end quote. lochte had told the "today" show's bully bush that he and three teammates were robbed at gun point outside a rio gas station. they were on their way back to the athletes village from a party. but this video was released yesterday. the swimmers were drunk when they vandalized a bathroom and got in an argument with the armed security guards. they pointed their guns at the swimmers and asked them to pay for the damage. lochte said, it's traumatic to be out late with your friends in a strange country and have a stranger point a gun at you. regardless of behavior of anyone else that night, i should have been much more responsible in how i handled myself. we can tell you that lochte also apologized to fans, teammates, and fellow competitors. this is what he said. he said he's very proud to represent this country and this is a situation that could and

should have been avoided. we'll have more as the situation continues to develop from rio. turning now to the competition here in rio de janeiro, brazil, and what to watch this evening. some big events coming up. on the track at olympic stadium, usain bolt said he will run the last race of his career tonight. he will compete in the 4x100 relay. he won gold in the men's 200 last night. english gardner and team usa compete in the 4x100 this evening. she qualified for the final after a botched handoff in the first heat. the second qualifying time is the fastest against anyone tonight. philly native nia ali, i had the pleasure of interviewing her and the two others in the sweep in the 100-meter hurdles. they came here to the broadcast center. i had the opportunity to talk to them. you'll hear what they had to say coming up in just a few minutes

one of his biggest target audiences. >> it's a reinforcing ad about immigration policy. >> donald trump's trump america is secure. terrorists and dangerous criminals kept out. >> reporter: in his first general election ad, donald trump takes aim at hillary clinton, but according to political science experts like dr. matthew kerble, trump does not confront the ads against him. >> those who are convinced donald trump is the candidate who can handle problems with immigration, and believe there are problems with immigration, are likely to have their opinions reinforced. >> is that something that speaks to you? >> it's very important to me. yeah, i think with everything going on in our world today, we need to have our borders in check. >> reporter: sherri stewart of newtown square who works it in the school district said she's undecided. >> hillary clinton's america stays rigged. >> reporter: and a mother and

nurse have made up their mind. what kind of impact does it have on you? >> i think it emphasizes that he's not qualified for the job. >> you can tell them to go [ bleep ] themselves. >> reporter: the clinton campaign has been running ads like this one, for most of the summer in pennsylvania, spending millions of dollars. trump will spend just under a million to air his in the keystone state. luis ortiz in lancaster county tells me it doesn't make a difference. so this ad from trump and the attack ads that hillary clinton has been running for weeks in pennsylvania, not making a difference to you? not swaying you in any way? >> no, i wouldn't say so. >> now, in addition to pennsylvania, trump will run his ads in florida and north carolina. turning to your first alert weather now. nbc 10 in norristown, we found
