These homes were built in 1860. They didnt have fire walls like more modern complexes. The residents escaped, though one firefighter does have minor injuries. The Frederick Fire Department says only two of the units were currently occupied. The red cross is helping those families find temporary housing. Turning to the weather now, like a tale of two completely different days all wrapped up in one outside. During the cold, windy weekend people were bundled up this morning like folks we found in Dupont Circle but once the sun came out things warmed up and calmed down rather quickly. What should we expect tomorrow for election day . Chief meteorologist doug hill has a first look for us. There is a big difference between northwesterly winds this time of year and southwesterly winds which bring the warmer temperatures. Lets get you started with a look across our area. The future clouds and sunshine and all across the city right now, the sun goes down in a little over three minutes. Just a few clouds, a little blue sky overhead. Temperatures are very comfortable at this hour. Still holding in many sections in the 60s. 62 in washington. 59 in frederick. And 62 degrees right now at quantico. Well continue cool this evening. By late tonight well be in the mid 50s with partly cloudy skies and then looking forward to election day it is going to be fine. You can see the clouds are well to the west. Well get a couple clouds at times the next few days but no rain. It is going to be downright pleasant for the day tomorrow. Our forecast for election day is simple. Partly sunny to mostly sunny. Temperatures close to 70 degrees. Alison . Very nice, doug. Thanks. We are now just hours away from election day. For d. C. Residents that means something thats a bit of a rarity. A hotly contested mayoral race in the general election. Three candidates are sparring to succeed mayor vincent gray. D. C. Bureau chief sam ford joins us live from the potomac avenue metro station in southeast with the lastminute push and really what makes this years election so unusual. Sam . Indeed, alison. This was one of these elections where it is actually a contest which is extremely unusual for a general election in d. C. For some reason this evening theyre coming to the potomac avenue metro station. You can see candidate David Catania right there with his forces. And behind you see the signs of Muriel Bowser. She has not shown up here yet but will be here politicking, as well. This is a big deal here in the city. By this time late tomorrow night we should know who the new mayor will be. When it looks like this in front of the board of elections, the contest is on. For legalizing marijuana, to considering more than a dozen candidates for office. At the top, mayor. Muriel. Why . Because she is fresh. Catania. Still debating. What do you think . Probably catania. Republican turned independent David Catania, Council Member was d. C. s first openly gay, nondemocrat mayor. Theyre tired of the cronyism and the corruption and the lack of urgency. They know we can do better. Polls show him behind but some suggest not far behind Muriel Bowser the councilwoman who won the democratic primary. In every neighborhood across all eight wards and the District Of Columbia talking about the future. Out campaigning today in her yellow convertible former Council Member carol schwartz, her fifth try for mayor, trailing in the polls and saying, even if she loses i will never regret it, because i know i will have tried to do what needs to be done for our city. Unusual this time, federal endorsements. The president endorsed bowser. Former president Clinton Karl Racine for d. C. Attorney general. Former hss secretary sebelius doing robocalls for Council Candidate khalid pitts. Polls open at 7 00 a. M. Tomorrow. And back live here you can see there are bowser folks here. There are people with her campaign. And then the catania folks are all over the place. The candidate, David Catania, himself. One thing you know if you are a d. C. Resident youve been getting robocalls and paper. These are all of the various things on hard card board that have come to your home here in the city if you live here. Ive never seen so much paper in an election. Maybe thats one good thing about the end of it. Maybe we wont get as much of this. Reporting live from southeast washington, sam ford, abc 7 news. Your mail will slow down as of tomorrow, sam. Thank you. Well, in maryland both candidates are turning to their Party Political stars in their final campaign push. Right now First Lady Michelle Obama is in baltimore campaigning for democrat and current leon panetta governor Anthony Brown. Over the weekend, it was new jersey governor chris christie, stumping for browns opponent larry hogan. Tonight on abc 7 news at 6 00 our Maryland Bureau chief brad bell breaks down the final hours of the race that some polls show will come down to the wire. Voters in two Northern Virginia communities will be asked tomorrow to make decisions that could impact the future of transportation in Northern Virginia. In one of those races voters wont be asked about an issue but rather about a candidate. Northern Virginia Bureau chief Jeff Goldberg is live in alexandria tonight with an explanation and look at nc state. Well start in Fairfax County war