Say the four overpowered and assaulted at least one guard stealing keys and a personal car. That car seen sideswiping a jeep and then abandoned. Three of the four were arrested yesterday morning in bridgeton. That is huggins home town. And they did not say if the ambush and escape took place in the secure area or how the four managed to beat security measures there. They say that issue is being investigated. Im not prepared to criticize the operation at harbor fields detention facility. We are still trying to gather all the information and trying to gather the facts. The question remains, how did the four breakout . The prosecutor is make that part of his investigation as well. Apparently the state of new jersey operates the facility for Atlantic County and we approached the state for comment and so far no comment yet. Live in mays landing, john rawlins, channel 6 action news. Thank you. Of course our conference continues at 6abc. Com and well continue to bring you the latest detailed as soon as we get them and watch more video from the massive mannt along morning of the escape. And former Homeland Security secretary tom ridge is in a hospital in austin, texas. He had an emergency heard procedure this morning. The 72 was at the Governors Association conference when he called for help from his hotel. And he had to have an emergency cardiac carriagization. And he was governor from 1995 to 2001. And developing now mistrial that is the outcome of the federal Corruption Case against bob mendez. That mistrial was declared by the judge after they said they were hopelessly deadlocked on all counts. Mendez was accused of accepting gifts from his long time friend in exchange for political influence and both men denied the charges and the jurors all felt strongly in their positions and convictions and could not compromise and the judge says he would not seek a partial verdict and speaking to the jurors mendez held back tears and thanks his family and legal team and colleagues for their support. The way this case started was wrong. The way it was investigated was wrong. The way it was prosecuted was wrong. And the way it was tried was wrong as well. The u. S. Department of justice has been investigating mendez for nearly five years. Today a spokeswoman told abc news they appreciate the jurys service and will carefully consider the next steps and report back to the court. No immediate word if prosecutors will refile charges. All right. A man from limerick is accused of possessing more than 3,000 explicit images of children. A Crime Task Force arrested jeffrey gibb on child pornograp pornography. Officers tracked the illegal images to gibbs website. And Authorities Say that two Pennsylvania State troopers were justified in a shootout in plainfield township. They issued the ruling after seeing video of the entire incident involving corporal essential kelly and the suspect clary. He was shown resisting arrest and staying down after failing a field sobriety test. And despite being tased twice he still reached for his gun and then broke free and ran to his own vehicle and got his own gun. Without hesitation reaches in and comes out shooting. We clearly see that the initiation of the use of the firearm was by the defendant. He reached for the gun and came out of his arm firing at the police officers. Morgan ely says they had every right to defend themselves. And Corporal Kelly remains hospitalized today. Time for a check of the accuweather forecast. Started rainy and sun and then clouds, a little bit of everything. Cecily tynan is in for adam joseph. Right now its not that bad. The winds are still a bit a factor and they are beginning to die down and we have pretty impressive wind gusts this afternoon. Philadelphia a peak wind gust spu Miles Per Hours. And allentown 35 and trenton 39 and wilmington a peak wind gust of 37 Miles Per Hour. And those winds will be pulling in some cooler air and currently the temperature 57 degrees and normal high is 56. So about where we should be for this time of year. As you look to the north and west temperatures in the 40s and 30s and 20s. And that is the air mass that will be moving our way in the overnight hours. And the evening planner when are you stepping out you need to bundle up. The temperatures dont tell the whole story. Low 50s dropping into the 40s and winds from the north northwest 12 to 25 Miles Per Hour. That make its feel cooler and overnight low down to 38 in philadelphia but we really never lose the winds overnight. So the wakeup windchill will be between 27 and 32 degrees. Tomorrow morning you do want to bundle up and the next three days its either breezy or down right windy and im tracking wet weather for the weekend. The wettest period looks to be saturday night. Ill have more details on that coming up in the full accuweather forecast. Cecily thank you. Well, president trumps tax plan cleared the first major hurdle in washington, d. C.

We are live now on capitol hill with the latest. Reporter republicans will still need to get a tax bill passed through the senate than could prove to be a more difficult battle as they can afford to lose two votes and two senators are wavering on support. We are taking action today. Its time for this old broken tax code to go. A step toward the finish line for republicans looking for reform taxes for the enof the year. President trump rallied support at capitol hill ahead of the house vote and republicans afterwards overwhelmingly approved their tax plan. And its all about tax relief and fairness and simplicity. And about easing the stress and anxiety that is in this country. The bill that republicans board to the floor today its not tax reform and its not even a tax cut its a tax scam it would cut the Corp Tax Rate to 20 and a number of new york and new jersey republicans voted against the measure concerned about the plans to eliminate state and local Tax Deductions and rife with criticism from the democrats adding to the deficit over the next decade and that republicans are padding the pockets of the conference at the expense of low to middle americans. 36 million americans will receive a tax increase under this bill. And there is also criticism coming from the republicans in the senate and wisconsin senator ron johnson says he cannot favor the bill because it favors big corpses and Susan Collins has concerns on Health Care Premiums if the obama mandate is repealed.
