Next system will give us a little cool down but its expected to stay north as we go into the weekend. 60 to near 70 on the temps. Sal. Im going to stick with that bring kwet the way im thinking. Thats caused some slow traffic. Caltrans is there with it. Now you see the flashing lights. Were going to get it out of the way but traffic is going to be slow on the bridge before this incident. Its also going to be slow at the toll plaza. They had to slow those metering lights down and you can tell by just looking at it it looks kind of the same until you realize those cars arent moving very fast at all. This is a 30minute plus delay because of that stalled vehicle. All right. Lets move along and take a look at the san mateo bridge. Traffic is fine on the 101 and in san jose northbound 101 traffic is busy already as you approach the 80 to interchange. But 85 and 280 are still looking okay into that west valley. 6 02 lets go back to the desk. Happening today marijuana smokers across the country will be celebrating 4 20. Last november Recreational Marijuana was legalized of course here in california, alaska, maine, massachusetts, and nevada. It was also legalized back in washington d. C. In 2015. Several other states have also decriminalized the small amounts of marijuana in possession. The party has been a source of complaints for people in the hate ash bury neighborhood but this year some Business Owners have stepped up to make some changes. Ktvus allie rasmus is in San Francisco to explain. Allie. Reporter well pam this year there are things like fencings, Security Guards, medical personnel and portapotties about 200 of them. All the things can you buy when you put 100,000 in an event. Its still technically illegal but this year there is a group of at least some Business Owners unofficially in charge. Those Business Owners got together and they put up 100,000 to pay for clean up, sanitation, and security at the 4 20 party and because of that there are some new rules for people attending. This is the first time people will have to go through security gates. No barbecues or tents or music speakers. This years event is also strictly 18 years old and up. No children allowed and and Child Protection services will be making sure no one under age is at this event. Im a merchant on the block and this is my life up here and just wanted to make something make it better. We didnt want it to be shut down like with what they did with halloween and castro. And he explained that he thought the 4 20 festival just needed to evolved into a more organized event. There is still the ongoing issue of heavy traffic in the area. It happens every year on this date with this event. Thats not going to change. Theyre not planning at least grass of now closing any streets. San Francisco Police have set up a hot line for people who live in the area to call for quality of life concerns. To report things like public urination and other problems. Back to you, pam. Thank you for that update. 6 05. There are plenty of rumors about how 4 20 became known as marijuana day. Some say it started here in the bay area in the early 1970s. Students at san ralph ralph el high school. Well today in washington d. C. Supporters of legalized marijuana will hand out free joints to congressional staffers and reporters who work on capitol hill. Its called a protest against federal interference with states that have legalized marijuana. Voters approved the use of Recreational Marijuana in washington d. C. Back in 2014. Giving it it away for free is also legal. So the people taking part today wont be arrested. A neighborhood in the Oakland Hills remains tense this morning after an armed burglar broke into a home and shot a man in the chest. This happened about 5 30 last night on chimney rock in the secoya golf course. A woman at the scene told ktvu at the scene that her nephew was wearing headphones and didnt hear the intruder come into the house. He is in the hospital listed in stable condition. Other people in the neighborhood say their homes were also broken into yesterday and the burglar may have had accomplices. Conservative commentator. Vitaled coulter to talk on campus. They had expected 300 people to attend the event. They do plan to announce a new venue next week. Coul ter addressed the situation last night. I called their bluff and they didnt have another reason to cancel me. One of the excuses was well we need more than four weeks to prepare for a speech like this. No what youre worried about is violent protesters you want to give them about 4 minutes. If we had had adequate time to work with the Berkley College republicans to plan this event, to locate a venue, to let the police do a sort of security investigation as they do. U. C. Berkley and Campus Police were heavily criticized in february. Time is now 6 07. Two Trump Administration officials are heading to the border to see security there firsthand. The crack down on illegal immigration is a top priority. So much though he calls this a new era. Care line shiebly has the latest from washington. A new report says immigration arrests have spiked 32 under Trump Administration but his border wall could be in jeopardy. Attorney general Jeff Sessions and Homeland Security secretary head to texas and california for a closer look at the border today. Sessions focus stopping what he calls catch and release programs and building the wall. I think the border wall need to move rapidly. It will be the final affirmation that the illegality is over. Kelly will focus on Law Enforcement saying Homeland Security facilitying have been used as pawns. If lawmakers do not like the laws that we are charged to enforce, then they should have the courage and the skill to change those laws. Otherwise they should shut up and support the men and women on the front lines. Next friday those lawmakers face a deadline to pass a temporary spending bill. Congressional leaders say the money for President Trumps border wall isnt there. The immigration plan doesnt fall flat the other part which was the travel ban has been thrown out of court twice. The white house is feeling the heat to build the wall and could be facing a government shut down. In washington caroline shiebly. The Vice President is in indonesia. Vice president pence praised that countrys democracy and its moderate form of islam. The Vice President is due too visit australia and hawaii before returning to washington. In a letter to House Speaker paul ryan secretary of state tillerson certified iran is meeting the temples of the nuclear deal. He also announced an interagency review of the deal and some of his toughest yet. The deal quote fails to achieve the objective of a non nuclear iran. It really does not achieve the objective. It is another example of buying off a power who has nuclear ambitions. We buy them off if for a short period of time and someone has to deal with it later. We just dont see that thats a prudent way to be dealing with iran certainly not in the context of all of of their other disruptive activities. Under the deal iran has agreed to curb its nuclear plan. In venezuela protesters say they will take to the streets today in the biggest antigovernment demonstrations in years. Police launched tear gas at the protesters who threw rocks.

Traffic on highway four is going to be slow. We can go right to the map. Its westbound highway four east of bailey road and the traffic is now quickly backing up all the way into pitsburg.
