magnitude of this evacuation and it all started with a man who says he was just headed down to the laundry room. a man calling 911 after smelling a strange gas. >> i smelled a smell and thought it was wrong so i found it in the basement, it was the furnace and called the property manager. >> reporter: firefighters evacuated the building and all the families inside at riverside condominiums in watertown. officials say three adults and three children had to be taken to the the building says it does have carbon monoxide dedetectors. >> reporter: back out here live i just spoke with the man who was out here fixing that furnace and he says it should be wrapped

>> tonight on 7, charged in a killing crash. a driver facing consequences from a restaurant tragedy. >> it took six months, but a grand jury has decided to hold a man responsible for the deadly drive. >> police say the driver barreled down chestnut street. we have night team coverage of the indictment and reaction from the victim's families. we start with tim caputo who is live in newton. >> reporter: that restaurant is the driver now facing charges and this is the day many people here in town thought would never come. almost exactly six months after an suv plowed through the front of a packed restaurant, the driver has been indicted. in early march when sweet tomatoes was filled with customers, this man came down the street and after sitting several cars his suv went right into the restaurant. he is now charged with two

homicide. a 32-year-old and a 57-year-old, two customers inside at the time were both killed. several others were hurt. people in newton wondered all summer if the driver would face charges. >> we were beginning to wonder because it's been so long. >> the middlesex county d.a. hasn't revealed what she believes happened inside that vehicle made him lose control. the third charge he's facing is operating to endanger. >> the facts ought to come out and if it's through the legal system, that's great. we knew when it occurred. we didn't know the circumstances and now presumably we'll learn that. >> as for the restaurant six months after the deadly crash it remains closed. just today as the indictment was announced, barriers were put in place on the sidewalk in front of sweet tomatoes and those who know the owners say it's been a long, difficult summer for everyone. >> we've tried to support the

there's been a lot of support. >> reporter: at this point no word on when the restaurant plans to reopen. as for that driver he will be arraigned in court, a date yet to be determined. >> tonight we're hearing from a brother of one of the victims who says his family is still struggling with the heartbreaking loss six months later. >> reporter: ryan, that victim was eleanor mele. she was here getting her loved ones description her as the spark of her family. >> it's been heart-breaking. we lost a piece of our heart that day. >> reporter: six months ago his beloved sister died when a car slammed into the restaurant where she was ordinarying a pizza. despite her untimely and tragic loss, they have never harbored

god, things happen in life that they can't explain. >> reporter: they have wanted the driver held accountable. >> the fact that, you know, we never heard from him, we never, i'm assuming his lawyer told him not to say anything. but what was going on in his miibd that night. >> the d.a. handed down an indictment against him. >> i'm saddened that we had to hear not through the district attorney's office. that's what i think i'm most upset of from that. >> reporter: the charges come just days before mele would have turned 58 years old. >> it's close to my sister's birthday, so it's a double whammy. >> the action bringing little healing, little confident to a

over us now. that's the only solace i can get out of that. >> reporter: and the family will mark eleanor's birthday on sunday. they say they plan to plant flowers and reveal a plaque at her church in her memory. kimberly bookman, 7 news night team. >> police say one person has been shot. police say the victim is a male but they haven't released his name or age. he's been taken to boston medical center with life-threatening >> we have made the world safer. we just have to make sure it's enforced. >> we need change, matt. we have to have it and we have to have it fast. >> a military mind set in the race for the white house. >> a first of its kind, commander in chief forum with both candidates getting grilled on foreign policy, the military and how to protect our country. let's go to andy hiller now. >> we got to see the candidates back to back, not face to face.

hillary clinton and donald trump to make a comparison and pick a winner. >> reporter: clinton went first because she lost the coin toss and was followed by trump. though they spoke at different times, some of the questions were the same. for example, what's the most important quality in a commander in chief? >> steadiness. an absolutely rock steadiness. and mixed with strength, to be able to make the hard experience of watching and working with several presidents. >> i think the main thing is i have great judgment. i have good judgment. i know what's going on. i've called so many of the shots. >> reporter: and while they were never together, they still managed to get into an argument about whether or not trump supported the invasion of iraq. >> now my opponent was for the war in frauk. he says he wasn't. you can go back and look at the record. he supported it before it happened, he supported it as it was happening and he is on

