meant to go in regulation for the game-winning t.d. it was the steelers' first loss of the season. it was also the first win in pittsburgh for flacco and head coach john harbaugh. and pro bowler and future hall of famer ray lewis stalled a possible pittsburgh comeback by intercepting a pass from steelers q.b. charlie batch, the ravens' first takeway of the season. lots of firsts, and the end result was great for us. final score, our baltimore ravens 17, mindy's husband's steelers 14. next up, it's the denver broncos this sunday at m&t bank stadium. i just had to get that little dig in there. >> i know. i think he's over it now. 50 degrees at 5:08. could the orioles make it five in a row, ending the season on a winning note? keith mills haments the answer later. >> but first, a nursing home becomes a crime scene after police find a man beaten to death. >> and here's a live look at traffic. this is the beltway at liberty road. looks ok right there. it is wet out there, so be careful.

>> welcome back. 1 minutes after 5:00. a rainy, cool monday morning. 52 degrees downtown. upper fourts in some of the northwest suburbs. take a jacket and umbrella and give yourself extra time. light to moderate rain across the peltway, up and down i-the 5, down 83 and down 70, so you're going run into the rain at one point or another during the day today. the forecast, showers likely, cloudy and cool otherwise with

high temperatures only in the upper 50's. when we come back, we'll check the seven-day forecast, see what's on tap the rest of the week. >> covering the nation this morning -- an 81-year-old man is under arrest accused of killing his 94-year-old roommate at a southern california nursing home. investigators arrested william mcdougal after finding the body of his roommate in laguna hills friday night. they say mcdougal reportedly took a metal bar from his closet and repeatedly hit the other man. they're looking for a motive and say mcdougal doesn't have a criminal record. he's being held without bail at the santa ana prison. >> three people were injured when a car crashed into a south florida building. authorities say the vehicle slammed into a broward county beauty supply store saturday afternoon. the driver of the car was not hurt, but three people inside the store were hurt. they were taken to a hospital suffering from minor injuries. they're all expected to be ok. police are investigating the cause of the crash and whether any charges should be filed. the time now, 5:12, 50 degrees

here on tv hill. if you're a verizon wireless customer, you could soon be getting a refund. >> a warning if you're planning to travel abroad, why u.s. officials say vacationers heading to europe should be on alert. >> and traffic backed up on the southbound harrisburg expressway, an overturned tractor-trailer.

two governors, two different approaches. even in good times bob ehrlich didn't make education a priority. he increased college tuition by 40%, cut school construction by $200 million, and ehrlich voted to eliminate the department of education while serving in congress.

but in the toughest of times, martin o'malley has made record investments in public schools, new school construction, and o'malley froze college tuition four years in a row. with martin o'malley, our children always come first. >> more rain like we didn't -- like we needed that, right? >> i know. it's not pretty, unfortunately am we are dealing with one accident that's pretty serious. it was an overnight tractor-trailer -- overturned,

shed say, southbound on the harrisburg expressway as you approach the beltway. we're hearing two left lanes are still closed there. it's backing up traffic just prior to the beltway. but as volume picks up in that area, definitely going to slow things up even more than that. york road, a much better bet if you want to take an alternate this morning. in the meantime, columbia road at april junior any columbia, we have an accident there being worked on. and wind warnings as you travel across the way bridge. just be careful there. take it extra slow this morning. here's the harrisburg expressway just north of the beltway. you can see the flashing lights. they're still working to clear the two left lanes of this overturned tractor-trailer. and you can see how slow the pace of things is heading down toward the beltway. we'll switch over to a live view of traffic on the harrisburg expressway. and so far, the delays have not crept back to warren road, but looks like we're getting close, just seeing delays there. we'll let you know once that happens. that's the latest on traffic pulse 11. now the latest on the buses and trains. for that, we go to kurt kroncke of the m.t.a. >> sarah, thank you. we will see the buses slow up a

