Leon online threat raising concerns on a number of different campuses today schools in fredericksburg today and Even Harvard Business School had to evacuate buildings there for a bomb threat. In bowie closer to home, someone took to twitter to threaten high school there. Maryland bureau chief brad bell is live in bowie. We look at the calendar. You have to wonder if this is a matter of kids trying to get out of tests or whatever. What are the police doing about this . Are they taking it seriously . Brad they have no choice in this day and age to take it seriously. Something else about this Incident Police thought they knew who sent the tweet. As it turned out they didnt. They have not identified the person so they dont know the intent. One other thing, power of social media. I will do a quick demonstration. I will send a tweet of my own. When come back after the story ill show you what has happened since, the point police are make when kids send something, everything is out of their co at the bowie high school, heavy police presence. Police officers at the ready just in case. Reaction to a single tweet. This one posted yesterday by someone calling themselves unknown kid 18. Threatening. I will be shooting the annex up. Dont come to school. It got a reaction. The School Resource office every and detectives questioning a number of students tracing the source of tweet to a certain wifi location. Tracking the sender. The tweet shared among the school community. The principal sending robo call declaring it a prank. Police however have no choice but to take the threat seriously. And beef up a message of their own to students in the social media age. They need to remember that the internet is forever. When you put something out there, you cant untweet something. You cant call it back from the internet. The society we live accordingly if there is a threat. According to the School System attendance today is near normal. The school day. And dismissal at 2 25 without incident. Now joining you back live, i sent that tweet just a little over a minute ago. It has been retweeted four times. There it goes again.

Dismissal, the school day, everything went fine. In bowie, brad bell, abc7 news. Leon all right. Thank you, brad.

Department of labor is expanding mandatory overtime pay to include people who make less than 43,476 a year. That is about 913 a week and double the current threshold. So that means that 35 of salaried workers will be eligible for overtime pay. Their employers will now pay them time and a half when they work more than 40 hours in a week.

