The 100th freeway shooting in the bay area in the past year and a half. Highway patrol is looking for whoever shot at an suv last night on 880 in hayward. Alex savidge is live in hayward. Alex, there were two teenagers inside of that vehicle. Reporter yeah. There were. Good morning to all of you. Witnesses to the shooting say they saw the shooter hanging out of the window of a car on the freeway last night, firing at an suv that had two teenagers inside of it. Thankfully neither of the teens was hit by the gunfire. However, we did learn that they were struck by flying glass. Both of them had minor injuries. After the shooting, the two teens drove their suv over to the Hayward Police department to try to get help. The shooting happened at about 10 00 last night along northbound 880 near jackson street in hayward. The chp says the two teens first spotted the shooters car as they were driving on surface streets in the city of hayward. And then that same car pulled alongside them after they got on to the freeway. As they were driving northbound on the freeway, the same vehicle that they had encountered in the city streets pulled up alongside of them. They observed one of the passengers point a hand gun at them and start firing rounds at their vehicle. Reporter and investigators say they have no evidence at this point of any confrontation between the people in those two cars before the shooting. This was the second freeway shooting along 880 just this week. Early on monday morning, up the road in san leandro, a driver was shot in the head and critically injured in what the chp described as a road rage attack. Investigators here with the chp office in hayward tell us they do not believe there is a connection between the shooting early on monday morning in san leandro and the shooting that happened last night in hayward. Again, two teenagers driving in an suv had someone pull alongside them and open fire. Thankfully neither were hit by the gunfire. Thank you, alex.

Here is the thing, when i make a statement, i like to be correct. I want the facts. This event just happened. Reporter but it is what President Trump said next that set off much of the criticism that followed. What about the a ltleft that came charging at as you say the altright . Do they have any semblance of guilt . Im not putting anybody on a moral plain. Im saying you had a group on one side and a group on the other and they came at each other with clubs and it was a horrible thing to watch.

Jessie gary is joining us live with more on the growing memorial for the victims. Reporter mike, just to update you, the fire investigators have arrived on scene. Half a dozen investigators with the San Jose Fire Department will begin the task of trying to determine where in the mobile home the fire actually started and why. One neighbor says they heard an explosion shortly before or just before the flames and seeing one of the victims fall to the ground engulfed in flames. Family members were out here earlier today. They identified one of the three People Killed as 10year old linda van and her grandfather but we dont have an id on him and one other child. Lets look at the video. The fire started at 12 30 yesterday afternoon. As i said, one of the neighbors tells me they heard an explosion and then flames and then apparently the grandfather engulfed in flames fell to the ground. Crews responded in just a matter of minutes but unfortunately three lives were lost. Lets listen to the San Jose Fire Department.

