and recorded the encounter. >> what we all watched on that shamefully shocking video is reprehensible, unforgivable, and inconsistent with everything that this district stands for. >> reporter: officer fields is now on unpaid administrative leave and banned from school properties pending the outcome of the investigation. >> this is someone that is physically in pain because of what she endured and the world watched what she endured as she literally flew across the classroom. >> reporter: but the sheriff says deputy fields received a culture of excellence award for proving to be an exceptional role model in 2014. he also says one of the videos captures the s sdent hitting the officer. >> it just shows that when the officer puts his hands on her initially she reaches up and she pops the officer with her fist. it makes you sick to your stomach when you see that initial video. but again, that's a snapshsh. >> repororr: the sheriff expects his internal investigation to be finished within the next day.

karen travers, abc news, washington. >> quite a graphic snapshot it is. some new clues in the meantime in the police shooting death of a south florida man. that man, corey jojos, was iting by his broken-down car about ten days ago when he was shot and killed by an off-duty officer who stopped to investigate. phone records show jones made a call to at&t's roadside assistance line at 3:10 a.m. now, that call lasted 53 minutes, but police say the shooting happened at 3:15 a.m. if the call was recorded, it may have captured the confrontation. jones's body was found about 100 feet from his vehicle. and here in new york funeral services today for the new york city police officer killed in the line of duty. dozens of officers saluted yesterday as randolph holder's coffin was brought into the church. holder was shot to death while chasing an armed robber last week. he'lle buried in his native guyana. just hours before tonight's republican debate more signs of donald trump in trouble.

york times" and cbs finds ben carson now in the lead with more than a quarter of republicans preferring the retired neurosurgeon. trump is a few points behind, and marco rubio, jeb bush, and carly fiorina can only muster single digits. carson's lead is within the poll's margin of error, and it has trump reacting. >> will you get the numbers u u iowa, pleaea? this is ridiculous. i am second. it's not like rrible. but i don't le being second. second is terrible. to me. >> oh, boy. the poll finds that carson has the support of evangelical christians and conservatives while trump does better among evan jell ka evangelicals and those without a college education. the house today is expected to make sure the next government shutdown threat happens after the presidential election. the budget agreement will be john boehner's last act as speaker of the house. it increases federal spending and raises the borrowing limit through 2017. the senate is expected to move quickly on the deal.

the broadcast and how fans find humor in the major league blunder. that's in "the mix" on this wednesday october 28th. >> announcer: from abc news, this is "world news now." good morning, everyone, on this busy wednesday. i'm reena ninan. >> and i'm kendis gibson. i'm excited because it is the early morning hours and people are probably still making their way home from this epic game 1 of the world series. >> was it 82 innings? >> just about. 82 1/2. i think that's how it's legal for them to end their game. right, jack? but yeah, it was the longest game 1 in history. >> in history, ever. >> yes. of the world series. and of course we'll have the highlights, or is it lowlights as mets fans will call it. >> there was a lot of stuff going on with that game. >> yeah. >> from technical difficulties to sad news. we're going to get to it all. >> to joe buck's beard. first, let's begin, of course, with the investigation into that violent arrest of a high school student caught on camera in a

>> an fbi investigation is under way right now after allegations of excessive force and racial bias. and the officer who slammed a 16-year-old girl to the floor and dragged her across the room. could find out today if he'll lose his job. with more here's abc's karen traverer >> reporter: one spring valley high school student who witnessed the police takedown tells abc news it all started when his teacher asked the female student to turn over her phone and she refused. >> she said, "i'm not doing anything," you know, "please. you don't have to take my phone." >> reporter: the teacher then asked a school administrator to help. he also asked the student to leave. and again, she refused. that's when ben fields, the school resource officer, got called in, and things escalated. >> you're going to come with me, or i'm going to make you. >> reporter: cell phone video shows fields grabbing the student by the neck and throwing her across the floor. >> hands behind your back. >> reporter: several frightened classmates grabbed their phones and recorded the encounter.

