>> from the bay area's local news station. you're watching the 00:00am morning news. >> morning thanks for waking up with us on little frey fry right friday junior thursday. not as good but. will take on the last day before friday. we've got john tripp is looking trees going there's just so you know. >> well, you can see james, you've got a lot it's really invading you. it that sea breeze actually pretty welcome because yesterday was such a toasty day. and today we're back to it, especially for inland areas. daytime high is going to be pushing right back

up into the 80's. >> a couple of us. i'm talking to you. can vacaville really close to 90 degrees. look outside this morning actually does show the evidence of that ocean. cool. they're slipping right into the bay itself. you see that fog you there. that's exactly what i'm talking about. keeping our bayshore city's a little bit cooler. also a little cloudy in pockets. so do watch for a few areas of low visibility. most of us are fine and most of us are actually pretty sunny radar right now is nice and clear. another dry day. unfortunately, the dry conditions are just adding up to more and more deep in drought across the day. but it does make for some comfortable days and we're in for another one of those pittsburgh 58 fairfield 60 degrees right now. a few 40's hanging on in areas like san francisco in the north bay. i'll be talking about just how hot it will get this afternoon still in the rest of your forecast. in the meantime, we've got to get the updates on traffic because we have no shortage of issues out there. rain has been doing a great job breaking it down for all of us over the place. a bridge. that's the one. yes, exactly. so westbound and eastbound. we're seeing issues

on both sides. >> but that accident, the hospital been covering all morning, 80 eastbound at the embarcadero and that backup is a long one. oh, one passover avenue. we're actually showing you a shot. this is on 6th street. you can see how backed the traffic is right here slowly moving along. the good news is they have all lanes open right now. however, you're still seeing delays and you're going to see reserve residual delays for some time. we're going to go back to the maps like to see just how far that backup goes past the 1, 1, to 80 connector on down past a silver avenue there. so again, that's not the only issues we're seeing the westbound side certainly slow for us heading to that fremont street exit a little under 23 minutes for your drive time. and if people decided they were going to go ahead and take the san mateo bridge. we're also seeing some delays along here 23 minutes. if you make it across towards the peninsula. the richmond sandra fell bridge has an escape that slow down as well. 13 minutes for your drive time as you're heading out of richmond. we have another hot spot to tell

you about. this is out here in hayward, northbound one 85 at the to 38 on ramp again. that's been closed for several hours this morning. and you're seen a residual delay pass castro valley along 2.38 so have more on that coming up. but for now, darya and james, we'll send it over to you. thanks a lot. let's get to the big story that we're covering now for the first time we're hearing from the fremont police officers and their side of what happened when mario gonzalez died in their custody. and we're also hearing that there are 5 separate investigations now into exactly what happened. >> allison barrie walker wilkens represents the officers involved identified as james fisher, eric mckinley and cameron lehigh. now the 3 officers shown in this body camera video. she did everything correctly that gonzales was a large person for the officers trying to custody and insists that the video reveals that her clients did not kill him. >> cameras reveal how hard the officers worked to tried to

calmly bring mister gonzales into a safe situation. they tried for 3 full minutes to handcuff him all standing up. they did not want to have to take him to the ground. a close examination of the video reveals that the actually have their body weight on their heels or on the there such that's really in essence they re seeing mister gonzales. >> all 3 officers are on administrative paid leave pending the outcome. all of these investigations. >> well, south bay, criminal defense attorney, though, says that the alameda police department description of gonzales. his death is a medical emergency may technically be true. but he believes that the police used excessive unreasonable and unnecessary force rough forcefully to call has that side of the story. >> south bay criminal defense attorney cody soften of the south in law firm says the alameda police departments description of 26 year-old mario gonzalez is in custody.

