Also northbound on the lincoln drive, there is some debris right near wissahickon and starting to see delays on the schuylkill now coming into and out of the city, that stretch between belmont and city line avenue. And then south on the boulevard, accident at seventh, another one little further south toward the roosevelt boulevard. And south on 95, delays out of the northeast from academy in toward the cottman Construction Zone<\/a>, then extra heavy, into girard avenue. Where we have the Construction Zone<\/a> and a pothole that is in the center lane near girard avenue. Anyone in the center lane definitely slowing down, gridlock, right now no shoulder, no way to avoid that center lane. But just be aware of that if you head south this morning into the city. Mike, back over to you. Bob, i want to tell this, breaking news out of Delaware County<\/a>. Skyfox, up already this morning, and over springfield road springfield road, this is in olden, so well have more information as it comes into the news room here. But it looks like pretty much under control. No body acting frantic or anything. Well show you where it is. 6 33, Lower Moreland Police<\/a> calling it apparent suicide after man and woman are found dead yesterday morning. With a chain saw . It was the couples child actually who discovered the bodies inside their home. And then that child called 911. Jen is he on the story in lower moreland. Jenny . Reporter good morning, guys, every detail just horrifying in this case, the fact the couple was found by one of their children and mike like you said it was with a chain saw that at least one of these people was killed in a apparent homicide. Wait to go hear from police as to the death on both bodies. They are awaiting a autopsy. Those results should be back sometime today. But again these bodies, bloodied mutilated by a chain saw, found inside the familys country lane home in lower moreland yesterday before 1 00 p. M. Police are calling one of the deaths a homicide. Again, they are wait to go make the declaration on both deaths until after the autopsy is complete. Neighbors didnt want to talk on camera last night. They said they wanted to deal with the tragedy privately. The Montgomery County<\/a> District Attorneys Office<\/a> says the victims are 48 year old man and 43 year old woman, again fawn by one of their children. At this point police are not releasing the victims names. So we arent going to do that either. Details as to how and why all of this happened, were sitting, though, so well work on that later this morning as we wait to hear from police. Mike, al next. Tough story to be on, jenny, thank you. Convicted cop killer mumia jamal being treated for diabetes, very weak, 60 years old, under heavy guards after being rushed to the hospital yesterday. He is serving life in prison as you know for the 1981 murder of philadelphia Police Officer<\/a>, danny faulkner. Federal Appeals Court<\/a> throughout his death sentence. That was knack 2008. All right septa again septa police are trying to track down group of teens who got into a fight with a man on a platform. That was on monday. Yes. So we will show you video might be disturbing some viewers this morning. To steve keeley. Live with what started this attack. Well, spring break for this 60 year old man means breaking his jaw, because kids who werent yet out on spring break after school on monday got into some argument with him, just simply because he apparently stepped on one. Kids feet as he got on to the crowded subway train. And so one of the other kids that didnt like that, they started jawing back and forth. We dont know because the six year old the 06 year old isnt cooperating believe it or not. Whether or not he apologized, what was said afterward on the train ride here to center city, but you can see in the video, it shows six year old teenager, talking back and forth, teen taking the strap off his back pack, looking like he is ready to get physical on the train then teenage give bravely steps in, symptoms him not for long. Because after the train does stop at 15th street platform, when both got off the 60 year old is surrounded by all of the teens. While he is facing all of the others, the teen that he was facing off with on the train punches him from behind with enough for the to force to break his jaw, knock him off down to the floor. Either the concrete or the punch itself caused big cut where he needs lot of stitches in his face. The final point where there is a physical altercation it goes from verbal altercation to physical altercation is horrifying. There is i doubt there is any excuse for that casino of behavior. But i would love to know what led to up it before that point. We really want to talk to witnesses, we would love to talk to the puncher. Were looking for help in identifying all of the folks that you see on the video and would greatly appreciate the help of the public. And so teachers, classmates, and hopefully parents, since the 60 year old isnt helping hopefully they will help, see the teen, recognize him hopefully help police find him. Oddly, for some reason, the 60 year old at hahnemann not cooperating with the police, even though his jaw is busted and his face all stitched up, wont tell why he may think that this kid got to the point where he punched him in the face so hard. So we cant avoid news down here at septa headquarters as we go to the right. One of the sweep he is just caught on fire. Thats why my cameraman is coughing uncontrollably. So all kind of crazy stuff happening on the streets of center city. Guy trying to sweep up the sidewalk and his vehicle catches fire. Oh, my goodness. Wow. All right, be careful out there.
