Fantasies and realities. Good evening. Thanks for joining us. Tonight a road rage battle turned deadly. A widespread manhunt for a suspect thought to have shot a teenage girl in the head after the two allegedly fought for position on a highway. As the travel heavy fourth of july weekend gets under way. We look at the alarming surge in fatal road rage incidents and how a heated moment escalates so quickly. A tragic scene two days ago, one thats become shockingly familiar. An 18yearold girl shot and killed behind the wheel in pennsylvania. Tonight a manhunt under way for this suspect who Authorities Say is armed and dangerous. This is going to come down, ladies and gentlemen, to assistance by the public. Okay . It is crucial. The family deserves this. This homicide was completely senseless, brutal and tragic. A recent High School Grad who was headed to college murdered after driving home from the mall after she and this red pickup truck tried to merge into the same lane seen here in this surveillance image. The man in the red pickup truck pulled out a gun and shot her in the head killing her. This is now a murder case. She was a good girl. Honor roll student. Looking forward to going to college. Biancas murder, just the latest example of road rage turned deadly. Across the country from this california freeway call 911, chris. To this florida intersection. Enraged drivers. Two men caught on camera in a road rage incident involving a bat. They go at it, struggling in the middle of traffic over the weapon. Between 20006 and 2015, theres been a 500 increase in fatalities. You dont know when its going to escalate. It doesnt take much from going to cursing to the coroners office. Its murder. Its somebody who dies. Sitting in the vista detention facility, theres someone whos learned that the hard way. If i would have known that it ended the way it ended, i would have never ever followed him. Earlier this year dar la jackson a 27yearold mother with no prior arrests was sentenced to six years in prison after pleading guilty to the voluntary manslaughter of navy officer zack yube. Ill commit you to the middle term of six years. The encounter between the two escalated when yube drove up alongside of her on his motorcycle and kicked the side of her car leaving a dent and shoe print. She couldnt believe he had done it. Decided to follow him to get the license plate. Another motorist captured a few seconds of the high speed chase and shortly after this clip cut off, disaster. What happens is he slows down. The driver doesnt react fast enough to that to gauge how much hes slowing down. So her nose of her car literally rolls up on to the back wheel of the motorcycle. Now ensnarled, both the car and the motorcycle siding together for 315 feet before they became dislodged. Yube hit the ground and dar la jackson ran over him. I wont see my daughter for a very long time. I deeply regret what happened. The countrys roads and highways are increasingly snarled with traffic leaving many drivers at their breaking point. Stress levels are at an alltime high and when our stress is high, we tend to personalize what other tend to do. We view it as an insult theyre cutting you off. Too often emotion takes over the wheel. Youre not seeing that person head on. Because you cant see them, we tend to have more of a reaction of being more aggressive. Any angry encounter on the road can be terrifying. I almost want to stop and pullover at an exit. No. Because then shell get out of the car. Dude, i dont know what to [ bleep ] do. Vanessa and her friend were headed to reno, nevada for a girls weekend when their road trip turned into a nightmare. They described what went wrong. Shes in the slow lane next to me and she starts coming into my lane and pushing me into the shoulder to the point where i have nowhere else to go and i have to come to a complete stop in the middle of the highway. They say things got scarier when she flipped the bird. When you add a little one finger salute, that creates crazy in a heartbeat. Just keep driving as well as you can. Even capturing her call to 911. We have a really bad emergency on highway 80. We have a vehicle that has been following us telling us that shes a cop and telling us to pullover and shes swerving us off the road. She keeps trying to hit us off the road. Im freaking out. Dude, shes [ bleep ]. She just hit our car. She just hit our car. Shes pushing us off the road. Shes coming for us. Put it in reverse. Put it in reverse, vanessa. Suddenly this woman jumps out of the truck and runs to her window. Shes in an explorer. Its a ford explorer. Shes knocking on our wind saying that shes a cop. Go ahead and go. The hardest thing was looking straightforward talking to the 911 operator. Shes pounding on my window and i dont know what to do. We both said later what if she had a gun. Fortunately she didnt. She also wasnt a cop. That badge, from her job at a Senior Living facility. She is so [ bleep ]. She hit us. It says next right, fuel. The 911 dispatcher tells the women to exit to a gas station and hopes the police can intercept. Okay. Theres an officer right now with us. Thank you. Thank you so much, maam. She ultimately pleaded no contest to charging of assault with a develop. Her truck. And making threats to commit a crime resulting in death. Whatever the most she was sentenced to 925 days in county jail and five years probation. She declined our offer for an sboouf interview. Every second you were out tlr there, you were only making this worse for yourself and for this young ladys family. A reminder that a moment of road rage can lead to a lifetime of anger and grief. I dont think if its even worth saying to somebody like that turn yourself in. I dont even think he cares. Nobody that cares would even do anything like that to somebody, especially somebody you dont know. Up next on a lighter note, a convention for professional mermaids. What is this job and why are all these people diving in . After a dvt blood clot. I sure had a lot on my mind. My 30year marriage. My 3month old business. Plus. What if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i made a point to talk to my doctor. He told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Eliquis had both. And that turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. Beneful grain free is so healthy. Oh farmraised chicken thats good chicken.

