Reporter now, as far as what went wrong here, interestingly, that tractortrailer was hauling a modular building were told. It reportedly got stuck as it was making a sharp lefthand turn. As we say maybe the most interesting element here is that weve learned it was under active escort by police at the time.

Erin. Matt, developing news in the case often referred to as the bling sting. Today Philadelphia District attorney Seth Williams plans to announce charges against three people in that Corruption Case that pennsylvanias attorney general Kathleen Kane said was not from the tam. A grand jury has recommended charges against two current state lawmakers and a former state legislator. You may remember Pennsylvania State representatives Ronald Waters and Vanessa Brown both from philadelphia waved their preliminary hearing on corruption charges in december and williams says the pair was caught on camera accepting thousands of dollars in exchange for political favors and that both representatives had admitted to the crime. This investigation was reopened by williams after cane secretly ended the sting operation that focuses now on five elected officials in philadelphia who reportedly again took cash for gifts from lobbyists working undercover. Cane said the investigation was married by shoddy police work and the possibility of racial prejudice. A former Philadelphia Traffic Court judge pleaded guilty three months ago to conflict of interest as part of the same investigation. It is expected that todays conference williams will be joined by members of his Public Corruption Task force as well as by the state police. Again, three more arrests expected in this case.
