in 2015 mayor de blasio had another commission, and took metal detectors out. >> there is challenging for a mayor, sometimes you have to follow your instinct. i would always cut on the side of safety. so, i would probably if we had data that suggested there was violent i would keep the metal detectors. >> this is bigger than metal detectors, no parent should have to send their kid to school where they don't feel they are safe. this is a reason that i am ad vo cat for school ios -- advocate for school choice. bill: whole discussion with bullying, does that down play the fact that a mid was commitd. >> it is a murder, it is not appropriate if you are bullied or harassed to stab another person, mayor de blasio, does owe report o report responsibile fact that those kids are in care and custody. the city when they are in school. >> board of education is responsible for ensuring safety of kids in school. >> player also in board of education, you know as well as i do, have a sim bioticrelationship. >> there should be law. bill: he did do something, they did something and removed metal detect

now meanwhile, we saw mayor de blasio on the scene. the mayor will turn to his deputy commissioner of intelligence and counterintelligence or counterterrorism and that's john miller. what you cannot see is the nypd now doing everything they can to learn everything they can about that suspect. is he acting alone. why did he do this? what we know so far about this suspect is is that according to eyewitnesss, when he was in that area, he yelled a la akbar before converging into the attack. he's described as a man in his 30s with middle eastern appearance. this description coming from three law enforcement officials there on the ground. that suspect now taken to bellevue hospital where he almost certainly is under heavy guard. they really want to know as much as they can about this suspect out of fear that he could be a part of some sort of a team, if you will, so certainly they are doing everything they can both on the ground and behind the scenes to make sense of what happened here and why this particular suspect chose that area to pull o

[ cheers and applause ] the yankees are now a win away from the world series after they beat the astros last night. game sic is tomorrow in houston. the yankees were down 2-0 games and at least part of this magic is being attributed to a mets fan. are you familiar with the thumb-down guy? this is the mets fan who last month when the yankees played tampa bay at citi field did this after a yanke

mayor de blasio is there at the scene. nbc 10 is also heading up north to new york city. mitch blacher is in sky force 10 above that scene. we'll get you a live report as soon as the pair arrives in new york city. for now, keith jones, nbc 10 news. >> we continue to follow any new developments coming out of new york. in the meantime, we want to get caught up on local weather. >> let's get to glenn "hurricane" schwartz. >> we have the clear skies now. it's kind of cool. it's also kind of breezy. 58 now in philadelphia. dropping through the 50s as we go through the early evening and through the 40s toward the later portion of the evening. now in south jersey, 59 degrees now. but it's going to drop into the 40s by 8:00 and by midnight down into the upper 30s. that is really cold. let's see how we warm up. 56 for a high. a chance of a couple showers north and west. then 71 on thursday. 74 on friday. then we cool down over the weekend. a chance of showers on sunday. monday into tuesday, but that's a lot cooler than what we have seen. then it really gets cold toward the end of

. >> i will go to gio benitiz on the scene, we're waiting for the mayor of new york city, bill de blasio and the mayor. what's happening there now? >> reporter: i want you to see how busy this area is. we are seeing student after student in this area, because this area is actually filled with schools. you mentioned the high school that is right there in that area where this happened, this is independent square here. clearly, a lot of students are in this area, a lot of people in this area. we are just under the world trade center, we can see it here. that's this type of area you have a lot of business people. that happened as schools were letting out and made it so dangerous, especially these students. that business area is always filled with bikers and pedestrians, george. >> at 3:00, when the schools were being let out, we were just told ps 89, and children still dressed in halloween costumes finally being let out. >> reporter: we're seeing student after student in this area. that's why i think we will have a lot of witnesses that shot this video, all in this area and the police has th

we know that mayor de blasio has been alerted. you can understand officials leeriness of labelling it at this early time. we also point out that oftentimes what looks like terror could be a mad lunatic. you can remember that a speeding car plowed into times square and people. it was just a guy that just snapped. again, it doesn't matter. if a loved one that you know was hit and killed in an attack like this, the source is not as important but the fact that you lost a loved one. they're not interested at this point in determining the source of this as much as whether there could be other players at hand. pat brosnan join us on the phone. they're rightly being careful to call this anything but an incident. with the fbi involved, it upped the ante here, hasn't it? >> it's certainly not too early for me to call this a terrorist act given the six factors that are confirmed as far as we know, given the known facts. first of all, it's a deliberate act. he turned that vehicle. he made a hard right-hand turn. i know where he went on housto

