People have seen drugs, crime, and violence, real problem for denvers top tourist destination. Colleen ferrara joins us. Today they will announce a plan to make it safer down there. Reporter we have been hearing about that 240step plan, and today, its taken step further, introducing this private Security Firm to make this feel safer. The 16th street mall has restaurants, people walking out here, street shows, all sorts of things to keep people entertained but on the spectrum, you have unsavory or notsofamilyfriendly activities. It was so shocking it happened out here. A man walk on 16th street mall hitting people with a pvc pipe. We later found out much more about him but thats the image a lot of us say, gosh, has it really reached this point . Denver police added more officers but today, well see security taken one step further. The Downtown Denver Partnership committed 1 million in private fundfo including private security for the first time. The guards wont be armed or have the authority to ticket people or arrest people, but they will be extra eyes to help people out, enforce the laws out here, to some extent let people know what theyre doing right or wrong. Robert white told us in the past that loitering and panhandling arent crimes so theres little officers can do to stop that, stop people asking for money. Its when those situations come like people touching other people or profanity taken out of hand, intimidating language, thats when they can do something. Will private security guards make people safer . Thats for you to decide. Well have to wait and see, corey. Hopefully it makes some difference there. We sure hope so, colleen. Thank you.

Great britain catching right up with 50 and russia has 38 and france just cracked the top 5 42. Recent involvementses with the police led to a requests for a review. The mayor of Commerce City made the requests for the review, following a series of questionable events following police which city leaders fear could undermine the Publics Trust in the Police Department. In may, kevin lord pleaded guilty to stage his own shooting. He previously told investigators he was shot by a man during a traffic stop and pleaded guilty to a felony and misdemeanor. John reinhardt is facing inappropriately during traffic stops. This july, the mayor, city manager, and special police chief signed a letter requesting a u. S. Justice Department Review of the Police Department in Commerce City, mentioning the department had undergone some changes under its previous chief but city leaders wanted help to continue to reform the department. Today the Justice Department will speak about the investigation requests and the next steps in this. Now, were expecting to hear from the acting u. S. Attorney department of justice. The announcement is set for 10 30 this morning. Well see what happens. T. , thanks. Another surprising move by donald trump. A big switchup to some of his top campaign aides. Well talk about that and well take a closer look at some of the seemingly lastminute changes for his campaign but first, lets check in with becky amelia. Were expecting dry day with afternoon storms. In rio, dry, 70 degrees, 83 humidity. Temperatures today will be warming up into the middle to upper 80s by 11 30 this afternoon. Wind will be calm out of the north, shifting east, 5 to 10 miles per hour. The next couple of days do bring some changes. In fact, once we get into thursday, highs into the upper 70s. Were back in the upper 80s friday and saturday and once we hit sun, new chance of rain shows up in rio with temperature in the upper 60s so a roller coaster ride for those folks as well. That is what were seeing on our driver, so many issues and problem. Well start by taking a look we have a graphic issue so i will tell you whats going on here. These are the basics. The university of colorado a ride train to the plane, big delays. We have a crew heading to 4th and york to learn mo a call in as well. If youre planning a commute to the airport, use an alternate method. There it is. We have severe delay that could extend through noon today. Thats the latest estimate from rtd. On top of this we have a major accident now affecting your drive if youre heading out across 270. The issue there across the c d. O. T. Camera again, were having them in a crash. Theres a tree blocking intersection of 83 so essentially the extension of parker road all the way to the east side of woodmore and monument. The highway closed at 105 so please use some alternate routes. 5 48 right now. Some 18,000 acres, starting overnight as a brushfire, but by sunset, 80,000 people were on notice to possibly evacuate. Dozens of structures, many of them homes, have burned to the ground as firefighters battle high temperatures and high wind fanning the flames. California is expecting another hot day today and at least seven nearby communities are under evacuation orders. Big changes are being made in Donald Trumps campaign ahead of a major foreign Leadership Team today. Conservative media personality bite barths steve bannon will be involved and Kelly Ann Conway is the new campaign manager. His is bringing Chris Christie to a classified briefing with the director of intelligence situation better than when they started. Republican lawmakers will look through note from Hillary Clintons fbi interview about her email situation. She has been cleared of any criminal wrongdoing but republicans still want her prosecuted. It wasnt simply a mistake. This went on for years. Let the public see what the fbi decides to let them see. Clinton was interviewed at fbi headquarters last announced the agency would not recommend prosecution. After months of staying quiet, troy gardner is supporting donald trump now. The senator got into a twitter battle with trump in the past but says its fortunate elect the entire republican ticket. Every seat in the house and 34 seats in the 100member senate are on the ballot. November elections will decide whether the republicans keep control of both chambers. Weather forecast now. Becky joins us with that a big changeup is on the way. A big changeup starting tomorrow. Well have cooler temperatures arriving in denver and right now, partly cloudy skies in denver, a few more clouds over fort collins but a gorgeous sunrise. If you havent checked the view out the window, youll love what you see, 63 degrees in denver with 50s up north through port collins and greeley. Our friends in the plains 50 and 60s with 30 through the mountains. Across the state, dry, a big change from six or seven hours ago where showers and storm were out of the Eastern Plain. We have a break until 11 00 when isolated storms will build into our mountain and become more scattered through the day and after 3 00, 3 00 30, it will climb east of i25 but few and far between with just chances for isolated storms along and east of the interstate. Chances of rain pick up with temperatures start to cool off around here. A few showers are not expected to be severe but could produce some pockets of heavy rain, especially in central and southern mountains. Were anywhere from. 75 inches to an inch of rain falling in a short period of time. Temperatures in the mountains in the 60s and 70s. We climb to 90 in denver, 91 greeley, 94 fort collins, 90s on the Eastern Plain and on the western slope, a hot day. Sunny and hot this afternoon, storms may cool a few of us off. It will end up dropping to 59 degree and tomorrow, 86 the high, chance of storms in the afternoon, better chance on friday with a high of just 80 and then weve got small chances for isolated storms over the weekend as mild temperatures reach the 70s.

Its a south and eastbound major crash, one left lane blocked, squeezing by south and eastbound. Police activity on the Opposing Side of thely in effect so if youre using 270, if thats typical of your route or an alternate to avoid delays regarding train to the plane, just dont plan on it. Alternate. E470 is also a good route if youre going to fed further east so detail on all this and the rest of the drive, which is calm outside these problems, in calm outside these problems, in a fe moms know their kids need love.
