Michelle first at 4 00, he threated his son and blow up buildings across montgomery county. Now he is behind bars. At the center of it all, anger over a child custody fight. Montgomery county reporter kevin lewis was first on the scene for us on this story. He is live now from one of the Daycare Centers that was at the center of this terrible situation. Explain to us why it was targeted, kevin. Kevin well, michelle, it was terribly frightening situation. Police certainly heeded the warning. The mans 3yearold son attended class here at the m. S. L. International Child Care Center along cloper road in georgetown. The regional director of the center telling me the man whose name has not been released, saying he was notorious for harassing and bullying the teachers here. The man also according to police threatened to harm a Circuit Court judge, plus blow up the 51 Monroe Building in downtown rockville, which houses montgomery cou child custody offices. Law enforcement sources say this father and estranged husband works for a Propane Company and had access to tanker trucks. Officers scoured the country, cornering the man along falls road near i270 in rockville. The bomb squad used a remote controlled robot to search the mans black volkswagen sedan for explosives. That robot opened car doors. The trunk, and scanned the underbelly before an allclear was given. Allegedly he may be claiming that he is not eligible for a tax return as he may be behind in Child Support payments. Kevin now daycare staff here say this mans 3yearold son is an absolute delight but out of fear for future threats they decided to remove the child from their program. We are live in georgetown, im kevin lewis, abc7 news. Michelle kevin, thank you. Maryland state pol speeding corvette changing lanes on i270 crashed last night, killing two men in the car. It happened just before 10 00 p. M. In the northbound lanes near baker valley road. Police say the corvette clipped a slower car and then lost control. Crashing through a guardrail. And striking several trees. The driver and passenger were pronounced dead at the scene. Q it was a chaotic scene. A man shoots two of his brothers and sets a town home on fire in herndon. Then in a standoff the officer fired his gun. The Fairfax County police named him today as lance guckenberger. This is the third time that officer has been involved in a shooting incident since joining the department 16 years ago. He was cleared of wrongdoing in the previous incidents. Januarys shooting of Mohammad Azim doudzai remains under investigation. Police say doudzai was armed with a knife and stopping officers from reaching a burning home. Officer guckenberger is a member of the Fairfax County special operations division. Michelle breaking news right now. We are awaiting a News Conference from embattled attorney general Jeff Sessions. This is a live look at the podium where he is expected to speak. This all comes amidst increasing calls for his resignation over the ties to russia and what he told congress during confirmation hearings. President trump, though, says he has total confidence in sessions. That opinion, though, may be in the minority. For the good of the country, attorney general sessions should resign. I think the attorney general should further clarify his testimony and recuse himself. Michelle democrats say sessions should resign. Many republicans say he should at least recuse himself from the investigation into the Trump Campaign ties to russia. That is after it was confirmed sessions twice talked to russias president ial campaign. Something he denied during confirmation hearings. I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign and i did not have communications with the russians. Michelle democrats say he lied under oath. Republicans say he needs to clarify with some saying the meeting could have been in his capacity as a senator, not as a Trump Campaign surrogate. That last possible scenario is doing little, though, to slow calls for attorney general sessions to resign. Mike carterconneen joining us live outside the department of justice where a rally wrapped up a short time ago. Mike . Mike michelle, this protest was organized by move on and other progressive groups. It attracted a few hundred protesters across the region, plus a few members of congress. Even as President Trump defended the attorney general today saying he did not think it necessary for him to recuse himself from the investigation, these protesters along with some are demanding that Jeff Sessions resign and congress select an independent Bipartisan Commission to investigate the alleged ties between the Trump Campaign and russia. They say calls from Republican Leaders for sessions to recuse himself are not enough. I think he needs to at minimum recuse himself. But i think what is best for him, the department of justice, the trump administration, and the American People is for him to resign. Mike coming up at 5 00, we will show you what happened with a man, a counterprotester started heckling maryland congressman haskins during his remarks at the rally. Mike carterconneen, abc7 news. Q thank you very much. We want to take a closer look at this with chief it will chief Political Correspondent scott thuman. This is the second time one of his cabinet members has possible ties to russia. Scott that is the Michael Flynn had to step down after the president expressed confidence in him and it was revealed he had conversations and misled the Vice President about those conversations he had had with the counterpart from russia. So now what we are dealing with is whether or