two young boys. her boys are 5 and 1. >> reporter: throughout the day the santa cruz pd received an outpouring of support from the community. >> i was at flower stores and i saw people crying at the flower stores doing the same thing i was doing, getting flowers to bring here because they didn't know what else to do. >> reporter: there is a growing memorial of flowers, candles and handwritten notes evidence of how devastating a blow this is the city and community of santa cruz. >> horrific for all of us. i'm sad. mad. i have all these mixed emotions. and i have never seen this in all the years that i have been here to happen to the santa cruz police department. >> reporter: the candles continue to burn at the santa cruz police department as they will for days to come as this community comes together and grieves. elizabeth, this is very reminiscent of what happened after the loma prieta earthquake where the community of santa cruz had to come together. they also gathered at the louden nelson community center back in those days. and it is reminiscent as you see people come together, there are long hugs and people are

really pulling together and kind of telling each other they have to do what they have to do, to pull this community together in their time of need. >> it's clearly a very special community in the way that they bond together over tragedies like this. >> reporter: that's right. >> all right, len, thank you. more now on the gunman germany goulet. he was -- jeremy goulet. he was fired from his job on thursday the day before arrested for breaking into a coworker's house making unwanted sexual advances. in 2008 in portland, oregon goulet was convicted of a sex crime in a peeping incident. >> the first time he had the screen off the bathroom window. and the window open with a stick through it. and he was looking at my girlfriend take a shower. >> i felt horrible. it felt horrible. for a while i couldn't go not bathroom by myself. >> goulet fired a gun in a struggle with the victim's boyfriend and eventually served jail time. we learned today that goulet's own father called him

a ticking time bomb. he was ready to take on and take down anyone who got in his way. mark sayre has new details on the events leading up to the suspect's last stand yesterday. mark. >> reporter: well, allen, investigators say these two detectives really did not have any chance. they were in plainclothes. they were not suspecting any kind of trouble when they encountered the suspect and they were shot and killed right on his doorstep. bullet holes riddle the garage where police and sheriff's deputies finally confronted suspect jeremy goulet and where goulet was shot and killed. this was just a half block away from where the two santa cruz officers were killed about a half hour earlier. >> there's no such thing as routine police work. however, the information that they possessed at the time they went out to contact this suspect gave them no suspicion that they would be in danger. >> reporter: santa cruz county sheriff phil wowak today revealed new details of the murders of sergeant butch baker

and detective elizabeth butler. >> both detectives were killed at the doorstep of goulet's home. following the detectives' individual murders, they were disarmed by goulet and detective baker's vehicle was stolen by goulet. >> reporter: radio dispatch tapes reveal the first indication that officers might be down. >> unknown type of shooting. we have a report of a gunshot wound. they did have officers in that area doing follow-up. and we are just getting multiple reports of shots heard and now being advised of possible victims. >> reporter: then confirmation. >> two officers down. stand by for project rope. >> reporter: project rope is a multi-agency effort to block the escape routes of a potential suspect. >> we know now that he was distraught. we know now that he had intentions of potentially harming people and/or the

police. >> reporter: and wowak says the suspect was ready for a fight. >> when goulet was discovered on the ground post-shooting, he was wearing body armor. in the initial investigation of that scene, we found goulet had possessed three different handguns as well as the body armor. >> reporter: back at the scene of the murder, a neighbor heard the initial volley of shots and was devastated to learn what happened. >> five minutes later the volley of gunfire must have been about a dozen shots. i had assumed it was the officers firing at the suspect. but i learned it was the other way around. >> reporter: investigators said the fire department got caught up in all this. fire officers had arrived to help the call of the downtown officers. that's when the second shooting took place. the gun battle with the suspect himself, a fire department vehicle was shot up and we're told that several fire

