A woman in stable condition right now after she was shot in the arm and leg. This victim is 26 years old, and she claims this all happened over a tenth and west norris streets, about five hours ago. But the thing is, police have been unable to locate the scene, and the victim is not cooperating. Another example not to drink a. M. Drive.

He is getting thousand of dollars in highend jewelry. Lets get right out to steve keeley at the kohls in lower makefield with the damage and what we know. Steve . Reporter a lot of the employees showing up now. And they got the surprise when they showed up here yesterday. Because the front door was smashed, they were probably the first to notice it. And how much did he get at kohls . How about 100,000 is the estimate. Lets go to the video, see on surveillance one i go one guy, one big sledgehammer, one big tool sack. He knew where he was going when he got through the chief tells us because this guy must have shopped in there and figured out that they even though kohls is not known for its high price highend stuff, i went on line, some of the watches, some of the necklaces, 600 bucks. You can grab a bunch of those and easily add up to 100 grand real quick. A lot of the shoppers, Shawnette Wilson talked to last night, pretty surprised. Here is the sledge hammer. Oh,. 1 00 in the morning. Really . They said he got up to like 100,000 in stuff. Oh, my word. Isnt that crazy . Wow. Thats craze. I so you hadnt heard about it, though . No, no, i had not, no, i hadnt. We have no clue what he came or went in. There is no surveillance apparently outside. So police didnt put out description of any car or van or truck or whatever he was in. And it looks like they didnt put one out because they dont have one, and kohls probably never thought they needed Surveillance System out here in the parking lot or outside on the sidewalk before, dont be surprised that not going to replace the glass front doors, but maybe start seeing surveillance cameras getting installed here real soon, too. So this doesnt happen again. You know, lets hope some of the surrounding businesses, is that a bank across the street in hopefully they captured something. Reporter yep, they got a bank, they got a gas station, but the problem is you got to look at a whole lot of surveillance to see. This guy probably new what was doing, new where he was going, and thought you can avoid all of those buildings that bank is way across the parking lot here. So he probably got away without going too close to those places. And almost taylor made from a flash and grab. It is hidden from the road. You can get to the road either way without ever going by a Surveillance System probably. Yes, he planned this one out. Steve, thanks. So, from that Shopping Center now a mall.

So as we mentioned earlier, there is my twitter handle. It is also facebook, sue serio fox 29. You can let us know whats happening in your neighborhood. It is changeable, changeable, changeable, as we see this mess of precipitation, now, entering our area, from west to east, hasnt quite reached philadelphia yet. But it looks like maybe the leading edge is in delaware county, moving up to central montgomery, bucks county, and allentown, where you see the pink it, indicate the possibility of freezing rain. There is some heavy rain headed into New Castle County around odessa, delaware. We zoom in little bit closer. Looks like it is snow along this part of route one, east nottingham, london grove, sometimes call this mushroom country, southern Chester County. Up in pottstown, indications of possible freezing rain, and it is already start today snow in mount pocono. And other part of the higher elevations, thats where we expect accumulations, and the resort, happy about that. The possibility of two4 inches, at the ski resorts, 25 degrees in mount pocono, little bit above freezing in allentown, reading, 35 here in philadelphia. At least at the surface. But it is below freezing in pottstown. So, this is the time of day when the travel could get tricky. We see the rainsnow line. The freezing rain inbetween move ever northward throughout the rest of the morning. 39 degrees by 8 00. And then were in the 40s by 9 00 a. M. And the changeover is complete to all rain, but still little tricky to the north of us, perhaps, around the lehigh valley, for travel. And then just messy rainy day, at least until about maybe 3 00, 4 00 in the afternoon, thats when it should all be out of here. So the ride home, probably a lot better than the ride to work. But we could still see stray shower or two, maybe around 6 00, 7 00. So we put all of that together in the seven day forecast, after todays mess is out of here. Weaver cold temperatures on friday. It will be blustery day, high winds, not even feeling like 39. Feeling a lot colder than that. So, the winds die down on new years eve. We get to high of 43 degrees. A chilly midnight. At least it is dry. And it should be dry, and 49 degrees, for new years day on sunday. Thats a look at your Weather Authority forecast. Lets see whats happening on those soon to be messy roadways. We had an accident hours ago, in maple shade, thats caused a lot of problems on route 73 southbound, between route 90 and high street. That part of the road is closed. Southbound side with the police and the Fire Department on the scene. Weve cleared the downed wires, and were in the process of clearing out that tractortrailer. The alternates, to stay out of this area, lenola road, and fork landing road, as the clean up continues. Now, we go to another accident. In douglas township, route 100 northbound, jackson road, partially blocking the roadway there. And well have much more throughout the morning, thomas, karen . Thank you there, sue.
