Developing now another brutal murder by the terror group isis, a new video shows that the group executed the jordanian pilot they were holding hostage, this was particularly gruesome and it comes as soon as there was some hope for a prisoner exchange. This video showing the jordanian pilot being burned alive while chained to a cage. You hoped his life would be spare, when jordan was negotiating with the jordanian government, now there say promise of revenge by the jordanian officials. They said it shows beyond a doubt how barbaric this group is. The 26yearold fell into the hands of the militants when he crashed his jet into syria the first pilot from the u. S. Led coalition to be captured. This just days after japanese journalist was beheaded by the same militants. Now they are working on authenticating the video. Its one more example of the barbaric of this organization. And well double our efforts for a Global Coalition to make sure that they are degraded and ultimately defeated. As a matter of fact the jordanian military saying that that pilots blood will not be wasted and they are promising revenge atsd the same level. Well continue to follow that as the family of that jordanian pilot is in mourning. Alicia thank you. He phoned in a threat to the Montgomery County courthouse, they are taking the call seriously, vernon odom is live in norristown with a clue that could help them track down the suspects. Its a busy day at the courthouse in norristown, last thursday, major threats and disruption and nerves on edge and now authorities have a Surveillance Video that may help them catch the instigator. This man approaching the old fashion pay phone is in deep trouble. They are looking for him in connection with two phoned in bomb threats. They stopped short of calling him the prime suspect. He is a person of interest and we believe he has information on what happened. We hope that someone sees the still photograph and recognizes him and gives us information. The first came at 8 32 in the morning to the Norristown Police and the next call came to county Public Safety officials from a mobile phone and he said there were bombs and explosives in the courthouse, after a two hour evacuation no explosives were discovered. A senseless act such as this and a dangerous act in my opinion does nothing but disrupt justice and delays decisions that need be made. Well err on the side of caution and we cant take risks. The world we live in today is one where people do these types of things. The d. A. Released this video of still shots hoping that viewers recognize him and call police or the d. A. With his identity and whereabouts. We consider this to be a very serious offense.

And well be developing a storm off the coast and stays off the coast and we only see the real bitter air funnel in behind that on thursday afternoon. Tonight the clouds thicken up as the warm air arrives and late flurry north near allentown and temperatures are in the low 20s with upper teens and your four day at 4 00, a rapid rebound tomorrow and clouds and sun and 46 degrees we look for a touch of morning sun and a coating to an inch in general.
