last month. cydney long is live at the scene of that deadly crime in haddon township. >> what did you uncover today? >> reporter: i can tell you the business was successfully shut down a month ago and code enforcement officials tell us they checked on it just last week. part of the confusion with this investigation is the building where the teenage party was held. that sits in camden city. but the parking lot where the shooting occurred is in haddon township. a bright yellow camden city code enforcement sticker dated march 2nd seemingly peeled back and scraped up was a car dealer's cue with no license to operate he had to shut down and the fact teenager bright was shot and killed in this parking lot sunday night has camden city leaders fuming. >> once i heard that there was a dance or something that took place and that this was a car dealer not a nightclub, my question was who is this guy and what is he doing? >> reporter: neighbors on the haddon township side of the lot along grant avenue -- >> it's not a new problem. you know it's been going on for months. >> reporter: say they fear for their own safety. that the business is a nuisance in the community. we found out today from the prosecutor's office that as many as 100 teens attended this sunday night easter glow in the dark party. >> unfortunately, it's our problem because most of the kids there are city kids, so we got to make sure we stay ahead of it, make sure there's no retaliation. >> reporter: investigators tell us they're working to enhance surveillance video of the chaos that unfolded. we tried to dig up gas station security video, but it was too grainy. city leaders say they're confident the shooter and anyone else liable will be brought to justice. >> that location was closed should not have been open for any type of business let alone a nightclub and throwing parties for kids where you're charging them. so, i can assure you that we will and our attorneys will do their due diligence to go after the property owner. >> reporter: and the city of kam dan just told me who owns the building and that that person leased to the business next door but that leasee perhaps sublet to pitts automotive. the question is who has the key to this building and why would they allow a teenage party to unfold at a business that is zoned commercial and that was shut down? live in haddon township cydney long, "nbc10 news." staying in new jersey it's a done deal. atlantic city's former rebel casino is getting a second chance. today a deal closed to sell revel to florida developer glenn straub.

fate of accused boston bomber dzhokhar tsarnaev. the jury was handed the case a little less than a week before the second anniversary of the deadly attack in boston. michael rosenfield has been covering the federal death penalty trial and joins us live from boston now. michael, first the jury has to decide whether to convict dzhokhar tsarnaev and then his punishment right? >> that's right. jury deliberation began first thing this morning. these are the documents the jury foreperson will eventually have to fill out, 30 counts in all, as they decide the fate of dzhokhar tsarnaev. a new phase under way after weeks of testimony, including heartbreaking accounts from marathon survivors, the case is in the hands of the jury. the united states of america versus dzhokhar tsarnaev will now be decided by seven women and five men. he is facing 30 counts charges ranging from using a weapon of mass destruction, both at marathon finish line and watertown, bombing of public use, conspiracy and carjacking. >> we're all guessing as to how long the jury will take because they are looking at an awful lot of evidence that helps to establish his guilt. but there are also a number of charges where they may find the evidence is lacking. >> reporter: with so many exhibits presented in court, jurors will be able to view videos and photos of the evidence on a touchscreen in the jury room. the judge warning jurors not to let the graphic images override their rational weighing of the evidence. while the defense openly admitted in court dzhokhar tsarnaev should be held accountable and his actions deserve to be condemned, they say if it hadn't been for his older brother, none of this would have happened. they say he researched how to make the bomb he bought the bomb-making materials and he built them. the defense argues tamerlan tsarnaev led and dzhokhar tsarnaev just followed. they hope the jurors will eventually spare his life. prosecutors say the two men were partners in crime. that they prepared for the attack, coordinated with each other and that he was radicalized like his brother pointing to his own words scribbled on a boat hiding in watertown, explaining his actions. >> no one expects we won't see a guilty verdict in the bombing case but the jury is taking its time going through a 32-page jury verdict form and being deliberate. and hopefully, likely, we may see a verdict some time tomorrow. >> reporter: and if jurors do find dzhokhar tsarnaev guilt y a new trial will begin and the same jury will have to decide if he should be sentenced to death or life in prison. live in boston, michael rosenfield, "nbc10 news." >> yesterday was warm and sunny. today warm and cloudy and some showers around. we got kind of a wet week. the rest of the week we'll have

back to the west. a little bit heavier than what's coming through south jersey right now. these are generally lighter showers, moving pretty quickly. this stuff is moving quickly through into allentown, up through the poconos, getting some of that. and we're going to see the possibility of some showers or storms developing to our west. right along that front early this evening. as temperatures drop when the wind comes out of the northeast. you can see the heaviest of the rain falls closer to the warmer air. so, it's just kind of a damp pattern. as you go through the day

breezy and colder. temperatures down into the low 40s. the wind will make it feel even colder. but that's just the beginning of it. tomorrow temperatures hold in the 40s maybe even drop. some patchy

ethics code prohibiting an official or employee from loaning a government money. but there's usually a process. including a vote by council. >> just a matter of xhan sense it would have been documented approved by the governing body of the municipality. >> i have no records. >> reporter: colwyn borough manager isn't convinced it ought to be paid. >> we have to have concrete evidence she did do that. if the council never authorized it, it's not an -- it's not authorized. >> reporter: the nbc10 investigators obtained a borough report showing a deposit in 2011 for $14,999. it's labeled

disagree on whether the money should be repaid. they're on opposing sides in chaotic colwyn county meetings that sometimes bleed over to the hallway. she says that's her money and she wants it back. where does the borough go from here? >> it was never legally authorized. so i mean that's something that a judge is going to have to eventually decide. >> reporter: and that's exactly what vanauken is planning. she's going to sue the borough to get her money back. >> it's a mistake, now i see it was a mistake, but at the time i was emotional and i felt that something -- if i could do something, i would do it. >> she is not just out of $15,000, with penalties and fees she tells us, she's lost more than $20,000. rob caruso with the ethics commission says there is evidence the transaction took place, the borough probably should repay her. for the investigators, harry hairston, "nbc10 news." an infant and 5-year-old brother are dead after a fire tore through their western pennsylvania home.

ready to shift and drop that temperature from the 67 degrees that we have right now. it's down to 59 in allentown. mt. holly, down to 57. they were 71 degrees a couple of hours ago. so, that is the proof that this front is on our door step and temperatures are going to be dropping. of course, it's already cooler at stone harbor because the wind's been coming off that cooler ocean. mt. holly, 15 degrees colder than it was at this time yesterday. allentown, 13 degrees colder. and when we see thesis numbers tomorrow, they'll be in the 20s. we have showers at the shore. we have some showers