happened. >> i was totally against the war in iraq. you can look at esquire magazine from '04, you can look at before that, and i was against the war in iraq because i said it's going to totally destabilize the middle east, which it has. >> for me the winner was the candidate who did the most to expand their support and win over undecided voters. and i think that was donald trump. he was lucky. he could be relatively relaxed because his questions were easier. while clinton was kept on the e-mails, nuclear deal with iran and her vote for the war in iraq. so trump may have won a vote or two, but there are much bigger wins at stake ahead, because this was just a tease. click-bait for the real debates with the first now less than three weeks away. i'm andy hiller and that's my instinct. >> also from the night team, hingham firefighters tackle an

through this home. brandon gunnoe with the details. >> reporter: ryan, it was dangerous because the person living inside was in the process of moving out. so the firefighters said when they went in it was like an obstacle course of moving boxes. they finally got this fire under control but they had to battle hot spots for about eight hours. >> flames were shooting out of this home in hingeham. >> i was in my house, i heard a ma >> reporter: with the flames it was too dangerous to fight from inside. >> we had flame coming out three windows on the second floor so we had to go to an outside attack. >> they came running out and i was worried there was a gas leak or something and there was two big moving trucks and they left. and the fire trucks came. >> reporter: it started just after 2:00 at this three-family home. the woman on the top floor was

she wasn't urt h, thanks to the movers who made sure everyone got out safely. >> they got a report that they smelled smoke. they noticed dark smoke in the living room area. >> reporter: this firefighter suffered heat exhaustion and had to go to the hospital. >> this is her second day of moving out so she had a lot of stuff packed up and ready for that and we had to work around that and that made it difficult for the crews. >> reporter: now, the homeowner is staying with the neighbor up the street. she's okay, the cause of the fire is still under investigation but the chief said it appears to be an accident. we're live in hingham. >> traj zi hitting boston university an a freshman was hit and killed by a train. police say the driver of the next train stopped and called police. investigators do not suspect foul play. >> a woman in court today charged with drunk driving.

can hold down the forth with tom brady suspended. >> no one knows what to expect from jimmy garoppolo. when the lights come on on sunday night, we'll all find out for sure. >> these are the games that count now. throughout the whole building you can just feel it and i wouldn't have it any other way. >> reporter: jimmy garoppolo taking the reins from tom brady who left w heading off on his four-game banishment. >> it wasn't anything crazy, just good-bye and good luck really. he wished me luck and i think he wished it for the whole team. he's very supportive of us and we appreciate that. >> reporter: with brady's presence limited to a giant banner for the next month, garoppolo has noticed a change in work flow. >> it's a smoother operation.

all the reps are between the two of us now. it's different without tom, no question about it. but it is what it is at this point. >> reporter: the patriots current quarterback says he's ready for one simple reason. >> he has no choice. same guy every day. as a leader of the offense and as a quarterback it's what you want to see every day for the team and he's doing a good job of it. >> reporter: and earning a starting job has been garoppolo's goal all along. >> this is why you play the game. you play to be in you don't want to be the backup. the opportunity is here. just got to go take advantage of it. >> reporter: all of new england opening garoppolo takes advantage of that opportunity. and he's going right into the fire as an underdog at arizona on sunday night. reporting live in the news room. >> there's only one place to see it right here 07:00, we'll get you started with 7 on the side lines at 6:30. >> up next tonight they're wild and they're out of control.

but people we talked to said you don't want to be facing down a beak of one of these angry birds. >> they will chase you. >> reporter: turkeys terrorizing foxboro. >> drop kicking people and forcing them up against trees. >> reporter: animal control getting calls about the wild birds, striking fear in the hearts of those who get to close. >> stay away. stay in the car and get away. >> reporter: i don't go near them at tur keys taking their time crossing to the other side. >> police will come by and put the sirens on and it doesn't scare them. >> reporter: susan brown has had her fair share of run-ins and watching the birds go from yard to yard searching for food which is sometimes left by people. >> there's some people that will feed them bread and stuff it's what makes it come more often. >> reporter: animal control says that's part of the problem. bird feeders too. even though they can get aggressive, one of the worst

