doorstep. fox's audrey barnes working this one in the newsroom. >> the fbi has been investigating ahmad about two years after a tip he made a youtube video for the terror group lashkar e tayyiba the same group believed to be responsible for the mumbai attacks that killed 264 people including a virginia man and his daughter. neighbors say 24-year-old jubair ahmad lived in this apartment complex

unsealed affidavit by an fbi special agent reveals the case against ahmad. it accuses him of providing support to the terrorist group lashkar e tayybiba and the group has been linked to the terror attack in 2008 in mumbai. >> i would have never guessed that. they kept to themselves and he worked on his car. they didn't say anything to nobody. that's all i saw of. >> reporter: authorities say in september of 2010 ahmad uploaded a five minute video to youtube showing images of the terrorist group's leader and armored trucks exploding after being hit by ieds. investigators say he recently revised the video and reposted it. involvement in activities his neighbor finds a bit unnerving. >> disappointing and it's not as comforting just because i mean we do live here. we have two small kids. so it's not something you want to hear that's in your building. >> ahmad is believed to have trained as a commando at one of the terrorist group camps in pakistan as a teenager. he moved to the united states with his family in 2007. >> what did they find during the search of ahmad's house? >> neighbors say investigators carried out boxes of stuff and a computer. according to the affidavit,

continued threat of al-qaeda and other groups, no specific threats mentioned. the state department says terrorist groups often plan attacks for important dates. who killed a 75-year-old woodbridge man in his home and why? that's what investigators are trying to figure out tonight. it happened at an apartment on hedgewood drive last night. fox 5's roz plater has the latest. >> police are following some leads, but if they have a suspect or motive, they simply aren't talking. they were back at the scene tonight looking for information. prince william county uniformed officers and detectives handed out flyers and canvassed neighbors for information late into the evening. grieve the victim was murdered between 5:00 and -- they believe the victim was murdered between 5:00 and 10:00 last night. his wife came home from work around 11:30 and discovered his body on their living room floor. the couple lived on the second floor of the senior living complex and a murder has left the community on edge. >> there is no signs of forced entry, no indications of a robbery. we are investigating it as a homicide, though we aren't releasing a cause of death now. >> we should feel safe in our home. this shouldn't happen. >> coming up at 11:00 you'll hear from neighbors who are now worried about their own safety here. we'll tell you what they're doing to protect themselves and why they are concerned about the building's security system. we should tell you the victim has been identified as 75-year- old kwang hur of woodbridge. we are also following new developments in the lululemon murder case. the judge ruled brittany norwood spoke willingly to investigators and nearly everything she said can be used at trial. norwood's attorneys wanted to suppress statements she made to police prior to her arrest, but the judge ruled norwood was not in custody and did not need to be ad vied of her rights to remain -- advised of her rights to remain silent then. norwood is charged with killing jayna murray inside the store in march. gary giordano is being held in aruba for 60 days. he has not been charged but is the only suspect in the disappearance of robyn gardner. giordano says gardner disappeared two days after they arrived on the island while snorkeling. his lawyer maintains there is no evidence of a d of violent crimes is back in custody in anne arundel county. officers

