Asali Family Sent Back to Syria Returns to US: After a grueling 16-hour trip that took them by land from Damascus to Beirut and then onto a flight bound for Abu Dhabi, the Asali family finally reunited with relatives at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York Monday morning. “I’m so excited to see my brother again,” said 17-year-old Matthew Asali after landing at JFK. “It was unhuman (sic) what happened to us.” The tearful reunion came after more than a week of legal wrangling between immigration officials following President Donald Trump’s executive order that restricted travel into the U.S. from majority-Muslim countries and immigration lawyers who said the Asalis were denied due process after being turned away from Philadelphia last week. Some family members hadn't seen each other in three years and wept as they embraced following the ordeal. It took about 13 years for the Asalis to obtain visas, passports and security clearances. The legal documentation was in place by December 2016, and the only thing left to do was board a flight bound for Pennsylvania. Extended family already living in a predominately Christian-Syrian part of Allentown anxiously awaited the Asali’s arrival. They purchased a home for the newcomers and prepared to welcome their relatives into a new life. But the Asalis in Syria decided to postpone their move until January because they wanted to spend the holidays with loved ones abroad. Unbeknownst to them, they booked a flight that would land just hours after Trump issued a travel ban on travelers from Syria and six other majority-Muslim countries.

As the woman got out of the cab, an unidentified man began to attack her, according to investigators. When Emanual got out of his taxi to help the woman the suspect ran into the cab and drove off, police said. "Before jumping in the cab, you know, he just took off his clothes," Emanual said.

Feds, States Square Off in Court Over Trump Travel Ban: State and federal lawyers will argue before a panel of federal appellate court judges Tuesday in the pitched fight over President Donald Trump's travel and refugee ban that could reach the Supreme Court. The legal dispute involves two divergent views of the role of the executive branch and the court system. The federal government maintains the president alone has the power to decide who can enter or stay in the United States, while states suing Trump say his executive order is unconstitutional. Seattle U.S. District Judge James Robart, who on Friday temporarily blocked Trump's order, has said a judge's job is to ensure that an action taken by the government "comports with our country's laws.” The Justice Department filed a new defense of Trump's ban on travelers from seven predominantly Muslim nations as a federal appeals court weighs whether to restore the administration's executive order. The lawyers said Monday the travel ban was a "lawful exercise" of the president's authority to protect national security and said Robart's order that put the policy on hold should be overruled.

Senate in Round-the-Clock Session to Confirm Trump Cabinet: Democrats announced plans Monday to hold the Senate floor around the clock to protest Republicans' push to confirm President Donald Trump's Cabinet picks. Democrats' effort got under way as the Senate headed toward a showdown vote Tuesday on Education Secretary nominee Betsy DeVos, a wealthy GOP donor who has advocated for alternatives to public education. DeVos' nomination has drawn particularly fierce opposition from teachers' unions and others. Two GOP senators have announced plans to oppose her, which could result in a 50-50 Senate vote Tuesday. That would leave Vice President Mike Pence in the role of tie-breaker, something that has never happened with a Cabinet nominee in the Senate's history, according to the Senate historian.

A vote at noon on Tuesday for Betsy Devos becoming Education Secretery could be decided by a tie-breaker.

Rutgers University is proposing renaming parts of its campus after former slaves in acknowledgement of the university's historic ties to slavery.

The Rutgers Board of Governors will vote on the plan Wednesday, according to the chancellor's office.

It includes renaming a walkway Will's Walkway for a slave who helped lay the foundation; renaming a 14-story apartment complex the Sojourner Truth Apartments for the abolitionist who was originally owned by the father of Rutgers' first president; and renaming a library on the Piscataway campus to the James Dickson Carr Library for the school's first African American graduate. 

A group of Rutgers professors and students researched the university's 250-year history and its ties with slavery, according to NJ.com. The findings were published in a book last fall called "Scarlet and Black." 

Other U.S. universities have been similarly been researching and publicly accounting for their historical ties to slavery. Last month, Columbia University released a report saying it was founded partly with slave traders' money, counted slaveholders among its early leaders and let at least one student take a slave with him to college. 

A baby girl abandoned inside a New Jersey YMCA may be the daughter of a teenage father who was pulled off a hotel ledge by Newark police Sunday morning, authorities say. 

