the fbi director now says they are not looking for any other suspects in connection with the shooting and in is no indication edward archer was part of an organized terror cell. right now at 5:00, nbc 10's lauren mayk joins us live at police headquarters. lauren, what's the latest on the investigation? >> reporter: the fbi director today said they are still looking to understand motives, still investigating edward archer's travel, and they are investigating this as a terrorist attack. however, i heard from other federal and local officials today and not everyone is putting a label on it. the attack left a police officer with three bullet wounds as he fired back. >> i just think his actions that night were nothing short of heroic. >> reporter: senator pat toomey didn't mince words. >> make no mistake about it, this was a terrorist attack. >> reporter: as for the suspect -- >> what we know is he has declared his allegiance to isis,

said the attack was in the name of islam, that he had been radicalized. >> reporter: but he said he doesn't know how the radicalization happened. another senator also briefed by the fbi hesitated to offer a label for what happened. >> i'm going to leave it to the security professionals to make definitive determinations about what happened, why it happened. i think that's still pretty early. >> reporter: amid the questions of what to call it, philadelphia police commissioner richard ross imploring not to forget who it left bleeding on a philadelphia street. >> every day he's getting a little better, but he has a lot of recovery ahead of him. >> reporter: the commissioner was asked about concerns the officer could lose his arm. >> i don't think that's the case, but he did sustain some significant damage. >> reporter: and whatever you call it, he warns the run-in with the man in this video could leave more than just physical damage. >> we're worried about his healing as a whole. >> reporter: the commissioner here really stressing the

psychological impact for officer hartnett. physically the officer is awaiting more surgery. he also did get visits today from senator toomey and from the fbi director. live in center city, i'm lauren mayk, nbc 10 news. and tonight, local leaders are holding what they call an emergency community meeting to discuss last week's ambush and the ongoing terror investigation. leaders want to focus on neighborhood safety and mental health issues. also tonight, a new chapter in the powerball excitement. last night we were all hoping to win that historic jackpot and now we're all wondering who bought those three winning tickets. we know they were sold in munford, tennessee, melbourne beach, florida, and chino hills, california. also stores in our area sold tickets worth $1 and $2 million. deanna durante will have more on that coming up, but we begin in chino hills, california, where

someone is splitting the jackpot three ways. you're watching nbc's jennifer bjorklund live. still waiting for the mysterious millionaire to come forward. >> right, and that person has quite a while to do it. we're not expecting that person or persons or whoever is holding that very valuable tiny little slip of paper to come forward, but, you know, we're all still just sort of hoping to get a glimpse of the lucky, lucky person. maybe some of that will rub off on us. the owner of this 7-eleven got his novelty check, that big fake check they hand you that you have to try to imagine someone taking into a bank. that was a million dollars for selling that ticket to the jackpot. he says he was at home when a friend called to tell him that someone in chino hills had won the jackpot. he turned on the tv and saw his store on there. as soon as word got out, which was pretty much right after the drawing, this 7-eleven turned into an impromptu block party

and lasted all night. there were people here in the parking lot, in the store all night celebrating. people chanting chino hills, cheering, hoping they had the first billionaire lottery winner, but within a few hours the jackpot was cut from $1.6 billion to $528 million each. still not too shabby. and again, no one really expects the winner to show up here. that would be pretty bad advice if someone advised person to do them. sign the ticket, hide it somewhere, first person you should tell is a very competent tax attorney and nobody else until you have all your ducks in a row. keith, back to you. >> you bring up a good point, don't lose the tiny piece of paper, too. >> reporter: yes, very valuable. >> jennifer bjorklund live for us in california. thank you so much. here's a look back at local stores who sold smaller powerball prizes. in south jersey a $2 million

ticket was sold, and in southeast pennsylvania a $1 million ticket was bought in bethlehem, lehigh county, chester county, funny we're calling that a small prize, $1 million. that's where we find nbc 10's deanna durante in chester county. unfortunately, deanna, we didn't buy our tickets there. >> reporter: not too many people are coming forward saying that they did. here's the thing, they said that yesterday this lottery machine was down for a little while, so some people who came in today looking to see if the million dollar winner had shown up had to go elsewhere. everyone is still wondering who the person is, and even though your ticket may not be worth anything today, to some people it's worth a lot. it's choir day at the philadelphia senior center. >> jewelry and beading, exercise, bingo. wednesday is zumba. >> reporter: every day comes with new activities, and zumba

is becoming a favorite. >> makes you shake off the weight. >> reporter: at 78 years old, she likes trying new things and get free rides from home. many of these activities wouldn't be possible without all those lottery tickets, especially the losing ones. for each ticket sold the winner gets 62 cents, 29 cents goes to senior programs in pennsylvania. statewide centers provide 8.+q4 million meals and folks get to senior centers and grocery stores with the help of free bus rides, more than 44 million of them. and the lotto says in addition to property tax relief and resident rebates, back in 2013-2014, more than 20,000 older residents were given long-term care thanks to those worthless lottery tickets, the money you spent not going unnoticed by these folks. >> keep buying. you'll win one day, and we're winning from your buying. >> reporter: so even though we

