[ music ] authorities are considering filing charges against donald trump for violence at his rally in fayetteville. Gilbert baez joins us live with details. This would be a new twist in an unusual election season. Thats absolutely right. The attorney for the Sheriffs Office and says sheriff butler is considering filing charges after reviewing that video tape of the rally in fayetteville. John mcgraw has been charged in the incident but during review they noticed trump making comments during the removal of several protestors at the crown. I caught up with the sheriff before a local interview on the radio. Trump could be held liable for the comments that insighted the crowd to take the violent action against a protestor. Thats in part the premises of it. We are concerned about a number of things in that speech. We are concerned about activity associated with that speech. That does not mean that we have decided to charge anyone. In addition mitchell says part of the on going internal investigation is looking to see against any deputy who witnessed jones being elbowed by mcgraw. At this point the sheriff Attorney Says that no action will probably be taken against donald trump before the conclusion of tomorrows election. Stillvery interesting development, gilbert. Thank you. Today donald trump stopped in hickory. He was a little late but hundreds turned out to see and hear him. Colin broader was there to sure up a win ahead of the next super tuesday. The donald trump rally here delayed by two hours. His plane was diverted to charlotte due to heavy fog in this area. Once trump arrived he was met by passionate supporters and protestors. Hundreds started lining up well seats. The monroe auditorium holds less than 1500 people so hundreds were turned away. The crowds grew tense debating inside donald trump didnt stand at a podium. Instead he did a q and a with chris christie. He talked trade and brought down the house with his signature promise. I employ thousands of hispanics and they are great and we have a 58 billion deficit and we are going to build a wall. [applause] they love the wall. We love the wall.

More warnings are expected into the evening. Radar view we showed you this at the top of the newscast. Reports of nickel sized hail. Still heavy rainfall not moving Doppler Radar indicated maybe an inch to an inch and a half more so watching for northern Harnett County along 401 the rain coming down pretty heavily and likely to do that over at least the next half hour while the cell dissipates. So our weather headline some severe. Primary threat will be winds. Well tell you why in just a moment. Youll notice a difference.

Tomorrow dry weather for the beginning of our election day. And tomorrow afternoon looks outstanding. Still warm mid 70s to about 80 considerably compared to today. So by 8 00 looking out for showers and thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy, 70 by that point and overnight in the 50s. Showers and storms moving out at 3 00 a. M. So part of the night may be noisy. Tomorrow night we await for dry weather and tomorrow afternoon temperatures will be in the 70s to perhaps lower 80s in fayetteville. Theres your seven day forecast. 76 tomorrow.

As emergency crews worked to clear eastbound lanes drivers headed west starting to slow down leading to several other collisions over a portion of i 40 west. Needed to clear all those clash cars away. Multiple services responded including a driver from the body shop where some of the cars involved are being repaired. Seen anything quite like what happened on 40 last night.

Ive been driving the wrecker here for nine years and its the biggest one ive seen.

Around 6 30 yesterday evening midway through the televised show there was a twitter alert caution spoiler alert. Somebody tweeted out the entirely full bracket so some coaches didnt know where their teams were ranked and called and said hey did you know that you were blah blah blah and they were like well we didnt know that so the coaches said we didnt believe that tweet that came out but it ended up being correct and cbs told espn comment on the leaked bracket but the ncaa is investigating the situation.

We take matters seriously and are looking into it but its a closely guarded secret. Yeah. And its fun. They had the live shots. Getting the reaction.

But women are a little more selective but 30 of womens first messages were successful on the first date to only 12 of mens first messages or in a date. So women doubled up on the success rate for the first dates in men and women ended updating someone they rate guess on websites. Women dated more attractive men women. I dont know what that means but those are the numbers. So women if you are looking for a date go to the Online Dating sites and start asking men out. Take the initiative. Will that make you more apt to go out and do it . I think it would yeah if i was in sha position. Yeah. Well see. When was the last time you saw richard simmons.

Storms and heavy rain making rivers rise there are those who say we cannot defeat a corrupt political system and fix a rigged economy. But i believe we need to lift our vision above the obstacles in place and look to the american horizon. To a nation where every child can not only dream of going to college, but attend one. Where a good job is not a wish, but a reality. Where women receive equal pay and a living wage is paid to all. An america where after a lifetime of labor, there is time for rest and grandchildren. A nation that defends our people and our values, but no longer carries so much of that burden alone. I know we can create that america if we listen to our conscience and our hearts and not to the pundits and the naysayers. Im Bernie Sanders.

However, springlike thunderstorms are already popping up. Some parts of the viewing area warnings this afternoon. The one thing we have going for us is that that is typically the time that things begin to cool down so the instability might not be as great as if the system was coming through right now. There are a few showers that are showing up in Johnston County and also northern wake county and a few just between rocky mount and wilson but nothing terribly exciting at the moment. Here is the broader view. You can see a band of showers and a few thunderstorms moving through the mountains. Right now, no warnings in effect along this line. There were earlier. If we actually time lapse that, you can see over last hours that we did have some showers popping up in the northern mountains and one isolate warning in central North Carolina.
