ruins. officials have been trying to calm tensions following the shooting of smith. that comes amid nationwide tensions over race and the use of deadly force. he was armed with a loaded handgun and was running from a traffic stop when he was killed by a police officer. that officer has not been identified. officials are only saying that like smith, he is black. >> there's more issues than that. you know, it's just not -- it was like a spark or something that's been brewing and, you know, bubbling for a long time. >>russell: body cam video shows smith turning toward the officer with a gun in his hand. city's mayor, wisconsin governor scott walker want to release the video to collaborate the police account, not clear when that's going to happen. state law requires all police shootings to be investigated by

turning over such evidence. >>laura: pinellas park police say a devastating teacher has died. >>russell: her boyfriend was in the car and he remains in the hospital with serious injuries. they were driving home from a date early sunday when a man ran a red light. caroline died yesterday and sean's back has been broken. the couple met as the music program. she was a music teacher at five pinellas county elementary schools. >> her passion for her music and for kids just comes through. you know, being in her classrooms, there was always something energetic going o. you could feel the love of it. >>russell: the suspected, macleod, being held in jail on $50,000 bond. if he gets out, he's requires to

some people have been arrested. the crime ring strikes again and that's really got to make a lot of owners and businesses that haven't been hit like these over here pretty nervous. let's get right to that surveillance video. thieves smashed throug the glass doors in auburndale. that was back on thursday. they went straight for the car keys and then drove off. criminals got away with five cars. if this looks familiar, there's a reason. two weeks ago, citrus county the exact same thing at a dealership in inverness. suspects are believed to have hit nearly a dozen dealerships. problem is the crimes didn't stop after the guys went to jail and like we said, detectives believe this is part of a larger crime ring. the manager is hoping that somebody knows these criminals and calls police. >> for the benefit of everyone out there that's doing the

earn a living, we need to find them, put them behind bars, do whatever is necessary so we don't have to spend extra money to try to keep their things secure. >> crime ring has targeted dealerships from the east coast to the west coast of florida and the tampa bay area alone. businesses have been hit in places like davenport, wesley chapel and now auburndale. all within the last few weeks. some of these vehicles have been recovered, all five cars in the auburndale crime, those were found b stolen vehicles out there and still obviously several criminals out there so somebody with information should call 91 # 1 or crime stoppers. back to you. >>russell: thank you. zika virus is spreading state to state. health officials say someone from texas who recently traveled to miami has tested positive for the virus. that patient is from el paso and it's that county's first case of the virus.

linked to travel within the united states. officials say the person recently travelled to the miami neighborhood that's at the center of florida's homegrown zika outbreak. this does not mean it's an epidemic. it only demonstrates how easy it is to spread the virus once people are infected in one area. number of locally transmitted cases in florida does continue to rise. one case was the one mile square area where the virus is active. the state is now enlisting the help of commercial mosquito control companies to keep the virus from spreading to other areas. >>laura: a man accused of killing a police officer in rural georgia was arrested yesterday in florida. nassau county deputies found him hiding in the trunk of his sister's car. he fatally shot officer smith. it happened saturday night.

calling it extreme. trump says we should only admit people in the country if they share values. he calls it extreme vetting. in order to implement the screening process, his administration would temporarily suspend immigration from some of the most dangerous countries in the world. >> in the cold war, we had an ideological screening te new screening test for the threats we face today. i call it extreme vetting. i call it extreme, extreme vetting. our country has enough problems. we don't need more. these are problems like we've never had before. >>russell: policy announcement

clinton founded isis. clinton's campaign says the policy cannot be taken seriously. >>laura: monday was the first day of early voting for the florida primary. >>ussell: driven by the high stakes u.s. senate race, turnout is up 25% from two years ago. more than 1900 people cast ballots yesterday in hillsborough. in 2014 more than 20,000 people voted early. monday's numbers set a pace for 26,000. you can vote bet august 28. polls are open on primary election day. that will be august 30.p>>laurae the voting booth, remember no cameras. there's a big legal battle brewing right now over ballot selfies. voters take photos of themselves or their ballots while at the polls. many states already have laws on the books right now restricting voters from sharing ballot information like this.

