about it. (nats fight) this was almost a fight between a freshman girl... and a senior... it got broken up by an administrator... but in the end... mom says the man who threw her daughter did way more harm than good. that is child abuse. cps would have came and picked me up if that would've been me on the video throwing my daughter like that. cps would have been at my door. the officer would have arrest me, and then i would have been on the news. but guess what? it's not me on the news. it's the administrator on the news. from this video -- it's hard to tell exactly what happened in the few seconds before the body slam... but now attorneys on every side are taking a close look it. the mom's lawyer. the school district's lawyers... and now, mom says, school police are forwarding it to the da's office. the girl was gone. her opponent was no longer there. what was this for? it was an angry administrator she says police told her that's assistant principal
4:01 pm
district isn't confirming or denying that... but all they will say is that the person in that video... has been moved to an administrative office... pending the completion of a police investigation. mom is still waiting for an apology. they haven't reached out to me. they haven't called me. you know what? i just want ccsd to know that y'all need to be a better leadership for the community. when we took a look at the emergency room paperwork... we saw the damage. the 13-year-old was diagnosed with a concussion... a sprained shoulder... and a strained back. it's very scary because you never know what can happen later on in life. and we wouldn't be sitting here looking at a child at home with injuries. we be planning a funeral. thank god because we didn't have to do that. but as for this? that was way out of pocket.
4:02 pm
night for las vegas... as unlv hosted the final presidential debate this campaign season. there were many memorable moments during this showdown... like the time donald trump said he may not accept the results, if he doesn't win. "chris wallace, fox the same commitment that you will absolutely accept the result of this election. donald trump, -r- presidential candidate: i will look at it at the time. i'm not looking at anything now. " "it was horrifying what he said on the debate stage tonight. one of our hallmarks has always been we accept the outcomes of our elections." trump and hillary clinton took the stage at the thomas and mack center. thousands of journalists were in town to cover the event, and hundreds of students volunteered to help out.
4:03 pm
winning the debate by a 13 point margin. we asked fox5 viewers who they thought won the debate on our website. 62 percent say donald trump was victorious... 38 percent saw hillary clinton as the winner. debate hangover. today.... everyone is recovering from the buzz from one of the biggest night's in las vegas history. now the las vegas convention and visitors authority says they're already starting to see the benfits of hosting such a big event. fox5's eric hilt talked with the lvcva and is live at the thomas and mack - eric it's much quieter there today than it was yesterday? it's not the type of hangover you typically see on a college campus -- today there's a debate hangover at unlv as the university and students and staff recover from last night's big event -- an event that many people agree was a big success.
4:04 pm
slowly turning back to normal... ((nats of workers)) as crews take down the national news sets that popped up on campus to cover the first presidential debate in nevada history. "it was historic not only for las vegas, it was historic for unlv, it was historic for the state of nevada." and jeremy handel with the las vegas convention and visitors authority it wasn't just historic -- it was huge success for the city. while donald trump and hillary clinton faced off at the thomas and mack, eyes around the world were on las vegas -- around 100 million sets of eyes, to be exact. "we havent seen a number yet but to achieve something like that for a single evening event would be the largest viewership in las vegas history" and handel says those viewers translate into more big events and more visiters from across the globe. "you cant buy that amount of advertising....and to have that go worldwide is amazing, becuase international travel is one of the things that we're
4:05 pm
coming to las vegas" but back on campus, many students told me despite weeks of concerns about cancelled classes and congested streets, things weren't that bad. "the parking lot was, it was like a mess in there, like they were fencing everything off, but other than that it was fine" they said hosting the debate was a great experience because of the exposure for the unlv... "it made it cool to come to school here to have such an important event on our campus" ...and for some other reasons. "i think it was cool having the debate c because...well i didn't have class all this week" las vegas of course handles a lot of big events from conventions to nascar races to music festivals... but coming up at 5 see what the lvcva says made this presidential debate especially unique. soc it was a hectic... but peaceful debate night for metro officers. we talked to sergeant jeff clark on this morning's "behind the badge"
4:06 pm
he told us officers ended up on a surprise duty after the show. "at the end one of the candidates wanted to go to a party, a rally, so at the last minute we scrambled to shut the i-15 down from 215 airport tunnel to craig road. i was sitting next to the nhp guys, you want to talk about cool calm and collected, they initally told me they didn't have the staff to do it, but we put it together and got a lot of units out there, and it was done on the fly! " metro police say they had no major incidents, and no arrests before, during, or after the debate!

lot of opportunities for witty tweets and creative memes. reid binion shows us the most memorable moments people are talking about today. the third and final presidential debate was a contentious one. the candidates did not shake hands... ...at the beginning... ...or at the end. discussions of policy were peppered with personal attacks... ...even on the fairly tame topic of social security. trump: "such a nasty woman." "nasty woman" -- quickly trending on twitter and generating memes. another trending moment came as trump reiterated his stance on illegal immigration: trump: " some bad hombres here and we're going to get them out." hash-tag "bad hombres" led to memes showing trump next to pictures of the hair color trend known as ombre. puppet memes -- emerging after this exchange: trump: "putin from everything i see has no respect for this person." clinton: "well, that's because he would rather have a puppet as president of the united states." trump: "no puppet. you're the puppet." but one of the most talked-about moments of the debate came when donald trump refused to say definitively that he would accept the

chris wallace / moderator: "there is a tradition in this country... that at the end of the campaign the loser concedes to the winner. are you saying you're not prepared now to commit to that principle?" trump: "what i'm saying is that i will tell you at the time." that reluctance to accept a potential loss led to this description by c-n-n political commentator van jones -- van jones / cnn political commentator: "this is a very sad night for the country. you can't polish this turd." i'm reid binion reporting. of course the most trending topic at the second presidential debate was undecided voter ken bone and his red sweater. bone had the opportunity to be at this debate... and we caught up with him at a unlv student watch party! i'm just glad i have this opportunity to encourage people to go out and vote. if you like what you saw tonight, go out and vote for one of the candidates, go vote for somebody else.