not Jeff Sessions while a senator and possibly as a surrogate for the Trump Campaign had conversations that might have been not only improper but omitted during that testimony where he was under oath at his confirmation hearings. What took place during those conversations . Were they casual . Did they have any sort of implication as to what may happen between russian and u. S. Relations if donald trump were to win . Of course, he did. A couple other factors. We have heard from President Trump a couple hours ago. He expressed confidence, as you said. He said he was unaware that the conversations had taken place between Jeff Sessions and a Russian Ambassador. Of the house paul ryan who tried to explain this off. Lets listen to Jeff Sessions. He is coming to the podium now. Attorney general sessions welcome to the department of justice. Jodie, thank you for being with me. He is my chief of staff. He has been almost 20 years in the department of justice. Let me share a few thoughts. First, about the comments that i made to the committee that have been said to be incorrect and false, let me be clear. I never had meetings with russian operatives or russian intermediaries about the Trump Campaign. And the idea that i was part of a, continuing exchange of information during the campaign between trump surrogates and intermediaries for the russian government is totally false. Senator franken asked me at the hearing. That is what got my attention as he noted it was the first, just breaking news. It got my attention. That is the question i responded to. I did not respond by referring to the two meetings. One very brief after a speech. And one with two of my senior staffers, professional staffers with the Russian Ambassador in washington. Where no such things were discussed. In my reply to the question my replay to the question of senator franken was honest and correct as i understood it at the time. I appreciate that some have taken the view that this was a false comment. That is not my intent. That is not correct. I will write the Judiciary Committee tomorrow, to explain this testimony for the record. Secondly, at my confirmation hearing, i promised that i would do this. If a specific matter arose where i believe my imparality might impartialality would be questioned i would consult with ethic officials regarding the most appropriate way to proceed. Close quote. That is what i told them at the confirmation hearing. I have been here just three weeks today. A lot had been happening in the threeweek period. I wish i had more of my staff on board but we are still waiting on confirmation for them. Much has been done. Much needs to be done. But i did and have done as i promised. I have met with senior officials shor arriving here. We evaluated the rules of ethics and recusal. I have considered the issues at stake. In fact, on monday of this weak, we set a meeting with ania to a final decision on with an eye to a final decision on this question. On monday we set that meeting today. So this was the day that we planned to have a final discussion about handling. I asked for the candid and honest opinion about what i should do about investigation. Certain investigation. And my staff recommended recusal. They said that since i had involvement with the campaign, i should not be involved in any campaign investigation. I have studied the rules and considered their comment and evaluation. I believe those recommendations are right and just. Myself in the matter that deal with the Trump Campaign. The exact language of that recusal is in the press release that we will give to you. I have said this. I have now decided to recuse myself from any existing or future investigations of any matter relating in any way to the campaign for president of the united states. I went on to say, this announcement should not be interpreted for confirmation of the existence of any investigation or suggestive of the scope of any such investigation. Because we in the department of justice resist confirming or denying the very existence of investigation. So, in the end, i have followed the right procedure. Just as i promised the committee i would. Attorney general should do. If proper decision, i believe, has been reached. So i thank you for the opportunity to make those comments. And would be pleased to take a few questions. Reporter to clear up confusion, could you clear up the september 8 meeting about who was there and what was discussed with the Russian Ambassador . A. G. Sessions the Russian Ambassador sent a staffer to my office. I did not see him. Asked for a meeting, as some of the ambassadors were doing. And we set up a time as we did, as we normally did. We met with him. Two of my senior staffers were there. Maybe a younger staffer, too. And they both retired army colonels. Not we listened to the ambassador. And what his concerns might be. Michelle there you have attorney general Jeff Sessions responding to new revelations about his ties to russia. The big headline to come out of this, him announcing he will recuse himself from all matters dealing with russia when it comes to the Trump Campaign. When we look at this, i think the big question is, is this over . Q exactly. Scott i would say not yet. We have to see something he said. The recusal is something we predicted. The questions are going to linger, though, what exactly took place in the conversations . He is talking about that now a little bit. People arent going to be satisfied with that yet. So they will want to hear details. How many of the conversations, were there followups . Was there correspondence back and forth . If