Entrance to the toll plaza without any problems. But you can see those lights right now. We do know that 2 lanes are blocked off because they have to clear the wreckage and also conduct an investigation. Only one lane is open. Your best bet if you have to go into the city, perhaps get off of that split their go towards emeryville and then make a uturn at paul street and then come back in this direction. Well, let me show you live pictures from the caltrans camera mounted near this location. You can see the wreckage. We do know that this started at 4. 30, this morning, according to the chp, it actually started not here, but it elsa with the pursuit at some point the pursuit was called off. We do know that 2 people were in the car that they were pursuing. Then those 2 people actually went against traffic and then slammed into 2 other cars. One, a van and another one gray bmw. Now we do know that it was the person in the gray bmw who died from the from the fatality from the collision of the 2 cars between the suspects car as well as the gray bmw. The person in the van, a solo occupant, that person also major injuries, not to mention the 2 suspects. We are hearing major injuries as far as when this will clear up. We dont know just yet. Understand about 20 minutes ago tow trucks had a hard time just getting to the scene to remove the cars involved. So your best bet, reyna. Im sure youre all over it. Your best bet obviously go towards emeryville. Circle back at powell street and then come back in this direction or take part back to you. All right. Well be even that breakdown the area. So. Like well just said, find out. Find another way around fact, rain has been taking a look at some of the alternate son. Your best way of trying to get past this. Yeah. Well just mention. Getting off 80 eastbound taken pow and then getting back on the a t but look at 80 right now. Were not seeing any major traffic along so that would be your best alternate, avoiding 85, 80 altogether. If you can, depending on where youre coming from. Youre also seeing the ramifications of backup of that crash is a long 24 as well. So ashley avenue you can see right as youre traveling to berkeley, its going to be another really good or out for you. So i would take ashby avenue. I would take 8. 80.

This is what will is talking about. Yeah, this was what it looked like for me right around 4. 45. This morning where it was . Yeah, you could still access the eastbound 80 lanes on the far right to get over that. Powell turn around and come back towards the bay bridge. Now its course all slowed up. But that still is probably your best route to get past the scene. Even at this hour. The yeah. Okay. So lets look at your bridges. 60 minutes. Once you get past this and to the city. But you got to get past that first 19 minutes on the san mateo bridge. Richmond, sandra fell bridge around 15 and the Golden Gate Bridge under 23 minutes. Its a bar kind of day if that is your route this morning. But again, you have 8. 88. You have avenue to berkeley to take to try to maneuver around that. And sec, tell me that its going to be there for some time. Got investigate. Theyve got to some additional tow trucks. Got to be gentle with the vehicles because theyre investigating this now that its a deadly all right. Lots of lots of impacts with that. Yeah. Okay. Lets get over to the Weather Center.

There was a vigil held last night for the family members who died. Kron 4 Sarah Stinson has the story. Hundreds of people attended this vigil.

And i am thinking about them. After a moment of silence, police chief bill scott lay down flowers for the family. Feeling lost. Cac says she witnessed the crash is still trying to process it all, but she says being at the vigil helps to other people that specifically new these individuals, friends, family, coworkers, people who worked with them is helpful for me. And just also to see the rest of the community and to see how many people came tax could be seen. Holding a woman who knew the family when and sylvia than any of the family came up and just. Kind of like lost. Like i just started, it triggered need to start crying or just like boom it made me because i could feel her emotions. As neighbors try their best to comfort each other. They also expressed fear for their own safety supervisor. Melgar says shes working to make the area safer for everyone. Lets have physical bollards in front of bus shelters the separation with the pedestrian so that we know that kids can be safe. Theres a petition going around to make the area car free supervisor melgar is not against that, but she says it would take far too long to make that happen as they would have to do. Studies. Shes trying to make sure there are those phys been confirmed with kron fours. Michael thomas in the newsroom to explain what exactly that means. Good morning, michael. A good morning, everyone. Lots to explain what lets start with saying that oakland city Officials Say that this ordinance would allow police more time to focus on actual crimes rather than false alarms. But Alarm Company say they disagree and that the change could actually lead to more crimes happening. And thats been the case in other cities. When ordinance like this were put in place. So lets go ahead and actually describe what this is. So a verified alarm system. Its a system that requires private Alarm Companies to verify that a crime is actually happening before the police are actually dispatched to that location. And its done so by video, audio or other means of confirmation, this new ordinance thats been set and is supposed to be finalized later tonight requires that all new alarm installs be verified response. Alarm systems. And it requires that all existing alarm users with non verified systems convert to a verified system. Once they have 2 or more false alarms, those backing the change say that Oakland Police reported 98 of its alarm responses were false alarms in the year 2021. To 2022. Which resulted in the agency being less available to respond to actual burglaries and emergency calls the California Alarm Association says this change punishes people that have invested in protecting themselves and property, adding that this style of policing have been tried in other areas, but were actually repealed by cities throughout the country. Is citizens complained about the rising crime rates and overall public safety. And that includes cities like san jose and 3 others here in the state of california. But oakland Officials Say the change did work in cities like las vegas. So right now the Association Says it feels that both the alarm industry officials and the public should be able to have a discussion about this change before things are finalized later tonight, we did reach out to oakland officials who are backing this up for a comment regarding the response from the actual California Alarm Association. We have not heard back as of yet. So as we get those details later today, well keep you updated live in the newsroom. Im Michael Thomas will send it back to 2. Okay, michael, thank you.