good chunk of the transportation funding would actually be for walking. More squawks. An issue they have here along route one in ail exandry as the sidewalks are there and then abruptly end forcing people to either walk down the shoulder of that very narrow shoulder of that busy road or perhaps even crossing route 1 to find sidewalks on the other side. We saw someone do it just a few moments ago. Extremely dangerous. They certainly dont want that to happen for pedestrians. Over in arlington it is a different debate. As john and allen house battle for a seat on the Arlington County board one issue has dominated the campaign, the proposed street car along columbia pike. I think the street car is the right investment for our region. It is not the wisest use of our transit dollars. Whistad defeated howzer last spring with the republican backed opposition to the street car fueling his win in heavily democratic Arlington County. When you look at the success that arlington has had as a community, its really been built upon these investments made in transit. Its really emblematic of some of our Spending Priorities that have gone awry over the last few years in our county. Big money projects are also on the ballot in Fairfax County where voters will choose whether to fund a 100 million bond for transportation projects, the first part in a larger 1. 4 billion plan for the next six years. 16 million would be set aside for road improvements like recon figuring lanes at 123 and reat falls street in mclean. 6 million would go toward bike and trail improvements. Another 78 million would pay for pedestrian fixes. The county wants plenty of Walking Access to upcoming metro stations for phase two of the silver line and to fill in areas where the sidewalks end, like route 1 in alexandria. I think thats a good idea. Its important for all of us. I dont know if you can see it, it is a little bit dark. There is a gentleman walking in the middle or along route 1 here. Obviously a dangerous situation in areas where you do not have sidewalks. Again, voters will be asked about that tomorrow. In arlington, voters will also be asked about addressing transportation bonding. 60 million on the ballot tomorrow for transportation projects in arlington including upgrades and improvements to metro. Candidates are certainly hoping the big senate races and house races across Northern Virginia will help fuel voter turnout. Live in Fairfax County, Jeff Goldberg, abc 7 news. Thank you, jeff. Now, abc 7 has the tools you need to make informed decisions at the polls. Get to know the candidates and the issues where you live right now on our website wjla. Com. And, of course, well have live coverage tomorrow for you once the polls close. Well take a closer look at the races and the outcomes that matter to you.

Alison snveragets leon, new at 5 00 now, a womans body found burned in a southeast home and tonight family members of the mother of three are breaking their silence as abc 7 learns her death was no accident. Homicide detectives are now looking into Latroya Smiths death. Her burned body was found this weekend inside a vacant building on langston place in outheast washington. Jen, what are your sources telling you about this . Alison, this was a case of murder. Here is the vacant town home. This is as far as we can go. As you can see, its still taped off. Theres been a Police Officer in front of that door around the clock since her body was discovered. Several people have told us as news begun to spread that theyre in shock. One person telling us she was at a party in this area this past weekend. Her family, unbelievably, incredibly devastated. It began sunday morning before 6 00. A womans lifeless body was found inside this vacant town home on langston place in southeast. It appeared someone had set her on fire. For hours, detectives worked to identify the woman. Last night, the family of 26yearold Latroya Smith said they got the call. This is too, too much for a mother to handle or any of us. A cousin spoke on behalf of the family beset with grief. Smiths death was no accident. Sources tell abc 7 news it was murder. Smith was shot and then set on fire. Why . No one in her family knows. That was uncalled for, how they, you know, tortured her. She was never a violent person. She loved to party and have fun. She loved family. She loved everything there is with living. Smith, who graduated from boulleau high school, was a mother to three boys. She had several siblings. However, today it was her own mother whose utter sadness ran so deep she was beyond con solling. She cant breathe. Thats all she knew was that little girl. That was her partner. No matter what they went through in life, whenever they needed each other, they were there for each other. Now curtis says the family can only play the community will be there for them and for smith and help find a killer who so violently ripped all of their lives apart. As a human being i dont think anybody deserves that at all. I just hope that whomever did this is brought to justice, for her moms sake. Now, back here live, police here on the scene. Soon as we get the official release from d. C. Police which should happen this evening they will announce and up to 25,000 reward for information leading to whomever is responsible for this.

