foster was her only son. >> i loved him with all my heart. and life is never going to be the same for me. or his children. or his sister. >> reporter: four people were shot as large crowds of people were on the street following the caribbean day parade. authorities say one of the wounded men could have also been one of the shooters. he was captured after running down an alley. according to ward one councilman jim graham, that man was the same person who was the intended target when 17-year-old lucky pinnell was shot and killed on her northwest porch in february. >> they determined to kill

some point tomorrow. report live from northwest, darcy spence yes, news 4, back to you. >> all right, darcy, thank you. police say a drunk driver is to blame for a fiery crash near winchester that killed a family of four. this happened around 11:00 this morning at the intersection of route 11 and interstate 41. virginia investigators say a jeep was at a stoplight when it was rear-ended by a pickup truck. the crash ruptured the jeep's gas tank and the suv burst into flames. all four people inside that jeep died, including two boys, ages 4 and 11. the driver of the pickup, 20-year-old steven boyce, is charged with involuntary manslaughter and underaged possession of alcohol. the river has finally crested in minot, north dakota, but the damage has been done. 4,000 homes and businesses underwater. 11,000 people displaced. john yang has more on what's being done to prevent even more flooding while residents wait for the water to recede. >> reporter: in minot today the furious effort to reinforce the last lines of defense around the city's critical infrastructure. >> this is our war zone here, and this is where we continue to fight. >> reporter: so far the levees are holding at the water filtration plant. but officials have ordered already weary residents to boil their drinking water in case the supply is contaminated. >> until there is a significant reduction in the water level we all have to remain vigilant. >> reporter: the souris river crested in minot about two feet lower than forecast, but still shattered a record set in the 1880s. the historic flooding across the region is due to heavy spring rains and record snowpack. nearby the missouri river reached new highs and areas downstream continue to be threatened. this week st. joseph, missouri, a city of more than 75,000 people, could see the worst flooding since the 1990s. in nebraska a temporary barrier protecting a nuclear power plant along the missouri river deflated. officials say the plant was not affected. in minot 4,000 homes and businesses have been damaged, and more than 11,000 people have been evacuated. but so far only a few hundred are in the city's temporary shelters. many are turning to friends and neighbors instead. >> it's a very big house, but because there's three families there now we have one bed with lots of stuff. it's just like a sleepover. so it's all good. >> reporter: for residents allowed into evacuated areas for the first time today the scene was stunning. >> you hear so much about what it's like out here. but when you actually see your house and you know it's not just your basement, it's your whole house, i'm sorry. >> reporter: while the floodwaters are still nine feet deep in some areas, signs that the river's begun its slow retreat led officials at this company to start tearing down a berm they hastily built three days ago. >> we feel that we've hit the crest and now we're going down. and if need be, if it comes back, we can put the berm back in place. >> that was john yang reporting. the waters in minot are receding. but by just a fraction of an inch every hour. officials hope the water will be down by about two feet by sometime mid-week. a school bus filled with children heading to summer camp flipped over on the interstate today, sending more than two dozen to the hospital. amazingly, though, everyone is expected to be okay. this happened this afternoon on interstate 81 near chambersburg, pen. police say the bus flipped and landed on the guardrail. the driver of another car was trying to pass the bus when it swerved into him. or rather when he swerved into it. 25 people, including children ages 9 to 12, went to the hospital with relatively minor injuries. police may file charges against the 79-year-old driver of that car. a nevada trucking company now under scrutiny for that deadly crash with an amtrak train on friday. a tractor-trailer collided with a loaded amtrak train. at least six people died. another five people are unaccounted for. federal investigators are trying to figure out why the truck driver didn't stop despite ample warnings, including flashing lights and gates of the crossing. john davis trucking has been cited repeatedly for crashes, unsafe driving, and operating a truck with bald tires. investigators say it could take a year to determine the cause of the crash. health officials are trying to figure out the source of an e. coli outbreak that's responsible for the death of a virginia toddler. at least 18 others have gotten sick. all of the infections have been reported over the past six weeks in either northern tennessee or western virginia. health officials say all the cases have similarities but they still are working to come up with a common source for the bacteria. just

killed six and injured 13. the senate's top republican and top democrat head to the white house tomorrow for separate meetings on raising the debt ceiling. the talks broke down late last week. gop lawmakers insist they won't get on board with any tax increases. house democrats insist they don't want to raise taxes, instead cut tax breaks for the wealthy. >> the whole business of raising taxes, regardless of how you go about it, is something that this congress is not likely to do. the last congress wasn't willing to do it. so we need to talk about -- >> we want to close those loopholes up. we done want to raise anybody's tax rates. that's never been on the table. >> the government will reach its credit limit in august. without an increase no money can be spent. we're following several

