it's great for new yorkers. >> reporter: that poll showed no matter who wins, they holds a significant lead over republican frontrunner donald trump. now, bernie sanders has called for a debate with hillary clinton before that primary in late april. no word yet on if that will happen. we expect they'll bring it up this afternoon. back to you. jen: on the republican side, donald trump is doing damage control after making shocking comments about women and abortion last night. steve: linda schmidt live in columbus circle where protestors are speaking out against the presidential hopeful. >> reporter: good evening. tonight, donald trump continues to get slammed for the statements. some of the criticism from conservatives. there was a demonstration from a fairly large group of people. they held the demonstration right across the street from one

>> it's clear he hasn't thought very deeply about this issue. >> reporter: mallory is with susan b. anthony list in washington, d.c. >> there has to be a form of punishment. >> for the woman? >> has to be some form. >> most mainstream pro life activists and politicians strongly disagree with trump. they have, instead, supported punishment for doctors and clinics who provide abortions. >> it's never been the position that women should be punished for undergoing an abortion. >> reporter: after getting pummelled with criticism, his campaign released a statement reversing his position. it says in part that if abortion would become illegal, the doctor

responsible, not the woman. his national campaign spokesperson is doing damage control. >> the simple misspeak. it should have been the physician should have been punished, not the woman. >> when i say dump, you say trump. i can't hear you. dump >> trump >> dump >> trump >> reporter: officials and women rights activists rallied in the city in response to trump's comments. >> no self-respecting woman or man should support a presidential candidate that would punish a woman's right, a woman for exercising their constitutional right. >> reporter: eric enquist says it will not have any impact on the voters. >> the reason he's not prepared is because it doesn't matter. his voters don't really care if

issue, if he has fully thought out his positions. that's not why they're voting for him. he doesn't put a lot of effort into thinking these things through. >> reporter: in other news about donald trump, he tweeted out that he had met with the chair of the republican national committee and he did this just two days after reneging on his pledge that he made several months ago that he would support the republican nominee, no matter who the person is. however, he said just a couple of days ago he felt he was being treated unfairly by the rnc. after he met with the chair, he did say he had a very nice meeting and he was looking forward to bringing the party together and that it would happen. we'll have to wait and see. that's the latest from here. back to you. steve: thanks, linda. the other republican presidential hopefuls condemned the comment. john kasich questioned his presidential qualifications. >> donald trump is clearly not prepared to be president of the

steve: he criticized what he called trump's casual comments on the use of nuclear weapons overseas saying it is not a way a potential president should speak. he defended using a fork while eating his pizza saying his wife told him she was glad he learned to use a utensil. >> ted cruz spoke about wanting to be an actor when he was growing up. listen to what he had to say when asked who he disliked more, president obama or donald trump? >> if i were in my car and getting ready to reverse and saw donald in the backup camera -- i'm not confident which pedal i'd push. >> cruz said he was only joking and admitted to disliking the president's policies more. steve: brian park was a popular spot as temperatures climbed into the 70s. >> how long will the mild weather stick around? nick gregory has the answer. i don't think it will be that long.

one more day. it's it's going to come with a price. we will be dealing with rain and thunderstorms and colder weather over the weekend. today was lovely. we had temperatures 60s into the lower 70s. that's where we're at, midtown to the hudson valley and interior new jersey. we talked about cooler readings at the shore. you can see islip at 59 and 53 as you get out to montauk. there are showers off to the west. you see them on fox 5 sky guardian. these will get here later tonight as they advance towards us. the wind has been gusty and breezy as we expected out of the south to southwest. 15 to 20 sustained, but some of the gusts are reaching over 30 miles an hour. they'll stay breezy and mild tonight as the showers come in. you can see them off to the west on the satellite radar. not a lot of rain overnight, but you can see some showers and then tomorrow, again, occasional rain and notice what lights up later on in the afternoon or into the afternoon. scattered thunderstorms may appear. back in the lower 70s tomorrow.