>> what we all watched on that shamefully shocking video is reprehensible, unforgivable, and inconsistent with everything that this district stands for. >> reporter: officer fields is now on unpaid administrative leave and banned from school properties pending the outcome of the investigation. >> this is someone that is physically in pain because of what she endured and the world watched what she endured as she literally flew across the classroom. >> reporter:ut the sheriff says deputy fields received a culture of excellence award for proving to be an exceptional role model in 2014. he also says one of the videos captures the student hitting the officer. >> it just shows that when the officer puts his hands on her initially she reaches up and she pops the officer with her fist. it makes you sick to your stomach when you see that initial video. but again, that's a snapshot. >> reporter: the sheriff expects his internal investigation to be finished within the next day. karen travers, abc news, washington.

is. some new clues in the meantime in the police shooting death of a south florida man. that man, corey jones, was waiting by his broken-down car about ten days ago when he was shot and killed by an ofduty officer who stopped to investigate. phone records show jones made a call to at&t's roadside assistance line at 3:10 a.m. now, that call lasted 53 minutes, but police say the shooting happened at 3:15 a.m. if the call was recorded, it may have captured the confrontation. jones' body was found about 100 feet from his vehicle. and here in new york funeral services today for the new york city police officer killed in the line of duty. dozens of officers saluted yesterday as randolph holder's coffin was brought into the church. holder was shot to death while chasing an armed robber last week. he'll be buried in his native guyana. just hours before tonight's republican debate more signs of donald trump in trouble. a national poll from the "new york times" and cbs finds ben carson now in the lead with more than a quarter of republicans

preferring the retired neurosurgeon. trump is a few points behind, and marco rubio, jeb bush, and carly fiorina can only muster single digits. carson's lead is within the poll's margin of error, and it has trump reacting. >> will you get the numbers up, iowa, please? this is ridiculous. i am second. it's not like terrible. but i don't like being second. second is terrible. to me. >> oh, boy. the poll finds that carson has the support of evangelical christians and conservatives while trump does better among evangelicals and those without a college education. the house today is expected to make sure the next government shutdown threat happens after the presidential election. the budget agreement will be john boehner's last act as speaker of the house. it increases federal spending and raises the borrowing limit through 2017.

combat and clearly means the pentagon is not satisfied with the fight against isis so far. martha raddatz, abc news, washington. a deadly crash last night on an eastern pennsylvania highway involving a bus filled with college students. eyewitnesses say the bus carrying the lehigh university crew team was rear-ended by a car. it lost control, flipped over several times before landing on its roof. none of the students had serious injuries, but the driver of the car was killed. former house speaker dennis hastert is expected to plead guilty today as part of a deal to avoid a trial. investigators say hastert sexually abused several teenage boys and then, a few years ago, started to pay one of them more than a million dollars in hush money. there's a good chance hastert will have to serve time as part of the deal, though sentencing is not expected in the chicago courtroom today. formerap mogul suge knight and comedian kat williams have pleaded not guilty to robbery

charges. they appeared before a los angeles judge accused of stealing a celebrity photographer's camera last year. knight remains jailed in a separate murder case that was filed after he ran over two men outside a compton burger stand in january. one man was killed and the other seriously injured. a mega merger could turn walgreen's into an even bigger giant in the drugstore business. walgreen's is already the nation's largest pharmacy chain. now it wants to buy rite aid, the third biggest one. if the deal goes through, walgreen's will have 18,000 stores. the deal is worth nearly $9.5 billion. given the size of the deal, it's expected to draw scrutiny from the government's antitrust regulators. for now rite aid stores will keep that name. >> that's a big merger. here's a great story that fits under the simple headline "oops." >> oops indeed. it's at an art museum in italy. that party aftermath. all those champagne bottles were not what was left over from a wild event.

that was the work of art itself. it was called "where are we going to dance tonight?" >> the problem -- the museum's cleanup crew got a little too eager, wound up cleaning everything. everything. luckily they separated everything for recycling purposes. the museum says the work is going to be re-created. but you know, if i walked into this and i was a cleaning crew -- >> yes. >> -- i would be angry and want to put up a sign, "your mama does notive here." like you know, clean up after yourself. >> i would be bummed that there are empty bottles. >> oh. there is that. >> but there is that saying that art is in the eye of the beholder. and clearly, the cleanup crew was like this is a bunch of trash. all right. well, coming up later in "the mix," what chevy chase and homer simpson have to do with game 1 of the world series.

a missing sleepwalker in

colorado has been found nine miles from home. investigators think the 19-year-old walked most of that, although she may have also taken a bus, all of this while asleep. she was missing for more than two hours, much longer than most sleepwalking episodes. the young woman was unharmed when she woke up, even though she left her shoes at home. the latest treatment for autism could be as simple as a nasal spray. doctors in australia tested oxytocin. it's a so-called love hormone drug. on a small group of children with autism all under the age of 8. researchers say those children showed significant social and behavioral improvements. specialists worldwide are cautiously optimistic about this limited study and await further research. wow. that could be a big breakthrough if that's in fact -- >> it could be. and this is a controversial one. it's a health trend and is being called into question this morning after a woman was found las vegas frozen to death. >> it's called cryotherapy. exposing the body to ultra cold temperatures for short bursts of time.