Plan to do to making easier this summer. Alison fruit juice . Im kimberly suiters. 7 alison coming up tonight the office of human rights ruled a manager at a starbucks in Dupont Circle used a homophobic slur against a gay couple. Michael campbell and angel rivera filed a complaint saying the manager called them names, chased them from the store and assaulted campbell. The couple said it happened when he introduced him as his boyfriend. The manager who remains on the job denies the allegation. However, this is not the first time he has been aused of using been accused of causing hateful language. A prior customer stated he was in fact called homophobic slur. Alison this comes after a twoyear investigation. Leon a parent reached out to 7 on your side with concerns about cleaning product that was found on t popular store. Consumer investigator kimberly suiters now is here with a look at the concerns. Kimberly does it look like fruit juice or floor cleaner . Its a cleaner and it is sold in Home Depot Stores and online. Its called mixed fruit. All purpose cleaner. It comes in bright colors and a person said it reminded them of gatorade. A concerned parent reached out to let us know about the cleaner and the colorful packaging and fruity pictures. On the bottle it says on the bottom there keep away from children. But a customer commented on home depots website. That it is a good cleaner but has terrible packaging. Writing, my daughter commented twice we forgot to put the juice away. Even i had to do a double take it was cleaner and not just says the woman. If you have little ones in the home like i do, this is a very big safety risk. I called the local Home Depot Store and the person i was talking said, it does look like it. And that is not the official response. Home depot said they appreciate the concern and they will take it into account. This product should be kept safely out of reach regardless of packaging. Also when we talk to home depot we asked if a lot of people complain and they said no, just the one you saw on the website. We will keep you posted to see if other consumers are speaking out. Alison see if they make changes. Leon the minute i saw that, that is the first thing i saw it look like gatorade. Kimberly they are probably going for the natural part. Its nonchlorinated, nontoxic to that level. But not something you want to mistake for a drink. Alison no. Leon who would think fruit would be used to clean something . It doesnt make sense to me. Alison right. Kimberly it smells nice, leon. Alison good to be aware. Thank you. Leon keep an e us. Alison how about burger king . They said you can have it your way. Apparently they werent just talking about beef. One b. K. Restaurant in helsinki, finland are not just selling whoppers. Theyre selling sauna time. They opened a steam bath last year and they get 60 customers every week. It costs 250 and 300 euros per group. Something we didnt realize last night when we did the story, you cannot eat in the room. You have to do it afterwards. It costs extra. Leon okay, good. If they make eating afterwards mandatory, fine. I wouldnt want someone to eat first and then go in there. Imagine a guy that ate large onion ring next to you in a sauna. Alison no thanks. There you go. Top that one. Doug i cant do that. We will get sunshine in here tomorrow afternoon maybe. Friday is a nice day. Saturday, not so much. Alison okay. Doug okay. Monday, wi are in a pattern. This afternoon the sun broke out for a little while. The clouds have been a story most of the day. It will brighten and clearing out. But not so much. That is the weather story. Pollen count today, if you are having problem. No surprise, moderate level of tree pollen. Grasses are low. Weed absent. Mold spores in the high category on wednesday. Temperatures are below average. Average high is 76. We are in the low the mid50s in northwest. Way below there. We are 12 degrees below the average High Temperature in may at Reagan National where it is only 64. 65 in annapolis. 63 in fredericksburg. Watching the rain on most of it has been well west of metro washington. Along the i81 corridor. Moving northeast. This is along the frontal zone. The whole zone is moving eastward. The individual element of rain moving northeast. It makes sense that later tonight and tomorrow morning a few showers could crawl across the area. For the next couple of hours dry and cloudy across most of the area. The future cast shows according to this solution, some showers that are possible in the morning. Especially south of metro washington. As we work through the day, a couple more showers come in. High pressure from the north. As we get through the day, there could be a passing sprinkle. Skies will start to clear with the sunshine across the area in the afternoon. On friday, the High Pressure takes control and the high ankle with the midmay sun takes over. Low 70s and a nice day. It only lasts for a while. By friday evening the clouds are back on top of us. By the time we get to saturday. We are talking rain and the especially washington. This is 9 30 in the morning. Period of rain will continue through the day on saturday. Ending late saturday afternoon. Overnight forecast generally cloudy. We cant rule out a stray shower. Overnight and in the morning. Through the day in the morning the skies will brighten with sunshine later in the day. 68. Friday is beautiful. 74 degrees for a high. As far as the ride your bike to work day on friday, it will be fine. We will salvage one good day and keep it dry and pleasant in the 70s in the afternoon. Morning hours low 50s. Comfortable. Late afternoon not bad. The next seven days put in the 100 probability of rain saturday. 