Ill give a few more details 6789 the cold front came through yesterday. We had just a few extra showers. It realliy really wasnt a bad day at all. You could start to feel the change in the weather. Here is ultimate doppler, there is really nothing to show you. In fact the cold front is now parked offshore and you can see some showers from it off the carolina coast and theres some rain up in canada. But we bring back the pollen forecast. Pollen counts are starting to go up. By thursday were back to medium high levels. So if youre starting to feel that allergy thing, you have good reason. We have 66 degrees in philadelphia right now. Winds are at 8 miles per hour, 68 relative humidity. Sunrise time 5 57. Getting closer to 6 00 a. M. When it used to be 5 30.

A 58yearold man is in the hospital this morning after being stabbed in what police say apaers to be a domestic dispute. This happened in a home on the 6100 block in West Columbia avenue. Police say the victim was stabbed multiple times. One man was taken into custody. A with itness was also removed from the home. Theres still no motive on a deadly chain of events. It started with a hit and run and ended with a driver dead in the delaware river. A man left the scene of his accident. Sped down the ramp, the driver hit the wall before his car flipped over and landed in the water. We dont have that sound right there.

A full physical injury could be possible no way anyone could ever recover emotionally from what she saw in the last split seconds here. It was those images that the 19yearold cant get out of his mind and hell have a lot of nights to see that in his mind in a prison cell. He made a statement without me being present. He is doing everything in his power to atone for this. And like i said, he is completely shattered. They little kids. Three little kids. I sincerely apologize for him. If he hadnt done it, im going to do it for him. What they did was indefensible and also unforgiveable. Whatever remorse they may or may not have does not bring back the three young children. Reporter police just moved the arrested car jackers from Police Headquarters just after 2 00 a. M. And that will be their last ride for a while until theyre taken for their first Court Appearance. Still no date set for that yet. Weve got a funeral next week followed by a Court Appearance probably within the next month almost for sure and then well wait to see how this unfolds in terms of how the mother deals with this and how long she will be in the hospital but critical still at last check.

Well, i can tell you police are still looking for that dad who they say threw a sucker punch. We have a surveillance image of a man and a girl believed to be his daughter walking into the 69 street wawa on sunday. According to upper darby police, the man became enraged when he claimed to see a fellow customer checking out his teenaged daughter. Then dad pulled out his fist and sucker punched the guy. The man remains hospitalized. Police say the violent reaction is too much. Its excessive. Give me a break. If somebody is looking at somebody else, its not enough to get sucker punched and hospitalized. I could see if there was an assault or threats or Something Like that, but just to be looking. And to leave the store in a big hurry, they didnt identify themselves, they exited quickly. Reporter we talked to people in this area who say if the staring was excessive, they understand why the dad was annoyed, but still the violence was wrong in that situation. If you recognize that man in the red tshirt, you are urged to call upper darby police. Do we know the age of the girl in the story . Reporter we just know that shes a teenager. Police dont really have too much information about her. Because they ran off quickly. They dont know who the girl and the adult male are. Thats who theyre looking for. They have not been able to talk to the victim in this case because he is in the hospital for treatment. However, they do tell us that there were a lot of people in that wawa. So right now thats where theyre getting that information from. From the surveillance pictures as well as witnesses. He was just looking at her, didnt say anything to her . Reporter he did not. But then apparently the father and the victim exchanged words and thats when the punch occurred. All right. Interesting story. Thanks so much. 4 14 is the time.