the city's mayor bill de blasio followed him saying it was a terror attack and particularly cowardsly one watch we know about the attack so far. around 3:15 this afternoon witnesses say that a home depo rental truck plowed down a bicycle path, for span of four blocks, busy area of west street and chamber street located in the tribeca section lower manhattan. along the west side a highway also located near that not far from city hall or the world trade center. now according to eyewitnesses cents, once this driver crashed into another vehicle, he proceeded to exit the truck , and fire what sounded like shots while holding what appeared to be two weapons. but according to new york city police department, this suspect was holding imitation firearms, the gunfire came from police who shot the suspect in the leg. now, he is in police custody, has been taken to a hospital in new york, police will not say which hospital, and are not releasing the suspect's name at this time.l right,lso just learning law enforcement officials say the man who drove the truck on that new york city bike path killi

bill de blasio interrupted in tuesday night's mayoral debate. the candidates fought about cripple and the buffedget. mali tackies accusing the administration mismanagement. de blasio out toed the a affordable housing and reminded the crowd that de blasio is a red sox fan and he eventually had the microphone shut juf and did not stop him from shout over this crowd. polls show a comfortable lead. that is a look at headlines we're chasing today. bill: coming up, dan zarrow has all the weather. is it going to stay hot? is it cold? i don't i think the weather fors what it is doing. >> bill, the roller coaster of autumn conditions. cool ta dais ahead. warm days head. raindrops as well. will break it down, coming up. bill: welcome back to "chasing news "is am billed gre. we have a lot more show four. your weather is coming up up. it is it hot is? it cold? is feels like fall is back. all in a little bit. but first, i want to tell you about a story in lakewood. the school district that has pailed to the state to help them close a budget gap. well, guess w

mayor de blasio?you read the headlines in "the new york post" today, it is said that during testimony with the unrelated corruption trial, one of the people that testified it's a donor of bill de blasio and said he bought the mayor for $189,000 in that he has the mayor whenever he wanted his attention. whenever he needed assistance and he got special treatment out of city hall. this is not the first time we're hearing about something like this. we see here in new york city property is being leased off to ddevelopers who are building luxury condos and those developers either bundled tens of thousands of dollars for the mayor or they are lobbyists and have also seen projects such as restriction listed from a health care facility in lower east side of manhattan. >> tucker: none of that is surprising to people familiar with new york but it is upsetting nonetheless. i've worked on and off in new york for many years. therend are thousands and thousands of people living on the street in new york. more people

mayor de blasio said he will get to the bottom of exactly what happened here, and officials are askingll americans, all new yorkers to keep those families of those people who lost their lives in their thoughts and prayers tonight. the suspect, we're learning a little more information about him. 29 years old. he at the hospital in police custody right now. that suspect according to witnesses earlier this afternoon around3:00, drove his truck into cyclists, runners, add walkers on a bike path this afternoon. that death toll has increased press conference. they are asking other new yorkers out this to be vigilant today. at this point, they don't believe there are other threats, but because it's halloween, they're asking people, if you see something, say something. both the mayor and the governor of new york state, they will come out of this stronger than ever. we will continue to track these developments, and keep you on top of it. >> of course, that vigilance not just for people there in new york city. but an event like brings all of us an uneasy feeling of just how fragile life is, but

politicians at the parade in the bronx yesterday blasted mayor de blasio's effort to look at whether this famous statue of explorer at columbus circle should be removed. despite the criticism, de blasio is scheduled to march in today's columbus day parade in manhattan. >>> 4:07. the 4-1 eagles are more than a passing fancy after they crushed the cardinals by 27 points at the linc. quarterback carson wentz launched four touchdown throws, three in the opening quarter. the birds' defense bent but didn't break. limiting the offense on a single touchdown on the day. we'll have reaction from wentz and the birds at 4:30. >>> the eagles -- birds channeling their inner foils with this little -- phillies with this little home plate video that went viral. birds' receiver capping off the 72-yard touchdown in the backward plunge into the end zone. aguilar turned around on the 1 yard line before doing a trust fall for the score. there he goes. >>> and if that looks familiar, that's because another eagle did the same thing back in 2010. remember this? former bird sean jackson pulling off the same m

advertising and then most recently we were kept out of the first general election debate with mayor de blasio and two of his opponents one of which is in the exact same situation that i am in he is names bodo and he. was not part of the campaign finance matching program either and they they invited him to participate so again it's unprecedented in terms of not allowing someone into the debate arbitrarily and without any sort of reason or rationale but then on top of that they violated their own rules their own arbitrary rule. and so a lot of this is going to start coming to the surface in the next couple of weeks yeah and i watched a few minutes of that debate it was you you almost seem lucky to have not been there it was fun madness now let's go to the closet thank you very much you know sometimes. if i had my head in the potato field like today this is the year i say i will do what we got. promised everything. i write down would be rid of the don't we should these guys want a big box guys given the money there's a lot. going on but this town elections here for one more second you know we sa

