All of the cops were shot. I just saw cops bending over. There had to be five or six cops shot down. Officers eventually used a bomb to kill him. But the damage was already done. Rapid gunshots fired. The Police Officers standing by me pushed me to get out of the way. My legs got a little scars on it where he pushed me out of the way. If he didnt push me, i probably would have got shot. It was at the end of a peaceful rally involving the Police Involved shootings. The organizers of that rally condemned all of this weeks violence.

But those plans obviously have changed based on what happened in dallas. We will be here. We expect to hear from her this hour. We, of course, will bring you what she said coming up at 6 00. Live at the pennsylvania Convention Center, drew smith, nbc 10 news. Drew, well continue to check back in with you. The shooting prompted donald trump to cancel a trip to miami today.

Rowers on the river were certainly sweating it out on the schuylkill today. I hope shes wearing sunscreen. The First Alert Weather Team is tracking some rain. Well have more on that. We get the latest from chief meteorologist glenn hurricane schwartz. Glenn is this. Yeah, some people are already cooling off with the rain in the area. There are two areas of thunderstorms, both pretty much in new jersey. One that was the most severe looks like its weakening. The darker colors with the lightning, those are older lightning strikes. Were not seeing the white bolts anymore, so that means that this storm is weakening across the Atlantic City expressway. But theres still enough lightning around, getting close to the beaches, that its time to tell your friends and relatives to get off the beach. Because you dont want to get anywhere near the lightning. That storm going past Egg Harbor City now, galloway, right in the middle of it. The other one, this is the Delaware River here, so this is in hunterton county. This cell is not moving very much. And so that is a flood threat. Thats why theres a flood advisory until 8 30 this evening for that one. Another flood advisory for the one we just showed you, just west of Atlantic City. This area meanwhile in Chester County, berks county, continues to weaken. Its more in the way of light to moderate rain right now. There are more showers back to the west. They will be affecting us later tonight and even into the morning. We have the threat of some showers. Its not going to be nearly as warm when you factor in this rain thats going to be developing during the day tomorrow. As you can see, we have that possibility, especially in delaware and pennsylvania. Not as much in new jersey at the jersey shore tomorrow morning. But well be getting it later in the day. More on that timing with the rest of the forecast in a few minutes. Looking forward to that, glenn, thank you. Septa says relief is on the way for thousands of passengers who rely on regional rail. Its been a week since septa announced that a third of its fleet would have to be taken out of service. Now theyve come up with a better way to get people where they need to go. Nbc 10s Randy Gyllenhaal joins us live at the septa headquarters for the details. Reporter keith, weve got good news and bad news for commuters. The good news is that septa has actually obtained some borrowed train cars from places like amtrak and new jersey transit. But the bad news is that the fix could take a bit longer than we expected, because repairing those train cars has proven a bit tricky. To fix septas fleet of silver liner train cars, crews may be forced to entirely replace hundreds of defective steel beams. A simple repair would have been easier, but now theres concern that might not be enough. At this point, its not looking good for a repair or a quick return to service. Reporter that means it could take until labor day to get those cars back in service. Its all been causing massive commuter headaches that could get worse before they get better. We apologize for the inconvenience and are grateful for your patience. Reporter today septas general manager revealed some good news. Theyll begin leasing rain cars from amtrak, maryland and new jersey transit, adding about 1,700 more seats. Its all an effort to fill the gaps until those faulty steel beams can be replaced. I also would like to say that were not done scouring the country for additional rail cars. Reporter in the meantime, septa has added more parking along the broad street line, express buses may also be added to the mix, and even uber is stepping up with discounts to septa riders. Be on the lookout for a brandnew train schedule to be released on septas website this coming sunday night. In the meantime, septa does warn that next week could actually be a bit more busier because fewer people are on holiday vacation. Randy gyllenhaal, nbc 10 news. Right now, at 5 00, our first look at a man wanted for trying to kidnap a pair of women in newark on the fourth of july. Take a look. His name is joseph ruj. Police identified him from tips that came in after releasing surveillance video. Call Newark Police if you know where he may be. Camden police have arrested a man who they believe is responsible for an arson spree that damaged more than a dozen buildings in just a few days. Carl ricks jr. Has been charged with 14 counts of aggravated arson. It started saturday and lasted into monday july 4th, destroying mostly vacant buildings across the city. Seven firefighters were injured but they are expected to be okay. Next at 5 00, we go live to dallas for an update on the tragic ambush that killed five Police Officers. Plus, it will not be smooth sailing for some new jersey drivers. Why their local road projects could hit a bump in the road. We continue to follow the latest developments on the dallas ambush. Five officers were killed and wounded seven others following what was supposed to be a peaceful protest. According to police he had no criminal history and was often described as a loner. While searching johnsons home in the past few minutes, we learned that investigators found bombmaking materials, a number of weapons, as well as a journal of combat tactics. Detectives are now analyzing that journal. Sources tell nbc news theyve found no ties between johnson and any extremist groups. Nbcs jay gray is live in dallas tonight. He joins us with more on this investigation. Jay, talk to us about the shooters family. Where do they fit in with the investigation . Are they cooperating with police . Reporter rosemary, at this point, the police say its too early in the investigation to share any of that information. We know that he did live with his mother in a modest neighborhood. And were told that after he returned from afghanistan, serving a year of deployment there, that he was withdrawn. That neighbors said they didnt see much of him, didnt know much about him. You talk about what was found inside the home there, again, he was living with his mother, the ammunition and ballistic material, he was carrying out the attack here. They are processing, they are analyzing the information inside that journal. Important to point out, its a personal journal. His own journal of combat tactics. And so that leads investigators to believe he had been planning some type of attack for quite some time. Sure a lot to process. 