department employees actually ran to pull citizens to safety. in one case, one officer was was described one fire department person tackled somebody to the ground to protect that person and the police department calling the fire department heroes. the fire department though not ready to talk about this today. they are grieving, as well. they were very much involved in this just as the santa cruz police department was, as well. back to you. >> mark, you know, when you hear about how many shots were being fired back and forth and in your video we saw the size of the hole put in the house of the siding of the house. >> reporter: yeah. >> it's a miracle nobody else was hurt. >> reporter: it really is. when you look at that apartment complex where that garage is shot up, i mean, it's a very densely populated area. somebody could have been parking a car, a bullet could have flown through a window. a lot of people live there. the fact that nobody else is involved, indeed something very fortunate for everything involved. >> indeed. all right, mark, thanks so much. for more on the officers killed including we have this morning's news conference in its entirety, you can log on to our website, cbssf.com and we will have more on the suspect a

little later in this newscast. transit officials today approved millions of dollars to help throw a party to open the new eastern span of the bay bridge. that will happen 187 days from now. just after the labor day weekend. the money approved will help cover costs of opening the bridge to the public. the question now is, should people coming to the party have to pay, as well? >> reporter: it will be a once- in-a-lifetime party. a bash on the bay bridge when the new eastern span opens over labor day weekend and it's going to cost millions. 5.6million to be exact. today the bay area toll authority approved a $5.6 million contract to help throw the party. what they don't know is how they are going to pay for it, with public money from bridge tolls or with private sponsorship. >> a lot of companies made a lot of money on this project from public funds.

those companies ought to be stepping up. >> reporter: the private sector is pitching in on the $9 million party. the private bay area bridge alliance has raised $3.5 million to pay for fireworks, a half marathon and a bike ride leaving the public to pay the remaining $5.6 million which will cover transportation, security and crowd control. but state senator jerry hill doesn't want the public paying for it and is introducing a bill to make it illegal. >> i like a good party. i think a party is a good idea. but the idea of making the commuters and the taxpayers be responsible for that just didn't seem right. >> reporter: today commissioners debated another solution whether to have the public pay a minimum of $5 to walk across the bridge the day before it opens to help recoup public funds. >> i think everybody should be able to have the opportunity to come and they shouldn't be barred by having some kind of a fee. >> i think it is appropriate to charge a fee. maybe not a significant fee. >> reporter: for now, that proposal is up in the air along

with the question of who will pay for this party. christin ayers, kpix 5. >> and kpix 5 is the official broadcast partner for the bay bridge alliance. a little later in this newscast, a story you're only going to see right here on kpix 5. we'll take you inside a little known tunnel across the bay. right now, san francisco utility crews are working to repair a giant sinkhole created early this morning. a 16" water pipe came apart and pumped hundreds of thousands of gallons of water on to the streets above. it happened about 3 a.m. near 15th and wawona street. kpix 5 reporter phil matier shows us how the clean-up is coming along tonight. >> reporter: it's interesting. it's very slowly but it's interesting, allen, and this is another one of those stories that just goes to show that in an aging city, sometimes your biggest headaches can be under your feet and you don't know they're coming. this was the scene today as a small army of city workers,

private clean-up crews, insurance adjustors and stunned homeowners began dick digging out from the water that flooded the street when a 16" city water pipe ruptured early this morning sending thousands of gallons of water up to three feet deep in some places. >> i went downstairs without any boots or anything, and i was in water about a foot and a half probably. my car had water in it parked in the garage. so it was quite a mess. >> i'm not sure insurance even covers this. >> reporter: how come? >> they said that it's ground water. >> reporter: as for permanent damage -- >> it moves elements in the foundation. >> reporter: cracks are also growing on his walls and a sinkhole has opened up in his neighbor's backyard. it's too early for damage estimates, but considering that homes here go for about a million dollars or more each, it is definitely going to cost. residents tell us that they were told the pipe may have been damaged when the city was replacing a nearby sewer line. >> there is a possibility that, you know, some of that work might have impacted this work. we don't know yet.

