Cindy and Mark Hill of tiny Dearborn, Missouri say they are still in shock.
. And understandably so after winning half of the record 588 million dollar
Powerball jackpot.
In fact - Cindy says her husband didn't believe it until he actually saw the
ticket.
SOT CINDY
He goes, I really got to look at this.
What will they do with the money?
SOT CINDY
Other than a few trips here and there and college funds we're just the same
people. My husband is keeping the same old pick up. He did ask for a Red
Camaro though.
Cindy Hill says her husband gave her $10 to buy the tickets -- and a quick
pick chose the right combination.
Their son Cody said his father told him not to tell anyone, but couldn't
keep the secret himself.
SOT CODY HILL
I said yeah, dad didn't want me to say anything. she said have you seen
his Facebook. so I got on my dad's Facebook and it was like I think it's
pretty safe to say the cat's out of the bag so.
And new clues about who the second powerball winner might be.
Take a look at this surveillance tape from an Exxon station in Prince George
's County, Maryland.
This appears to be the lucky man.dressed in a bright yellow outfit often
worn by highway workers.Learning he's won.
Store Worker - He wanted everyone to look to make sure he wasn't seeing
things and he wasn't seeing things. It was the right numbers.
He then shows the ticket.Apparently purchased in Arizona.To another
customer.
Man - He says is this the right numbers. and I look at the numbers and said
. Yes. that's the numbers you got them all
No one could tell us the man's name, but they claim he lives locally in
Maryland.
Store Worker - It's amazing absolutely amazing I couldn't believe it
STANDUP WINICK
California won't have to miss out on the next Powerball drawing. Due to
popular demand, the Golden State will add the game to its lottery lineup

SUNSHINE TO RETURN
Clouds were in abundance for us on Friday. The skies had a dreary look, yes, but the sunshine will soon return!
The big question… Will it return this weekend? Well, let me take you through the changes and let you know.
We have two systems at play in our local weather pattern. First, high pressure is nudging into the state, and it's bringing low level clouds from the Atlantic to the area. Next is a piece of energy in the upper portions of the atmosphere that made its way over from Texas. It's also giving us added clouds, but they're in the high variety.
So we have clouds coming in from both the east and west. Thankfully, the system that came from Texas will move out by tomorrow afternoon, and guess what that means?
The sun is back!
Thus, we're going to call Saturday, Sunday, and Monday partly sunny. Morning lows will be around 60, and daytime highs - get ready - warming up to the lower if not mid 80s! Not only do we get the sun in full force, we get a warming trend, too.
But that's why we live in Florida, right?
As we go into Tuesday we'll see the clouds increase due to another cold front approaching. However, it's going to become disorganized and fall apart as it gets closer. That's been the trend so far this season, fronts completely dying before reach the region. This means no cold air and no rainfall.
Clouds? Yes, but only for Tuesday and Wednesday. After midweek the sun is back with a vengeance, and the warm temperatures continue.
Boaters use caution if you go out as winds will be coming from the E-NE at 15 to 20 knots.

AN A-B-C 7 WARNING TONIGHT --
DANGEROUS TOYS FROM OVERSEAS ARE FLOODING THE U-S MARKET.
THEY COULD HURT YOUR CHILDREN.
ABC'S PIERRE THOMAS SHOWS YOU WHICH TOYS TO AVOID --
AND THE EASY RED FLAG TO SPOT DANGER.
Return to index of stories...
This might look like fun--U.S. customs officers BLOWING BUBBLES with these
colorful TOYS. But the work is deadly serious and might save your child's
life.
Thursday authorites were TESTING this toy car in a New Jersey warehouse--
right out of the box-- for lead contamination.
CUSTOMS OFFICIAL SOT: " you see on the red part it says fail" / "It's
showing that there is an excessively high content of lead in these rubber
tires, so that's something that children could ingest and that would be
harmful to their development."
This year, Customs Officials and the Consumer Product Safety Commission have
blocked record amounts of overseas shipments bound for toy stores near you
-- seizing more than 2 million toys and children products.
AGUILAR SOT: Parents, grandparents, families please be vigilant and think
safety as you shop. "
Dolls and action figures, toy guns and cars---the prime gifts that should
bring holiday cheer are often among the most dangerous items. Some have
electrical or choking hazards. Others sharp edges.
And lead contamination is a growing concern.
In some cases, the lead levels are 1,000 TIMES HIGHER THAN U.S. FEDERAL
STANDARDS ALLOW.
CUSTOMS OFFICIAL SOT: There are toys that get through customs and end up on
toy shelves, but we also send people out to do retail sweeps
What can you do to protect your child? Examine the toy closely for possible
choking, and electrical hazards.
And RED FLAGS --- pricey looking toys that seems WAY TOO CHEAP?

