officials say phillips began working at the school in 2006. officials tell us he is now suspended and will be fired. let's head to mercer county, where princeton police want you to take a good lack at this sketch of a man they say groped a woman on the street. according to investigators, he ran up to the woman and grabbed her from behind while she was working on spruce street. the man was caught on surveillance camera. you can watch from a distance and see him highlighted there running. the incident happened on the evening of april 12th. if you know anything, princeton police would like to hear from you. we have new details this morning about a philadelphia youth soccer coach, accused of raping one of his players. immigration officials tell nbc 10 the suspect was in the u.s. illegally. this week, police arrested francisco contreras on statutory rape charges. they say the teenager came to him looking for a job, but instead he talked her into having sex and gave her money. the girl was 14 years old at the time and became pregnant. prado contreras is a volunteer

coach. officials in philadelphia tell us all volunteers undergo background checks before they're allowed to use city facilities. it's unclear how contreras made it through the screening process. >> you're a coach, there's some expectation you're going to look after the kids. to violate that trust, that's pretty bad. >> police tell us they're unsure exactly how many victims may be link to the suspect. now, this arrest comes as trump administration is sending a strong warning to philadelphia and eight other sanctuary cities. in a letter, the department of justice is demanding that the city prove it is following federal immigration laws. if the city does not comply, it could lose federal grant money for local law enforcement. mayor jim kenney says philadelphia will stay a sanctuary city. that means officers will enforce laws, but not act as immigration agents. meantime, a pennsylvania state representative is introducing legislation aimed at stripping funding from sanctuary cities. >> it's up these mayors to reverse their sanctuary city

policies and comply with the federal law. and i think that's all that the letter is asking. >> if they get driven underground and they're victims to a crime or witnesses to a crime and they don't trust the police and won't come forward and give information, our city will be a lot less safe than it is today. >> the city has to respond to the trump administration by june 30th. now, in the wake of the warning, president trump is reassuring young people brought into the country illegally that they should rest easy about his immigration policies. those children are often referred to as dreamers. mr. trump says, quote, he is not after the dreamers, we are after the criminals, end quote. the president is making a big promise as he ends the nenears his first 100 days in office. he'll sign a tax reform bill on wednesday that will lead to massive cuts for individuals and businesses. and also, movement on health care reform and avoiding a government shutdown. some drivers in cumberland county have had a very expensive week. and now police are trying to

well, welcome back and happy saturday morning. grab the coffee and maybe the jacket and the umbrella today. our temperature trend today is not going to be a warm one. we're going to be generally in the upper 50s. i think we'll pulse right through the low 60s at one point this afternoon, but this is going to be a below-average day as far as temperatures are concerned out there. not a warm day, not by any stretch of the imagination. in fact, this is what we're going to be looking at. we're going to be looking today at scattered showers on and off throughout the day. maybe a few peeks of sunshine out there, but again, if we make it into those low 60s across the area, i think we'll be fairly fortunate. tomorrow actually improves. we thought tomorrow would be the wetter of the two days, not so much the case. we're basically lacking at temperatures that are going to be generally in those 50s, but even in philly, we're going to be looking at the low 60s. but you notice, we've taken the rain out of the forecast for

tomorrow. so we're going to be looking at mainly cloudy skies out there and conditions turn southward as we head into our monday and tuesday. that's when we get more rain into the area. but the good news is, we're going to be finishing off the week with lots of sunshine, and that means if you're going to be headed out there to the nfl draft, you're going to have great conditions. in fact, sweaty weather. i call it extra deodorant weather, rosemary, to end next week. >> i like that. that's a good way to put it. i think everybody can relate to that. thanks, tammy. today folks in southwest philadelphia will have a new place to enjoy the outdoors. bartram's mile will officially open this morning. city officials say this extension will connect southwest philadelphia to the city's park system. it's one of many planned projects to help rejuvenate the her. a free philly flash is ride

you know, it's supposed to be rainy on monday, not our saturday. well, the rain showers have pushed ahead very quickly. they're in today, not so much tomorrow. so tomorrow will be the drier of the two days. we have spotty showers around the area, especially south of philly, when you get into new jersey and delaware. so, gloucester, you're looking at some showers right now. clayton, the same for you. all of these are pressing off to the north and the east. let's go over to delaware. middletown, you're looking at some showers, and dover, you're looking at showers. there is more to come. the radar shows a whole lot of activity. it's lined up along a frontal boundary and we have several areas of low pressure. there's one you don't even see that's further off to the south and the west. they all kind of have to trek in our direction. and we're going to pick up some of the shower activity as they pass by, periodically, today. a little bit of a break tomorrow, and tomorrow night, monday, and tuesday, we will see more rain before we really start to kind of dry out. so our winds today, you can see that they're out of the north and the east. it's a little bit cooler regime, but not as cool as it is when we

get the east winds. temperatures starting off in the low to mid-50s. let's watch our hour-by-hour. here comes some of those showers roaring through. heaviest rain over the next three to four days is actually going to be in south jersey and delaware, just to the south of philly. we'll all get some rain, but that's where the heaviest will be. by this afternoon, it looks like we'll be into the upper 50s, lower 60s. and a lot of the rain will have come to an end. perhaps a spotty shower through the evening. again, most of it south of philly, across jersey and delaware. we get into tomorrow morning, we have the northeast winds, we'll start off in the 40s, make it up into the low 60s. again, more rain for all of you in delaware and south jersey. if you're in the lehigh valley, you probably think i'm crazy. you may even get some sunshine out there, but very little rain for you. and then it looks like this takes a little bit of a break through monday again, south of the area. but it really starts to build and lift through on tuesday. i think that's sort of the final passage of the heaviest of the rain. how much rain are we looking at?

this is going to run through tuesday morning. we'll have more tuesday afternoon. but allentown, you're looking at a tenth, 2/10 of an inch, versus 2.7 inches in cape may. a lot of these storms are projected to track further south of the area. in your neighborhood today, you're looking at 64 in reading. a few peeks of sunshine, 53 in bethlehem, 51 in westchester. we'll see clouds, perhaps an isolated shower. then we're going to head into haddenfield, you'll see 56. i think you'll see those scattered showers. you get out towards the shore, we'll see some scattered showers, as well, but plenty of cloud cover, 52 in atlantic city. and over into delaware, make it into the lower 60s. at times, we will be in the 50s, though, for much of the day. here is your ten-day on 10. it does improve, i promise you. so we're going to be looking at 61 today, 63 tomorrow. a bit more sunshine tomorrow. 62 on monday, with rain showers. rain showers on tuesday. they weren't in there a few days ago, but this is a pretty active

pattern. we hit 74 on wednesday. all of you at home, pay attention! because maybe a thunderstorm rolls through mid-day on thursday, but we're at 82. 85 on friday. 85 on saturday, 83 on sunday. so we finish really big, even though we're starting chilly. rosemary? >> we like it! thanks for that, tammy. okay, what's old is new again this weekend. that old vinyl making a comeback as more artists release new albums the old-fashion wade. we'll tell you about the way to get more people shopping in record stores.
