>> anti-blackness, in the city and the country and it continues to be pervasive. if it does we need to address it. it won't get any better unless we start talking about it. >> again, we saw protesters as late as 10:00 last night then they dispersed still largely peaceful protest with more than 600 people, police say their mission was to let the first amendment right go on. and of course, the protesters' mission was to get their message out. i think both did very good job at that. reporting live outside city hall, jan carabeo, "eyewitness news". baltimore's police commissioner said the curfew will remain in effect through the weekend. it seems to have kept the streets calm so far a woman with a bullhorn toll people to move back, go home. the streets were mostly cleared shortly after the curfew went into effect at 10:00 last night. >> now several media outlets are asking the baltimore police department to release more information about the death of freddie gray to the public.

no word when or if that information will be released. but, yesterday the baltimore police department delivered its report in the death of gray, to the maryland state prosecutor's office. this is new to us right now the transport van gray was inside of on the day of his arrest made a previously unreported stop before it arrived at the police station. also a prisoner in the van said gray could be heard banking against the walls of the vehicle. >> police will be staying in baltimore little longer. maryland governor hogan requested the troopers insist they stay with peace-keeping efforts. troopers and personnel will now be in maryland until the fifth of may. >> new this mornings, one person being treated for possible smoke inhalation after this fire in southwest philadelphia. that fire broke out before 2:30 this morning near 50th and kingsessing. investigators say the fire started in the back of that house, the cause still being looked into.

pressure, counter clockwise in its motion, so when you sit here in the delaware vale, on the northern fringe of, that your winds flow is on shore. is it tends to bring in more mist, but as far as kent and sussex counties are concerned yes, dealing with that rain and steadier fashion throughout the next say hour or two. but it is all moving essentially to the southeast. soap got to watch out for ponding and maybe poor travel. slow travel out there. fifty-one currently at the airport, little cooler where skies are actually little clearer up at the poconos and around the region we go, yes somewhat of a cool day. that should actually reach 63 degrees in philadelphia here today. we will keep you limited down to the lower 60s, 56 down the shore, and up in the poconos at best about 60 degrees. justin, over to you. >> good morning, katie. here we go, get away friday, looks like road conditions okay around the city you saw on radar mainly dry kent county sex he sussex county slow conditions out there with the wet roads. to 95, cottman northbound do have the right lane taken out

and then southbound the left lane taken out still traffic get buying with no problems. this early in the game, with low volume. here we go, the vine street expressway again this morning the westbound side, from broad to the schuylkill. closing down the two far left lanes here so only the right lane get being by around 18th street. see the cones still up. this is supposed to wrap up 5:00 this morning again, they will do it again tonight starting at 10:00 taking out one lane, midnight down to two lanes close that will wrap up 5:00 a.m. saturday morning again, westbound on the vine from broad to the schuylkill. area speeds are looking good. ninety-five, 55 miles per hour, no problems on the blue route. turnpike, north east extension, in new jersey, we go, running at the speed limit for the jersey turnpike and 295. here would go, route 23, valley forge road remains closed for awhile, until late 2015 due to bridge repair, the major work here. this is route 29 or valley park road. will be the alternate to get around that repair, then plymouth road closed between 476 and bullet letter pike, that's the sinkhole repair that should wrap up all the

way until august 316789 back to you. >> thank you. well, the deal is done. but it is not the one mossing else fans were hoping for. >> the eagles used their 20th rounds pick to draft usc wide receiver nelson. >> for more, on the draft let's bring in eyewitness sports reporter james palmer, in the house, all right james, it is done. no mariota but a good player. >> chip kelly called him too good to pass up. he got the guy he was looking for, in fact, he tried to get him to come to oregon when kelly was head coach there didn't give him the first time around got him the second time around, 6-foot one, 190-pound will replace jeremy maclin, won't kansas city in free agency. of course plenty every rumors that chip would try to trade up for heisman trophy winner marcus mariota. he talked last night and said the price to move up was just too steep. >> part of the plan we will build this team and we still

