bryce isn't happy about it. >> people are saying metra is the reason people left.etra stayed open. it was a day game. it didn't shut down at 3:30 this afternoon. today the nationals were hoping to put pressure on the mets. you had to feel good, but instead the bull pen imploded like we have seen many times before. and mad max didn't have his best stuff today. scherzer hasn't won a game since july 30th. he gave up two home runs early. here in the fourth, he takes it out of the park. jason werth is back on it over the wall. that's a solo shot. scherzers has given up 11 home runs in the last six starts. the mets take a 3-0 lead. moving on to the bottom of the fourth now, finally the fans have a reason to get on their feet. bases loaded for wilson ramoz who comes through with a monster shot. second career grand slam for the buffalo. the mets take a 4-3 lead. seventh inning, tied 5-5. reuben tejada comes in for the go-ahead run. the mets score three runs in the seventh and go on to win this one 8-5. they now lead the division by five games. afterwards, bryce harper alre

through the area because there is a metra line that runs just adjacent to the shooting scene. are told that the fox lake village hall has been closed. local businesses have been warned that suspects are in the area believed to be on foot and should be considered armed and dangerous. so a very tense situation up there in the area for -- for a shooting which unfolded what are we now, 11:41 chicago time. so about 2 1/2 hours ago. >> phil, is this community very rural or is this considered a bedroom community of chicago? how would you describe it? >> reporter: absolutely, it is a bedroom communive of chicago because it runs along the metra track. fox lake is part of what's called the chain of lakes which is north west of chicago just up along the wisconsin border in lake county, illinois. a lot of people commute from fox lake into chicago. >> and joining us also is craig melvin in the newsroom at 30 rock. craig, we've seen this now, i think the press conference is about to start so let's go there. >> he described the subjects as two male whites and one male black. a short time the

you've got the metra trains that -- you see the metra track right there. the proximity to how close it is to the shooting scene. southbound trains, that's the commuter railroad for chicago. those trains have been hut down southbound into chicago. they don't want to take any chances. >> sure. can you tell me anything about the other law enforcement who may be involved in this search? craig melvin reported the u.s. marshals being involved in this. how about the fbi, especially know that this crossed borders into wisconsin, too? are you hearing anything about fbi involvement? >> of course. they would be involved, absolutely. the lead agency on this is the lake county sheriff. this is lake county, illinois. and i think if your map is still up there you see fox lake. lake county extends from about just west of fox lake all of the way to lake michigan over there to the east on the right. it's very large county. the county seat there is waukegan, probably the best known community there to the viewers. so they are the lead agency on this. most of the units you see

we have got the possibility of one or two showers into northern as i am metra, not going to help the situation. that is tuesday's picture, maybe creeping a little further southeast as we go on through wednesday. they will be few and far between and it will stay largely dry. here it will stay absolutely bone dry. all of the energy is north of the equator, where things are looking quite active at the moment. we have got a tropical storm making its way towards vietnam. it's a weak one. winds of around 65 kilometers per hour with gusts around 85 kilometers per hour. it will be flooding here if only we have this over indonesia, 215 millimeters of rain in over 24 hours and those heavy showers are now starting to make their way further west wards, much of vietnam, central vietnam, cambodia seeing very heavy rain. it will drift further westward as we go through thursday with brighter skies coming behind. >> lots more to come here on the al jazeera news hour, including the war in syria has killed thousands, hundreds of thousands of people and forced millions to flee the country. we look at wh

>> well, i know that this search search has interrupted service on the metra train line so i think it'scern, the number of officers in that area. officers have turned people away from the train station. at this point, officers are telling us the suspects fled on foot so they -- other than that, it's not really clear if they got a ride or hotted on a train or anything like that. >> now, you said that officials you've spoken with are not giving a perimeter. we just spoke with the spokesman, the detective who is representing the lake county sheriff's department as well. we asked him how big is the search area and that was not something he would reveal, probably, for very good reason, i would imagine. are officials trying to keep their cards close to the vest to make sure their movements aren't known by suspects? >> yeah. i would think that is what they're doing. their presence is very obvious but how far their presence extends i think they just don't want people to know. >> are you getting any sense talking to officials there about any of the circumstances surrounding the killing of this p

for example, metra in chicago with over 70 million riders annually have stated there is a strong possibility that it will cease service altogether, a concern that is echoed by long island railroad, metro north in new york and connecticut. and so i want to get a couple of numbers on the record. based on your outreach to railroads, approximately how many have informed the fra that they nay reduce or suspend service? >> senator, i think you the most recent numbers because they've been responding to your most recent letter. but to put hit the way, i have not had a recent conversation with a railroad that has informed me that they do intend to operate on january 1. so i believe you have the most recent numbers, but we are well into the 20s at this point. >> have you -- or has d.o.t. i should say evaluated the extent to which there will be an increase in congestion or potentially lives lost from commuters taking alternative options to -- or alternative modes of transportation i should say? >> we have not done a specific study that would look at the effects on january 1 or on january 2. but i have

. >> and joey, there is a commuter rail, metra that runs through the area.t they could have used that to he is cape. what i've learned as a prosecutor, and never more so as a defense attorney, the police are very skilled in the area of apprehension and for two reasons, number one, a resource issue. and number two, interagency cooperation. when you look at the resources brought to bear, you're talking about aerial support, they're scouring the area with, they talk about police officers, the manpower they have in searching the area, you're talking about dogs, you're talking about technology, then you're talking about what you mentioned, the cooperation even of the federal authorities. so they'll get interagency cooperation between law enforcement. in area as well as the areas that exceed that and of course, the community is on notice about that. so certainly, they could have escaped using the rail, not using the rail. wherever they are, i think i'm pretty confident the police department is well equipped to capture them and bring them to justice. >> some people

schools were lock down, metra service halted. residents told to stay indoors. police, fbi, u.s. marshals and state police. armed to the teeth, officers were deployed with armored vehicles. for hours police have been following every lead. calls pouring in reporting anything out of the ordinary. for those who live in this tranquil oasis, this moment surreal. >> i'm honestly shaking like that. i'm just very -- i'm in shock. >> reporter: this morning there are more questions than answers. who led to the shooting, who are these men. police have offered no further descriptions of the suspects. eric hong, abc news, fox lake, illinois. >>> another scandal for pro wrestling. i an former star jimmy snuka has been charged in the death of his girlfriend more than 30 years ago. he was arrested yesterday morning in allentown, pennsylvania. prosecutors say he beat the young woman in a hotel, then left her to die. he was allowed to post bail partly because he's recovering from stomach cancer surgery. >>> the cameraman killed in that on-air shooting has been laid to rest. funer
