Mass transit, though, looking good. Karen, thomas, back to you. Bob, thank you. Time 4 03, we begin with breaking news, one firefighter has been injured battling fire in pennsauken, new jersey, lets get right to the scene. Lauren johnson with the latest. Lauren . Reporter good morning, thomas, very active scene here. Bob described it, as you can see, firefighters still have their work cut out for them this morning, the fire still burning, we could see the fire and heavy smoke from the betsy ross bridge coming over from the philadelphia side. Right now, it appears as if multiple homes are affected by the flames shooting out of the roof. If you are familiar with this area, it is right near the pennsauken transit center. It is right near Meadowbrook Park near the train tracks, the fire started early this morning, around 2 30 a. M. At this hour we do understand one firefighter injured his ankle and was taken to Cooper University hospital. We had heard another firefighter was injured. But that information has not been confirmed for us just yet. It does appear, though, that several people are displaced this morning after that fire that burned here at a home, we do see a lot of neighbors milling around, so of course, this has woken up the neighborhood. Were trying to get more information. We just approached the scene as you guys were tossing out to us. So we will try to find out more about what happened here in pennsauken new jersey with the fire, bring you the latest as soon as we get it. As you mentioned, very active scene. Well see you again in just a movement lauren, thank you. Following more breaking news there is time out of olney. Twentyseven year old man has been rushed to the hospital after being shot. The shooting happened about 2 15 at seventh and champ plows street. Police tell fox 29 he was shot in the back and shoulder. Hes been taken to einstein hospital currently in stable condition. Philadelphia police are now investigating one of their own after they say an offduty officer shot her husband during a domestic dispute. It happened yesterday morning, in the driveway of the couples home in northampton township. The 11 year veteran of the force works out of the 17th district, which is in point breeze, she allegedly pulled her nonservice weapon and fired one shot striking her husband in the stomach after she tried to leave the home with their three children. You just dont know what goes on nextdoor, across the street, whatever, you know . It is pretty scary that you cant leave she had to shoot the husband and everything. Police say there is a history of domestic issues, but there were no protective orders lodged against either party. Investigators this morning still trying to determine how a Philadelphia Police officer backed up and hit a woman in kensington, skyfox over the area where it happened around 4 30 yesterday at mcpherson square, a park, near clearfield and f street. Someone recorded part of the incident, posted it on instagram, of course, we blurred much of the video because of the victims injuries are so graphic. Police were parked in the park while conducting an investigation. The officer put the car in reverse, struck the woman standing behind t now the video shows the officers scrambling to put the woman in the back of the police car to rush her to the hospital. We talked to a woman who heard the entire commotion. Accident like that should not happen. But wrong place, wrong time. The woman is in Critical Condition this morning at the hospital. Also, day two of the jury selection, the trial of david creato, jr. , prosecutors say he killed his three year old son, brandon, back in october of 2015 and then report that little child missing. A memorial that went up at the site where police found that childs body, they took it down, they wanted to bring the jury the to the scene. The attorney for david said it could influence the jurors if they were to visit the site during the trial. Also, big news from yesterday, the search for the murder suspect who posted video of his crime on facebook, it is over, because the suspect, steven stevens, killed himself yesterday in erie, pennsylvania. He died out there in western pennsylvania after a two day manhunt across this country, Pennsylvania State police say he shot himself after a car chase. It was a quick thinking worker at a mcdonalds drive through window who recognized them. Saw it was ohio plates on the car. He was ordering come chicken nuggets, and fries, and stalled and called the police. The owner said it was the time that made the difference. Basically, just told him it was going to be a minute for his fries, which it wasnt really. We were just trying to make sure she got in contact with the state police. And by the time he pulled out of the mcdonald parking lot, police were on his tail, could see it, troopers say he did take his own life while closing in on him. And the family of stevens victim, 74 year old robert godwin, several go fund me accounts out there, dont be fooled, they are not the real thing. Please did not donate to any of the go fund me pages under