People arrive here in maryland in april and said she didnt know she was supposed to get vaccinated for school. The final deadline for getting the vaccinations for things like chickenpox and meningitis was last friday. Clinics are packed today. Here at the mary center we have a lot of kids who are new immigrants so the vaccine schedule is different in other countries in which they are coming from. Most of the children theyre seeing are kindergarteners or 5th to 7th graders. This doctor says her staff is getting these children in for vaccinations and its a big winwin situation. The families will definitely bring them back to get vaccinated, and so its an opportunity to take care of other medical issues. The rules are rigid for parents and students the School System says. Theyve given enough time to do what is required and parents we talk with say its a matter of health and they understand. I think its a great idea. All right. We lost the signal. Thank you for that report, horace holmes, reporting from adelphi. Lets talk about the weather. Sounds like a decent week ahead. In adelphi and all across the area tomorrow gorgeous with sunshine, a few clouds, near 70 degrees. Lets get started on this monday evening. This is a live shot from national harbor. Not much daylight left. Sun went down at 5 05. Well see a partly cloudy evening. Temperatures will turn cooler. Were not going to have frost and freeze. The reason, a few clouds. But most importantly, a change in the wind direction from northwest that brought in really cold, windy stuff to southwest. Right now look at the dew point temperature. The measure of moisture in the air is 20 degrees. That is really low. It tells us how dry the air is right now. So not even any dew on the grass tonight or very little at all. 62 Reagan National right now. 59 frederick. 62 fredericksburg. 57 degrees in easton. Temperatures across the northeast, eastern canada, the early winter feel. Certainly the early winter look with snow on the ground across maine and Prince Edward island and all the way back into quebec. So snow from the coastal storm. Everybody else enjoying a fair amount of sunshine. Very mild temperatures for a couple days. A coldront will change all that but not until thursday. So in the meantime, we expect very pleasant conditions. The numbers out here on the screen indicating how much warmer it is now than it was this time yesterday. Of course, t winds are much lighter too. 11 degrees warmer at Reagan National. 14 degrees warmer at charleston. 19 degrees warmer in asheville, north carolina. Just a couple days ago it snowed there as well. What were looking at for the evening hours is High Pressure continued in control of the weather. It will slide eastward. Already the circulation, around us, is bringing us southwesterly winds. Its also holding a lot of the main cloudiness and cold front back a bit. But over the next couple days, the high will move out. Winds will continue out of the southwest with warmer weather and will open for the advance of the storm system and cold front. Likely to bring us rain and maybe an isolated thunderstorm as we move through the day on thursday. As far as what will happen for election day, it is going to be nice around yaret. In fact, for the metro area we are calling for temperatures in the upper 60s to near 70 degrees. That is going to be the story through the day tomorrow. Just a few clouds in the forecast. It is going to be one of those days where, gosh. North and west well see the numbers still climb through the 60s. Going to be very comfortable. 68 degrees in martinsburg. 69 in winchester. Charles town, West Virginia 68 degrees. A little further south we might, just might pick up some temperatures closer to 70 or 72 like culpepper and in fredericksburg as well. Moving forward we expect the calm, quiet weather to last around here until we hit thursday. Thursday, though, with the cold front, showers and the possibility of a thunderstorm in the area as well. So what well find here on future cast, just some bands of clouds tonight and tomorrow but plenty of sunshine coming through. Comfortable temperatures for the afternoon hours. 3845 overnight. And then as we head through the next couple days, were expecting beautiful conditions here with partly cloudy skies. Well give you one more look at our election day forecast here. That calls for sunshine. Light southwesterly wind. Temperatures climbing close to 70 degrees. Heres the rest for you. 69 to 70 on wednesday. Showers, isolated thunderstorm thursday. Clearing, breezy, and much cooler. Seasonabley so. Kind of a november feel to the air as we head through friday, saturday, sunday, and even into monday of early next week. No big storms. Thats good news. Keep it that way for a while. Thank you. Meanwhile, you may be seeing double tonight. On dancing with the stars the seven remaining couples take on a famous pairs theme.

