left lane to help a stranded driver with a flat tire, the cruiser was rear ended by another car sending it flying toward her -- or is that him? the officer was not hurt but her squad car was severely damaged. the crash is under investigation. --' female officer. >> san francisco police are trying to track down the person or people that opened fire as classes were letting out for the day yesterday. one is in critical condition and they believe that the shooter was not a student and they believe that one student in particular was the target but the motive is unclear. from our new jersey newsroom tonight, governor chris christie will appear before a judge next month to answer for a misconduct complaints related to the bridge gait scandal. a citizen filed a complaint knowing that he did not take

every action to reopen the lanes of the george washington bridge. last week a judge allowed that complaint to move forward in court. two christie aides are currently on trial in court. christie is due in court on hackensack on november 23rd. and plans to appeal the ruling. in light of new developments in the bridge gate standal and days after governor christie signed new jersey's gas tax hike his approval rating hit an all-time low. governor christie's approval rating stands at 21%. only two new jersey governors had lower ratings, brendan burn and jim florio in 1990. back here a special tribute today for a recently departed member of our family. carter, better known as captain

would you put people in jail for performing abortions? at some point doctors performing abortions i think would be subject to that sort of penalty. dscc is responsible for the content of this advertising. and so when i saw that, that was completely disqualifying. i'm a republican, but this election is so much bigger than party. my son max can't live in trump world. so i'm crossing party lines and voting for hillary. i don't always agree with her, but she's reasonable.

and she's smart. she can work with people to solve problems. i want to be able to tell my kids that i did the right thing when it really mattered. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. republican party bosses looked to find brian fitzpatrick. nearly three thousand miles - that's how far away they "hand-picked" him to run for his brother's seat. but all mike and brian fitzpatrick share is a name. brian fitzpatrick supports a radical republican agenda, including defunding planned parenthood, just like donald trump.

there are proven benefits lowering the risk for diabetes and heart disease and lowering the economications for child birth but a new study from the university of washington medical senter and officials show that infants born less than two years after a mother's bariatric surgery had lower birth rates. >> the way to reduce the risk is waiting two to three years after the operation and the babies development could be slowed due to the deficit. neither of these should deter women from considering weight loss surgery but it's something to keep in mind. in other news, there is more proof that eating whole grain is good for you a small study shows it could significantly lower your blood pressure, the

cleveland clinic followed three adults all overweight or obese, one followed the whole grains and after eight weeks the people on the whole grain diet saw a drop in hire blood pressure that is the bottom number and enough to lower their risk for heart attack and stroke. have you to watch portion size but as long as you don't have allergies when choosing bread, pasta and rice look for one with whole grains. back to you. >> believe is or not, there are seven days until christmas. but not too early to think about gift ideas, neiman markets have high end market in its christmas book. among the fantasy items, a $1.5 million private plane and his and her island cars and a private quarterback camp with
