The race for president now, your voice, your vote, and that new National Poll shows some big moves, ted cruz on the rise pulling close to donald trump, the two of them pulling away from the rest of the field as donald trump has colorful language for Hillary Clinton. Jon karl issen 0 the trail. Good morning, jon. Reporter ted cruz is rising fast, but donald trump remains on top and he is now aiming his clinton. Overnight at a packed rally in grand rapids, michigan, donald trump went on an odd diatribe against Hillary Clinton. Using a sexually derogatory term to describe how she got beat by barack obama in 2008. She was favored to win and she got [ bleep ]. She lost. I mean she lost. Reporter and he went after her for what she said in the abc democratic debate. What happened to her . No, shes terrible. Shes terrible. Donald trump is on video and isis is using him on the video to recruit and it turned out to be a lie. Reporter that you would sponsor reporter thats a reference to this moment from the debate. They are going to people showing videos of donald trump insulting islam and muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists. Reporter Clintons Campaign is providing no direct evidence trump has demanded an apology. Hillary clinton says hell no she wont apologize. Youve demanded an apology. What now . Look, she lies and has been a liar whether emails or reporter said hell no. She doesnt want to apologize. Thats okay. Thats up to her but she lied and she should apologize. Reporter the argument shes paying beyond the video is that your words are being broadcast throughout the arab world and, you know, why i mean, is there any doubt that isis would use what youre saying about muslims. But there is no argument beyond the video. She said donald trump is on a video and theyre distributing the you know, et cetera, et cetera, okay, and there really is no argument beyond the video. They are using lots of things, i imagine to recruit but they didnt use me on a video and im not sure they used me at all frankly. Reporter he angrily dismissed suggestions he is the republican Hillary Clinton could beat most eastly. When they say they want to dont want to run against me. Reporter i saw you tweet about it. I did. Reporter you talk to democrats. They say they would love nothing more to run against you. Because thats a smart thing for them to say. I have to apologize. Reporter and for the first time on camera trump, the former owner of the Miss Universe pageant who sold the organization after a controversy about his comments on immigrants weighed in on the screwup sunday night when miss colombia was briefly crowned the winner by mistake. What was your reaction when you saw that happen and you saw them crown the wrong winner. It was just a mistake. He read the card wrong. Simple. He just read it wrong. Crazy the way life works. It will probably end up being a good thing all over the world thats what they want to ask about. Reporter trump told me he believes Hillary Clinton will be a tough opponent for republicans, but, george, he is absolutely insistent that he is the republican best poised to beat her. Lets go back to that new poll out. Cruz moving up a lot and big moves for some of the other contenders beneath. Reporter yeah, moves down for ben carson and for marco rubio. They both lost significant ground over the last month. The other movement is at the back of the pack can Chris Christie moving up slightly, still at the back but moving ahead within the margin of error of jeb bush. Yeah, hes moving up in new hampshire, as well. Jon karl, thanks very much. We have new information about that horrifying scene on the Las Vegas Strip. And the woman who intentionally drove into crowds of tourists killing a young mother and injuring dozens more. Abcs Kayna Whitworth is live at the scene for us. Good morning, kayna. Reporter lara, good morning to you. Were learning this morning that the woman behind the wheel shouldnt have been driving at all. Her license had been recently suspended. This morning, police saying 24yearold Lakeisha Holloway is on suicide watch after allegedly plowing through nearly 40 people killing a mother of three on the busy Las Vegas Strip, all while in the car. It looked like she wasnt even trying to stop the car. She had both of her hands on the wheel and was looking straightforward. Reporter the Police Report stating holloway described a stressful period of time where she was trying to rest and sleep inside her vehicle with her daughter. But kept getting run off by security. Overnight, her cousin saying holloway would never do Something Like this on purpose. None of it made any sense, just didnt add up to who she is. She love her family. She loved her daughter. She loved god. This was just traumatic for everybody. Reporter once a resident for oregon working for the Forest Service for a Program Designed to help at risk youth she was touted as a case study even receiving a role model award in 2012 speaking about her experience. I beat the odds and was the first in my immediate family to graduate high school. Reporter poic putting out the statement its hard to believe lakeshia did this. She was part of our program. Holloway was emotionless when she was arrested sunday night. Her daughter, now in protective custody while Police Search for her father. Holloways deadly ride ending in this casino parking lot. She left the scene and left her toddler within the vehicle and contacted a valet parker and advised that she had ran over some individuals and requested the valet parker to call 911. Reporter there are reports this morning that she changed her name in the last couple of months, now