Were asking folks to take this into account and if theyre coming into this area on thursday or friday, try to make some alternative plans.

She apparently had the baby girl inside the home on frederick street. Now the baby is at the hospital and is okay. Police say no charges will be filed against the girl.

Metros general manager was at a summit with area leaders and said the system cant keep going from crisis to crisis. Paul wiedefeld said there are no easy solutions. Metro may have to shut down entire lines for months. Adam tuss reported extended shutdowns are possible in order to let crews get in and fix some of the issues. Wiedefeld is working on a plan to fix those problems. The details of which well be hearing about over the next few weeks. Now a developing story. Two White Minneapolis Police officer will not be criminally charged in the deadly shooting of a black man. Some Community Activists say they dont accept the prosecutors decision. The shooting of jamar clark last year sparked weeks of protests. Police say they were forced to shoot after clark reached for an officers gun. Witnesses said clark was handcuffed when he was shot. Todays decision not to charge officers mark dustin schwartzy came without a grand jury. The evidence showed the officers feared for their lives. The use of deadly force is justified if the officer reasonably believes that death or great bodily harm to himself or another will likely result if he does not act. Protesters are calling for city and state leaders to do more about persistent poverty seen as major contributor to racial tension in the region.

Boy, oh, boy, its getting bumpy out there. First at 4, how you can make sure crews smooth out the potholes in your neighborhood. And new campaign controversy. What happened to a protester at one candidates rally thats raising a lot of questions this afternoon . First at 4. Wall street. The nra. Theyre powerful. They usually get their way. But not with democrat Donna Edwards. She wont take cash from wall street banks. And when washington insiders wrote a loophole to let the nra spend dark money to kill gun safety laws, Donna Edwards said no shes fighting to ban assault weapons and putting the safety of our communities first. Because to democrat Donna Edwards, the special interests arent special. Le for the content of this advertising. Its pothole season and if you live or drive in the district, now is the time to report the potholes youre seeing and hitting. Ddot is gearing up for the annual pothole pa lolooza. Go to the nbc washington app to learn how to report. Z dot h big changes could be coming to union station. These are live pictures of the station right now. The Washington Union station expansion project is working on ways to expand and modernize the hub to give you a better experience and here is what you can look forward to. A realignment of concourse facilities and better infrastructure. They are looking at the potential Environmental Impact of this project.