The ship exploded and crashed during a test flight on friday killing one pilot. New at 5 00 tonight well go inside the investigation. Moments before virgins 60foot spaceship 2 broke apart over the Mojave Desert investigators say the 39yearold copilot Michael Alsbury who died in the accident unlocked the rocket ships wings called feathers. After it was unlocked, the feathers moved into the deploy position and two seconds later we saw disintegration. The National Transportation safety board has not yet determined the cause of the crash, but observers say deploying the feathering system before reaching the right speed suggests human error may be at play. I dont think we should point the finger at Virgin Galactic just yet. Its an experimental flight. There are risks with that. Investigators hope to learn more from pilot peter siebold, who survived, parachuting to safety, before being taken to a hospital for treatment. Virgin galactic is offering to refund the 250,000 paid per person for the hoped for future commercial flights. That group of 700 includes celebrities like angelina jolie, brad pitt, katy perry, leonardo dicaprio, richard branson, the man behind Virgin Galactic says safety has guided every decision the company made in the past decade. I find it slightly irresponsible that people whon nothing about what theyre saying can be saying things before the ntsb makes their comments. While the test flight recorded a tremendous amount of data, federal investigators still say it could take as much as a year to find out fully what caused the crash. For abc news, los angeles. A preliminary report from the National Transportation safety board is revealing some new details about a deadly Helicopter Crash at frederick municipal airport. The report shows the helicopter was cleared for take off about two minutes before it collided with an airplane that was cleared to land. Two men were killed in the crash last month. The report also indicated the air Traffic Controller told the airplane pilot there were three helicopters below the plane in the traffic pattern. The pilot said he had only two helicopters in sight.

A ruling is that police cannot ask you for the password of your phone, but they can use your fingerprint to access the device. Diane cho is live at our newsroom with the objections this is facing. We have learned, since a judge ruled on this case, that the Virginia BeachCommonwealth Attorney house office is appealing it. The defendant is not required to provide a fingerprint to access the phone until there is a ruling in the Virginia Court of appeals. Whether it is your pictures or email, you can learn a lot about a person through their phone. To protect that information, apple started allowing users to use a fingerprint to unlock a phone as a form of security, instead of typing in a passcode. Recently, a Circuit Court judge in Virginia Beach ruled there is a difference between the two. A criminal defense attorney in alexandria disagrees. Regardless of whether you unlock using the key of a fingerprint or of a numeric code, that is simply a lock. That is simply unlocking it. The actual information that is on it beyond the lock is protected. Prosecutors are trying to force a defendant accused of strangling his girlfriend to unlock his phone, because there may be video that could be used as evidence. The judge ruled that giving a bigger print is similar to providing dna, whereas providing a pass code could violate fifth amendment rights against selfincrimination. As technology fans, we should keep up with the law. Either it is numeric, a fingerprint, a password to open up an email account it should be the same. A spokeswoman for the Commonwealth Attorneys office said the officers had a search warrant, but prosecutors could not access the phone. I think they should use the past code but not the fingerprint. I think it is the same thing. Not know ifrs do the suspect in the Virginia Beach case had password and fingerprint access. Prosecutors would still not have access to his information if so. Every thing is on hold until the ruling in this case. And now to a consumer alert. Will pay a record 100 million fine to the u. S. Government for overstating gas mileage. A twoyear investigation found the korean automakers inflated figures by an average of six mpg for 13 models.

Everybody is fired up about what happened yesterday. It was not a total disaster. The entire day was a disaster in minnesota from the bus crash on the way to the game to the Football Game itself, in which the redskins had breakdowns offensively and defensively. You are going to find out a lot about this ballclub over the last seven weeks. Today at redskins park, it was a whole lot of soulsearching. Where do you begin . Take your pick. How about the defense, which gave up 29 points . You cannot point your finger at one person. You cannot point your finger at one coach. And you give up 2 drives in the second half, i think it is a total team effort. I think there is promise overall for the first game back in quite some time. I think he did some good things. Of an espnhe subject pregame report which claimed he alienated the locker room. He today acknowledged that the drama may have had an effect. We have some fragile egos here. These are young guys trying their best. They read the paper and nobody likes them. They are alienated. It does not seem right. As a Football Player and an nfl Football Player, playing here, you have to expect it. Every Football Players trade he has to have is, you have to be thick skinned. Midterm grade . 36. That is the bottom half of the league, so it is probably a d. The good news no serious injuries from the pregame bus accident. We were 4 tire rotations from driving off a cliff, but we are ok. And there are still seven games to play. I want to see our guys fights through it, see who the competitors are, and try to get this turned around. They have to settle on some guys and let them go.
