This is the ramp from the schuylkill eastbound side to the eastbound side of the vine street expressway. The vine has reopened now in both directions. Still working on that water main break by juniata park along cayuga street near k. You want to avoid that this morning. Stick with bristol or hunting park. No problems so far along 95 or the schuylkill. They both look good and overnight construction on the northeast extension has cleared out. We still have that water main break in worcester township blocking off township line road this morning. I would just stay down on Germantown Pike throughout the morning commute to get around that.

Matt. We begin way developing story a man who forced his way into a philadelphia home that did not belong to him did not make it out alive. Action News Reporter Katherine Scott is live near the scene along the 6100 block of reed street in the lawncrest section. Katherine. Reporter matt, thats right, Police Believe that man was after drug money but he didnt make it out alive after a homeowner pulled his gun on him and you can see police remain on the scene here in lawncrest on the 6100 block of reed street. They were initially called around 11 30 last night. Police say the 35yearold man who was killed barged through the front door last night with a gun in his hands and announced a robbery to the five people inside. Thats when police say the 27yearold homeowner took out his gun and fired at least four shots. The intruder was hit twice and collapsed dropping his handgun by his feet. Meanwhile two women who live here had gone to get their own semiautomatic weapons but never fired them. When Police Arrived they found the 35yearold on the dining room floor. He had been shot in the neck and his chest. Medics performed cpr and tried to revive him but law pronounced dead just after midnight. While police were investigating here they discovered what appears to be marijuana inside the home and cash nearby and believe that might have been why the robber targeted this home. It was a green weedlike substance in a large plastic bag. It appears to be marijuana. Has a heavy odor of marijuana. Theres also several hundred dollars right next to this alleged marijuana and we also found some packaging material. Reporter and theres no word on if any charges will be filed. Everybody inside the home was taken to the Homicide Division to be interviewed. Were live in lawncrest, Katherine Scott, channel6 action news. Katherine, thank you for that. Its now 5 34 and Philadelphia Police are investigate wag could be an antimuslim hate crime. This is Surveillance Video from sunday night outside the Islamic Society on the 1500 block of germantown avenue in kensington. It shows a red pickup truck tossing what appears to be the severed head of a pig in front of the mosque. The koran prohibits muslims from eating pork. Pigs and pork products have historically been used to taunt muslims. Well have much more coming up in a live report in our next half hour. Im erin ohearn here at the big board. Donald trump who continues to dominate the gop field in the race for the white house is now calling to ban all muslims from entering the united states. The proposed policy would apply to immigrants and visitors. His rivals including jeb bush and john kasich are calling him everything from divisive to unhinged. Ted cruz who is gaining ground on trump in the polls said of trumps announcement it was not his policy. Hillary clinton called the ban reprehensible and prejudice. Trump issued the proposal yesterday afternoon stating the ban should remain in place until our countrys representatives can figure out what is going on. The candidates newest and likely most controversial statements come after the mass shooting in San Bernadino and a recent poll from a conservative washington think tank claiming there is a level of hatred towards america among large segments of the muslim population. Our country cannot be the victim of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in jihad. They have no respect for human life. Well, a short time after trump made his remarks the florida mayor announced hes banning donald trump from his city. He tweeted this. Saint petersburg would ban trump until we fully understand the dangerous threat posed by all trumps. The San Bernadino shooters took target practice at a gun range. They also believe the couple had been radicalized for quite some time n a chilling twist authorities also disclosed that syed farooks coworkers at the county Health Department underwent active Shooter Training in the same Conference Room where farook and his wife Tashfeen Malik killed 14 people. It was not immediately clear whether farook attended a similar session late last year. The Pennsylvania State troop here was shot on the vine street expressway is making progress. Doctors surgically removed the bullet lodged in trooper pat caseys shoulder. The 31yearold underwent an outpatient procedure at Hahnemann University hospital yesterday.

Tomorrow High Pressure moves right back in again. Weve got this front thats still out to the west so it starts to get a little milder ahead of it, partly sunny skies and 53 degrees. Feeling better.

The westbound lanes are blocked at morgan hill road, thats exit 75. These are the westbound drivers, westbound traffic coming in from warren county, new jersey, completely parked because all westbound lanes of 78 are shut down. If thats your route, you want to stay up on 22 as an alternate this morning. Thats going to be a much better bet through Northampton County.