30 chances on sunday and monday. Clearing out tuesday and wednesday. Next week is a big week it leads in the memorial day weekend. Question will be sunny and warm or nasty and gross like now. Alison like it has been. You dont do the 100 often. Doug no. Leon not a good sign. Doug secret to a long career in my business. Alison never go out on a limb. All right. See you in a few. A scary situation for our good friend and a member of the abc7 team has really become a warning sign for all of us. Leon right. Plus, waiting in line to get through security is frustrating but one possible way around the problems at ohare. Alison first a look at what is coming up tonight. Stroand restoring aing a newbfathers faith. Its standing tall after one surgery. Not six. Stronger is being a typical kid. Despite a rare disorder. Stronger is finding it earlier. And coming home sooner. Stronger is seeking answers. And not giving up, until you find them. Because we dont just want your kids to grow up, we want them to grow up stronger. In your eye and then there was a dark arc in the side of my eye. I didnt know what it was. So i arranged to get a meeting with an optometrist thinking i was going to go there and cover a story that day. That was three mondays ago. It didnt happen. The optometrist sent e to dr. Spellman at the retina, the washington retina group here. And then that night he looked at my eye. He said you have a detached retina. Well have to perform surgery tonight. So that night i came here to the washington medstar hospital center. Surgery. I was stunned it was so serious. Is there you had classic symptoms, floaters followed by flashing lights and followed by the symptom of the peripheral visional loss. The excellent optometrist made a diagnosis and sent you to me. We examined you here at the retina group of washington and found your eye was identical to the one in the diagram. You had a tear in the retina up here at 12 00. Fluid was developing under the retina tracking to the center of your vision. Sam what if it had fallen . If it extended to the central vision you would h the retial detachment would not have been more difficult for me to fix but it would have been less likely to get your normal vision back as we did. But i felt we needed to do prompt emergency surgery. People go blind from this. If its not repaired you will lose your vision. Correct. This is something that was nervewracking to me. They put a gas ball in my eye to heal the retina. At that point you said i had to sit like this for 207 out of 24 hours 20 out of 24 hours a day. Yes. We performed an operation in which we went inside the eye with tiny micro instruments. We cored out the jelly that filled the center of your eye. We drained the fluid and sealed the hole in t bubble. We had to keep you face down so it wouldnt be a cataract in the front of the eye. Sam this is something, we are a very active person drive me crazy. Imagine sitting there looking down for 20 out of 24 hours a day. You were a wonderful compliant patient. That is why you had your normal vision restored. Sam what should people look for . Look for the symptoms of floaters and flashing lights. Worrisome symptom is of a shade coming over their peripheral vision. If you have severe retial detachment you will get a shade at the bomb of the. Inferior detachment is shade up at the top. If the detachment is on the right, the loss is on the left, et cetera. Sam go in right away . Go in right away. You were referred to me and fixed right away. It happened in one day for you. That is ideal. Leon sam, i got to ask you. I have heard about this happening to boxers. I have seen it happen when people have impact injury to the eye. Is that not what happened to your case . Sam what happened . How did i get this . I have certainly cared for boxers. Jersey joe walcott was one of my favorite patients and trauma is a cause of the retial detachment e6retial detachment. But most are not caused by trauma. As the eye is older the jelly that fills the central core will pull from the retina. The inside lining of the back of the eye. Sam age thing basically. Age thing. For everyd situation to develop floaters. One in 10,000 people per year will end up with detachment. I wish i won the lottery. You got it fixed. You did win the lottery. You are still here. You did win the lottery. That is all that matters. All right. Listen, thank you for the information. We appreciate it. Glad you took care of yourself. Next time let us know what is going on. I must say that the retina group of washington provides the highest level of care. There are 26 of us and the largest retina group in the country. We provide expert, compassion and care. We educate young fellows and cutting edge research. You took care of our buddy. Well let you get the plug in. Thank all right. Leon the bad news is you are getting older. You cant escape that. Take care. Talk to you in a bit. Im older than he is. Leon take care. All right. Alison okay. Moving on with more of the news of the day. We have seen this video all week long. Today the Transportation Security Administration announced relief on the way for travelers making their way through chicago. Michelle marsh reports now that the plan comes on the same day Airline Industry experts release the Summer Travel forecast. If you think the lines at the airports are unbearable now ridiculous. Brace yourself for the situation to get uglier. Frustrating. Takes a while to travel. According to the travel experts, passengers this summer will be one for the record books.