burney on a warrant in north carolina for kidnapping -- glen burnie on a warrant in north carolina for kip napping,ate and robbery. tropical storm -- kidnapping, rape and robbery. >> tropical storm lee has been upgraded and it looks like new orleans may really get dumped on. >> right in the crosshairs of this tropical storm, such that officials have already issued a state of emergency down there. rain is already falling in parts of the south as tropical storm lee heads towards the gulf coast. this slow moving storm could drop up to 20 inches or more of rain in some areas in the next few days. tropical storm warnings are in effect now from mississippi to texas, a state of emergency already declared in louisiana. people in new orleans, much of which sits below sea level, getting anxious about a possible repeat of hurricane katrina. >> most of this is gravity drained. you know, this is an old section of town and the water used to just run off and when it runs off, it collects and if they don't pump, it it will build up here. >> we have to keep up after ourselves or we would really be in trouble. >> residents in other parts of the state also desperately trying to protect their homes. >> nervousness because we know the area we live and we're prone to flooding. >> mississippi declaring a state of emergency as well as the storm is expected to cause severe flooding across the region. >> this thing is dumping so much rain we can see it already on the radar with the red and yellow. >> one of the problems, brian, big storm again much like ryan, okay? even before the storm has -- irene, okay? even before the storm has made landfall there will be several inches of rain already and i mentioned in the story maybe as much as 10, 20 inches of rain. i think there will be spots up in louisiana, some of the southern patients could be isolated up to 2 -- parrishs there could be isolated up to 2 feet. this is satellite images, not radar. those are the highest cloud tops where the convection is, the thunderstorms, the red there and you look at that and have a hard time even trying to figure out where this storm is located since it's taking up so much of the gulf of mexico, but you might be surprised to find out this storm now is just offshore from southern section of the shoreline of louisiana there and it is very slowly tracking north. the latest information that we have on this, it's moving now to the north at 3 miles an hour. last time we got the report from the hurricane center it was moving 2 miles an hour, very, very slow obviously. there's no steering currents down in the gulf of mexico to push it around one way or the other. top sustained winds and some of those thunderstorms around the center 45 miles per hour. now one of the unique things about this storm we'll he see for the next several days, not -- we'll see for the next several days, not only how slow it is, but how erratic. these lines represent what we look at in terms of modeling information. they are all over the place with this storm. not only can they not decide when it will make landfall, but they can't decide how long it actually sits out over the warm waters of the gulf of mexico. brian, the longer it sits, the more it's going to intensify, but one thing is for sure. look at the consensus of those lines, those models. several days from now they bring what's left of lee right up into the midwest and i think eventually we're going to get rain from that and any time it's tropical rain we could get good rain and we also have, of course, hurricane katia out there. don't think it's going to be a problem for the east coast, but if it is, it will be compounded because of the rain we'll have from what's left of lee. >> a little later in full weather i want to talk about is it katia or katia? >> i don't know, katia probably. i think i've called it three or four different things at this point. >> i think shawn calls it caught ya. we want to keep it as -- katia. we want to keep it as far away as possible. you can track katia and lee on www.myfoxdc.com. >> katia i think is how you say it. virginia governor bob mcdonnell is asking the obama administration for federal disaster aid to help 22 virginia cities with expenses from hurricane irene. the storm caused about $39 million in damage to the commonwealth. the governor also plans to ask for aid to help individuals after property damage assessments are done. meanwhile about 17,000 bge customers are still without power tonight. the mayor of bowie maryland says he is not happy. >> we could have done over and sometime after the event is over we'll be inviting bge folks in to sit with the council and community and talk about what they anticipated, how they intended to respond, what resources they brought, what their policies and priorities were and where we go from here. >> bge says it expects to restore all remaining outages by saturday night. nearly one week later much of the east coast is still cleaning up after hurricane irene. there are still about 400,000 homes and businesses without power. this sunday president obama will visit patterson, new jersey. floodwaters there

celebrate with him coming up live in our studio at 10:30, chuck brown. . a series of overnight break- ins kept police very busy today. three local businesses were hit including redskins player chris cooley pottery gallery. >> reporter: the cooley gallery has been closed most of the day still cleaning up for the break- in getting ready for a wine breaking tonight. this photo shows the shattered glass in the front doorway. >> we're sitting there having coffee this morning and his eyes got really big and he's like someone broke into the gallery, so my first thought was i thought the pottery was probably smashed and destroyed. >> reporter: no. the redskins tight end and fan favorites handmade pottery was not touched, nor were chris cooley's autographed jerseys, helmets and other sports memorabilia on sale here. instead the burglar stole the gallery's cash register and computer, walked them down to the nearby courthouse and smashed them to bits. sources say the guy was caught on surveillance video here. the cooleys do not have security cameras at the gallery. >> it's really upsetting. destroying our computer and the hard drive and everything, that's left a lot of damage. all of our information was on that for our gallery and inventory and just everything. so that was the worst part. >> reporter: two other shots on king -- shops on king street were targeted. in both cases front door windows were shattered, but the doors remain locked and nobody went inside. >> we've been open almost a year. next week will be one year and it's the first of any sort of vandalism we've had. >> reporter: leesburg police say the crimes are likely the work of the same person but would not confirm he was captured on video outside the courthouse. in the meantime christy cooley says she's feeling a bit vulnerable. >> downtown leesburg is pretty safe. i grew up in this area. so for me i've never felt that way. it was really surprising. >> reporter: bob barnard, fox 5 news. >> chris cooley says police told him they recovered blood and fingerprint evidence. chris also says he and his wife saved their hard drive. the redskins wrapped up the preseason last night with victory over the tampa bay buccaneers. next time they play it counts. fox 5's lindsay murphy here with the state of the skins. >> most players will tell you they can do without preseason games, but because of the lockout it was imperative that every player got some good reps. last night most of the starters rested like the offensive line. they were in to guard john beck. that's because beck got to start and played the entire 1st half. rex grossman sat out. 1st quarter a 19-yard hook-up on the day 10-21, 108 yards, one interception. in the battle of the backups rob jackson stole the show to rudy carpenter who fumbles and rookie marcus wright scoops it up and returns it to the 2. that set up a touchdown. the redskins go ahead 7-0. in the 2nd quarter brandon banks back in action after missing two games with knee problems and the little man back in a very big way. he wouldn't be challenged. banks goes 95 yards for the td. watch the end of this. he nearly let it get away because he almost let go of the ball before breaking the plane. it was reviewed and ruled a touchdown 14-0 skins. over a minute left skins down one, a 41-yard strike to daunte stallworth who had five catches for 80 yards. redskins win 29-24 in dramatic fashion. >> we try to get better every day. i think we're able to do that throughout the preseason. i'm pleased with the effort and attitude. we had a lot of players going in the same direction working extremely hard. now we're looking forward to playing the game. >> one month ago we announced cornerback phillip buchanon would be suspended for four games. nobody would say why. it came out today he violated the substance abuse policy for performance enhancing drugs. he will not be able to be activated until october 3rd on the roster. fox 5 is monitoring metro,

