Saturday. This man was on board as they pulled into the bart station before they went to San Francisco. He pulled out a gun and shot a passenger numerous times before leaving just as the train doors opened. The suspect fled and we spoke to the police chief who has acknowledged that there is a lot of unanswered questions. Who is the victim or the suspect . Police dont even have a motive. At this is a pretty brazen, random act. We have a number of bart personnel assigned to patrol every couple of stations. We have a special team funded by the federal government that is responsible for safety and security. Reporter police are saying as soon as they know who the victim is they may be able to piece together whether or not he knew the gun man. They dont know whether they know each other, there is no motive and they cant even say if it is random or targeted. Lots of unanswered questions. One question i have that i dont know if the chief answered, in regards to the gun man and the victim, we know the ended at the west oakland bart station but when did they get on the train . I asked about question and he did not say anything about the transit history of the suspect or the victim but i understand the suspect was seen earlier that evening at the pittsburgh bart station. It is possible that he traveled all over the county to west oakland and whether or not there was any confrontation, we dont have any report. We know that the man without any warning suddenly opened fire and passengers tried to perform cpr but could not be saved. Very brazen indeed. We have the latest on that bart shooting, thanks for that report. The raiders are staying in oakland at least for now after the nfl owners meeting where the approved a move for the rams back to los angeles for the season. Mark davis was visibly disappointed his team was not chosen to move to southern california. Owners rejected a proposal for a joint stadium with the chargers. Davis is not committing to staying in oakland be on the 2016 season. We will say where they end up and we will be working hard to find a home, thats what were looking for so dont feel bad, we will get it right. Thank you for being here with us, they are. You hear not a loss for waiter fans but not a win either. Greater spans raiders fans. What was your reaction . My first reaction was that i was pleased that the nfl saw the potential in oakland and is giving us more time. We are very aware that the clock is ticking and we have a lot of work to do to convince mark davis that this is the permanent home. We have some things that no other city has, and incredible and dedicated fan base, we have very valuable real estate, the legacy that belongs in oakland, and thinks to the decision yesterday the team now has an extra 100 million that can only be spent on an oakland stadium so that is another weapon in our arsenal to make the case that we can get this done in oakland. How much are we talking total . This extension may be for a full year so what can the city do now that it has not already tried to do to keep the term here team here permanently . Theres a new administration, we came into city hall around the same time that they turned their sights on los angeles. We are very excited to have the opportunity to sit down, dig deep, roll up our sleeves and show the raiders that there are creative ways to utilize Development Value and get the stadium done without a direct public subsidy. The city of oakland is willing to finance Infrastructure Improvements that will be owned by the public. The raiders have put up with the extra money, 600 million on the table so that gap is really narrowing between the Development Value that we believe is available as well as potential utilizing public tools that do not put taxpayer dollars at risk but allow us to monetize payments upfront. We believe we can get to some Modest Development that adds economic vitality, a great new stadium as well as preserve at least 8000 Parking Spaces so mark davis can have the incredible tailgating experience that we know is important to him. With this decision, it is certainly another opportunity for oakland to step up. Have you had a chance to talk to him . If not when do you plan to speak with him and what would you tell him . I could hear the disappointment and obviously this is what the raiders have been working on. Mark is understandably frustrated by his history with oakland as well as an Alameda County. We have a complex environment of coownership right to governmental entities as well as a shared site with the raiders, the athletics, and the warriors and particularly the raiders and the athletics in the same facility, those to create complications. I understand his frustration. We have had a great working relationship and im excited to reach out to him as soon as the staying sting wears off a bit. I am ready to get to work, im really excited. I know waiter nation is excited. Thank you, mayor. Thank you. After 13 hours underground, a plumber who became trapped was finally rescued. The 42yearold was lifted out about 2 00 a. M. He was alert and responsive been taken to be evaluated. He had been stuck in a 15 foot trench since 12 30 in the afternoon yesterday. We want to say thank you and to the oakland fire department, police department, paramedics, i want to thank everybody. He was part of a crew installing sewer lines at a home on 23rd and 21st avenue. But they did not sure up the sides of the trench and it collapsed onto of the workers. The soil buried him up to his chest and rescuers make sure he was never in distress and his vitals stayed strong. One of those rescuers, great job dan, thanks for telling the story. You were saying a couple of engines had arrived but because you were part of the rescue squad, what did you see right away . We already had an engine, they were setting up safety lines in anticipation that we would be going inside the trench. They immediately told us to put harnesses on. We have some gentlemen buried. As we walked up we could see 10 feet down, there was a gentlemen buried up to his chest in what we could see was soft soil and pieces of plywood and other debris. Have you ever done a call like this in your career . This would be a first. One of this