The Route 11 trolley and the school bus collided at 57th Street and Woodland Avenue before 8 a.m., Philadelphia fire radio said.

Ten people on the trolley — including the operator — and two Easter Seals employees, SEPTA spokeswoman Heather Redfern told NBC10. No children were on board the bus.

No word yet on a cause for the crash, which left the Easter Seals bus and trolley next to each other.

SEPTA shuttle bused passengers along Woodland Avenue between 48th and 58th streets due to the crash. Trolleys diverted onto Chester Avenue, the transit agency said.

The Easter Seals bus was en route to pick up children at their homes and then take those children to the agencies facility along Conshocken Road in Philadelphia, Carl Webster, executive director and CEO of the southeastern Pennsylvania chapter, told NBC10.

Both Easter Seals employees were hospitalized for observation and expected to be OK, Webster said.

Expect delays in the area as police investigate.

A threatening note found in a school restroom left Montgomery County high school students and staff out in the cold Wednesday morning, leading to an early dismissal.

Souderton Area Senior High School dismissed students at 9:45 a.m. due to “low temperatures” experienced by students after being evacuated out of the school.

"As a precaution, students and staff were evacuated to the stadium while the administration and police conducted a search of the building," Souderton said on its website.

Buses took students from the school and parents were encouraged to go to the Halteman side of the building to pick up students.

No word yet on the nature of the note.

Ex-Police Chief Charged, Had 'Intense Racial Animus': Feds

0

The former police chief of a Burlington County, New Jersey, township was accused of civil rights and hate crime charges Wednesday for an incident that involved a handcuffed young black man. 

Frank Nucera Jr., who is white, retired suddenly as chief of Bordentown Township in January while under FBI investigation. In announcing the charges, U.S. Attorney Williams Fitzpatrick alleged that Nucera "harbored an intense racial animus toward African Americans."

"The defendant dishonored the profession," Fitzpatrick said.

In the federal complaint, Nucera, 60, allegedly attacked the 18-year-old from behind and slammed his head into a doorjamb while the suspect was being escorted by two officers from a hotel.

Fitzpatrick said the investigation into Nucera came about because of subordinates in the Bordentown police department.

"This is a crime identified by the Bordentown Township police department by officers in that police department," he said.

The FBI's special agent in charge for New Jersey, Tim Gallagher, who oversaw the investigation, said the allegations are not representative of the vast majority of police officers in the Garden State.

But, he added, no one gets to enforce the law as they choose.

"Badges and guns do not come with authority to violate the constitution," Gallagher said.

The criminal complaint alleges that Nucera used numerous racial slurs to describe black suspects and ordered the racially discriminatory use of police dogs to intimidate them.

Audio recordings allegedly capture some of the racist comments by Nucera.

Nucera was scheduled to make an initial appearance in federal court on one count of hate crime assault and one count of deprivation of civil rights under the color of law.

Each count comes with a sentence of up to 10 years in prison.

Suspect Said He Committed NYC Truck Attack for ISIS: Sources

UPDATE: Attack Suspect Gleeful Over Deadly Manhattan Rampage, Left 'ISIS Lives Forever' Note in Truck 

The 29-year-old man detained after a flatbed truck zoomed down a popular lower Manhattan bike path, killing at least eight people and injuring nearly a dozen, left a note in the vehicle claiming he committed the attack for ISIS, according to law enforcement sources.

Authorities said the man -- identified by sources as Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, who was an Uber and commercial truck driver living in Paterson, New Jersey -- is thought to be a "lone actor" in the attack in the Hudson River Greenway on Tuesday afternoon. U.S. counterintelligence officials added that no group has taken responsibility for the attack.

Sources said he rented the truck from a Home Depot in Passaic, drove over the George Washington Bridge and sped down the greenway for more than a dozen blocks before deliberately ramming into a school bus for children near Stuyvesant High School and P.S. 89.

Two staff members and two children on the bus were injured, police said.

The Uzbek national, who is a permanent U.S. resident, then shouted "Allahu Ackbar," got out of the rented truck and was seen running through traffic on West Street with a pellet gun and a paintball gun before being shot in the abdomen by a police officer on patrol and taken into custody. He's being treated at Bellevue Hospital.

Sources said that though Saipov lives in Paterson, he had a Florida license with a Tampa address on him when he was arrested. Police and federal agents were seen swarming the neighborhood street where he lived on Tuesday night as well as the Passaic Home Depot where he rented the flatbed truck and left his family minivan.

