Find out. Good afternoon. Im josh benson. And im stacy. This is first at 4 00. Now the latest from the cowardly terrorist attacks in brussels. Three men Police Believe could be involved in the deadly attacks. This is a picture caught on an airport surveillance camera. The two men wearing dark shirts are believed to have blown themselves up in the attack. The man next to them is believed to be on the run and is being mustnted by belgian authorities. Here is mark to tell us who is claiming responsibility for the attacks. Reporter brussels went into lock down this morning after a series of explosions rocked the citys airport and subway in what appeared to be a coordinated attack. When we felt a small blast of air, and we heard some thudding in the distance, the lights turned off, the engine turned off, and a message came saying there had been a disturbance on the line. Officials shut down all public transport in the belgian capitol and advised locals to stay indoors after the blast. A federal prosecutor said one of the two explosions at the airport was likely caused by a suicide bomber and all three blasts were acts of terrorism. The Prime Minister called today a dark moment for the country. And World Leaders pledged solidarity with belgium, including president obama who is on a trip to cuba. Well do whatever is necessary to support our friend and ally belgium in bringing to justice those who are responsible. The attacks followed a flurry of Counter Terrorism activity in brussels. A raid on friday captured Saleh Abdeslam in connection with the november paris terror attacks that killed 130 people. The terror group isis is claiming responsibility for todays explosions. In the wake of the cowardly attacks, security is being beefed up at airports all around europe. Italian Security Forces are on maximum alert. While security measures were tightened in romes airport as well. Police with dogs are patrolling the airline checkin area. All flights to brussels are canceled in the netherlands, the Prime Minister announced increased security at amsterdams airport and major rail way stations. Tampa International Airport is also increasing its security. There are no direct flights from Tampa International to brussels but officers and k9s are at work in the common areas of the airport. And tsa agents are also on the watch. All airport staff are supposed to be looking around, looking for anything suspicious. We know what the airports supposed to look like. We know when something doesnt look right. Meanwhile u. S. F officials made contact with two staff brussels. Both are safe. One american who was inside the Brussels Airport this morning when the bombs went off spoke to the today show. Jeff hoffman was traveling with his girlfriend. Heres how he described the bombs going off 30 feet away interest him. So the first explosion hit. And i felt the shock wave kind of hit me. And basically you kind of turn what i saw was a large number and again, 3040 feet away. It certainly didnt look like we were going to be looking for survivors in that immediate vicinity. Ten miles away from the airport, a second bombing location, this one happening minutes after the first at a crowded subway station. Remember this is at 8 00 in the morning when these travel hubs were packed. At least 20 people died there. And transportation authorities have now closed down metro stations all across the city. Were told bomb squads found and detonated another suspicious package in the area. But it didnt contain explosives. Belgian authorities are advising people there to stay indoors. We want to get perspective on the attacks. 8 on your side has answers today. Joining me now is howard alt man, the Senior Writer that covers military affairs for the tampa tribune. Thanks for being here. Thanks for having me. Another very somber day. I know youre working on a story now. In the people youve talked to i dont think anybody is actually surprised by these kinds of attacks. Not, certainly not in europe. Weve seen a number of attacks over the last year and a half. And, you know, there might be some attacks beyond europe as some other groups continue to make their status known. Did you or do you get the sense in talking to the military folks you talk with on a frequent basis that this was a reaction to the arrest of the paris bombing suspect . No, this was not a reaction. I talked to a belgian former Belgian NationalPolice Officer who told me that this attack was so well planned and so well coordinated that it couldnt have really taken place in three days after the arrest of mr. Saleh abdeslam. When they raided one of the places where he was, they found traces of explosives, they knew something was up. Talking to people in the news room today, these attacks seem to be happening so much more frequently. It brings you back to civilians in the u. S. Are we targets again . Were seeing it in europe. You saw in San Bernardino that there was an attack on a county office, a so called soft target, its not behind a security zone where people have access. As i talked to this gentleman in brussels today, he was mentioning how airport terminals for instance were until you get behind the security line, anybody can show up, and he said that the security presence there is useless in the lobby against an attack like this. Which is exactly what happened. They hadnt gone through security. This is before they got to security. Any target, malls, any place where theres not a security quarten, these things are possible. Because these are targets of opportunity. Howard alt man, we appreciate you coming to talk with us. Were continuing to cover this story for you live at 5 00, 5 30, 6 00, and 7 00 tonight and between news casts go to wfla. Com. Now lets check in with the forecast back here at home.

