good afternoon, i'm frank mallicoat. >> i'm michelle griego. developing news, a horrific scene in san francisco's lower pacific heights neighborhood this morning. two cars smashed so badly you can hardly tell them apart as a result of a high-speed crash. the collision sounded like an explosion, according to witnesses, this morning. fire and police investigators have been on the scene all morning long. the wreckage made of mostly scattered car parts. our cate caugiran has been following the story. cate, we hear it's one of the worst accidents police have ever seen. >> reporter: yes, frank. that's exactly what chief greg suhr toll us when we asked him about this accident. you can see the cars are still here. right now a mother is fighting for her life. she was inside what's left of this minivan. you can't even tell where the minivan begins or ends because the two cars are entangled into each other following this morning's crash. witnesses say the crash sounded like an explosion. >> it was like a big boom.

and all of a sudden car alarms started going off. >> i have heard car wrecks before but you could tell this was really cereals. >> reporter: tanya was walking her dog near pine and gough when the accident happened. >> this is as bad as i've seen. this is an ugly crash. >> reporter: san francisco police say a woman in a mercedes was speeding westbound on pine street just before 7 a.m. one witness said she must have been driving 80 miles per hour. not only that, she crossed over several lanes of traffic without stopping. >> the car was going so fast, they didn't have time to activate the lights or sirens to get within even a block of it before this crash happened. >> reporter: a minivan was stopped at the red light and pine and gough when the woman in the mercedes tried to pass a muni bus. that's when she hit the van from behind, so hard it flew up in the air. >> she came and she hit that bumper at that incline and it was like a jack lifted it up. >> reporter: a mother and her

two children were inside the van. one of the kids, a 16-year-old boy, died on impact. the mother and the other child were taken to the hospital with serious injuries. a catering van was also hit in the accident. the three people inside suffered neck and back injuries. now, here this is an up-close look at the aftermath of this accident. you can really just see how bad this -- the aftermath is here. we are can give you an update. the mother is suffering life- threatening injuries. the good news is the boy's 17- year-old sister is expected to survive. reporting live in san francisco, back to you. >> cate, how about the driver? do we have details about her? >> reporter: well, when i asked a witness that same question, frank, and she told me that she saw the driver get out of the car and then she put her hand on top of her head and immediately after was taken into an ambulance. but police tell me that she is in stable condition and is expected to survive. >> lots of questions for her, though. okay, cate caugiran live for us in san francisco, thank you.

a san francisco neighborhood is in shock after a father and his baby girl were killed in a house fire. kpix 5's elizabeth wenger talked to neighbors who described smoke, fire and the efforts of emergency crews to get into that burning home. >> this is a neighborhood that looks after one another. so we feel really, really sad about this. >> reporter: that's why howard simon dropped off flowers this morning on his neighbor's burned-out front stoop. a fire killed a father and his 2.5-year-old daughter this morning. the medical examiner identified them as raymond and khloe shea. >> had a lot of flame and a huge amount of smoke. and really dark billowing smoke. >> we're all in shock, total horror. everybody was just standing around the corner, and it was surreal. >> reporter: the two-alarm fire broke out around 1:30 a.m. on the 1900 block of 18th avenue near pacheco. in addition to the father and toddler, a grandfather was also

living at the moment. he is in very critical condition. a fourth person, the mother, was able to get out a back door and should be okay. firefighters say she works late and was likely the only person still awake when the fire broke out. >> everyone is hurting this morning. this is not what we are in the business of doing. we are in the business of saving lives but we know this is sometimes an outcome. >> reporter: the house was renovated and double paned windows trapped the smoke smite and they had to breakthrough a security gate. >> the firemen took so long to get in, it was difficult because of the gates outside that are strong. >> like they were doing all the right things. house was not cluttered. working smoke detectors. >> reporter: firefighters say the fire started on the ground level of this three-story home. the cause of the fire is still under investigation. in san francisco's sunset district, i'm elizabeth wenger, kpix 5. >> investigators say they don't

