Pthe latest crash were following pis causing some concerns but preally, delays are not terrible pat this point. Lan for five minutes or so of pdelays northbound along 50th pstreet. Pthis is the sky fox shot near pthe selmon expressway where pwere seeing a crash thats pblocking maybe one, possibly two artially right lanes so just premember your move over law in pthat area. Pyoure probably going to be pslowing down anyways because it pis a bit of a congested area panyways. Pso five minutes is your travel ptime through that stretch. Pwell keep you posted how this pclears out. Prussell well, beyonce may not phave many fans of the tampa olice department. Pso far, no officers, none were pconcert at Raymond James pstadium. Pher super bowl performance is pone reason why. Pshayla reaves is at raymond pjames this morning with a story. Pgood morning. Preporter good morning. Pthe concert is a couple of pmonths away but so far, its the psuper bowl performance thats phad a lot of people talking, pincluding Police Officers right phere in tampa. Pin fact, tickets are already on psale for the concert scheduled pfor Raymond James stadium but no pofficers have signed up for psecurity. Pafter the super bowl performance pof the singers just released psong, her dancers dressed as pblack panthers for the halftime erformance. Pmusic video set in new orleans paddressd Police Brutality and pincludes a wall with a quote, pstop shooting us. Pit makes reference to her hair pand her nose she likes and in pthe video, she appears on top of pa sinking police cruiser. Pofficers in tampa say is too olitical and unfair. Pand Tampa Police Spokesperson phad this to say. P like any other event here in ptampa, regardless of how pcontroversial it might be or who pthe artist might be or who the olitician might be, we have a presponsibility to do that. Preporter the concert is pscheduled for april 29 here at pRaymond James stadium. Pthe cheapest tickets weve seen pfor the event are 70. Psome Available Online as well pfor 80. Pin the meantime, right now olice are not clarifying pwhether or not officers would be pforced to work the concert. Pif they do not get anyone to psign up, in fact, tampa police pare telling us its early. Ptheyre not to go wanting to pwait to see what happens when pthe event gets closer. Pin addition to that, a pspokesperson is adding that if pthis event, no one signs up for pthat evening could be reassigned pto Raymond James stadium and pother accommodations would be pmade to make sure the city is psafe during that time. Pback to you. Prussell well talk later. Pthank you. Plaura its become part of ptravelling these days. Pyou go to the airport and then pyou have to stand in line as you pwait to be screened by t. S. A. Pofficer. Pbut it seems like some lines at pcertain airports move more pquickly than others. Pthe t. S. A. Says only 2 of ptravellers had to wait more than p20 minutes to get through pairport security. Pthose numbers can be skewed by pthe fact that nearly half of all ptravellers went through the pexpedited lanes last year. Pthe tsa precheck and other rivileges make the numbers on aper lower than they are in preality. Pso where are those short wait ptimes . Pwhere is the shortest . Pguess what . Pright here in tampa pinternational. Pt. S. A. Says on average, it only ptakes a little more than 11 pminutes to pass through security pand be on your way to the gate. Pdetroit and portland round out pthe top five and no surprise as pfar as the longest wait time. Pnew yorks j. F. K. Was dead last pwith an average wait time of pnearly 17 minutes. Pl. A. X. Also had time at or above p16 minutes. Hiladelphia, seattle and pchicagos Ohare Airport pfinished out the final five. Pofficials say that the wait ptimes may be longer there pbecause of heightened security pmeasures due to the recent pterror attacks both here and pabroad. Prussell theres a sexting roblem at a bay area middle pschool. Pkids are just 11 to 14 years old pand now the principal of lake lacid middle is planning a arent assembly to discuss this roblem.

Pat first everyone was in shock puntil the man said he had a gun pand put his hand in his waist pband. Pa customer called his bluff and phere it is. Phere is the moment. Pdavid west fought the robber poff, shoved them into a display, phim in the face. Peventually namath was knocked pout cold. P normally i would say dont pget involved, especially when ptheres a weapon involved but papparently the citizen did not psee a weapon, didnt feel he had pa weapon. Pbest part is a citizen actually pgot involved and helped out in pthe crime without endangering phimself or others. Plaura west held the robbery pthere until police got on scene. Pbefore naim namath was taken to pjail, he was taken to the phospital with minor injuries. Pthese are pictures of someone probbing a ruskin food mart. Pit happened yesterday.

Prussell its almost 7 09 and pit looks like there may be a new pnational frontrunner in the prepublican race for president pand a big endorsement for marco prubio days before the south pcarolina primary. Phere is doug. Preporter some of these polls pmay be outliars but it does show pthe state of flux out on the pcampaign trail right now and pits not terribly good news for pthe frontrunners, donald trump pand Hillary Clinton. Pted cruz on a stage in south pcarolina delivering the news he phas been waiting for. P for the first time in many pmonths, theres a new national pside. Preporter and the new nbc news pwall street journal poll shows pthat cruz is up two points over ptrump nationally. Pat the same time, trump has a pwide lead in South Carolina, palthough that may not tell the pwhole story. Phave been doing private polling, pboth associated with the pcampaigns and with some of the psuper pacs, the belief is that ptrumps lead is not as pcommanding as the public polls psuggest. P if we can win in south pcarolina, were going to go pwe could very well run the ptable. Preporter maybe but when the pg. O. P. Field narrows, it could pspell trouble for trump. Pin hypothetical oneonone pmatchups, cruz beats trump by 16 oints and so does marco rubio pby the same margin. Prubio got more good news pyesterday winning the pendorsement of South Carolina pgovernor haley and then there pare the democrats with another pnew poll showing that pnationally, Hillary Clinton and pbernie sanders are statistically ptied. Pand thats a real concern for pthe clinton team. Pjust like donald trump, though, pclintons numbers are very pstrong in South Carolina. Pif you believe the recent polls phandedly.