evening. saturday, notice we're still clouds, breaks of sun. can't rule out a couple of showers and much colder towards sunday. 50s tonight with breezy conditions and showers will be arriving later on. steve: good deal. jen: thank you. three people were hurt when a gunman opened fire at a greyhound bus station in richmond, virginia. two state troopers and a civilian were hospitalized. no details yet on their conditions. we got word the gunman has died. the whole incident remains under investigation. well, at least seven police officers were killed when a car bomb exploded near a bus terminal in southern turkey. authorities say kurdish militants targeted a vehicle transporting police personnel. it damaged several cars and buildings in the area. in addition to the dead, 27 people were hurt, but half of them police officers.

sophisticated. the cyber war replaced the cold war. the breaches are the third certainty in life. >> reporter: twitter suspended the accounts which leaked the sheet which included the names, home addresses, phone numbers and working locations of the officers. investigators are looking into whether or not a uniformed laundry company might have been the source of the hack. third party vendor vulnerability is what it's called. right. but a subcontractor who has too much access into the systems of the organization can bring down another organization. and it could be because of a mistake made by one employee at a subcontractor where they click on the wrong link. >> reporter: new jersey transit confirmed it was a third party vendor who was compromised. they're looking into the breach. >> i don't think that means very much. just the information is out there.

so -- i think the cops can take care of themselves. >> reporter: as for the breach, it took place on a wednesday a couple of weeks ago. by saturday, in that three days time, it had been downloaded 300 times. new jersey transit at penn news. >> frightening moments for this morning. they had to be evacuated from ps odor. it came from a gas leak. none of the kids or staff were injured. steve: a floating source of fresh produce for new yorkers. >> the technology that's allowing the garden to bear fruit. steve: and how chipotle is trying to expand its fast food

on the sidelines to see what kind of numbers we get. this has been an outstanding month, the best of 2016. the dow is up a percent and a half year to date but up 7% for the month of march. we have our eyes on the 18,000 mark again. as we mentioned, big news out of chipotle. the chain, which has had a rough go, could be getting into the burger business. chipotle has filed a trademark application earlier this month for a burger chain called better burger. going from burritos to burger isn't a big stretch. they're invested in shop house, a southeast asian chain, and pizzeria locale in the midwest. the move to burgers is part of a diversification plan to help them recover from the recent food scare and the huge sales plunge it's been suffering from. >> tonight is a huge night for tesla. the electric car maker set to unveil the model 3 tonight at 8:30 pacific time in l.a.

car and fans are already lining up to order it sight unseen. the model 3 is expected to have a range of 200 miles when fully charged. and a base price of $35,000 before tax credits. that's all we know so far. overnight in california, people were waiting outside the tesla store to make a thousand dollars deposit to get on the waiting list. >> i want to be a part of the transition from gasoline to electric cars. i think it will be a fast transition, like vinyl to digital music. everyone is going to switch when it. >> reporter: the first won't be rolled out until a year and a half from now, december 2017. i hope one of the people see the unveil and they like what they put a down payment on. your hands on one. the waiting list. tesla himself got the guy off the waiting list. >> no car for you. this is the hot car to have. i hope people are happy with

steve: we know where the weather is going. we had a great day today. this is a weird week we're in the middle of. nick: through the next seven days, we'll see some strange changeable weather that's going to be moving through and, again, some big dips in temperatures coming our way and there is going to be some snow in the forecast. not a lot, but something we'll have to sort of keep an eye on for parts of the area as we get in towards the weekend and parts of early next week. 73, 49 today. no snow with that. beautiful day. sunshine. a couple of clouds. more of the clouds did appear this afternoon as we were expecting. the average, 55 for the high. 6:39 sunrise. the set is at 7:20. humidity, 45 percent. wind gusting over 25 miles an hour. clouds have been increasing and steady. tonight. that's going to lead to showers

more in the way of showers further to the west. as the wind continues out of the southwest ahead of the storm center that's heading towards the great lakes region, and the cold front that will be coming through. so again, the lines of showers, first batch here. second batch here. that's what we'll be dealing with as we head into tomorrow. here's the day planner. 60 out the door in the morning with showers scattered about. showers. we'll hit 74. watch the futurecast temps take us into the 60s tomorrow morning and right into the low and middle 70s tomorrow afternoon. we cool it down into saturday basically into the upper 50s. and watch the surge of blue coming down. that's the cold as we head into sunday. 30s for sunday morning and lower 40s during the day. showers with a cold front moving through. here's the second front that will bring the colder air the second half of the weekend. breezy tonight.

