>> the visit of pope francis has been joyful for so many people. but it's also been tough on some residents and some businesses. action news reporter jeff is live with that part of our story. >> we are getting throngs of people coming from the festival down here on the 100 block of south 13th street. as you remember, the mayor all along saying he expects a million plus. but some local businesses say they are just not seeing the crowds. the brick oven pizza say sales are down some 50% today. now, this is a story that's being repeated at restaurants all across, some saying that the security measures scared away the locals and prevented many others from coming in.

throngs of pilgrims here for a spiritually uplifting experience aren't doing much to lift local business' bottom line. the restaurant didn't even need to open an entire dining room. >> usually saturday night we have an hour to two hours wait. tonight there is no wait. we get people to come in. >> the general manager planned for huge crowds but believes the million plus visitors the city predicted didn't show. >> i think we are doing a little better than other restaurants because of the location. but we are not getting the business that we were supposed to get. >> some businesses like the melting pot didn't bother to open. elsewhere, empty tables were a common sight. a clerk at a jewelery and accessory store said business was slow. while across the street this art gallery had a decent day thanks to the pop art it stocked up.

>> we definitely benefited from creating artwork that people make. >> some of these restaurants, they say they paid for a lot of extra food that simply was not used this weekend. they are going to have to throw some of of that away. a major restaurant tour says business is worse than during hurricane sandy. we are live in center city, channel 6 action news. >> all right. thank you so much. we'll continue with the coverage thank you so much. we'll continue with the coverage of pope i was about to head to thecheck. bank, but out of nowhere it just started to rain. like really rain.

he just cares about what he's doing and cares about everyone that he meets. >> and pope francis will rest his head at the seminary tonight. tomorrow morning he will meet with a group of 300 bishops from around the world. he will make his way to a correctional facility to meet with inmates and staff. the avenue is open. but those periodic road closures will be in effect tomorrow. we'll have more details on that tomorrow. >> thank you. months ago city hall told us this would be an event that would require comfortable walking shoes. that proved to be true for people were on the ben franklin bridge. >> several thousand pilgrims made their way across the bridge by foot. it was a two mile trek, but a

small price to pay for a chance to see pope francis. dozens of pilgrims from new jersey sang as they made their spiritual journey across the bridge to see pope francis. >> it's exciting. just once in a lifetime i assume. last time was 36 years ago, i wasn't even alive. we are just here for the whole event of it. >> people from all across the country and world made their way here to camdon dubbed the gateway to the pope. these students arrived from jackson, michigan. >> we love jesus! >> looking forward to the energy and excitement that will be around. >> the stream of people walking the bridge was small but steady. >> thank you. >> law enforcement checked bags at the base of the bridge. the lines were short.

all of this. action news reporter eva pilgrim is at the big board with the social media story. >> an incredible night. the world meeting of families showing this picture of the pontiff speaking to the crowd, saying protect our families, help us believe all is worth the struggle for the good of the family. at times he was fun y quite the comedian. he had the nuns laughing. it was clear the importance he places on family, thanking the crowd for being a witness that it is worth being a family. and a few lucky people got more than just to see the pontiff. nicole posted on facebook, my son, matthew, was kissed by pope francis today. mamma got a picture. no doubted this will be a story that will be shared for life. one of the things we keep hearing over and over again from the pilgrims visiting our city is how kind everyone has been.

[ voice breaking ] castle. it's empty.

he's not here. he's not in the car! you sure he's not in the car? even with a fire that hot, there'd still be a body. he's got to be nearby. you really think he -- he's here. he has to be. we have to start a search. we could use more men. sergeant! i'm detective beckett, nypd. the man that was in that car is one of our own. we need to scrub every inch of this area. i'll get my men on it. you have search-and-rescue dogs? i'll call them in. okay. i need to help them. esposito: you're no use to anyone dressed like that. we'll get started here. you go change. come on. let's get you into some other clothes. okay, i'll be right back. all right. i'm gonna search up near the road. maybe castle managed to bail out before the car crashed. all right, we'll start on the car, see if we can tell what happened or where he went. all right. taggert: airbag went off. it only activates when someone's in that seat, so your man was definitely at the wheel. yeah, but if he walked away, where is he, and why isn't he picking up? maybe his phone's damaged or he's disoriented. i've seen it before. but if he left this vehicle,

there's gonna be tracks or a blood trail. [ cellphone rings, beeps ] hello. ryan: hey, javi. walk to the back of castle's car. what for? just do it, okay? check the passenger rear side. tell me what you see. looks like it took a hit on the right side, busted a taillight. that's 'cause castle got bumped by another car and run off the road. i got debris up here. all right, call local csu. maybe those pieces can help us i.d. that car. detective, i think i got something. tracks. going from the car up to the road. water washed part of the trail, but it looks like three people. three people? that can't be right. see the two troughs in the dirt? made by heels from a pair of shoes. so he was run off the road then dragged from the car. castle got grabbed. what? i had taggert set up roadblocks to stop and search every vehicle. we figured that the car that ran castle into the ditch may be the same car he's in now. okay, we get a description? not yet, but csu thinks

the side-marker glass up ahead came from a gm. local p.d. is canvassing to see if anyone saw any vehicles leaving the area. what about castle's cellphone? his provider says it's shut off. contacted the fbi to see if it could be turned on remotely. it's a long shot, but you never know. what else? kate... everything that can be done is being done. espo, don't tell me that. they took him. i need to do something. then tell us about that phone call you got. was he nervous? did he indicate in any way he was being followed? no, he was just... [ cellphone chimes ] ...normal. he was normal. hey, sergeant taggert may have a witness. guy runs a fruit stand up the road. yeah, i definitely saw a mercedes go by around the time you're talking -- bronze-colored. esposito: that's castle's car. what about any cars after that? uh, let's see. there was a volkswagen bug, a ferrari, an suv. no one's gonna run him off the road with a bug or a ferrari. talk to me about that suv. it was an escalade -- black with tinted windows and chrome wheels. how is it you happen to remember it so clearly? because i saw it twice. he passed heading north. then he blew by again maybe 10 minutes later.

they were headed south off of long island with castle. i'll put out an apb on the escalade. i'm gonna call state police, have them set up checkpoints at every road leading off of long island. getting castle off the island may not be the plan. the feds just called. they were able to remotely activate castle's phone for a few seconds. did they get a location? yeah, he's still on the island. according to his gps, as of 10 minutes ago, he was in medford. how far is medford from here? not far the way i'm gonna drive. [ tires screech ] it says castle's gps puts him at a hundred feet into this junkyard. state police are 10 minutes out. they want you to wait for backup. not a chance in hell. it's right over there. 85 feet and closing. which way? other side of this car carrier, i think. 60 feet now. beckett: there. black escalade. yeah. that's ground zero for castle's gps. so he's in there.