the d.c. fire department along with his family and firefighters who were there that saturday in 1971, they honored his sacrifice and his service. they dedicated an alarm call box to him in front of his fire station on 13th street in northwest. >> we will always remember tommy. a fallen member of our family. this memorial will stand watch in front of our porters indefinitely, a tribute to a fallen hero. >> tommy turner was born and raised in d.c. he spent his entire career with engine company 16. he often said his job was the best, the only thing he loved more was his wife, margaret, and daughter patricia. the latest now on former fugitive james "whitey" bulger. he eluded the fbi for 16 years. today we're learning more about his life on the run and his life now behind bars. here's miguel almaguer. >> reporter: two days after james bulger entered a massachusetts jail we've learned new details about his 16 years on the lam, charged with a laundry list of crimes including 19 murders. the 81-year-old gangster that looks more like a grandpa has been described as chatty while behind bars. lindsay sear dated bulger and knew him as jimmy. >> we had a very nice life together. he was a wonderful father. he was very supportive. >> reporter: housed in plymouth county's notorious g unit, bulger is surrounded by other high-profile inmates all considered dangerous. for 23 hours a day he's confined to his cell. bulger can shower, walk a caged yard, or make a phone call during his one free hour. a far cry from life on the run lived in the open. bulger called santa monica home. neighbors say he was often seen at the bustling 3rd street promenade. didn't seem to matter much. police and surveillance cameras lined the walk. bulger is also said to have routinely crossed into mexico, slipping back and forth over the border with a fake i.d. to buy medicine. for all those years it seems james bulger wasn't trying to hide as much as fit in. >> jimmy had always been adamant about the idea he was not going back to jail. >> reporter: he's had a taste of prison before. in the '60s he did time on the rock at alcatraz. now back behind bars again it seems bulger is talking about life on the run. the man they call whitey may be confined, but he hasn't been silenced. miguel almaguer, nbc news, los angeles. >> chuck bell's here now. and there are women and children running into bunkers and dogs running away. >> all they heard was the word asteroid and they figured it was a movie or it was going to be bad but there was going done no danger. we're all going to make it. i just want to point that out to begin with because whenever you start talking about asteroids the people immediately going to science fiction movies. >> reality isn't the same. >> it never really ends all that well in the movies. we are going to have a near-earth passing of an asteroid tomorrow. it's not a very big one. so even if it hit the earth it wouldn't do anything bad. it would probably just explode on the re-entry to the atmosphere. nonetheless, we will have it going by tomorrow afternoon. here's a couple of graphics to sort of give you a little perspective on where it is. outside a fairly cloudy night out there right now. so as a result you're not going to get to see the asteroid with these clouds around. and even tomorrow's going to be fairly cloudy as well. here's the way it looks on our graphics here. that's earth there in the middle. the sun is off to the left of the screen. that's the path of the asteroid. that thin blue line. and the reason it's making that turn is because it's being affected by the gravity of the earth as it goes by. this is another complicated graphic here from nasa. but what you need to know is that it's going to be passing the closest to the earth, about 1:14 tomorrow afternoon. it's going to be 7,500 miles up in the sky. and it's asteroids again. between 30 and 90 feet across. but 700 miles up. that's a long way up. here's how far up that is. your aircraft when you fly from here to grandma's house in california five to seven miles up. 30,000 to 40,000 feet. the international space station orbits the earth at 200 to 250 miles up. the asteroid's going to be 7,500 miles. the weather satellites that we take our pictures with, 22,000 miles up. and the moon is orbiting the earth at 250,000 miles. so it's a long way up. not going to be bothering anybody. but you will now be schooled and you can actually explain to other people at the office tomorrow that you knew about the asteroid first. right now, with the cloudy sky out there, 79 degrees is the current temperature. the winds have gone calm. so it's going to be a relatively quiet night out there. temperatures are going to be drifting back only a couple more degrees thanks to the cloud cover and one or two lonesome raindrops. not a lot of these are reaching the ground. but nonetheless, a few spots might be just enough to get a couple of raindrops on your hood or maybe a few swipes on the windshield with your wipers. that's going to be just about it. the steady or very light showers are going to go well down to our south, in fact to the south of the richmond area. that's where most of it's going to stay overnight. i couldn't rule out a couple of lonesome sprinkles between now and the time you get up first thing tomorrow morning. gradually what you're going to notice tomorrow is we get warmer and a little more humid. as that warm front lifts on through it may be able to generate a couple rain showers as well. with the heating of the day couldn't completely rule out an isolated thunderstorm tomorrow. but by and large we're waiting on tuesday, this next weather front coming in here tuesday afternoon and tuesday night. that'll be our best chance to see the rain showers. here's our little microcast model. 3:00 in the morning. couple of sprinkles just down to the south of town. then again a shower tomorrow afternoon. cloudy tonight, couple of sprinkles around. then tomorrow a mix of clouds and sunshine. a passing shower or thundershower not completely out of the question. but most of tomorrow will be dry. best chance of rain is tuesday. wednesday, thursday, and friday look nice. and then as we head into fourth of july weekend, highs back up into the 90s with some humidity around. so it will feel like the fourth of july around here. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. still to come tonight, they were happily married when they went on "the marriage ref." not anymore. why this guy blames jerry seinfeld for his divorce. and in sports how the washington mystics were able to end their four-game losing end their four-game losing streak. the gas prices are going down, they go back up again. we know saving money is important. this summer, shop

saving money at the store, i'm saving money at the pump, and that works for me. more savings every time you shop, only with your giant card. davey johnson. coming up on "sports final." meantime, nats

coming up on "sports final." >> hakem, coming up on "sports final," "washington post" columnist mike wise is in the house. and we are of course going to talk about jim riggleman. is he crazy for cocoa puffs, or what? >> i wouldn't go that far. i do think that -- i do think if he was a little smarter he would have played out the winning streak and had public sentiment turn against him. there's nothing better, dan, than somebody saying our manager is now a martyr, why don't we extend him. and they get mad at ownership. i don't know why he didn't wait for that. >> it was an amazing turn of events. and everybody that's run across jim riggleman likes jim riggleman. kind of sad to see him go out that way. also exciting to be talking about the nationals' success. if you have to pick an all-star, don't say it. that's called a tease. we'll also be talking about the nba labor situation, which could last for a very long time. >> could. and by the way, if you didn't guarantee me next week, i'll be leaving the set right now. >> no guarantees here. mike wise from the "washington post" will join hakem and me coming up. hakem, let's send it back to you. >> all right, dan. i love mike
