Pedal was famous for Walking Around town on his hind legs like a bear in the cartoon. He hasnt been seen since the bow and arrow hunt ended this weekend. Witnesses say pedals fish and wildlife workers said a dead bear that looked like pedals was brought into a weigh in station. Reporter pedals was a frequent visitor to the neighborhood for years but quickly gained a devoted following well beyond new jersey.

Offered a favor if it would reduce the classification of a clinton email. It just stinks to no end. Also tot, warns of election fraud, experts say the real threat could be russian hackers. Imagine on election night, reports come out that cause people to think results of the election are questionable. Holly williams on the front lines of the biggest battle yet with isis. These kurdish fighters are trying to move in that direction and retake the main road to mosul. But isis has lit fires in villages there and there. Air strikes. And a High School Team take a page from a kaepernick playbook. Its ins ugsalized racism thats what i am taking a knee for. Hillary clintons private e mail server has come back to bite her again. The fbi released more notes from its now closed criminal secretary of state. Those notes reveal a Senior State Department official tried to strike a deal with the bureau over one of the emails. The note suggests there would be something in that deal for the fbi nancy cordes is covering the email about the benghazi attacks, the very first of clintons emails to be retroactively classified as secret last year. In direct contradiction of her early claims. There is no classified materials. According to fbi interviews, clintons undersecretary, Patrick Kennedy began pushing Security Officials to see their way clear to marking the email unclassified. One fbi contact told kennedy he would look into the email matter if kennedy would provide authority concerning the fbis request to increase its personnel in iraq. The fbi official then called a colleague who told agents he felt pressured to change the classified email to unclassified as part of a quid pro quo. It just stinks to no end. Utah republican jason chaffitz. When you have an fbi agent say he was in a quid pro quo discussion with the undersecretary of management at the state department that should scare everybody. The fbi says in the end no favors changed hands and the classification level stayed as is. State Department Spokesman mark toner. Quid pro quo exchange in that manner really frankly is insulting. The fbi documents include an interview with a Diplomatic Security agent at the state department. Who said clinton frequently and blatantly disregarded security protocols. When traveling overseas for instance, clinton often refused to ride in the armored limousine with the local u. S. Ambassador. Opting instead to ride with longtime aide huma abedin, a practice that frequently resulted in cmplaints by ambassadors who were insulted and embarrassed by this breach of protocol. Nancy, tell us what has the Clinton Campaign had to say about all this today . Scott, they say the is well known that state Department Officials thought that clintons emails were being overclassified and fought the Intelligence Community on that matter all last year. Campaign aide say they dont about this conversation involving undersecretary kennedy, but they point out that even the fbi appears to have concluded that there was no quid pro quo. Nancy cordes, thank you. 22 days before the election. Our new cbs news poll gives clinton a ninepoint lead. 82 of voters told us this campaign is more negative than those of the past. Thats the largest number to say that in a quarter century. The latest example, trumps tweet today. Fraud. Major investigate is on his campaign. The election is rigged. Its rigged like you have never seen before. It is a searing indictment of american democracy, an allegation donald trump has toyed with throughout the campaign. This morning on twitter, trump wrote, of course, there is large scale voter fraud happening on and before election day. Trump has warned the democratic voters could cast multiple tim grants are being processed for voting purposes. He is provided no evidence for either charge. But a study by the Brennan Center for justice found the average american was more likely struck by lightning than cast a fraudulent ballot. Another study found 31 incidents of voter fraud out of 1 billion votes cast from 2000 to 2014. We put the question to Ohio Republican secretary of state john husted responsible for ensuring a Fair Election in the battleground state. There is a difference between an individual random act and a systemic problem. And we do not have any systemic problems i am not aware of any systemic problem in any state in the country. Idea of building a National Campaign where you are suggesting that the elections process itself tis rigged is an irresponsible comment. In previous close president ial elections, the losing candidates have graciously conceded for the good scott, one president ial historian told us, trump gives every impression of doing the opposite in this, the hiss tore can said could be the most disturbing aspect of his entire campaign. Major garrett in our washington newsroom. Thank you. Well perhaps a more serious threat against the electoral system is russian hacking. Jeff pegues has been looking into this. Reporter two years ago, top russian general, Valery Gerasimov called for a new kind in a military journal, gerasimov wrote of using propaganda tactics to turn a state into a victim of foreign intervention causing it to sink into a web of chaos. Adam myers, head of intelligence for cybersecurity firm, crowdstrike says, gerasimovs doctrine behind the recent hacks of election data bases and imagine on election nights if reports come out that cause people to think the results of the election are questionable. Myers and u. S. Government officials fear thats what the russians will try to do. All they need to do is cause us to question the results that come back from one district and one state that could trigger enough react, that we might call for say complete recount. Helen purcell, the elections stop the hackers is to keep the Voting Machines offline. Even on our touch screen machines, you have a tape of everything that happens on that machine. That can be verified later. U. S. Officials accuse the russians of using similar tactics in other countries including ukraine during its 2014 president ial election. Scott, while the russians deny the allegations, were told that president obama is considering jeff pegues, jeff, thank you. Cbs overnight news will be these men are kurdish fighters, who have joined with the iraqi army and local militiamen to push isis out of mosul. A combined force thought to be more than 20,000 strong. These kurdish fighters are trying to move in that direction and retake the main road to mosul. But isis has lit fires in villages there and there. To try to shield themselves from air strikes. It didnt work. Isis today and the extremists lost more territory and more fighters. But the battle so far is only on the outskirts of mosul, a handful of farming villages, long emptied of civilians, now an apocalyptic landscape. Isis fought back with suicide bombers. One car laden with explosives drove close to where we were standing before it was blown up by an antitank missile. Isis doesnt fight as well it used to. And their morale is down, colonel genergadi told us. Thats why theyre using more suicide bombers. But a desperate enemy is a dangerous one. And the battle for mosul is just beginning. The u. S. Military says there are fewer than 5,000 isis fighters left in mosul. Theyre preventing a million civilians from leaving. Using them as human shields. Meanwhile, scott, the roughly 6,000 american troops here are acting in what the u. S. Government insists is an and the fall of mosul not expected for weeks. Holly williams reporting from iraq. Holly, thank you. Today, russia said it will suspend bombing of syrian city of aleppo for eight hours thursday. As a humanitarian gesture. The city of 2 million is a ruin, five years after rebels roads rose against the syrian president. Today the European Union said russias bombardment may constitute a war crime. In aleppo today, Elizabeth Palmer found what each side is willing to do to keep on killing. Reporter as day begins in aleppo, so does the battle. Syrian soldiers and opposition fighters shoot at each other across a front line that runs right through the city center. Soldiers offered to show us where rebels have manufactured one of their signature weapons. So this is an ordinary its designed so that explosives would fit in the top part. Perhaps shrapnel in the bottom. Then reassembled with these make shift fins, which would help to guide it, like a very primitive kind of rocket. The rockets were launched and aimed sort of through an ordinary piece of steel pipe. The syrian army has home made arms too. Like the by now infamo a imprecise barrel bombs. As the for precision weapons, there arent enough well trained soldiers to use them accurately. And so, the battle for aleppo has largely stalled. Here on the citys southern edge it has taken the army three months to advance 800 yards to those white buildings. And everywhere on this i have no food, no bread, i have nothing. Not even a safe place to wait out this grinding war. The fight for control of aleppo, scott, is less a pitched battle and more a ruthless siege which is slowly choking the life out of half of that great city. Siege of more than five years now. Elizabeth palmer reporting for us inside syria. Coming up next, a Republican Party office is fire bombed. Later, a High School Football you know your heart loves megared omega3s.
