>> you buy these or i take your car. it's unregistered. support your police department. >> reporter: i spoke with the man who says he shot the video. he says he never thought it would have more than 180,000 views. >> you already paid. you got these tickets. support your police department. >> okay. >> poor cops like me instead of taking [ bleep ]. >> reporter: the officer is with the 24th district. the man who took the video says this was during a traffic stop. he says he paid the $30. the officer also appears to be making homophobic slurs in the video as well. >> what's up with the [ bleep ]? >> breast cancer, man. my grandmom went through it. >> breast cancer, i can understand. can't you support breast cancer another way? you look like a fruitcake. >> reporter: i reached out to the head of the fraternal order of police. he tells me he saw the video but doesn't have any comment. we have not been able to get in contact with the officer. the tickets in question were for the hero thrill show. the commissioner says that goes

to support the families of fallen police officers and firefighters and says this has tainted that event. deanna durante, nbc 10 news. not a bad day for baseball. the humidity is much lower today. did you notice? i'm sure you did. making it a perfect day for batting practice in bala cynwyd. we have a live look at cape may. a perfect way to kick off the weekend at the beach. but it didn't start that way. the day actually got off to a soggy start at the beach. overnight rain flooded streets here in north wildwood. nbc 10 first alert chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz joins us with his first alert forecast. >> yeah, quite a change in just a matter of hours. take a look at the poconos. this isnch man'ey not a cloud in the sky, nice and comfortable. we have broken the heat wave officially. we have had three, four, five, six days in a row, 90 plus and

today, just shy with 88 degrees. right now, it's 86. same story in northeast philly and other areas mostly in the lower 80s. that band of rain that slammed the shore today has moved offshore but it's not far offshore. so we have to monitor that all weekend to see if any of that moisture starts coming back. but for this evening there's no doubt drier air has come in and will stay with us throughout the night. we will see temperatures drop into the 70s in the city and 60s in some suburbs, even by 10:00 it will be nice and comfortable when you get up in the morning. we will see how long the great weather lasts and have the latest on major hurricane danny, category 3 coming up in a few minutes. stocks dropped sharply for a second straight day. the dow plunged more than 530 points in a sell-off sparked by fears about china's global

economy. today marks the fourth straight day of declines from the dow, nasdaq and s & p. a closer look at the source of the slump and what investors should expect next coming up on "nbc nightly news" with lester holt at 6:30. 35 days and counting. that's when pope francis will arrive here. a live look at the ben franklin parkway which will play host to the papal mass on september 27th. amtrak is adding extra trains to meet the anticipated demand for the papal visit. meanwhile, septa is now selling papal visit regional rail passes at select stations. an online lottery left about 20,000 passes unsold. those unclaimed train tickets and reports of still available hotel rooms are raising a lot of questions, questions about whether some people are being scared off by the expected crowds. we sent nbc 10's jesse gary to get answers. what were you able to find out? >> reporter: the answer for many

center city hotels is bending perception and fighting fears that the so-called security zone will also shut people out of hotel rooms. hotel ownership tries to fight that imjaage and septa is movin forward to shuttle the faithful in and out of center city without relying on an act of god. >> i love the guy, i love what he's done for our faith and i want to be in and among the crowd. >> reporter: mary was one of dozens of people in line to buy the pope pass, an online lottery failed to clear stock so the authority started selling the one-day $10 tickets at its stations. executives describe sales as steady. we found passengers with questions. >> at different times you get different information. this is just a learning process. >> what we have done is come up with a unique solution that works for capacity. >> reporter: we took questions to the deputy g.m. who says

regional rail, the high speed line and both subway lines will take passengers from outlying stations into the traffic box or security zones. >> one stop to get you on the train and then we take you right in the city. our trains then race through the other side of the system, pick up people on that end and come back in and race in the other direction. so it's really like an express service. >> reporter: service is exactly the word on the lips of many hospitality providers. some say the security box and resulting frenzy have made would-be guests gun shy. loew's hotel has over 100 rooms available for the pope's visit but that number is dwindling as people get a dose of reality. >> if people just take a step back and think about it and log on and check availability at the properties in the city they will be able to find accommodations and certainly something that would be much nicer than popping a tent in fairmount park. >> reporter: one of the concerns for hotels, how to get workers