here's abc's clayton sandell. >> reporter: chelsea ake-salvacion was alone after hours at this las vegas cold therapy salon. police say the 24-year-old manager stepped inside a cryotherapy chamber last week running as cold as minus 240 degrees for a three-minute treatment. but her frozen body wasn't discovered until the next morning. >> i was told by the coroner that night that they wanted to reassure me and my family that she did not suffer and that she died instantly. >> reporter: whole-body cryotherapy is promoted as a treatment for pain, improving circulation, even weight loss. stars like lindsay lohan and star athletes like lebron james have used it. but there is little evidence to prove it works. the chamber is designed to keep your hd above bitter cold nitrogen gas. a police report says it appears she did not have the machine set to the proper height, she did not get enough oxygen and she suffocated. the coroner says determining the official cause of death is still

the salon is now in trouble with nevada authorities who order td -- ordered it to shut down. clayton sandell, abc news, denver. >> what a strange therapy. >> i know. a lot of people sort of throw cold water on this. it's just not a -- something that people say really works. butty e -- but lebron james -- the cavs did beat the bulls. he uses it. it was in the piece. so people say it's much more effective than a cold ice bath. >> i just don't know that it really does anything other than, you know, freeze your nethers off. >> nethers? >> nethers. >> i haven't heard that word in a while. >> that's what i call it. coming up in our next half hour, a new warning for millions of drivers. >> your tires could have been recalled without you knowing about it. and they could be -- they could be a lot older than you actually think. what could you do to protect yourself and not just your nethers. halloween, it's national chocolate day.

>> and what better way to celebrate than a handmade luxury chocolate bar from the kitchen of new york's plaza hotel. nbc's genevieve shaw-bro is in our insomniac kitchen. >> reporter: it's everyone's favorite holiday, national chocolate day, and i'm here at the beautiful palm court at the plaza hotel. i'm about to make a super fancy bar. >> this is such a special place for me. i've been coming here with my mom every year. what are we making today? >> a sophisticated snickers bar. we're going to make the peanut butter from scratch. >> oh, great. >> roasting them helps to give a better flavor. so i'm going to put this in the oven right now. >> great. [ bell ] >> so the peanuts are warm. >> right in the food processor. >> right in the food processor. you've got to break up the peanuts first. what we're trying to achieve is

a crumb-like texture. almost like couscous. we'll pulse it on and off. it will start to clump up even more and what will happen is it will form a thick peanut butter. you add the sweetener. we're going to add honey and a little bit of seasoning. we're going to add some salt. already there, the peanut butter. we'll add a little bit more. but you can see it's already starting to come together. >> if you have a food processor it's not terribly complicated to make their own handmade peanut butter. >> absolutely. >> that's delicious. >> now we have a chocolate sugar dough that we already baked. just want to do a couple lines. place a few of the peanuts. now we go on to the caramel which we're going to set it up on top. >> ooh. look at all that sugary goodness. >> what we're doing now is cleaning the sugar because a lot of sugar's naturally dirty. >> this looks so good. >> place the heavy cream. now we're going to pour it

stir that up for me. and we're just going to place that over the top of the caramel which is >> right, right, right. >> the chocolate decoration that we made. >> that's going to be very pretty. we're going to go upstairs now into the beautiful palm court and taste it there. mm. wow. this is incredible. well, jacques, thank you so much for being with us and showing me how to make an amazing dessert. >> it looks delectable. you've got to try this. they serve this, as she said, in hotel in the evenings for $16. >> 16 bucks for a snicker bar. you would expect. >> it is very good. and what a great holiday, national chocolate day. if it was socially acceptable i'd lather myself in chocolate. but it would just be awkward. actually doing that.

move in that cart. so that could explain the weight gain. so let's not judge or make comments about poor hank. but he did make it onto first class. he didn't have to walk too far down the aisle to his seat. >> i'm amazed he got to hang out in first class, have a few of the bubblies. >> well, kendis, every dog has his day. okay. let's move on. that's great. ikea. they decided, you know, what why get all these imaginative adults to come up with their new toy line. they decided to actually make it toys that kids come up with. so they decided to get creative with it. they have used kids' ideas to create their new line of stuffed animals. and there you have it. colorful set there. >> very nice. unicorn. >> from the drawing to the stuffed animals. >> these kids were spot on. look at the replicas. they look pretty accurate. >> yeah. and the alien monster. >> i want to show you the burger stuffed with reese's peanut butter cups. looks pretty weird.
