[Costello:] It is 16 minutes past the hour. Welcome back. Police trying to figure out how a man got into the jets game on 911 with a stun gun, and he used it. The incident in the stands caught on tape. Take a look. This video first posted on deadspin.com. You can hear the stun gun buzzing when it goes off. Police in New Jersey arrested a 53-year-old South Carolina man. He was charged with three counts of aggravated assault and two weapons charges. No one was seriously hurt in this scuffle. But, how does that happen? I guess, well, it actually would be easy to sneak something like that in, right? Unless, they searched you.
[Romans:] I know. I think they go through all the bags
[Costello:] What if you didn't have it in a bag?
[Romans:] True. That's true.
[Costello:] Yes.
[Romans:] All right. I mean, you can't look for everything especially if somebody is going to pull something stupid. All right. Police in Utah looking for the heroes who lifted a burning car off a motorcyclist and saves his life. Police say a BMW was pulling out of a parking lot yesterday near Utah State University when it collided with a motorcyclist. The car and the bike ignited. The biker somehow stuck lodged beneath the vehicle. You can see people getting down to see him. They could see him down there. Bystanders were able to lift the car off, look at that, and pull 21-year-old Brandon Wright to safety. Now, he is in stable condition now. Police want to find the men and women who saved him so they could be honored at a city council meeting. Look all came together and pulled him out.
[Costello:] See, we went from the worst of humanity to the best of humanity.
[Romans:] I know. There's a woman in sandals, there's construction workers, there are a couple of guys in suits, just sort of everybody came and pulled him out. Glad he's OK.
[Costello:] Me, too. OK. Let's head to Atlanta to check in with Rob Marciano. He's in the Extreme Weather Center where, hopefully, there is no extreme weather to talk about.
[Rob Marciano, Ams Meteorologist:] No. You know, that video is amazing how everybody came together and everybody kind of scattered. I don't know if the
[Romans:] No. They were late for work, you know? I mean, you do your good Samaritan and you see he's OK.
[Costello:] Someone did call 911, though.
[Marciano:] Get somebody in there that knows what they're doing. Yes, guys. Temperatures in Texas today kind of you know, we were saying this all season long, but 107 in Dallas. Now, that wouldn't be so remarkable if this was the middle of July, but we're in the middle of September. It also wouldn't be so remarkable, well, it is remarkable because, one, today is going to be the 70th day this summer that they've reached the 100-degree mark, and that's a record Yesterday, they tied it at 69. 104 in Austin. There's obviously hope the fire situation but most of them are larger ones or at least are mostly contained. The winds are light, but these warm temperatures certainly adding insult to injury. There are some cooler temperature up to the north. Seventy-one degrees in Chicago, 84 degrees in New York City, 90 in Atlanta. We also have some fire issues across parts of California, some lightning there in through Vegas and the intermountain west and that threat will continue, as well. Heat here, some thunderstorms across parts of the Eastern Great Lakes today and through Upstate New York and through the flood areas of Eastern Pennsylvania as well, but these two cold fronts, really, they're the main weather story, I think, going forward, because we're going to a steep cool down. Temperatures will be 20 to 30 degrees cooler now or tomorrow than they were today. And some of this cooler air is going to bleed into Texas and we might even squeeze out a shower or two, but I wouldn't bet the bank on that, but temperatures will get cooler after we get through the next few days and 100-degree plus heat. Sixties and 70s, isn't that going to feel nice across much the eastern third of the country? You bet you. It's also going to help in pushing Maria out to sea, which has been causing some flash flooding across parts of Puerto Rico might affect Bermuda, as well. Very active hurricane season. We're into the we're through the Ms now, aren't we? And we really only have two direct impacts in the U.S. So, consider ourselves lucky. Guys, back up to you.
[Costello:] We do. Thank you, Rob.
[Marciano:] All right.
[Romans:] President Obama will spend the next two days in two key states trying to sell his jobs plan. Today's stop, Columbus, Ohio, John Boehner country. He then heads to North Carolina tomorrow. The president's proposal includes raising taxes on wealthy Americans, individuals earning more than $200,000. Couples making more than $250,000 a year would face caps on itemized deductions and some exemptions. The president urging lawmakers to pass it immediately.
[Costello:] And now, it's your turn to talk back on that big story of the day. Today's question, should Obama's jobs plan be funded by limiting tax deductions? You know, the jobs plan the president wants Congress to pass like right now, like, that doesn't look good. Yes. Republicans like parts of the plan, but they don't like how the president wants to tax the rich to pay for it. Mr. Obama wants to end tax loopholes for oil and gas companies, hedge fund managers, and let the Bush tax cuts expire. The biggest chunk, though, $400 billion, will come from limiting tax deductions on Americans making more than $200,000 a year.
[Barack Obama, President Of The United States:] We've got to decide what our priorities are. If we keep tax loopholes for all companies or do we put teachers back to work. Do we keep tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires or should we invest in education and technology and infrastructure? All the things that are going to help us out innovate and out educate and out build other the countries in the future?
[Costello:] It's deja vu all over again as is the republican response. This from Senator Jon Kyl.
[Sen. Jon Kyl,  Arizona:] Who is it, Mr. President, that are the first to hire coming out of recession? It's small business. So, the very people that we are asking to hire more Americans to put them back to work are the people who would be impacted by the taxes that the president talked about the other night.
[Costello:] So, the talk back question today. Should Obama's jobs plan be funded by limiting tax deductions? Facebook.comamericanmorning. Facebook.comamericanmorning. I'll read your comments later this hour.
[Romans:] All right. Up next, Wall Street bracing for more layoffs, and if you're thinking of applying to business school, why now, well, that might be a pretty good time. It's 22 minutes after the hour.