They are meeting right now off to my left, coordinating their plan. They will begin working. I am told they will work until at least 1 00 p. M. Today to dry to determine where to try to determine where the fire started. A miscalculation may be to blame for the release of a suspect that later robbed and killed a man on twin peaks. Tara moriarty has more on the Computer Program that evaluates inmates examine whether they should be and whether they should be released from jail. Reporter five days after 19 yearold mims was released from jail on a gun charge, police say he killed San Francisco film scout and photographer ed french for his camera at twin peaks. Those in Law Enforcement say mims never should have been let out. Somebody has to be held accountable for making that error. Reporter the judge granted members release using what is called a Public Safety assessment. It is a score tabulated by pretrial diverse, assigning points based on criminal history. Based on his age, prior convictions and other factors, mims earned a score of six that hand him in the orange zone, okay for release with conditions. He should have received more points for incarceration in San Mateo County which would have put him in the red zone. I think the idea is to keep poor people out of jail. And i think certainly poor people should be treated fairly. This system doesnt fix that. This system puts people at risk. Reporter under the psa designed by the laura and john arnold foundation, probation is not factored into the inmates score. Misdemeanors are assigned the same point value as felonies and convicted felons scores are not impacted if they carry a firearm, just if they use it. If you commit three violent offenses and it counts the same as ten violent offenses, there is something wrong with that. Reporter frenchs family blames the judge for making the final call but. Call. I have reviewed the Public Safety assessment he replies and it takes into consideration all of the materials in my file. In the event that mr. Mims is released he should have to report initially four times a week. It is used in 29 other jurisdictions with great success. Reporter the sheriff called for a meeting next week with pretrial diverse as well as the public defender and d. A. To discuss what went wrong and how to make improvements in the future. Tara moriarty, ktvu fox 2 news. Coming up on mornings on 2 the 9, bart is considering Early Morning service an hour later. We will explain the reason behind the idea. One that would affect thousands of bart riders and drivers. We take a look at the Solar Eclipse. Were astronomers and sign tiffs and people all around the country are so excited for the big event. No artificial flavors, preservatives or colors. And an excellent source of calcium. Enjoy cheese dippers by the laughing cow. Were just five days away from the Solar Eclipse. As the path of totality will make its way from the west coast to the east coast. It is the first time that a Solar Eclipse will be seen in the United States since 1976. It has happened before. But a total Solar Eclipse over the United States, well, that doesnt happen very often. Now, 1918 was actually the last time that we had an eclipse that was total in the u. S. Where the path of totality went from the west coast all the way to the east coast. That has been 99 years. The last totally clips to touch any part of the mainland u. S. Was 1979. The last totally clips visible in Northern California was in 1889. Where were filming this was actually founded as a result of the eclipse in 1889 because it was such a big deal. A totally clips of the sun happens when the sun, the moon and the earth all line up perfectly. The moon is able to cast a shadow down on to the earth. Now, theres about a 70mile wide strip across the entire United States it starts from Portland Oregon and to charleston, south carolina. Everywhere you are in northern america, you will see a partial eclipse. For the chance to see it has people flocking to the path of totality. What is making this eclipse unusual is that its mostly rural and small town eclipse. The totally clips path which the total eclipse path goes across the country but not over any major metropolitan areas. It nicks a corner of st. Louis and over nashville, tennessee. But for the most part, it is country locations, small towns, forests, national parks, farm lands, et cetera. So that means that the eclipse in order to be visible to people, either you need to go into that eclipse zone or you need to televise it from there. So hundreds of thousands of people are planning to go into that eclipse zone. When it comes to the west coast versus the east coast, well, we win on this one. There have been studies made of the entire total ecollapse over the eclipse over the country. On the east coast, there is a big chance of thunderstorms and clouds. For most people, the best locations turn out to be Central Oregon and then idaho is where the cloud cover is likely to be least. It is a teachable moment. So this is a scale model. A lot of people think that the moon is actually right here. But the moon is actually 30 earth diameters away from the earth. And a chance for everyone to look up and see something we rarely get to see. Well, i think it is a really big deal. Anyone who has seen a total Solar Eclipse from the path of totality has said the same thing. A once in a lifetime experience. Claudine wong, ktvu fox 2 news. School districts around pennsylvania, alabama and Central Florida will not let students out during the eclipse because of potential harm that can be done to the eyes. The decision was made after consulting with the district physicians. Dont forget we will have complete coverage on monday. Our special extended coverage begins at 9 00 in the morning right here. And join us friday right here on the 9. We will be demonstrating do it your self ways to view the eclipse with items you can find around your home. A new class of freshmen on the campus of berkeley. 9,000 freshmen arrived and divided into groups of 40. Many are encouraged by the comments of the new chancellor crisp. Her plans for cal included building a sense of community and belonging amongst students and faculty and staff. And they wants to enhance the undergraduate experience and reclaim berkeleys legacy as the home of the Free Speech Movement. I feel that were going to have a free speech year at berkeley in which we are creating multiple opportunities to engage the issue of free speech. As im sure that everyone in this room knows, the protections that our constitution affords to free speech are extensive and indeed more extensive than in any other liberal industrialized democracy.
