So now we have to have good weather for sun take, dave. I can do my best, yes. A little bit of green but it is st. Patricks day weekend here. Look at that little bit of green. That is the rain that we have, dancing through, it is moving on out, if you have to get outside you may not need umbrella anymore. Falling apart, closeup view, just the right amount at New Castle County a and continuing to move through philadelphia, right now that heaviest rain is, pretty much through camden, gloucester and Burlington County. It is moving out, folks, temperatures are in the 50s, they will quiet a little bit today with that sunshine but little cooler breeze out there, wind gusting close to 30 miles an hour. No records today but just a a little warmer then average. Number today not quite a ten. We will put it at a seven, bob kelly. Dave, good morning. 7 03 on this friday morning. The getting out the front door, it is not that bad right now. Heres a live look at 422, eastbound, starting to see some volume popping from collegeville in through king of prussia. Jammo on the 42 freeway, northbound, heavy from approaching 55 into 295, an accident there in to the work zone our top story has been the Regional Rails, good news, services restored on the Paoli Thorndale line and expect delays from 60 minutes to 90 minutes on the first trains out of the gate but at least the trains are running after that hot mess we had last night. Also expect delays on amtrak, keystone line, again, this all as a result of the amtrak power problems from last evening. The wilmington line running with 90 minute delays on that first train. There is a live look at 42 freeway in toward the city, bridges looking fine and so far so good at philly international, mike and alex, back to you. Where is this woman . Septa related story a a terrifying scene where a woman is ripped off the september bus. Police say she was taken by force and if you look at the window you can see the mans hands, smashed the window. Yep, steve, these two know each other. Probably, and most likely and hear scott small say that because bus driver and everybody on the bus thinks they do. Heres what you are talking about. Heres something i just learned do you see these suction cups. This is a double payneed window. It is not to protect somebody inside from anybody like this happening but to protect the window from people etching and scrolling on it. But in this case even though this guy smashed, shot third window by punching inn it and slapping it so hard he could not get through to the woman trying to get through on the seat on the other side. What happens is when he could not do that he got frustrated. This is 2 00 in the morning on roosevelt boulevard up in the northeast near adams avenue. Is there other people on the bus. Shes telling the people, the driver this guy is crazy. While the bus driver takes off thinks he got away from the socalled crazy guy, next thing a couple blocks later is there a pontiac grand am or grand prix with temporary delaware tags pulling in front have of him to the point where he is just forcing him to stop the bus in the middle of the roosevelt boulevard in the outer lanes and the guy gets out, again, and at that point, would the man is like let me off, let me off, and then there is people waiting for the bus, there is people at the bus stop going what is going on on here. Heres inspector scott small. According to the bus driver, he feels very confident that they knew each other. Reporter did she say let me off the bus because bus driver wouldnt have let her off the bus or open up the front door, but was she demanding to get off the bus. She did say let me off the bus but where she was let off a bus was a stop, and there were people ready to get on and some were ready to get off. It was a normal stop. She did say i will get off or let me off. Reporter and, all right, i will go to two things. I will go to the Surveillance Video first of all, this is detective when the bus was driven over here to the frankford transportation center. Septa Police Detectives instantly got on and looking at Surveillance Video, to see the outside of the the bus because you can see maybe a better description of the car were talking about. You can see what happened. Come back to the live picture here. You can see one of the surveillance cameras here pointed right at the door on this bus. So they have video of the guy punching the women, dragging her off the bus and dragging her in the back seat of the silver car. Now let me give you a description of the car again, folks, if you are watching. It doesnt matter what the plate is because the plate does not show up anywhere. It is a temporary paper, white and black writing, delaware temporary tag that you get at a dealer when you go a buy a car or used car. They had that exact number from plenty of witnesses writing the plate down accounts and they have video of it, and it doesnt come back as anything. They ran tonight four states just in case it wasnt delaware, new jersey, pennsylvania, maryland, nothing. So it is a silver or metallic gray, Pontiac Grand Prix or grand am, they have an estimate of the years of 2005 through 2008, and they really want to find this guy. They have a good picture of the guy. And, by this morning before lunch and put that out. Maybe a better description and a picture of the car as well. They think that they are treating this as a kidnapping. That is why the feds are in on this case but they think it is a violent domestic abduction if you want to call that it but any man who hits a woman deserves, to be in prison for a long time. You cannot be doing that stuff even if you are angry at that somebody. Steve, i think if we saw that video as soon as possible, right . We can edit her out of it. Somebody probably knows this guy. Reporter it is just like monday morning, mike i was like we will get churchs video and i got it from the police at 10 52. Once it already