permanent food for us in the places we stop. we're thinking about interdependency and not just resilience, but regeneration and how to co-create and live together in a way where we're providing for ourselves. >> reporter: swale will be free and open to the public starting june 28th. you can get more details and keep track of the location around new york by visiting swale ny.org. in brooklyn bridge park, i'm baruch shemtov, fox 5 news. jennifer: we're always looking for that little piece of nature. steve: farm to table to the next level. why watch a movie in 3-d when you can see one in 4d? >> the movie theatre that wants to put you inside the action. steve: how a legendary dance company is introducing us to the

steve: moviegoers may want to check out a theatre in union square. jennifer: a look at the first ever 4-d theatre. this is exciting. >> reporter: it has all the senses. you can smell stuff. your seat's rocking? >>

remember when smell-a-vision was just a pipe dream? well, i don't have to be corny. it's actually happening. after receiving a positive response from audiences in japan and hollywood, 4-d has arrived in new york at one theatre only for now. that's the regal cinemas in union square. >> a night at the movies got more immersive. this is 4d x technology, designed to enhance the 3d movie experience. these chairs vibrate, pulsing back and forth, to reflect the action on screen. all right. this is my first 4d experience. we're going to watch the first 15 minutes of batman versus superman. here we go. >> reporter: air blasts from behind you and in front of you when you're watching an explosion. there's an option to turn on

plus there are environmental effects like wind. that was awesome. i thought it was really fun. your chair moves back or forward so you're seeing it from the camera's perspective. i enjoyed the 15 minute preview. i'm concerned about the full film. is there going to be movement? is it going to be distracting the entire time? >> no. no. i think -- the cool thing about 4d x technology, there are spurts throughout the movie where there might be movement in an action scene. there's fog and lightning that will happen on the exterior of the auditorium. >> reporter: looking ahead to summer blockbuster season, what are movies you think this would be perfect for? >> upcoming films that have been announced in 4d x are jungle

universal, and captain america civil war from disney as well. >> reporter: i definitely want to see jungle book in 4d. that should be awesome. there are smell effects. i didn't smell anything. the cost, 4d x comes with an $8 up charge on top of a regular ticket. it could put your total at around $30 a person. for families, that's going to be challenging. but -- jennifer: i heard it worked in l.a. because it put more people in the theatres when they did that. >> reporter: cinemas are doing anything they can. steve: going to the movies is a rarity. to make it an event makes sense. especially in new york, people aren't buying the massive soda and the massive popcorn the way they used to. they need to make more money on the tickets. you're getting a better experience. seems kind of fair. >> reporter: yes. one last thing, bring a jacket.

effects, i was getting cold. so -- steve: always a good idea. it's too cold. all right. good deal. thank you, simone. jennifer: show them the money. some of soccer's biggest stars want a raise. steve: and they all happen to be women. how members of the u.s. women's soccer team are fighting to make as much as men. jennifer: rapping about getting high. it's been going on for a year. can anything be done to stop artists from promoting drug use? lisa evers tackles the issue in

issues up to the foreand get enough people talking that there could be change. >> reporter: in a statement, the u.s. soccer federation wrote it had not seen the complaint but, quote, we're disappointed about the action. we've been a world leader in women's soccer and are proud of the commitment we've made to building the women's game in the united states over 30 years. i'm mac king, fox 5 news. steve: atlantic city will be broke by the end of the week. jennifer: governor christie won't let them declare bankruptcy. lidia curanaj has the plans of what to do next. >> reporter: governor chris christie is emphasizing again that he will not allow atlantic city to file for bankruptcy if it runs out of money. this comes a little more than a week before atlantic city faces a possible three-week government shutdown because it cannot make payroll. right now atlantic city is more than $400 million in debt. christie says this is happening because the city's leaders

when it comes to municipal salaries. the governor said a bankruptcy filing would hurt the credit ratings of towns all over new jersey. he reiterated he will only sign an aid package if it comes with legislation that would allow the state to take over a large part of the local government. he said if the bills are not passed, he will fight expansion of casino gambling to northern new jersey. >> i don't want this responsibility. i don't need the responsibility of running atlantic city on a micro basis on top of being the governor of the state of new jersey jersey. but it is my responsibility to make sure it gets done. and the senate president and i and 30 members of the senate have agreed that this is the only way to go. >> reporter: he added the city's mayor had once agreed to the