she changed are it to paris paradise morton and, george and lara, you may remember investigators initially said they had a hard time learning about her past and that might be part of the reason why. All right, kayna, thank you so much. Just does not add up. So much promise before. Okay, well move on to more trouble for chipotle. The cdc investigating another e. Coli outbreak linked to the chain. This one in three states coming after that outbreak in november sickened dozens and abcs linsey davis here with the latest. This is one of five disease outbreaks the burrito chain has had since july. The cdc says the latest bacteria has a different genetic fingerprint. This morning chipotle is at the center of another e. Coli outbreak. The cdc is investigating a second outbreak of the virus affecting customers in three states, five people say they got sick after eating at the burrito giant in the last two weeks of november. I just felt like i take the same risk no matter where you go to eat. I dont think ill be eating chipotle at all. Reporter this is just the latest blow to chipotle. Two weeks ago more than 140 Boston College students were sickened with norovirus after eating here and earlier this year, 52 people became sick in nine different states after falling ill with e. Coli. Back then as a precaution, the restaurant closed several of its stores to clean and discard ingredients before reopening. Spokesman for chipotle tells abc news it was not unexpected saying we have indicated before that we expected that we may see additional cases stemming from this. Since this issue began, we have completed a comprehensive reassessment of our food safety programs adding, were confident that we can achieve i level of food safety risk that is near zero. Chipotle has already made massive changes in response and is now centralizing the preparation of some vegetables and also moving away from its use of locally sourced ingredients which the company often used as a selling point to differentiate itself from other fast food chains and once again chipotles stock dropped significantly yesterday in the wake of this more than 3 and while Health Officials dont know what the culprit is they think it likely is produce. Its a real tradeoff on the local sourcing. Exactly and really unfortunate. This was something that was really significant for them that people liked. Absolutely. Linsey, thank you. Now to a major Security Breach at one of the nations busiest airports just as fly for the holiday, this morning, we are learning about a man who managed to get on to the runway at jfk in new york city shutting down part of the airport and david kerley is at Reagan National with details. Good morning, david. Reporter good morning. This happened at the American Airlines terminal. A man seen walking across a taxiway. Were just learning about it this morning. It happened nine days ago. Now, according to our station wabc, a cargo worker even went up to the man and asked him if he had an airport badge and used profanity and said dont say anything and kept walking toward the terminal and disappeared. He got over a piece of fence that didnt have sensors which is alarming for a new york congressman. We could not allow that there be any weak links. The days we live in, we have zero room for error. Reporter now this is not the first breach at jfk and it is politicians, the Port Authority still looking for this man, looking at closed circuit video to try to figure out where he is and where he went. Yeah, concerning to say the least. Thank you. Now dan has the mornings other top stories starting with news from space, i understand. Thats right, good morning, everybody. Well start with a milestone accomplishment in space travel. The private company spacex launched an unmanned rocket from Cape Canaveral sending several satellites into orbit and made history when the rocket flew back to the launch spice and the booster landed upright. Reusable rockets like this could dramatically lower the cost of space travel paving the way for space tourism. We have learned that one of the six American Service members killed in that suicide bombing in afghanistan on monday was a new York City Police detective. Joseph lemm was on his second deployment in afghanistan with the air national guard. The taliban which claimed responsibility for the attack made significant gains in recent fighting. A grand jury in texas decided not to indict any in the death of sandra bland. As you may remember she was pulled over last summer and later died in her cell. Investigators say she hanged herself. Her family, however, has filed a wrongful death lawsuit. Look at this. Police dash cam out of michigan capturing a joyride in progress. When the driver spins out, the officer is surprised to see who gets out and runs, its an 8yearold girl and her 13yearold brother. He was the one driving. The car belongs to their fathers girlfriend. That teenager, the 13yearold now facing several charges. And finally on a lighter note some new numbers suggest hallowed christmas traditions may not be fading. First christmas cards, down by 1. 