We take a look at the mermania convention to find out whats the appeal of splashing around with scantly clad people . No shirt . No shoes . No problem. Welcome to nc mermania. Yep, this is a Mermaid Convention. Diving in for a weekend of fun, flare, and fins. Being a mermaid means being the bridge between under water and reality. Here we go back to the big pool. These die hards are making waves wowing in tails that can cost up to 5,000 all brought together by a shared albeit unique hobby. It was daryl hannah who first made a flash. What are you doing, sweetheart . Taking a bath. Can i come in . No. Then it was aerials turn as the little mermaid. Under the sea. Now its hannahs who says for her its about pushing fun and fantasy. These are one of my favorite part of my room. They are handmade by me, jelly fish lanterns. Met the 21yearold art and design student at her college in virginia. This is fish netting that i got that actually make tops with. Although hours away from the ocean, shes found a way to bring the sea to her. Here is a jar of sand from the outer banks which i collected myself. This room is kind of like, my roommate grotto. Hannah teaches with instagram followers. Shes quick to respond its a common gig. A lot of people understand when i say im a mermaid. I really enjoy dressing up as a mermaid and entertaining children, swimming in coral reeves and doing really special things that not a lot of people get to do. On this day hannah is packing for the annual Mermaid Convention and lets say the dress code was very specific. This one was custom made for my measurements. I picked the paint job. This cost me 2,100. These are made out of silicone. Shes set and ready for what promises to be a fantastic weekend. They say its better under the sea, but these guys really mean it. Being under water is an extremely exhill rating feeling. Your adrenaline is pumping and youre kind of scared but feeling relaxed being under the water. Here at one of the largest mermaid gatherings in world we meet chris, an actor who turned merman who has been part of this community for the last four years. I would call a pressure mermaid a giver of dreams. Go get that dream. Go be you. Chris says a big motivator for him is upping the image of him in the mermaid industry. Create a world for them where they dont have to be afraid. I was picked on in school for my love of the ocean. When i set out to be this character, i wanted to make it a safe haven for other mean and be a role model and be an inspiration for them and breakdown as many doors as i possibly could. Its just what i do. Its my job. Its the job that i wanted to do. I just keep, to quote dory from finding ne finding nemo i just keep swimming. Its just an amazing feeling to know that i made an impact on a lot of people in this business and people looking to join the business. Its wonderful. Its very overwhelming. 300 participants from around the globe have traveled to this meet up to socialize. Check out the latest gear. These are our 3,000 silicone tails. And to attend seminars about all things mermaiding. Know what youre wearing and what youre doing under water. Husband and wife duo ar coaching the students on how to strike a pose while submerged taking them from classroom to pool to test their moves. Hannah, the veteran, stunning in these under water shots. I learned a whole lot about breath control, buoyancy and stuff like that. We had some good laughs when we looked at the photos. Its been fun. She says her began as a child. And others watching arial here in action. Wondering free, wish i could be part of that world when i was a child i would actually put both of my legs inside one pant leg in my leggings when i was a kid and have diving flippers and i would go in hotel pools and public pools and swim like that. Now shes able to share her fashion with other young kids growing up with the fantasy. While some might find it odd, hannah says at its over, the convention is about bonding with friends. Everyone who comes here has the same love for mermaids and the same love for the water and we really understand each other and we understand the commitment and creativity it takes to be a mermaid or a merman. So ive made so many friends that i can truly say they are my best friends. Friendships that go a little deeper, both above and below the surface.

Finally tonight at this Catholic Church a priest who practices what he preaches. Heres my coanchor dan harris. Jorge knows firsthand what it means to be a part whof what ses like two very separate worlds, the Lbgt Community and the Catholic Church. At the church of st. Paul in new york city he works in lgbt out reach. While this church may be progressive, that is not the case across the country. But a conversation is gipinbegi. I think there as real need for lgbt catholics to feel welcome in the church and they have not. Its an attempt to bring the church. Father james martin has written a new book called building a bridge. You want to build a bridge. How do you do that . Respect, compassion and sensitivity. That goes for both sides. But the onus is really on the Institutional Church because its the Institutional Church that has made the lgbt catholics feel so marginalized. A wake up happened with the massacre in orlando florida, the largest mass shooting in america. 49 people were killed and yet only a handful of bishops spoke out and fewer still used the words guy or lgbt. It revealed to me a certain lack of participation in that part of our church and society. You say this has to be a two way street and you call on members of the Lgbt Community to be respectful. For some people in this community that is a tough pill to swallow because theyve been on the receivingen end of what they feel is zrigdiscrimination. I make it clear the burden is on the church, but lgbt catholics are christians they do not want to hear anything about welcoming lgbt people. Unfortunately a lot of approximate t is motivated by home phobia and fear. Do you have optimism that this bridge can be built . Absolutely. There are people who are lgbt catholics who are members of their perish communities and who are welcome. There are places across this country where its happening already. Its just a question of trying to get people in the Institutional Church to see that these are their brothers and sisters. Once we have people on both sides who are willing to i guess compromise, then i think well see it a bit easier for both to coexist. This is dan harris in new york. Thats indeed why we build bridges.