>> they're not afraid of you, at all. >> reporter: it only makes these even more aggressive. >> demon tur keys. they're pretty big. >> i think it's more of a nuisance than anything else. i don't think they're dangerous, use common sense, stay away and they'll move on. >> reporter: animal control saying it is important to get the pecking order back in order. that is, to let these turkeys be afraid of humans. so they say stand your ground if you come into contact with one and if you absolutely have to, spray s that's the latest live in foxboro. >> a policy change is landing a holy oaks school in the national spotlight. >> no more homework, period. school has implemented a homework-free policy. the district has been classified as under-performing so this new plan will extend the school day by nearly two hours. they want to focus on high-quality teacher instruction

school. parents seem to support the change. >> they are doing a lot more work in school. >> i think it's cool because they're able to go to the ymca have more interaction over there. >> parents have things to do after school sports and things like that and laundry and it makes more time for us to be together. >> the school has more than 500 students in grades k-8. i know for people like j.r. and i, leave the math to the teachers. i the way they're teaching it now is different than when we were kids. that's the challenge. let me google this and see about how to do that. i don't know ask your mother. >> temps in the 70s. 90s. i point that out because eventually that heat races up into new england, especially on friday. right now upper 60s, the city at 68, bedforward at 69.

stuck south of new england tonight yet again but she's doing her number on new england with her moisture in the air and the clouds, isolated showers and drizzle and mist and dew points that are off the charts once again and that holds firm overnight and through the day tomorrow. temps overnight tonight upper 60s to around 70s. if we didn't have anything else in the at fire that would sit and spin itself out of existence but we do have another system and that is of nudge hermine or whatever remains. still humid tomorrow, 78 to 84. and that whether system moves through new england tomorrow night with a few isolated showers and downpours. the best chance of these showers will be in western new england and as they move east overnight tomorrow night, like so many other bands of rain, they will

any good for us and slide away during the morning hours on friday. and speaking of friday, that's the hot ones where we start with clouds and developing sunshine, temps on friday close to 90. tomorrow upper 70s and low 80s and on friday we are all heading for the low 90s. the city around 91 friday afternoon. bedford 91 as well. likely to be our 21st day this year where the city reaches at least 90 degrees. it's been a while whereve also the humidity again. it does begin to fade away so by friday and more so toward the end of the weekend behind another weather system. it will be a second cool front that comes into new england and provides a chance of a couple of isolated showers. here's that weather system gaining strength but it falls apart as it moves through new england. there is a risk of an isolated shower on saturday morning and again i think on sunday morning, but neither day appears to have any significant rain, which of

to get some significant rain. but that's not having. have a good night. >> thanks, jr. changes coming in the way of apple. the iphone 7 will include a 7 and 7-plus model. one change, apple has removed the jack for standard headphones. earbuds will be wireless but they will come with an adapter for standard style headphones. other improvements the phone is water resistant and better camera. just more things to chge >> but you're going to line up. >> i will. >> joe, how about you? are you getting the 7? >> no, i'm going to stick with the 6 right now. it's work are for me. but we need to talk about jimmy garoppolo at this point. think about what's in for on sunday night going up against the cardinals in arizona. he sounds confident, this guy chandler jones sounds like he's out for revenge.

t checking from santander bank. ? are you feeling alright, baby? ? >> the training wheels are just about avenue for jimmy garoppolo who is expected to look, talk, act and hopefully play like a

on sunday night in arizona. garoppolo sliding into brady's role as the star of the show on wednesday, the day he addresses the media and smiles for the camras. and as the intensity picks up surrounding the season opener, garoppolo says the game itself is finally slowing down for him. >> i feel like it has, especially since rookie year and last year. i think the biggest part of that is the mental part. once you know the offense, you know what you' defense and everything like that, you can mentally break it down to you almost know where you're going with the ball. it's a comfortable feeling. i mean, not that it's moving in slow motion, but it's moving a lot slower than what it was. >> patriots crossing their fingers that rob gronkowski will be up to speed by sunday.

chandler jones circled this weekend on his calendar back in march. it is his chance to show his new team what he's capable of and remind the old team about what they're missing. there's an inside joke that i'm laughing about. the former pats rusher is hoping revenge is as hot as the desert he calls home. jones making his debut against the team he racked up 36 sacks for. he is treatin game, but if any of his new teammates ask what should concern them most about the patriots, he'll gladly dish out some advice. >> i use the word concerning but one thing i do know about the patriots is they'll try to expose certain weaknesses. they do a good job of studying who has a weak link on the team. that's one thing i try to look out for.