death as a medical emergency may be but south and says the emergency was caused by the officers involved who he unreasonable and unnecessary we had 2 or more calls for service. we have citizen calling in. >> more as a matter of concern for the individual. then a matter of public safety >> i was on southend says eric mckinley in first officer to arrive at the park on oak street the morning of april 19th initially showed restraint. but eventually lost patients with gonzalez. 911, callers reported was likely an armed, though he appeared intoxicated may have just committed a theft. these officers and the most powerful tool that they have in their possession or at their will is their ability to talk someone down verbally de-escalate, a situation. >> and these officers very quickly escalated to the

physical use of force which is absolutely unnecessary. they had time. they had distance. they had the benefit of not being in a crowd, an area where there's there would be a public safety risk wraps of people were close and they could mister gonzalez. they could see that he didn't have a weapon and all they needed to do was to give it time and to talk mister gonzalez down or trying to figure out what was going on south and has successfully settled federal civil rights cases of police misconduct. most recently with the city of palo alto and its police department. at least one officer in that case has been criminally charged south and the leaves the offices in mario gonzalez's should be prosecuted as well. but for the police actually coming to the scene. >> mister gonzalez probably would have just gone on his way and he absolutely would have been alive. still today and that's a pretty good indication that police used excessive unreasonable and unnecessary force when but for their actions, someone would still be living and no, no one

from the general public would have been injured for. now the 3 officers involved are on paid administrative leave. >> well, multiple investigations gonzalez's death are conducted. >> phillipe djegal all kron 4 news. >> well, happening today, daly city police are expected to release the names of the officers involved in that fatal shooting of roger allen that shooting happened back on april 7th near unit presser boulevard and westlake avenue. police say officers walked up to a parked pickup truck that had a damaged rear tire the driver cooperated fine with police. it was the passenger in the truck. roger allen who appeared to have a gun in his lap, though that gun turned out to be fake. police say he grabbed for it and officers at that point tried to disarm him. and during that struggle, another officer fired a shot hitting allen in the chest. allen later died at the hospital. >> and east bay oakland police say they're stepping up their efforts to reduce gun violence to oakland police captain tell the facebook live event talk

about violent crime. they say every 3 days somebody dies from a homicide in oakland. most of that is from shootings so far this year. they've been 45 so far which is nearly 3 times the number at this time last year. the captain say that it's the number of illegal guns on the streets. that's the problem. >> and the type of weaponry that were seen is unlike any time experiences. i've been here at opd has 26 years. there's a lot of machine guns high-power rifle, high capacity magazines. >> police say the city cease-fire program was working to reduce the number of murders that were happening. but then the pandemic came and it slowed the program and now the violence has gone up again. they are hoping that the violent crime operation saturday just opened last month will reduce the number of shootings. a delivery driver says that he was racially profiled and harassed in berkeley and there's cell

inland areas. you're not really going to be experiencing that cooling effect and thus antioch. just 2 degrees shy of 9088 today, or up to 85 in the meantime, oakland hayward freeman redwood city comfortably in the 70's. san francisco. a nice win. it 68 especially for mission and financial districts. tomorrow's temperatures do see a bit of a cool down. we cool down further into saturday. now here's the catch this weekend looks great right. what we do have winds picking up starting late on friday, lasting through saturday and sunday and that is going to result in a bit of a cool feel at times, but also some heightened fire danger amid such dry conditions. reyna john, thank you for that. we are showing you. what is residual delays. >> along the eastbound side there as you're heading into the bay bridge. this 6 street and the traffic is still pretty backed up there. we can come out live again as you're heading into the city, them to show you just how far back those delays go from that traffic collision. that is now clear on the eastbound side of the bridge there. all the way down past the connector, the

air passover avenue as a result of that crash. so you're going to see delays as you're traveling from the city into the east bay because that accident that is now clear heading into the city are also seeing delays as well. a little under 20 minutes to make it to that free much exit from the maze. and we're pretty backed up past emeryville at this point. also look at the san mateo bridge, 17 minutes. so that's been pretty slow delays there. more people are trying to take that bridge a new traffic collision to tell you about that is now clear at this moment. however, really bad residual delays from this one. this is out in sandra fell one. oh, one southbound at manual. t freed is parkway and not the only hot spot there that wanted. hey, we've been talking about closed east 14th on off-ramp. so it's pretty slow along to 38. we'll have more on that coming up. but for now, daryn else and it over to you. >> i can guarantee that anybody in the world will be alive sunday. so i can't guarantee it will be on a roster on sunday. >> so that goes for all of us.

