"uh-i don't know what it looked like- it came up from behind me." tibia going outside his leg." al mazza..heard the blood curdling crash. "he's over here and the bike is 100 foot down there with the car." both men..even more amazed..by what happened next. the guy who hit him-got out of his car- ran up to the cop-did "he was like i'm really sorry- hopefully you're okay."

small tells us..that sounds more like the guy..she knows. "and he has a heart-a big heart. no matter what-you can be someone who'll stab him in his back and he'll still be there fir you." that was chris king reporting. the officer is okay. he was treated and released.... from the hospital. the driver.. was arrested.. and charged.... with driving under the influence of drugs. new at 11- a local uber driver says he immediately noticed something was wrong when he got in his car to go to work.. so he decided to look ove home surveillance video. what he found was a young man.. rummaging through his car around 5:30 in the morning near summerlin parkway and town center. at one point.. it appears something spooks him and he runs from the car.. then returns a few seconds later. incredibly.. the car owner says nothing was taken. he also admits he left the car unlocked.. but after this.. he won't do that again. also new at 11.. a similiar crime caught on camera near blue diamond and el capitan. you can see a young man walk up

(bryan switches to front camera) this is so crews can so we decided to test them for you tonight to figure which will work best for you. the marked detour will take you direction we are heading now which is onto the 15 north to turn around at d street. that took us 6 minutes the first time we went though. you can also get off the 95 at valley view... rancho and mlk and work your

on the 15 south. rancho was the quickest of those routes... at five and a half minutes. valley view took us a little over 7 minutes and mlk was slower at 10 minutes. another good thing to keep in mind is you will not be able to get on the 15 south from either rancho or mlk either because of this road so if you have to pass through the area this weekend... plan to give yourself a little more time. reporting live, bryan callahan 13 action news. wynn las vegas is being hit with a lawsuit... accused of discriminating against a worker.... with post traumatic stress

amazon. and that's leading to sticker shock, if you re-order on the wrong day. for example: folgers coffee was $6 in june. then it jumped to $12 in august. and then back down to $7 in september. unfortunately, you can't lock in a fixed rate with amazons subscribe and save program. the new york times says amazon's prices vary according to supply and demand. so you're at the mercy of their there's no doubt subscribe and save is convenient. but if you're looking to save your money, the only real option is to skip the automatic refills, and buy the items manually, while the price is right. otherwise, watch your credit card statement for unexpected price hikes. for 13 action news, i'm beth fisher, helping you so you "don't waste your money."> your voice..
