Police tell nbc 10 news 23yearold david mill bourn posted threats to kill cops. He calmly confessed to police when they arrested him at his home yesterday. He admitted he made threat against the chester city officers and their families, that he posted that threat, and he intended and hoped to carry it out. He was unarmed and didnt appear to have access to guns. According to investigators millbourn made the threats because Police Arrested a 17yearold girl who made threatening posts earlier this week. Her threats called for shooting black students at Chichester High School and at a community school. We do not believe they knew each other. The Cyber Crime Team tracked down the 17yearold. That search warrant led to an address, we then assembled a team of over 30 Law Enforcement officers that went to that address, surrounded that address. The delaware District Attorney says the 17yearold confessed she acted on a dare, she got through social media. Its a new form of swatting when someone uses technology to hide their identity and make false threats of violence attempting to get s. W. A. T. Teams involved. In this case what happened is they opened up a fake account and instagram and put the threatening message on the fake account, then shut it down with the hope they are not traced. The District Attorney tells me that the 17yearold is remorseful and will be charged as a juvenile. Reporting live in chester, harry hairston, nbc 10 news.

Trump is boycotting the fox news debate after he has feuded with the Network Anchor megyn kelly. Jim schultz thinks that trump is making himself look pet you lent to voters. But trump could be helping himself by avoiding a poor debate performance. Its part of a do no harm strategy it could help, he is leading in the polls and hes not a very good debater and he from time to time says things that could get himself in trouble. So if its part of the larger strategy to keep out of trouble and keep maintain his lead then it might be a good thing. He also thinks the rest of the field will use this trumless debate as a chance for more time to showcase their ideas. Thats especially true for ted cruz who is leading in iowa earlier this month.

A chance after snow shower in the afternoon, may be a couple of rain showers especially new jersey, and then high temperatures struggling to reach 40 degrees, thats the coldest day in quite a while.

Their message is that most people, 7 out of 10 they say, will spend less on premiums than on their cell phone bill. But for people like starlis smith who was uninsure forward seven years its not that simple. Why doesnt the 75 plan that the Obama Administration kept touting to us work for you . Worth the peace of mind with the deductible. What was it. 6,000. 6,000.

Decision 2016 now, the republican president ial candidates, they will debate in over three hours from now. Up like all of their other debates there will be no fireworks from donald trump. The frontrunner is boycotting the fox news debate. Steve handelsman joins us live from des moines. Could trump change his mind and decide to attend because if he doesnt some experts predict that his absence will hurt his campaign. Reporter he could change his mind, sure. I think you know, if he made peace with fox and they made peace with him and he had some spin he won, he could do it. But i got to tell you, there is no expectation here at the debate site of the Iowa Event Center in des moines that trump is going to do that. They already are preparing for his rally across town at drake university. A couple of the candidates at least huckabee and some others say they are going to do what they have to and enjoy the trump spotlight he is apparently inviting other republicans who want to take part in his debate to join him there. Its going to be a vivid display, if these things go off as looks like they will go off simultaneously at one time the debate over here and trump here. Of not just the divisions and the Republicans Party but how powerful donald trump is. He writes his own rules and he has different rules for des moines before this caucus. This is getting interesting. Speaking of the other candidates who do you think stands to benefit the most with donald trump not being on the stage tonight . Reporter a couple things. Let me get back to what you said before about what this is going to help trump or hurt. Who does it help and hurt who is not named donald trump . Youve got cruz who is going to be center stage because hes the one polling second, and so they are not going to have an empty podium to try to embarrass trump. They are going to put ted cruz in the center, and that puts him in the center of fire by all of the other candidates who want to take over from cruz the number two spot, the top challenger position to don at trump. That could be marco rubio for example. A lot think that rubio who is polling third in iowa, pretty good debater is going to go after cruz. Thats not going to be good for cruz. Could be good for rubio. Donald trump, does it help or hurt him . It looks to be a gamble. A lot of republicans i spoke to today at least some i spoke to today in iowa who are not trump backers are peeved, but trump backers like the idea, keith, because look what it does. It has him protecting his lead, it makes him look tough and strong and leaves his people like cruz and rubio open to be attacked and him free from attack. So stay tuned. A couple of competing events from here in iowa. A lot to look at. Always great hearing from you. Thank you. You can count on nbc 10 for coverage of the Iowa Caucuses on monday, nbc 10s lauren mayk is heading to iowa to report from the campaign trail.

What a change from what we saw just a few days ago. We get a little bit of melting every day. Remember, refreezes again at night. That will happen again tonight. Were tracking snow showers that may move through parts of the area tomorrow. And then a warmup thats going to move through the entire area as we head through the weekend and into next week. We have just partly cloudy skies right now and nice sunset. 41 degrees, the wind fairly light and is going to get lighter as we go through the night. And the temperature not dropping a lot. In philadelphia. But by 5 00 a. M. Down to 29 degrees. Certainly cold enough to ice up anything that melted during the day. So the rest of the area will be below freezing as well. So already at the freezing mark in quakertown at 32. 34 in bluebell, dropped in coatesville to 34. These are live updated temperatures. 37 degrees in reading and allentown. 36 at kane net square, 38 in washington township. 39 in trenton, 40 in wrightstown and mount holly and millville and woodbine, lewis, delaware 39. As you saw earlier there is no snow left in extreme southern delaware and south jersey. Near the shore. You can see a little band of clouds moving through now. This is a little more impressive band back to the west. This thing is pretty much fallen apart as any snow flurries are concerned. This area looks like its increasing a little bit with some rain showers at the leading edge, and in the cold air we have snow showers. So thats the system coming through tomorrow. Its a cold front, and watch what happens to the temperatures. Okay, we go below freezing during the night tonight. The morning rush, yes, its below freezing. Could be icy spots. And then temperatures go back up during the day. So were in the upper 30s near 40 degrees, so even if we get snow showers, just pretty much melt unless it came down really, really hard. Could see some rain showers ahead of it. Just like what is happening now. And we could get a little bit of a burst of snow for a few minutes. Thats what a snow shower is as opposed to snow flurry. And then by the afternoon rush looks like its pretty much all gone. And then we have a pretty nice weekend ahead. Mostly cloudy tonight with the refreeze late, 28 for the low in philadelphia, 22 north and west. Tomorrow the wind the main issue.
