and were they dragging the tire or something? so that will come up in the investigation. >> anchor: there again aeronautic and astronautics professor. he saided evacuation procedure helped save the crew and passengers and said they were lucky to all get out safely. >> anchor: breaking news on the campaign trail. a major development in the hillary clinton e-mail scandal. the f.b.i. reopening its investigation because of some uncovered. we've learned those e-mails were found during a totally different investigation. >> anchor: they were discovered during a sexting investigation involving disraced congressman anthony weiner. donald trump waving no time weighing in. we have team 7 coverage of the breaking story. let's begin with tim caputo. >> reporter: just when hillary clinton thought she moved beyond the e-mail scandal it's an october bombshell late in this election race. the f.b.i. once again looking into e-mails linked to the

a week and a half until election day and hillary clinton's e-mails are once again in the spotlight. f.b.i. director james comby sent a letter to congress today stating that new e-mails have come to light recently that have promised investigators to take another look at hillary clinton's use of a private e-mail server while secretary of state. federal law enforcement officials tell the "new york times" that the new e-mails were found on seized electronic devices belonging to anthony weiner and humana abadein as feds illicit at the messages allegedly set to a girl north carolina. director comby's letter refers to e-mails that have come to light in an unrelated case. but we have no idea what those e-mails are and the director himself knows they may not even be significant. clinton arrived shortly after the new f.b.i. investigation came to light but didn't mention the new probe. instead she focused her message on getting out the vote.

young people voting, more people of color voting. >> reporter: one federal official telling the times there were more than 1,000 new e-mails. the state department said it would work with the f.b.i. on the investigation if asked. we're at the point where we're trying to figure out what these e-mails even pertain to. whether they are relevant to her time as secretary of state. can't make any assumptions at this point that they are but they may be. >> anchor: clinton's campaign said they are confident this will not produce any cosi f.b.i. concluded back in july. clinton does have several more campaign stops tonight but no word if she lance to address in new appropriate. live in the control room, at the cap out oh, 7 news. >> anchor: trump and republicans with lots to say about this. dan hausle live in manchester where trump spoke earlier this afternoon. dan? . >> reporter: well ad-libed this late edition of the speech. after tense minutes of talking about it he said the rest of my speech will be ready boring.

were no serious things done. but how does it get much more? but that was so obvious. >> reporter: trump also met with a small group of advocates against addiction here in new hampshire. but even then, admitted news of the day might overshadow that issue. trump even saying election might not be rigged after all. this was a grave miscarriage of justice that the american people fully understood and it is is about to be corrected. although he is running a bit late trump said he is going to stay with all of his events including a trip to maine now and then cedar rapids iowa tonight and phoenix, arizona tomorrow. you can bet his staff already working to edit his speech to make best use of the news of the day. live in manchester, new hampshire, dan hausle, 7 news. >> anchor: so how big of a

election? our political editor andy hiller is here with his instinct. kim, in any other campaign this would be the october surprise that could change the outcome of an election that's just days away. but this campaign isn't like any other and, therefore, whether you a democrat, republican, or independent voter you shouldn't be surprised. there has been a big question about honestly hanging over hillary clinton ever since her unauthorized e-mail server was discovered clinton appeared to put it behind her when f.b.i. director james comby announced this summer she should not be prosecuted, even though she was "exceedingly careless handling classified material." that might have ended it, but then there was a wave of wikileaks, thousands of hacked e-mails to her from hillary and her top staffers and now the "new york times" is reporting the new e-mails were discovered as pat of the probe into disgraced former congressman

clinton's top aide. and the f.b.i. is back on the case again. today comby said he doesn't know if the new e-mails are significant or how long it will take to review them. we'll hear is something i already know. if you thought this campaign couldn't get any meaner, you are wrong. live in the newsroom, andy hiller and that's my instinct. >> anchor: republican vp nominee mike pence coming on a scare on the runway last night at new york's la guardia airport. pence's plane getting off stop quickly. no one on board was injured. pence appeared on "today" where she described the incident as ten seconds of uncertainty and thanked first responders for their quick action. as soon as we landed we could tell they were trying to break the aircraft pretty quickly and we felt the plane fish tailing a little bit then it slid sideways and when we saw the mud slash splash up on windows up in the front of the

runway but we're so grateful. it seemed like the first responders were literally around the airplane before it came to a rest. >> anchor: the ntsb now investigating that landing and says they are interviewing other pilots that landed their planes in the rain last night without any problems. determining the point of touchdown will be key to this investigation. it's no secret that many airports landed ahead of this airplane and did so successfully so we'll want to find other crews ahead of them to find out if they had any difficulty stopping their airports on this runway. >> anchor: pence said he won't taking any time off the campaign trail because of this. >> anchor: and there is more news today. in fact in just a few hours from now massachusetts drivers will have open roads on the pike. that means you no longer have to stop to pay a toll but this switch to an electronic system could take a toll. traffic patterns will be undergoing changes and delays

live at the allston brighton tolls to tell us more. kim, there will be three phases to the project lasting a little more than a year. phase one lasts about three weeks and it will cause the most disruption. here is what's going to happen. there is toll booth. they will begin to demo it and they will work on the middle sexes first so they can get lanes flowing through the middle by thanksgiving. they say no pain, no commuters especially over the next few weeks as crews begin demolishing the state's toll booths. the work begins in the morning. but the state promises the gains will be considerable. it will be as though we never had tolls on the massachusetts turnpike. that's why we are confident we are going to see a safer pike and more convenient pike, a pike with fewer fender benders, a pike where people are burning less gas and emanating less

hurts traffic and putting 23 construction zones on 132 plus miles of roadway at the same time is going to have its challenges. >> reporter: mass highway is asking people to act as if there with a snowstorm every day, leave early, car pool, try the commuter rail, but no extra service is being added right no. we will be monitoring the situation on the commuter rail around if we see crowding we will work with our commuter rail provider to increase coach seats if we need to. >> anchor: for those that don't have easy pass transponders you on-line or go through a call center for a while. those are going dark. we must begin to shift data and account information to ez drive mass so to accomplish that the ez pass call centers will go down. >> reporter: we found people lining up to get them at ez pass customer service centers. they will have expanded hours this weekend. these people are hoping that once all of the construction is complete by new year's day 2018

will be easier. once the toll booths are taken down, yeah, i mean, as long as have you one traffic should move it is it will be faster i think. >> reporter: really? i hope. >> reporter: there is always hope, right? people who don't get these ez pass transponders will get bills in the mail at i higher price. cameras will take a picture of your license plate but again there is a six month grace period so as long as you sign up r lower price again for six months. live in allston at the tolls, jonathan hall, 7 news. >> anchor: after a frightening ride that ended with a car crashing into a beacon hill butting an uber passenger is speaking to 7 news. she was a passenger in that car that slammed through the brick wall. steve cooper is live in boston to tell us more about what she had to say. steve? what a ride this was. adam look at the gaying hole behind us boarded one plywood as you mentioned tonight we are
