Moments ago Maryland State Police identified those killed and confirmed the two survivors have now been released from the hospital. There is an investigation into w a plane and helicopter collided in mid air. Alison, both aircraft remain here on the scene and will be here overnight as the ntsb continues to investigate. The plane is just behind me. The helicopter wreckage is about a quarter mile the other way. Just announced the victims on the helicopter are, kristoffer parsons, 29 years old of westminster, maryland. William jenkins, 47yearold of morrison, colorado. 35yearold brendan mcfawn of cumberland, maryland. The survivors, home tonight, scott graeves of brookville, maryland and 75yearold Gilbert Porter of sandy spring, maryland. It is not a hot air balloon. It is an aircraft with a parachute. Thursday afternoon a small single engine plane was only a half mile from landing at Frederick Municipal Airport when it collided mid air with a helicopter. I heard the bang and i looked up and it was right there. Witnesses say the aircraft were both flying very low around 100 feet when it happened. Went out that way toward the monocacy boulevard he says the parachute deployed allowing it to land on a stand of trees. One of the pilots is in a tree right now. State police say the two men on the plane walked away from the crash one uninjured and the other with just a laceration. Were advised that another craft just went down. The helicopter quickly plunged to the ground. What polar couldnt believe was what he saw inside the helicopter seconds after the mid air collision. They were still alive because i could see their faces. They were grabbing on to whatever they could, i guess the window portion of this side of the chopper. Three people were found dead at the Helicopter Crash site. The faa says that aircraft was involved in a Training Exercise hen 2010 down. You cant imagine. You see a helicopter and its recommended that bad. Pretty shocking. The cause of the crash of course remains under investigation but i can tell you the lead investigator for the National Transportation safety board told me tonight that planes parachute sure did its job. Live in frederick, abc 7 news. Thank you. Stay with abc 7 and wjla. Com for updates on this developing news and good morning washington begins tomorrow morning at 4 30 a. M. Out of new york city tonight, a doctor tested positive for ebola. Dr. Craig spencer was working with Doctors Without Borders in western africa when he contracted the disease. He returned from guinea more than a week ago. Right now spencer is in isolation at Bellevue Hospital in manhattan. The hospital is a designated ebola center. The c. D. C. Dispatched an Ebola Response team to new york and they are tracing the doctors contacts to identify anyone who may be at risk. Weve been preparing for months for the threat posed by ebola. We have clear and strong protocols being scrupulously followed and were followed in this instance. Spencers fiance is also in quarantine at this hour but she is not showing symptoms we are told. In bethesda tonight a dallas nurse who also has ebola is improving. Nina pham is in good condition. She contracted ebola after treating thomas duncan, a man who died of the disease. Back here at home now this just in from fairfax county. A major decision from the school board. It passed a measure pushing back the start time for high School Students. Theres been a lot of debate about this issue but in the end the decision was nearly unanimous. Tom, how are parents responding . So far most of the parents ive talked to are very happy about this. Let me break this down for you. Right now a lot of high schools start around 7 20. Thats going to be pushed all the way up to between 8 00 and 8 10 in the morning. That said, most middle School Students are actually going to have to go to school earlier, around 7 30 for them. Elementary schools will stay the same. Those that do change time, it wont be more than ten minutes. Again, this is something most parents at least weve talked to so far, seem to support. Tonight elation from parents and students who say Later High School start times were a long time coming. After ten years of fighting for this i am very happy for all the kids in fairfax county. Robin shulen says the current start times have been difficult for her teen at south lake high. The way the kids body clocks are they just arent ready to get up in the morning and have a hard time falling asleep at night. Erin coopers family has fought for this since she was in second grade. She is now a senior at oakton high and says the start times have been rough. I would say i come home four to five days a week, take a nap after school, get up, do my home work, and go right back to bed. The new start times take effect next year though the vast majority of those who came out in favor of the measure that passed tonight, not everyone does. For the sake of your teachers, students, and parents, please no vote for the late start. A High School Counselor said this will put teens on the road at the height of rush hour plus it will make Extracurricular Activities go too late and hurt teens and teachers ability to work parttime jobs after school. Across the potomac in montgomery county, this has been a big issue as well, but far it hasnt happened in large part over concerns over how much it will cost. Here in fairfax it is said it will cost about 5 million because they have to buy new buses to make it work. Tom, thank you. Happening now, the university of maryland is dealing with several confirmed and suspected cases of viral meningitis. The school has not said how many students are sick. Viral meningitis is less severe than bacteria meningitis but can still cause severe headaches, fevers, and nausea. We spoke with one student who said her Fraternity Brother is among those who are sick. He woke up with a really severe sore throat and he was aching all over his body. And he didnt work out. Viral meningitis is highly contagious. One can get sick simply by sharing cups and eating in common dining areas. Umds Health Center is treating students and informing others on what to do if they experience symptoms. Well turn to the weather because skies cleared out really just in time for some of you to see the partial solar eclipse. And we have a first look at the forecast. Steve . Timing is everything and it worked out perfectly for some of you. Others not so much. Earlier today, just around sunset, this is from david abbou in stafford.