think there is a lot of value in this draft and future drafts, so we'll try to hole onto our picks if we can. >> coming up at 5:00 we'll hear more from chip kelly on how close the team actually got to making a play, for mariota. he'll meet with the media this afternoon, first day of practice, is already monday when the eagles hit the fields. phase two of this off season work out, seems like this season just year around, and he is jumping well in. >> welcome toll nfl and the big show, yuck man. >> extra early, thank you. >> see you in a little bit. some fans were dis a pointed that the eagles did not get mariota others excited about the draft pick, and looking forward to promising season. >> it was a good pick, we kneeled add wide receiver. also hoping, but hey this guy looks good on film so we're hyped. >> i love it. he reminds me after young sean jackson. i mean, he is fast, he is quick, that's going to be our man. we come to see we're going to superbowl this year babe.

a part of what standardized tests don't measure, very frankly they don't measure the diligence, the potential passion of a student. so it's really a measure of how adept you are to working

out a problem quickly. but what if you're brilliant and it might take you twenty minutes, but you can figure out something if you were just given time to do it and show real brilliance. is that a real measure of ability and intelligence? what you can do in one minute on a problem? get out of here. >> kathmandu, businesses have reopened most are back

indoor, for fear of after >> the outlook remains bleak for south jersey homeowners forced to evacuate their homes as their backyard falls into the delaware river. >> errosion wiped away a portion of the odel family and their nab or's backyard in florence township. worlds toward leave last week, but they say they're still trying to figure out for who is responsible for fixing the problem. our cleve bryan spoke with them today. >> what's it like coming back today? >> it wasn't easy, not easy, this is not an easy thing to do. i want to be home. >> we're getting in touch with consulting firms to try and get an independent consulting group out here to assess what's going on. >> due to safety concerns, the odel's are only allowed to retrieve belongings, but not spend the night at their homes. >> 4:43, and if this is the worse we're seeing -- it is not that bad katie. >> i was having the exact same conversation with our weather producer, this is not bad. steady rain across southern delaware right now but that's really the one and only spot

where this storm has had a chance to have any kind of real impact with precipitation anyway. we'll sea ice it lad dollars share, isolated shower today. first day of may. >> that's right. may day yes. >> but, you know, even though starting off little on the cool side, i got great news coming up here. >> bring it. >> warm it up significantly in the days ahead we can eventually expect to see summer like warmth out there too, for couple of days. so we'll get you right on out there start things off with one of the field cameras where it is, kind of pouring right now and that is down the shore or at least i should say at the beaches in delaware rehoboth, at the boardwalk plaza clearly it has been raining here, see puddles if you look real closely, it is currently raining right now. see what it actually looks like on storm scan3 at the wider zoom with the storm in its entirety, definitely bit more organization now that the two pieces of the puzzle came together. it will just again bypass us. so right now the northern most

fringe of it is over kent and sussex county, further north you go, actually somewhat of a clearing sky right now. so granted we are still going to keep an on shore flow out there. what that will do is enter in or bring in more cloud cover for us, and again maybe isolated shower along the way but we will probably see few breaks along the way too allowing us to get back up to 63. so yes cooler than average but not terrible. with that northeast breeze, you will probably want to have extra layer ready to go. variably cloudy tonight seasonable as well, drop down to 48ment looking forward in the forecast being temperatures just go off to the races at this point even already by tomorrow back up to 70, will be stray shower, especially from philly on west, and then we look to sunday beautiful p seven and sunshine, enjoy that, monday, 8 degrees with sun another stellar day. tuesday, for the most part, not looking bad at all. but we are likely i think to see couple of showers roll in with new front later in the

day. ukee, back to you. >> katie, thank you. still ahead on "eyewitness news" this morning, electric car maker tezsla is diving into the home battery marketment we'll tell you about the challenges the auto maker faces. >> first know, here's what's ahead on cbs-3.