little bit this morning due to the rain out there. right now, just the 5 bus with a 20-minute delay. a couple of diversions, 35 bus diverting at wilkins and brunswick due to the water main broke. 30 buses diverting at pratt road. marc trains looking very good. no delays on the penn, camden and brunswick lines on marc. with the m.t.a. transit team, i'm kurt kroncke. now back to tony pann. good morning, tony. >> thank you, sir. good morning, everyone. yes, obviously rainy start for us, so give yourself extra time. this isn't heavy rain. that's one good thing, but it is enough to slow down the commute. light to moderate rain around the beltway, up and down 95, down 83. we get a break on the eastern shore counties, but if you're watching and it's not raining at your house, eventually the rain is going to catch up with you at one point or another, so take an umbrella and jacket this morning, because temperatures are in the low 50's. let's switch it over and take a wider view at this storm system. this is an area of low pressure coming up the coast. it's not as intense as the one that went through a couple of days ago, but still enough to grab some moisture off the

atlantic and toss it back in our direction. and with a northeast wind and the cloud cover sticking around, it's really going to be tough to get the temperatures to move much today. we'll be lucky if we get into the upper 50's this afternoon. right now, upper 40's and low 50's, so man just adding five or six degrees as we head into this afternoon. upper 40's in the northern suburbs right now. it's 49 in taneytown. same thing in parkton. a little bit warmer near the water, but not much. it's 53 in annapolis and 52 degrees in rock hall. again, maybe topping out in the upper 50's this afternoon. so here's the weather setup. we have an area of low pressure coming up the coast. this one is intensifying, but at least moving north and away from us. the problem is, the next couple of days, we have an area of low pressure in the upper levels of the atmosphere that's stalled over west virginia. this is going to just kind of walk its way toward the coast. so we're going to have to keep a chance for rain and cool temperatures in the forecast, i think, all the way through the middle of the week. we'll probably stay in the 50's all the way through wednesday. so don't look for a big warm-up until we get towards the

weekend. so showers likely today, at least off and on. otherwise, it will be cloudy and cool and northeast wind at 10 to 15. high temperatures between 55 and 670. sun rises this morning at 7:05, but probably won't see the sunrise. showers likely overnight tonight as well, but they should be tapering off late as the storm pulls away. otherwise, mostly cloudy with temperatures dropping back into the upper 40's. sun sets this evening at 6:44. seven-day forecast with that storm drifting around, the next couple of days, we're going to keep at least a 30% chance for showers in the forecast on tuesday and wednesday and keep the high temperatures only in the 50's. again, the average high is 72. we'll start to break out of this pattern at the end of the week. by the time we get into the weekend, it looks very nice. we'll get some sunshine back and temperatures will jump into the upper 70's. >> in this morning's consumer alert, if you're headed to europe or know someone who lives there, beware. the u.s. state department has

issued a terror warning after obtaining evidence showing osama bin laden, al qaeda, and affiliates are planning attacks which will most likely be targeted at transportation or popular tourist sites. many travelers say they are heeding the warning, but won't let it interfere with their plans. >> they dent mention airports in particular. they mentioned more areas, maybe tourist attractions and stuff like that. so we weren't worried the slightest. >> european officials say they are working to track down suspects with the help of the c.i.a. nearly one in every four homes sold in the second quarter was a deeply discounted foreclosed house. at that pace, the market should be able to work through distressed properties in about three years. the real estate tracking group says it will take that long to resell homes lost by owners and get the markets back in line with numbers prior to the recession. meantime, congressman cummings is calling for a moratorium on for closures here in maryland. this comes amid recent reports of fraud among lenders. he says lenders' actions may have led to evictions that

could have been prevented and could be affecting your home value. he is not a letter to governor martin o'malley and the state attorney general on saturday asking for a 60-day moratorium. >> nfl teams are looking at vending machines to push merchandise and a victory for verizon customers. jane king joins us live this morning with the day's business news in the bloomberg business report. happy monday to you, jane. >> hi. happy monday to you too, san antonio. if you're a verizon wireless customer, you could have a refund coming your way. verizon will give refunds up to $6 to 50 million customers to make up for incorrect billing. the company under investigation by the f.c.c. for charging 15 million customers so-called miss are you fees for data use on their cell phones, and that totaled more than $50 million. meanwhile, bank of america, the latest lender delaying foreclosures, as you've been reporting, so we're watching that stock today. federal regulators called for review of the nation's seven biggest lenders to review foreclosh you'res for defective documents, so this story

