Tractor trailer and another vehicle, the problem they have thousand is that this tractor trailer smacked into this concrete pillar here and they are worried about Structural Integrity. They probably shouldnt have any cars rolling across the top there. Zoom on in, im almost positive that is mount laurel road interchange, here as you can see guardrail is all messed up. They are only letting through that far left lane of stuck traffic. Now traffic was stuck for over an hour, they had to land a medical helicopter on the lanes here to assist the injured. The as we look live here only that far left lane of the the southbound lanes of the turnpike getting on through. So lets go to the happens, what does this mean for you to head out the front door . Typically heading southbound on the turnpike, jump off at exit number five, and use 295, as your alternate. Again, accident scene is approaching exit number four, they are letting by that one lane but that is only the stuck traffic that has been out there for over an hour and a half, two hours, and it the is a couple miles long at this point and they are forcing everybody off at exit number five your best bet jump off at exit number five and use 295. Otherwise we are looking at 20 minute delays on septas west trenton line and they had to make rail repairs. Elwyn line first train running without delays boulevard northbound accident at c street.

They brought witnesses back which were a barmaid and one customer inside along with the bar manager when this guy comes in with the hood tied real tight around his face to hold up the place. The reason he was able to steel bar managers gun was because he immediately got in the scuffle with the bar manager who thought this guy will rob us and he could not get his gun out in time. This guy shoots him twice, point blank right in the the chest, abe kills him and then steals his wallet, car keys and gun and then pulls the gun and barmaid has her empty the register of the 175 bucks and then he runs away. Only hope they have is they have fingerprints, maybe some Surveillance Video from some of the other businesses on all four corners here at 23rd and indiana in the section of philadelphia and maybe this guy, lauren and thomas is stupid enough to maybe use any of the identification or credit cards, in that wallet that he stole and seen doing that at another place of business. Hopefully he messed up. I want to get this straight. He came there with one and left with two. He has a revolver, one of those where shells dont come out of the barrel because there was no bullet shells here. After he shoots this 46 yearold manager, that manager was armed, but never got his gun out and he he stole his gun. Lets hope we get a clear image.