in a surrogate for the campaign that is where it gets to be a real problem. If he says as is so often the case, senators take meetings with ambassadors. This was simply relation meeting about the current state of affairs he can probably ride the storm and say if the investigations continue my deputy will assign someone who is more of an independently seen special prosecutor. They will handle it. I recuse myself. This end. That is how they want to handle this. I was at the white house nold. We had a lengthy discussion with the president and his staff. This is top of their minds. They want this story gone. They think its nothing but driven by the democrats and the media and they would like it to be over. I wont be over just yet. Michelle thank you. Q if you want to catch the rest of the News Conference, its on the sister station newschannel8 now. Michelle coming up for us at abc7 news at 4 00 a chemistry breakthrough. You may wish you had never seen. Figure out how much urine may be in the average Swimming Pool using science. Thats a q first, though, what is being blamed after a chaotic crash that sent a minivan crashing into a house. Thats next at 4 00. Q we have a chaotic scene now that jarred awake a family. A minivan slammed in their house. Now the driver is facing criminal charges. Suzanne kennedy was the reporter there as the van was removed. Suzanne this is just some of the damage that was left behind when a kia sedona minivan slammed in the side of this manassas home. The accident took place in the 10100 block of loman drive around 4 30. Police tell us a 19yearold woman lost control of her car as she was driving eastbound. She was taken to the hospital and was charged with driving under the influence of drugs. We talked to a motorist who lives in the neighborhood who said he was going to work when he saw the kia being driven erratically. She ran right in the back of my pickup truck. Just hard bang. She had to be running, i was running 25. She had to be running more than 10 miles faster or more. Suzanne there were five people in the house at the time, including three children. One of the adults tells me it sounded like a huge clap of thunder when the car slammed into the house. Fortunately no one was injured. But as you can see, ther they will not be able to return here anytime soon. In manassas, suzanne kennedy. Back to you. Michelle time now for a check of the traffic situation. Trenice bishop is here with the details. Hi, trenice. Trenice hi, michelle. This afternoon we have quite a few things happening. We just reopened 95 southbound in howard county.

Folks will have to continue south past the duke street entrance to access the h. O. V. Lanes. Q, back to you. Q all right, trenice. Thank you very much. Well, here is something to think about as we head closer to spring and pool season. Chemist at the university of alberta in canada say they found a way to look into how much of the chlorinated liquid is urine . A normal pool the figure is 20 gallons. In a backyard pool its more like two gallons. While it sounds revolting, overall its about 100th of 1 of the pools volume way. Who wants to think about that. Michelle its not even yours or your family members. Its some strangers. Doug when my kids were little, we used to tell them if you do that in the pool, the chemicals will turn red and they will know who did it. That is something they should think about. Lets start with the crazy weather pattern. Michelle windy. Doug yes, we have the wind and 80degree temperatures yesterday. Wind today. Snowshowers tomorrow. Michelle a little bit of everything. Doug western maryland has snowshowers now. Not in rockville. Beautiful sky. 44 degrees. The current temperature is well below average. We have had very few stretches this winter where we sustained below average temperatures. That is the reason we have the warmer february on record. Because of the warmth. Snowshowers on radar now. They are moving to the west. They are over the Higher Elevations. Not much will make it east of kize ears ridge and the Higher Elevation breakoff out west today. Comes in tomorrow, a different story. The temperatures drop 30s to 40 overnight. Some of the snowshowers make it to the mountains. In the morning hours, maybe flurries. The ground is warm enough that anything that falls may be on the grass briefly but not cause issues on the streets. Through the day, the temperatures wont rise much. They will fall in the afternoon. Gusty northwest winds and occasional snowshowers and flurries. That is it. No impact at all driving. It will get cold tomorrow night as the temperatures drop in the mid20s. We still have the winds tomorrow night and into the day on saturday. The forecast will hit 45 with sun. Breezy with the flurries or the snowshowers at times. Then as we look ahead beyond that, we see the possibility going through the weekend that the temperatures are just going to be uncomfortable. Wind chill wise. Look for friday evening, feel like the 20s. As we get through saturday, same story. It will be in the teens saturday morning. So a cold stretch. But like all other cold stretches they go around quickly t back to 60 on monday. 67 on tuesday with showers and the warm front. We turn cooler through wednesday and thursday. Not terribly cold. We warm up next weekend. Next weekend we return to daylight savings time and turn the clocks ahead an Hour Saturday night. Spring is coming. Q sure is. Michelle thank you, doug.

E. , the Immigration Enforcement action was only against two specific individuals with a criminal record. Those two individuals were taken away. I. C. E.
