90's inland, upper 70's low 80's right along the bay. james. all right john thank you to 8 o'clock let's get to that breaking news this morning. 3 deputies were shot and a gunman killed is a shootout in contra costa county near brentwood. it happened around well after an 11 hour standoff with a gunman. this was in the quiet community of nights and here's a map showing you where it occurred it was on green acres lane right off highway 4 and lone tree way. let's go to conference reyna harvey she's at the sheriff's office all morning giving us the very latest arena. >>yeah, we're still waiting for an update on the condition of those deputies what we know 3 of the deputies were shot, 2 of them had to be rushed to a hospital this is all during a call out for domestic violence dispute, we're going to show you that scene from yesterday in a standoff that lasted nearly all day. you can see this is on the 1700 block of green acres lane and nights 10 when a man barricaded himself inside a home with a woman now

that woman told deputies that the gunman was holding her hostage, she said that and broke her ribs and poured gasoline on her while threatening to center on fire. well the contra costa sheriff's office swat team and hostage negotiating team was also called out to that scene. the man continued to shoot at the deputy several times during the day would not give up. the woman was able to it's a now that evening the gunman came out of the house and fired the shots that members of the swat team, 3 of them were hit. deputies returned fire hitting and killing a man that 2 of the deputies were taken to the hospital. well since this was a deputy-involved shooting have multiple agencies that are all currently investigating and again the deputies that were in the hospital we're still waiting to hear an update. >>on their status for now reporting on here in contra costa county reyna harvey kron 4 news all right reena thank

you scare situation for all those involved. >>starting today, sonoma county is going to be put on the state's coronavirus watch list because the case is increasing conference will tran is live in petaluma with what that means well. >>that means bad news for over the past several weeks they've enjoyed having people inside to dine and as diners they loved it too because his was a win when they get to go back to what. >>is a new normal and they get some business but unfortunately now with the watch list in effect they will be closed for at least the next 3 weeks because the cases. >>they just didn't go up they exploded take a look at your screen we are going to give you whole bunch of numbers to digest. >>here are the numbers that facts governor of the state that they are relying on to make their decisions so back in early june there was sitting at 20 cases for every 100,000 residents that is super because the benchmark is

100 cases so they were well below that well as of this morning, they're sitting at 111 cases that is a hot spot, 42 cases just on thursday and since the pandemic started sonoma county has done a great job is trying to keep that deaths down of course every death is tragic. >>but overall the numbers are low 14 deaths and then all of a sudden on june 28 9 people died out of that 14 people altogether in sonoma county and that is why the board of supervisors in sonoma county they decided to go ahead and roll back some of those things that the restaurants, the museums that places that enjoyed people going inside that they're not being able to do that keep in mind just like i did yesterday napa county the key word is indoor. you can still go out and grab take out you can still hopefully find a restaurant where you can dine outside the patio we're talking indoor facilities where you can not

sit down and then just have a good time with your family and friends and a chance to talk to some people in sonoma county. everybody says they're on board. >>i feel bad for people here in petaluma because they're just getting back on their feet again. they're probably going to be really disappointed. they're being closed again. i'm more worried for them and the people that work for them, you know what's going to happen to them. people their jobs they're affecting in all this here. you know being closed in then they have no money. >>so she feels bad for those employees and let's face it we all do, but they're saying that it is a good move by the governor to get those cases back down to fewer than 100 cases for every 100,000 residents and by the way it's a 2 week span that the governor is measuring this as far as what's going to happen, yes. they're on a watch list, some of the things that are being bounced around possibly issuing tickets are people not wearing their masks when they