privacy where the voters can be used as proof for transactions. state law says no photography is permitted in the polling room or the early voting area. in new hampshire the makers of snap chat are allowing ballot selfies. they want them. the case is scheduled for oral arguments next month. a decision is not expected until after the general election. >>russell: i don't know. for some reason, it makes me ballot selfies. at least they're voting. at least you're voting. think about that. all right. it's the second day of class for students in polk county. a new school is facing an old problem. it is one that the school was designed to fix. >>laura: one we did not see coming yesterday. it's some of the worst flooding the state of louisiana has ever seen. the rain is over, but there are still plenty of dangers lurking in the water. >>lindsay: no rain locally this morning. great visibility out the door.

view over downtown tampa. sunrise is 7:00. rain, a couple of sprinkles near i-25. beach goers like the pattern because rain holds off until probably 4:00 today. a hot day with low 90s. heating up a bit in the tropics, too.

david was proud to be an american soldier. and i know i'm prejudiced because he was my son, but i don't think he had a mean bone in his body. there is not a day that i don't think about david. when i saw donald trump attack another gold star mother, i felt such a sense of outrage. "she was standing there, she had nothing to say..." if donald trump cannot respect a gold star family, then why would anyone in america think he would respect them.

the man police believe started a >>laura: the man police believe started a massive wildfire in california is facing 17 counts of arson. lake county fire has wiped out whole blocks and destroyed more than 175 homes and businesses. fortunately, no injuries have been repord still only about 5% contained. and the hot, dry conditions continue. damon is currently in jail right now. officials believe he's response i will for other wildfires as well. >>russell: louisiana a 48-hour tore -- torrant of rain. a body was pulled from the water, some of the worst flooding that state has ever

feet. as of yesterday, the rain is mostly stopped but new places are still getting hit by the flood waters as it moves toward the gulf. lindsay, i was watching paul last night, and he said something that stunned me. that in these few days, they've had more rain in louisiana than they've had in years in california. >>lindsay: something like five years, i think. it puts it in perspective. it wasn't a tropical system but it honestly might as well have been because of the way the moisture flung up from the gulf of mexico. just tragic when you put in perspective how some places need the rain and then we'll see more rain probably. this may be the best story of the hurricane system, even though it wasn't a tropical system. we have all the green boxes. those are all flood watches and warnings. the saving grace is this front

it stalled to the west. notice the rain along the overrunning boundary east of dallas, houston going to see more rain than louisiana today but arkansas seeing it and this front extends all the way up toward the ohio valley so here's the low pressure. that severe weather, heavy rain pushing across this entire region because it's blocked by the same high that's making it so warm across the east coast. what we'll be tracking the next couple of days, watch the clock going all the way to even saturday. sure, a couple of inches of rain. spots but it's not the additional rain. it's just the rivers and they're receding and the aftermath these places will deal with. little rock, two inches. speaking of rain, here is skytower locally this morning. very quiet. we like the east wind for the morning commute. on the east coast, though, they're not a huge fan because they have the pesky little sprinkles. here is one just west of vero, rain-free all morning long. by midday, a couple of showers.

good visibility, a couple of clouds. it's a muggy start to the day. 77 in arcadia, 79 in leesburg and 78 degrees out the toor in winter haven so we factor in the humidity. i'm going to throw it out there. feels like the mid 80s in a few spots but only hotter in the afternoon until it rains which at least the rain comes in mid-afternoon instead of very late day. what will happen is these pesky showers inland by lunchtime, between 2:00 and 6:00, they build back west so for your eening the coastal counties, you'll see the best rain chance today. by noon, probably no rain here in tampa but 92. scattered storms pushing west all the way through thursday and then those winds flip-flopped. by the weekend storms pushing the opposite way. here is future cast today. there's the inland rain chance midday and here come the scattered storms. watch how quickly they exit. here is 7:00, 8:00. we're not talking about in terms of rain tonight. we're talking about another

back west. a couple of scatter ones late in the day. tropics, disturbance. while it is moving west now, look at the models taking it more northerly. we love to see this track. nxt named storm is fiona which will likely be developing in the days ahead. 92 for today. scattered afternoon and evening storms, pushing back to the west coast. that's a pattern we've been locked in for a few days. long gone the rain by sunset at 8:07. 91 with morning sun and a 60% chance of afternoon storms tomorrow. it's a little more active. east winds at 10 knots today. moderate chop. discouraging voting late afternoon as the storms will be racing in. high tide is a midday one. we're on low tide at 6:35. seven-day forecast, we bump the rain chance by sunday. before you get excited. it's inland storms so it's just the pattern change. let's toss it over to vanessa and get another check of the commute. >>vanessa: right now we're

