Were here right now on robin hood and knottingham drive. The house is a little further down to the left. Thats where the standoff happened earlier this morning. We saw a man get into the back of a cop car with handcuffs just before 5 30 this morning. The Sheriffs Office ordered a shelter in place for the area earlier and did advise residents to kept their doors and windows locked. We spoke to one man who was out for a morning walk with his dog and he was shocked to see what was going on. Very surprising. Its not what this neighborhood is usually like. Its usually a very quiet neighborhood especially this time of the morning. Lots of the neighbors know each other. Its a good place. Reporter right now only one man is in custody relating to this standoff. But again, the Contra Costa CountySheriffs Office needs to confirm these details.

So we are about a block away from where this happened and there are still a few police cars. The suspect is still in the area. But he is handcuffed and police are deeming this a safe area to be in now. Well have the latest details as soon as we learn them. In el sobrante, jackie ward, kpix 5. Right now, firefighters are keeping an eye on any hot spots from the fire in san jose. It started in a building on south white road around 3 a. M. We are told the building used to be an Oreilly Auto Parts store but the building was currently abandoned. On our arrival [ indiscernible ] was well involved. So immediately went to defensive operation. We were able to suppress the fire. No one was hurt. He cause is under investigation. On the political front, today Deputy Attorney general Rod Rosenstein briefed the full senate about President Trumps decision to fire james comey as fbi director last week. That comes just a day after the president interviewed four candidates for the position. Rosenstein has also named former fbi director Robert Mueller as special counsel to lead the Justice Departments investigation into alleged russian meddling in the 2016 election. Think it was a very solid choice. Its good that we now have a focal point of somebody that we all trust. Rosenstein issued a statement saying in part, the Public Interest requires me to place this investigation under the authority of a person who exercises a degree of independence from the normal chain of command. This morning, President Trump took to twitter responding to the news. He wrote, quote, with all of the illegal acts that took place in the Clinton Campaign and obama administration, there was never a special counsel appointed. And in another tweet, this is a single greatest witch hunt of a politician in American History. Republican and Democratic Senators renewed their drive to make banking easier for marijuanabased businesses by introducing some new legislation.

Today cal osha set to announce regulations that would boost Safety Standards at local refineries. Kpix 5s anne makovec is live in richmond where refinery fire sparked calls for change. Reporter yeah. In places like the chevron refinery here in richmond contains a lot of volatile materials so you can imagine that refineries create anxiety in nearby communities and we have seen this on several occasions over recent years. There has been pressure on the state to crack down on the industry since 2012 when this explosion blanketed much of the east bay with a cloud of toxic smoke. It came from the chevron refinery here in richmond an estimated 15,000 people went to nearby hospitals after inhaling it. The city sued chevron claiming the refinery willfully disregarded Public Safety as a matter of corporate policy. Decisions that we believe created and set up what happened in august are decisions made in board rooms and those decisions deal with how much money are you going to budgeted for safety . Another more recent issue for the refinery a flaring incident in december that led to complaints about a rotten egg smell spanning the bay. The bay area air Quality Management district issued four violations, two for excess levels of Hydrogen Sulfide and two for creating a public nuisance. And you may remember earlier this month, issues at the valero refinery in benicia, a fiery flare and plumes of black smoke forced evacuations of two Elementary Schools and a nearby industrial park. The refinery says it was flaring due to a power outage. The rules being announced today were called for after pressure from the governor and and the u. S. Chemical safety board.

But the marin municipal Water District initially planned a 14 increase over two years. Community backlash to that proposal changed the boards plans with water officials now deciding to give it more thought before approving the second rate hike. San jose city leaders just rejected a policy that would have weakened tenant protections for Mobile Home Park closures.