magnitude and type of rescue. You go down eventually into this trench . Tell us about the dissent and when you get there, any communication between you both . Fortunately the gentleman was able to speak. He was in high hopes, he was calm, so he was able to help and follow commands and assist us in some of the things we were doing. Was he nervous and scared, but when it started getting dark and the rain started coming what was the mentality . He would yell to a couple of friends that were still there and wanted to talk to him, we are reassuring him and he stayed very calm and did a great job. But you are working him you are working to get him . We were wearing what we call a public harness and a chest harness and we were lowered in from a system from a ladder if you look at the pictures we had a company lowering us down and we were working to not only stabilize him or any more crush injuries but to keep all the rescue theres safe i see that truck there, but did you have shovels in hand . We started with shovels, pockets, down and dirty work to get as much soil around him as possible while making sure the material did not collapse any further. Were there some sketchy moments . Absolutely. The soil was sandy so any movements you make have to be very deliberate. If you kick the run part a section would collapse and that is what we were avoiding, more weight to be placed on him. 13 hours, did you expected to take that long . It was a long day but the crews debate great job. Everybody worked hard and it was a joint effort between us, Alameda County, public works bringing out that unit was huge. Was it hard . There were sections of hard clay but as we are looking to the gentleman to the right, it was clay and left, and the front was sandy. The overall it should be dealt with was sandy soil and the fact that it was collapsing on to him. Shoring up the plywood and any material keeping him from being crushed to support and prevent those further collapses. That was executed perfectly. The victim survived, you guys did a great job as well as Alameda County participating on that whiskey. Thank you for all you do participating on that rescue. The National Guard has arrived to hand out clean water to the people who live there. We will explain how it got so bad it prompted a Public Health emergency. What are your powerball dreams . The news teams shared what they would do if they wanted. Tell us what you would do if you won 1 billion and we will be airing that drying life on our sister station area that drying life. The showers have been decreasing and coming up the timing of the next system the more chances as we head into your weekend. The beautiful Golden Gate Bridge on a wednesday looking fantastic as the towers reach into the sky, 746 speed tall. 4 00 on 2 we will be right back. 10 u. S. Navy sailors being held in iran have been released. This happened days after the Navy Released footage that showed iranians firing rockets near warships and other vessels. We have the latest from the pentagon. Reporter they released 10 sails detained by the countrys revolutionary guard while traveling from kuwait to buy rain bahrain. The revolutionary guard claims an apology was made for the sailors entering waters. Joe biden says there was nothing to apologize for. A video has surfaced of one of the sailors doing just that. It was a mistake and we apologize for our mistake. John kerry thanked and run and said the Islamic Republic treated the sailors well. We can imagine how a similar situation may have played out three or four years ago. I run is close to complying with a nuclear deal. The us is set to lift sanctions once it satisfies the terms of the agreement. That relief could add up to 100 billion. The day of which a man iran proves to have downsized it system is the day that changes will take place soon. Jennifer griffin. National guard has been dispatched to distribute clean water. Do you have a filter . We dont. We will get you bottled water. They have been going door to door handing out water filters and bottled water to residents. Once tapwater became contaminated after the city switched its water supply in 2014 to save money while under state financial management, emergency was declared in october after testing showed elevated levels of lead in children. They switched the water supply back but they are concerned that damage will continue to leak into the water supply for at least a while. All of a sudden the wind and rain decided to wake me up. We thought you were dreaming about rainfall. We had some breaks in the action for a not walk around the newsroom. Some rain showers to talk about, we have some breaks in the clouds but the rainfall really added up. Over 1 inch of rain. Just over half an inch for napa and oakland and you can see those numbers taper off just about 7 inches of south bay. You can see a string of storms and the closeup view. We still have clouds and rain flout rainfall and the bulk of the activity is focused in the sierras. They have a Winter Weather advisory in place and the coverage has been winding down but we have to hold onto the possibility of a popup shower right around 101, shifting the maps to the south and also to the east of san jose for the hills there, not completely dry but still some clouds as well. Lots of 50s, san jose 59 and San Francisco 56 degrees. 7 00 a. M. , partly cloudy skies, you see the clouds moving in and they will continue to filter and by 12 00. The radar here to the north and by 5 00 we bring in a chance of showers especially in the north bay developing throughout the day that will spread to the south. We have an active active storm track and transported all of these storms closer to the bay area. Thursday some showers developing, rainfall could be one 10ththree quarters of an inch. Wayne spread south friday night into saturday morning which could be a little stronger. Forecast models have been increasing the strength of the system so we could be talking about significant rainfall. In the short term we are watching this cold front, rainfall spreading to the south between 4 00 and 7 00 on thursday. This will be a snow producer and already yes. We have an advisory in place and they could be on the order of 612 inches. 