police activity is we're seeing out of the st. pete area, appears to be causing partial lane blockage of some sort. westbound direction we're told this is 16th -- or 13th avenue north near 16th street. so westbound direction is what we're told is the area of concern here. we don't have any reported crashes in the area so we're trying to figure out whether this is a traffic stop or something else but nevertheless, be prepared for some police cars there on the side of the roadway and we'll let you know once we figure out what it is we'll get to this. i want to head to pasco in the last hour reported on debris in the roadway along 75. that might still be there in the southbound direction at wesley chapel boulevard and we're hearing this actually stems from a crash. in addition to the debris you might see in the travel lanes, you'll likely see a scene on the side of the roadway so please remember your move over law here. we'll get to downtown lakeland. yesterday we were telling you about the railroad work that was expected to close yesterday, that railroad crossing,

i told you that had been delayed until today. good news is, while you're avoiding that area, kentucky avenue is now clear so the closure we're seeing there is no longer sitting around, blocking things up so you should be good to go in that area. >>laura: scientists have found something adorable lurking at the bottom of the sea. we'll show that to you ahead in hot clicks. >>russell: and this is the new ice bucke why everyone from average joes to celebrities are filming

storm chance that quickly ends by 7:00. feeling really, really hot like the triple digits so take it easy. take it easy on the roads, too. here is van's -- vanessa with an update. >>vanessa: and we're checking out all the traffic heading along southbound 275 in towards the interchange. this is a camera near osbourne. you can see the volumes are starting to pick up notably since the last time we checked out a 275 camera in this area so just be prepared normal congestion but i don't see any incidents that will slow things down considerably. 275 southbound, fletcher if you're heading past the interchange all the way down to pinellas county. pinellas bayway, 34 minutes is that drive. eight minutes to get from fowler avenue to the selmon expressway. we just switched from the green times, getting into the yellow zone just slightly here along i-4 westbound coming from the area of the connector to 275.

the kids who want to come here are, unfortunately, not going to be able to come here. so yesterday when parents tried to register their kids on the first day of school, they were told it is not going to happen because it's overcrowded. here's what the school website says this morning. citrus ridge is now at capacity. as you register your student, your registration will be dated and time stamped. due to class size restriction, your student may not be able to attend citrus ridge for entire 2016-2017 school year. your student will be assigned to another school in the district. school board policy authorizes the superintendent to make administrative assignments, displacement may present an inconvenience to your family. however, we must comply with the law. now the problem is if they're not going here, where are they going to go? this school was built because a lot of other schools in the area, which is a very growing

that is the situation at the start of the school year. so it's not going to be an easy fit. if the kids have to be bussed out of here, how far are they going to be bussed? inconvenience there. that's something that officials will have to deal with this morning. they started the process yesterday. they're going to wrap up the whole deal by the end of the week. back to you guys. >>russell: thanks. all right. u.s. has sent 15 guantanamo bay detainees to the united arab emirates. it's the largest single administration. transfer brings the total number of prisoners to 61. most of the inmates have been held without charges or trials more than a decade. president wants to close the facility before he leaves office. >>laura: a group of heavily armed men in mexico abducted at least a dozen people in the seaside resort town. hostages were celebrating at a restaurant before they were taken away in two big utility vehicles. motive for the attack is not

chance for development. odds are higher. it should not play a role in the local weather. visibility was perfect but we had a little bit of low cloud cover. it's crept into northern citrus, maybe a few spots in hernando or pasco. just some low clouds and lots of low temps especially on the east coast. it's 84 at west palm. we're at 80 in tampa. 78 in sebring. factor in the humidity which has been so values in the low to mid 80s by the coast. by 9:00 a.m., it will feel like the 90s for a good chunk of the area. best part of the east wind is this skytower. so quiet in the morning hours. east coast, some pesky, tiny little showers which may give way to late morning or midday rain, eastern poeg polk and highlands county. watch how quickly the clouds will fill in by midday. those storms pushing back towards the local area later on. next couple of days, that's a pattern, too.
