5:05 pm
ryan l. spencer is in custody in chicago for the deadly shooting of an anti ox man. that shooting happened on march 27th around three o'clock in the morning. in the area of south fourth street in east san carlos street near san jose. state police say the arrest warrant was issued last month. detectives just flew out there last week to interview him . he was already in custody on a previous arrest for domestic violence charges in chicago. right now, he's still remains in chicago in custody for that domestic violence charge, and he's waiting formal extradition back to our county to face homicide charges. authorities did not reveal a motive for the deadly shooting surveillance video shows how a car thief drag someone to get away with a vehicle in oakland. it happened in oakland's chinatown, your eighth and jackson you can see someone walk up to a car and get inside. shortly after that the car's owner rushes back to the vehicle and opens the door. the
5:06 pm
thief then took off in the car, dragging that owner or a short distance. the victim was left with cuts and scrapes. oakland police say if you have any information about this case, please give them a call. francisco firefighters rescued a man right near the cliff house. they say he fell over this ledge here early this morning. if you're not familiar with the area, this is kind of just north end of ocean beach. you can see the firefighters. they're able to use their ropes and pull that man up about 20 ft. from the cement barrier down below. now, they say it could have been much worse. he was just about a foot or two away from going even farther down, below all the way down to the ocean. alright turning to the busy bay area night in sports. here is a live look right now. from sky fox. you can see the traffic conditions right now are not that bad. given the busy night that we're about to have here in the bay area when it comes to sports. we were thinking earlier if you didn't need to be on the bay bridge might be a good idea to stay away from the downtown area. but again, we were just
5:07 pm
checking our live traffic cameras. and it's not that bad. maybe because everyone is taking mass transit to get to the games tonight or because they're just staying home to watch it on tv. now the giants are hosting the kansas city royals at oracle park, and the warriors are playing the boston celtics in game five of the nba finals and the winner of tonight's game will wait. be one win away from a championship. and with tip off now, less than an hour away. it's time to begin our team coverage. ktvu is amberleigh with fans that thrive city but first let's go courtside inside chase center with our joe fonzi joe, how's it going? hi julie. what you said, is pretty simple. it's now down to three games, and whoever wins two of those three is the nba champion. if the warriors can win it that would be four championships in eight years, and that's the type of stuff that you talk about when you say dynasties, especially given the fact that they missed two years of playoffs and one of the major reasons that they were not in the playoffs for two years was
5:08 pm
what happened to clay thompson. he was injured in that toronto raptors series that the raptors one in six games, the fifth consecutive trip to the finals for the warriors, and then two years of rehab for clay. so we've been talking about that anniversary it was three years ago. but another anniversary is very interesting. it was brought up tonight. it was 25 years ago that the warrior coach steve kerr had his shot that gave the chicago bulls a win over the utah jazz with five seconds left . that was the fifth of the bulls six championships. they did that in eight years. so another dynasty and obviously when guys are around each other as much as they are in a series like that topics come up like that, and er was asked tonight to reflect on that moment in his career. finals are the finals. whether you're playing or your coaching, it's the ultimate, uh, competition in the world of basketball. and so there's a lot of nerves and a lot of excitement and a lot of stress and all that stuff and i think
5:09 pm
my experience as a player has definitely helped me prepare to coach a team in the finals because i know what these guys are are feeling. and you can see that we're counting down to tip off right now. that's clay thompson out there going through his pregame routine, and i know that he's hoping that he doesn't have too many of those clients like that, as he was. trying for a three pointer there in his warmups, but you know, as i said, guys, it's very simple. now it's just whoever wins two games and you have three opportunities to do that. the other thing that has been kind of a characteristic of this series. neither team has taken full advantage of home court advantage. they've split the two games here. they split the two games in boston. it's home court advantage now to the warriors again. they've regained that if they take care of business at home. they're champions. so that's where we stand right now is both teams want to try to make a big step and win that third game with an eventual four
5:10 pm
necessary to be a champion guys, and we were talking a little bit about this last night, and draymond green's deaf curry klay thompson. they haven't really seemed to be quite in sync like they have been in previous c series. do you think we might see them come out all together tonight, and if so they're going to be a tough matchup against the celtics. yeah no question about that. julia. i was in boston for games three and four and obviously like to listen to what the talk radio is staying in the hometown there and they were saying we saw what steph curry did in game four. he had 43 points. draymond has not had his best games play had 18 in that game and gave the had that big shot that gave them the lead . but i think you could say we have not seen vintage klay thompson and draymond green yet in this series, and what the people in boston fear they know what curry is, if they get vintage of those other two guys, not to mention what andrew wiggins and jordan's pool and kevon looney brings you the picture. they're afraid of the warriors, but so far the words haven't gotten that we'll see if
5:11 pm
they get it tonight. all right. a lot of warriors fans hoping they do get it tonight and we will all be watching joe. thank you. and for those without a ticket inside the arena, there is plenty of space for fans just outside and thrive. city that's where we find ktvu is amber lee and amber, can you feel the energy building out there? absolutely it's on a whole different level when we're talking about the finals, game five. now there is a mood of nervous energy out here. i want to show you what it looks like here at dr city, the doors open to fans at 4 30 fans are still arriving. those who don't have tickets will be watching here at dr city on that huge screen you see up there fans are eager to see the warrior take the lead in the finals for the first time in this series of it isn't infectious. everyone's dressed up. it's loud, it's all ready to go our or something to get here because it's a good vibe out here with other people. we all want the same thing. you know a lot of other world words pants
5:12 pm
and it's a great game is game five. this is a crucial game. many would say it's not must win, but it's must win. it's time to make this thing happen. don't warriors. thanks you're looking at a live picture of fans just arriving getting in into the chase center, and there are again many fans is just going to watch it right out here. tip off is less than one hour away, and fans tell me not only are they excited but anxious on pins and needles, they say this game is a must for mike don't like the nervous energy. i want the confidence. i think they'll start seeing the confidence coming in there, especially after tip off. hopefully the warriors can get the big w tonight. alright amberleigh there and thrive. city amber. thank you, nba commissioner adam silver. canceled plans to attend tonight's game, citing the league's health and safety protocols typically does attend all final games. the league did not say if silver had tested positive for covid or had been deemed a close contact with

