A developing story weve been following for you as an armed suspect remains in the hospital right now after being shot and wounded by San Jose Police. It happened shortly after 4 00 yesterday afternoon on colmar drive near the east capitol expressway. Police say they were called to the scene after getting reports there was a man firing a gun in the neighborhood.

At this point, investigators have not said what led to yesterdays shooting. Katie rasmus has been at the scene all morning. Well bring her in for another live report with updates coming up at 930. In oakland, police are investigating what appears to be a shooting just outside the oakland federal building. Were working to confirm the specific details of this incident with police.

Right now, irans president and foreign minister dead after a helicopter they were on crashed into a remote area yesterday. The deaths are a shock, but the state Department Says theyre unlikely to have any effect on irans policy, such as their support for hamas and their push to produce nuclear weapons. As foxs rebecca castor reports, irans relationship with the Biden Administration is also unlikely to change. After searching for hours in the mountains, iranian soldiers made it to the crash site on monday, where a helicopter carrying iranian president ibrahim raisi and the countrys foreign minister went down. They found no survivors at this point. There is no evidence of foul play. It looks like an accident. Iranian officials will investigate the crash and while the country mourns, president raises death, analysts say there are many who will not miss him. Ebrahim raisi was considered the butcher of iran, the butcher of tehran, by iranians for his personal role in one of the greatest mass executions of political prisoners. While ruizs death is a significant loss, its not likely to change current policy inside iran, but it does raise questions about the countrys future. Its supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, who sets the policy for iran and certainly raisi was a protege and a potential successor to the supreme leader. But hes not determining the policy. Iran is known for backing militant proxy groups like hamas and hezbollah, and recently the regime has cracked down on womens rights, and theres been a massive surge in government backed executions. The us state Department Says those policies will likely continue. So were going to just trade this terrorist for the next terrorists that the that the ayatollahs have are going to install. Irans Vice President mohammad mokhber, will serve as interim president. Iranian law requires new elections be held within 50 days. In washington, rebecca castor, ktvu, fox two news. Well, today, the International Criminal courts chief prosecutor said he will seek warrants for some of the main figures in the war in gaza and he believes israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and three hamas leaders are guilty of war crimes. The Prosecutor Says he will seek arrest warrants for other leaders on both sides of this war. Legal experts say the court will have a difficult time prosecuting israeli leaders, but they say a trial could be a major embarrassment for the israeli government. The us is renewing its effort to secure a cease fire deal in gaza this weekend. White House National security adviser Jake Sullivan met with israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in jerusalem. There, they discussed israels postwar plan. The us is pushing for an agreement that would see saudi arabia and israel Work Together to implement a two state solution. President biden said hes working to end the fighting altogether, as the war between israel and hamas nears its eighth month. Whats happening in gaza and israel is heartbreaking. Its a humanitarian crisis in gaza. Thats why ive called for an immediate cease fire. Israel may be headed toward a political crisis. A member of the countrys war cabinet and a key rival of israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has threatened to quit if israel doesnt come up with a better plan for gaza. A man is expected to survive after driving off a cliff along highway one and being ejected nearly 350ft from his car. It happened around 8 a. M. Yesterday. The Sonoma County Sheriffs Office says the cars automatic crash notification system alerted 911 and gave dispatchers the location of the crash. Helicopter crews found the injured man about 300ft beneath the car. The helicopter flew the critically injured victim to a local trauma hospital to receive treatment. Well, pretty incredible video there. Glad he survived. All right steve paulson, he is up next for us this morning. Hes tracking the weather on this monday morning. That is correct. Well start with the boy temps because they are darn cold here for may 20th 49 degrees. The water temp at point reyes. Im sure bodega bay is. Unfortunately it hasnt worked in about a year, which is just its wrong. You got to fix that. Thats important point. Arena 49, San Francisco boys been between 52 and 53. Then Half Moon Bay down to monterey. Bowies mid 50s. This is really cold water. Not much left of the fog on the san mateo coast. You can see just like that disappearing. Still some hanging on on santa cruz over to santa clara valley. But most of that is disappearing a little warmer today. Clear for most fog south temps near average. A little above, especially out to the valley where theyre getting that north breeze. For the city, though, theyve been stuck in the low 60s. Ill go 65 today. The lowest 50 average 6451. So right about where you should be. 92 the record 1988 and 43 the record low way back 1899. San rosa, San Francisco, livermore, redwood city, up we go 80, 65, 80 and 76 forecast highs for santa rosa for about the last five days have been way too warm. Ill buy into it today though. Upper 70s to near 80. Same for livermore and also redwood city, so warmer inland. Its all really wind driven. Not so much high pressure. Its that northerly breeze. I think we top it out. And dont be surprised if by thursday that fog comes pouring back with the north breeze. Vacaville 70, brentwood 66. They have a north breeze yet. 10 degrees difference between vacaville and travis. One had a west wind, one had a north wind. Thatll do it every time. Mainly 50s to near 60 for many. Not much left of that fog. Looks like its gilroy, hollister, santa cruz, but disappearing. And thats probably going to be the theme for not only today, but also tomorrow. But if without that north wind, the water temps are so cold, all we need is another system to drop in here. And it will thursday night. Friday, but warmer for the next few days inland. And then it looks like another system drops in thursday friday. And that fog bank and those water temps will send in another screaming fog bank for the next couple of days though. More sunshine 6070 inland will go with some 80s tomorrow. I think with a little help we could get some mid 80s. Still looks nice wednesday then cooling and much cooler weather kicks in thursday and into the weekend. Thank you steve, we are so excited for this coming friday morning when mornings on to the night kicks off our fox local zip trips. Our first stop is concord, then east bay city has long drawn people who want to follow its beer or taco trails. We also go to see a movie at the family owned drivein there.

