during that escape. authorities are searching for ricky dubois that is him on the left and 43-year-old donnie russell row on the right. a prison bus was taken them to a work detail when they overpowered the guards and took their guns and shot and killed them. they fled in a green honda civic which they had stolen. row was serving life in prison forearmed robbery. dubois was serving a 19-year sentence for similar crimes. there's a new report on how much traffic in san francisco is from ride sharing companies. a county by the transportation authority say lyft and uber accounts for 130,000 trips on an average day in san francisco. that is 12 times the number of trips by taxi. 15% of all vehicle traffic. the trips that start and end in san francisco. public transit accounts for all 1% of vehicle trips.

they also have the most transit options much as we digest the news, sal castaneda has been looking into the impact ride sharing services such as uber and lyft are having on city streets. >> yeah. more than anecdotal. a lot of people know it. but we want out and talked to city officials. and now that everyone pretty much acknowledges that this is an issue, we get the city's response and what could be coming next. that will air tomorrow right here on mornings on 2. >> uh-huh. >> let's take a look at highway 24 westbound as you're driving through lafayette. you can see traffic is going to be slow approaching the lafayette b.a.r.t. station. it is slowing again approaching the tunnel. nothing unusual but crowding there as you drive towards the oakland area. bay bridge, better shot now, backed up to the maze. the metering lights are on. about a 25-minute de play. once you make it on to the bridge, it looks okay. a little crowded but not bad.

here is a look at interstate 880 in oakland. it is backed up north of san leandro or near the san leandro and oakland boundary line and continues slow to downtown oakland. 580 has been slow near the dublin interchange and so has 680. if you're driving into san jose, all of the freeways there will be slow. cal train has major delays coming out of gilroy because a train hit a person in gilroy. if you take cal train, you should collect in with them and see how long it will delay you or if you can think of an alternate way of transport this morning. 7:48. let's bring steve paulson back. >> sal, thank you, sir. mostly clear skies. a little bit of fog floating around southern marin county and some on the coast. but that is really about it. trying to make the spill over to the golden gate. but it has been held in check. i expect it to burn back.

water temps are pretty cold. i think the coast will have to deal with fog. inland, bayside, i think the fog will be trapped under a dome of high pressure as it builds in. today is the in-between day. the cloud deck towards santa cruz and monterey. a major blow. this has spawned many tornadoes throughout much of nebraska. big time hail reports. it will only be a big impact for many across the northern plains today as it finally comes out of the inner mountain region. we had a lot of 40s this morning. we are slowly warming up. still cool for this time. expect to see 60s by the 8:00 hour as temperatures warm up. 51 san ramon. concord pavilion, 53 degrees. now we're getting the 50s. except for the patchy fog favoring a few areas on the coast. everything is pointing to high pressure kicking in. once this low moves out. as it does, the door will open up in the desert southwest and the high will build in. not so much today or tomorrow

but by thursday, friday and then on the weekend. 70s near the coast. but 100s for some inland. it will be really hot out to the valley, sacramento and san joaquin valley. 60s to low 80s for some. temperatures still a few degrees below average for this time of year. inland coast and bay are near average to slightly above believe it or not. we have been down below average for the longest time. when you're 20 degrees below average in june, you have to make it up somewhere. we will make it up by this weekend as inland temps will be near 100 degrees. >> hundred. >> hundred. hundred out there in the back 40. >> man, oh, man. >> steve you and i always get a lot of sleep, ten, 12 hours of sleep. >> wake up, dave. >> it is a joke. it may be costing you money. in our 8:00 hour, how getting more sleep could mean more money for you. plus, new developments were north korea about an american student jailed over there.

60s and 70s low 80s. sal, 8:01, a couple of issues with cal train. >> yeah. the commute is starting to get later and later as we get into summer. people hit the road later just a little bit. at the macarthur maze, you will see that traffic will be a little slow approaching the 580/80 interchange. you can see that traffic is getting slow at the bay bridge toll plaza. when you get to the bay bridge toll plaza, you still have a slow down. it will last for a bit. i always look at, and you can too, you can look at this ramp that i'm pointing out. once that ramp is crowded like this, that means you have a little ways to go before the commute unwinds. once you see that ramp get better, that is the first thing that gets better. then the rest of the commute follows. we have a little bit of time on the bay bridge approach. slowing past the coliseum. slowing all the way into

downtown oakland. still have quite a commute on 580. it is a late one. 580 getting into dublin. and then 680 driving pleasanton. and between hayward and fremont, slow traffic as well. plenty of slow traffic all over the bay. 8:03. let's go back to the desk. >> thank you, sal. the warriors are nba champs for the second time in three seasons. seasons. >> durant from way outside. drills a three baller. >> the warriors won 129-120 to win four games to one. they went on a phenomenal 21-2 run. kevin durant put up 29 points. steph curry put up 38 points. eight different warriors were not o the score board. >> 55 seconds left and i went

over to half court line. i bent down and i was like is this really happening. and andre was like keep playing. we have 50 seconds left. and i said boy, we're about to win a title. >> kevin durrant apartment was named the finals most valuable player. after the game he celebrated with the teammates in the locker room in the champagne shower. >> so nice to have ktvu's sports anchor scott reese joining us. you were at the game. things were in doubt and then at the end it was like this is great. >> i just came from the post game. >> it was phenomenal. the atmosphere was off the charts. trepidation when they were down after the 1st quarter. they went on the run and the general feeling inside of the arena was we've got this. it was so loud and energetic. and every time that they needed a bucket, they got one. usually it was durant. but a true team effort.