can not have social distance so lots going on in sonoma county a lot of people james darya disheartened because they thought they did such a great job keeping the numbers down one of the better counties in california and then all of a sudden over the past 5 weeks the cases just didn't go up they went up 5 100%. >>back to you i know i it's it's hard to believe and it's depressing like you said disheartening because we're all doing such a great job with the mass but you know all i mean it's not all that's the problem not the whole country california is only one of the states that's really blowing up well. >>absolutely i mean we're still relatively low compared to other states. i mean that the positivity rate that the governors watching anything above 8% meaning 8 people out of 100 tested, come down with a positive test so we're still below that. but the governor says this whole thing has started area and we've been doing this ever since it started the whole idea is to

make sure the hospitals are not overrun with coronavirus patients and the problem is in sonoma county is going up and up and up and soon facilities here won't be able to handle those cases, yeah, yeah you bring other places that have higher positivity rates. >>miami dade yesterday, 36%. the latest said one in 3 their health care expert said one of 3 people who went in to get tested had covid that's crazy. thanks a lot. well. >>california texas florida, arizona. now experiencing surges of infections. that have gone up to 30,040 50 and most recently a total of 60,000 new cases per day. we need to get our arms around that stephen we need to do something about it quickly because if we don't is a possibility. we may be seeing surgeons and other area. >>and there you see doctor fauci talking about exactly that is the nation's top infectious disease expert is

calling out a number of states california included for the surge that we're seeing in covid-19 cases and now our cities and counties could be forced to reinstate stay at home orders once again as you just saw will tran there live for us this morning kron four's gayle ong also has reaction from a local doctor. >>all of us are going in the wrong direction and so clearly we've got to scale back what we've been doing and be less open than we were. but we're not at the place where we need everybody to stay at home just yet los angeles mayor eric garcetti says the city could reinstate a stay at home and 8 of the city says more cases we asked doctor robert wachter of ucsf how the bay area measures up with the state. >>it would have to be really bad for that much worse than we are in california is bad the bay area is not quite as bad as the rest of california. california is not quite as bad as texas or arizona or florida. >>alameda county is the hot

spot in the bay area but health mandates remain in place which means outdoor dining is still allowed it's business as usual in downtown pleasanton where outdoor dining was allowed last month we were there when gabby a jelly owner of bochy be stone bars first weekend serving customers outside a boost in sales since operating take out only right now there's a good normal so. >>if we go backwards and there's going to be a lot of all you know a lot of people that our whole staff come back into work so i could go back where you just make things a lot more complicated thursday napa county scaled back on orders shutting down indoor services after seeing a rise in covid-19 cases, a jelly-like many business owners here hope there's no changes we hope not it was really really hectic during that time so hopefully everything calms down because we all are struggling with a very hard time. another thing doctor wachter pointed out. >>was that as the bay area sees capacity hospitals, many

of the patients are actually transferred from southern california. here in pleasanton gayle ong kron 4 news. >>and here's a closer look at where the numbers stand this morning statewide we have more than 302,000 infections with more than 6800 deaths in the bay area more than 30,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus with 625 people die. >>in the north bay restaurant owner is slamming the state. >>for giving him a ticket for workers not wearing masks in a place of business. >>jason dvds owns the loft wine and bar in benicia wine bar and restaurant that is they were cited by the department of alcohol beverage control this week for not following state guidelines that say everybody has to wear a mask. divita says the 2 officers came in and they caught 2 employees not wearing masks and wrote a citation the owner believes it was a little heavy-handed. >>they did provide direction.

they just simply rocha citation after interviewing my employees they told my staff they were unable. they were not allowed to record them. so the interactions so my staff was very uncomfortable with it and it was it was very intimidating i think that abc is out of line for the way that they're conducting the strike force. >>abc apparently thought that he you know when you're cited for not wearing a mask that what it means is they need to wear a mask. the restaurant owners admit that at least 4 of his 5 staff members. >>we're not wearing face coverings. >>in the east bay, a major street downtown alameda is restructured to help businesses and restaurants. >>give people social distance and operate outdoors they're re striping as you can see 4 blocks of park street between tilden way and so at news and that should be done today to allow businesses to offer outdoor dining and curbside pickup, easier for people to get around and have distance. >>be able to come and sit and
