off to the right, hit the wall on the right shoulder, lost control and came back and hit the center median wall there where the trailer overturned. no injuries. report here. no injuries. the drivers, perfectly fine. >> yeah. no injuries. that is the piece of good news this morning as we continue to see some progress here. crews have been working hard since about 4 a.m. cleaning up the mess that has all been left behind. slowly but surely. opening a lane of traffic at a time. and that's been helping kind of relieve some of the congestion that we've seen earlier this morning.

but as you can imagine, on a friday morning just before 5:00 am, many folks are going to be heading on the roadway heading this direction, possibly going toward the south bay, the silicon valley commute, all of that certainly affected this morning. but two lanes of traffic certainly makes a lot of a difference here. so we are probably still seeing a little bit of that residual traffic. however, the mess here on 880 should be cleared some way soon. here. we know these, trucks are now upright. they are hooked up to tow trucks. so we are just waiting for caltrans to give them the green light to remove them off the freeway, clean up some of the debris that's left behind, and then reopen every lane of the freeway here safely. for some cars to pass through. of course, once that happens, we will let you know. reporting live this morning i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> james thank you. we'll move now to a developing story in the north bay. rescuers returning to the russian river in forestville this morning to search for a

young swimmer who went into the water and never came out. a group of friends went swimming around steelhead beach yesterday afternoon. the sonoma county sheriff's department tells the press democrat. two boys, believed to be about 14 and 15 years old, had trouble getting out of the water. one eventually made it out and was taken to the hospital. the other swimmer remains missing. the search was called off late last night because of darkness, but divers are returning today. ktvu amanda quintana is in forestville. we'll bring her in for a live report coming up at 830. >> time now is 805 today. san francisco police are expected to announce what they call a milestone in police reform. the chronicle reports that sfpd. well, they finished adopting the 272 reforms recommended to transform policing in the city. the reforms were recommended back in 2016 by the federal and state departments of justice. after several controversial police shootings, city officials say the reforms have paid off. numbers reported by the police still show racial disparities in police use of force.

>> the vallejo police department in california justice department reached a deal on how to move forward with police reforms. the justice department first opened an investigation into the police department in june of 2020, days after a vallejo officer shot and killed sean monterrosa from the back seat of an unmarked police vehicle. now, as part of a settlement, the city of vallejo and its police force will take new actions led by an independent evaluate and overseen by the department of justice, to address a pattern of unconstitutional conduct. some of the reforms include addressing unreasonable force by holding officers and supervisors accountable, conducting an audit whenever an officer points a gun at a member of the public, promoting and strengthening partnerships in the community, and ensuring that all stops, searches and seizures by officers are compliant with the law. we now know oakland's new police chief will be sworn in in mid-may. that's the latest on the timeline from the city as to when incoming chief floyd mitchell will take over the

oakland police department. he was introduced last month by mayor shengtao. oakland has not had a permanent police chief since mayor tao fired lauren armstrong back in february of 2023 at 806. >> reaction continues to come in about the death of oj simpson. his family says he died wednesday following a battle with prostate cancer. the most defining moment in oj simpson's life and fame was the murder trial in 1995, often called the trial of the century, it had lasting effect not only on the people involved, but american culture as a whole to the case was followed by millions of people across the country, and much of it started with that infamous chase in the white bronco, with television cameras following people in los angeles rushing to highway overpasses to try and see what was happening round oj run. >> i want to see oj last ride, if that's what it's going to be. >> well, i think it's important for 2024 audiences is, to remember or be be reminded of just how important this trial was to the public. i mean,

everyone tuned in, the case itself marked a change in how trials were covered with cameras in the courtroom and people watching all over the country. and it came as the sting of the acquittal of the officers in the beating of rodney king was still fresh in people's minds, including the jury in the simpson case, there had been a significant amount of racial tension and racial unrest, particularly revolving around policing and the lapd. >> rodney king, to many blacks, prove! you see what we've been saying all along? it's an unfair system weighted against african americans, especially african american males. now along comes oj. so it was ripe for the pickings. >> we, the jury in the above entitled action find the defendant or orenthal james simpson, not guilty of the crime of murder and multiple surveys at the time of the verdict found there was a vast racial divide

between black and white americans and opinion of the results. >> but more recent polls show that more black americans now believe oj was guilty compared to in the years following the actual verdict itself. >> many people new to the bay area may not know that oj simpson was born and raised in san francisco. he grew up in potrero hill, where he developed his football skills at the rec center in that neighborhood. he went on to become a football superstar at san francisco's galileo high and city college. simpson wore the number 32 during his days in san francisco, the same number he wore during his record breaking career with the buffalo bills. >> one knew oj simpson in the 70s as one of the most dynamic athletes in america, and he certainly was, you know, at the top, top of the list for the nfl. >> simpson played his final two nfl seasons with the san francisco 49ers in the late 70s. we have more coverage of oj simpson's life and death on the