may be two or ten or $20 poorer today, some people are thanking you for buying the lottery tickets. deanna durante, nbc 10 news. >> that's important. deanna, thank you so much. if you want to check your tickets one more time, here are the winning numbers, 4, 8, 19, 27, 34, and the powerball is 10. sheena, we didn't win, but any consolation, it's going to be warmer. >> i almost won $7. i got two of the white balls, but you don't get anything for two. >> it's the small wins that count. >> yeah. but i didn't win anything, so the $7 would have been fantastic. not even $7. we're still here and tracking warmer weather as we go into your friday. today quite a bit warmer than yesterday, 45 degrees right now, but there you see warmer air to our south and that's going to be moving up. cold air is moving back up north. for the rest of the area, mostly in the 40s, but areas like allentown 38 degrees right now,

39 in pottstown, 50 atlantic city, 46 millville, 48 degrees in dover and not going to be as cold tonight either. this is all ahead of a warmup coming along with a developing system in the gulf of mexico. so right now this is just a lot of moisture, but eventually it will become a quick moving nor'easter bringing us rain as we go into the start of your three-day, hopefully, weekend with mlk day being on monday. for the rest of tonight, 42 degrees by 6:00 p.m., not as cold outside. 40s by 8:00 p.m. and 10:0039 degrees. certainly not as cold as we have been lately. tomorrow quite a bit warmer with rain later tomorrow night. closer look at the timing coming up. >> sheena, thank you. here are some of the other stories making headlines at 5:00. local immigrant families are on edge amid rumors about raids by immigration and customs enforcement.

i.c.e. confirmed five people were detained in norristown. i.c.e. says it doesn't conduct raids, but apprehends people in the country illegally who are criminals, gang members, and threats to public safety. still, immigrant officials are saying the families are afraid of deportation sometimes so much that they keep their children out of schools. >> these are, you know, students, students who need to go to school and create stress in the children. >> kids are trying to make sure families know their rights, including they don't have to open their doors to authorities without a warrant. a grand jury charged a philadelphia man with kidnapping two people to get atm access. 40-year-old nathaniel rodriguez was arrested after police say they were able to track one of the victim's cell phones to him. police say in that incident rodriguez forced a doctor into

her car inside a center city parking garage and drove to a gas station where security video shows them unsuccessfully trying to get money from an atm. meanwhile, two university of delaware students had their purses stolen. newark police say this is one of the two men who did it. the girls were walking in wilbur street tuesday when the two guys snatched their bags. one girl tried to fight back. one of the men then punched her in the face. police tracked them down after they allegedly used the girls' credit cards at several stores. this is the car they were driving, a gray or maybe a silver mercury mountaineer. if you can help, call police. tonight chip kelly has a new job while the eagles are still empty handed. the potential coach that took his name out of the running and who's still on the short list. plus, protecting your valuables. how officers in south jersey are using a new type of technology to help you get your stolen stuff back.

themselves caring for their parents and kids and grandkids. >> at the point of life where they need to be thinking about and they should be doing very well financially find out, hold on, i not only have to take care of myself, but now three other generations? and so if they do lose that job, it's disaster. >> reporter: and by that he means foreclosure for your house in some cases. new jersey, florida, nevada, they lead the way in the foreclosure race and while foreclosures are down nationwide, foreclosures are sharply up in some individual cities. boston, st. louis, dallas, all heavy increases. many americans are getting back on track, able to pay the mortgage, feeling good, but many americans in our area still can't make it work. live in wilmington tonight, tim furlong, nbc 10 news. >> tim, thank you. the pennsylvania liquor control board is raising a glass to a record december. $310.3 million in total sales. about a 5% increase over the previous record. the busiest hour on new year's

high. i think what you're going to see out of donald trump and ted cruz are some jabs taken at one another. i think you're going to see donald trump taking shots at cruz, challenging whether he's a united states citizen and you'll see cruz calling trump liberal new yorker. >> that's a good segue right there. ted cruz not reporting two loans from goldman sacks and citi bank while running for senate. does his move there make him more vulnerable than before? >> i think the general public expects transparency, so to that end, yes, i think it will have some impact on cruz and he'll have some questions to answer. long-term whether the fec makes a determination and penalties come, remains to be seen, but he's said they are going to amend the filing and deal with the matter appropriately, but he will have questions to answer. >> let's talk about chris christie, back on the big stage tonight. we've heard a lot of buzz about

this. is this debate make or break for him? >> it's a real opportunity for governor christie, especially in the wake of president obama's state of the union the other night to capitalize on his experience in dealing with terrorism. i think he will respond to the issue by pointing out that an obama -- or hillary clinton presidency is just a third obama term as it pe tans to foreign policy and dealing with terrorism and he'll say the president not saying that isis is not a national threat is dead wrong and that maybe we should be asking the families of the folks in san bernardino, paris, and other victims of terrorism around the country. >> a lot we will learn tonight in north carolina. political analyst jim schultz, thank you so much for your time. >> thanks for having me on. now your nbc 10 first alert weather with meteorologist sheena parveen. >> well, today we are about 15 to 20 degrees warmer across the area than we were yesterday.