comes in and you have to wait for higher ups. You have to wait for tom nestle. They just cant throw something out there they have to make sure it is okay. They dont realize right away because they want to get the guy before they know that he necessary they are looking for him. So sometimes that is why they dont put it out. But often it comes out late morning a after we get off the air. How could he not know that the cops are looking for him, after what he did at 2 30 this morning. It seems like time is of the essence here. Reporter you are right, exactly in a kidnapping case. But this guy clearly doesnt care. He is doing this in front of the people on the busiest highway on the city on the roosevelt boulevard. Driving like a loon particular on the boulevard to get the bus to stop. This guy is not the thinking clearly anyway. All right, steve let us know when we get that video. Bullets flying again last night, not in philadelphia but in trenton. Four people have been shot. The it happened early this morning around 2 30 on oliver avenue where dave kinchen is. Dave. I just got off the phone with one of my Police Sources in trenton. We can confirmed five people were shot, that is right, five here at the the general area of oliver and cool ledge. This is where were told this all happened at an apartment complex where three women and two men were sitting outside 2 21 this morning. We are told there was some sort of argument that is what police tell us and someone drove up, two men drove up in a black acura, one got out and fired several shots from the handgun. We were told all five victims were hit in various locations, one person hit in the chest one in the back and one in the shoulder and leg. One person had a grazed wound. Were told they were all survived. Lets go to the video as we talk about this and police are checking surveillance cameras, as well, there is two in the area, they have not gotten footage yet but they are looking for the shooter and vehicle. We understand a black acura. Two people in that vehicle. One who got out and fired shots. We dont know if it is the driver or the passenger, but we do know from witness, neighbors also who didnt want to go on camera that there was an argument they overheard in this area, as well. All are expect to survive. Three women, two men, shot after a dispute that took place, police are looking for, two people in a car, one being the shooter, looking for a black acura. If anyone has any information give Trenton Police a call. That is very latest from trenton. Dave, thank you. Another Republican Debate last night, the 12th one, and so this time around even though the past debates have been childish, and sophomoreic, they were darn entertaining. Last night there were none of that. Some people say they were trying to be more president ial. Is that what was going on down there, is that what you think, garrett, down there in d. C. Reporter it was certainly more president ial. Folks on twitter saying it was so president ial that it was boring. A lot of it had to do with donald trump. He was not candidate that were used to see. For marco rubio whose entire campaign is on the line in florida he was more of the candidate we saw a few months ago not having those personal attacks and insult at donald trump hoping that he can turn things around to back when he was rising in the polls over these last few days, before florida. I cannot believe how civil it has been up here. Reporter trying to look more president ial, a much more subdued donald trump and marco rubio laid off personal attacks and insults last night and focused on the issues including islamic streamism. We have a serious, serious problems. We have large portions of a group of people, islam, large portions want to use very, very harsh means. Im not interested in being politically correct but im interested in being correct. Problem is president s just cant say anything they want. It has consequence is here and around the world. There were plenty of opportunities for candidates to attack each other and when they dit was less direct then we have seen in past debates. If you have a candidate who has been funding liberal democrats and funding the washington establishment, it is very hard to imagine how suddenly this candidate will take on washington. This debate focused on some of the key issues for florida voters, cuba, immigration, and Social Security. There are more 18 years old who believe they have a better chance of seeing a ufo then a Social Security check and we have lot of seniors who are very nervous. Reporter trump responding to allegation that is his language and tone at his rallies inn encouraging violence after a Trump Supporters was caught on camera punching a protester earlier this week. We have some protesters who are bad dudes. They have done bad things. They are swinging, they are really dangerous and they get in there and they start hitting people. Controversy along with all of the others though has not scared off one former president ial candidate from endorsing trump, doctor ben carson, nearly the political, polar opposite of donald trum in terms of the demeanor is scheduled to endorse donald trum this morning. That will happen today. All right. We will check back with you. Lets go back to what garrett was talking about at a trump rally, a guy, do you see the guy being thrown out basically. Umhmm. Of an event. He had just been punched. He was just punched by a guy. Now we have the video of that punch. North carolina sheriff said he will investigate what happened. They were trying to take him out. Man in the cowboy hat there. Punching him in the face, with his elbow. Yes, he elbows him. Police and sheriffs there they took the guy walking up and got him out. Some people were complaining they didnt do anything to the guy that did punching. The deputies did not see the punch, which happened in fayetville North Carolina because they are at the stop of the stairs