That was at chicago ohare where thousands of travelers had to come one a plan b after missing the flight. If i did my job this bad i wouldnt resign. Part of the problem are fewer screeners and more passengers. While the t. S. A.

Everything from the role of Police Officers to different career options. We are here to present the opportunities. And let them know they can take advantage of them. If they see a role modellal, if they see someone who has succeeded that look like them, has their background, they feel like they can do it, too. And they c leon but this is more than a civic lesson. Projects like making lunches for the homeless encourages them to be active and conscientious american citizens. For the students, libertys promise is not only helped them fit in, it has given them the confidence they need to pursue the american dream. And their promise of a bright future. They gave me an internship. Put me a step forward for when i was applying for colleges. I started [inaudible] since being in liberty promise. Talking to people more. I feel better. The people here are like my second family. I expect great things from the young people. I think they are going to show us that. Leon a great group. Some of them have the most amazing stories.

You probably know that by now. It is already the hottest ticket in town. Maybe too hot to handle for the Kennedy Centers website today. Because hundreds of theater fans spent hours clicking through it. Desperate to get season subscriptions. Even though hamilton tickets are not available yet. As mike carterconneen reports, all that demand resulted in some difficulty and some delays. Mike still two years away. But today at 10 00 a. M. There was a fan frenzy on the Kennedy Center website. Im not really a theater person. If this is a good show people will spend the money. Mike following an elaborate strategy, fans rushed to buy subscriptions to the theater season. Because then they are guaranteed seats first in line for the 20172018 lineup featuring hamilton. However, once saw the subscription prices not in the budget. They decided to wait for the single tight sales. I heard tickets will be hard to score. Others said ill spend the money to new york. Id rather sit in the last row of new york. Fans using the Kennedy Center website today flooded twitter with complaints. Having so many issues. The system is bouncing me right before payment. Kicked out again and back in the virtual line. Epic fail today, Kennedy Center. Whoo hoo got my only took two hours. The Kennedy Center apologized offering assistance. A spokesperson declined to go on camera but in a statement said our online waiting room is activated anytime we experience higher than usual demand. To ensure a smooth process and Good Customer Service we have a Team Dedicated to monitor from the online waiting room to the site as quickly as possible. The good news is the website seems to be working fine now. The online lines are much shorter than earlier today. Even if you have hundreds in line in front of you in a matter of seconds, you can see the numbers drop draw matticly. Drop dramatically. Be patient. Alison you have to wonder if that has happened before on the day they opened subscriptions. Leon first hour they opened. The first minute they open up. Lines of 300400 people waiting. Alison amazing. Leon you have to think theyd be waiting for that. Alison a lot of demand. Definitely. Leon check to see how it is shaping up with the supply and the demand of the emty Jamie Sullivan is watching that. Alison happy birthday. Jamie thank you leon happy birthday. Jamie i appreciate it, guys. The one thing that would be great on my birthday is nice traffic, right . Without any big accidents. That is what we have. Nothing major on our interstates at least. You can see here crossing the American Legion bridge, it is slow. We have that. Crash. Watch for this in fairfax. Glen carlin drive. It may be closed for extend period of time. You want to avoid the area. That is a look at traffic. Leon thank you. Alison we saw the sun today. Doug yes. We saw the sun. It was brief. But we saw sunshine for a while. We will see more tomorrow as we get into the afternoon hours. And friday is look good. Tonight we will talk about lunch box weather again. Alison love it. Doug that was, this afternoon, or earlier this afternoon. Maybe you can flip it so i can see where the location thank you. Josh knight visited langely Elementary School in northeast washington for the lunch box weather program. They go there and do experiments and they answer questions. Its interactive. They can make clouds. When they get, if they want fresh air he takes them outside to show them the storm chaser with the stuff that is in it. Its really fun for the kids. We also answer questions from the students around the area. And the questions today, well, first had naz on the kid cam. Adonis had this question for us. Hello. Im adonis. I would like to ask why do hurricanes come to d. C. If we are not on the ocean . Doug that is a good question. Why hurricanes come to d. C. You think ocean stuff. Well, talk for a second why that happens. First, hurricanes develop over the oceans and the gulf of mexico. And then where they travel is combination effect. Mostly jetstream winds, upper level systems. Usually happens the hurricanes like to stay close to the power source which is warm water. Every now and then North Carolina gets clipped, because they are close to the coastline. If you notice on the lefthand side of the screen, you see tracks from the gulf of mexico and the storm subside by the time they hit the great lakes. The key here is very seldomly does a hurricane come to washington, d. C. Normally its a weakened hurricane. There have been times i remember the thoracic here is 1954 remember the classic here of 1954, hurricane hazel. It passed a few mile west of washington. It can happen. We dont like it but it can happen. Leon unlike this story you have to see this. Erin yes. We have the story of a local High School Student who set out to break three World Records. Using his dad as motivation. Nobody believed me. Erin this amazing feat took a toll physically. It destroys your giants, muscles. If your body isnt tough enough, it can just really, really hurt you. Erin emotionally. Im going to get choked up. High School Junior set out i worked seven months to do this. To set World Records. For this in six hours, 12 hours and 24 hours. To raise money to fight cancer. Andrews father allen is a colon cancer survivor. Compassionate son. A compassionate brother. In all, 7,306 pu hours. And his dad was there to help pull him through. Seeing him there is really great. He raised, you know, over 5,000. Andrew is still coming to grips with what he accomplished. A world record holder and son who wouldnt quit. When you see a child accomplish his goals as a parent, that has to be one of the best feelings you can have. Its great if you accomplish goals but if your child accomplishes them its something you will never forget. A goal now is compete on a reality Obstacle Course shows. My hands hurt just thinking of this. Erin my arms. I cant do one. Alison vo for dominion, part of delivering Affordable Energy includes supporting those in our community who need help.

Com maureen alarming testimony on capitol hill today about a looming thr specifically targeting the nation power grid. As scott thuman reports there are constant attempts and we are not prepared for them. Concern on capitol hill. Can other nations or terror groups cripple cities through Cyber Attacks . Chair of the Homeland Security Committee Told us yes and too few are paying attention. These are real threats that we need to take serious and anticipate these to put in whatever protection to the electrical grid that we can. In 2003, when a Software Glitch triggered a massive blackout in the northeast, paralyzing new york. Airports were shut down. Trains halted. 12 people die and it took days to restore electricity. Natural disasters pose threats to the grid. Now the potential for true attacks on the facilities sometimes se more than chainlink fence. A lot of people have been warning about it. Not many folks have been paying attention. Veteran journalist ted koppel testified about the yearlong research lights out. We are good in reacting to crisis. Since 9 11 we have spent trillions of dollars. Tens of thousands of men and women have gone overseas to fight two wars. Were not good at preempttive action. Its not just what if. According to usa today last year that wrote there is cyber attack on the nations grid once every four days. People are not taking the threat seriously. In fact, senator johnson says back in 2008, congress was presented with 15 recommendations on how to better secure the grid. All the years later he says none of them have been done. He hopes todays testimony might change that. On capitol hill, scott thuman. Abc7 alison thank you. That is it for 5 00. At 6 00, a developing story. A transgender woman removed from a bathroom.
