show. i'm karen hepp. >> and i'm lauren johnson. >> we have so much to get to in one hour on this sunday. a cruise ship arrives back in texas after being denied to dock at two caribbean ports. >> we've had developments for a suspected cop killer in pennsylvania. >> first we went to get you up to speed at our live whether i'm dressed leak a bear because i heard that it's going to be freezing cold so i'm ready for it. >> i think we can agree it does feel like fall this morning. we had a mild week, temperatures yesterday hitting into the 70s. starting off in the 40s. around 50s in philadelphia. we see a decent amount of sunshine today. aids walk philly right around the art museum starts at 9:00 a.m. one of our viewers knew there was going to be a chilly change

and luckily it isn't bringing any wet weather with it. at the beginning of the walk, starting in about an hour, if you're just about to head rout side. 50, 9:00 a.m., 53 when it comes to a conclusion at 11:00 a.m. it will turn breezy so it will feel cooler than that. clear skies, cooler air settling in. late tonight, early tomorrow morning our attention turns to the potential for frost or freeze across the area. the exception of philadelphia and delaware counties. i think we're not going to see forecast in the city because of urban heating there. you get out to the suburbs frost advisory including south jersey. cumberland, the same goes forth the jai-alai valley.

a hard freeze is possible. 38 mount pocono. 51 in philadelphia. the winds aren't too terrible yet out of the northwest around 10 to 15 miles. we'll see some higher gusts later on tonight. into the afternoon, it will feel even chillier. a lot of sunshine but it's cool. late tonight we fall to 39 in the city but again we'll see low and mid 30s all across the area. >> in this morning, a murder investigation under way in west philadelphia. >> this all happened at 38th and gerard just before 1 this morning. they don't have any information on suspects. also new this morning, a shooting on logan neighborhood. around 3:30 police say a man was shot in the face. he's in the hospital in critical condition. the shooting remains under investigation. five people including some children are in the hospital for

possible smoke inhalation this morning after flames broke out in a row home. the cause of that fire is under investigation. >> we also have a developing story out of texas this morning. the cruise ship that's carrying a dallas health care worker is being monitored for signs of ebola finally returned to the port. this is the carnival magic docking in gallon -- galveston just about 6:00 this morning. and our cover story this morning we have a strong warning for partners out there. you may want to make sure you know exactly what your kids are up is to when they are on the computer. a court ruling final parents could be held liable for what their kids are posting on facebook. in a tweet, aj wrote new court

ruling says that you parents can be liable for what your kids post online? i don't know how i feel about that. what was the court's reasoning for that? we're joaned by attorney heather hanson. what's the reason? >> it's an unusual situation because the original court said the parents could not be held liable, then the appellate court, in georgia, they said here the situation was so bad, the parents were so negligent that they could in fact be held liable because they had a whole year's notice that their children had these horrible postings up and didn't do anything to make them take them down. it sort of extends to other situations that are less bad. >> sometimes we know technology gets ahead of the law and the law has to evolve. is that what's kind of happening here? >> you hit the nail on the head. our law especially here in pennsylvania, delaware and new jersey, when you're talking

about parents' liabilities for their kids, it's focused on vandalism or driving in the car and it's not focused on computers and facebook and all of these things that we see coming to the forefront for parents so the law has a lot of catching up to do. >> speaking of the tweet we saw, should parents be scared out of their minds? >> here in pennsylvania and in delaware, new jersey, it seems a little less likely that a parent would be held liable to a great extent. there's limits on the money that can be awarded in that type of thing. the concern is this will evolve into a criminal thing. so parents could be held criminally responsible for cyber bullying and that type of thing. that is not the case now. as you law changes in other parts of the country, it's something we need to be aware of. >> some free fox 29 weekend advice from heather. what's your final word for parents out there? >> you've got to do your best to

control what your children are doing online, but you have to also understand that you can't be perfect and right now the law isn't holding you to a standard of perfection. >> thank you for taking times out for us. >> thank you, lauren. >> and of course if you have anything else you want to ask heather, you can tweet us. >> there is a big gathering in southern city happening this morning. this is a 28th annual aids walk philadelphia. it brings 10,000 people together. they're raising money for aids awareness. good morning sabina. >> reporter: you can see tons of people out here to support the 28th year for the walk and run. but it could not be more relevant today. hiv infection rates are up here in the city of philadelphia. the rate of new infection are five times the national average. new infections are up among

young people from 13 to 24. that's of course very scary. the purpose of the walk and run is to improve awareness, 10,000 people are here to run, many of them coming out here in memory of loved ones who spoke of aids. he lost his grandfather in the early '90s to the disease. he thinks more needs to be done. >> of course i think about him all the time, especially this morning. you know, i just realized that as far as we've come in destigmatizing the disease and fighting for a cure, the three miles i can do today will help us get there. >> really powerful story. now we are joined this morning by pat who is on the board. >> good morning. >> reporter: thank you for joining us. what a great event. now we talked about that really scary statistic, one in four

people who are newly infected are between the ages of 13 and 24. that is so young. >> yes, it's so young. and it's a hard time in life. people tend to feel invulnerable at that time. they're also resistant to information information that they need the most right now how to keep themselves safe, how to know their hiv infection status. the other statistics, one in six of infected people don't know they have hiv. if you put those two together, we have a problem. >> there's so many young people out here today. there has to be one way to reach out to these young folks. >> this is true. this is fantastic. in the early days of this walk, and i've done every one since 1987. so in the early days of the walk, it was older people, people who were already infected or knew somebody who was infected. after about eight or nine years, suddenly the school system

kicked in and we had kids here. and we've had kids here every year since. this is the most amazing opportunity to reach kids. >> and the best way to raise awareness. thank you for joining us. the 28th annual aids walk and run right here in philly. it lasts until 11 this morning. come out and join the fun. >> this is the part of the morning where we stroll back to the producer pods. we go backwards over here and talk to aaron and nicole. >> come on back. join us. >> it's a bye week and we've had people tweet us about what they're doing. >> because the eagles aren't playing today. so what are people going to do? >> well, i've got pj here. i love his tweet. hopefully watching the stinky giants beat the stinkier cowboys. >> kevin here says i'll have to cheer for the new york giants to beat the could you girls since the eagles aren't playing.