Lots of sunshine to start the day. Notice some cloud cover building in as we head into wednesday afternoon. Not expecting any rain though. The severe winds start to bring us the warmer temperatures. Thats why were back up into the 80s. And a little more moisture. We shouldnt see showers on wednesday. A few clouds during the afternoon hours. Sunshine, temperatures are mild, theyre in the 60s, and then by thursday afternoon, we really start to heat back up, we reach into the low to mid 80s. And notice a few showers and storms developing late in the day. Evening, thats when our rain chances return. And the best chances have really been for areas to the south and east, polk county, Highlands County, youre more likely to see showers and storms as we head into thursday afternoon, as we head into friday, we could see rain lingering thursday night into friday. The front moves in on friday, this is going to stall out across the region as we head into this weekend. A little uncertainty with this weekends forecast, but at this point, with the front moving in on friday, expect isolated showers to develop in the morning and early afternoon hours as well. Temperatures though with this front, theyre not going to change. This front is not bringing cooler air, its just bringing us the rain. Notice high temperatures tomorrow are back up to 80.

Coming up, two sky divers collided in the bay area, both survived that fall. Well have that story at 4 30. An update from the deadly terror attacks in brussels. Well get another look at the suspected bomber police are looking for. But first more from the rays in cuba. This time from the first 4 sports angle. Youre watching news channel 8. Know you can save today welcome back. Lets check in with first at 4 00 sports. First at quatro. Weve been talking a lot about cuba. But not a lot about the score. 30 rays. Ive been enjoying watching the spectacle. More than 50,000 people inside. For all this talk and anticipation, all the opinions, and hope for the future. It was nice to see a baseball game actually take place this afternoon in havana cuba. The rays are on the field as we speak against the Cuban National team. And this has been quite the day. Rays manager kevin cash introduced each player escorted to the field by a child. And several rays players made obamas seat behind home plate. Chris archer passed along matt moores glove as a gift. Then the first cuban born player to leave the country then return to play a game in cuba. A little pop out but a piece of history for verona. 2nd inning, a single there, kevin, the cubans found out about his speed today the hard way. He slides in safely to put the rays on top 10. The president loves that. Raul castro even has to applaud the base running by the rays. A 2run shot. They fight for the ball in right field. Everythings a souvenir. The final home stand of the season for the lightning begins tonight. This one is a biggie. One of the teams battling for a playoff spot in the eastern conference. This is an example of how crazy this playoff chase has gotten for each team involved. The lightning are four points ahead of the wings who currently own the last wild card spot in the conference. We go through a stretch where we win nine in a row. Then you lose five of six and you go on a road trip and you go. 500 and now we have a chance tonight to win and be first in the division. With ten games left in the season, i think its going to be that way until the end. The team goes on a hot streak, youre in first place, youre on a cold streak youre out of the playoffs. Its one of those things, i dont know if ive ever been a part of something this close, seeing Something Like this. Any team can win on any given night and thats a pretty cool thing. This is a sixgame home something they really need to take advantage of. The lightning are 21, 11, and 3 at home. It took them a while to get to that 21, for a long time in the season, home ice was not friendly ice. Thats been one of the reasons the lightning have been working to get up to where they are now. Im not sure im correct on this but i believe it was invitation only to attend this game. Not surprising. I dont think they were scalping tickets out on the streets of havana. Now four headlines at 4 30. The Orlando Sanford airport is refusing to let a plane from brussels any where near the terminal. The passengers have been searched, loaded on to a bus and taken from the tarmac to a holding area while security plane. The plane left brussels while ten people died at least. Number two, two sky divers wearing wing suits collided a few hours ago in midair over zephyr hills. One landed in the drop zone at sky dive city. And is in serious but stable condition. And the second landed on the road four miles from the drop zone. Hes in critical condition. Both being treated at tampa general hospital. An investigation is under way at los angeles International Airport where a person thought to be a jet blue Flight Attendant took off running after being selected for a random security screening.

