to president trump saying that if it was credible, she would have reported it years ago when it happened. in terms of the public in how we look this will be perceived by everyone watching, where does this go on all sides of this? >> claudine, it could go a her rid of ways. one is that christine blasey ford may make a great witness whose recall convinces the committee and ultimately the senate that brett kavanaugh is not worthy of being confirmed to the supreme court. on the other hand, and in fairness to judge kavanaugh, he gets to have his say as well. and he will also have his credibility tested. it could go the following ways. the testimony could occur on thursday where it's currently scheduled but we don't know whats details are yet.
7:45 am
and people may come to the conclusion that he is not worthy. if he is not worthy, it will be the next person up in terms of who is nominated. i don't think the white house would wait very long to nominate the next person. >> speaking of waiting, why now? why didn't this come out when he was at the hearings? >> this is the $64,000 question. as a matter of fact, if they had this information which apparently they did, certainly senator feinstein did, that could have been a wonderful gotcha question during the hearing. instead, essentially it comes out after the hearings when one would argue or some could argue that he could take time to set his defenses at work. the timing is very curious and the one thing by the way on both sides of the aisle from polling and other sources, we know troubles people. the timing of it. the years that went by. the timing of the letter

becoming public. that sort of thing. >> and they talked a lot about it. her wanting to stay anonymous. and now that she is not anonymous, it has slowly built up steam. i'm wondering as well, you can't talk about this there is a nomination and also the midterms coming up and the timing of this. before this came out it seemed like this inevitable thing. but now as this time frame changes and reacting to it. how does hit effect the midterms and a lot of the polling is focused on women voters and women perceiving the handling of this. >> the midterms can definitely be impacted by this. as it is, we don't know whether there is a blue wave coming. the so-called democrat sweeps in many states that would return the house to the democrats. so we don't know yet on that. but things like this particular nomination, it's so high profile that people are

8:04 am
and you've got an update from police. right, leigh? >> reporter: that is right. we are still dealing with the aftermath of the side shows. the police say they have towed 85 cars over night. still 30 more cars to go this morning. so they think the total is going to be 100 or more. so if you take a look, we're on high street. but it starts over at 42nd and interstate 880. it looks like a parking lot. that is how many cars were blocked in when police showed up to break up this side show. there is tow trucks on the other side as well. we spoke to a group of teenagers who say they weren't parents, they just got -- warrant participants in this they just caught up in it. it could cost them more than $3,000 to get their cars out. two officer were injured. police have confirmed that. we don't know the extent of their injuries and two arrests
8:05 am
were made. we do have video given to us by a teen spectator that wants to remain anonymous. this was taken at 42nd and 880. around 1:40 a.m. oakland police announce officers were dealing with large side show activity throughout east oakland. and police had shown up and shut down the side shows. that is when the roadways became jammed when police started blocking the exits. police say people participating in the side shows threw rocks and bottles at officer. now around 2:30 a.m. police started throwing cars from the now one man says he got caught in the side show on his way home. his car may be impounded. his father came out here to talk to officers. but with no luck getting his car out. >> i was coming off the freeway and cars were coming the wrong way. i got blocked in. i had tear gas thrown at me.
8:06 am
and all of my government id's are in there. so i might lose a government job. >> reporter: now again to arrests were made. we do not know the reason behind those arrests. numerous citations police are telling us. they don't have the exact number of citations until they are all counted probably not until tomorrow. they will have a full number for us. at this point it's looking like 100 or more cars are going to be towed and impounded from this area. 42nd and 880. in oakland leigh martinez ktvu fox 2 news. >> leigh, thank you. at least two people are hurt after two early morning shootings. police say this morning shortly after 2:00 the first shooting was reported at the 1600 block at 16th avenue. and the second was reported near the intersection of international boulevard and miller avenue. both victims had to be hospitalized. both are in stable condition this morning. police have is not yet named any shooting suspects and police also did not confirm the
8:07 am
shootings had any relationship to the numerous side shows reported across oakland earlier this morning. bart operations are running normally this perjury that is after passengers had to hurry away from that station while it filled with smoke. you can see in the back there how quickly that smoke was filling up. the problem was first reported just before 6:00 last night. bart said it was caused by a blown insulator on the track. passengers were allowed back into the station act 30 minutes after that smoke had cleared and no injuries were reported. large home in walnut creek is seriously damaged after a fire started on the roof. the fire was reported just after 5:30 last night. three people were inside the home when the fire got started but everyone got out safely. investigators say people had been using their fireplace and embers escaped from the spark arrester on the chimney and set