definitely continues to develop. wells fargo, in fact, could be under the microscope next, so we're going to be watching that stock, too. the associated press reporting an executive there has admitted the same problem of relying on co-workers to insure information on foreclosh you're documents was correct. still, wells fargo spokesperson tells the a.p. the bank is confident its foreclosh you're documents are accurate. as for markets, stocks right now this morning are looking lower for the start of things here today. we did have a higher day friday. we got good reports on personal income and spending. if you're still high off the baltimore ravens win against pittsburgh yesterday, listen up. a company called main gate has started installing vending machines that sell nfl merchandise. this is according to "usa today." although main gate's six nfl clients do not include the ravens, the nfl says if this proves successful, it will make sure the other 31 clubs know all about it. hopefully ravens fans, too. that is business. live at the new york stock exchange, it i'm jane king, bloomberg news, reporting for wbal-tv 11 news. back to you. >> jane, we're going to milk

this ravens one over the steelers for a long time. >> you should. >> thank you. see you back here at 6:15 for your next report. >> the time is now 5:22, 50 degrees. coming up, we'll get another look at your morning commute with traffic and weather together. >> also, thousands laced up their running and walking shoes for a freight cause this weekend. we'll take you to this year's race for the cure. >> and don't forget to email your answer to the water cooler question of the day. from don't ask to don't tell to immigration reform to funeral protests, which case would you like the supreme court to resolve this term? email your response to watercooler@wbaltv.com. i thought it was crazy feeding in the fall.

i always feed in the fall. but, it's the best time. feed your lawn in the fall. the fall feeding makes all the difference in the world. what the fall feeding does is build the roots.. that's when the roots sorta want nutrition. i give my lawn scotts winterguard. it's like a root building machine. it builds your lawn from the roots up. next year you get this! the stronger the roots, the stronger the lawn. all year long. the best time to feed is when it will do the most good. there's no substitute for the fall feeding, trust me. it is the best thing you can do for your lawn. i use scotts winterguard.

let's take a look at h.d. doppler radar. this is not heavy rain, but enough to slow the drive time for sure. light to moderate stuff across most of the viewing area, except over on the eastern shore counties. and we do have some light rain around the beltway right now as well. so again, give yourself as much extra time as you can on this monday morning. let's take a look at the forecast, off and on rain showers this. won't be a steady rain, but off and on. all the way through this evening. and with the northeast wind, we got to keep the temperatures in the 50's. expect a high of only 58 degrees. when we come back, we'll check the seven-day forecast, see what's on tap through the rest of the week. for now, to the news desk. >> a new study reveals african-american boys may be at particular risk for food allergies. the national institutes of health survey included data on antibody levels in the body that would flank allergy toss peanut, eggs, milk, and shrimp. the odds of african-american male children having food allergies was more than four times higher than the general population.

it's still unclear why, but researchers think allergies may be underrecognized in african-american males. >> a survey of parents in southwest ohio finds one in eight allow their child to go without medical care sometimes because they can't afford it. those parents say their children had not received medications, lab tests, or appointments with specialists in the past year because researchers found them to be underinsured. those with private insurance were more likely to be underinsured than those with public health coverage. the time is now 5:42, 50 degrees on tv hill. an impressive display of sportsmanship at one middle school football game. that story is straight ahead. >> and right now, here's a live look over the downtown area courtesy of our skycam. up next, we'll update weather and traffic. to help avoid dental problems i give patients act restoring mouthwash. act kills germs, restores minerals strengthens enamel. act restoring-- for strong teeth act now.

my dad is the supervisor of a train station and my mom's a teacher. my dad's an auto technician. my mom's a receptionist. i'm not sure i would have been able to afford college without the tuition freeze. while tuition in other states is rising out of reach... governor o'malley made the tough choice to freeze tuition. he made my dream of going to college into a reality. i'm the first in my family to go to college. my brother and i never would have been able to afford college. even though times were tough... governor o'malley kept his promise. there's never a doubt... there's never a doubt whose side he's on. martin o'malley... moving maryland forward.

