a manhunt is underway in louisiana after a police officer was shot and killed last night. the officer was responding to a record of prowling. the police were able to track down the gunman but have an idea

who they are looking for. a suspected drunk driver was allowed to get on the runway in new orleans. we took out two fences and taxis on to the runway the man got through all layers of security fortunately he did not cause any other damage and was finally arrested just off airport property and was charged with hit and run and drunk driving. a 911 dispatcher is being disciplined for hanging up on someone that asked for help listen to what she toll the medics. the dispatcher offered no additional help after a man lost consciousness at a fitness center in gary indiana.