8:12 am
good morning to you. happy sunday fun day. giving you a life look at the east bay. thank you for your tweet. summer in the city. we are still enjoying summer. in fact, after today's cool down a big heatup coming your way. i have details on your sunday as well as the rest coming up. 8:12. the niners in very tough territory today. taking on a very good kansas city chiefs team at arrow head stadium. >> the niners now 1-1 after beating the lions last night. but the chiefs present all kinds of problems. especially their gun slinging, second year quarterback his name is patrick ma hone and he
8:13 am
has been on fire. joe fonzi is joining us on the phone to chat about that ball game. >> reporter: a couple things that you said right there. number one i always felt like kansas city and seattle are the two toughest outdoor venues. the fans are excited. they are right on top of you. they are as loud as they can be. yes, that is one part of it. and patrick how about ten touchdown throws already just in two games? if i can do that the math on that. he is averaging five per game. >> what do you think the niners have to do? >> well, number one, like i said, it's always a challenge when you go out on the road and if you go back to that minnesota game where they played pretty well with the exception of the turnovers, you can't have opportunities on the one yard line and fumble it away. you can't have interceptions for touchdowns. so they will have to take care of the ball and be aware of those things. and i think the one thing about
8:14 am
mahone it's a very small sample size on him. he is one of those guys where people grab a little tape on him and it will be a little tough. because they will see what he does well. >> how about ruben foster? we haven't seen him. he was suspended the first two games. he will bring a little bit of umph back to the game. >> yes. and malcolm smith is back as well. they all of a sudden have some depth and some options at line backer. the one thing they are really concerned about now, they did pretty well offensively against the lions and were able to hang on barely late in that game. but the one thing that the 49ers are very conscious of that they have to be better about this week. jimmy was sacked six times. and this week in santa clara they do their wednesday meeting availability. i asked him, you have a chance to digest that game.
8:15 am
was there one common them? they said not really. there were times when he held on to the ball too long. there were times when there was coverage sacks. there was time when the blocking went down low. they know that is something the red zone issues. you get down there and want to get six points and not have to settle for field goals. >> let's talk about the raiders at this point. so john gruden said we have to do something different. we have to change things up. they need to win. what do you think about the raiders? >> yeah. you hate to say a season is on the brink in week three. but the percentage of teams that start out 0-3 and become playoff games that is just under 3%. it's like 2.7% or something. so the raiders and they are in it tough this week as well. they are on the road. they are against the miami team that is 2-0. so like i said, you don't want to say that it's all on the line in game three. but it really kind of is if you
8:16 am
believe what the statistics say. and the raiders again everybody was fretting about derrick carr. derrick carr had a record game in terms of completion percentage for the raiders. but then think couldn't hold the broncos. the raiders led or were tied or scoreless for all but the last six seconds of that game. but it is the final score at the end that counts. >> and think of the raiders at 0-3. their fan base is ticked off because they are moving. they may not be there next year. if this team goes 0-3, we might not be seeing that many people at the coliseum. >> you are right. that is something they will wrestle with all the time any way. they have taken the loyalty of their fan base for granted with all of this las vegas stuff. and even the first game that monday night game against the rams when there some possessions that didn't go very well.
8:17 am
there was an incompletion. i remember the carr threw. and the boos were starting in the loyal black hole. so yes, i think it's fair to expect that the folks here might not have a lot of patience for a team that is a lame duck any way. >> joe fonzi, we're out of time. we have the mercedes benz sports show coming up. we're looking forward to that. >> and we'll tell you what is going on around the nfl. >> thank you for joining us on sunday. always great to talk to you, joe. >> nice talking to you guys. there it is on your screen. we have the full day of sunday football on ktvu. frank's favorite day of the week. coming up at 8:30 the mercedes benz show at 10:00 this morning. the niners taking oven the chiefs at 1:00 p.m.. and then at 11:30, catch our sports where with highlights from all of the games. only one of the bay area's big three or three big football teams is in action this
8:18 am
weekend. it was stanford playing the number 20 oregon ducks in eugene. what a game that was. san rafael has more say -- scott reese has more. but any college football fan had to like it. >> reporter: this was one of the most incredible college football games i have ever seen. stanford should have been dead in the water on multiple occasions. they found a way to force overtime and beat the ducks in the extra frame. thereby stealing one at austin and remaining undefeated. >> how many times during the game were we like this is crazy? this is crazy. >> everybody on the sidelines nerves were torn up. >> we have been here before.
8:19 am
>> reporter: bryce love even with the overtime session did not manage 100 yards on the ground. but kj did it through the air. over 300 yards passing for the second time in four games this season. doesn't get any easier for the cardinal. next week on the road against another undefeated top ten team the notre dame fighting irish. >> and it gets a little scary for cal because oregon is a little ticked off. they had that game one up 17. guess where oregon plays this week? they play cal. i'll go there on saturday nights so the bears will have a full plate of angry ducks. >> all right. well. we think they can handle it. 8:19 on the clock. let's talk about this weather that we're having. cool today but summer is over and yet summer is coming. >> yes. yes indeed. that is how we do it bay area style. summer comes to an end and we decide it will heat up. and nice weather for our beaches coming our way. it will also increase our fire danger as we know this time of year. between now and the time we get
8:20 am
some rain. before we focus in on that low cloud cover you saw there in san francisco, let's take a view of south tahoe this morning. this sent to us from coop. it's a gorgeous start to the day there. that was sunrise this morning. just soak that in for a little while. here at home we have the clouds back. although not as wide spread. and temperatures this morning a little bit cooler. we will continue our cooling trend as the trough swings through today. right behind it high pressure will strengthen. that pressure gradient between the two could kick up the winds. and it will bring gusty conditions. so with that, heightened fire danger. today is the coolest day. the warmup begins tomorrow. tuesday, wednesday, thursday time frame look to be the hottest. when our inland communities are well into the 90s. perhaps mid 90s. maybe even a few upper 90s. so get ready for that. meanwhile along the coastline, we have great weather coming. i'll detail those numbers in the extended forecast. the fire danger starts tonight. or increased fire danger.
