6:01 pm
>> 943 geneva. i got two victims. >> reporter: okay. you are listening to sound right there from the dispatch calls from that officer down call. as we're out here right now, we're seeing some officers in tactical gear take off at this point as well as an ambulance getting ready to leave the scene out here. we are told that the officer has nonlife threatening injuries. i spoke to a witness here on the ground earlier this afternoon. they told me they heard at least six shots that were fired during this entire incident out here. that was at least six. they said it could have been higher. elizabeth, allen, back to you. >> andria borba, thanks so much. we'll continue our breaking news coverage with joe vazquez. he is live outside sf general. joe? >> reporter: allen, take a look behind me. you see a podium set up here because we're expecting information at any moment and back over there is quite a big

police as there has been for the last hour or so. that's one of the san francisco police commissioners walking back there. the sfpd command staff is also on hand. the paramedics rushed the police officer and two others here to zuckerberg general hospital a short while ago. the officer is injured and did not suffer a life threatening wound. so far they are not elaborating on his condition. the two others who were also brought here were also described as wounded but again no details on their injuries beyond that. zuckerberg san francisco general hospital spokesman brent andrews said he'll come out and update us on the officer's condition and the other two people. he said the chief of the san francisco police department, bill scott, is here and is expecting to come out here in a few minutes as well and say a few words and answer a few questions. bottom line, you have a police officer here at the hospital suffering from nonlife threatening injuries. you have two others and we aren't sure of their conditions. >> joe vazquez, thanks so much.
6:03 pm
>> back live to chopper 5 here's what we know. at least three people including one police officer suffered nonlife threatening injuries. muni lines have been rerouted around the 900 block of geneva avenue. again we are awaiting a briefing from the san francisco police chief at the hospital there. we will bring it to you live as it happens. bay area cities taking on big oil, they say fossil fuel giants knowingly contribute to global warming and should be on the hook for billions of dollars in damage. it's a landmark courtroom showdown. cities of san francisco and oakland are demanding big oil pay for the consequences of climate change. kpix5's phil matier found out the oil companies are not the only ones making money from fossil fuels. phil? >> reporter: that's right. while the cities are claiming that it's big profits that are triggering global warming and rising sea levels behind us, actually people are making money right here at city hall to help pay for pensions as well off oil companies, but let's hear what city attorney
6:04 pm
dennis herrera had to say about the big oil part of it. >> it's time that the defendants pay for the profits that they made on behalf of the public for generations. >> reporter: the leader showdown that pits san francisco and oakland against some of the nation's biggest oil companies is about money, the big money that cities will need to deal with the effects of global warming. >> we estimate that we're going to spend tens of billions of dollars here in san francisco to protect against sea level rise. >> reporter: officials are already asking the state for 250 million to start repairs on the city's aging seawall. >> it's imperative that we protect this asset not just for san francisco, but for the bay and for our california economy. >> reporter: while the attorney for chevron agreed that climate change is real, they don't think that they should be the only ones who pay to fix it. >> climate change is a global issue and global matter that needs to be addressed with global solutions. >> for them to sit there and
6:05 pm
say well, it's not us i think it doesn't really pass the laugh test. the fact of the matter is they've known about this. >> reporter: but big oil aren't the only ones making big money at the expense of the environment. san francisco's own government worker pension fund has over $550 million invested in some 200 fuel-related companies. so on one hand, the city is suing big oil for the problems it's caused to the environment. at the same time the other hand is using big oil profits to help pay its workers' pensions. should the city be invested in these companies? >> that's something for the pension fund to decide. >> reporter: none of the pension board trustees we tried to contact with comment. former mayor willie brown who also served on the state's retired board, however, said san francisco isn't the only city with big oil investments. >> you usually make the decision on what makes the most money. >> reporter: and fossil fuel makes money. >> lots of money. >> reporter: isn't that hypocritical? >> well, all this stuff is hypocritical. what are you talking about,
6:06 pm
phil? you know all this stuff is hypocritical. none of it is pure. you just have to do the pest you can. >> reporter: there is a move -- best you can. >> reporter: there is a move afoot to have the city's pension foot divest or in other words, get out of the oil business, but so far the pension board hasn't found a safe place to put the money and they see oil as a hedge on inflation no matter what goes on in the courtroom. in san francisco, phil matier, kpix5. recent immigration raids in northern california have sparked a furious response from bay area leaders, but now one of the bay area's top i.c.e. agents is speaking out on the criticism. our susie steimle has his story. >> whether it's politicians or activists, we've heard a lot recently about i.c.e. in the bay area, but i.c.e. itself has remained consistently quiet usually just issuing us a statement about these stories until today when agents asked for the opportunity to tell their side of the story. if you take one thing away from