5 billion since 2002. According to the u. S. Postal service and nearly 50 decline and then mistletoe. A survey says only one in seven people shared a kiss last year. George is always telling us with poll numbers you got to dig below the top line number and we did that and found out 1 out of 50 said theyd like to kiss a colleague under it and 1 out of 100 said they wanted to kiss boss. Hr executives are applauding these numbers. You needed a poll. 1 out of 50 want to kiss their cocorkers. Just 1 out of 50. Thats right. She did it, ali. Not me. I made my selection. Sorry, george. Sorry, ali. Sorry sorry. Can you recover from this . Well try to move on. Its fairly serious. The suspension for one of the nfls top stars, thats the giants Odell Beckham jr. Out for one game for this vicious helmettohelmet hit in this loss to the panthers. Hes been widely blasted for that dirty play, you see it right there but his team says theres more to the story and reporter Odell Beckham is after one season in the league and famous for those acrobatic onehanded catches being vilified slammed for taking dangerous shots at an opponent and the controversy is just beginning to unfold. This is the play that sacked Odell Beckham jr. The new york giants star diving into a pile, slamming into Carolina Panthers cornerback josh norman headtohead. You end players careers like that. He came back and was hunting and malicious in every way. Reporter beckham got three unsportsmanlike penalties and the nfl suspending him for one game saying his actions placed a fellow player at unnecessary risk. After the game, beckham saying his competitive spirit took over. Competing against one of the best teams in the league and anybody who has a passion for football will go as hard as they can. Reporter one dits securing him for being a sore loser. He behaved like a complete jerk. Reporter but his team meets the eye. Giants sources telling espn panthers fans yelled antigay slurs and members of the panthers holding baseball bats on the field allegingly pointing them at beckham and these created an edgy tone for the game. There are people in the Giants Organization who believe that Odell Beckham jr. Felt threatened by the actions of at least one panther who was carrying a bat and helped incite him. Reporter but the panthers denying the slurs and the threats. Their spokesman saying bats on the field are tradition and nothing new. Panthers players showing others carrying bats saying theyre used as motivational tools symbolizing bringing the wood on the field. Now, according to espn, beckham has appealed the suspension which is expected to be heard wednesday and ruled upon before next sundays giants game but many, guy, saying that beckham went too far with this and that not likely to turn around, is it . I dont think so, but you never know. It was out of control. It was watching it. Nonstop. Stunning. Ryan, thank you very much. Moving on now to scary moments at seaworld in orlando. Dozens trapped for hours, 200 feet above the ground in a ride called the sky tower. Abcs reena ninan has the story. Reporter a sky high scare at seaworld.

In a pickle. If youre in a pickle, weve got the answers for you, george. That is all coming up. But well begin with that embarrassing end to Miss Universe. People still trying to figure out what went wrong when steve harvey crowned the runnerup. Well talk to one of the pageant judges, perez hilton will talk to lara, first t. J. Holmes with the latest. Reporter we got to give steve a break. Live television surrounded by all these beautiful women and, well, that may describe a typical day at gma for you, george, some are saying, the moment might have gotten to him. Now we got all these theories people cant accept it. Its maybe is as simple as he made a mistake. Miss universe 2015 is colombia. Reporter how could he make such a mistake . I have toapologize. The first runnerup is colombia. Miss universe 2015 is philippines. Reporter this morning some on social media are suggesting there may be more to the story. The sentiment echoed by thousands of others on twitter. I generally dont buy conspiracy theories but this is the most attention the Miss Universe pageant has gotten since, well, ever. Harvey made no excuses and repeatedly and emphatically said it was his fault alone. I didnt read first runnerup on the card. Niecy nash who posted this with fellow judge perez hilton. People are going crazy in here. Oh, my gosh. Reporter speculation is that the teleprompter could have led to the gaffe but miss australia says seesaw with her own eyes the teleprompter got it right. All the girls saw philippines, you may now take your first walk as Miss Universe. Reporter while both contestants handled themselves with dignity and poise, the country of colombia is fighting mad. The hashtag that translates the crown must be respected is trending and a colombiian Law Firm Says two of its attorneys are filing suit saying the crown is an acquired right that cannot be taken away from us. Even miss colombias fellow countrywoman Sofia Vergara is getting in on the act with a caption that translates, the queen anyway. Some are floating the suggestion crown, lara, no word on that just yet. All right, t. J. , well, joining us now exclusively is perez hilton, one of the judges. I have to ask what were you and the other judges thinking when you heard the name miss colombia called . My first thought was, wow, this is rigged because i knew how i voted and i knew how all the other judges voted. All of us voted for philippines to win so we were in shock and then when we found out that there was a mistake, i was like, this is brilliant. They did this on purpose for publicity. I mean thats how my mind works. Well, youre not alone in that. But let me ask you, you were there, what do you think went wrong on that stage . Well, you know, since the pageant there have been reports that steve missed part of rehearsals, that he was out gambling and drinking and having a good time. He made a mistake but he also could have been tired and hung over. Job well. Period. I mean, but weve heard theres a tele3r0789er that you teleprompter. From your Vantage Point because ive been a judge and ive been the host of miss america