is threatening 50 structures, about 150 people have left their homes after a mandatory evacuation was called last night. keep in mind this is only a few miles from the other fire here in lake county. the rocky fire, which started almost two weeks ago is now 85% contained. hundreds of exhausted firefighters had to move tons of equipment over to cover the new fire. >> we were able to get as quickly and aggressively as possible here to mitigate the fire. the firefighters are tired from fighting the rocky fire. but that's what we're trained to do. we're utilizing efforts on the ground and air as well. >> reporter: the two fires could merge, which could be a good thing, that's because the rocky fire would act as a kind of fire break and stop the jerusalem fire from spreading. >> so we've got a lot of people who have been evacuated, some of whom have been evacuated twice as you see the cal fire air

crews coming in to play here. we're expecting an update at 7:00 and unofficially some of the firefighters tell me they do expect we'll see a larger fire once those new estimates come in. as you can see right now, the wind is really blowing and it's really spreading east. we've watched it come over this ridge here just in the last hour. >> joe, back to those fires merging together, i know that would be a good thing for firefighters if it did but the last thing i heard, it ties in with your little weather update up there is the bigger concern is they won't merge together, that this fire, the jerusalem one is actually moving in the other direction. >> right, if they merge together and the fire were to continue in the path it was going which was north by northeast, that's a good thing, now we're starting to feel some shift of wind, it might be moving a little bit southward. it's hard to know this close to the fire but that would be a major concern. obviously there's a break on the north side. nothing but wild land out here on the south and the east. >> told the winds are moving it

to the southwest. we'll look for that update from you later. the other fire we mentioned near clear lake, that rocky fire, here's the good news. it's 85% contained tonight. more than 69,000 acres have burned there, 108 square miles. 43 homes were destroyed. that fire expected to be fully surrounded by the end of the week. and this man has been arrested for starting a fire in lower lake. juan silva is booked on arson charges. the fire he's accused of setting is not related to the rocky or the jerusalem fires but the department of forestry says silva is the fifth person arrested on arson charge in the past two weeks. a car fire sparked a grass fire this afternoon in south bay from chopper 5. you can see the burned out car alongside the highway, highway 101 near north mckey road. you can see how close the flames came to some homes. the fire forced highway patrol to close the southbound lanes for a short time. in the end the fire was contained and

no homes were damaged. another fire this afternoon in san jose sent up a huge plume of thick black smoke, this one at a maintenance yard on mayberry road where pallets, rubber, and garbage caught fire. chopper 5 was overhead when firefighters got the flames under control in about 15 minutes. the developing story right now in san jose. police are swarming an area at east ridge mall. they're looking for two suspects in an attempted carjacking that ended in gunfire. we've seen officers all over going through a field. they brought out k-9s to help with the search. we're told two suspects tried to take a car near the mall at about 1:00 this afternoon. the victim managed to fight them off and says one of the suspects started shooting. nobody was hit by that gunfire but police say the two might have tried to car jack another vehicle before the officers got there. new at 5:00, this mural was a fixture in oakland for almost 30 years. then somebody broke out the paint brushes again.

protects artists, even if their paintings are on private property. she says the building owner should have called font and given him 90 days to remove the painting. >> they have the right to paint their own walls but this is a piece of public art. >> reporter: representatives of the former building owners say apparently vandals repeatedly tagged the wall so the car dealership decided to paint over the whole thing. >> i'm not doing this for the money. i'm doing this for the principle. >> reporter: he says if he wins the lawsuit he'll donate the money to a nonprofit. da lin, kpix 5. >> we contacted the nissan dealership but the owner and general manager declined to comment. a dozen kids in a summer camp were left bloodied and bruised after a multi-car pileup in the east bay. a bus rear ended a car and set off a chain reaction crash.

donald trump's campaign is in damage control mode after his

controversial comments about women. in typical trump fashion, he's giving no apologizes. today the billionaire businessman refused to back off comments that he made that some say were insulting the women. trump said the comment he made about blood coming out of megyn kelly's wherever was fueled by the pres. >> who would say such a thing? if i would have said that, it would have been inappropriate. >> over the weekend trump's long time political advisor roger stone resigned saying provocative media fights have overwhelmed your core message. i no longer can remain in your campaign. trump remains at the top of the latest polls. a big score today for presidential candidate bernie sanders. national nurses united endorsed sanders during this brunch in oakland. it's the first labor group to throw support by the vermont senator.