The governor says protections are already available. First at 4, the new campaign concerns for a republican front runner donald trump and what he just told nbc news thats already getting strong reaction from both sides of the aisle. And why it may not be your imagination. If driving in the dark is so difficult, which cars may nd better eehe narrator all that political mail mlets simplify. Lming. Only one candidate has been endorsed by the Washington PostKathleen Matthews. As a journalist and progressive leader at marriott, she has a broad and deep facility with policy. Emilys list praises matthews as prochoice and the post says on gun control, clean energy, education and Health ResearchKathleen Matthews has greater potential, following the van hollen model, to move the ball forward. Kathleen im Kathleen Matthews and i approve this message. When it comes to the fithings you love,. You want more. Love romance . Get lost in every embrace. Into sports . Follow every pitch, every play and every win. Change the way you experience tv with x1 from xfinity. First at 4, Donald Trump Tells msnbc, quote, there has to be some form of punishment for abortion. The comment comes amid other controversy. Trump is blaming the reporter who was grabbed by his Campaign Manager. Trump told fox news today that the reporter shouldnt have been grabbing him. His Campaign Manager is now charged with battery and police in wisconsin are looking for a man who pepper sprayed a 15yol rally. The divide among republicans is only getting wider. Neither trump, ted cruz, or john kasich say they will definitely support the partys nominee, but all three said they would early in the race. Whurs troy johnson is here for our talk around town and were talking trump. When you hear from your listeners, are they of one mind when it comes to Trumps Campaign style . Not at all. A lot of people unhappy in general with a lot of the rhetoric theyre hearing from all the candidates, so its not just donald trump, but donald trump seems to be taking the cake in terms of what really is catching their ear and theyre not liking what theyre hearing. Other folks i spoke to say they are looking past a lot of this tv sound bite stuff and theyreb tuesday donald trump laid a marker in the sand and said his goal is to get 25 of the black vote. Whatever you think about donald trump, at least he put his marker down and we have something to judge him by. So those are the three reasons why i think the black community will support donald trump. Renard making some pretty strong statements there. I also talked to c. J. Jordan. Shes a republican strategist. She thinks that the economic message that donald trump is talking about will resonate with africanamericans as well, but that means at least from the folks that i talk to, youre going to have to look past an awful lot of rhetoric to get down and drill do t yeah. What are they saying to you about the charges filed against his Campaign Manager for grabbing that young woman, the reporter . That got a mixed reception from folks i talked to. Some say they feel like its a bit overblown. Obviously a situation that happened but they kind of feel like is it about all of this . They say the tape doesnt really show a particularly rough situation but theyre noting its one of many situations trump has had to deal with. And i want to get to this teenager, the 15yearold. She went to a trump event to protest and support the black lives Matter Movement and she got pepper sprayed. What kind of message does that send . Thats resonating with people. Theyre thinking about those situations, the situation where a gentleman was punched at a trump event. Those are the kinds of things that theyre saying theyre upset about. People have theight to express themselves at a rally. Theyve seen candidates at other rallies have been interrupted but they dont see a situation like this where not only the candidate is seeing a situation evolve in front of him at an event but then hes not denouncing it, not saying anything about it. That kind of response is not weighing well with africanamerican voters that i spoke to. Not trying to put out the fire necessarily. Exactly. Okay. All right. Whurs troy johnson, thank you. When it comes to the other gop candidates, theyre going back on a pledge they made earlier in the race. Pat just mentioned this. Steve handelsman is going to have more on that from capitol hill later here on news4. Turning now to the weather. Well, the wind sort of died down today and the Cherry Blossoms are holding on, but, amelia, how long is that going to last . Unfortunately, pat, not very long. Its a little bit breezy out there right now. Gusts from 20 to 25 miles an hour. So its a bit breezy. But were tracking windy conditions throughout the day tomorrow. Winds out of the south so well bring in warmer air. Were kind of trading off more wind for warmer temperatures. On friday its breezy. Saturday its breezy as well. Sunday its windy again finally by monday winds not an issue. Weve been dealing with blustery conditions this entire workweek and thats going to continue to be the case right into the weekend. Temperature right now at 61 degrees. Southerly winds sustained at 15 miles an hour with mostly sunny skies. The weather having a low impact on your day tomorrow. Mostly cloudy skies and theres a chance of scattered showers later in the day so have that small umbrella handy especially during the evening, later evening, and overnight hours, but most if not all of the day is looking dry. So if you have outdoor plans, looking quite nice. 7 00 a. M. The temperature around 51 degrees. So not as cold as tornado watches it was this morning. Temperatures by lunchtime in the mid60s, low 70s by the afternoon. A high tomorrow of 73, and then tomorrow evening at 7 00 a. M. A temperature of 71 degrees. At that point the chance of widely scattered showers. Better chance of rain on friday, especially for the first half of the day into the early afternoon hours. Here is the latest with future weather. Dry but by 8 00, 9 00 a. M. Showers move in impacting your friday morning commute, potentially continuing into the midday and early afternoon hours. Unfortunately, we could see rain ling near the evening hours now, but i think only about a 30 to 40 chance youre dealing with rain on your friday night. And a bit breezy otherwise. Now, as the rain moves through, especially around the morning, midday, and early afternoon hours we could see high winds producing isolated wind damage and theres a potential low to moderate for heavy rain but we wont be talking about any tornadoes and a low risk were seeing any hail. Temperatures right now in the low to mid60s. 61 in leesburg. 64 in manassas. 54 over in annapolis. On friday a high of 76 degrees. Looking at the weekend, some rain now in the forecast on lauryn will have or on what area this looks to favor on saturday. Sunday cooler with a high of that high of 53 will feel more like 40s, chhanks. This could be a gamechanger for georgetown. The decades old law that was just overturned th edoverturned.

Thats who were really trying to get to with these medications. Far more common than many people realize. Yes. What about children . So children is another big population again, and they are particularly at risk. Theyre the ones that miss the most school. These drugs are only approved for kids 12 and older for right now. So the younger children cant get the asthma shot. Studies are being done for their particular shots. I took allergy shots for about ten years and i need to be taking them now. Do they help asthmatics . They actually do, and thats something thats really not thats been around for 100 years. Its the original asthma shot. It will particularly help kids that have allergies but dont have asthma yet. It can stop them from growing into asthma and then it will definitely help adults and kids that already have asthma. For people that dont like taking medication, its an important thing to realize that this is very natural. Theyre just taking pollen and dust and they build up their tolerance. Its another way to do a shot to take care of your asthma. It takes a little while to build up that immunity. It takes a little while.

Were learning new details about a deadly fire in the district. It broke out around block of sedgwick street northwest. There was only one person inside, a man in his 50s. Were still waiting to learn his identity. And there was another deadly fire today in Montgomery County. Investigators there trying to piece together how this blaze started. Two people managed to get out of the home on windjammer way but a man who lived in the basement did not. News4s Kristin Wright is talking to neighbors who say they knew the victim.

