that will be steeply discounted, $300 instead of $600. but a cheaper generic version has been stuck in regulatory red tape. we asked why, and we learned mylan has fought a fierce war to stop a low-cost epi pen from hitting pharmacy shelves. >> and then i jab it in my legs for ten seconds. >> reporter: haleigh andrews and her mother have used an ep i pen several times for the young gymnast with food allergies. there are just seconds to act. >> we can't go without the epi pen. it's a matter of life and death. >> reporter: the company behind epi pen mylan now says it will make a generic version of the drug that's 50% cheaper. but the nbc 10 investigators uncovered documents that showed mylan and its production partners have fought for years to stop a cheaper version of the drug.

this so-called citizens petition asked the fda not to approve the generic epi pen reportedly designed by israeli pharma company. in a study paid for by mylan, the generic product would have a failure rate of 93%. but the study had no control group. and participants did not actually manipulate the device or perform the injection. >> the study was just flawed from start to finish. >> reporter: diana zuckerman heads a nonprofit fda watchdog. she said studies like this waste health regulatorregulators' tim stall approval of generic products. michael carrier has studied more than a decade's worth of citizens' petitions and found nine out of ten come not from patients, but from brand name companies arguing that cheaper generics should be blocked. >> it's not about what a citizen petition is about, it's really

about the brand company, delaying the generic form from entering the market. >> it's being used by industry, it should be called an industry competitors petition. we hope the fda would know better than to take it seriously. >> reporter: mylan sent us a statement saying the generic epi pen doesn't meet fda rules for generics. experts say the study is flawed, mylan told us it offered a valid examination of the product design and how the injector might be used in an emergency. by the way, carrier also blames teva for delays. in 2012, teva settled a lawsuit related to the epi pen. and that supplement reportedly agreed to delay production of their generic for at least three years. >> it does raise a whole bunch of questions as to whether or not teva entered as quickly as it could have.

>> reporter: this family is hoping the new round of scrutiny will hope the floodgates of how life saving drugs are approved. >> i hope they can explain, and are held accountable. i hope that it stops. i hope the stall tactics stop. >> after taking nearly six months to review mylan's petition to block teva's generic, the fda denied mylan's challenge. at the same time, the fda has continued to withhold approval. the fda won't say why the generic is not ready for market. the agency said that information is confidential to teva. a spokeswoman for teva said they found major deficiencies with their design. the company did not address its previous settlement to delay production. jacqueline and keith? >> george spencer, thank you so much. a live look at cape may, where dangerous rip currents are causing problems in the water for beachgoers during the unofficial last week of summer. i can't believe i'm saying that

already. last week of summer. further south, the calm before the storm in north carolina. a massive tropical depression is set to clip the outer banks. it's expected to bring winds up to 45 miles per hour. and of course, heavy rains. the question a lot of people around here are asking, what does this mean for us? >> let's send it over to sheena parveen with more. >> yeah, for us it means we're going to see an increase in our rip current threat. that's going to be right at the shore. now, that is mostly going to be tomorrow as well as later on today. but temperatures right now are still on the warm side. you can still enjoy today. look at the shore points, though. we have a pretty good onshore wind, 81 degrees stone harbor, 83 in avalon. the onshore wind giving some areas upper 70s like ventnor city 78 degrees. but with that tropical depression, staying offshore, it is going to increase our risk for rip currents along the shore and the delaware beaches. farther inland, we don't have to worry about even increasing wind speeds.

we're going to stay dry, even by tonight, philadelphia 84 degrees. sunny still. by later on this evening, it will still be fairly warm, but still pretty comfortable. here's a look at the radar. we have a tropical depression in the gulf of mexico. the other one right off the coast of north carolina. not too large here. it will skim the outer banks and give us the higher risk for rip currents. along the jersey shore and the delaware beaches, rip current threat, it will be lasting through labor day weekend. we'll talk more about that, and what you can expect coming up. firing gunshots at another vehicle. heading toward atlantic city. >> new details, the new 911 calls following this deadly shootout on the a.c. expressway. we brought you the story yesterday. tonight five people are under arrest. nbc 10's jim rosenfield joins us live from the breaking news center. >> he has the details on the arrests plus more of the 911 calls. >> new jersey state police released a photo of a third vehicle that may have been involved in the gun fire, which

