We all know john wilkes booths store, how he ended abraham agains life and his presidency and this is the first secret plot to kill Abraham Lincoln is at the start of the presidency, before it begins. Why does it happen . When abraham i can is going to raise his right hand and become the sixteenth president of the United States the only way he can do that is take a train from his home in springfield and go to washington dc.

That is the setup but what i think is interesting is the action, just where it begins. We open on this train and it is speeding through

Neighborhood later this morning. We saw one surveillance camera that police said they were going to be looking at today. Police tell us the victim, a 17yearold, had stopped in the 5600 block of Warren Street to pick up a friend. This was around 1 00 this morning. They were about to drive out of a parking space when two men came up to the car. One tapped on the window with a gun and announced a robbery. The victim tried to drive away, and thats when police say the gunman fired three shots, all three hitting the car, one of them hitting the victim in the arm. He was able to drive himself three miles down the road to saint christophers hospital. At last check he was listed in stable condition. The shooter ran about 50 feet after the car leaving those spent shell casings behind over the distance on that highway. Again, police talking to the victim and the three passengers who were in that car. They say both of these suspects were in disguise so, again, theyre looking at these surveillance