his name. He left had behind ten children and 14 grab children. Time now 4 08. Happening right now, lets take you outside. Live look at the ben franklin parkway, as preparations continue for the upcoming nfl draft. Of course, that means more headaches for commuters, the second phase of road closures, are now in place with a draft just over a week away. Lets get right out to steve keeley, along the parkway this morning with what you need to know. Hi, steve. Reporter well, it sounds like everybodys getting different information about what they need to know. Bob kelly, by the way, the inner lines still open. We took them to get here. And were here with our colleagues, and they were told that the closures were going to happen at 6 00 a. M. So theyre standing by to get pictures of that. We saw a lot of police arriving, getting ready to do something, but you can still get around little bit before i guess 6 00 a. M. If you are an early riser. All right, let me give you little history, karen, thomas, burt bell, the old guy who bought the prank forward Yellow Jackets and turned them into the Philadelphia Eagles back in the 30s, he had the first nfl draft, 81 years ago, here in philadelphia. He owned ritz carlton hotel, draft only on the ground floor in the lobby of the ritz carlton, and everybody who lives around the art museum area, as we show you some video, that product sat ends crew took yesterday, would love to see it back into the lobby of a hotel rather than having their neighborhood topsyturvy for about a month, in terms of weeks of preparations and shutdowns and takeovers with high fencing, blockades, so you cant even see through the cyclone fencing, port a johns up everywhere, and the fact that it is going to take another nine days or so to tear it all down once the nfl draft is over, which doesnt even start until next week. It is a month ordeal for us. And these events can last two, three days, like made in america, last two, three days, but takes a month to set up. Another week to ten days to break it down. So it is a month of aggregious inconvenience for us, interferes with our life, our quality of life, our ability to move around and for people to visit us, and it is just a shame because i feel that the city is paying more attention to the needs of satisfying the needs of jayz and roger goodel, than the tax paying citizens of the city. And so one woman brad sat end talked to said hey the pope didnt even take over the art museum stems. But as we come back live, see, bob, the inner lanes, somebody driving on them now, maybe one of the last drivers as you see the headlight up there. More headaches to come if you didnt have enough headaches already here in the art new up. Sad part is, karen, thomas, i think you work out, this is where you go off the treadmills and into the streets because it is spring time. This is when everybody gets in shape. This is one of the greatest place toss run and the stems, chris, go show them the steps, now taken over by the stage. So it is back on to the treadmill for people probably because you cant run around here because this is worse than running on a treadmill. It is like running in circles because you wouldnt know where youre allowed and not allowed to run, and then for the few cars getting around, theyre probably looking at orange barrels and fencing and not looking for people running in the street if they were. So, sadly, for the work out crew who likes to get in shape for the spring time, they have to find another alternate route themselves along with all of the drivers here. Steve, it will be fine. We can all run up and down the drivers, thank you, we appreciate t and the stage looks fabulous by the way. Also happening today, anticipation building and finally here now. The new museum thats come to our city, American Revolution museum, will be opening at 8 00 this morning, whole tribute at the tomb of the unknown soldier at the revolution at washington square, today was the beginning of the revolutionary war f there the festivities will go over with some patriotic fanfare to independence hall, in the mall area, and then conclude with the official dedication and Ribbon Cutting ceremony at 10 30 at the museum outdoor plaza lot of big names will be there including former Vice President joe biden answer former governor ed rendell. You hope the people you leave your children in their care are going to treat them with kindness. So you send your kids to day care. Then this happens. Coming up on good day philadelphia, what that worker says she was doing while slam that child to the ground. And get ready for why are we watching this race happening down there in georgia . Very important to many people, possibly whats to come, what this outcome to mean for the trump administration. Im voting for bob. Good morning, everybody, 4 13, lots of construction underway, not just on the parkway, but also on the 202 interchange here between boot road and route 30. Lets go to the first state and say good morning to wilmington, delaware, waking up on a wednesday, sue has your forecast when we come right back.