sent those bullets flying along the busy highway in grod daylight. it's a dodge ram. it has a temporary delaware plate. there you see some damage to the fender. this is another vehicle involved. the ford expedition that finally stopped at an egg harbor township wawa. it was hit with some 21 bullets. three men and a 16-year-old boy inside the suv were wounded. troopers found 22-year-old roseman octavius of egg harbor township dead in the passenger seat of a nissan on the nearby garden state parkway. 911 calls described the chaos as it unfolded in broad daylight. >> total of five people have now been charged with weapons offenses, including four from the expedition, and also the

driver of the nissan who was not hurt. state police say it is not yet clear exactly who shot whom. live in our breaking news center, jim rosenfield, nbc 10 news. >> jim, thank you. to a developing story now. the number two in command for isis was reportedly killed in an attack in syria. abu mohammad al adnani was also the spokesperson for the terror group. he sent six years in u.s. custody after being jailed in iraq. officials have not confirmed how the isis leader died. decision 2016 coverage. donald trump appears to be chipping away at hillary clinton's national lead. in a new nbc news survey monkey poll, it appears clinton is losing support among independent voters. trump arrived in california today. four leading house democrats said they want the fbi to

investigate whether trump's campaign was involved in the recent hack of democratic party computers. the letter to director james comey notes connections between russia and aides including former campaign manager paul manaforte. >> kaine is saying trump is being too secretive for his finances, foreign ties, taxes and even his health. he speak in erie today. he said the republican nominee has utterly failed to answer basic questions about his finances and background. nbc 10's lauren mayk joins us from lancaster, where kaine holds a rally later tonight. lauren? >> reporter: jacqueline, this is not a county where democrats running for president have had a lot of success. but this is where democrat tim kaine is spending his time today. the campaign says that they believe there are voters here, in particular college educated voters, possibly republicans they can appeal to.

it is a strategy similar to the one they're using in the philadelphia suburbs. on the ground in lancaster, volunteers and supporters await democratic vice presidential nominee tim kaine. >> i was very surprised when they said he was coming. >> reporter: kathleen said she thought maybe they would get a visit later in the campaign. but kaine's first solo swing through pennsylvania includes a stop in lancaster. do you think having him here means that the campaign might be able to make more inroads here, more of a traditionally conservative county? >> yes, i do. >> reporter: it comes three weeks to the day after mike pence stopped in the region. >> lancaster is typically more republican, i think. but with donald trump as the candidate, it definitely makes it a lot more interesting, and maybe some people are feeling different than they would in other years. >> reporter: laurie's been hosting phone banks at her home

for the clinton-kaine ticket and she's encouraged by what she's seen. >> the turnout has been amazing. we did the same activities for the obama campaign back in 2008 and 2012. and we are seeing about three times as many people showing up at our phone banks and volunteering. >> reporter: she plans to keep working. they're not taking anything for granted. they'll work right up until election day. we have also learned that governor tom wolf will accompany senator tim kaine here to this event at the boys and girls club in lancaster. they also made a stop at a local store. senator kaine will be speaking in less than an hour. live in lancaster, i'm lauren mayk, nbc 10 news. >> lauren, thank you. staying in the keystone state, there's a new attorney general in pennsylvania. today the state senate unanimously confirmed bruce beemer as the new top cop. he was sworn in privately in governor wolf's officer. he said beemer had the skills to

road. i'm convinced here, my dog, charlie, understands every word i say. >> i love the way he cocks his head. scientists say they now have proof our pooches can understand human language. erica edwards with the details. >> reporter: dogs have many ways of telling us how they're feeling, from happy, to not so happy, maybe even a little embarrassed sometimes. now there's evidence dogs can understand humans, too. researchers in hungary trained dogs to sit very still in a functional mri scanner. trainers then spoke words both familiar and unfamiliar to the dogs in various ways. in a sing-song good boy voice in a neutral tone, then good boy. brain scans showed the dogs processed the words correctly, regardless of tone and how they

sounded. meaning they understood the meaning of the words. how do they do it? the theory is that dogs start to understand that the words good boy are a good thing when they're said in a positive tone. even if our furry friends sometimes have selective hearing -- >> sit down. hey, sit. >> reporter: -- eventually they figure it out. >> good boy. >> reporter: erica edwards, nbc 10 news. >> so now my puppy charlie has no excuses anymore. he's going to be listening to everything i say. >> we knew they were smart. charlie and bella are smart, too. charlie, i guess i do it in that voice. >> it doesn't matter how old they are or how old we get. >> mine has selective hearing unless i have food. it's funny. but yes, we love the dogs. i'm sure you can bring the dogs out to the beach this weekend. but be very careful if you're heading in the water.