6:07 pm
this story, jerry templay hopes this is it. you see these guys arresting undocumented immigrants? they work for i.c.e. so does jerry. he says this is not what he and his agents generally do. >> our mission is the investigation of criminal activity. >> reporter: jerry works for hsi, the investigative arm of i.c.e. hsi focuses on child exploitation, human trafficking and gang arrests, not just immigration, but he says people see the name i.c.e. on their uniforms and get in their way. that's what happened at a protest in berkeley last week. >> knepp have no idea what they're walking into. it's dangerous. it's dangerous for our agents. it's dangerous for the people who show up because we are going after some of the most violent criminals in the country. >> reporter: it's a public relations nightmare in a sanctuary state where i.c.e. has become a dirty word for some communities. jerry is hoping talking to the media today will help. >> if you will change the
6:08 pm
narrative of what hsi is doing and the great public safety work that we do. >> reporter: what can you do to change the public perception that is so negative for so many people? >> i think that this is part of what we're trying to do. >> reporter: san francisco's former i.c.e. spokesperson james schwab recently stepped down saying he could no longer lie for the trump administration. jerry says he's trying to work around the politics and regain public trust. >> the trump administration is telling a very different narrative. is that a problem for you? >> i work for immigration and customs enforcement. the administration make its comments. what we're trying to do is push our mission forward. >> reporter: the enforcement side of i.c.e., not what jerry and his branch does, the enforcement side arrested 24,000 people in 2017. 84% of those arrests were
6:09 pm
criminals where people were arrested here for immigration issues. one group claims mark farrell's appointment as interim mayor of san francisco violated city and state laws. the naacp sent this letter to the d.a. part of it says, "the violation was a blatant, well publicized serial meeting among at least six board members who planned the appointment of mark farrell as mayor." the naacp claims the supervisors held the meetings in secret back in january. ervisors they eventually led to the ouster of london breed as mayor and the appointment of ferrell. the group claims the supervisors -- farrell. the group claims the supervisors violated the brown act which requires meetings of that nature to be open to the public. the group wants the d.a.'s office to investigate. so far the d.a. has not responded. now to a storm watch and check out the scene from the north bay, several roads flooded out and closed today, but it didn't stop people in
6:10 pm
western sonoma county from driving right through the water. it's been on and off showers and downpours today, but heavier rain is on the way. chief meteorologist paul deanno is tracking the storm. >> tonight and tomorrow morning the radar will get very active. we will see gusty winds and the chance of thunderstorms even overnight. the bay area is dry now, but look to the east, thunderstorms and mountain snow. the atmospheric river is developing and building to our south and a cold front is moving in from the north. we are the only dry place within 400 miles of the bay area. that changes tonight. futurecast shows the moisture coming up from the south. look at the heavy rain from big sur and south of monterey and santa cruz and capitola. that's where the heaviest rain will stay, but some of that tropical moisture work its way north. showers increase by 3 or 4 a.m., some gusty winds. now here comes the cold front from the north. i'll stop the clock on 9:00 tomorrow morning where we will see widespread downpours, gusty winds and the risk of thunderstorms.
6:11 pm
that stormy window is about 12 hours. it will start in the far north bay at 11:00 tonight. it will clear the santa clara valley at 11:00 tomorrow morning. bursts of heavy rain and gusty winds are likely as that front moves through and the thunderstorm threat is higher than it typically is with the cold front with all the tropical moisture piling in. in the sierra we're above 7,000 feet in elevation, more heavy snow expected tonight through the morning. some higher peaks may see up to 60 inches of snow. snow there. we'll have a storm here and the end of the rain has been pushed back. we'll talk about when the rain finally does move out come up. >> thanks, paul. mark zuckerberg breaking his silence, the facebook ceo gives his first tv interview about what he calls a breach of trust, how he plans to keep your data secure. >> new dashcam video from the uber self-driving car the moments before it hit and killed a woman in arizona.

6:15 pm
they made mistakes that allowed for a massive data breach. revelations have put the bay area-based company in crisis mode. kpix5's len ramirez on what facebook is promising to do to rebuild public trust. len? >> reporter: well, it does have a lot of rebuilding to too and that is part of what mark dug -- do and that is part of what mark zuckerberg is doing at this moment. he's giving his first on camera interview since the scandal broke to cnn, but we do have an excerpt from that interview where mr. zuckerberg talks about some of the tools facebook users will get in the near future to help them identify how much of their data is going out. >> when we identify apps that are doing sketchy things, we'll make sure we tell people then, too. that's definitely something that looking back on this i regret that we didn't do at the time and i think we got that wrong and we're committed to getting that right going forward. >> reporter: so mr. zuckerberg has a lot of explaining to do.