>> good morning. sarah caldwell checking on your

morning commute. right now, we're dealing with an accident southbound on the harrisburg expressway. it's just prior to the beltway. you can see the delays starting to form as you make your approach to the beltway. it's an overturned tractor-trailer. it happened last night, but they're still working to upright it and clear it from those two left lanes. right now the right lane squeezing by only, and there are some heavy delays leading up to that. we'll take a live view of that in the moment. in the meantime, consider york road as your alternate, much better bet this morning. let's see what else is going on. we have an accident in columbia, columbia road at april journey. headsing out on northbound 9 at 175, a medical call there to watch for. and another problem northbound 95 at 216, an accident just coming in to us. we understand warnings in effect at the bay bridge this morning, just be careful as you travel across any of the area bridges. it's a slick start this morning, so definitely give yourself extra time if you can. here's a quick live look at the accident scene. you can see the flashing lights, lots of activity there, southbound 83 approaching the beltway. again, two left lanes are closed. york road is your alternate

this morning, and running a lot smoother than this is at least. we'll swetch over to a leave view at warren road, where delays are starting to creep back to this area. so from warren road down to the beltway, that's where you're going to be sitting in traffic. rest of the marriage roadways, thankfully, in pretty good shape, despite the fact that they are wet out there. but 795 looks good, no problems on i-70 coming in toward the beltway. that's the latest on traffic pulse 11. now we go to kurt kroncke for a look at the buses and trains. >> looking pretty good on the rails right now. despite a delay on the brunswick line, 890 running 10 minutes late. both light rail metro subway on schedule. we have the five bus with a 20-meant delay. 35 bus diverting at wilkins and brunswick. and the 30 bus is diverting at pratt and light. there's a new and exciting way to pay your local bus, light rail, or metro. it's called the charm card. it's rechargeable card you add money to. for information is available at mtachargecard.com. now back to tony pann. >> thank you, sir.

good morning, everyone. we have a little bit of rain to contend with again this morning. this is not going to be a tremendous rain event like the last storm, but still enough to slow down the drive time, so give yourself extra time. light rain around the beltway at the present time. a little break on the eastern shore counties. light to moderate rain out in the western suburbs as well. this is going to continue to come through in waves this. won't be a steady rain, but they'll come in from the east and work their way back west. eventually some of this will likely catch up to you. let's take a look at the radar. we can see a storm system spreading rain, wrapping it around the top side of the storm off the atlantic, into pennsylvania, new jersey, new york state. it's a slow mover, but it's not as powerful as the storm that came through the other day. and with the winds coming out of the northeast and the cloudy skies around here and the rain showers, it's going to be difficult to move the temperatures. right now we're in the upper 40's and low 50's. i doubt if we'll make it out of the 50's this afternoon. the average high temperature is 72, just to give you some perspective. but right now, it's 49 in

parkton. same thing in jarrettsville. 54, one of the warmer spots in annapolis. and 50 degrees at b.w.i. so take your jacket with you and the umbrella. here's the weather setup. we've got this area of low pressure at the surface riding up the coast. that's producing the rain during the day today. the problem for the next couple of days is there's an area of low pressure that's centered over the ohio valley in the upper levels of the atmosphere, and that's cut off from the flow. so it's basically going to stall right over the midatlantic region, so we're going to keep the chance for showers in the forecast tomorrow and probably wednesday as well with temperatures in the 50's. and then eventually high pressure will kick it all off shore, and we'll find up with a decent close to the workweek. so with the forecast for today, off and on rain showers, nothing heavy, cloudy and cool otherwise with a northeast wind at 10 to 15. the high temperatures only between 50 and 55. sunrise coming up at 7:05. overnight tonight, rain showers likely, mostly cloudy otherwise, with temperatures dropping back into the upper 40's. and the seven-day forecast, not a whole lot is going to change

tuesday and wednesday, although i don't think it will be as steady of a precip event. we're going to drop the chance down to 30% on tuesday and wednesday, but the temperatures are going to stay the same, upper 50's both days. and then we finally break out of this pattern on thursdayful we'll make it back into the upper skts, perhaps the upper 70's by the time we hit next weekend with the sunshine. and that's something to look forward to. send it over to the news desk. >> tony, thank you. a high school football game in one minnesota town was the site of a very impressive display of sportsmanship. >> zach snyder has the story of one very special touchdown. >> sam colvin has been a member of the indians football team since the eighth grade. he also suffers from autism. so when the coach asked superior to let colvin catch a pass in a game that was no longer in doubt, the answer from the spartans sideline was a resounding yes. >> there was no indecision whatsoever. the guys in the huddle with me, they chimed right in and says let's just do it, coach. >> colvin caught the ball near