mayor bill de blasio said they were increasing security in the area, and he urged people to be vigilant based on the information we have at this moment, this was an act of terror, and a particularly cowardly act of terror, aimed at innocent civilians, aimed at people going about their lives, who had no idea what was about to hit them. >> woodruff: for the latest, we turn to special correspondent marcia biggs in manhattan. marcia, what do we know about what happened? >> judy, this is still a developing investigation. it's only a couple hours old. what we know is that at 3:05 p.m., a 9-year-old male entered the west side esplanade, which is a bike path here on the west side of manhattan along the river, he entered in a home depot rented pickup truck at high speeds at houston street mowing down pedestrians and driving 15 blocks before colliding with a school bus. then he exited the vehicle brandishing what appeared to be two weapon, a pellet gun and a paint ball gun before nypd officers shot him in the abdomen. he was then taken to the hospital. there are eight confirmed dead and over a do

tracee: new york city mayor de blasio is trying new pilot program that's going to stop curb-side deliveriesween certain hours to have day, morning rush and evening rush to ease up the traffic congestion. so it's not just the food deliveries but the delivery trucks that park and also double-park on top of that causing a major back-up. the program will start in january, some areas of midtown manhattan, queens and brooklyn. jillian: wow. tracee: we will see if it works. rob: a lot of them do whatever they want and take the ticket. tracee: exactly. rob: president trump plan to go release the classified jfk assassination files. will they answer any lingering questions or fuel even more conspiracy theories, our next guest chaired the committee that investigated this case. jillian: first, let's check in with brian kilmeade to see what's coming up in "fox & friends". hey, brian. >> we will do that within the three hours, we promise. also coming up on the show, we will have newt gringrich talking about the president's first nine months in office as well as chance of passing a tax plan. also we are g

[applause] >> governor cuomo, mayor de blasio, my buddy, chuck and kristin can join us tonight because they are literally busy voting right now. a budget vote, should have had it 9 minutes ago. knowing the senate, it hasn't happened yet. i want to thank patricia heaton. we do go back a long way because you know what? patricia heaton is a hollywood republican. [applause] >> a hollywood republican. that is an oxymoron. [laughter] >> which clearly was the word rex tillerson was searching for. [laughter] >> i just want to say you all look great. everyone looks great tonight. we feel right at home because this is exactly what our dinner parties in wisconsin look like. this is really our favorite time of year. we just love it. october. we've got deer season, the leaves are changing, the beaches are empty or as chris christie calls them, "perfect." [laughter] >> i want to promise you, though. i heard a few stories about how the dinner went last year. i want to put your minds at ease. you can relax about my remarks. i know last year that donald trump offended some people. i know his comments,

mayor bill de blasio speaking moments ago. courtney reagan is in the newsroom with the latest >> that's right, melissa, we have a confirmed eight people that have died from this attack. 15 are injured, according to wnbc wnbc also reporting the suspect is being treated at bellevue hospital at the press conference officials have confirmed he is a 29-year-old male wnbc says he has a florida i.d here is what bill de blasio, the new york city mayor, had to say. >> it's a very painful day in our city a horrible tragedy on the west side let me be clear that based on the information we have at this moment, this was an act of terror and a particularly cowardly act of terror. >> new york governor andrew cuomo also speaking at the press conference, saying this does appear to be an isolated incident >> the new terrorist tactic, which they've called for publicly, are these lone wolves who commit an act of terror. this is all very preliminary it's only been a couple of hours. but at this point, there's no evidence to suggest a wider plot, o

i don't mean to jump to that conclusion, mayor de blasio is crewing this as a terrorist attack and given the method of what we know so far of what the man is alleged to have said, it seems likely that will prove to be the case. so we hear in the senate have been paying athe engs to the increased risk we will see of lone wolf attacks around the world. as isis loses more territory and we'll have to wait to see as facts develop whether that's in fact what happened in manhattan. >> as you pointed out, mayor depl depalaceia said this was an act of terror and an action quote intended to break our spirit. i know you have been well briefed. is there hard intelligence with the isis setbacks in syria and iraq, whether in mosul, raqqa their caliphate now clearly falling apart that these kind of terrorist attacks may actually europe or the united nations?n - >> well, there's a number of people in africa, in particular, wolf, they expect to see increased isis affiliated activity. many of the foreign fighters who went to the caliphate as they called it in syria and iraq are returning to their countrie