out of it because they plan to run for the democratic nomination for governor. the mayor has asserted it's cut $25 million from the budget. christie's response? that's like one guy with a bucket trying to bail out water off the titanic. jennifer: thank you. steve: brutal. thanks. jennifer: the hip-hop world has glamorized drug use for decades. steve: with our nation battling an addiction epidemic, it's time for artists to change their tune. lisa evers is talking about that on "street soldiers." >> reporter: more than 125 a day are dying from drug overdoses in this country. now some are wondering if popular music is promoting a dangerous climate where drug use is considered normal. i've got to say

the hot 100 chart with the single stay high. she wasn't the only mainstream mega star who captivated millions of fans and rose to the top of the charts. the video for the weekend's drug addiction wrapped up 500 million views. it. this pill addiction led to a fatal crash and a 5-1/2 year prison term. she says the wrong message is everywhere. >> for me, i can actually have a flashback of, you know, little wayne's song. and just feeling empowered that, like, oh, i'm doing this, and if

promoted. >> reporter: this song is part of a growing genre hip-hop known as trap music. the beats and hooks are as addictive as crack. but there are negative consequences on the street. >> we get a front row view of this every day. it's getting to a younger age. it's fashionable because they put some many creative names on it. like the molly, the drank. you name it, they got it. they market it to the youth. they're dying from it. >> reporter: it's not just hip-hop. the drug themes run through many genres of music. no one is advocating 17 -- censorship. we talk about it saturday night.

jennifer: are autism rates stabilizing? the number of children being diagnosed with the condition has been holding steady over the last several years. steve: joining us, dr. doris day, clinical associate professor at nyu medical center. that's good news. are you buying that the rates are stabilizing? >> well, on the good news front, it's nice to hear things aren't getting worse, but what it means is difficult to understand. the cdc monitor autism rates. in the 11 counties across the country where they're measuring rates in eight-year-olds, they don't see a difference.

but the problem is what are they capturing? who are they missing and who's getting help? when you look at the groups getting autism, minority communities are not being diagnosed properly, early enough or getting the services they need. and the rates are still alarming at one in 68. so the cdc isn't saying this should make us feel comfortable that autism is on the decline and we should forget about it. they're not seeing a change in the counties where they're measuring it. but that may be because they're diagnosing it earlier, more kids are getting in the system in some way, but the kids in the system aren't getting all the help they could be or should be getting. we need to have autism awareness. we need to understand better and look broader than the 11 counties across the country and see what's really going on. jennifer: the screening isn't reaching all demographics. >> exactly. steve: autism speaks says they think the numbers are underestimated. >> i think that's true. i agree with them. i think the cdc might agree, but they have to measure something somewhere.

attention to it. it's always great to keep the awareness high and aim to have greater measurements across greater counties in the country. steve: with a grain of salt for sure. a new study supports short course antibiotic treatment for lyme disease, but not all experts think this is the best option. >> i'm one of those experts. steve: that does not think that. >> exactly. this is a study out of the netherlands that was published in the new england journal of medicine, which is good. that's on the surface a good thing. it's a well done trial, looking at close to 300 people. here's a little bit of the glitch around it. this will set people who had a diagnosis for over two years. this isn't someone who's just diagnosed and determining how long to treat. these are people who have had it for a period of time, are in the chronic phase. in that phase, you don't know if it's still active chronic lyme disease or they have the infection. when we argue these things, all

the three arms of the study, one group got nothing. doctors observed them over 12 weeks. they found there was no groups. in all groups, some did better, some did the same and some didn't do any better or worse. so then all this tells me is we need to better understand more about lyme disease. is it active infection? blood? what other measures can we use? is three months long enough? they may need longer treatments to see improvement. three months is a period of time, but it may not be long enough. jennifer: it almost shows us what we don't know. >> we have to ask the right questions. we need to know if there's destruction, if there's active disease, what made the people get better, what didn't help the other group. and hopefully this will lead to better testing. the problem with lyme disease, it's clinical judgment on so many levels.