believe the fire was suspicious. happening right now, this hay fire in the town of winters in yolo county has caused $6 million worth of damage. the fire broke out around midnight and firefighters expect it to burn for at least a day or more. the fire is burning at hay kingdom, a hay exporting company. it's consumed about 10 acres of stored hay. three barns have been destroyed. fire crews protected the company's main processing facility. the senate just passed a measure that would prevent a government shutdown next week. but they stripped the republican-backed measure that would defund obamacare. >> deliver us from governing by crisis. >> the senate session began with a prayer before moving forward with the final voting. the temporary funding bill now goes before the house but it's not expected to pass there as is. house republicans may attach changes that would cut off funding for the affordable care act. just four more days until

the potential government shutdown. legislators have until midnight on monday to stop it or some 800,000 federal workers will be told to stay home. so how is the gridlock affecting the stock market? let's check in with kcbs radio's financial reporter jason brooks on this friday. >> reporter: frank, if there's one thing that wall street and main street hates, it's uncertainty. that's what we have with the budget deadlock in washington, d.c. that could force that government shutdown. that's led to several off days for the stock market. there's a lot at stake here. consumers in the latest university of michigan consumer sentiment survey had three times as many negative looks on government policy as they just did a couple of months ago because of this. that impacts consumer spending. of course, businesses are uncertain about the future plans. that could constrain hiring and investment plans. as a result, you're seeing stocks fall off quite a bit. once again, it's another day of selling. right now the dow is down by more than 90 points. the nasdaq is giving up 11.

the s&p is down by 9 points. this won't be getting better anytime soon until there's some resolution over the federal budget. back to you, frank. >> okay, jason brooks. thanks. the father of the suspect accused of killing a dodgers fan says his son did it in self- defense. 21-year-old michael montgomery from lodi has been charged with stabbing jonathan denver after the giants-dodgers game wednesday night. montgomery's father told the lodi news sentinel, quote, michael got jumped, denver and friends started swinging chairs and he stabbed denver. the victim was an apprentice at north coast plumbing and heating in fort bragg. those who knew him said he was a hard worker and a part of the family. his dad is a security guard at dodger stadium. many are having a difficult time wrapping their minds around what happened. >> i don't understand who could even do that over giants or dodgers, is just -- it's ridiculous. >> i was at work when i found out. it just doesn't -- i don't

believe it yet. >> just going on facebook and seeing all his pictures, it just doesn't seem real. i just feel like i'm going to see him later. >> we spoke to police chief greg suhr about the safety concerns some fans might have following the deadly incident. >> it's a game. nobody should ever go to a game. and whether they're six blocks away or 60 feet away, worry about anything whether it's 10 minutes after the game or two hours after the game. >> security was increased during last night's giants- dodgers game. a man accused of cooling a sf state student will be arraigned today. investigators say nikhom thephakaysone shot justin valdez on monday night as he got off a muni train in the ingleside district. police found an arsenal of weapons, survival gear and more than $20,000 at that suspect's home. an east bay politician is trying to keep bart workers from going on strike again. the cooling-off period ends in less than two weeks. orinda city councilman steve glazer is circulating a petition to make it against the

mount diablo just had a gust over 30 miles per hour. but you get the idea now, high pressure settling in nicely today and probably for the first part of the weekend as we head in towards sun, this system drops in out of the gulf of alaska. that will bring with it a chance of some showers late sunday night and into monday. around the state on this friday, looking good. 80s into the central valley. about 69, sunny and bright into monterey bay. about 68 degrees in yosemite and 61 in lake tahoe. lots of sunshine for us today and the better part of saturday really looking nice. and then the low clouds and fog begin to creep back in along the coastline by tomorrow evening. and then as we head into sunday we'll see some more clouds and then you could see a few showers moving in sunday night and possibly monday morning. not a big storm but could be a little bit wet especially north of the golden gate bridge. temperature-wise for today we are enjoying beautiful sunny skies and 77 degrees in san jose. about 80 in morgan hill. 75 in milpitas. east bay temperatures in the 70s and the 80s. then inside the bay, we are