and i know its live tv. Fluid. But did you see anything that could have gone wrong that made this happen . Well, there is a prompter, but the moment where he crowns the winner isnt on the prompter because that moment, they dont want the other girls to know, so it was just on his card and he read it incorrectly. Right. Well, as i said, though, i mean just to say for steve that is a Live Television event that is happening, its very, very fluid. Did you get a chance, perez, to talk to steve afterwards . No, he disappeared as soon as everything went down and it was crazy for us in the theater after the broadcast ended screaming and emmitt smith came up to me saying somebody was shot outside the theater. We didnt have all the information yet on exactly what had happened on the strip, so it was pandemonium inside. Yeah, i would imagine so. Im sure the fans were very confused as were the contestants. What do you think of the idea of joint crown, sharing it . You know, i actually think that miss philippines whom we all voted for deserves to win, won, but losing is the best thing that ever happened to colombia, so in one sense she truly is the winner, although, as a judge and im looking at everything that happened, i see her posting on instagram that shes the true winner, theres a reason, many reasons she didnt win, congratulations to philippines. Wow, perez hilton, there you go. I guess in some ways everyone is a winner. Speaks his mind. He sure does. Keeping it real on tuesday morning. Coming up here well talk to the u. S. Marshal leading the manhunt for the most wanted teen in america for ethan couch and his mother.

And we are back now with the intensifying manhunt for ethan couch on the run with his mom and u. S. Marshals calling it a major case. Well speak with the marshal leading the hunt. First abcs Clayton Sandell has the latest. Reporter this morning authorities are asking the public to be on the lookout for this ford truck that belongs to ethan couchs mother, tanya. We certainly believe theyre together. Shes helping him and shes assisting him. Reporter a u. S. Marshals and mother and son. Sources close to the investigation telling abc news its assumed that ethan may try to change his appearance. Hes not the kind of person that rehabilitates who learns his less on. Reporter he was 16 when he killed four people driving drunk in 2013, convicted and sentenced to only probation after an expert testified couch suffered from affluenza, a condition caused by his healthy upbringing preventing him from knowing right from wrong. It is not an officially recognized diagnosis. I have never seen a case that sparked such outrage, that sparked such emotion from people. Four totally innocent people were taken away in a second by the irresponsible actions of this juvenile. Reporter Officials Say this social media video posted earlier this month shows couch at a party near a beer pong table. The sheriff believes that possible parole violation is what caused couch now 18 to flee. But i think that was the once that video surfaced. Reporter this morning couchs face is on these wanted posters and now a 5,000 reward. He belongs in big boy jail, in adult prison. Hes always avoided it. Maybe let him know money and privilege dont buy you out of every circumstance. Reporter for good morning america, Clayton Sandell, abc news, ft. Worth, texas. Thanks, clayton. Joined by rick taylor, one of the agents heading up the hunt. Thanks for joining us this morning. Whats the latest . Well, weve been working over the past several days with Tarrant County and the District Attorneys Office and running down leads. Have there been any sightings of ethan or his mom. Weve been receiving a lot of tips that have come in all over the country to include a couple that were international. But, you know, were quickly going through those ruling out those tips that are, you know, not valid. Pretty sure theyre still together. That is our belief, yes. In right now, if, indeed, she has helped him escape his probation probation . What kind of trouble could she be facing. The child charges could be filed against her and Tarrant County is looking at that. It doesnt help her case to be assisting him and its not to say that its only the mother. If the investigation shows that other family members or associates, friends or anyone is offering support to ethan, they will likely be charged as well. Do you have any information to make you believe ha . We have information that, you know, some folks are cooperating and we always keep that in the back of our mind that they may not be completely truthful with us. But as that information comes out and the investigation leads to that, yeah, its very likely that warrants could come out for anyone that helps them out. What should members of the public do if they see either ethan or his mommy do you consider them armed or dangerous in any way. Violent fugitive, but any information, any sightings that they potentially see of him should definitely call the tip lines or their local Law Enforcement literally within minutes of receiving a valid tip, we could have our task force there on scene to arrest ethan. And finally what would you say to ethan or his mom if theyre watching right now . Well, i dont know that theres anything really i could say to ethan but i think i would like to say is to the families of the victims is that were doing this for you and were going to find ethan and were going to bring him back to Tarrant County. Marshal, thank you very much. Thank you. Coming up, look who is here, were going to talk to ginger live. Dont go anywhere. I love you. Love you too. One minute. Hi. Hi dad. We need to do this.