6:16 pm
in fact, he's doing it right now, but some say that his statement today and his interview now is long overdue. after being missing for days while the cambridge analytica scandal unraveled, facebook founder mark zuckerberg broke his silence saying he was spending time investigating what happened. in a statement posted to his own facebook page zuckerberg said, "we have a responsibility to protect your data and if we can't, then we don't deserve to serve you. i've been working to understand exactly what happened and how to make sure this doesn't happen again." >> a lot of people are asking themselves why now? >> reporter: antonio garcia martinez with wired magazine used to be an administering for facebook. he says the tools are apps that allowed cambridge analytica to harvest the data of 50 million facebook users to target political ads for tramp have been around for years. >> obama campaign operatives basically admitted to doing the exact same thing in 2012. you know, why now?
6:17 pm
i think one of the big stories is it's gotten to the point where the political world which, frankly, is behind the more commercial world in terms of their advertising sophistication is finally using the tools that amazon or whatever has used for years. >> reporter: zuckerberg's statement said facebook began limiting the data those apps could harvest in 2014. he also announced that he would investigate all apps that have access to large amounts of data, restrict developers' data access and make users understand apps that allow access to their data, but trading in data is a big part of facebook's business. >> i kind of depend on facebook just to gather data and information for my e commerce store as well. >> reporter: zuckerberg's statement ended with a promise. "while this specific issue involving cambridge analytica should no longer happen with new apps today, that doesn't change what happened in the past. we will learn from this experience to secure our platform further and make our community safer for everyone going forward." zuckerberg's statement today
6:18 pm
rather lengthy, but critics are already pointing out it's missing two words, i'm sorry. although zuckerberg has taken responsibility for what happened, he is not apologizing, at least not yet, to facebook users. live in san jose, len ramirez, kpix5. >> zuckerberg posted his message just as the markets were closing. you can see facebook stock is on a bit of a rebound after steep drops monday and tuesday. new at 6:00 a look at bay area reservoir levels after a wet week. they are slowly filling up from all the rain, but most of them are not even close to full. kpix5's devin fehely used sky drone 5 to put it in perspective for us. >> reporter: it's no coincidence the only reservoir in santa clara county that's so full it's currently overflowing is also the smallest. the sona reservoir at los gatos belies the nature of sill con's
6:19 pm
water supply where most of are half empty. >> we'll end this year well below normal. >> reporter: case in point, morgan hill's reservoir. despite recent rains that turned the hillsides emerald green entering this spring it's just 45% full. the 10 reservoirs in the santa clara valley water district are collectively just 1/3 full or more pessimistically put, 2/3 empty. >> we never know what's around. so that's why we encourage conservation. we really believe conservation is a way of life, the new normal. >> reporter: the silver lining the water district says is customers continue to conserve. in 2017 customers used 21% less water compared to the early years of the drought in 2013. >> this could be the first year of another five year drought. if you asked us in 2013 how we feel, we'd say our groundwater levels are good. our reservoirs are okay. we're hoping for a nice, wet year next year and then we had
6:20 pm
five really dry years. >> reporter: it's almost impossible to predict annual rainfall from one year to the next. wet winter last year has been followed by a relatively dry one, this month aside. a water district spokesperson said dry years and drought conditions will be likely in the future and that the best bet is always conservation. devin fehely, kpix5. it is increasingly getting more active on the radar. the bay area is the exception right now. that changes tonight. look at the thunderstorms north of sacramento, sierra snow beginning to fire up and the cold front has crossed through eureka. next up is redding and chico. it was a warm day today, close to 70 degrees, cloudy, wet, humid, but we were above average, san jose and redwood city 67, san francisco 60 now. satellite and radar review those you two things coming at us. one is a cold front to our north, what is more prominent,
6:21 pm
and the atmospheric river extending back south of hawaii. a lot of juice in the atmosphere, year-round about 1,000 miles to our south. every once in a while some of that gets pulled up north. this is one of those cases. that's why we have such a big flooding threat in central and southern california. we're getting a glancing blow. that said, a few evening showers, heavier rain overnight and early tomorrow. the chance of thunderstorms, breezy to windy. look at the highs tomorrow because you will get afternoon sunshine. you may be inclined to get outside. it's kind of weird. the overnight temperatures at midnight may be warmer than tomorrow afternoon. vallejo and fremont 60, san jose 61. it might be 65 at midnight and cooler in the afternoon behind that cold front, san rafael your high tomorrow 58. thunderstorms are possible as this front moves through and it will be breezy as the front approaches and crosses the bay area tomorrow morning. here's your extended forecast. tonight and tomorrow morning