the 34-yard line, still a long way from the superior end zone, but then he sprinted 66 yards down the field all the way to pay dirt, scoring the first and likely the only touchdown of his high school career, a touchdown that was worth much, much more than the six points they put on the scoreboard. >> it's amazing. >> it had to have been the highlight of anybody's life seeing that happen. i mean, you could feel the aura just change as soon as that happened. it was their homecoming, and the kid deserved it. >> it was a selfless act of sportsmanship with both teams moving past the x's and o's, the wins and losses of football, to achieve something that was greater than the game. >> at the time, it was just the right thick to do, and even more so afterwards, we realize the impact that it had on sam and his team and his community. >> that's great. what nice kids. >> that's what sports should be about. >> yes. 5:50, 50 degrees on tv hill. there's still more on 11 news today. >> clg a look at one of your answers to our water cooler

question of the day. >> here's a look at last knit's winning maryland lottery numbers. four years ago, bob ehrlich got fired as governor of maryland.

for good reason. first, he protected tax loopholes for giant cable cable companies. then, he let utilities jack up our rates 72%. and for the last four years, he worked as a hired gun for big corporations, even a bank that took billions from a taxpayer funded bailout. ehrlich sides with corporate executives again and again and again tell bob ehrlich big banks and billionares don't need help. middle class marylanders do. two governors, two different approaches. even in good times bob ehrlich didn't make education a priority. he increased college tuition by 40%,

cut school construction by $200 million, and ehrlich voted to eliminate the department of education while serving in congress. but in the toughest of times, martin o'malley has made record investments in public schools, new school construction, and o'malley froze college tuition four years in a row. with martin o'malley, our children always come first. >> we're still taking your answers to our water cooler question of the day. >> this morning, we asked, with the supreme court's new term beginning today, which case would you like the court to

resolve this term? >> email your response to watercooler@wbaltv.com. >> now 11 sports with keith mills. >> good morning to you, everybody. to paraphrase legendary sportscaster jim mckay, it was the agony of defeat to the thrill of victory. it stopped on two plays from the steelers 3-yard line, just a few minutes earlier, joe flacco led the ravens on a game-winning touchdown drive with 30 seconds left. the ravens absolutely stunned the steelers, 17-14. down 7-0, second quarter, willis mcgahee, and watch this move. bam, gets a good block from matt birk. it's 7-7. now late fourth quarter, down 14-10. joe flacco, anquan boldin, william gay breaks it up. there's the agony of defeat. i'm all choked up here.

flacco to houshmandzadeh. that's the thrill of victory. ravens win 17-14. excuse me. >> you are choked up, aren't you? my goodness. >> ray lewis with the interception. and then we'll get to the ravens win, 17-14. joe flacco talked about the win. >> we played good games here. we just haven't won any. so to finally win one, it's been another tight game, like they all have been. it feels really good. you know, we're making that next step, and, you know, 3-1 sounds a lot better than 2-2, so i think we all feel pretty good about it. >> i tell you what, a two-game swing, really. the ravens 3-1. the steelers are 3-1. had the ravepbs lost, they would have been two back. denver in town on sunday. the orioles' season is over, it ended yesterday at camden yards. the birds didn't win, but did end the season winning three of

four games from the tigers this weekend. and 17 of their last 27. nick markakis off phil coke. brennan boesch plays it before jay bell scores. 1-0 orioles. in the fifth, it was 2-1 brandon inge off brad ferguson, and ferguson has really pitched well down the stretch. couldn't protect the lead yesterday. orioles lose 4-2, finished 32-23 under buck showalter. but the big story around town, john harbaugh called the winning drive the defining moment in joe flacco's young career. hard to argue with that. >> incredible poise. >> choking me up. >> i know, my goodness. >> yeah, something to get excited about. keith, thank you. >> here's a look ahead to our next hour of 11 news today. a all an advisory committee urges investigators to reopen the jonbenet ramsey case. >> people are close to rescues

the trapped miners in chile. >> and see how many it took to set the water slide record at 6:40. >> speaking of water, we have plenty of that in the forecast. we'll check the seven-day and h.d. doppler radar when i come back. >> unfortunately, still looking at some problems on the harrisburg expressway, southbound jammed conditions due to an controversy turned tractor-trailer. an update on that coming up.

>> two suspects are on the loose and another is hospitalized. i'm kim dacey. i'm kim dacey. i've go on that story in a l