sanders has drawn some of the biggest crowds of any candidate. a big change coming in the way you buy your next cell phone. gone will be the notion of the very latest phones at deeply discounted prices. julie watts is here with what's driving the change. >> verizon is jumping on this no-contract bandwagon. almost everybody else has done it. its new plans come with unlimited text and talk and simplify pricing with just three things to pay for. but one of those things is a new phone and you'll now have to pay full price. >> how much did you pay for your cell phone? >> probably $200. >> $290 out of pocket. >> i'm certainly not going to pay hundreds of dollars. >> reporter: saying goodbye to the $200 smart phone is bittersweet for many. come thursday, the option to buy a $200 galaxy or iphone will disappear. customers will now

have to pay full price or divide it monthly over two years. >> now you know exactly what you're paying for service every month and device. >> reporter: or divided monthly over two years. in many ways the had change is good. for one thing, verizon's new pricing plan is simplified. unlimitted talk and text with three things to pay for. data, a monthly access fee, and of course the full cost of the phone itself. but dawson says you're likely paying the full price before, you just didn't realize it, because it was incorporated in to your monthly service fees. so in some cases by getting rid of subsidies, you may actually save money. >> you've actually paid off your device or if you bring a device with you, you can pay a lot less per month. >> reporter: buyer beware, no contract doesn't necessarily mean you can easily switch carriers. different phone carriers use different technology and may require you buy a phone from them. >> i'm probably going to stick

with my phone for a long time. >> at&t was the latest among the four major carriers, or is the last among the four major carriers to still offer those phones with a contract, however, you can no longer get them through third parties like apple. you have to actually go to the at&t store. generally speaking a no-contract option is a better deal if you use a lot of data. generally speaking, you're still going to pay for it at least in this case it's clear what you're paying for. the stock market surged today thanks to a rebound in oil prices and a big acquisition deal for warren buffett. the dow broke its seven-day losing streak. nasdaq finished more than 58. s&p 500 was up more than 26 and a half. it's not the ideal getaway car but a determined driver and a stolen box truck made a serious effort to outrun police

on an l.a. freeway. the truck took off on i-5 near santa clarita this morning. it weaves in and out of traffic and up to 80 miles per hour coming dangerously close to cars. at one point the truck drives along the shoulder. eventually it runs in to heavy l.a. traffic. the driver swerves on to the dirt shoulder and crashes in to a concrete barrier. at that point he jumps out and runs across lanes. the driver tries to escape through a neighborhood but runs out of steam. he sits down behind a car and takes off his hat, likely to throw off officers. that didn't work. he lay z s down with -- he lays down with his hands up as police mover -- move in and take him in to custody. no one can interpret on to market in san francisco at any of these intersections between third and eighth street. the idea of course, make market street safer. the city wants to reduce the number of collisions between cars and pedestrians and

bicyclists. delivery trucks, taxis, shuttles will be the only vehicles allowed on that part of market. back to our live pictures of the jerusalem fire that is burning in lake county. this started yesterday near middletown but it exploded in size overnight. it's now burned 5,000 acres and has probably grown bigger than that. we're expecting an update from cal fire at 7:00. no containment in sight. 150 people have been evacuated as we watch the aerial assault up in lake county. the jerusalem fire, another big fire retardant drop coming from cal fire. we were talking about the winds on this thing earlier. >> the peak wind of the day is right around 4:00, 5:00. the wind is going to be an issue for the next couple days. we had the strong onshore flow coming and the wind is going to be prevalent from now through thursday. so it's going to be tough going for firefighters up

there who are undoubtedly fatigued. now you're dealing with the wind peaking from 20 to 25 miles per hour. not good. the weather is not going to be a help. >> we're getting a good idea from these pictures how rough the terrain is. we talk about that it's bad terrain. that gives you a good idea exactly how rough it is because they're hitting this thing from everything from the air. >> we're getting to the point where a fire will create its own weather as well. that said, mother nature's air conditioning does help cool temperatures. we will see that for the next couple days. winds on the increase, temperatures on the decrease. livermore, 76 degrees. san francisco, a cloudy 64 degrees. san bruno, 69. tonight we're down around 60. fremont, exactly 60 degrees. concord, 62. napa, 57. a big change over the past couple days. we're now seeing that wind getting cranked up. here is the source of that. big low pressure area spinning off. it's drawing up a southwest wind. not all onshore flows are

created equal. it's a southwest wind which historically is the coolest and cloudiest flow of air for us. we're seeing that today. we'll see it again tomorrow and wednesday and thursday. cooler, cloudier because that low will sit right off the coastline feeding in that southwest wind. then we turn on a dime and on friday that low high tails it out of here. big ridge of high pressure. virtually eliminating the onshore flow. we'll go from cool er and cloudier to much warmer or hotter and also marketedly sunnier. if you like it hotter, the weekend is going to be a significant change. widespread cloud and fog cover for tomorrow morning. cool side the next couple days but much warmer or hotter beginning friday. we're 70 degrees above average. fremont, 76. 60s right along the beach. pittsburgh, 82. vallejo, 75, a cloudy start for you.

berkeley, 70. san rafael, 77 degrees. low to mid 80s in lake county. look at the change on friday. we go from the 80s to 90s inland, close to 80 near the bay and the hottest days will likely be saturday and sunday, close to 100 degrees away from the water. that's your kpix 5 forecast. you could say disney stuck its foot in its mouse. the tweet that has disney apologizing to an entire apologizing to an entire country.,,,, life's the food that brings us together.