>> reporter: or it could have been a defective well. >> that's why they removed that entire section of pipe and sending it off for analysis. we'll know in a few days more about what the cause was. >> reporter: now, we as ratepayers and water users are probably going to pay for this work including the damage. i got to tell you, i was talking with one gentleman down the street. he woke up this morning had 3 feet of water in his new basement he just renovated. what is he going to do now? he said renovate it again. >> i like the comment from the guy who says the insurance company says it's ground water. it wasn't in the ground until the city put it there. [ laughter ] >> reporter: go figure. >> phil matier in san francisco, thank you. they lost contact with loved ones a month ago. just an hour ago, we heard from the family of a bay area couple thought to be missing in peru. >> plus, we're off to our dry he is year in more than 100 years. the bay area city that hasn't been this dry since the mid 1800s. >> guess what.

basis. and that all stopped after january 25. the family contacted u.s. and peruvian officials after the state department issued a travel warning noting that criminals may have been planning to kidnap u.s. citizens in peru. >> i can't wait to see my son and his girlfriend, jamie, walking off a plane in sfo and grabbing him in my arms and holding him close to me. >> reporter: and we don't know when that couple will fly back to the bay area. in fact, the family would not take any questions during that brief press conference. a lot of questions such as, why they all of a sudden stopped contacting their family members and friends. allen? >> i guess rule number one, you're going to go off the grid, let somebody know you're going off the grid for weeks at

a time. >> reporter: exactly. maybe they were having too much fun. >> maybe. we'll find out. da lin, thanks. it's been a dry start to 2013 and in fact, the last time the bay area saw this little rain millard fillmore was president and california had only been a state for less than two years. kpix 5 reporter ann notarangelo tells us why water officials aren't worried. >> reporter: it's been a week since any rainfall and november and december deluge is but the a memory. across the bay area we are off to the driest year in decades. in san francisco, it's the driest start since 1852. lately, we have been awash in sunshine. >> the water district is continuously looking at what water supplies we have available to serve our customers. >> reporter: and the contra costa water district says it thinks it's in good shape this season even with a dry spell. >> we will probably use some of the storm in the reservoir but that's why we have it. >> reporter: e.b. m.u.d. said it started the rainy season with 200% of the average

water storage and is down to 80% which is still considered good. the reservoirs have up to three years' supply but if we don't get two to three big storms by late spring, e.b. m.u.d. says automatic triggers kick in. the first step is voluntary conservation but no one is using the word drought. >> of course, we always encourage our customers to use water wisely and don't wastewater. but there's no need to panic at this point. >> reporter: across the bay area, water districts are talking about record low rainfall but above average water storage. even in marin county, which heavily relies on local rainfall, their water storage is at 97% capacity. they don't think they will have to talk about water rationing come spring. keep in mind our rainy season isn't over and we could still get our fair share. >> we have in the past. i mean, there's been miracle marches. >> reporter: which brings us back to 1852 and those parched conditions. that march, san francisco got

more than 6" of rain, twice the normal amount. one can hope history is destined -- is going to repeat itself. >> reservoir levels are below normal and lower than normal snowpack in the sierra nevada mountains where santa clara gets half of its water won't help. paul deanno is here. you know, typically what happens, we have these long dry spells and how we break those is this deluge thing but you don't see this. >> sometimes normal rainfall is a drought and a flood divided by two. then you get there. i wouldn't be surprised at all if we end up with november through april being normal ralph. we got about 80% of it in november. not a drop since. feels like that. a beautiful night outside. the atmosphere is a little more humid so we'll be a little more efficient in holding the heat this evening. won't be as chilly overnight. a few of you made 70 again. sonoma hit 70. gilroy beat you by 4, 74 degrees there. concord, san jose hit 68. now, on the peninsula, look at

san francisco only 64. it was the mid-50s by the afternoon. and half moon bay only 56. that's because of the onshore flow. i'll explain that in a second. here's a look at our radar. it is mainly dry right now. and we'll stay that way, kpix 5 high-def doppler radar, there is some rain in northern california but you have to go about three hours north of here to get there. increasing high cloud cover passes by to the north because that ridge of high pressure is shoving that moisture far away from us. so we will go from an onshore flow to an offshore or northeast wind by friday. that will warm us up even in san francisco likely close to 70 degrees. then after that, we'll see some changes. the onshore flow is back for everybody. we are cooler over the weekend, low 60s by sunday. and there is some rain moving in by the middle of next week so 70s on friday, we'll be down to the low 60s by sunday but still dry. rain holds off until next tuesday. highs tomorrow oakland 67. san jose 67. fairfield 69.