Pits just horrible. Pits tragic. Pits affecting so many people. Pobviously their family and pfriends. Pits just overall sad. Pi dont know if people are on ptheir cell phones or just not pdriving carefully. Pmaybe they just need to leave pearly. Pwhatever the case may be, we pjust need to be careful before pwe hit the road. Pthats whats happening. Pif we look at numbers from last pyear to the year before that, we phave seen an increase across the pboard here in the state of pflorida, an increase of 18 . P38,000 people were killed on pu. S. Roadways. P4. 4 Million People were pseriously hurt. Pthe state with the largest pincrease, number one comes poregon, georgia number two and pthen florida. Psunshine state saw an 18 jump plast year. Pweve had our fair share of paccidents here in the bay area. Pless than a week ago, there was pa fatal wrong way crash that pkilled two people on i275.

Pjust a couple of days ago, i was ptalking to my photojournalist. Pi was going five miles over the pspeed limit and i had five to psix people cut me off just pwithin a 30minute span. Pwe have to drive carefully. Pwe have to make the right pdecisions. Pto talk more about that, lets pgo over to jennifer epstein. Pjennifer a lot of those fatal paccidents nationwide were the presult of drunk drivers and ptheres an effort in tallahassee plaws in florida. Psharon is here with madd to talk pabout that. P good morning. Pjennifer we were talking pearlier this morning and alcides psegui just reiterated the fact pthis week has been a deadly week pfor drivers on the road and ptheres just one incident in articular that has a lot of our pviewers just questioning these pd. U. I. Laws. Pallison huffman hit and killed a ptow truck driver on the howard pfrankland bridge. Pofficials dont know for sure pshe was intoxicated that night pbut she did have three previous pd. U. I. s so the question is, how pare people like here still pallowed to drive based on their plicense . P well, even if she had her plicense suspended, it had been pfive years since she received pher most recent d. U. Ism uchlt d. U. I. , as i punderstand it. Pby then she would have had her plicense back anyway. Pwe would like to see interlock pdevices to be ordered by the pjudges for all convicted d. U. I. Poffenders, even first time pdwiss, they will learn different phabits. Pthey will learn safe driving phabits they do not currently phave. Pjennifer for people who dont pknow what the interlock ignition pdevice is, that is for that pis go that goes on to your car, pon your steering wheel. Pyou have to blow into it to pstart the car, correct . P correct. Pand periodically throughout your pdrive, your commute, wherever pyoure going, you have to blow pinto it a couple of more times pjust to make sure that youre pthe one that is actually driving pthe car and is sober. Pjennifer so madd is pushing pfor all offenders to have this pignition lock System Installed pin their car. Pwhats the deal with the current plaws in florida as far as pgetting the enter lock devices pin your car . P the current law states that pany repeat d. U. I. Offender must phave an ignition interlock pdevice installed in their car pand also a first time offender pwith a blood alcohol content phas a child as a passenger in ptheir car because that becomes pchild endangerment. Pjennifer weve been talking pabout a couple of instances with pthat involving a d. U. I. Driver pbut you work with madd and you psee that all too often on a pdaily basis and its even pimpacted your life as well. P yes, yes, it has. Pour oldest son was killed riding pwith an impaired driver 7 1 2 pyears ago. Pjennifer theres so many pfamilies that are impacted by pthe same similar situation that pyou had. P685 lives lost in drunk driving p685 lives lost in drunk driving paccidents just in florida in p2014 alone. Pis there something we can all do pto bring this number down . P yeah. Pi take personal responsibility pfor you and your friends. Pso many people say i dont drive pdrunk. Pwe always have a designated pdriver or a lot of people take a pride share such as uber but if pyou see your friends getting pready to drive after drinking, pits your responsibility to stop pthem and this is a community roblem. Pgroup of people that have this pissue. Pso number one, take presponsibility for your friends pand family that may be driving pimpaired. Pdo something about it. Pthis is life saving. Palso we would like everybody to pcontact their local prepresentatives and senators and pask them to push this law pthrough, the interlock ignition pdevice law. Pjennifer thank you for being pwith us. Pyoure right. Pa change has to be made. Plaura thank you, jen.

Prussell and also, one of the pthings that youve given me pguidelines here, some things to plook out for. Pnever, ever sign electronically por any other way a blank return. P correct.

Ptheyre supposed to go over with pyou about your return and pexplain everything to you and pthen if you are satisfied with pit, you sign.