Officers were called to the Newark YMCA on Broad Street Monday evening for a report of a five-month-old girl abandoned there, police said. She had been left alone for about an hour and wasn't hurt. 

Police located the mother, and Child Protection and Permanency was notified.

Police are looking for the child's father, 19-year-old Kelly Coran, who's believed to be the same man pulled off a ledge outside the Robert Treat Hotel Sunday morning.

In that case, officers responding to a call of a trespasser there found the man on the ledge, calmly confronted him and then grabbed him, pulling him to safety through the window, police said.  

Coran is wanted on charges of child endangerment and $2,000 outstanding theft of services warrant.

If you think you are paying more for your car insurance in New Jersey, you are not wrong.

New Jersey drivers have paid the highest car insurance premiums in the nation five years in a row, according to a new report by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners.

In 2014, which was the most recent year studied, drivers in the Garden State paid an average of $1,263 per car.

In comparison, Iowa came in with the lowest insurance premiums with an average of $585.71 per car.

The national average for insurance premiums in 2014 was $866.31 per car, according to report.

The report notes that New Jersey is considered an urban area and the results are not directly comparable to states with large rural areas.

“Automobile premiums tend to be higher in urban areas. Therefore, those states with a higher percentage of population in urban areas will tend to have higher average premiums,” according to the report.

Philadelphia homicide detectives searched for clues after a woman was found dead under a sleeping bag in a room above a Kensington tattoo parlor Tuesday.

Medics pronounced the woman – believed to be in her 30s – dead just before 9 a.m. on the third floor above Danny's Philly Inc tattoo shop along the 3200 block of Kensington Avenue near Allegheny Avenue, said police.

No word yet on what might have caused the woman’s death, which investigators called suspicious. The medical examiner's office responded to the scene along with homicide detectives.

We are in for a wild, weather ride over the next three days. We'll go from rain Tuesday to near record warmth Wednesday to accumulating snow for Thursday morning!

Let's start with Tuesday, you'll need your umbrella, but not the winter coat. Rain -- and only rain -- moved through in the morning and early afternoon. By mid-afternoon, though, we'll be drying out and warming up. Tuesday will likely fall short of the record-high temperature of 67 degrees for this date, set in 2008.

However, Wednesday, record warmth is much more likely as temperatures take off ahead of an approaching cold front. Record readings are most likely in Philadelphia, Trenton and Wilmington. For Philadelphia, it's a record that's been on the books since 1925.

The warm-up won't last long Wednesday, because a strong cold front will sweep through around midday, shifting the winds to the northwest and driving much colder air in for Thursday and Friday.

Then as the temperatures drop late Wednesday night and into Thursday morning, a quick-moving system will arrive. At first, ground temperatures will be above freezing, but above ground, it will be cold enough for snow. So for a period early Thursday, snow will fall and melt on the warmer ground. Eventually, the ground will get cold enough for snow to accumulate, first on the grass, then colder surfaces like cars and sidewalks and then roads.

Computer forecast models agree that we will likely see snow for the morning commute Thursday, but still disagree about the track and timing of this snow-making system. Both will impact how much snow falls.

A Lehigh County teacher faced charges Tuesday that she had a sexual relationship with a teenage student.

Heather Montero, 36, surrendered Tuesday morning on unlawful contact with minor and corruption of a minor charges, Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin said. Online court records didn’t immediately list an attorney for the Allentown woman.

The investigation into Montero began in November 2015 when Lehigh County Children and Youth received a Childline tip, Martin said.

State police investigated allegations that Montero and her student, who is born in 1997, had a sexual relationship that began while the girl was a minor.

Police interviewed the girl and convince her to give over her cellphone and Twitter login info. Forensic analysis revealed a series of messages from June 3, 2015 to Oct. 6, 2015 that "provided evidence of an intimate sexual relationship," a news released from the DA’s office said.

Montero removed all references to the girl from her social media account the day after the girl turned over her phone, the DA said.

Further investigation uncovered similarly suggestive notes and letters, the DA said.

The East Penn School District suspended Montero with pay. A district community liaison had no comment Tuesday.

A grand jury reviewed the case and recommended the charges against Montero after hearing testimony, Martin said.

Philadelphia Police are searching for two men after security cameras caught them punching another man at a charity basketball game and knocking him unconscious.