wine country will hit the 70s once again. extended forecast low 70s on friday. then we cool down over the weekend but a pleasant weekend to get outside. we have two chances of rain next tuesday -- do you believe it? wow! breaking news! two chances of rain next tuesday and next wednesday. >> wednesday are we getting a little bit more? >> looks like this could be .25" to half inch of rain. that's not a ton but compared to the past couple of weeks, it's not bad. >> it's a start. >> thank you. next stop, devil's slide! tonight a tour of the new tunnel and how it is so smart, it can even override your radio.

feature that allows the tunnel to talk to drivers. >> reporter: it feels like traveling into the future. caltrans says the new tom lantos tunnel at devil's slide is one of the most advanced tunnels in the nation. and it's almost ready to open. >> we're doing the final testing of both the equipment and the people that use the equipment. we're putting in safety systems and traffic operating systems. >> reporter: this mile-long tunnel is actually two tunnels. one in each direction equipped with 32 high-powered jet fans that can clear both tubes in less than 90 seconds. there are 21 emergency boxes, security cameras and intrusion alarms all being tested. but the most unusual high-tech feature is this plain white pipe. it's actually an antenna connected to what's called a rebroadcast system. >> it can override any radio station you're listening to, a.m. or fm, so in case there's an emergency, we can come on and

override your radio and say, stop your car, get out here, go through the cross passage. >> reporter: and, of course, the heat sensors that the state fire marshal is testing today. all of it controlled here on site 24/7 to blend in with the hills caltrans hired the landscape artist who designed the disneyland indiana jones ride. he molded the structural concrete from local rocks using five different paints to achieve a natural effect. while the tunnel appears to be pretty much done, caltrans says there's still a lot of testing and certification that has to be completed. so they will commit to an opening date only if sometime this spring. in pacifica, don ford, kpix 5. >> now, while some critics say the tunnel only saves five minutes of commute time, caltrans says when the devil's slide section of the highway washes out again, that tunnel could save as much as an hour.

goulet was shot and killed. this was just a half block away from where police sergeant butch baker and detective elizabeth butler were killed. the santa cruz county sheriff's department is heading up this investigation. first you'll hear from sheriff phil wowak and then some of the audio recordings of the police radio transmissions at the time the officers were shot. >> both detectives were killed at the doorstep of goulet's home following the detective's individual murders, they were disarmed by goulet and their -- detective baker's vehicle was stolen by goulet. >> unknown type of shooting. we have a report of a gunshot wound. they did have officers in that area doing follow-up and we are getting reports of multiple shots heard. two officers down. stand by for project rope. >> reporter: right now the

louden nelson community center a community memorial is under way. hundreds of people came together to grieve to write down their thoughts and feelings about the fallen officers. people have also been gathering at the santa cruz police department over the past day to light candles and leave cards and flowers to the fallen officers and also their call leagues in the police department. now the sheriff's department and the chp are actually handling all the on duty patrol in the city of santa cruz right now. the entire 95 sworn officer force is off duty today through the evening so they can be together at these memorials so they can grieve. the counsels have been brought into the department. the department has no road map. this hasn't happened before. they are dealing with it the best way they can in uncharted territory for them. you can definitely feel the raw emotion here. >> when we think of officers in uniform they have the body armor on but they were in plainclothes so they weren't wearing that stuff. >> reporter: there was no specific mentions at today's

news conference about whether they were wearing body armor or not. the assumption was not because they were in plainclothes but that specific point was not addressed so to be clear we don't know if they did have body armor on or not. we're speculating. >> thank you. mark sayre, thank you. tonight goulet's father tells the "associated press" that his son was a ticking time bomb with a deep resentment for law enforcement and the justice system. and in recent years. he had run-ins with both. >> two officers down. >> reporter: before last night's explosion of violence in santa cruz, jeremy goulet's criminal record traced back to portland, oregon and a young couple's bathroom window. >> he was looking at my girlfriend take a shower. >> reporter: three separate types in late 2007. >> it felt horrible. for a while i couldn't go to the bathroom alone. >> reporter: during a third incident the victim's boyfriend confronted the peeper. as they struggled on the

sidewalk, goulet had a gun. the first shot hit the ground. >> second shot it was kind of pointing right at me and i remember just going like that. he wouldn't let go of the gun. and that's when i bit his ear off. i was so tired i couldn't punch him anymore. but he was screaming at me and he was like you bit off my ear, you, you know, you tried shooting mirror. >> reporter: goulet was charged with attempted murder. he was convicted of two misdemeanors, carrying a gun without a permit and invasion of privacy. he was sentenced to three years of probation and sex offender treatment. but goulet grew frustrated with the rules, specifically the random searches of his computer and cell phone. after confrontation with his probation officer, he was given a choice, stick to his sex offender treatment or go to jail. goulet chose two years in jail. he surfaced in santa cruz in just the past several months taking a job at the kind grind coffee shop.

