in the back window and they say the mother placed the 7-year-old in the closet, and rocha was instructing her and her 18-year-old son to kneel and tie each other up. the police chief says when he raised the machete, officers broke the window and one officer shot rocha multiple times. he later died at the hospital. the chief's the officer's actions saved lives. >> to say i'm proud of the officers does not begin to describe what it feels like to lead our amazing men and women. the successful rescue of this policeman is a testament of the dedication of the men and women of the san jose police department. >> you know, ian, i think a question a lot of people have right now is why. why did he go into their homes? did police explain a motive at all? >> they did talk about that. the suspect was actually recently evicted from that apartment complex and may have broken into the wrong apartment, because the family says that they did not know rocha at all. our sister station telemundo spoke with the father of the family who didn't want to be

identified. he says the suspect was angry and demanded to get the apartment manager, or he said something bad was going to happen. police say that he was asking to get his keys back. so it's believed he may have broken in thinking that that would be the apartment manager's place or not. they're not sure. and that's still part of their continuing investigation. we'll have more on the story coming up at 5:30. >> all right, ian, thank you for that. appreciate it. we are continuing to follow sad news out of tennessee today. three students and three adults were killed this morning when a 28-year-old now identified as national resident audrey hale opened fire at a school in nashville. police say hale identifies as transgender and entered the school through a side door, and began firing. about 15 minutes later, officers shot and killed hale. the victims have been identified as three 9-year-old students as well as three adults in their 60s. >> there were so many police,

and then the ambulances started pulling away from the school. and that's when i heard there was a school shooting. >> at one point, she was student at that school. but unsure what year all of that. but that's what i've been told so far. >> and police say the suspect was armed with at least two assault-type rifles and a handgun. at this point it's not clear how the shooter was able to get into that school. california governor gavin newsom reacting on twitter today saying, quote, we call ourselves land of the free yet our kids and teachers are gunned down in school and forced to live in fear of being killed while being educated. this isn't going to stop until we come together to pass basic gun safety laws in our nation. well, the search is on tonight -- this afternoon, i should say, for a hit-and-run driver who killed a mother and hurt her 11-year-old daughter. police say it happened just before 7:00 last night on blossom hill road as the two were crossing the street inside

the crosswalk at leigh avenue. police believe a woman who was driving a blue-green honda ran a red light and hit the mother and child. the family dog was also hit and killed. this afternoon police say they made a major break in this case. >> the vehicle that was utilized in this hit-and-run was located just out of san jose borders, has been recovered, and it's just moments away from discovering who the driver was. i take the opportunity to urge that person who knows very well what happened to come to the police department and turn themselves in. >> and we have just confirmed that the 45-year-old mother who was killed was limin cao. her daughter was walking a bike and wearing a helmet. she suffered minor injuries to her chin and ankle. marianne favro spoke with the young girl today and we'll have more on the story at 5:00 tonight. wind gusts up to 60 miles per hour are predicted along the coast for the storm that is approaching the bay area

tonight. the san francisco authorities are going beyond the usual advisories about sandbags and storm drains because repairs are still being made at a number of places, including salesforce tower east after winds of up to 78 miles per hour you'll remember last tuesday blew out windows there, and at least three other high-rise towers. a total of six high-rises have been damaged by winds in the last two weeks. two people also died and a police officer was critically injured by falling trees and branches. and people who live in some high-rise towers in the city say they've been getting notices by building management to get ready for another windstorm. >> our building is mid-70s. and the earthquake and some other things. but we got some notices be sure to keep our windows closed and secure anything that's on our patio which would be pretty easy for things to blow off.5q >> the u.s. coast guard is also telling people to have boats and barges in bay area harbors to

make sure they're securely tied down. seven-foot swells in the bay last tuesday caused bay ferries to cancel service, and three large barges broke loose and crashed into a drawbridge in san francisco. you'll remember, we told you about that. it's not just san francisco. people all over the bay area are preparing for yet another storm coming in and the possible problems it could bring. so joining us now is nbc bay area's pete serrato. i know you're standing along a very populal7usñ street there t was heavily impacted during the last storm. i still see that red ñ>ks behind you saying "danger." a lot of trees came down in that area here in walnut creek. is the city nervous at this point that another storm is coming yet again? >> yeah, well, they're definitely prepared for it. residents are concerned about it. and we're standing along nacho valley boulevard. the sidewalk is still closed because a couple of weeks ago you had trees fall down blocking

multiple lanes of traffic in this area. and i did get a chance to talk to the city. and they tell me that contractors that are needed remove those trees that you're looking at, well, they have a backlog of requests. that's why it's taking longer to remove these trees. usually it takes two to three days to remove it. as far as clearing up this specific area, that's still to be determined. >> i know you got a chance to speak with a woman who lives in concord who was trying to remove a tree inxñvu her area. and she was -- there was a close call for her as well, i understand, during the last storm. what is she telling you today? >> yeah, very close call for that woman. she was removing a redwood tree from her backyard. she says that a large branch from that tree fell into the fence. that prompted her to take action to remove that tree before tomorrow's storm. and she tells me her husband and kids lived inside. that was a close call. so she would rather be safe than sorry.