Calm and comfortable. I cant wait and its going to be good food. You know, thats my part of it. And its im telling you, i dont think ive ever tasted a better or seen a better collection of taco restaurants. We for sure have gone to concord just to eat. Yeah, you have, you have. Really . Yes.

As the weather gets warmer , a new cdc report is reminding us the importance of water safety. The cdc says the number of drowning deaths are on the rise. From 2020 to 2022, more than 4500 people drowned on average each year. Thats 500 more per year compared to 2019. The biggest rise has been among children. With us now is deputy fire chief dan coyle from the menlo park fire district. Those numbers, chief, dont sound very good at all. No. Good morning sal. Thanks for having me. And more importantly, thank you for putting out this this very important message, the numbers are definitely heading the wrong direction. And the cdc has a lot of recommendations that we would encourage every parent to check out and educate themselves. Chief, first of all, a lot of parents dont teach their children to swim, but there are a lot of free programs at cities. You know, a lot of cities just you can go to the local pool and theyll give you free lessons. Why dont more people take advantage of that . I cant really speak to the people that dont do that. But just to reiterate what you just said, south, reaching out to your local public pools, a lot of them have programs to teach youth how to swim, which would obviously make them safer around the water environment, as a father of two young children, that was definitely a point we made early in our in their lives was to make sure that they were able to swim and safe around the water, just from my experience, as in the Fire Department as well as my personal life, we spent a lot of time on and near swift water. So it was really important for us to make sure our kids were safe and obviously always wearing a life jacket. Chief, what is the biggest mistake people make being in the water or getting into the water, other than of course, not properly supervising your children . Well, exactly what you just said. So not not paying attention, being distracted, looking at your cell phone. And i think people really underestimate the power of moving water, be it the ocean, the waves or rivers, etc. So id say, distractions and then also underestimating as steve just pointed out in your last segment, the Ocean Temperatures are in the low 50s along our coastlines right now, that will definitely, disable anyone, even the best of swimmers, pretty quickly when it comes to rescues on these, what challenges do you face . First of all, you have to get there rather quick and how quick can you get that boat that you have in the water, we have, our boats are in in our, one of our stations, many of the Fire Departments that have, you know, maritime, you know, ports in their city or whatever have t