>> don. don, don. wow. talk about a cliffhanger if any of us can manage to stay alive until 5 o'clock today. >> we'll actually find out which of these eligible bachelors will be the forty-niners newest quarterback. it's the most wagered up on draft pick of all time. but before you call your, kate rooney takes a look at the horse race. >> the rumor mill has been swirling like never before around the forty-niners coveted draft pick could ohio state quarterback justin fields be the guy. the 6, 3, 223 potnd gunslinger was the back to back. big 10 offensive player of the year and led the buckeyes to a national championship game fields is said to have all the tools arm strength, deep ball accuracy and mobility. his high school coach matt dickman says justin has what it takes to be an nfl star. we're going to get an outstanding person. >> that's going to be a great we know how talented he is. he can run to his left thumb. and

you know, and is right right he's really create plan actual quarterbacks. i really don't know how he does it fit with the forty-niners. another guy that has risen to the top of the list is north dakota state's trey lance. his play helped the bisons won the 2019 fcs national championship. >> the 6, 4, 224 pound signal-callers athleticism arm strength and decision-making stand out, though some have concerns about his accuracy. >> his high school coach terry bahlmann says lance's talents and maturity will lead him to success. 6, 4, to 25 runs a 4, 4, 40. it's got a cannon actual all all the physical skills are. >> are there and you're going to get a great citizen, great role model. these can be face of the franchise you want is going to be the hardest worker finally alabama's mac jones has long been in the conversation, the 6 to 217 pound qb put up huge numbers will leading the crimson tide to another national title. >> jones tout strong decision-making is excellent at reading defenses and

processing. >> the we doesn't have the strongest arm in his class. one of his high school coaches. kevin fagan has no doubts jones will excel at the next level is the mayor growing up and his work ethic. he works as hard. anybody ever work that we've got around it just competitive edge >> mark knowledge of the game along with, you know, the physical arm is very good them in row road as well as the rest of inmates ruin and popular highland hills kron 4 sports tariq island, not cape. that's highland. but what about this guy? where does that leave jimmy garoppolo. >> he still has its good looks and 50 million bucks to fall back on our resident football expert will tran is live at levi stadium will because you're an expert. your guess is better than mine. so just take a guess. >> i think jimmy g will make it through. tonight. the reason being it's hard to find a suitor for him because the q bees have already been picked up. the colts picked up carson

wentz and his bat contract. we're talking 51 million dollars for the next 2 years. that is still there and let's face it, the reason why they're even dropping a quarterback because of injuries in 64 games with the niners he's only played 31 games and the one full season that he did played area. he took them to the super bowl. one out of 4 seasons. so, you know, they always say your best ability is availability. he's not available. your best ability is your availability. >> everybody says that right. he show up to me at the very least you're at work. they're not showing up at work. so i he's not playing. he's you in need. might as well be you and me. but he has a bigger thank you. yeah, it is. but sit on the sideline cost a lot more. but of all right. so you're not gonna take a guess on which is 3 guys in the draft. you're not going to you're going to get a wager. i think

it's going to be trey lance. they will go with him. but i promise you check this out. if. >> zach wilson, what byu is not picked with number 2 and he's not locked in a number 2. if he is not pick that number to get the forty-niners will get sacked will. okay. so i think now you're going throw the no one into which we thought were done deals in thing. >> will. well, it's a guessing game with only difference is those guys spent a month and a half just yakking without knowing so why can i add my near the bottom line is they don't know either case. it. there was a guy we drafted in the 3rd round walsh really leaders place kicker. not a wrestler and they call us. we just play them joe montana ok, all these guys. i know you never know. you. >> the low dress can be wonderful. high dress can be a bus. okay. we'll stay tuned. we only have to wait another unknown 8 hours or so. thank you. will.

at this. we showed you pictures earlier from like lake oroville where the levels really low. well, here. this is lake the reservoir there in sonoma county, which we know just recently declared a drought emergency. so we took what copper for up there to see what the lake level was

like in here. you can see it's pretty lonely. 62% capacity right now. fueling a lot of the worries up in the north this is going to bet summer months. >> i mean, they look like mounds of sand with a little bit of water in between. >> not good news i know john's been following the forecast there in the weather center following the drought conditions and all that stuff in. yeah, the numbers are encouragnng, john. yeah. and it's not just lake sonoma. it's the entirety of the state. >> now our state's reservoir capacity is around 29 million acre feet as we work our way towards the end of the winter and that's wet season. we're sitting at around half of that. this is when we should be sitting the closest to that number last year was already a dry year. we were sitting at around 20 million acre feet. so that's just putting it in how very dry this year has been as we work our way into the summer months. don't be surprised if really across the entirety of california are under water restrictions as drought. only further deepens.
