To one north bay school strict following the arrest of a teacher. Ahead, the accusation shes facing and the response from the superintendent this morning. Plus, a deadly hitandrun in San Francisco overnight. The commute impact and investigation unfolding. This is today in the bay. Good monday morning. Thanks for starting your day with us. Im laura garcia. Im marcus washington. We want to go straight to the breaking news this morning that we have for you. Oh, we are going to weather first. Lets get a look at the forecast. Meteorologist vianey arana is tracking what we can expect. Were going to bring you an update on that news, for sure. Weatherwise, when it comes to the roads, it could get a little tricky at some point. The reason is because we do have shower activity and radar that is going to show us some of that activity. It looks like my graphics are down, so were going to get a look at some live cameras right now in downtown san jose. Notice, we do still have for the most part dry conditions, but weve got some drizzle coming down. Thats from a system that moved in late overnight and into early today. Here is a closer look in San Franciscoment. We are expecting periods of rain and then we get another system tonight. We are following breaking news out of San Francisco where the chp is investigating a deadly hitandrun that happened around 1 30 this morning when a car struck a pedestrian in the lanes of westbound interstate 80 near the 5th street offramp. Traffic was diverted and only within the past few minutes did all of the lanes finally reopen. So far, theres no vehicle description. If anyone witnessed what happened, you are asked to contact chp. Lets talk about how things are right now. Mike inouye is following that. We had everything blocked off and all sensors were red, backing up into the city. This has been a few minutes since the news broke and we have all lanes reopened. Its a very quick recovery. As far as the traffic impact, there is basically none by the time you get over from oakland. Watch the surface streets. There was a lot of activity between 5th and 4th, the 4th street onramp was impacted as well. I believe both the 5th street onramp as well as the 4th street offramp have reopened. Theres slowing on the skyway. If youre coming from the oakland side, by the time you get across into San Francisco, everything should be clear. We take a live look at the span itself, and this has been moving smoothly throughout the entire process. Its just the very tail end as you approach fremont that there will be some additional slowing. Again, the crash has cleared getting off of the bay bridge. 80 westbound is reopened into San Francisco. Thanks, mike. New this morning, an east Bay School District is under fire after a teachers alleged sexual behavior with a student. Now, parents want to know how the teacher was hired in the first place. Today in the bays kris sanchez joins us from the newsroom with the superintendents response. Reporter this is a fifth grade teacher who has been working at the same school for nine years, hired after he was tried and acquitted of child molestation at a napa school. Matthew shelton was charged with five felony counts of lewd acts with a child sometime in 2022 in the benicia School District. In 2007 he was arrested for allegedly touching two students inappropriately, an 8yearold girl and a 9yearold girl. He was acquitted. In the last few hours, the benicia unified School District superintendent released a video statement. Here is part of it. We believe having an independent review of our systems will reinforce the comprehensiveness of our practices, and it may offer additional recommendations for consideration. We will not shy away from embracing actions that will strengthen our commitment to excellence across our operations and service to students. Reporter the superintendent said that the independent review will go over the hiring and supervision of teachers and staff. It will review the districts process of how and how fast it handles complaints of impropriety, and the district will work with students and parents to make sure the parents and students are empowered to advocate for themselves should anything improper ever happen, so the district knows and they can take action. The superintendent expects the results of this independent review by the end of next week and it will be presented at the april board meeting. We will post on nbcbayarea. Com so that you can see it for yourself. Matthew shelton, the teacher in question, will be in court later today and well cover that as well. Thank you very much.

The rematch of the 2020 election ramping up in 2024, both President Biden and former President Trump making their case to voters. We all know donald trump sees a different america, an american story of resentment, revenge and retribution. Thats not me, thats not you.

Happening today, jewish students at uc berkeley are organizing a march to protest what they say is the schools failure to respond to antisemitic violence on campus. It follows recent incidents, including this one two weeks ago. Thats when a heated protest by palestinian supporters shut down a campus event, featuring a jewish speaker at the playhouse. About 200 protesters surrounded the building and broke inside. The school later released a statement condemning the incident. Well, today marks one year since the levy broke that went water rushing into pajaro in monterey county. The majority of homes flooded, displacing about 3,500 people. It later came to light that federal officials knew for decades it was at risk for failing. Emergency repairs were made on the levee, the project aimed at a more permanent solution is expected to begin later this year. Lets take a live look outside. Remember the time change, folks . Yeah, it is 5 09 in the morning right now. Vianey arana is in for kari this morning. A little drizly on my way in. It was, and thats exactly what were still seeing on radar right now. We do have some scattered activity when it comes to the sierra. Meanwhile, in the pacific, this is a second storm system that is going to make a move in starting tonight. Both seem to be on the weaker side of things when it comes to precipitation totals. Now, right now if you notice, we have scattered activity moving through san jose, parts of sacramento, parts of San Francisco, and this is going to continue kind of on and off as showers throughout the early morning. Your temperature trend for the afternoon, well start in the 50s today and eventually well climb into the low to mid60s. As far as the rain goes, eventually well get some breaks in sunshine, not only for san jose, but also for San Francisco. Weve got 50 degrees right now. Youll notice we start to get breaks in that sunshine, but we do have another storm on the way. Lets check in with mike. On my big board, the numbers are going up. Well talk about the best price in the bay that we can do right now, 4. 07 at costco. Go to the big box in sunnyvale on lawrence station. Remember, you can buy if youre using a gift card.