double dip recession. fox 5's laura evans here with the story. >> it's the weakest jobs report in two years and shows unemployment stuck at 9.1%, no net job gains at all. it's the worst jobs report of the summer and republican critics are charging the president has failed to emphasize long term job growth. president obama had nothing to say to the cameras friday as he left the white house for camp david. administration officials, however, are saying that the unemployment rate is unacceptably high. today's report reveals non-farm payrolls in august grew by roughly zero. hiring estimates for june and july are down by the tens of thousands and now a former bush economic advisor says a double dip recession is more likely. >> the one troubling statistic is layoffs have picked up pretty significantly from january of 2011. that's a big concern because it tells me that that's the kind of thing that happens at the beginning of a recession. >> reporter: the white house tried to turn the tide saying this shows republicans need to meet the president halfway when he issues a call to action. >> he's going to put forward very meaningful proposals that would have a very significant impact on the economy and job creation in areas like tax relief for workers in small businesses, in areas like jobs for rebuilding america. >> reporter: republican critics are skeptical and james shirk,

was being nominated and to me that's something i never thought be nominated for anything. so to me it was great, great part of my life i tell you. >> let me ask you about that. you had an interesting career. you've been performing since you were a child. most people here in the d.c. area know who chuck brown is. a lot of people didn't know who you were until busting loose came out. at this point, you know, do you ever get frustrated that you have not gained some of the accolades that some of your other contraries have? >> no. not at all because when i started the go-go thing, it didn't matter to me even when i first started playing, you know, 49 years ago, it didn't matter to me if i didn't get outside the city. i just wanted to play and just wanted a nice band and wanted to be happy playing music. that was my thing, you know, and i started off playing jazz and blues, but evidently i wasn't that good. it ended up we started doing top 40 and we did top 40 for years and before i started go- go thing, but the main thing is when you're doing top 40, you have to back in those days had to sound like a record and if james brown, you didn't sound like him, you might not get that

henrehan more on the repair efforts. >> reporter: culpeper, virginia, was hit hard by the august 23rd earthquake with a total of 10 buildings at least temporarily condemned. the levy building constructed around 1870 was deemed so damaged it could not be saved. demolition crews spent about three workdays completely removing the entire structure. another building constructed in the late 1800's also suffered significant damage, the second story bricks facing main street shifted significantly posing a risk for travel below and pedestrians. a team of workers spent all day knocking out the bricks from the front of the building. the owner plans to reinforce the front and quickly build a brick facade on that second story. that will conform with architectural requirements for culpeper's historical district. did by chance you have earthquake insurance? >> no, we did not. >> reporter: will you in the future? >> we'll at least look into it. i don't know how expensive it is, but -- >> reporter: i'm guessing it's going to be more expensive than it used to be in virginia. >> i'm sure, a whole lot more. >> reporter: any idea what the price tag on this project will be? what's the back of the envelope guess? >> well, this is a lot less than we thought. it will probably be somewhere under $10,000. >> reporter: it's hard for a town to lose a building that stood at least 140 years. final decisions on the remaining buildings have not been made, but it appears possible that at least eight and possibly nine of the 10 damaged structures may survive the virginia earthquake of 2011. john henrehan, fox 5 news. a local county is issuing a health alert tonight. find out if you could be at risk for measles. also ahead hurricane irene takes out a national treasure visited by