berkeley. incident free san mateo bridge. hard thing is just getting on it off of 880. but once you're on it, traffic is moving over to the peninsula just fine. and we finished with the bay bridge, which looked a little bit better about ten minutes ago, but you never know. metering lights still on, still a little bit of a slow go, but things are looking up on a friday. that's a look at traffic. andre, back to you. >> all right. thanks, frank. new election polls just came out this morning. what voters say about both presidential candidates and what they think are their weak spots. >> the boy who was reported missing found in the middle of a street. how a woman working at a nearby restaurant took action. what she says kicked in that helped her save his life. and a quick reminder that you can now stream ktvu news on your smart tv. watch our live newscast and get stories on demand on your amazon fire tv, roku, apple tv or android tv. just search for the x local app and t

brain tumors. we know that we have a long way ahead of us, and we still need more support and more people helping us to help all of these kids. >> the fundraising effort stemmed from a determined father who teamed up with a leading children's brain tumor specialist in the u.s. after his son, who had a brain tumor, relapsed. >> many people turned to nasal rinses, or neti pots to clear a stuffy nose during allergy season, and now doctors are warning of their dangers. scientists say using a neti pot with regular tap water can lead to potentially dangerous brain infections. the cdc issued a first ever warning against using tap water when rinsing out your sinuses. doctors say neti pots and nasal rinsing devices are usually safe and effective when used properly. >> the proper way to use a neti pot or a nasal rinse is to use distilled water, or if you don't have access to distilled water, boil. the water for at least a

minute or three minutes. if you're at a higher altitude and let it cool down and then mix in the saline, for and the mixture that you need to rinse your nose . >> people are cautioned to use sea salt, not table salt, which can contain iodine. doctors also say you should always read the directions before using them. >> one woman is being called a hero for risking her life to save a little boy. delta harper was working at a restaurant in atlanta when she walked out to take a quick break, and she saw a boy who appeared to be lost and didn't know where he was going. he got off his scooter, stepped away from the curb, and walked right into oncoming traffic. >> those mother instincts kick in. i just jumped out there and screamed stop, stop, stop! top of my lungs. >> what would have happened if you didn't act? >> if i were to act, i think we would have lost him. i got him up on the sidewalk and he's just shaking, shaking, shaking. >> harper called police, who told her that the boy's parents had reported him missing. she says the parents quickly came over and gave her a big hug to

thank her. absolutely right place at the right time? >> absolutely. 818 let's run over to the traffic center. can i guess 880 in hayward, frank. >> yeah, that's still a big bugaboo at this hour. hi everyone. frank mallicoat in at 818, 3.5 hours since that big rig jackknife 880 southbound. but i do have some good news. both tractor trailers are upright, tow trucks are on scene, and they're hoping to get them off the highway shortly. video from earlier this morning 880 was actually closed for a good hour completely. eventually they got a couple lanes open around 6:00 this morning. by the way, the driver was okay. he apparently lost control of his truck. no other vehicle was involved. but here's the damage. traffic wise. bumper to bumper. san leandro all the way south to hayward and northbound heading towards that accident on 880 is caked with cars as well. three other fender benders happen on 880 in that traffic mess

southbound. so it is really been a giant headache for commuters that are perhaps trying to get over the peninsula to the san mateo bridge, which is free and clear right now by the way. but that's the latest. we'll have much more coming up on that 880 crash. but for now, let's say good morning to steve paulson. >> thank you frank. you got it. all right bud. all right. nice job this week, low clouds really starting to make them. there's again, you know, the weather geek in me. look at this little coastal right there. a little coastal monterey bay right there. that's enhancing the fog towards santa cruz. capitola? that little system right there, that'll do it. i wanted to go back and show you that i'm going to do this anyway. just. just stay with me here. i'll be on 30 more times. it's all right. look at all this fog. look at all that fog. what is this? june may. look it all the way down. it's a that's a big fog bank for april. and we're seeing an increase in that already 4050 on the temps. probably we already bottomed out in most locations

are in the 40s. 50s now the breeze is picking up. fairfield 18 now west southwest 24 concord south oakland west napa airport, west nevada. little outlier, but more of a westerly breeze in place from sfo hayward out to livermore. so get ready. the breeze will be a factor here. now today we get a mix of sun and clouds, low and high clouds. the system has a ways to go. friday changes. the main message is cooler onshore breeze in place. this is a dynamic low for the middle of april, and it's going to go right to the bay area and then kind of drift a little bit south towards monterey bay by sunday morning. but the rainfall projections have gone up based on i'm using the canadian model and the european model. they're both pretty over an inch. that would be really one for the books here. and not that it can't happen, but that that's pretty good for mid-april to get amounts over an inch. almost two maybe in the santa cruz mountains, if this is snow, there will be some up in the mountains. but i think this is more about rain than it is snow. but if you are going up there, today is all right, but the wind will pick up. there's already a