because we have a higher risk of rip currents as we go from tomorrow, possibly through your labor day weekend because of two different tropical systems. this is rehoboth beach right now. clear skies right now. beautiful weather today. in fact, it will be dry as we go into your labor day weekend. so that is the good news. that's the forecast everyone's waiting for. if you look at the bottom of your screen, you'll see your seven-day. you'll notice quite a bit of a cooldown by the end of the week after the rain. 90 in philadelphia. delaware temperatures near 90 degrees. south jersey neighborhoods about the mid-80s for the most part. new castle county, wilmington 86. reedy point 87 degrees. dover, 87. ellendale 83 degrees. and closer to the beaches in sussex county, temperatures here are more around 80 degrees. because of the onshore wind. rehoboth beach coming in right around 80. so very comfortable. but it is the rip current risk that we'll be watching as we go

through your labor day weekend. but also, for tomorrow as well. along sussex county beaches and cape may, atlantic county, moderate risk of rip currents. we'll watch to see if it needs to increased a little bit. be very careful. sky conditions looking really good, though. one tropical depression off the north carolina coastline, that's the smaller one. the bigger one in the gulf of mexico, that's tropical depression that may be named very soon. but now we're looking a little closer to home. there's the smaller tropical depression off the carolina coast. could be skimming the outer banks. we expect it to move out to sea. we do not expect rain from it. that will be the first one to impact those rip currents along the shore. locally we're nice and dry. a few pop-up shores along the shore points, in atlantic and cape may counties today, even in sussex county. but those showers have ended. we'll take a look at tropical depression 8, still a tropical

depression. but quickly it should be taking a turn out to sea. could become a very weak tropical storm, as it does so. it will churn our waters up even more, so that rip current risk will be increasing. tropical depression number 9, in the gulf of mexico. it's still a tropical depression. it could become a tropical storm before it makes landfall. that would put it somewhere along the florida panhandle, and north of the tampa area. this is the most updated tracks from the national hurricane center. that would be by thursday afternoon. crossing over much of the southeast, moving out into the atlantic again, that would be by about saturday where it's closest to our coastline. but not moving in. it's going to stay offshore. but again, affecting our rip currents. we'll be watching that very closely. we don't expect rain from it, but we do expect an increase in, again, the rip currents at the shore. for tomorrow, your forecast looking pretty good. 88 degrees. if you are in reading, mostly sunny skies.

if you're in new jersey, temperatures still around 90 degrees. tomorrow trenton 88 degrees. along the shore, that's where we have the threat of rip currents, that's why we have the red exclamation points. swim by lifeguards. dover, 86. wilmington coming in at 89 degrees. coming up, we'll take a closer look at your labor day weekend forecast. of course, the big cooldown before we get there, that's straight ahead. it came from 95 light years away, but generating quite a bit of interest tonight. and fired up. what a local man does to an nfl jersey that's made him the subject of a viral video.

my son has meningitis b. but how did we end up here? his mom thought he had the flu and that he was covered by the meningococcal meningitis vaccine he had received. until 2014 there were no vaccines for meningitis b in the u.s. now there are. while uncommon, meningitis b can lead to death within 24 hours. trumenba is a vaccine for 10 through 25 year olds to help prevent group b meningococcal disease. trumenba should not be given if you had a severe allergic reaction after a previous dose. most common side effects were injection-site pain, fatigue... headache, muscle pain, and chills. ask your doctor or pharmacist about all the risks and benefits of trumenba and tell them if you've received any other meningitis b vaccines. meningitis b can be spread by typical sharing like... a drink... a spoon...

a kiss. it all started here... it might have been prevented with trumenba. ask your doctor or pharmacist about trumenba. david was proud to be an american soldier. and i know i'm prejudiced because he was my son, but i don't think he had a mean bone in his body. there is not a day that i don't think about david. when i saw donald trump attack another gold star mother, i felt such a sense of outrage.

