Well still have to deal with the windchill factor this afternoon. Temperatures will warm above freezing in neighborhoods, the exception in the lehigh valley, 31 this afternoon. Even at 31 with bright sunshine, a lot of snow will be melting during the day today. Ill break it down hour by hour, show you whats ahead for your neighborhood when im back in ten minutes. First Jessica Boyington with first alert traffic. Thanks. Were watching one of the first accidents of the morning here. Route 309s northbound side. A crash around highland avenue. A second ago, it was off to the lefthand lane. They just moved it off to the shoulder. Now traffic is squeezing by to the lefthand side. The northbound side around ft. Washington, slow. Also watching the schuylkill expressway following construction. Back to normal now. Not seeing any big increase in drive times yet. Theyre the same. 13 minutes eastbound from the blue route to the vine. Speeds into the high 50s. Ill end with bridges, just checking the
He is live at the scene. Steven, what have you learned . Reporter so far weve been told the task force was out here this morning serving a search warrant about 6 30, and thats when the u. S. Marshal was shot here on mull berry street. Take a look at the scene. Weve got police all over from a couple different agencies here. Youll of course have mulberry street which is shut down. There are crime scene markers all over the street. You cant see that now that this police car just came in here and kiechb blocked our view. Also investigators, police going in and out of every home here on the block trying to talk to neighbors about this potential suspect. Again, a u. S. Marshal was killed and a York City Police officer also shot during this altercation. But his injuries, the york city detective rather, are considered to be nonlifethreatening. Harrisburg officer was also injured but expected to be okay. The names of the officers involved not released as of now, but we can tell you the public i
Thanks. Were still watching the schuylkill expressway. I havent seen them remove this construction project yet. Maybe theyre a little bit behind schedule. Watching it around the vine. You see over here, this is the entrance to the vine street expressway. The eastbound schuylkill still diverting traffic off there. Thats still something that were going to contend with heading out the door. It should be gone soon, though. I thought it would be gone, too. This is clearing. Seeing a delay maybe with people trying to get on the road. 413 is closed between new falls and bath road. It was supposed to be until 5 00, right now. So just watch for extra construction crews in the area just in case. The blue route looks good, too. Ill end with the drive times. Northbound and southbound from 95 to the schuylkill, very light. 14 minutes. Speeds still into the high 60s, as well. Ill have updates when i come back in ten minutes. All right. See you then.
