According to the computer forecasts today, our chance for afternoon rain is actually a little lower than normal.

SOMEONE INTENTIONALLY DAMAGED THE ROOF OF ONE BUILDING - JUST OFF OF THE CAPE CORAL PARKWAY - IN DOWNTOWN.

TONIGHT -- THE SEARCH IS ON FOR THOSE RESPONSIBLE.

CAPE STRIP MALL VANDALIZED-LL PKG

I talked to the landlord of palm court off camera who tells me she has owned the building for years and takes pride in keeping her tenants happy. So she was surprised when her roofer told her someone had deliberately cut holes in her roof.

Take a look at the roof. where you see the two white square patches, that's where the roofer believes the cuts were made using some sort of blade.

The slits were made in the membrane of the roof, causing water damage to the ceiling and floors of the two businesses below.

-Lt Tony Sizemore / CCPD-01:37:12-"fortunately it was in the downtown of the city which means there might be some outdoor surveillance cameras then go through a list of possible suspects of who may have wanted to do this."

Damage to the building is estimated at more a thousand dollars. The front part of the building, which use to be a hair salon was not damaged.

So far no arrests have been made.

STORM WARN JP OPEN-CLIP

FORECAST-PHC

Our weather for the next several days is looking pretty good. We a looking a several days in a row of highs in the 90's, lows in the 70's and a couple of afternoon downpours or storms to track. According to the computer forecasts today, our chance for afternoon rain is actually a little lower than normal. That certainly doesn't mean that we will be dry and I do anticipate the afternoon showers to be isolated across southwest Florida through the weekend.

The tropics are active, but there is nothing pointing at Florida.

Isaac continues to move north and will spread rain up the Mississippi River Valley. Hurricane Kirk is in the Atlantic and will recurve northward. Tropical Storm Leslie is also in the far Atlantic and will likely move west for a few days before recurving north.

DANGEROUS BELLY FAT-ONCAM

WHILE ENJOYING THAT DELICIOUS FOOD IS GOOD FROM TIME TO TIME --

THERE IS A WARNING ABOUT OVER-INDULGING.

A NEW STUDY BY MAYO CLINIC OUTLINES BAD NEWS FOR THOSE CARRYING

EXTRA WEIGHT IN YOUR MID-SECTION.

DANGEROUS BELLY FAT-PKG

SCRIPT:

IT'S ONE OF THE MAIN REASON PEOPLE HEAD TO THE GYM.

"every client that I have asks about Belly fat and how to reduce it."

THAT DREADED BELLY FAT MAY NOT JUST BE UNWANTED BUT DOWN RIGHT DANGEROUS. A

MAYO CLINIC STUDY FOUND THOSE WITH BELLY FAT MAY BE MORE AT RISK OF DYING

THAN THOSE WHO ARE OBESE.

THE STUDY FOLLOWED MORE THAN 12 THOUSAND POEPLE OVER FOURTEEN YEARS AND

FOUND THAT PEOPLE WITH A LARGE HIP TO WAIST RATIO WERE NEARLY THREE TIMES

MORE LIKELY TO DIE. EVEN PEOPLE WITH A NORMAL BODY MASS BUT WITH A LARGE MID

SECTION WERE MORE AT RISK THAN THE OBESE.

"I think that people just tend to carry it there, you can't choose where you

carry your weight.":41

AND SHRINKING THE MIDSECTION IS HARD WORK.

"You have to do a full body work out, it takes more work and and effort."-

Derek:50

"You can't really spot reduce so you can't choose where you want to loose it

."--Gibbons

"but there are some everyday things that people can do to fight the belly

fat and one of them is as simple as taking the stairs.":58

"any movement helps."

"walking up hills, the stairs, and jumping rope."

MAYO CLINIC SAYS THESE FINDINGS PROVE IT'S IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO KNOW

WHERE THEIR FAT IS DISTRIBUTED, EVEN IF THEY HAVE A HEALTHY WEIGHT.

THAT CAN BE DONE WITH A SIMPLE WAIST TO HIP MEASUREMENT. AND TRAINERS SAY

DURING A WORKOUT SOME CORE FOCUSED EXCERCISES CAN HELP

"The core needs to be extrememly strong for everyday things, it's really

important to try to focus on it."

TZ5 BULLYING ON TAPE-VO

BUMP SHOT-BUMP IN

BULLYING ON TAPE-2SHOT-POP

IT'S A CASE OF BULLYING AT SCHOOL THAT IS HARD TO BELIEVE.

A CHILD IS LITERALLY DRAGGED AROUND HIS CLASSROOM --

ALL WHILE THE TEACHER IS WATCHING AND AT TIMES EVEN PARTICIPATED IN THE INCIDENT.

NOW, THE PARENTS OF THE BOY WANT THE TEACHER FIRED.

BULLYING ON TAPE-PKG

nat of blurring with him screaming/flailing

THE GRAINY VIDEO MAKES IT LOOK LIKE THESE ARE KIDS PICKING ON SOMEONE IN A DARK SECRET SPOT.

BUT THIS HAPPENED INSIDE A GIG HARBOR CLASSMATE WITH A TEACHER IN VIEW OF IT ALL.

THE 13-YEAR-OLD BOY WHO WE'RE NOT NAMING HAD HIS SOCK PUT IN HIS MOUTH AND HAD HIS FEET WRITTEN ON BACK IN FEBRUARY DURING WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A TIME FOR STUDENTS TO IMPROVE THEIR READING SKILLS.

"I had no idea no idea at all"

HIS PARENTS WERE TOLD THEIR SON HAD BEEN BEATEN UP BUT THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHY HE WAS SUDDENLY SCARED TO GO BACK TO CLASS.

WHEN THEY LEARNED STUDENTS VIDEOTAPED THE INCIDENT ON THEIR CELL PHONE THEY ASKED TO SEE THE VIDEOS.

"They kept telling us we can't see it because of privacy concerns with other kids. I said I'm trying to keep my son from committing suicide. What's going on here?"

THEY WERE SHOCKED TO SEE WHAT THE CLASSMATES DID TO THEIR SON BUT THEY ANGERED TO LEARN THE TEACHER PARTICIPATED IN IT.

IN ONE CLIP JOHN ROSI WEARING THE YELLOW SHIRT. THREATENS TO SIT ON THE BOY SAYING

NATS

"I'm feeling a little gassy."

"I'm feeling a little gassy."

AND WHEN THEIR SON APPROACHES THE TEACHER AND PICKS A FIGHT ADMITTEDLY JOKINGLY THE TEACHER PLAYFULLY TAKES HIM DOWN.

THE BOY'S PARENTS ADMIT THEIR SON APPEARS TO BE PLAYING ALONG BUT THEY THINK THAT WAS A COPING MECHANISM AND REGARDLESS THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED IN CLASS.

"I think the teacher was more like one of the boys than the educator"

"I was horrified by what I saw"

AFTER AN INTERNAL INVESTIGATION THE PENINSULA SCHOOL DISTRICT PUT ROSI ON A 10-DAY SUSPENSION WITHOUT PAY.

BUT THE ACTING SUPERINTENDENT SAYS IT WAS NOT DEEMED A FIREABLE OFFENSE.

"It's an isolated situation in an 18-year career that's horrific and it deserves some pretty significant action fast. And that's what we did."

THE STUDENT'S PARENTS PULLED THEIR SON OUT OF THE DISTRICT IN PART BECAUSE THEY DON'T THINK ANY CLASS WITH MR. ROSI IS SAFE.

12:07:54