A family friend described the suspect as calm and hard-working, while President Donald Trump derided him as "sick and deranged."

Residents in the area said that Saipov had a wife and two young children and that they had lived in the home on and off for about three years. Fellow Muslims in the neighborhood said that while he and his wife appeared to be practicing the faith, they only saw him at the local mosque once or twice.

"We are not like him," said Mohammed Ghaith, who goes to the mosque. "Not harmful or anything like that. I don't know what he's been through or what he went through but we should all be like peace."  

Kobiljon Matkarov, a Facebook friend of Saipov's, told NBC News that the two met while they were both living in Florida.

"He was very happy guy," said Matkarov, who is also from Uzbekistan. "He liked the US. He is no terrorist. He's all the time happy, smiling all the time."

Uber said Saipov had passed a background test to drive for the service, and that he had been banned from accessing the app after Tuesday's attack. The company added that it is reviewing Saipov's history with the service and cooperating with the FBI. 

Saipov pleaded guilty to two traffic offenses in Pennsylvania between 2012 and 2015, according to records from the Keystone State. He was also arrested for failing to appear in court after getting another traffic citation in Missouri in 2015; he later paid a fine and served no jail time. It's not clear if he had any other criminal history beyond the traffic offenses.

Anyone with information on Saipov or the attack is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS or the FBI's tips hotline at 1-800-CALL-FBI.

NY, NJ Men Among Victims of NYC Bike Path Attack

A 23-year-old man from New York City and a 32-year-old New Jersey man were among the eight people killed when a truck sped through a Manhattan bike lane for more than a dozen blocks in an apparent ISIS-inspired attack, police say. 

Darren Drake, of New Milford, was riding his bike during a 15-minute break from his program manager job at Moody's Analytics when the truck plowed into crowds of pedestrians and riders on a popular Tribeca bike path Tuesday. Drake, a graduate of Rutgers pursuing a second master's at Stevens Institute of Technology, also served four years on the New Milford Board of Education, holding the vice president chair for two of them. He didn't yet have children of his own, but was hoping to one day. 

"He had everything going for him," Drake's father, Jimmy Drake, told News 4, as he started sobbing. 

The other American victim was identified by police as Nicholas Cleves, of Manhattan. The software engineer and web developer lived on Greenwich Street in the West Village, where stunned neighbors said he was a smart, friendly young man with an adventurous spirit.

"This is an absolutely lovely young man," said a neighbor named Dianne, who declined to give her last name. "The type of person every parent hopes theirs grows up to be." 

Cleves was "smart, funny, kind, engaged," she said.

"He was a Village kid and everyone in the store knew him and loved him," said Dianne. "There have been more tears shared in this store than ever." 

A family friend later Wednesday said that Cleves was a "fine young man."

Online profiles show he went to Elisabeth Irwin High School in New York City and graduated last year from Skidmore College with a degree in computer science. An only child who was living with his mother, he had been working as a software engineer for the Unified Digital Group.

Cleves described himself on his Facebook page as a "nerdy white boy." The most recent photo posted there showed him posing with some friends next to a Darth Vader figure at Star Wars exhibit.

Outlining his aspirations on LinkedIn, Cleves wrote that he was "searching for ways in which technology can be used to make positive impacts on our everyday lives." 

In a statement Wednesday, Skidmore College president Philip Glotzbach said Cleves was a IT assistant, astronomy tutor and son of a Skidmore graduate. 

"At moments such as these, we realize anew how powerless are our words in the face of profound grief, Glotzbach said. "Even so, we reach out to offer our thoughts and prayers, along with the hope that knowing that others are also touched by this loss may provide at least some small measure of comfort."

In New Jersey, Drake had recently undergone weight loss surgery and was riding his bike 25-plus miles a day to stay fit, his father says. An only child, he lived with his parents; his father said he drove him to the Hoboken train station each morning. His parents knew something was wrong when their conscientious son was late for dinner and didn't call.

"Five-fifteen, 5:30, 5:45, 7. My wife said, 'Jimmy, that's it, we need to go to the hospital," Jimmy Drake said. 

"If there was one guy a terrorist was going to kill, it wouldn't be my son," he said. "He wouldn't swat a fly." 

Jimmy said he will give his son's bike to charity, and his own, too, now that his only child is gone. 

"I'll give it to some kid who needs it -- and give him my bike, too, I'm not riding it," he said. 

The New Milford Board of Education said in a statement, "A board member in high esteem, Darren was a good man with a soft touch and huge heart. He is respected for his unwavering commitment to the children of New Milford and their education."

