audio ] -- are closed off because of the growing investigation. ktvu's jade hernandez joins us with an update. >> reporter: good morning. we've been out here since 4:00 this morning and we have been showing you how the authority is pushing the crime scene tape back. this crime lab vehicle was just -- has just been pulled into the crime scene within the last hour. this is video which we shot moments after the technicians began working. according to protocol, this shooting involved two concord officers. those officers were not hurt. those have been placed on paid administrative leave. the man officers shot and paramedics rushed to the hospital may have been a suspect wanted on several robbery warrants. they say two officers in a squad car patrolling around

2:30 noticed the man who matched the description. the officers tried to make contact along clayton road. the officers at some point in the chase got out of their squad car and an ralph the man only being described as a male in his 20s. authorities are still investigating whether the man actually opened fire on the officers. the man is at john muir medical center in walnut creek this morning. we don't have any word on his condition. >> it was just the officers out looking around and saw this individual and decided they wanted to stop and contact him and that's when the foot pursuit started. we don't have any information about whether or not any shots were fired by the suspect. we're still investigating that part of it. >> reporter: concord police cannot say if the man shot this morning was, indeed, the man who officers thought was wanted on those outstan -- outstanding

warrants. the lieutenant is looking in to for me how long the officers have been on the force. at this point, he can only say "a while." well, health experts are warning about toxic dangers tied to the blast in san bruno a week ago today. as we look out live, this is a wide, live picture of what it look like at the moment. all of that debris is a possible pool with toxins in it. there is a significant

revelation about the section of pipe north of the pipeline that blew up. kraig debro has more on why pg&e decided to delay the repairs on that aging line. >> reporter: good morning, dash. i'm gonna tell you that and also why pg&e won't say where the line is. now, this is the same gasline, different section, same gasline that exploded in san bruno a week ago today. a lot of questions about the pipeline that exploded there and here. now, we know that pg&e considered the pipe located here in the city is more risky than in san bruno, where it exploded. pg&e amid for and was given -- applied for and was given permission to raise our rates to pay for the pipeline in south san francisco. pg&e said the risk of the failure of the pipe was

unacceptably high. the utility collected nearly $5 million and was supposed to replace the intersection last year but did not. a year later, maybe some other item becomes more emergent that we need to fix. that's why we will direct the funds and then we'll go back and look at what the things are that are urgent tomorrow. >> according to these same documents, utility recently submitted a list of construction projects to the puc, the pipeline under san francisco, that's two and a half miles north of the section of san francisco is on the list. and they want the puc to put up on additional $5 million. people in south san francisco don't seem to be outraged at they are about the -- as they are about the section that poses an unacceptably higher

risk. >> they should be checking everything. they know there's something wrong. it makes me wrong. i think they should be more concerned about the people would live around the neighborhood. >> reporter: the same documents indicate the company still believes the area here needs to be replaced but doesn't plan to start the work unl 2012. i called pg&e, got ahold of them and asked about that. reporting live in san francisco, ktvu channel 2 news. >> thank you, kraig. now, the san bruno pipeline explosion has prompted the obama administration to beef up the pipeline safety and inspections but an east bay congressman said the changes don't go far enough. john garamendi says some of pg&e's most dangerous pipelines are in his district. he says the federal government

should immediately make sure they are safe. >> already scheduled is the replacement of the livermore/sunol pipeline. it's supposed to be begin in 2011. pg&e ought to be out there with the backhoes and shovels getting that project underway. >> garamendi took part in a hearing with the committee. we are continue, of course, to follow the san bruno fire and explosion during the next two hours here on "mornings on 2." you can get updates at any time by going to our channel 2 website, ktvu.com. 7:07. just released numbers on unemployment are somewhat encouraging. the labor department says new claims for jobless benefits fell by 3,000 to the lowest level in three months.

he than yesterday. headline is warmer. but the weekend's tough, tough, tough. >> patchy fog will give way to sunshine and warmer weather. drizzle returns tomorrow. it looks like rain for the north bay saturday afternoon, evening. maybe san jose north by sunday. it will be gone by monday. today's easy. after the fog, it will be sunny and a little bit warmer. the system is aligning itself more north to south. that's going to wipe it out, at least slow it down for a day. fremont, 56 right now. we'll go 68 and a high of 74 today which is three warmer than yesterday. 56 san francisco. we'll go for a high of 65. still belowage for this time of year -- still below average for this time of year, especially if you are fog-free.

to you. that's right. the bottom line is that the country and democrats are split about whether there should be tax increases for wealthy americans. an a.p. poll shows that about 54% of americans agree with president obama on the issue. he wants to let the bush-era tax cuts expire this year for households making over $250,000, while keeping the tax cuts for everyone else. but the same poll shows the rest of the country agrees with republicans who say everyone should keep this tax cuts. >> higher taxes won't get anybody hired. raising taxes on job creators won't create jobs and house republicans will stand united. >> we should be able to extend right now middle-class tax relief of the first -- on the first $250,000 of income. which, by the way, 98% of americans make less than $250,000 a year. >> reporter: now, the democrats