For example,Tomsky says tip-BEFORE you surrender your car--or expect the
abuse to begin
TIP GRAPHIC: YOUR WHEELS, THEIR SQUEALS
JACOB TOMSKY 01:13:05 the valet's not gonna make any money unless he gets
that dollar tip. So. so there's a. there's a focus on speed, /Of
course when it comes out it's driven really slowly and carefully
Tomsky says come to the desk with your friend president Jackson and an
upgrade could be yours. Flash a 'tude instead, watch your back.
CHRIS CUOMO 01:08:11 SO when I show up I want to carry my bags,
I've got the forearms of a Java man. I don't want to pay the guy to do it.
You're aware that guys like me exist. What do ya do?/
JACOB TOMSKY 01:08:20 guilt and fear is, uh. can be applied to you very
easily. / 01:09:14 I would just say the bellman's gonna take
you to your room. Just a real declarative sentence that you can't. you
can't really fight.
You'll probably ante up-rather than risk looking cheap. If not.
TOMSKY -Uh, the bellman, uh, and the doorman are very good at lingering, uh,
it's a very strong skill. 't know if it's.
CHRIS CUOMO 01:08:44 Lingering as a skill.
JACOB TOMSKY 01:08:45 someone just, /stands a little too long, makes
you a little too uncomfortable, uh, and then you reach for your wallet.

IN YOUR ABC7 HEALTHY LIVING TONIGHT
NUTRITION LABELS ARE THERE TO HELP US.
AND RESEARCH SHOWS PEOPLE WHO READ THEM TEND TO BE SLIMMER THAN THOSE WHO DON'T.
BUT ONLY NINE PERCENT OF PEOPLE ACTUALLY LOOK AT THE CALORIE COUNTS ON A LABEL.
TONIGHT WE SHOW YOU HOW TO MASTER THE ART OF FOOD LABELING.
Return to index of stories...
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?
HOW ABOUT THIS?
IF YOU DON'T KNOW, DON'T FEEL BAD. RESEARCH SHOWS ONLY ONE PERCENT OF PEOPLE LOOK AT TOTAL FAT, TRANS FAT AND SERVING SIZE WHEN THEY LOOK AT LABELS. TRUE OR FALSE: YOU SHOULD ALWAYS LOOK AT TOTAL FAT? LOOK FOR
SATURATED FATS INSTEAD. IT RAISES BLOOD CHOLESTEROL LEVELS AND INCREASES YOUR RISK FOR HEART DISEASE AND STROKE. FIVE PERCENT OF YOUR DAILY CALORIE VALUE IS CONSIDERED LOW, AND 20 PERCENT IS CONSIDERED HIGH. WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT: CALORIE COUNT, SERVING SIZE, OR VITAMINS? ACCORDING TO DIABETES-EVERY-DAY-DOT-COM, SERVING SIZE IS THE MOST UNDERESTIMATED THING ON THE FOOD LABEL. REMEMBER, THREE SERVINGS MEANS THREE-TIMES THE CALORIE INTAKE. FINALLY, HOW MUCH SODIUM DO YOU NEED A DAY? 23-HUNDRED MILLIGRAMS! BUT AMERICANS TYPICALLY CONSUME MORE THAN THREE-THOUSAND A DAY! AIM FOR FOODS THAT HAVE FIVE OR FEWER PERCENT OF YOUR DAILY VALUE OF SODIUM. HEALTHY EATING FOR HEALTHY LIVING.
Return to index of stories...
PEOPLE OLDER THAN 50, AFRICAN AMERICANS AND THOSE WITH HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, DIABETES AND CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE SHOULD CURB THEIR SODIUM INTAKE TO 15-HUNDRED MILLIGRAMS A DAY.
ANOTHER TIP?
WOMEN SHOULD KEEP DAILY SUGAR INTAKE AT 24 GRAMS OR FEWER A DAY.
.MEN SHOULD STAY AT 36 GRAMS OR FEWER. ONE TEASPOON OF SUGAR EQUALS ABOUT FOUR GRAMS.