that's why she was removing that tree this morning. >> rather be safe than sorry. pete, have you been able to speak with local officials at all? do they have any advice for all of us on how to stay prepared? because it seems like these forms are coming one after another. >> yeah, certainly feels like it's never ending. i just spoke with contra costa public works. they told me for folks to be aware of their surroundings and avoid travel if they can. >> all right. pete suratos, thank you so much for that. stay safe out there. okay. on a sunny day like today, time to enjoy it, right? you may want to enjoy a meal outside, of course. hundreds of people of san francisco restaurants have park lets for us to do just that. but they won't be around forever. we'll tell you about that in just a bit. rob made darks i'm looking at the view in san francisco. we needed this. >> we had 60s today.

calm before the storm. pretty nice. we have increasing clouds. our first focus tonight will be the wind advisory starting in the north bay at 11:00 tonight. and then gusty wind and heavy rain. we've grown accustomed to this on tuesdays. another round coming in tomorrow morning. let's take a look at how things are shaping up. in terms of the wind advisory, it's the coastal areas, north bay hilltops, eventually san francisco down into the santa cruz mountains and east bay hills tomorrow morning. we will see gusts of 40 to 60 miles per hour. the peak of the winds, we're going to have tree issues and power issues likely midmorning tomorrow. you can see the time stamp. gusts around san francisco, 40 to 50 miles per hour. but improving conditions, at least in terms of the wind as we head towards tomorrow afternoon. those wind speeds will start to come down. so the peak impact of this incoming storm, the morning commute there on tuesday through about midday. rain starting to move south as we head towards the afternoon. and there is a chance, along with the cooler temperatures, we fct thunderstorms. so let's show you the timing now

hour-by-hour in the storm. storm ranger already scanning a few showers in the north bay. look at the curls of the clouds offshore that is the rapidly deepening area of low pressure, which will drive the heavy rain at times and the gusty winds. and you're seeing it right there. 7:00 a.m. across the north bay to san francisco around 8:00 a.m. and the focus shifts to the central bay and south bay during the early afternoon. you see that bulls-eye right over the santa cruz mountains at 1:00 tomorrow afternoon. and that main rain line pushes out. but we're not done yet.4m as we can see scattered showers, a chance of some thunderstorms will be ongoing as we head into wednesday. and you'll see between tonight through wednesday, 5:00, those rain totals are going to add up. areas of red and purple showing you that rain potential of 2 to 4 inches in the wetter locations of the north bay mountains and santa cruz mountains by about wednesday evening. after that, we should catch a bit of a break. there are technically some rain chances ahead as we head towards the weekend that will be a storm not nearly as intense as what

we're seeing rolling here. the seven-day forecast will provide a little break as get into thursday with a few more showers into next weekend. we'll have a closer look at the incoming storm of chief meteorologist jeff ranieri coming up today. back to you. >> rob, thank you. we're talking about a sunny day like today, you may want to enjoy a meal outside, right? hundreds of san francisco restaurants have parklets for doing just that, but they won't be around for that, unless owners meet an upcoming deadline. you remember parklets sprouted up out of necessity during the pandemic. but now a lot of restaurants want the keep them, of course. going forward, they will come at a price. san francisco shared space program is accepting applications through this friday, march 31st. business also have to pay $2,000 a year for parking spots that they want to keep as dining space. and there is a maximum of two spaces per business. >> the shared spaces program has helped retain and stabilize our small businesses and

neighborhoods, and they've also allowed those folks to retain their employees and their jobs. >> get this. as of last week, the city had more than 700 parklet applications. almost 600 of them are renewals. the city is offering discount fees for smaller mom and pop businesses. all right. still ahead, we have the heartbreaking updates on that police chase in rodeo after a mother was killed when her 6-year-old son passed at the hospital today. we are going to hear from that family in just a few minutes. and silicon valleyy' taken over. but is your money safe? our business and tech reporter joins us next.