have actually forecast had been a little higher here we could see some two inch amounts. santa cruz mountains, maybe russian river, mount tamalpais, but it looks like a pretty good rain for all. maybe it'll go through early. look at that fog bank. i mean, what is this may gray june gloom? i mean, that's a lot of fog for this time of year, i mean, we've had some 80s inland, but those are gone now. we get some morning sun, little mix of high clouds to the north, few high clouds for us, but it's mainly fog, cooler temps for us as the breeze is picking up. 40s, 50s on the temps a couple of 60s, but the west southwest breeze are they westerly breeze is now showing itself with travis up to 24mph, and from about sfo out to livermore due west, sfo 14 now west to 20. so it's on its way, it being cooler temps and more of a breeze. the system though still has a ways to go. could be some rain or late tonight. this evening to the north. more likely it will be overnight into tomorrow. so for friday changes cooler good 10 degrees drop from many locations here. some sun here but increasing low and high clouds and the wind picks up

rain on saturday. thunderstorms are possible late saturday into sunday and some of these rainfall outlooks you like. okay, a quarter of an inch of a third of an inch. oh no more than that. look at this. ben loman 1.67 being forecast between now and sunday morning. that's a lot of rain. san rafael, san francisco, half moon bay, redwood city, fremont, even san jose to santa cruz. so i would say get ready. looks pretty good here going forward, especially from about san francisco, oakland south. not that there won't be good rain to the north, but it looks to be the focus looks to be the heavier to the south here and in the mountains some snow wind will be the bigger factor tonight into early saturday and lowering snow levels. but this is this system is going to stay pretty close to us and not go in inland. so as it goes down the coast, it takes away some of that snow. but some snow is likely late saturday sunday, but mainly cooler and windy after a sunny warm day for us and them yesterday. friday changes some morning fog and low clouds and sun in there mixed in, then slowly increasing clouds throughout the day. 5060s couple 70s san jose south but by

residents to get rid of all standing water outside your house, including emptying out those dog bowls. very targeted spraying has occurred so far, but wider efforts could take place if more of these mosquitoes actually turn up. >> we had dinner outside yesterday and we were just doing this the whole time. scratching? yes. scratching scratching. it's the worst. so we'll check for that. standing water. all right. let's see if frank mallicoat has any good news for us coming from that traffic issue on 880 i do. >> they opened up another lane. they got both trucks upright, but it's pushing four hours since that big rig went down 880 southbound in hayward. as mentioned, both tractors are up right now. well, that is very good news. and 880 is closed. was closed for an hour. eventually got two lanes open. that third lane open just a few minutes ago. so that is great news. apparently the driver lost control of that big rig. no other vehicles were involved. the driver is fine, by the way, but you can see the damage is

done. look at 880 all the way from san leandro. that's a long track all the way into hayward at highway 92. and then northbound as well. there's a little bit of traffic getting into that accident area as well, and a few fender benders while you're waiting in traffic on 880 as well. so it's been just a very difficult day, recommend staying out of that area, away from that area, if you possibly can. it may be another hour or so before all the lanes are open on 880. that's a look at traffic. let's say hello to steve paulson on a friday. >> nice job last three days, frank. thank you coach. not easy. and you did well i'm back next week too so okay. look forward to it. thank you sir. you got it. all right. our system is the leading edge of it. the eastern edge of it is increasing. the fog bank. big fog bank up and down the coast from about, the bay area south, especially central and southern california. higher clouds moving into the north. the main low. you can see that spinning. and i

can put in the what's called the jet stream here and see that little carving out, if you will, of the what we call the trough that'll swing over us tomorrow into sunday morning. so changes on the way today. cooler is the main message here. turning cloudy. the wind picks up. now there's some sun out there. it's not a total loss here. but we'll increase that cloud cover tonight. and then saturday looks like a rain day with the amounts actually trending up so far. not just a quarter to a half inch, but you're seeing some well over an inch santa cruz ben loman, look at that. almost two, same can be said for other locations pushing over an inch of rain. so here's the timeline on this. there could be some drizzle late tonight. late tonight, overnight into early saturday. but saturday morning looks like the start when the front comes through. then the upper low has to slowly work its way towards this. by saturday evening that's when maybe some thunderstorms will pick up. i would think sunday morning might be a break, but they'll still be a lot of moisture wrapping back around that low, keeping us active on sunday before it all clears out on monday and tuesday. if you're going to the mounds, go early because change is on the way for them as well. it'll start with

wind and then rain snow likely as we go into the weekend. you guys. >> plenty of us treat our pets like family members, spending thousands of dollars on veterinary bills each year. but if you're spending that money on pet insurance, you might want to think again when you join us on the nine. the reason experts say you should redirect those funds. >> black women giving birth, dying at twice the rate of their white peers. what's happening in the south bay to help protect black women and address racial disparities in maternal health