8 00 a. M. Tomorrow morning, some clouds out there and we will put this into motion by 2 00, some rain chances up in the north bay and by 7 00 there is the rain line pushing to the south. If you scattered showers friday morning and then tracking another system for friday into saturday morning. Lots of 50s, the temperatures have not been the big story but lots of 50s for san jose, morgan hill, and go. Theres a lot to talk about in this forecasts, some showers developing later on thursday, a chance later on friday and saturday some rain, and were keeping an eye on that sunday system. That could be a day if you want to stay inside and watch a movie, maybe start picking out those movies for the second half of this weekend. Mark, thank you. There are lots of gadgets to help new parents but this application is a onestop shop. We will meet this creator, a woman who came up with the idea when she became a mom. 4 00 on 2 will be right back. It is time for the application of the week to calm the nerves of parents. It is called hatch baby and this week it will be featured on shark tank. We are joined with the founder and ceo. Exciting, your second company. You are a mother so you have your first child and how the does this idea develop . Partly out of personal need, i had my first child 13 years ago and when she was born i was really nervous. I brought her home from the hospital i was nervous about everything but about her weight gain. I was worried about whether she was gaining enough weight and give her enough nutrition and whether she was growing as she should. Im a parent two, im going to get on the scale and hold my baby, but you needed something more, something every day. The scales we use are not precise enough to understand how babies are growing but in this day and age it is easy to bring these products home. Really to supplement so you can get the reassurance that your baby is growing as it should. Youre bouncing your baby and get a pen and paper and you start sketching . How did it come to you . Ive always been an entrepreneur and ive always done sketches but this idea came from the fact that when i had my daughter it was a concern. All you can do is apply ace is by a scale. What we did is took something that already is in every nursery which is a changing table and made it smart. We built a scale into something that mom and dad already have. From the device it does three things. You can track feeding so put it on before you nurse, and then after and it will tell you, fed 3 ounces. Every time you see your baby is nursing and how much milk you are producing, it also ways the baby so you can tell what percentile weight it is. The first thing it does is track diapers. You can do that right from the proud. The argument maybe i just want to change a diaper, everythings cool. The reality is todays millennial parents are tracking their food, this is what they do and millennial parents want to know especially in the early months when youre not sure, and my producing enough . There are many tracking apps and 80 of parents use them. We created a better version. What about pediatricians . Thats a great question and my last company i sold to a company by called baby center owned by johnson johnson, it was a company that produced online information and many pediatricians thought, this may be too much information to give to parents and the reality is that information from the internet is wonderful. The same revolution will occur with this data and it is all individual parent traits and people will decide what works. Have an android and iphone application and it is free whether you have the product or not you can use it and we think it is a best in class pb tracking application. It is not 10. It is 2. 99 so it is now 1. 99. A link to hatch katie on www. Ktvu. Com. A link to this application. It was a passionate speech as president. Obama delivered his final state of the union. The one thing that disappointed him about his time in office. The armed group of men who have taken over federal land in oregon say they will meet with the community that is increasingly calling on them to end their siege. The growing resentment over the takeover. President. Obama makes a plea to bridge the political divide before he leaves at the end of the year. He admits that he regrets a polarizing Political Climate during his presidency and he spoke to the American People about moving forward with hope instead of fear. That is the america i know. Thats the country we love. Clear eyed, bighearted, undaunted by challenge. Optimistic that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word. Thats what makes me feel hopeful about our future. I believe in change because i believe in you, the American People and that is why i stand here as confident as i have ever been that the state of our union is strong. God bless you. God bless the United States of america. We are taking four minutes to delve deeper into the pres. s address and what we can expect in his final year. Brian, thanks for being here. So final state of the union, if you had to give him a grade on the delivery and accuracy and message, what would it be . I think it was a be b. I think the writing was good but not lofty or should is soaring or special. This is a legacy building speech and i thought there could have been a little more bang but the clip was shown, the final was good and he locked now last paragraph out of the park. They talked directly to republicans about the cause of the recession. Lets roll the tape. Foodstamp recipients did not cause the financial crisis, recklessness on wall street did. Blaming the lives of businesses and not with government programs. I thought there were some mixed messages, that being one of them, and the other one was you cannot say that the problem is that republicans and democrats are not getting along or doing much about that, then launch into criticism around it, those kinds of things were inconsistent. If they are not getting along they wont do anything. It is your job to keep working to get along and to his credit he said in the coming year hes going to work hard to do that. So we will see. He also took on terrorism. Priority number one is protecting the American People