there waiting for the protester to come up. How they miss that had punch, im not sure. Im in the sure why they think he fell to the ground. Man who threw the punch in the hat was arrested on assault and Disorderly Conduct charges. So it was somewhat resolved. Today, family friend and people who knew, nancy reagan, will say their final goodbyes in southern california. A private Funeral Services will be held today for the former first lady. Relatives of the president s dating all the way back to john f. Kennedy are expected to attend todays services. And, you will remember reagan died sunday at the age of 94 from congestive heart failure. She was 94. All of our living first ladies will be there. It will be quite a beautiful event. Cameras not allowed. Dave warren, what is up. A little bit of rain. That is all that is expect, it is fall a apart right now. If you have seen, it the is just about done the. Only place to see it now is moving through parts of the camden and Burlington County this will be slowly moving out. Philadelphia is all clear but it continues to move south along the ac expressway, just a light shower. Otherwise, it will be a windy day to day, temperatures have dropped a bit, 58 degrees, that is a shower that comes through. Wind will pick up a witt, that will be the case this afternoon and then that will try to cool things off a bit. No more records today. No more record high temperatures. Still fairly warm above 60 degrees and once that wind dies down, and the sun goes down, then the temperature will really drop off tonight. A little chill tomorrow morning, and it is not felt a number that we will feel in sometime here, it has been very, very mild in the morning but we could be talking about 30s tomorrow morning. Fiftys and 60s right now, heading towards the mid 60s this afternoon, and the showers will clear out. There is no more rain in the forecast, and so enjoy it today. Now tricky on sunday for the parade. You can see that here at 12 00 e clouds increase and maybe a chance of a shower, just a chance, of a light shower, and late this weekend. Certainly no rain tomorrow, it is all clear but here comes the clouds, sat kay night and a few light showers developing sunday midday very, very light but a passing shower is possible. We will watch that closely. Seven day forecast has temperatures cooler tomorrow and then backup to 60 sunday with that shower chance. A rainy day on monday, and, then mix to have sun and clouds on tuesday. Wednesday looks like a good day, 07 degrees, turning milder, cooler, 66 degrees, there, on thursday. Bob how does the roads look. Well, we have a couple of issues, not a lot of problems on a friday morning. A live look at the blue route 476, starting to see volume rolling through saint david, issue on the 42 freeway north bound accident between 55 and 295, causing a delay, and good news, services restored on the Paoli Thorndale line, however, septa is running with significant delays during the morning rush hour, and also, amtrak power problems, leaving with us delays on the keystone line, heading out toward, harris burning. The first trains out of the wilmington newark line running with 90 minute delays and now just in from path the co they are running with 30 minute delays on all a, of the eastbound trains, live look here at the freeway coming in toward the city, delays coming out of the suburbs like 422 eastbound maybe from oaks in through 202. Otherwise we are looking good, on i95, no problems at the airport, mike and alex, back to you good hey bob kelly, thank you. 7 17. Eagles debuted some new players, Rodney Mccloud and chase daniel were introduced to the media. These are along with the others, that were brought in on the first day of free agency to address the teams biggest means. Yes. So head coach Doug Pederson was quick to stop any speculation as we talk about yesterday with chase daniel and sam bradford a big quarterback war but no, pederson came out and said i dont want to talk about this but. But right now Going Forward sam bradford is number one. Chase daniel is number two. Were working on the number three. I just want to put that out there right now. Where does that put mark sanchez. They are working on number three. Wow. Is he gone. So chase told reporters he is excited, and you you know what, he is on the back cover of the daily news this morning. I got the to tell you that is a nice looking beard, dont you think. Yes, it is nice good if i was going to grow a beard or if i were to grow a beard would i like to look like that. It is interesting, he said he always looked up to sam bradford because they played against each other, he missouri, bradford oklahoma. Bradford won a lot of those. He said, it the is an honor to play together. You went to school with this guy. Sec. Yes. You were on campus with this guy. Something like that. University of missouri. You know his wife.

The wildcats, move on in the big east tournament as they won yesterday, yes, villanova and georgetown played for the third time this year, yesterday. And just like last two times, nova pulled out the win. It wasnt easy this was kind of tight. Villanova trailing by six at one point in the second half. They did rally, very late in the game and came out with a pretty good margin. Eightyone67. Boom. I would like to say it is very pleasing with the way we handled a very hungry aggressive team. And we didnt change anything up, we just kept getting these guys on the defense and we were getting our shots to fall. We will use this as an experience, you know, we did it before. We need these games to make a run. You know tough to beat a team three times in one year. Villanova will play providence tonight at 6 30 in the garden. Nova lost to prove dense at Wells Fargo Center in overtime in january. That was the game that was pushed back one day due to the blizzard. But they were able to beat them the second time they played. Sure they did. Now, it