>> so much focus going into kevin durant going into the post season. i saw a team effort. >> right. >> i saw the bench come off. iguodala scored a ton of points. that was a team effort. >> 27 assists. they didn't shoot all that well. cleveland shot better. lights out. but the warriors got to the free throw line and the bench points were huge. and patrick mccaw played really well. team effort. that's how they roll. they play as one. >> hustle right there. >> how about that outlet pass? there are few guys in the league that can make that. >> curry didn't shoot great but played well. everybody did their thing and this was the result. >> steve kerr was there to see it happen. >> steve kerr a great story too. props to mike brown. it was mike for him to

acknowledge mike brown on the podium after that game. he led him to the 11-0 in the playoffs. and then steve kerr did the rest. he won five titles as a player. all the man does is win. >> cameras caught him with tears in his eyes. why do you think such emotion behind this title? >> well, part of it is probably physical. >> what he has been through. >> you know he isn't 100%. to be able to come back. we looked at the landscape and said steve kerr is not coming back. i think so much emotion and effort to get back to the bench and be able to do what he does. and then to once again take back the reigns, it all worked out as well as it could. >> is it too soon to think about next season. >> can i sleep first. >> a couple of free agents. what does it look like. >> this will be flushed out

more in the coming days. the warriors is set up for the future. you have to take care of curry. he will get a max contract. you have to convince durant to stick around, which i don't think will be hard after this year. durant may have to take a couple million less than the max for the early part of his contract. i think he will do that. if he does, they will be able to keep the group together. they will be able to keep iguodala and most of the bench. it has been phenomenal what they have been able to do. >> do you know who agrees with you? lebron james. he said they're lined up. >> yeah. >> most of them are in their 20s. >> yeah. >> he said a few championships down the road. >> sure. >> unless other teams do something to come together. >> to doubt. >> thank you, scott. >> get some sleep. oakland is planning one of the biggest celebrations every. a victory parade should be as big as fun as the one back in

of major crashes. mike and gasia, the morning commute has definitely filled in as you're driving towards the macarthur maze, getting out to the maze and driving to the bay bridge toll plaza. you will see the traffic is backed up. we recall it is about a 20 to 25-minute delay. no major issues getting on to the bridge. 880 is slow as it normally is past the coliseum. ifs unusual for 580 to be in play so late. but we've had a couple of earlier problems that kind of caused that traffic. 680 is also slow as you drive from the pleasanton down to fremont. the south bay commute, there's a lot of slow traffic there on 280, 85 and 101. what started out as a light commute is not light anymore. southbound 101 in redwood city at whipple is reported as an

one system moves out. there it is. that was the one that gave us the thunderstorms, the snow up in the sierra. really cool temps. the wind. watch how this will trigger big- time thunderstorms. it comes out of the inner mountain region already in wyoming and parts of nebraska. numerous reports of hail and funnel clouds as well, nebraska and colorado. 51 san francisco. that is very cold. fog will be rearing to go. 50s and 60s. a few low 60s already. we have been really cool for a while. this will one of those transition days where we start to see temperatures near average. nice spring day. by friday, we will be in the 90s for many and 100s for those away from the coast for the weekend. we go have a cool pattern to -- we go from a cool pattern to a very warm one.

for most it will be in the 60s today. 70s. low, low 80s for some. mainly the 70s. tomorrow we warm it up. most locations near average. then everybody goes above by friday and into the weekend. >> pleasant for now. >> very pleasant. >> father's day. >> you may not say that saturday. >> let's talk just for a minute about thursday morning. >> thursday will be fine. >> in oakland. >> you will be fine. >> they might be out there for four hours in the sun. >> it will be warm by the end. i guarantee it. it is in oakland, not antioch. that makes a big difference. >> it starts at 10:00 in the morning. >> it will be nice, overworked and stressed out. that is the message from 911 dispatchers in san francisco. what could be putting the public in danger.

>> the time is 8:24. 911 dispatchers in san francisco say they are overworked and stressed out because of a staffing crisis. dispatchers say the conditions are so bad that it puts public safety at risk. many dispatchers say they work 16-hour shifts. some of the reasons that dispatchers are getting lured to other areas where the pay is better and the work is less vestful. the call center is supposed to answer 90% of the calls within ten sendal. right now only 75% of the calls are answered within that time period. >> extremely short staffed. we have been for the past several years. >> call volume went up 37% in

the past few years. and we had an increase in attrition. >> workers are now ago the board of supervisors of san francisco for help. in the meantime, new employees are in training but training takes about a year to complete. happening today, patients of students in the fremont union high school district are holding a news conference to say the district is not doing enough to prevent discrimination against african- american students. a parent filed a lawsuit against the district that followed revelations that there was a kill list posted on social media and they intended to shoot and kill all avenue miles per hour students at the school. investigators say the woman accused in the killing of a 74- year-old woman in cupertino may have suffered from mental issues. friends discovered the body on hancock drive saturday morning. but the killing likely happened the day before. investigators later food the suspect as 35-year-old suzanne hernandez. one man tells us he actually

the santa cruz coast. that's why we threw in patchy fog. my computer is loading if you're wondering why i'm still talking. it is loading and loading and loading. i guess it's -- hold on. there it is. okay. you didn't wait long. >> i know those problems. >> thank you, sal. >> i use the same computer as you do. >> yes. sometimes it crunches. 60s and 70s and near 80 degrees. a little bit of fog. otherwise sunshine and temperatures will bump up. there's the system from the weekend. another one by the end of the month. there are signs of that, believe it or not. unless you have the fog, it will be a beautiful day. 60s, 70s and low 80s. okay, sal. hopefully your computer won't be doing that. >> well, they are computers and sometimes guess what computers don't always work the way that you want them to. >> no. >> you're kidding. >> redwood city, you want to
