time. a house sitter escaped unharmed. >> also in chester county heavy winds knocked over trees and powerlines. this was the scene in devon. lauren casey has a closer look at where the storms hit hardest. >> we had numerous storm reports. you can see all of these symbols indicating that tree kind of falling over the house, that is indicative of wind damage, whether that be downed powerlines, downed trees or structural damage. you can see how many we had when those severe storms came rolling through this afternoon or evening, we saw a few homes hit by lightning unfortunately in chester county as well as ocean county but things now have quieted down tremendously. we're still dealing with residual rain, light to moderate in intensity. right now a soaking at the store, that rain stretched out from cape may up into ocean county and a soaking night across the state of delaware. now the rain starting to break up a bit especially over the

strange? definitely, according to detective fontana. he says other surveillance video puts this specific car at the crime scene but he's not calling the driver a suspect, just a person of interest that should do the right thing and speak up immediately. >> thank god there were four witnesses that did stop so we were able to speak to some people and gather some information, but the vehicles involved didn't stop. they kept going. >> reporter: they kept going, that's unfortunate in this case. if you have any information give burlington township police a call. you can remain anonymous. david spunt, cbs3 eyewitness news. >> an off duty police officer was killed in a car accident in him i will ton late this afternoon. the accident around 4:00. mercer county officials say another car was involved in the accident but no one else was

averages. they make a thousand calls, 10 will hit. >> the best way to deal with the calls is to simply ignore numbers you don't recognize and block them if your phone has that feature. but what about the national do not call registry maintained by the ftc. >> do you think that actually works? >> no. because they always call you back. >> i don't think it works at all. >> reporter: experts say it does but only for companies based in the u.s. if you're getting a call for that free cruise or low interested mortgage and it was routed from a call center overseas, the ftc can do little about it. >> i'm sure they can do something. >> the best advice is registering your cell phone on the national list and manually blocking calls that come true through. if they don't leave a message, don't call back. experts say that verifies your number and for robo-calls generated within the united states, the city responsible, los angeles.

>> it's going to be so lovely. today not lovely. not at all. severe storms rolling through the area. check out this time lapse from our roof cam here from the cbs3 studios. we had sunshine for a good chunk of the day but the storms came rolling in. strong intense gusty winds you can see reducing visibility greatly so in our scene here the rain pouring down, flashes of lightning and dropped our temperatures from the 70s to the 80s just like that. no more ominous weather is in our future. sitting at 73 degrees we've actually warmed up a couple of degrees after that rain moved through. winds out of the south right now at 8 miles per hour but we did have all of those storm reports and today is just a handful. probable tornado damage in delaware we had to tornado warning earlier in the day, we

the rumors became official. the sixers get the first overall pick in this year's draft. in return boston gets this year's third overall pick, the celtics will receive next year's lakers pick and falls between 2 and 5.

if the pick does not convey, then the sixers will send boston the 2019 pick for the kings assuming it's not first overall and then the sixers would send their own pick to satisfy the trade. got all that? here's don bell with more. >> trust the process. >> reporter: the process got a shot in the arm. this afternoon the sixers traded the third pick in thursday's draft to boston along with a future first round selection. in return the sixers will have the number one pick for the second straight year. >> the odds are in your favor at number one more so than any other position in the draft that the player chosen may end up being a franchise level player. >> reporter: the sixers are expected to take the top prospect in the draft. >> i love it. i've been preoccupied by it. my family is tired of me talking about him all weekend long. this is massive.