SUNSHINE TO RETURN
Clouds were in abundance for us on Friday. The skies had a dreary look, yes, but the sunshine will soon return!
The big question… Will it return this weekend? Well, let me take you through the changes and let you know.
We have two systems at play in our local weather pattern. First, high pressure is nudging into the state, and it's bringing low level clouds from the Atlantic to the area. Next is a piece of energy in the upper portions of the atmosphere that made its way over from Texas. It's also giving us added clouds, but they're in the high variety.
So we have clouds coming in from both the east and west. Thankfully, the system that came from Texas will move out by tomorrow afternoon, and guess what that means?
The sun is back!
Thus, we're going to call Saturday, Sunday, and Monday partly sunny. Morning lows will be around 60, and daytime highs - get ready - warming up to the lower if not mid 80s! Not only do we get the sun in full force, we get a warming trend, too.
But that's why we live in Florida, right?
As we go into Tuesday we'll see the clouds increase due to another cold front approaching. However, it's going to become disorganized and fall apart as it gets closer. That's been the trend so far this season, fronts completely dying before reach the region. This means no cold air and no rainfall.
Clouds? Yes, but only for Tuesday and Wednesday. After midweek the sun is back with a vengeance, and the warm temperatures continue.
Boaters use caution if you go out as winds will be coming from the E-NE at 15 to 20 knots.

A HOMELESS MAN--ACCUSED OF DISORDERLY INTOXICATION--IS THROWN HEAD FIRST

A FEMALE BUS DRIVER, AND SPIT IN A SECURITY GUARDS FACE.
MOMENTS LATER--OFFICER DERICK GILBERT IS SEEN ON THE VIDEO--ATEEMPTING TO

RIGHT INTO THE RAILING. FIELDS IS SENT OFF TO THE HOSPITAL, BEFORE GOING TO
JAIL---CHARGED WITH RESISTING WITHOUT VIOLENCE AND DISORDERLY CONDUCT.
SARASOTA CITY MANAGER TOM BARWIN---RELEASING THIS STATEMENT ON THURSDAY---
SAYING: WHAT I SAW ON THE VIDEOTAPE WAS VERY CONCERNING. I CONTACTED THE
POLICE DEPARTMENT TO ENSURE AN INTERNAL AFFAIRS INVESTIGATION IS OPENED
IMMEDIATELY. SWORN OFFICERS HAVE BEEN COUNSELED REPEATEDLY TO TREAT ALL
OTHERS WITH RESPECT AND DIGNITY AT ALL TIMES, EVEN UNDER TRYING AND
CHALLENGING CIRCUMSTANCES. ANYTHING LESS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND WILL NOT BE
TOLERATED.
SOT: ANOTHER DISAPPOINTING INCIDENT FOR THE SPD, BUT NOT SURPRISING GIVEN
THE CULTURE THAT EXISTS WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT.
OVER RECENT WEEKS, THE DEPARTMENT HAS MADE SEVERAL HEADLINES FOR RUN INS

FOR CHARGING HIS CELL PHONE AT A PUBLIC PARK.
THEN, JUST DAYS AGO--THE ACLU RELEASED CELL PHONE TEXTING TRANSCRIPTS,
INDICATING SOME POLICE OFFICERS CALL THEMSELVES BUM HUNTERS.
