metro, we will continue to see it fail in through the morning. settle in for rain, 67 is what we topped out at. a mild day temperature wise, central portions of the state and southward. cooler to the north as highs top out in the upper-50's. elizabeth: breaking overnight -- police in nashville are investigating a fatal shooting on a college campus. shaina humphries is following this. so shaina, what do we know about the shooting so far? shaina: elizabeth, police believe the shooting was actually triggered by an argument over a dice game on the tennessee state university campus. three people were shot. one of those people is dead, the other two are being treated in a local hospital. the man who died was not a student, but a university spokesperson says the two injured victims are students. and their injuries are not life-threatening. no word yet if the suspect in this shooting is in custody. also developing right now, hurricane patricia strengthened to a category five storm as it

coast. mexico. 100 some miles south. people are making preparations some areas and officials have three mexican states and all schools are closed. officials warn the storm's effects could be catastrophic. flooding is already affecting parts of texas. cars in abilene drove through several inches of water during across the state for most of the day. officials say dozens of people had to be rescued from their vehicles. and now as hurricane patricia moves north, flooding there in texas is expected to get worse. eric: big stories in central iowa now. polk county sheriff's deputies are investigating a shooting in connection with a road rage incident in des moines. it happened thursday afternoon at northeast 50th street. officials say two groups of people got into an argument and drove off in separate cars. the lead car fired shots at the trailing car, sending the trailing car into a ditch. luckily no one was hurt. deputies are now looking for

the jury acquitted jesse benton of making false statements to law enforcement. they found dimitri kesari guilty of causing false records, not guilty of obstruction of justice, and could not agree on his charges of conspiracy and causing false campaign expenditure reports. eric: a new interchange at grand prairie parkway and i-80 in waukee won't just be a new roadway. it will also be a new experience for iowa drivers. the interchange will be called a diverging diamond. there are three in kansas city, but this will be the first one in iowa. the simplest explanation -- get used to driving on what will feel like the wrong side of the road when you pass over i-80. it's a design that limits the places where traffic crosses paths and allows more cars through at a faster rate. john gibson: we think there will be a lot of people coming down 141 come down alices road to get onto interstate rather than go around to the 141 to rider corner.

patients with them laying on their back. reach the heart, lungs, and even the skin. so, the bliss cancer center, a part of mary greeley medical center in ames, adapted what's called prone radiation treatment to decrease the chance of defects. instead of her back, a woman lays on her belly onto this pink board with cut out holes. you can see the breasts fall into the holes to be treated apart from other healthy tissues. >> no one is excited to have radiation. no one is excited to have cancer. but they are very excited to have radiation that is going to spare their heart and lungs. emmy: this treatment can also decrease skin reactions and a second cancer from forming. the bliss cancer center is the first place in central iowa that offers this. more than 25% of patients at bliss are diagnosed with breast cancer. live in studio, emmy victor, kcci 8 news, iowa's news leader. eric: thanks, emmy. shaina is back with another health story developing this morning. shaina?

turing from a story last month. it made headlines when it hiked up the price of a drug used to treat a life-threatening infection from $13 dollars to $750 per pill. well, overnight we learned a competition drug company imprimis will supply that same drug for just $1 per pill to make the pills more widely available. turing ceo martin shkreli recently promised to lower the price but that has not happened yet. and right now, federal regulators are urging drivers to get your cars fixed immediately if it's part of the recent takata airbag recall. the faulty airbags are responsible for eight deaths and nearly 100 injuries so far. 19.2 million vehicles from 12 manufacturers are affected and the officials say less than a quarter of those recalled have been fixed nationwide. drivers are encouraged to go to safercar.gov to see if their vehicle is listed and make an immediate appointment for a free repair. elizabeth: more economic headlines now.

1.5 million vehicles in the u.s. this morning because ignition switches can overheat and catch fire. the recall impacts these seven models. so far, no injuries or accidents have been reported. dealers will replace the ignition switches starting in december. many cars these days are equipped with hands-free technology designed to keep your attention on the road. but a new aaa study shows hands-free can actually be more dangerous than previously thought. distracted driving killed more than 3100 people and injured about 424,000 in the year 2013 alone. the aaa study finds even the hands-free systems that work with voice commands leave drivers with something called lingering distraction. >> you have to kind of get out of that distracted zone and to much more of an alert driver, but that takes time, it takes up to 27 seconds. if you are now all of a sudden talking to your phone, you are now focusing on one task to the exclusion of tending to the driving environment. elizabeth: researchers say the bottom line is -- just because

in your car doesn't necessarily mean it's safe to use while driving. eric: stocks surged on wall street thursday. the dow was up more than 320 points. big day. the nasdaq added almost 80. and the s&p 500 jumped more than 33. a note for holiday shoppers -- starting this sunday, best buy will offer free shipping on all purchases through january 2. the electronics chain says it is trying to compete with companies like amazon, walmart, and target. they offer similar things. your pizza deliveries are about to get a sweet new ride. domino's announced this week it's launching 100 custom pizza delivery vehicles across the u.s. you will not miss them. they're modified chevy sparks outfitted with a warming oven, extra storage areas, and only one seat for the driver. more room for more pizza. domino's says these new cars will allow drivers to carry up to 80 pizzas at a time. you can have a pizza party.

bliss is the first place in central iowa to provide this form of radiation. shaina: incredible to see that. another disease fighting tool to show you. you may find this surprising. wisdom teeth. some people are keeping their wisdom teeth after they're extracted - they ship them to a facility where they're frozen and kept for decades to come. the reason they contain stem cells that could one day help cure a number of diseases that the patient might face -- things like stroke, brain injury, or heart attacks. the company is called vault and so far the interest is high. elizabeth: i think they sent my wisdom teeth home with me. you wonder what do you do it them. shaina: now there is an option. keep them in your pocket.