That will but the weather the big story. Also, how nice it is, knew. It real i yesterday was definitely ten worthy. It was perfection in spring time weather t wasnt too hot t wasnt too cold. It was just right. So weve got a look now, as i adjust, there we go, little adjustment first thing on a wednesday morning, weve got stationary front to the south. Weve got frontal system to the north. A lot going on on this map. And it means we have unsettled weather for the next couple of days. It also means its not going to rain every single minute, but we do have it keep an eye out for showers here and there. Nothing going on in our area at the moment, but you see we start out sunny today. Clouds start to roll in around lunchtime, pretty overcast in the afternoon, and there is the chance of a pop up shower later on in the afternoon and in the evening. Then, we get into late tonight, and tomorrow morning, we have some showers moving through possibly in the morning. None of this is real heavy stuff. And, unfortunately it, will not help a lot with the pollen, now friday we do have the chance of pop up thunderstorms, that will probably happen in the morning with a cold front, and that will probably clear out by the afternoon. But give us chillier temperatures, in time for the weekend. So we will have little bit of roller coaster ride with temperatures over the next couple of days, as well. You will notice, temperatures are chillier on this map than they were yesterday at least in the city and southwards, when we were in the 50s yesterday, it is 46 today. Fortynine in wildwood. Fortyseven reading. Thirtynine mount pocono. Maybe a sweater or maybe sweatshirt for the kids when theyre waiting for the bus stop today. Yesterday 69 degrees, almost made it to 70. But it was so pleasant. Today clouding up, 62, then we have little bit of warm up, by friday, up to 80 degrees, with thunderstorms possible. Mid 60s on saturday. And chilly rain on sunday, with a high only in the 50s, when the sun comes out monday, and tuesday, were back into the 60s. So, yes, little bit of a roller coaster ride, bob kelly from the eights back to the 50s on sunday. You got t good morning, everybody, up and at it. 4 18 on this wednesday morning, casino every quiet, on the major roadways, on the pennsylvania side, where we zoom on into south jersey, this fire location, that we saw from lauren in pennsauken, new jersey, along zimmerman avenue, adjacent to the betsy ross bridge. Anyone that comes over the betsy ross, coming no new jersey, on your righthand side, you see like little town, thats the stretch there of a number of homes that are on fire. And it is also adjacent to the new Jersey Transit river line station and parking lot, which is right there along zimmerman avenue, adjacent to the river. So, it is not going to cause a lot of traffic issues on route 130, or the betsy ross or 73. Probably catch some attention coming over the betsy ross when you see the smoke or the glow from the fire. And we are waiting to hear from new Jersey Transit as to the effect it will have, if any, on the river line. Now the walt whitman bridge, doing construction on the overnight, until about 5 00. They say 20 minute closures at a time, so they can set up some scaffolding, some tarps, meantime, coming into philadelphia, or leaving philly, the ben franklin would probably be your best bet. If you dont have 20 minutes to spare, 95, work crews out there, between the blue route and route 320, until, about 5 00 with lane restrictions, and working both directions until about 6 00 along 202.

Thank you, sue, we want to get to this breaking news weve been following this morning, firefighters injured after fire rips through homes in pennsauken, new jersey, our Lauren Johnson on the scene. Whats the latest . Good morning, lauren. Reporter good morning, thomas, right here in front of the burned outhouse, you can see crews still on the scene very active trying to contain the fire at the home on zimmerman street. It was intense fire earlier this morning as we were able to see flames and heavy smoke from the betsy ross bridge, coming over from the philadelphia side. We were told the fire started in the top part of the house and the third floor collapsed down to the ground. We were also told several firefighters were injured from jumping from a third floor window, that could be the injury reported of a firefighter with a ankle injury who was taken to the hospital right near the tracks, posed logistical problems for fire crews, told just mold ago, there could be possible water main break, because of some faulty fire hydrant here. We did notice firetrucks were attached to any and every hydrant in the neighborhood, running hoses closer to the fire. We understand several People Living in the them are now displaced. One man who lives nearby escorted inside his home, for his medication, and another man, trying to get help from police, to find his missing dog, so he let out of the house as soon as all of the commotion started we of course will stay here and bring you the latest. We hear the chief expected to speak at any moment now. Well have update for you, karen, thomas, in momentment bob kelly, lets talk to you about what this means for traffic on this side of the bridge this morning . Good job, lauren. We will use picture that you sent out, you tweeted this morning as you were the passenger going over the bridge in the news van. Example of the flames you can see leaving philadelphia going into new jersey off to your right. Anyone that uses the betsy ross, do it sometimes, you look down, nice little neighborhood. Thats the little area that were speaking of here, so thats the home that we just saw in laurens camera and going over the betsy ross, into new jersey, that little township right here to the right of the betsy ross watch lauren mentioned is