Traffic jam after accident on Route 30 in York County, Pennsylvania.

LIFE. THIS IS COVERAGE YOU CAN TRUST. WGAL NEWS 8 TODAY STARTS NOW. THE ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP HEARING CONTINUES TODAY IN WASHINGTON STATE. AND LOCAL POLICE ARE SCHEDULED TO TESTIFY ON THE PREVIOUS STORIES IN BUTLER. ALSO, A CONVICTED MURDERER IS CHARGED IN CONNECTION WITH ANOTHER FATAL SHOOTING. THIS TIME IN DAUPHIN COUNTY. BUT HE WILL NOT BE FACING MURDER CHARGES. WE'LL TELL YOU WHY. AND STUDENTS AT A SCHOOL IN DAUPHIN COUNTY CAN EXPECT CHANGES ON CAMPUS AS THE SCHOOL PREPARES TO IMPLEMENT ITS POLICIES ON CELL PHONE USE. GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE. IT'S 4:30 AM ON THIS THURSDAY MORNING. I'M MATT BARCARO. I'M KATELYN SMITH. WE'RE GLAD YOU'RE WITH US. LET'S CHECK OUR FORECAST. BECAUSE THIS RAINER HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR DAYS NOW. WE'VE BEEN COMPLAINING THAT IT WASN'T RAINING. NOW WE'VE GOT IT. I KNOW WE'RE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE RAIN RIGHT NOW, SO IT'S ONCE AGAIN OVERLOOKED OUT THERE THIS MORNING. LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT WE'VE GOT OUT. EXPECT FOG AND SOME SHOWERS. WE'RE SEEING LIGHT RAIN BLOWING FROM THE SOUTH TO THE NORTH AND JUST MODERATE RAIN JUST COMING OUT OF MARYLAND AND APPROACHING ADAMS AND YORK COUNTY. SO I'LL KEEP AN EYE ON THAT FOR YOU THIS MORNING. BUT OTHERWISE WE SHOULD GET A GOOD HEAP OF RAIN ALONG WITH SOME REDUCED VISIBILITY, SOME FOG, EVEN DRIZZLE IN PLACES. AND THEN I THINK IT'LL BE A LITTLE DRIER IN THE AFTERNOON. SO TAKE NOTE OF OUR CURRENT TEMPERATURES. THEY'RE ABOVE 15 DEGREES IN MOST PLACES, AND OUR DEW POINTS ARE HIGH AS WELL. SO THE AIR FEELS GAYER TODAY. LOOK AT OUR HIGHS, WHICH ARE COMING AFTER DAYS ABOVE 15 DEGREES, WHICH ARE GETTING WARMER. WE'RE GOING TO AIM FOR 76 DEGREES AS A HIGH TODAY. THERE COULD BE SOME RUMBLE OF THUNDER LATER IN THE AFTERNOON, BUT IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE DRYER THIS AFTERNOON. IF YOU WANT TO GO OUT AND TAKE A WALK, WE'LL TALK MORE ABOUT HALLOWEEN. THE MAJOR HURRICANE THAT MADE LAND IN FLORIDA TONIGHT. BACK TO YOU NEXT, CHRISTINE. THANK YOU. TODAY A HOUSE COMMITTEE WILL HEAR TESTIMONY FROM STATE AND LOCAL POLICE AND A FORMER SECRET SERVICE AGENT ABOUT THE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT ON DONALD TRUMP. A BIPARIST TASK FORCE HAS BEEN INVESTIGATING WHAT HAPPENED THERE. AND THE OTHER ATTEMPT IN FLORIDA. IN REVIEWING DOCUMENTS AND INTERVIEWS, THEY ALSO TALKED TO THE FBI, SECRET SERVICE AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES AT THE SITE OF THE SHOOTINGS IN PENNSYLVANIA. A SEPARATE REPORT YESTERDAY FOUND THAT THERE WERE FORESEEABLE AND AVOIDABLE INTELLIGENCE FAILURES AT MULTIPLE LEVELS. THERE WAS NO CLEAR COMMUNICATION BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES AND NO DECISION WAS MADE ON WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR SECURING THE BUILDING THE GUNS SHOT FROM. CONGRESS AVOIDED A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN BY PASSING A TEMPORARY FUNDING BILL. BOTH THE HOUSE AND SENATE APPROVED THE BILL LAST NIGHT, WHICH FUNDS THE GOVERNMENT UNTIL DECEMBER 20. IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH REPUBLICAN VOTES TO PASS THE BILL BUT HE GOT SUPPORT FROM THE DEMOCRATS WHICH WAS MORE THAN ENOUGH TO GET THE 330 41 VOTES TO PASS IT TODAY. THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES DID WHAT NEEDED. WE TOOK THE INITIATIVE AND PASSED A CLEAN, CLEAN CR FOR THREE MONTHS TO PREVENT THE SENATE FROM AMPLIFYING US WITH ANOTHER BLOATED BILL WHILE CONTINUING RESOLUTIONS ARE NEVER IDEAL, NONE OF US LIKE THEM. THIS IS NO WAY TO RUN A RAILROAD. IT ALLOWS CONGRESS TO CONTINUE SERVING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DURING THE ELECTION. THE FUNDING PLAN INCLUDES $231 BILLION IN ADDITIONAL FUNDS FOR THE INTELLIGENCE SERVICE. THE MAYOR OF NEW YORK CITY IS CHARGED WITH FEDERAL CRIMINAL ASSASSINATION. THIS CHARGE AGAINST ERIC ADAMS FOLLOWS A MONTHS-LONG INVESTIGATION INTO VIOLATIONS OF CAMPAIGN FUNDRAISING LAWS AND ALLEGATIONS OF FOREIGN INFLUENCE. THE EXACT CHARGES HE IS FACING ARE NOT YET PUBLIC. ADAMS HAS PREVIOUSLY DENIED ANY IMPOSSIBLE CONDUCT AND SAYS HE HAS URGED MEMBERS OF HIS CAMPAIGN AND ADMINISTRATION TO COMPLY WITH THE LAW. A STATEMENT FROM HIS OFFICE SAYS IN PARAGRAPH: “I ALWAYS KNEW THAT WHEN I STANDED UP FOR NEW YORKERS I WOULD BECOME A TARGET, AND I WAS.” HE WILL NOT RESIGN. NEW THIS MORNING: A MAN CURRENTLY SERVING A SENTENCE IN A STATE PRISON FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER AND ASSAULT IS NOW FACING A SENTENCE ON NEW CHARGES. A DAUPHIN COUNTY JURY CONVICTED GREGORY DUNBAR, 65, OF NINE COUNTS OF RETRIBUTION AGAINST A LAW OFFICIAL IN JULY 2018. DUNBAR FILED LAWSUIT ALLEGING THE DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS PROHIBITED HIM FROM ACCESSING SEXUALLY EXPOSED MATERIAL IN HIS PRISON CELL BECAUSE IT VIOLATED HIS RIGHTS UNDER SECTIONS 1 AND 14 OF THE AMENDMENTS. DAUPHIN COUNTY PROSECUTOR FRAN CHARDO SAYS THE CASE WAS DISMISSED A YEAR LATER, BUT INSTEAD OF APPEAL THE COURT'S DECISION, DUNBAR FILED COMPLAINT AGAINST NINE JUDGES TO THE PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE IN SEPTEMBER 2019. DUNBAR WAS SUPPORTED TO SERVE HIS PRISON SENTENCE FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER AND ASSAULT IN APRIL OF NEXT YEAR, BUT NOW HE WANT TO BE SENT TO UP TO 36 MORE YEARS IN PRISON. HARRISBURG POLICE ARE CHARGING A 30-YEAR-OLD IN CONNECTION WITH A FATAL SHOOTING THAT KILLED A 17-YEAR-OLD STEELTON HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT, BUT THE CHARGES HERE ARE NOT MURDER. ANTOINE BYERS WAS SHOT AND KILLED ON REGINA STREET ON AUGUST 12, JUST WEEKS BEFORE HIS 18TH BIRTHDAY. NOW THE ACCUSED SHOOTER, 30-YEAR-OLD RASHEED NEAL, FACED FIVE FELONY CHARGES OF POSSESSION OF A WEAPON