Drake had cheated death before, missing the Hoboken train crash last year by just minutes and staying at the Mandalay Bay Hotel just weeks before the Las Vegas massacre.

His employer Moody's said he was a valued member "and his loss will be deeply felt by all those who worked with him." 

The other six fatalities included five Argentinians celebrating a graduation anniversary and a 31-year-old Belgian national, Anne Laure Decadt. Six of the victims died at the scene; the other two died at hospitals.

"We now and forever will consider them New Yorkers. They shared this tragedy with us and for that we will always remember them as New Yorkers," Mayor de Blasio said Wednesday of the foreigners killed in the attack.

Decadt was a mother of two, including a baby, according to the New York City Belgium Consulate General. She was riding bikes with her mom and two sisters when she was mowed down from behind; she died at New York Presbyterian Hospital. The rest of her family was injured. A second Belgian family of four was also injured in the attack. 

Argentinian nationals Hernán Mendoza, Diego Angelini, Alejandro Pagnucco, Ariel Erlij and Hernán Ferruchi, most of them architects, were having a 30-year reunion after graduating from the Polytechnic School of Rosario. The five dead were among a group of 10 friends marking their graduation with a tour of New York and Boston, where at least one survivor of the group lived. 

They had gone on a bike ride through Central Park on Tuesday before turning south, to lower Manhattan.

"They were pedaling in lines of two, chatting, laughing, enjoying the ride. My husband was the last one in the line, when he felt a speeding car, and then the truck that zoomed by" at high speed, Cecilia Piedrabuena, the wife of survivor Ariel Benvenuto, told an Argentine radio station. "The truck took away his friends, and he saw them all scattered on the ground."

Benvenuto called his wife and said, "Honey, this is very serious. It's a terrorist attack," she recalled. "An hour later, he called me and told me that his friends had died."

Mendoza was an architect and father of three who designed the home of his close friend, Estanislao Beas.

"The news destroyed my wife and I," Beas said. "We had a tight bond. We cared for him so much. It's incredible that this happened to him and that he was there at that time."

The reunion trip was partially financed by Erlij, the chief executive of Ivanar, an Argentine steel products manufacturing company, according to Argentina's La Nacion newspaper.

Another classmate, Martin Ludovico Marro, of Newton, Massachusetts, near Boston, was being treated at a Manhattan hospital.

In Rosario, a minute of silence was observed at the high school, and the light-blue and white Argentina flag was flown at half-staff. The school planned a candlelight vigil Wednesday evening.

"It hurts us to think that these are people who walked the same school halls as we did or that studied in our same classrooms," said Agustin Riccardi, a senior at the school.

Twelve other people were hurt in the truck rampage, an attack authorities have described as the worst terror attack to hit New York City since 9/11. Authorities detailed gruesome injuries to some of those survivors, ranging from bilateral amputation to serious head, neck, back and chest trauma, as well as trauma to their arms and legs. Five of the dozen sent to hospitals were in serious condition Wednesday; four were in critical but stable condition and three went home.

Of the survivors, two victims were students and two were employees on the school bus the suspect smashed into along his route of terror. The German government says a German citizen is among the injured. The Foreign Ministry didn't identify the female German citizen or give any details about the severity of her injuries in a note on its website. A sixth Argentinian who lives in Newtown, Massachusetts, is also among the injured.

Investigators said Wednesday that the suspect, 29-year-old Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, had planned the attack for weeks. He was shot by police as he ran through traffic with pellet and paintball guns but is expected to live.

Arrest Made in Possible Road Rage Murder in Allentown

A man accused of killing another driver in a possible road rage incident and then leading police on a chase through Allentown was arrested Wednesday, according to investigators.

Curtis Thomas, 36, is charged with criminal homicide, certain persons not to possess a weapon, possession with intent to sell a controlled substance and attempting to elude police.

A witness told NBC10 that a man, identified by police as Thomas, was involved in an argument with another driver on the 800 block of Wyoming Street in Allentown shortly before noon Wednesday. The witness claimed the two men were standing near a pickup truck and car that appeared to have been involved in an accident.

"He looked to see if he had damage on his car then he came around and he put his hands up in the air," said the witness, who did not want to be identified. "Then the other man went and got a shotgun. One shot, shot him in the middle of the street."

Thomas grabbed a shotgun from the pickup truck and opened fire, striking the other man, according to the witness. He then fled the scene in his pickup truck, the witness said. The 32-year-old victim, who has not yet been identified, later died from his injuries.