the fire hoses were used to fight the fire, have come across the train tracks for the new Jersey Transit river line. So that fire is located right there at the river line station parking lot, and adjacent to the tracks. So certainly going to be delays impacted with the river line this morning, were getting, trying get words, from new Jersey Transit as to what their game plan will be. But obviously, first and for most, for the firefighters, to keep that water again, they had to go maybe block or two to begin with. Fight the fire, before they allow those trains to pass through. The walt whitman bridge, we have 20 minute closures until about 5 00. So you may want to use the ben franklin bridge, no rhyme or reason or time line to the closures. They shut it down, 20 minutes, putting up some tarps, and then theyll let traffic go again. Here is one of the work crews, 95, right near the highland avenue interchange working up and down 95 until about 5 00 this morning. Between blue route, 320, work crew down there near highland. Otherwise good shape. No problems on 95 out of the northeast, schuylkill looking good. Good shape on the 42 freeway. Karen, thomas, back to you. Love to hear that, bob, thank youment time 4 35 happening today, sad, father accused of killing his little boy. Day two of jury selection in the trial of david creato junior set for later this morning, prosecutors say he killed three year old sun brandon in october of 2015, then reported the little boy missing. Police fawn the little boys body now gone. And attorney for david creato argued that it could have influenced jurors if they were to advice the the site during the trial. Police say they caught the guys groping women on the campus there of the university of delaware. His name carlos, linked him to three incidents that happened last week. Investigators say he groped two women, followed two other before he ran off, and then they called officers he is not in jail after posting unsecured bond another live look at the parkway, because were getting ready for the big draft happening. Some road closures, so, oh, right there, looks little out of focus, but going to need about the traffic changes and delays getting ready for the seconds rounds to go into effect. Steve keel when i got off today, came in between sweep briar and art museum, i thought it would be closed but it was still open. New closings will happen at six this morning, what were being told, from the folks here working, see a lot of guys, guy in a yellow jack. Right 09 degrees next to chris, two guys, chris, go left. See these guys here to his left. So lot of people out working all night guarding all of this stuff. And lets go to video, in the daylight, being set up. Most boo dollars man in the nfl guaranteed the capitol of booing, the fans invented booing, will let him have it where ever he goes, as soon as hes seen here in philly, if the over price, close to 50 million a Year Commission of the nfl wasnt despised enough already, may not want to go for any strolls along river drive or the few pathways zigzag through the fences, barricades, portajohns, once again taken over the parkway, where long time residents already highly outraged more than week before this three day draft even happens late next week. In terms of the complex city and the size of what they are putting un up, and the length of time theyre take to go do it and the length of time it will take to take it down. It is not a temporary project. It is unbelievable what theyre doing for three days. This construction has cut off that entire area and detoured everything that goes around the art museum. Paying more attention of satisfying the needs of jayz and roger goodel than the tax pairing citizens of the city. A month of aggregious inconvenience for us. And all of this set up isnt going to be taken down quick, it will be taken down and taken away with the speed of 340pound size nfl lineman, nine days is the estimate after the draft ends to get this place back to normal. After a quick break. Congressman macarthur promised to protect our health care. But when rightwing politicians tried to pass a disastrous Health Care Repeal bill that raises costs and cuts coverage, macarthur wouldnt oppose them. Macarthur wouldnt protect us from a bill that raises premiums and causes 24 million to lose their insurance. Wouldnt oppose a massive age tax on people over 50. But supported a 600 billion tax break for the wealthy. Tell Tom Macarthur stop trying to repeal our health care. Fromto the wobbling yogis. Kers to the stationary race winners, we all need lean protein. And it comes in a jimmy deans delights breakfast sandwich. Stacked with 17 grams of protein. Lean into a great day. Shine on. Right now federal agent are investigating a deadly shooting rampage, it happened in downtown fresno, california when they say may be a hate crime. Police say the suspect, cory, told police that he hated white people and shouted before shooting and killing three people in downtown fresno. All of the victims are white police say they do not believe this is in anyway connect today terrorism, but he wanted to kill as many people as possible. In g childcare verse ers trying to solve for decades has finally come to a close. A judge sentenced Pedro Hernandez to 25 years to life in prison. Hernandez kits aton patz in 1979. Prosecutors say the boy was walk to go his bus stop when hernandez lured him with soda and killed him. Investigators never found the boys body n court yesterday, patzs father called hernandez a monster. Also no united employees will be fired over the passenger dragging incident that we all saw. This is according to the ceo of the airline. His name oscar moon owes, he wont fire anybody because of what happened, and calls a system wide failure across many different areas. He says the air lynn have a lot more