"she was standing there, she had nothing to say..." if donald trump cannot respect a gold star family, then why would anyone in america think he would respect them. votevets is responsible for the content of this advertising. officials don't know what caused six balconies to collapse at a long island, new york, apartment building this morning, but could be linked to repairs nearby. fortunately no one was on those balconies when they fell, or got hit even. the fallout continues from colin kaepernick's anthem protest. people have been flooding social media with reaction, and most of it on the negative side. this video was posted by nathan of easton. since the video was uploaded, it's received nearly 4 million views. in the video, he throws a kaepernick jersey into a hole and lights it on fire.

rain to parts of north carolina and then track out to sea. not necessarily bringing us showers, but affecting us with that rip current threat. what we're looking at from tropical depression 8 is today into tomorrow, focusing on that moderate risk for dangerous rip currents. that's the color you see here in blue, parts of the jersey shore, as well as the delaware beaches under that threat. we drop farther south. this is now sitting to the southwest of florida. but pumping a lot of rain into florida. the projected path here if it continues should pull through florida and up the east coast. now, once it does that, it nears us around saturday into sunday, again we are looking at that moderate risk for dangerous rip currents friday, saturday, sunday. that means right into the heart of when you might be heading to one of the beaches or the shore. this is a heads-up, something we'll be continuing to watch with tropical depression 9 as it moves along our direction. just a reminder, if you do get yourself in that dangerous situation, do not try to swim against that pull, but instead

try to swim parallel to the shore until you're no longer feeling the tug and then diagonal back to the shore. let's talk about temperatures. those will be dropping, but still hot right now. let's go to first alert meteorologist sheena par sheen. >> it still feels like summer. average high 83. today many areas still around 90 degrees. but nice sky conditions out there. that will continue, good news, through your labor day weekend. we'll have to deal with some rain showers, maybe some thunderstorms before we get there, but in the meantime will we're going to stay dry. 89 degrees philadelphia. 87 degrees for wilmington, delaware. we'll look at the philadelphia neighborhoods. we have warmed up nicely this afternoon. 88 degrees rittenhouse. society hill 88 degrees. take a look at what our temperature trend has been. we're talking about the heat. it will continue again tomorrow. temperatures have been in the 90s since last friday.

so here's your shore forecast if you're heading here for the labor day weekend. temperatures mostly near 80 degrees saturday, low humidity, sunday, mid-70s by monday. temperatures right around 80 degrees. again, that rip current risk. sky conditions look good. we look to be mostly dry over your labor day weekend. so that's also the good news no matter where you're heading across the area. the tropics, one small tropical depression off the coast of north carolina. another one off the coast of south florida. we're watching both of these because they both will be affecting those rip currents i just mentioned. tropical depression number 8 is off the coast of north carolina. that one will take a sharp turn and move out to sea, possibly as a tropical storm. for tomorrow, we're also calling for that rip current risk at the jersey shore. and the delaware beaches. by this weekend, tropical depression number 9, that one will be causing issues as well. could be making landfall anywhere from the florida panhandle to north of tampa by thursday. that would provide a lot more

rainfall in florida than what they're seeing now. off the coast by saturday. another issue with the rip currents. we'll take a closer look at that, and your weekend forecast, coming up. this is a live look at cape may where the surf is rough right now. a far offshore tropical depression has stirred up the ocean. breakers could break up to four feet knocking swimmers over. and another beach popular with us, the outer banks. >> mike seidel has the latest from kill devil hills, north carolina. >> reporter: here on the outer banks of north carolina, we're watching tropical depression number 8. it's going to be a brush by the locals, they're not concerned at all. >> hopefully it goes by quick and i can be back at the beach. >> reporter: worst of it could be some gusty winds, maybe downpours before it makes the turn and heads out to sea on wednesday. we have lost a little bit of sand. there is a bit of a berm here. high tide this morning only came up to about here.

last night high tide went almost to the lifeguard stand. this moves out. then they'll be watching tropical depression number 9 which is down in the gulf of mexico. that is forecast to track well offshore friday, that we don't get any direct impact. but once again, it will be a surf and rip current issue. i'm meteorologist mike seidel, the weather channel, for nbc 10 news, kill devil hills, north carolina. a typhoon slammed into northern japan last night. the storm forced some residents to evacuate. it is the biggest case of cattle rustles neighbors have ever heard of. someone stole 500 cows in a farm in new zealand. it happened over the past month. the farmer isn't sure when. he had 1,300 cows in his herd and it took him a while to realize some were missing.
