UPDATE, SUNDAY, NOV. 19:The10 Freewaywill open Sunday night, earlier than previously expected.
This thing opens tonight and will be fully operational tomorrow, Gov.
Gavin Newsom said at a Sunday morning news conference.
This is a significant and big day.
He feels like between 30 and 35 years old, and his race is unknown.
He possibly has a burn on his left leg.
It subleased the property and allowed flammable materials to be stored on the land.
Newsom said Caltrans is reviewing all similar leases to determine if other companies might be violating lease terms.

UPDATE, THURSDAY PMThe fire-damaged 10 Freeway will reopen by Tuesday at the latest, according to California Gov.
The loss of the East-West highway has snarled local traffic.
Gavin Newsom declared the site a disaster area on Saturday, which frees up resources.
Caltrans said a full evaluation is needed to determine repairs.
However, that would have to wait until Hazmat materials specialists determine what caused the massive burn.
Meanwhile, Caltrans urged commuters to seek alternate routes to downtown and/or use public transportation.
Surrounding streets in the area were also closed.
Hundreds of thousands of vehicles use the freeway each day, and an extended shutdown would be chaotic.
The large storage fire shut down part of the 10 Freeway in downtown Los Angeles early Saturday morning.
The freeway closure is expected to last at least 24 hours, officials said.
Fire engulfed both sides of 14th Street underneath the 10.
The intense heat melted some of the roadways steel guardrails, according to LAFD Public Information Officer David Ortiz.
More than 150 firefighters battled the blaze.
The 10 is shut down between Alameda Street and Santa Fe Avenue.