welcome back, everybody. a pretty gorgeous day, a little more humid today, but i'm hoping this holiday weekend is going to be nice. >> i that it it was going to rain today. >> yeah. it did in some places a little bit, but it pretty much stayed away from the district, thank goodness. there's rain in the forecast but not a washout. that's good news. that's always a plus when you're headed into a holiday weekend and you can look at things and say we have a little rain in the forecast, but it doesn't look like it's going to rain continuously. maybe that's next week on say tuesday and wednesday. we'll get some of that tropical moisture up here and bring some rain. gorgeous tonight after temperatures today only in the 70s here in town 79 in the city, dulles 80 degrees, bwi marshall only up to 77 for a high, a little break from the heat, but the heat will build a bit for the weekend. it's in the upper 60s gaithersburg, here in the city 73, manassas 70 degrees, fredericksburg 72. pick your place on there, temperatures all around the area in the lower 70s. showers today and most of it now is well down into eastern or pardon me, we were sections of north carolina and filling up over south carolina where there is a lot of rain tonight. down through new orleans here this is all moisture streaming ahead of what is tropical storm lee. look at this storm. the center of circulation is right up here, but it's tapping moisture back down to the south. so it looks like at least in the last few images here a satellite picture there's dry air here and it's trying to pull on in and that might try and separate things just a little bit, but if it splits the storm here, this could get a bit stronger a little faster because again large storms have a hard time getting stronger quickly, but if they get a little smaller, this could spin up a bit. there's a lot of warm air over the gulf of mexico. right now the storm hurricane center is still showing winds of 45 miles per hour, movement very slow to the north. look at this, all the way up. this takes you a track up to wednesday and it's only up in alabama as a depression and it looks like most of that moisture eventually will be able to stream up to the north, get caught in the west/east flow. so by the time we get to tuesday, wednesday, thursday, maybe lingering even into friday, we'll have that moisture from tropical storm lee up here into the midwest in the mid-atlantic. this is hurricane katia. winds right now back up to hurricane strength, 75 miles per hour, gusts to 90. look at the track over the next several days. we will be talking about katia through the weekend and into next week as she gets closer to the coast. right now it looks like she'll turn before she gets to the east coast. 87 tomorrow, a few showers possible, a few thunderstorms sunday and showers and thunderstorms in here by labor day. just some clouds overnight tonight, temperatures upper 60s here in town, mid- to low 60s in the suburbs. we start off tomorrow morning with some clouds and sunshine, too. we could have a few showers through the midday tomorrow and then we're still just clouds and sun late in the afternoon. high temperatures tomorrow mid- to upper 80s. it's all dependent on the sunshine. warmer on sunday, 89, cooler on labor day 84. so not a washout but not a perfect weekend by any means. we'll talk about the beaches at 11:00 and a little bit more on the hurricane because we'll have the newest information for both lee and katia. >> katia. >> is that how you say that? >> katia. >> bless you. >> thanks, gary. a national treasure lost to the strong winds of hurricane irene. this 220-year-old oak tree that stood by president john f. kennedy's gravesite fell over during the storm. jackie kennedy carefully selected the site near the oak tree. more than 100 million visitors have walked past that tree since 1963. from the new jobless numbers to former vice president cheney's new book, just some of the topics chris wallace and i talked about today. i asked him about the impact of that jobs report we talked about earlier ahead of president obama's job speech. >> there's no way to spin it, the recovery has absolutely stalled out at least when it comes to producing jobs. i think it was 150,000 jobs a month on average in the first quarter of this year. now we're talking something like 28,000 a he month and as you say -- a month and as zer august. there's no way you can spin it or try to play this. the economy just isn't creating jobs. you would say what could be greater, the president is going to deliver a big speech and this will be a call to arms, but after what we just went through on the debt crisis, i don't know anybody believes that the president can propose something, either one, that will work or two, if it will work that the republican majority in the house will pass it. so we got a big problem and not much of a solution. >> for the everyday american the debt ceiling argument not a how does this impact me now kind of topic, but jobs impact every single person. every single person can relate to that. do you feel like this debate can be different because if this gets too political and it's a lot of bickering and even the fight over what day president obama could speak, if it starts delving down into that minutia in the political realm, do you think the american public will get fed up? >> oh, absolutely. we saw in the polls the ratings for the both the president and congress went way down. there was a thing about throw all the bums out. the problem is i agree with you that jobs are certainly more instantly relatable to people than what the debt is going to be a decade from now, but the solutions aren't any clearer and there's two very different approaches. the president i think in a speech will call for extending some tax cuts for some stimulus spending and republicans are going to say that's exactly the wrong way, that what you got to do is cut spending, get rid of the debt and a lot of the regulation, repeal obamacare, repeal financial regulation. so, you know, it may be a more accessible issue, but i'm not sure the solution is going to be any easier to arrive at or a compromise. >> before i let you go on fox news sunday final on sunday morning here on fox 5 you also have somebody who has been kind of setting inside the beltway