to say coming up later in the month after it finish a review of the policies, what theyll do with overbooked flights, earlier this month of course we saw this video that came out of this passenger being forceably dragged off the plane in order to make room for a crew. Jones jordan smith, coke is rolling out its personalized bottles. First names, now last names, another huge twist, well show you right ahead on good day philadelphia. Good morning, everybody, 4 45, on a wednesday. Not bad at all. Blue route looking good, the schuylkill, 95 in good shape. The problem were watching though is the fire location in pennsauken, new jersey, along zimmerman avenue. As we saw from laurens camera, firefighters still on the scene there. It is right below the betsy ross bridge on the new jersey side. Actually, here is a picture that lauren tweeted out, as she was headed to the scene. So shes coming over the betsy ross bridge, into new jersey, and off to your right, couple every streets there, tree lined with the homes. There is the flames that were visible from the betsy ross and the smoke when she arrived. And again, this is also going to impact new Jersey Transits river line because, as lauren reported, the hoses from the firefighters come across the river line tracks to fight that fire. So, expect delays this morning. We are waiting to hear back official word from the river line. But there is going to be delays on the trains this morning in south jersey. Now the walt whitman bridge, they have 20 minute closures until about 5 00 this morning. No rhyme or reason to a time line. They shut traffic down for about 20 minute, so they can install some tarps and some construction equipment. So to play it safe, leaving the house right now, i would just head for the ben franklin bridge, of course, new lane restrictions expected to go into play today all part of the draft. So, what we are looking at today is theyre going to close the inner drives of the ben franklin parkway, still only down to one lane on the kelly, Spring Garden street still closed as we heard from steve, just mess in the area there, and septa still has three buses on the detour. Whats the forecast looking like for your hump day . Sue has it in 15 seconds. It was great day yesterday. Go out for a walk and really enjoy that beautiful weather, until you start sneezing. So thats the down side for a lot of people during this time of year, especially, if you are allergic to tree pollen. So your sneeze index for today is high. Medium high tomorrow, because of some rain in the forecast, high on friday and saturday, so were not really expecting enough rain to take down those pollen levels dramatically. So keep taking your medication, and bring the tissues with you, as well. Nothing going on at the moment on ultimate doppler radar. Lets check the future cast, we start out sunny today, the clouds roll in, by lunch Time Starting to see a lot of cloud cover, pretty overcast for the end of the day. Which will keep our temperature lower than yesterday. Probably in the lower 60s, and there is a chance of a pop up shower by tomorrow, late tonight, i should say, into tomorrow morning, weve got the chance of thunderstorm being maybe north and west of the city. And here we are thursday with a lot of cloud cover, sunshine emerging in the afternoon, chance of showers, chance of showers on friday morning, chance of thunderstorms, as well, so weve got warm air moving in, then cold front, and this all boiles down to is couple of unsettled weather days t wont be raining a lot.

We are seeing brighter spot for student in philadelphia schools who often like the resource that is they need to succeed. But two lower merion township schools are stepping up to help the school in kensington. I love when the project People Partner up. So as our Bill Anderson dis covered, about much needed supplies, but also friendship between some schools in the suburbs and some in the city. Heres bill. Webster, school in the middle of kensington. Some classes dont have paper, they dont have textbooks at all, they need more books, they need more crayons, scissors, they need anything that they can get. Will lot of ways lower merion is very different from kensington, but today student and administrators from two areas came together to see if one could help the other. Everyone should at least have the basic materials regardless of where youre born. Lower Merion High School makes it clear that theyre committed community service. So this year they decided to partner with Webster Elementary School and shoot a music video to raise awareness, supplies, and funds. The day started with kids as young as five, participating their New High School friends, and quickly evolved into an entire School Participating in the video shoot the smiles and change of scenery were good for the h Elementary School kids, but equally important were High School Student who recognize how lucky they are to have what they have. And the responsibility to offer a hand up if they can. We have so much excess stuff, that we dont need. And if we can take some that far stuff, give it to kids who dont have enough paper, we should do that. The video will be edited and post today social media, along with a link to fundraising page, people have already gun to drop off supplies for webster student, and hopefully donations will increase as the video spreads. Principals from both schools were glowing over the partnership that had been established, driven by student who just seem to get it, make a difference, do something that really matters, instead of just talking i feel bad or i dont do this or i would like to put it into place. So lower Merion High School Webster Elementary School, the suburbs, and the city, all coming together to try to make a difference in some young peoples lives for goodness sake. Im Bill Anderson.