in and out each day during the pope's visit and what about their new clients, new guests that are coming into town on sunday for conventions that begin on monday? the city will still be in the security box with everything locked down. all those concerns are being discussed with city leaders. we will keep you apprised as to the next plans. jesse gary, nbc 10 news. >> the nbc 10 news app is your go-to tool for the papal visit. we have a complete guide to transportation, road closures and places you can go to try to see the pope in person. the nbc 10 news app is a free download. twin brothers were found shot to death in a car in camden and tonight, the search is on for their killer. the bodies of 26-year-old maurice and markice harper were discovered. a person driving by called 911 around 7:30 this morning. investigators believe the brothers were shot several hours earlier.

how nasty canby park can get. >> it's pitch dark back there. people hang out and drink and do drugs and stuff in the park. >> it was not just bad. it's getting worse. >> reporter: tim says the lack of good lighting and the party crowds that hang out here drinking is not even the worst of it. he says the city lets youth football leagues use this field and the crowds and cars have gotten out of hands, saying football parents disregard the signage behind neighbor's homes. >> they totally ignore the residents and are on top of everybody. >> reporter: how do you get in and out on a busy football day? >> you say your prayers. >> reporter: police were here in late july when a woman was found dead on a play ground slide, a murder victim. neighbors say police don't seem to come through on any regular basis. they wish they would. they also wish the city would take a look at its posted list of park rules and enforce them. you're not asking for new rules. you are saying enforce the ones you already have. >> the rules are posted in the park. >> reporter: those rules are right here in front of us on

and $31,000 in euros hidden in a book. we finally broke the fourth heat wave of the season and the humidity yhas gone down as well. it is getting more and more comfortable. it will be a real nice day tomorrow. a pretty nice weekend over all with the one area we are really watching, that's starting offshore with the rain that happened this morning. danny is now a major hurricane, category 3 but it's a very tiny one. sunshine out there right now, 86 degrees, feels like 86 but the humidity is down and the temperatures after six straight days of 90 plus, we finally got to 88 degrees today. the hottest in the heat wave was 94 so it's not an extreme heat wave but it is the fourth one we have seen. right now, 86 in philadelphia, 80s across most of the rest of

the tarea with a nice northwest wind bringing in the drier air. there's the band of showers, some of them heavy moving through last night and this morning, caused some flooding in parts of cape may county. now it's gone. we watch that area offshore as we go through the weekend. here's the future cast. the clouds not that far away, right? the wind is out of the north or northeast. we're not really getting a west wind to push it even farther. there's a storm out there that's going to be developing and potentially pushing some of that cloud cover back toward the coast. so areas like especially in ocean county, for example, could see some clouds and maybe even some showers as we go through the weekend. at the shore, it looks great on saturday. some of the clouds could come into parts of the area on sunday. just a slight chance of a shower then. in the poconos, beautiful weather saturday. pretty nice on sunday as well.

just a few more clouds. and nice and comfortable, nice comfortable for the eagles tomorrow night. 79 degrees at kickoff, 76, clear skies in the fourth quarter. here's danny, way, way out there in the middle of the ocean and tiny. about as small as a hurricane can get. 115 mile an hour winds but it is expected to weaken as it moves into unfavorable conditions, not just to a category 1 but down to a tropical storm by the time it gets near the dominican republic. for tonight, we will be seeing clear skies, more comfortable. 68 for the low in philadelphia, 57 north and west. tomorrow, sunny and warm, low humidity, a beautiful day. highs in the low to mid 80s. we are getting lucky on the weekends. sunday, few more clouds especially toward the shore. monday is the hottest day of the seven day, back to 90 degrees and then it gets a whole lot more comfortable starting wednesday.