On January 28 at 4 p.m., the 25-year-old victim was at a charity basketball game at the International Christian High School at 413 East Tabor Road. The video shows the victim being punched in the face while sitting on a bench during the game by an unknown man.

Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company, a thriving taproom in Bucks County, announced it is opening a new location in the next county over.

The Croydon-based brewery is "more than just in talks" to take over the shut-down Guild Hall Brewing Company in downtown Jenkintown, Montgomery County.

The settlement date for the spot, located at 208 York Road next to the Hiway Theater, is set for Feb.17, they said on their website. 

Neshaminy Creek previously announced they were expanding to Fishtown, but the deal fell short.

"Our [Fishtown] landlord terminated our lease due to their dissatisfaction in our ability to receive the necessary zoning and use permits from the City of Philadelphia in an agreeable time frame," they said.

A mother reunited with the state troopers who helped her deliver her newborn baby. NBC10 was at the Port Norris State Police Barracks Tuesday as the troopers held Ka'Niah Williams.

"If it wasn't for them, I don't even know if she would be here," Ka'Niah's mother Deshyamma Dalton said. "I'm thankful. I'm really thankful."

On January 19, Deshyamma Dalton needed help. In labor with her baby girl, Dalton desperately pulled int the parking lot of the Port Norris State Police Barracks, a decision that may have saved her child.

Four state troopers rushed to her aid and helped deliver her daughter in the back of her van. The baby arrived just seconds after Dalton pulled into the parking lot.

On Tuesday Dalton returned to the same place Ka’Niah’s life began to give thanks to the troopers who came to the rescue. During the reunion, everyone was thankful the scene was much calmer.

“It was nice to see them again in a lot less stressful situation,” said State Trooper Andrew Abdill.

“We’re happy to have a successful ending and this was just icing on the cake," said Trooper Matthew Hanlin.

Dalton’s mother Katrina Govan says she is grateful for the officers’ quick response.

“So many people talk about the different things that the state troopers go through," Govan said. "All the negative. But a lot of people need to know the positive.”

The good deeds didn’t stop there- Ka’Niah went home with gifts from the troopers as Valentine’s Day is just one week away. But like any good day, Dalton says they’ll be back next week to give the troopers a gift of their own.

Officials are warning Lower Merion residents after a coyote was spotted in a backyard.

The animal was spotted last Friday running through the backyard of a home towards N. Wynnewood Avenue in the Narberth Borough near the border of Lower Merion Township.

A coyote is a medium-sized predator that thrives in suburban, urban and rural areas. They typically eat whatever food is naturally available including small animals, birds, insects, fruits, garbage, pet food, birdseed and compost.

Pet owners are advised to keep their cats indoors and their dogs under control during the day and in secured kennels or indoors at night.

Coyotes are normally shy and elusive. If you spot the animal however, avoid it and call the Lower Merion Police Department at 610-649-1000 or 911.

A Philadelphia neighborhood community center is getting some well-deserved national attention after an appearance on NBC Nightly News.

Kevin Upshur is the owner of the Strawberry Mansion Learning Center, a safe haven that provides programs designed to promote growth and development to local students. The nonprofit was founded by Upshur in 2008, when he transformed his mother’s local bar into an education and resource center.

In August of 2016, Upshur created a GoFundMe page to raise money for the center’s kitchen and bathroom renovation project. This month, NBC News Anchor Lester Holt stopped by the center to highlight Upshur’s work in the community in a special piece that premiered Tuesday evening on NBC Nightly News. Almost overnight, GoFundMe donations began pouring in from people across the country.

Everything from the computers to food for the center is donated by sponsors, including businesses like Reading Terminal Market and the Philadelphia Housing Authority, so the donations made are essential to keeping the center up and running.

Only 18 hours after the story premiered on Nightly News, the GoFundMe raised over $30,000 for the renovation, totaling $32,876 since the fundraiser opened.

Upshur and his fellow organizers say they are thrilled with the response and are overwhelmed by the generosity. 

"It's so exciting that I've been running around all day, I haven't had much rest because the phones have been ringing," said Upshur who is excited to get started on the updates. 

Upshur and the team at the Learning Center are hoping to hit $100,000 for the full renovation. Anyone interested in donating can do so at their GoFundMe page.