The Terror Threat level in belgium has been raised to its maximum. France deployed extra officers around the country, British Police have stepped up their presence in certain spots as well. Possible connection with the capture of Saleh Abdeslam on friday. He is the paris terror attack suspect who belgian and french authorities had been seeking since november. Authorities not yet making any connections. Meanwhile, here in the u. S. , National Security officials are on guard for the potential of any copy cat attacks and if youre traveling today in the u. S. , particularly by air, you can expect enhanced security presence. Airports in cities like new york, washington, los angeles, and chicago all ready steps up security around those airports. In washington, karen. We have a lot of questions about the cowardly terrorist attacks. 8 on your side has answers for you at home. Joining me now is craig. Thanks for being with us. Tell us a little bit about critical intervention services. We provide a range of services and consulting and specific concerns including terrorist concerns. Were you surprised by the attacks . No, actually belgium was quite a logical target. Keep in mind, belgium has one of the largest populations of islamic extremists in any where in europe. Also a number of the attackers from the november 13 attacks in paris resided in belgium for sometime. The large number of belgians that have joined factions in the middle east. The thinking is maybe this would have been not necessarily in response to his arrest, theyve been planning this a little bit longer. Im sure this operation was in the planning for sometime. But i suspect that the timing for the operation may have been expedited as a result of the recent arrest. Why are they targeting civilians. Its been a logical target for years. Groups such as the Islamic State and alqaeda, they seek venues to generate large have a large impact in the psyche of the general populous and media attention. Train stations are a logical target. Isis good at going after the attention when they take credit for any of these attacks to get the message out and use that to their advantage. But every time theres a terrorist attack, its common to look back at home and say are we safe at home . Do you see a possible target in the future . Should we be concerned . Its definitely possible. But i want to draw a direct correlation between what happened in brussels verses in our own domestic security situation. But theres no secret the Islamic State and other factions have been trying to strike us in the homeland. As soon as they can bring that to fruition, theres no doubt they will. Craig with us from critical intervention services. Thank you for coming on the program. Attacks continues live at 5 00, 5 30, 6 00, and 7 00. And you can always find the latest between news casts on our website, wfla. Com. Still ahead on first at 4 00 the intersection of palm and dogwood is one of the busiest intersections right here on the u. S. F campus. Coming up, ill show you what Campus Police are doing to make it safer. And then youll want to stick around for these 8 on your side stories. A lake land man spent much of the day on his cell phone trying to get a hold of friends and colleagues in brussels. Ill have more on his connection to the area. University village, a troubled Retirement Community today. Im keith cate in havana cuba, you want baseball welcome back. The university of south florida has a new 15,000dollar grant to keep students and the surrounding community safer. And as news channel 8s double a Anthony Aldridge shows us Campus Police plan to use the money to cut down on car, bike, and pedestrian accidents. A lot of students get hand. They think its like a countdown. At the university of south florida, this intersection is one of the busiest cross roads on campus. If you press the button, it may go right away. Thousands of students ride their bike, skate board, and walk as part of their daily commute to class. So it came as no surprise when Patrol Officer robert brightwell caught student after student not paying attention to the rules of the road. I think the biggest problem is students just trying to get places in a rush and vehicles trying to get to class. Officer brightwell tells me the goal is not to hand out expensive citations or harass students on their way to school. The department wants to educate students so they can get to where theyre going safely. Its dangerous crossing and a car could hit you. Dillon was stopped for trying to cross when he didnt have the signal. Its not the safest to have the headphones in when hes riding a skate board on campus. Dillon has his own ideas about how to keep students safe. If they want students to be safe on the road i feel like the school should invest in putting proper sidewalks to utilize instead of forcing us on high congested roads and getting angry when were in a rush for class. When we caught her texting while walking, she knew she was wrong. People get hit a lot here. Ive seen a girl get hit not using the crosswalk. Im sure its an issue. I probably should have paid the street. Have you ever been stopped before . No. Its not going to be easy but u. S. F police plan to spread the word one pedestrian at a time. A car could have been turning left and she would have never known. U. S. F police didnt give any tickets today but they tell news channel 8 citations will be issued if students arent getting the message. Well be right back with more first at 4 00, stay with us. Ugh. I really shouldnt. No, you know what . I should. And i will. I deserve this. Im a bogo findin, weekly ad flippin, couponing mastermind. Whos saving big time . This girl can i help you . Indeed. This queen of a cannoli, please. The weekly ad, bogos and coupons. Three easy ways to save at the same place you love to shop. Publix. Where shopping theres a special premier tonight in lake land. The stars all have intellectual disabilities. Thats why the film maker chose them. The mission of the movie is to better understand those who might not be just like us. We put expectations on these individuals with intellectual disables because we dont want them to be rejected. We dont want them to be hurt. We dont want them to be broken. Graduate and a budding film maker. How many times have you seen the movie . Five times. Her little sister has seen it five times. Because shes one of the stars of the movie. What started as a passion project turned into part of her college thesis. Our lives are incredible because of them. The movie is called people like us. And it shines a light on people with intellectual disabilities. When i was growing up, i watched my little sister face a lot of rejection. And people just make fun of her whether it was my own friends or just strangers staring at her in the grocery store. Theyre the youngest of their 12 children. What i liked is that she not only told the story about emma and her journey but also looked their disabilities. These are people. The movie follows all six from their homes to theater practice and eventually to the final production in which they star. When someone tells me i cant do something, i look them in the face and say youre wrong. I may look different but my disability doesnt define me. The point of this film is to give people information and vicarious contact with these individuals so that the people that they interact with then in their daily lives, they will have more empathy and understood standing for. And as you can imagine, this movie makes their mother, well i am so proud. I cry like twice a year. I feel like i could cry right now. I am so proud of the kids that have come alongside to help and encourage her. And to see them both working really a blessing. And the movie took her three years to make. She tells me shes very grateful for all the people who joined in and helped her. And tonight is the big night. The movie premiers at the historic pope theater in lake land at 7 00. Free by the way. Cool im hoping they get a good turn out. Time for a check of the forecast. Storm team 8 meteorologist Julie Phillips joining us now. We can beat today. Blue skies. We warmed up into the 70s.