Last night trump used a sexually derogatory term to describe how clinton lost to president obama back in 2008. Meanwhile, clinton is refusing to apologize for her recent comment claiming that isis has been using video of trump to recruit new fighters. Trump told abcs Jon Karl Clinton is lying. She said donald trump is on a video and theyre dr. Bessering the video you know, et there really is no argument beyond the video. They are using lots of things, i imagine, to recruit but they didnt use me on a video and im not sure they used me at all. The Clinton Campaign says clinton wasnt referring to a specific video but referring to trump being used on social media. The woman plowing a car along the Las Vegas Strip killing a mother of three and injuring dozens of other people. Weve now learned that Lakeisha Holloways drivers license was recently suspended.

Tipped her head back and gasped her first breath and it was like, oh, thank goodness. He definitely helped us. I felt calm in the fact that helping her breathe and stuff like that because that was just terrifying. As you can see theres good news here, baby anne is home and doing fine.

I could just see some family members kind of filing towards the front of the stage and some of my friends wouldnt look me in the eye and i was like, happened and my stomach just dropped and completely shocked and scared and afraid of everything. So as you saw family walking up to the stage, though, was there just a glimpse of a moment . Did you have did you go, oh, my gosh, maybe this is happening.

Great to see you so happy. Congratulations. Thank you so much. You can catch peta on dancing with the stars live tour going on right now. Byebye, guys. Catwalk to regulate the weight of runway models. France just did it that passed a law that bans excessively thin models and public Health Officials are urging the same for models in the u. S. And reena ninan has more. Reporter they are the epitome of glamour, the models that define style and beauty. But now the fashion industry is under fire from critics who say that most models are dangerously thin. The modeling industry definitely encouraging women often explicitly so to maintain extreme thin frames. Reporter in a strong new editorial from the american journal of public health, expert experts and eating disorder professionals say the industry body standard is hazardous and encouraging problems like eating disorders and body dysmorphia and right runway models are by definition and professional necessity starving to death. Theyre urging the u. S. To regulate and set a standard bmi, just last week france passed such a law requiring model to have a doctors note proving that they are healthy. We have statistics such as 70 of adolescents report they define the ideal body image as being what they see in fashion magazines. Reporter record says that the average model who makes it big on the International Stage has a bmi of 14. 2 points below the World Health Organizations definition of starvation. She wants a u. S. Occupational safety and Health Administration to require all models to have a bmi of 18 and above. A bmi of 14 or below is not naturally skinny. You are at great risk at any time of the day for cardiac arrest. Reporter for good morning america, reena ninan, abc news, new york. And joining me now is founder of the Model Alliance sara ziff, former model, longtime model. What do you think of this idea, legislation for the catwalk. Im glad this issue is being taken seriously. I think too often models concerns are trivialized and dismissed. People say, oh, you know, youre a fashion model. How hard can it be but professional models have literally died trying to achieve this standard of beauty, this body image and it goes beyond just the models working in the industry. This is a powerful industry that has an influence on our culture and on the women and girls who look up to models so from your perspective somebody in the industry, do you think that legislation can change the way things are . Yeah, well, so weve seen in france theyve just passed this bill that calls for Health Checks and thats something that i in the Model Alliance support. Unfortunately, its we get pushback from different stakeholders in the industry. Do you think if there was legislation models would say, x amount or internal pressure as an individual to be thin . I think that the industry is not solely responsible, okay. Thats what i was i think that there are multiple sources of pressure, but Everyone Needs to do their part because i think that we all want to promote a healthy ideal for the girls working in the industry and the people who look up to these models. Yeah, i was going to say girls like my daughter who think the beall end all is on that catwalk. And the industry has not been good at regulating itself. Thats why all these other countries have stepped up and i think the u. S. Needs to do more, as well. Thank you for stepping up and speaking out. Sara, thank you very much. Thanks so much. George. Thank you, lara. Robin has a big special tonight. Her look back at all the big moments that define 2015 and the people who inspired us most. Heres a sneak peek at her heroes of the year.