Lynn spoke to him just two days ago. Cleaned up his life and i told him that i miss seeing him, that id like to come over and bring him something to eat. Reporter the fire was so intense and wouldnt go out. Firefighters initially thought gas was fueling the flames. Its just like having a candle continuously burning that u upstairs got out. Firefighters thought everyone was accounted for until they found the body after midnight. This morning engineers gave firefighters the okay to go back in, and now investigators are trying to figure out how the fire started. Hes in my prayers. She says he had trouble moving around, and that might have made it more difficult for him to get out. In gaithersburg, Kristin Wright, news4. Right now dozens of World Leaders are on their way to d. C. To take parted in the Nuclear Security summit. Weve been warning you about the impending road closures and parking restrictions around the washington Convention Center.

So far the president has commuted nearly 250 sentences during his time in office. Well, it doesnt matter how much you spend on your car. A higher price tag is no guarantee you will get good headlights. Thats according to a new report out today. Consumer reporter susan hogan is in the newsroom with details. For the First Time Ever the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety tested and rated headlights on more than two dozen 2016 midsized cars. The results are dismal. If youre having trouble seeing behind the wheel at night, it could very well be your head sights and not your eyes that are to blame. According to the study shtion11e 31 rated 4 and they rated only one as good, the prius v. The low beams cover almost 400 time to spot an obstacle and stop. The bmw 3 had the lowest scoring headlight system only able to light up 128 feet ahead. Our tests show that you cant predict performance by the type of headlight. We see a wide range of performance coming from halogens, hi d, l. E. D. , and curb adaptive headlight systems. Bmw says it has been an Industry Leader for Headlight Technology and innovation. While its disappointed with the results of the headlight test, it remains confident it offers customers very effective headlight systems at a variety of price points. Now, the test revealed many of the poor rated headlights belonged to luxury vehicles. The institute also says about half of traffic deaths occur in the dark and improved headlights have the potential to substantially reduce fatalities. In the newsroom, susan hogan, well, there has been a moratorium on new Liquor License in georgetown for nearly 30 years, but now all that is coming to an end. The districts alcohol licensing board voted today to end the moratorium thats been in place since 1988. It affects new Liquor Licenses for restaurants or even public spaces like theaters and galleries. The ban on nightclubs and taverns will stay in place. Back in the 1980s georgetown residents objected to a dramatic increase in bars in the historic area, but now restaurants can start applying for those new Liquor Licenses on april 9th. Well, it was a Beautiful Day out there today. Did get a little on the breezy side as we made it into the afternoon and were looking at pretty gusty winds out there, but the thing is theyre coming out of the south. So that means temperatures shooting on up. Were at 61 here in d. C. Look at that southerly wind right the weve got plenty of sunshine, just a good looking day across the region. High pressure responsible for all this sunshine were seeing out there. I do believe clouds are going to increase tonight, and then weve got some big changes for tomorrow, but not until tomorrow. So get out and enjoy it. If youre going for a run, maybe going to see the Cherry Blossoms, its going to be a little breezy but its going to be beautiful as we get into the late evening. As we head into tomorrow, a different story. More clouds and possibly some rain. Well time it out for you coming up.

In congress, ill protect president obamas legacy, defend obamacare, and stand up for Social Security and medicare. Im glenn ivey and i approve this message. Ill take on republicans for all of us. President obama and Vice President biden held their last easter Prayer Breakfast at the white house today. They spoke about faith and fear and they urged people to stand against terrorist groups responsible for recent attacks in pakistan and belgium. The president said those attacks were meant to weaken our faith. These attacks can foment fear and division. They can tempt us to cast out the stranger. Thats the intent of the terrorists, to weaken our best impulses, our better angels. The president said easter is an ideal time to drown out darkness with light and to heal 35 years ago today d. C. And really the nation and the world were shocked by an assassination attempt on president ronald reagan. Reagan was hit by one of the six bullets fired by John Hinckley jr. He was in the hospital for 12 days. Press secretary james brady and secret Service Agent tim mccarthy was seriously injured. Hinckley was acquitted after a jury found him mentally unstable. We wont soon forget that day. No. And i think a lot of people forget how early that was in reagans presidency, and you think if he had died that day, all of the changes that came about during the next, what, seven years may not have happened the way they did. And, of course, that day, you know, to have Something Like that happen here in washington so close to us was very, very happened here in the nations capital, that it could happen here. That, in fact, it had. And, of course, we were all scrambling. I was in the newsroom.

The tsas Precheck Program was supposed to allow passengers to fly through security lines, but not enough people are signing up and that means longer lines in the standard lanes. Folks who enroll in precheck are able to enjoy expedited screening. The precheck lanes can screen 300 passengers an hour, twice that of standard lanes.