5:20 pm
the campfire. it started. campfire started polga. which is just before you get to, uh, up up the up the road there so by where the dixie fire was okay, so our story here is warmer today. this is a long range model and pushing it in here because i want you just to get the broad brush. what's happening, long range model. so here's today. here's tomorrow. and what you're going to see is nothing really except clear skies right, indicating high pressure. so tomorrow is warmer. wednesday's warm or the same and then watch what happens on thursday. right, so it's going to cool down. so how do you ask to be warmer? how? you know it's gonna be cooler. if you look at something like this, and you go with the clouds come in, right. and just through the virtue of the cloud, you're gonna be cooler. but there's onshore winds that come with it to friday. looks cool. saturday looks mild to cool sunday looks a little warmer. and then out onto the bridge. we're right now. we don't have any fog to speak of. we've got a pretty nice day out there. good air quality little bit of wind. but overall is a beautiful weekend. we had a little bit of

that's absolutely right. so people behind me have been paying almost $10 for a gallon of gas. people have been stopping. they look at the price, and then they drive away down the road where the gas prices are almost $3 cheaper. some of those people are taking pictures. i spoke to someone they say that they're just frustrated with the situation and how high gas prices are, but this is a unique situation. i spoke to the employee at the gas station. he talks to the owner regularly, and he kind of explain the situation where she's having to pay more for gas as well. they don't have enough of room in the fuel tanks so they can store less. they can only store so much gas. they don't have a convenient store so they aren't making as much profit and he told me that if they were to charge any less for gas, they would end up losing money. triple a is saying that when you are going on road trips and headed to some of these coastal towns or even rural towns if you're headed to a
5:48 pm

um california giovanni luigi ktvu, fox two news. giovanni is just scary when you think they could go even higher than where they are right now, and you're in mendocino. it's nearly $10 a gallon. have you seen anybody stopping today at that little gas station behind you to fill up? yeah that's absolutely right . so people have stopped. they put a couple of dollars in and then it seems like they just get enough of gas to make it down the road and that's where they're filling up for that $6 in 19, since i believe is what it was just about 10 minutes away, so people have stopped and they have gotten some gas here pays to shop around. definitely when prices are that high, giovanni. thank you. according to triple a here in the bay area. the highest gas prices are in marin, san francisco and san mateo counties where it's at least $6.63 for a gallon of regular gas. it's 6 56 in alameda county, 6 54 in santa clara county, and the least expensive area for gas is solano county, where the average price