No, no, its not going to happen. Steve harvey is not going to come and apologize, youre good. Yeah, what was about her that made her stand out. When it comes to competitions its about consistency, great thats what it comes down to in every competition, she was great and thorough in every single this was a spumoni cake but what you show us is how to do a slightly simpler version sans the polka dots. Surprise cake, chocolate cake with buttermilk. Anybody can do it with a box cake mix and my tip is that in the back it says to use water, dont use water, use coffee or use stout beer to cut the sweetness of the cake. You can add some mini chocolate chips to add little bursts of chocolate in there and then when you come to the icing, definitely add a sour element. Using the canned icing, add some cream cheese, add sour cream, add some citrus and almond extract and buttermilk and that will cut all that super sweetness. One of the rookie errors i make all the time, on the rare occasions when ive ever baked i pull it out of the oven and i want to eat it so badly i try to away and it makes a mess. Dont do that. You need to chill your cake before you even put the icing on. I hike to throw it in the freezer for like 30 minutes just to get it nice and solid then i get my icing on and goes on very smoothly and then im just going to cover it with fongadant and cut ribbons using a pastry cutter or pizza wheel at home then youll attach your ribbons onto the fondant covered cake and made marbleized stars with this and rolled it out into a sheet and have the stars and ready to go on the cake and used a little crisco and paint the back of the stars and we just pop it on the cake and itll stick right to the fondant.

Good morning america is point break about to come crashing into theaters all kinds of energy. You know, the movie follows an fbi agent who cracks a team of extreme athletes who pull off a string of corporate heists and t. J. Holmes went to some extremes of his own to catch up with its star. Hey, t. J. They did wingsuit flying and skydiving, surfing. You know what they did for me for this story, none of that. Met me in manhattan and climbed a wall that seemed pretty tall to me. 3200 feet of climbing. Tallest waterfall in the world. Reporter the death defying climax to point break. Youve got nowhere to go. And racing to the top, hollywood breakout star edgar ramirez. I was literally hanging from the highest waterfall on earth 3,000 feet above the ground. Reporter not quite 3,000 feet but close enough today at the Sports Center at chelsea pier in manhattan where i sat down with him. It was one of the most extreme things that ive heifer done in my life. Reporter in the film he plays bodhi. Robin hood. Youre going to steal it. No. Youre going to give it back. Reporter climbing and the wingsuits. You looked like a badman. Here youre showing up in the jack and the boots but tell me, in real life are you anywhere close to an extreme athlete . No, theres only a handful of people capable of doing what youll see in the film and in no way would i compare whatever baby steps i made in each one of the sports to what they do. You know, i was watching them as they were performing these stunts and just to be, you know, on top of the angel falls or just being hanging, that was pretty intense. Reporter any close calls. There was a moment where the shape of the rock was too inclined for me and i freaked out. I still had a lot of practice but i did get i really like it. It centers you. I got the best teacher who is chris charmin, number one climber in the world. Reporter yep, this guy, i hes one of the films expert stunt doubles. Now hes showing me the ropes. You got it, man. Man, point break 2 starring t. J. Holmes. But according to these guys its not all about that summit selfie. Coming up to a virgin wall thats never been climbed and looking up and imagining the line. So its not really about getting to the top. Its about how beautifully you get to where you need to get. All right. This opens on Christmas Day. Reimagination of the point break cult classic. If you all were going to pick one of those which sport would it be, surfing, rock climbing. Cowabunga. Surfing. Ill do the rock climbing with you. Youre pretty good. We should go rock climbing. Is there an option to sit on the couch and eat the cake. No, theres not. Extreme eating is not part of the movie, man. It should be. Thanks, t. J. Have a good day, everyone. This is a channel 7 good morning everyone. Its 8 56 right now on this tuesday december 22nd. Im michelle charlesworth. Topping headlines at this hour, new video of a scary scene inside a bronx supermarket. Thats a man opening fire on someone inside of sea town on southern boulevard. The store is filled with customers. When the bullets started flying in the checkout line. A 21yearold man believed to be the target was shot three times. Hes in the hospital this morning. The shooter is still on the loose. Lets get a check on the commute with heather orourke. Hi michelle, back to mass transit, we had earlier problems with path trains. New Jersey Transit was cross honoring, they are no longer. Delays hoboken to 33rd, hoboken to the world trade center.

Sending over to bill evans. Good morning, michelle. Everybody grab your rain gear if youre headed out now and at any time in the day, youre going to need that umbrella. Maybe the light raincoat.