24 hours since it happened last night. Jay, whats next for this community . Are there any rallies, any vigils planned . Reporter yeah, keith, i think well see several unfold. We did see the first today around noon here. And hundreds showed up to be a part of that, including the mayor of dallas, along with the police chief here. They said it was important to be together. A lot of people said that they grew strength from being with others who were struggling to understand that. Thats a struggle that continues. Not only in this city, which is rocked, but across the country right now. I talked to dallas Police Officers who have been at work since the attack last night. They say they are still on the highest alert at this point, and concerned that the threat here may not be over with just yet. So this is a city still very much on edge, keith. Jay gray live for us in dallas tonight. Thank you. Thank you, jay. Dallas, of course, is some 1,500 miles away from philadelphia. The Ripple Effect clearly being felt within the Philadelphia Police department tonight. The reason why, philly police will now work in two officer teams. The commissioner said the department is looking at how it polices protests. With the Democratic NationalConvention Just weeks away, the secret service said it wont change its plans. Transit police are leaving assignments up to supervisors. Well do what we have to do to keep protesters safe, but most importantly to keep everybody in the city safe. The secret service respects the rights of the people to protest. As long as the protest is not directly impacting the venue, we dont get involved with it. What happened last night hits us all right to the core. And i think i really think that the entire public feels that way. Its not just the policing community, its all of america feels that pain tonight. At least one protest is planned for tonight in philadelphia. Police say theyve been in contact with the protest organizers. Faith leaders are calling for prayer and peace after these attacks. Well hear from those who are attending the a. M. E. Church conference going on right now in philadelphia. Thats coming up in the next half hour. Now, your nbc 10 first alert neighborhood weather with chief meteorologist glenn hurricane schwartz. Well, another hot day out there. But not enough to stop these people from hitting the boardwalk in Atlantic City earlier today. Of course, it wasnt as hot there. Hopefully they took a dip in the ocean. Thats a great way to be at the shore. But there is a thunderstorm pretty close to Atlantic City right now. Theres another one not too far north of trenton. As we take a look at this one, were starting to see some lightning strikes near the beaches. So everybody should be away from the water there. Atlantic city expressway, well, its getting pretty wet here. Galloway township, down to egg harbor, and some of this rain is, of course, very heavy. Right along the new jersey not new jersey turnpike, new jersey avenue near the Atlantic City expressway. Now, we also have another cell up in parts of bucks county, newtown, up to buckingham, this is the Delaware River here. Most of the activity is on the new jersey side. Hunterton county. We have a relatively new storm. This is near morristown, new jersey, not moving very fast, but also doesnt have lightning with it at this point. This area was pretty impressive a couple of hours ago. And it continues to weaken in Chester County and parts of berks county. And in delaware, we have one pretty strong cell in central delaware, and some stuff in maryland, that could potentially move to the dover area during the next few hours. But right now, a pretty heavy shower right along route 1, just north of chestwold in central delaware. Theres more thats going to be coming, mostly into new jersey this evening. Then were going to get a break overnight tonight. And then were going to be seeing more showers and storms develop tomorrow. The temperature, up to 93 degrees today. About 91 tomorrow. Three days in a row makes it an official heat wave. And were going to be seeing even hotter weather coming next week. But over the weekend, a clear choice, best weather day, thats sunday. Lower humidity, along with a little bit lower temperatures. No rain. We do expect showers and storms on saturday, with the temperature of a few degrees cooler than today. And then another day on monday, with very low humidity. But then things change. We start to heat up again tuesday. And by wednesday, its really oppressive at 93. So this is another heat wave coming thursday and friday and saturday. Mid90s, could get more dangerous heat by then. More than three dozen people are facing charges after a drug bust targeting Atlantic City. Prosecutors annoyanced the results of the operations today. 19 people were already arrested. Investigators are still looking for 22 more. Authorities say the group ran a significant heroin and cocaine trafficking operation in the Atlantic City area. New jersey is putting the brakes on several transportation projects for at least a week. The state is trying to figure out how to come up with money for those projects after the democratled senate scrapped any votes to hike the gas tax. A 1. 7 million project on route 38 between routes 295 and 206 is among those on the chopping block. In camden county, the same goes for a 1 million project to repair the nickelson bridge over east atlantic road. The cuts are just limited to roadways. Multiple projects to make improvements along the river line could also be shelved. It looks like 10 million worth of projects to enhance rail service at marine terminals may also have to wait.

And Dallas Police officer patrick zamaripa leaves behind a wife and 2yearold daughter. Investigators say the lone gunman was working as an aide for mentally challenged children and adults before last nights shooting. The Dallas Police chief explained Micah Johnsons motive. He said he was upset about the recent police shootings. The suspect said he was upset at white people. The suspect stated he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers.

It does not take away any of the issues we continue to raise. Reporter in dallas five officers were killed at the hands of a sniper who used the protest to target them. In this moment, i certainly want to say that violence against Law Enforcement can never be tolerated. Reporter but some question if protests fuel an antipolice sentiment. Its not been antipolice.

Reporter a distinction tyler said culls out a more deeply rooted culture and allows them to take issue with what happened in louisiana, minnesota, and dallas at the same time.