AS A CONVICTED FELON. NEAL WAS ACTUALLY CONVICTED OF MURDER IN NORTH CAROLINA. BUT THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY IN DAUPHIN COUNTY TELLS US THAT THIS SHOOTING WAS OUT OF NECESSITY. CURRENTLY POLICE SAY NEAL IS NOT IN CAPTURE IN LANCASTER COUNTY. COURT DOCUMENTS INDICATE THAT THE VICTIM, WHO WAS STATED IN THE CARE OF HER LANDLORDS, WAS PREGNANT AT THE TIME. MICHAEL ROHRBACH IS CHARGED WITH THE ALLEGED INCIDENT THAT TOOK PLACE SIX YEARS AGO. THE ACCUSED TELLS POLICE SHE CALLED ROHRBACH TO FIX A DOORKNOB IN HER APARTMENT. IN THE AFFIDATE, SHE TELLS INVESTIGATORS ROHRBACH MADE HER ON THE COUCH. NEWS EIGHT ASKED POLICE ABOUT THE DELAY IN THE VICTIM'S REPORTING. SEXUAL ASSAULT IS ONE OF THE MOST UNDER-REPORTED CRIMES. DELAYED DISCLOSURES ARE A COMMON OCCURENCE. ROHRBACH TOLD POLICE THE ENCOUNTER HAD TO OCCUR. IT WAS CONSENTIAL, BUT SHE COULD REMEMBER DETAILS OF THE INCIDENT THAT HE COULDN'T. HIS LAWYER TOLD NEWS EIGHT THAT THE EVIDENCE IN THE CASE IS, QUOTE, PRETTY THIN. ROHRBACH IS FREE ON BAIL. POLICE ARE LOOKING FOR ANY POSSIBLE OTHER VICTIMS. IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION, YOU CAN CONTACT DETECTIVE JARED SNYDER AT THE LANCASTER POLICE DEPARTMENT AT THE NUMBER DISPLAYED ON YOUR SCREEN. IT'S 436, AND LANCASTER POLICE HAVE ALSO IDENTIFIED A 15-YEAR-OLD STUDENT AT MCCASKEY HIGH SCHOOL WHO THEY SAID WAS POSTING THREATS OF VIOLENCE. THE DISTRICT SAYS THE STUDENT POSTED A SERIES OF MESSAGES ON INSTAGRAM ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY. AND IN A LETTER TO PARENTS, THE LANCASTER SCHOOL DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT SAYS THE THREATENING MESSAGES WITH PHOTOS OF MCCASKEY HIGH SCHOOL WERE ALL JUST A PRANK AND UNBELIEVABLE. THE STATEMENT CONTINUES, QUOTE: “AN APPRECIATION TO OUR STUDENTS WHOSE WILLINGNESS TO SHARE THEIR CONCERNS WITH TRUSTED ADULTS AT SCHOOL HELPED OUR TEAM INVESTIGATE AND RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.” POLICE SAYS NO CHARGES HAVE BEEN FILED AND THE INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING. THIS MORNING WE GET A BETTER LOOK AT HOW A SCHOOL DISTRICT IN THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY WILL LIMIT STUDENTS' CELL PHONE USE IN THE CLASSROOM. THE HARRISBURG SCHOOL DISTRICT RECEIVER HAS APPROVED THE PURCHASE OF LOCKABLE PHONE CASES LIKE THE ONE SEEN HERE. CASES WITH A SIMPLE CLIP, LIKE THE ONE MADE BY TECHNOLOGY COMPANY YONDR, CAN KEEP STUDENTS FROM USING THEIR PHONES. BUT NOW THE SCHOOL DISTRICT ALREADY HAD A NO CELL PHONE POLICY IN PLACE FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL. THEY HOPE THESE CASES WILL HELP ENFORCE THAT POLICY. MOST OF US IN TODAY'S WORLD ARE ADDICTED TO CELL PHONES. IF WE CAN'T HELP THE TEENAGERS UNDERSTAND THE DESTRUCTIVE HABITS THAT CAN RESULT, THINGS WILL ONLY GET WORSE. BUT I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA. THE DISTRICT SAYS STUDENTS CAN STILL BE REACHED BY EMAIL AT