After a witness described the vehicle, police tracked Thomas down to 6th and Walnut streets in Allentown later in the day, according to investigators. As police attempted to pull him over, Thomas allegedly fled the scene before crashing at 5th and Turner streets where he was arrested and taken into custody.

While witnesses have told police they believe the shooting was a result of road rage, officials have not yet confirmed this. They continue to investigate.

Wi-Fi, phone calls, device charging, local information, and access to civic and emergency services will soon be available to all Philadelphians…for free.

LinkPHL kiosks, provided by Intersection, a smart cities technology and media company, will be installed throughout Center City, University City, and other locations across Philadelphia.

“LinkPHL will be an investment in Philadelphia’s future, creating 21st century infrastructure in the heart of the City,” said Mayor Jim Kenney. “But more importantly, the kiosks will provide the sort of modern services that our residents and visitors need as they work and play in the City -- at no cost to taxpayers.”

A hundred of the self-standing LinkPHL kiosks, called Links, have been approved for installation from the City’s Art Commission and the Office of Transportation and Infrastructure Systems.

LinkPHL offers device charging from two integrated USB quickcharge ports, free phone calls across the United States, direct 911 emergency calling, a touchscreen tablet for access to city services, information on city events, art and culture, in addition to high-speed, secure access to Wi-Fi that is 100x faster than average public Wi-Fi and LTE on mobile devices.

The Links are at no cost to the city, as they are supported completely through advertising, according to officials.

In addition to covering the costs of building, installation, maintenance, and upgrades, advertising is also expected to generate millions of dollars in revenue for Philadelphia, with a minimum annual guaranteed payment of $450,000 after the installation of the Links.

Officials say the revenue generated from the Links will help to fund public services.

Intersection has already installed 1,000 Links in New York City and has launched a project across the UK, with anticipation of thousands more set to be deployed over the next few years.

Local Lawmakers Open Conversation About Ending Catcalling

0

Local lawmakers held a round table discussion Wednesday at Philadelphia City Hall to start the conversation on strategies to prevent and eventually end street harassment.

Senator Lawrence Farnese of Philadelphia and the State Senate Democratic Policy Committee held the discussion, calling street harassment—including catcalling and unwanted comments—a major public health issue on Philadelphia streets.

“We have a dysfunctional problem in our society that has allowed this type of behavior where it’s become not only acceptable, but normalized,” Senator Farnese said.

The committee was chaired by Northampton Senator Lisa Boscola and co-chaired by Senator Farnese and Senator Judy Schwank. Participants at Wednesday's round table included Amber Hikes, Philly's executive director of the Office of LGBT Affairs, and Dr. Nina Ahmad, Philly's Deputy Mayor for Public Engagement.

“I’ve actually gotten into screaming altercations where I felt like my safety was in jeopardy,” Hikes said.

In a national poll, 65% of women reported experiencing some sort of street harassment in their lifetime.

“There’s hardly a place I can go where I won’t be harassed by anyone,” said Temple University student Kayla Watkins, one of the round table participants.

The group focused on how to change the attitudes and behaviors towards street harassment through education, outreach and policy changes.

The participants of Wednesday's event said that ending street harassment is still a work in progress. They plan on having similar discussions across the state.

Del. National Guard Vet Searches for Missing Service Dog

A Delaware veteran and her family are searching for her missing service dog.
Lori Bilyou told NBC10 her service dog Ozzy suffered a seizure and ran off from her Newark, Delaware home two weeks ago.

Bilyou is a National Guard veteran who served in Afghanistan. She suffered a brain injury and has PTSD as well as balance issues and needs Ozzy for help.

“Helping her get around. Helping her stay stable,” said Bilyou’s husband Guy Bilyou. “Picking things up for her. He’s a missing piece. It’s a vacancy. It’s like a hole in our hearts.”

[[454556253, C]]

Lori placed surveillance cameras on trees throughout her neighborhood and missing dog fliers were passed around the community Halloween night. Local pizza delivery drivers and mail carriers are also on the lookout. The couple says Ozzy has been spotted a few times not far from their home but each time the dog was scared away. Lori says she doesn’t want anyone to call for him or try to catch him. She just wants people to call her.

“He’s in survival mode,” she said. “He will run from everyone. I’m concerned about the hunters in the parks. I'm concerned about dogs chasing him and people trying to catch him because we need him to stay in the area so that we can catch up with him."