Good news or not so good news, it still comes to you through all your friends on gasbuddy. Com. On the roadways, a smooth flow.

Everything is moving smoothly after the crash cleared. Thank you, mike. Back to part two. Ahead on today in the bay, the newly announced sequel to a film that broke box office records, which will have fans excited. And a royal apology coming from a princess. Im just ken much needed kenergy this morning. The oscar performance that h asev good morning. It is 5 14 right now. Weve got some light rain moving through parts of the bay area right now in fremont. 52 degrees, light winds from the northnorthwest. Expect to max out in the 60s. Well talk about tonights rain chances coming up. Were looking at speed limit for the headlights southbound from the tunnel across the span. We had a pause and burst of traffic as they cleared crews from that part of the north bay. It looks like everything is getting back to normal on this route. Good morning. Very happy monday to you. Stocks fell on friday, pulled down by highflying nvidia in santa clara, which really fell. Some investors pulling some cash out, and why not . That stock is up 85 this year alone. The department of justice says boeing aircraft is under a criminal investigation after that door plug blowout on one of its 737s. Transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg spoke about boeing sunday morning on fox news. Just think about it. Its an amazing fact, a form of transportation that involves being sent through the air at nearly the speed of sound in a metal tube is the safest way to travel in america. If they want to maintain that, as we must, that means an enormous amount of rigor in dealing with boeing and any regulatory issue, and thats exactly what faa is doing. We get important Inflation Numbers tomorrow. This, after another hotter than expected jobs report friday. More than a quarter million jobs created in a month. The princess of wales, catherine, is apologizing for posting what experts say is a digitally altered photograph. It has a red x across it because we need to mark it as fake. You may recall the princess has been recovering from some kind of abdominal surgery, and sent out this picture on the british mothers day. The social post says its taken by william, the prince of wales. Catherine took full responsibility, writing, like many amateur photographers, i do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a happy mothers day. Reuters says her cardigan does not line up properly. The picture, by the way, is still up on the royals social media. You see the Associated Press announcement to journalists that this photograph should not be used, which is again why we put the red slash through it, so its not used. I cant tell. I dont know whats being hidden or what the purpose of it was. I saw it initially when it came out and i didnt closely inspect it. Right. But i think if you do closely inspect it you begin to see it. The purpose behind changing it, thats a mystery. Like fingers and stuff when they zoomed in. Right. It could be the speculation of maybe they placed the children in the picture. I mean, no one has seen her and it adds to the mystery of, like, is she going, whats going on. Exactly. This probably doesnt help. It does not help. Thank you. Happy mothers day in britain. My kids wished it to me, which i appreciate. New this morning, mario and luigi returning to the big screen for another adventure. Nintendo and illumination working on a second mario movie and its set to be released in april of 2026. The creator of mario says the new movie will expand on the world established in the first one. Well also look to build off of Box Office Success of the original, which generated 1. 4 billion. Universal is our parent company. Well, the red carpet in the rearview mirror.

Im just ken where i see love she sees a friend what will it take for her to see the man thats ryan gosling performing im just ken from the barbie movie. Dominated for best original song category, it lost to Billie Eilishs what was i made for. A big night, oppenheimer winning the allimportant best picture category Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey jr. Taking home best actor and supporting actor. Emma stone taking home best actress for poor things and davine joy randolph taking home best supporting access from the holdovers. It was nice, it started early, especially with the time change. Maybe they took that into account. They took us into account, im sure. Its all about us. Everyone who is watching this morning, youre welcome. You might be a little tired this morning with the change. We have some light rain outside, so if youre up and at it, youre definitely going to probably run into that. Not widespread downpours, but we do have a second storm expecting to make its arrival heading into tonight, so we will see what that plays out like in the second couple of hours. As far as radar, we do see some activity through parts of the sierra, that was expected out of the system. We saw a couple of showers move through. A live look in downtown san jose, and we are going to see some areas of patchy fog once the sun comes up. Well get better clearing. Well get a break from any sort of activity in general once we see the initial system pass through. Were talking less than a tenth of an inch, and then as we inch closer toward tonight and into tuesday, things will change with the arrival of this low pressure system. Thats definitely going to switch things up heading into Tuesday Morning for your commute. As we inch closer to the temperatures heading into tonight, here is a closer look at radar. I want to show you the placement of the next system. Youll notice light activity right here, and then to our north this is the system moving in tonight into tomorrows commute. And thats also going to bring some gusty winds as well through parts of the sierra, also through sacramento, pushing down through san jose, and then in through parts of the santa cruz mountains. Temperaturewise, were in the 40s and 50s to start. Morgan hill 49 degrees. Daytime highs will bump up into the upper 50s. Low to mid60s overall. San jose 64 degrees, morgan hill 62. Definitely enough to get your car just a little dirty heading into the evening hours. Tomorrow, daytime highs will start to climb, well be in the mid60s for almost all of the bay area, with 64 degrees in san jose, that includes fremont, and then 66 heading into fairfield. Lets get a check of the roads. Vianey warned about the damp roads, so keep that in mind. Everything has calmed down over the crash in oakland and San Francisco, both cleared from the grid for chp. No more slow sensors in either of those spots. You may want to tap the brakes as you pass by the activity westbound 80 around university. I think everything should be off to the shoulder. Flashing lights could be a distraction for other drivers who may be a little harder hit by that hour that we moved ahead yesterday. Were looking at damper roadways in the south bay, more of an impact. 84 still has oneway Traffic Control through niles canyon. Back to you. Thanks, mike. Women in the workforce.