So much going on. A forecast you wont want to miss. A busy weekend indeed. Thank you. Well, the latest man to scale the white house fence will be undergoing a mental evaluation. A judge ordered Dominic Adesanya held without bond until the screening is complete.

Hes done it before. He didnt get that close. He didnt cross the fence. He was at the gate. He wanted to talk to the president to tell the president about his situation. Adesanya faces multiple charges including assaulting two guard dogs there. The secret service says the dogs were checked out by a vet and are now back on duty. Last month, youll remember another jumper made it inside the white house before being stopped. We have new information tonight about the man who killed a canadian soldier and went on a shooting rampage inside parliament. Today police say the shooter had drug problems, a criminal record, and was a recent convert to islam. But there are lots of questions that may never be answered. Canadian authorities were forced to shoot him, dead. This dramatic video shows bystanders scrambling as Michael Zihaf Bibeau races toward Canadas Parliament with a small caliber hunting rifle. This picture, authentic but from an unknown source, shows him up close yesterday with that weapon. Police said zihaf bibeau came to ottawa earlier this month to get a passport. His mother telling authorities her son wanted to travel to syria. Yesterdays rampage may have been a result of him not getting the travel document. I think the passport figured prominently in his motives and his what was going on inside his head but i think it was central to what was driving him. Canadian authorities said they have 93 citizens under investigation or surveillance as possible terrorists. Zihaf bibeau may have had extremist views but he was not on that watch list. And we have known that he wanted to travel to syria had we known he wanted to travel to syria he certainly would have been. Abc news has learned he crossed into the u. S. On four separate occasions. Canadians and u. S. Officials are trying to retrace his steps to find out where he went and who he met with. Prime minister Steven Harper said canadians would not be intimidated by terrorists. We will be vigilant but will not run scared. And canadian Officials Say there is still a lot to learn about how and why Michael Zihaf Bibeau turned to radicalism.

The air bags were made in mexico and Washington State by a Company Called takata and it is now the focus of a criminal investigation. This is about as severe as it gets. When you have an air bag designed to protect you that can explode into shrapnel and kill you this is a very extreme situation. The problem is the air bag inflaters can send shards of metal flying. At least four deaths are linked to the defect. So far cars affected include honda, toyota, nissan, mazda, eneral motors, ford, chrysler, b. M. W. , and mitsubishi.

I was going to say, i have no idea. Hey, a gift from their running back. Wait till you hear jay gruden talk about his quarterback. Tech and miami duke it out in blacksburg. The duke of earl. Alison, remember duke of earl . Oh, yeah. Coming the last couple days we watched rg iii taking snaps and working hard to get back in game condition. This afternoon we listened to jay gruden say colt mccoy will be the redskins starter until rg 3 comes back. Gruden said he wont make a decision on robert being active or inactive until 7 30 monday night. Now i assume like so many others that colt will be the guy for at least one game maybe two. But then jay gruden made the speculation about rg iii even worse when he said this. Right now it looks like colt will be the starter. Were trying to work robert into the lineup and trying to get him reps to get him ready to go because i ultimately when its all said and done when roberts healthy roberts the starter. You understand that . Roberts the starter. Colt is not the starter. Colt could be the starter monday night but when roberts healthy hell be the starter. Right . Wow. Lets go to dallas where Demarco Murray has become the first running back in nfl history to start the season with seven straight 100yard gains. His offensive line is taking great pride in that. The 26yearold running back bought each of his offensive linemen a 25 1 2inch imaam with 1300 either. You know those guys will be stoked to keep the 100yard streak alive. We want to continue to win. If running the ball will help us continue to win well continue to run the ball. If by running the ball well get demarco another game at 100 yards thats what you want to do. It stems from wanting to win, the first priority. Thursday night football in blacksburg, virginia miami against virginia tech. All canes in the first half. 24 straight points.