If you happen to spot Ozzy, call 302-765-8694.

Pickup Truck Slams Into Atlantic City Boardwalk

Atlantic City residents received a scare hours after the deadly terror attack in New York City when a truck crashed into part of the boardwalk.

Parthe Gujarati was inside his car near Martin Luther King Boulevard around 9 p.m. Tuesday when he saw a pickup truck speeding towards him. The truck was only a few inches away from hitting his vehicle but continued down the block.

“I had to move,” Gujarati told NBC10. “Had I not moved, trust me, I was going for a tough one.”

The pickup truck took out a light pole and fire hydrant and then side-swiped another car before finally ripping down railings on the boardwalk ramp and rolling off. The truck was flipped on its side and wedged between the ramp and a building. Surveillance video captured the moment of impact as debris flew in the air.

[[454543413, C]]

“It was definitely a wild scene,” Gujarati said. “Especially after the New York scene. That’s what is happening in everyone’s mind.”

The 55-year-old driver was trapped inside his mangled truck. Responding firefighters managed to cut him out of the wreckage.

“The extraordinary amount of damage made it a difficult operation to extricate the victim,” Atlantic City Fire Department Chief Scott Evans said.

The driver suffered serious injuries though no one else was hurt. While police are trying to figure out what led to the crash, they also say at this time there’s no indication that it was intentional. Despite this, with the incident occurring only hours after the deadly New York attack, Chief Evans said he initially feared the worst.

“When you hear a vehicle speeding down beach block towards the boardwalk, it does cross your mind,” Evans said.

The driver remains in the hospital.

A N.J. Law Backfired and Jammed Up 'Smart Gun' Technology

0
0

Donald Sebastian spent 12 years developing a “smart gun” that would only fire when in its owner’s hand.

But the gun created by Sebastian and his team at the New Jersey Institute of Technology isn’t likely to hit the market anytime soon.

In fact, smart gun technology may never take hold in the American market. And that has a lot to do with a law adopted by New Jersey lawmakers over a decade ago that backfired so spectacularly its effects have been felt across the entire country.

“It created all the necessary conditions to increase the polarization as opposed to create a common ground,” Sebastian said.

The rocky road for firearms usable only by one person has caused consternation within the gun industry for more than a decade. The technology is seen by some as a restriction on gun rights, which the National Rifle Association and others in the politically powerful pro-gun lobby have rejected in full for many years.

As one Maryland gun dealer put it after he nearly became the first to stock smart guns on his shelves, the technology is seen as a criticism of one of America’s sacred beliefs: gun rights.

“[If] they view you as a heretic, it’s on,” said Andy Raymond, owner of Engage Armament in Rockville. “And this thing is part of that. This technology is part of the heresy.”

The current unwritten rule banning the sale of smart guns by American dealers has its roots in a North Jersey lawmaker's intention 15 years ago to actually promote their use in the Garden State, which already has some of the strictest firearms sales restrictions.

State Sen. Loretta Weinberg, D-Bergen, sponsored legislation in 2002 that would require guns purchased in New Jersey to use smart technology if any gun dealer in the United States began selling them.

The law's effect, however, had a chilling effect on smart gun sales because the gun lobby saw the New Jersey law as a restriction on gun owners in the state.

That’s what led to a backlash against Raymond when he considered offering smart guns.

“The gun world is a religion. It’s a faith,” he said. “And you have serious adherence to the faith, people who would do anything to protect the faith and expand the faith.”

He initially believed safer guns, those that only their owners could fire, would get more people interested in gun ownership.

Raymond was wrong.

“I thought we could get anti-gun people or people who are fence sitting actually into guns," he said. "That was my intention.”

For now, smart guns are stuck in a paradoxical limbo. The Democrat-controlled New Jersey legislature repealed the law in 2014 only to have Republican Gov. Chris Christie veto it. His justification at the time was that the repeal would somehow restrict the sale of smart guns, and he couldn’t support restrictions of any kind.

Still, for someone like Pennsauken, New Jersey, police Capt. Tom Connor whose life and career revolve around firearms, he doesn’t understand why smart guns can’t be part of the solution to decreased gun violence.

Connor knows first-hand how the technology could potentially be a game changer for law enforcement. A suspect once tried ripping Connor’s handgun from the holster on his side. Luckily, Connor fought him off, but the concern remains that another suspect may try the same thing some day.

“If the technology is there to make guns safer why would we choose to make that the area of technology we don’t embrace?” Connor said.
