Leave. As all this is unfolding nationally disturbing video was just released showing a Deadly Police shooting in the district. St the officers shot andhe killed a 63yearold man fromro northwest. Take a look. Put gun down. Drop the bleep gun. Bleeun drop the gun. Drop the gun. G drop the gun. Drop the bleep gun. Drop the bleep gun. Get cover, get cover. Go. Put the bleep gun down. Dn. Put the gun down, man. Down,n stay there, bro. [gunfire] shots fired, shots fir the incident that you are inc watching right now happenedngigt last month on barns street northeast. Noheast. The officers responded to reports of a man with a gun. Anh when they arrived they saw theae man was holding what turned t out to be a bb gun. It was pointed at them and asm a you heard he refused to dropo it. The officers then shot the manhe several times killing him. Matthew mall president of thedet d. C. Police union joins youyoins us now. N you . That is absolutely correct. El its just the absolute inappropriate time in the t where the investigation istion right now to release the video. The United States attorneystaao office is still reviewing this t case and investigating it and after the United Statesunit Attorneys Office is done, the n internal Affairs Bureau will investigate this internally with the Police Department p within the Police Department. Some might argue its important for the public toc know what happened in an incident like this. T what do you say to them because the justice angle of this, how it plays out in then Justice System can take aan taka very, very long time in some cases. Case right. I absolutely agree with that. Ith the release of these videos is s vital to keep the police pol department and im sorry,ry, the residents informed of the Police Department. Im just saying at the pointhe in the investigation that we th are right now i inappropriate. After the criminalrimi investigation is done, after the administrative investigation is done, thatsat when we need we need to we release these videos to the public. Publ whether the officers wereicers justified their use ofse force or unjustified. Njustifi but we have to wait until thetih administrative process is procei over. Ov my members have the same duee d process rights as every other citizen in the country and byy releasing the video now, were w in essence hampering ng tampering with that criminal investigation where in thehen current stage that were at. E te let me ask you, the general public will say you know what, a because of this video we havewe a clearer understanding whether you wait until ther criminal investigation isnvtigan over, we do know that the manhe in the video is now deceased. Eca based on what you saw we knowawe its a little hard for you to t hear, based on what you saw, do you feel like your officersee actedl appropriately. Driving right by us rightighr now and i cant hear. And can we apologize to everybodyze right now. You cannot predict redi well ask again. Sk aga we understand there was a firea truck going by. B i was able to watch theble to video this morning and im mnd going to reserve my commentomme until the investigationsestiga over. From what i saw im very im pleased with the way myplsed officers did act. A they were there for almost almos seven minutes pleading with w this gentleman to drop thep t gun. Unfortunately in the end, hend didnt do that. But the restraint that these officers showed i think showshoe the the caliber of officer we ow have working in the nations io capitol. Ca in light of the climate that we see thats going one t right now, certainly weve haded a lot about the Police Shooting in baton rouge also a the incident that happened in minnesota i just want to getwan your overall feeling. People are saying police need pl to be more accountable. Ouab weve heard from police who polw say there needs to be better training. What is your personal thought on the climate of whats goingma on right now in america . So, the climate that werewee in we have a few high profil being portrayed in the media med on a constant basis and iasis a dont want to go into what int happened in louisiana or in minnesota. Es theyre very younge ve young investigations and i think weig wait until were done to seeo the whole picture. Ic i absolutely agree, we have to have an accountable policeleolie department. We have to hold our officersoldi accountable and i think thats what the Body Worn Camera cam program does in the agency, ity, hold us responsible and a accountable for our actions to o the community. The mmunity. The training that we have and ad we receive is top notch t n training that all our officers a have to go through and thet nn the in Service Training eachg officer has to go through every year. Fop president matthew mallsi thanks for joining us. We appreciate it. Ppr thank you.

A t and you know what yound notice tony some cloud coverou came over and so it made it ad i little less brutal and whilend i the humidity is still up there, it didnt feel as badt d because we had a bit moreuse hb cloud cover. Okay. Oka thats going to happen again tomorrow, by the way andtt the clouds are protecting usctg from seeing more widespreadidea thunderstorms although perhapsha youd like to have ayo thunderstorm because it would cool the atmosphere at leastrmst briefly near your area but werea have a few clouds around butd bt today is day three up and overr 90 degrees. One of the cooler days of thehe stretch. Tomorrow should be the hottestd day of the stretch and thatsnd our weather he tomorrow. We want you to be ready for rdyr another hot one that will beone coming your way withay w temperatures and humiditynd humt combining to feel like the triple digits again. Digits agan not bad. Dulles at 90. Bwi 91.

As 9 frederick 88 degrees and annapolis 88 degrees with8 grees leonardtown coming in at 90. Heres the heat index, thet in combination of heat andea humidity feeling like 96 again here in the district, 98 fort,8f manassas and 100 for fredericksburg feeling like 96 k in frederick, 95 for, 95 leonardtown and annapolis. An so were going to keep that 90ha holding tough at 7 oclock. Isolated thunderstorm orerm shower. Best chance of seeing thatncg would be south. We have a few right now whichoww ill show in you a moment. A mom we could still see that at 9 oclock but i think d. C. On. North for the most part part probably staying dry. 11 oclock partly cloudy o skies, 84 degrees. csks, 84 de and our satellite and radar,te r we have a little bit of a thinner in the weak area of low pressure passing by to our south. By to o. You can see that spinning and theres even a little bit ofs ev not only cloud cover over our o area but a couple of showers that have developed. E developed. This first one pushing into pusg charles county, it has some pretty good downpours with itooo but im not seeing any any lightning. G. It also appears to be movingarsm rather slowly. Ther swly. So, it crossed the potomac here is that just south ofth port tobacco village and illlai put it in motion. You can see that its pretty ist much moving from due west to t east and it appears to beea t getting a little bit larger soge you may get some welcome rain there in western portions ofor charles county. Arle another area were watchingatch between Harrison Burg andur stanton on interstate 81, that1, is also rather slow mover andw it appears to be drifting toto the southeast and one or twoo other Little Things popping uple here around louisa and maybe spotsylvania will get in ont in that. It will be fairly isolated andla it will stay more to thehe south. Tomorrow while well have another hot day we also have at bit of a player in the upperlayu atmosphere, a stronger frontongt thats going to get closer andor theres a risk of more stormse and maybe some of them could t side in the afternoon. In fact Storm Prediction Center says in the yellow areas you have a slight risk of seeing strong andve severe sev storms but we would also say that if we get more cloudwe mor cover maybe they wont be so so strong but the risk forhe risk r tomorrow would be gusty windsguy and hail. An a low risk for any kind of tornado, low risk for flash f f flooding although certainly there could be some brief heavy rain with any of thosee storms. Meanwhile were headed for 95d f tomorrow with that increasingre chance for some thunderstorms. Sr and a lot of places low and low mid 90s. D that will be day four of theof heat wave but you know what,yo we can do something about thatut this weekend. It will still be hot saturday,ur well be into the 90s again a but a second front coming will bring a drop in the humidity hum and drop our temperatures intos the upper 80s and while it doesnt sound like much ieuc guarantee you its going to goi feel a lot better with there north breeze chasing theh humidity out of town.