>> just remember he was intense. something about him was like kind of you know -- >> reporter: it was an incident with a female coworker that ultimately drew the attention of police an investigation that ended in disaster. >> that's what happens when crazy people move in. >> he spent part of his life in the military. he was in marine corps reserves in 1996 and served until 2002 working as a helicopter mechanic and with the military police. the father of a first grader killed in newtown urged congress to pass senator dianne feinstein's assault weapons ban. today neil hansen told the senate judiciary committee about the last time he saw his 6-year-old son jesse. he says jesse told him good- bye, i love you, when he dropped him off at school the morning of december 14. 20 minutes later the shooting at sandy hook elementary happened. >> when he was getting out of

there will be more. tonight a story that hasn't been done before. only on kpix 5, christin ayers takes us inside a little known tunnel. >> reporter: there's no doubt that the self-anchored suspension tower is what makes the new bay bridge iconic. into people know that the nerve center of the new bridge is actually in its underbelly up a flight of stairs over the bay and into a dimly lit hall that most people will never see. >> we are inside the skyway. >> reporter: you heard that right. we are standing inside the hollow center of the new bay bridge. >> we are beneath the roadway. so when the bridge opens on labor day weekend and there are maintenance crews inside here, there will be a live traffic driving overhead. >> reporter: the corridor runs 1.7 miles a worker could walk it from the middle of the bay all the way to oakland and along the way find the engineering marvels that make it safer than any other bridge. at the halfway point of the tunnel there are a maze of

seismic fail safes. if there is damage from an earthquake this is where it's designed to happen. the expansion joints will move like accordions and it will take the energy. >> if something is going to break, that's what's going to break. >> reporter: and crews are know exactly where to find and fix the damage. we also discovered passages within the passage. this hatch doesn't look like much. but climb down the ladder and it leads you inside one of these, the concrete pillars that hold up the bridge. >> they are able to climb down inside the columns and take a look for any kind of, you know, the same cracks and fractures that may occur over time or after an earthquake. >> reporter: other parts of the passageway powers the bridge itself. this substation is essentially a giant fuse box that controls the lights on the bridge. >> there's a lot of engineering that went into the bridge that people haven't seen and probably won't see. >> reporter: that's how this bridge was built.

look, if you have copd like me you know it can be hard to breathe, and how that feels. copd includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. spiriva helps control my copd symptoms by keeping my airways open for 24 hours. plus, it reduces copd flare-ups.

spiriva is the only once-daily inhaled copd maintenance treatment that does both. spiriva handihaler tiotropium bromide inhalation powder does not replace fast-acting inhalers for sudden symptoms. tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, glaucoma, trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. these may worsen with spiriva. discuss all medicines you take, even eye drops. stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if your breathing suddenly worsens your throat or tongue swells, you get hives, vision changes or eye pain or problems passing urine. other side effects include dry mouth and constipation. nothing can reverse copd. spiriva helps me breathe better.

clothing that gets lost on the slopes? two walnut creek teenagers came up with an idea that snowballed, you might say. as sharon chin reports, it earned them this week's jefferson award. >> reporter: 13-year-old best friends corinne hindes and katrine kirsebom unload a special delivery for walnut creek's homeless, warm jackets, sweater, hats and gloves. they help chelce nolan survive when he was on the streets. >> really it's the difference between staying reasonably comfortable and being miserable. >> reporter: they created k&c care two years ago. they have a creative idea. collect items people lose at ski resorts and donate them to the homeless. corinne says they wanted to do something good. >> we used to walk down the street and see all these homeless people and they didn't really have very warm attire
