It's a law important to remember as the new school year gets underway. When a school bus is stopped with its flashing red lights, traffic in both directions must stop, for obvious safety reasons. In some areas, failure to do so can land you behind bars. That’s exactly where some frustrated parents would like to see the people they've filmed as they rush past their kids' busses. And a13-year-old had just finished swimming in a Florida creek when an alligator lunged from the water and bit him. Not only did this kid not freak out - Les Trent says he batted the critter away and then calmly called for help. Plus, as a dispatcher she handles emergency calls all day long. However, one call came from someone she knows very well. It was her little boy telling her, their house was on fire. And there’s no quitting for this lady! She's a maternity ward nurse who delivers baby after baby. However, one little girl born more than twenty years ago turned out to be extra special. She's now her daughter-in-law!

Donald Trump's running mate J.D. Vance is causing a stir - by trying to criticize Kamala Harris' big CNN interview by posting an infamous word salad moment from a Miss Teen USA pageant.  What he says he didn't know about is, all the mockery the beauty queen faced 16-years-ago made her contemplate ending her life. Now as Ann Mercogliano reports, she's not happy Vance has brought it back in the headlines. And he was a popular dog breeder known for his Doberman puppies. Now he's been found dead, and ten of his puppies are missing. It's believed he was targeted by someone who wanted to sell the dogs which cost $4,500 apiece. Now as Les Trent reports, other breeders are jittery thinking they could be next. Plus, she lost everything in that historic flood that devasted Connecticut.
