Both occupants were transported to the hospital with nonlifethreatening injuries. Right now theyre looking in a wooded area along that roadway but theyre canvassing the whole area of that part of the intercounty connecter off the road. Right now we cannot confirm exactly how many shots were in the vehicle. Theyll obviously take all of the evidence and see if theres bullets or shell casings around. Theyll hopefully gather that information and be able to determine how many shots were fired. So all of this tonight disturbing and very mysterious.

After a three andahalf hour closed door meeting with supervisors on personnel matters, moments ago the county attorney announced he will retire and reorganize the office. This after a serious discussion with supervisors about problems with communication and information sharing. Reporter Fairfax County chairman won the boards approval for a new commission to review Police Practices following missteps in the investigation of a Fatal Police Shooting. Three Board Members objected to the commission. We want to ensure that if criminal charges are appropriate that the Commonwealth Attorney can successfully prosecute. I have a very strong feeling that we are going to muddy the waters of transparency. Reporter theres been strong criticism over the handling of the investigation in to the Police Shooting of john gear and some are pointing the finger at the county attorney. It was his office that told police to withhold internal affairs files from county attorney ray morrogh unable to move forward with his investigation, he shipped the case to the justice department. Well be asking for a certain county attorney, county attorneys to determine it. Reporter springfield supervisor pat herrity said he would call for the resignation of him and another attorney in his office.

If you thought the districts brand new Marijuana Law might allow you to get your buzz on at the local watering hole the dc council is saying slow your role. And today they moved to restrict marijuana use in bars and clubs. Advocates of the new law say thats not what the voters wanted last november when they approved the legalization of pot. Im calling order to this meeting. Reporter they voted to ban pot smoking in bars, private clubs and just about every place outside the home. This way we can make sure its not popping up in neighborhoods, private clubs in a road House Community where theres a lot of coming and going. The people of the district are voting to end marijuana prohibition. Reporter two of the seats are vacant but i did a poll of the remaining 11 Council Members and wanted to find out who actually has tried marijuana. Nine of the 11 Council Members admit theyve at least tried marijuana in the past. Yvette alexander is the only one who said shes never ever smoked reefer. Advocates last week applauded the law legalizing marijuana. Today those same advocates were criticizing the bill that restricts where pot can be smoked indoors. This is unfortunately reestablishing some of those criminal penalties public consumption of marijuana will leave you with a misdemeanor. The irony is that the council and the mayor would like to have business selling marijuana that way the city could tax that revenue estimated at more than 130 million a year. Bruce johnson from northwest washington, wusa 9. We should note mayor bowser is the one who asked for that emergency bill restricting pot smoking in bars and clubs. Army general David Petraeus pleaded guilty to sharing classified information with his former mistress Paula Bradwell while she was writing his bigography. The information included war strategy, intelligence capabilities and the names of covert officers. Petraeus resigned from the cia in 2012 after the fbi started investigating and that investigation revealed his affair with broadwell. Hes petraeus speaking in march of 2013. This has obviously been a very difficult episode for us. But perhaps my experience can be instructive to others who stumble or indeed fall as far as i did. Under a plea agreement petraeus would serve two years probation and pay a fine of 40,000. It might not seem like it quite yet but very soon.

Thats where the coldest pool of air is right now. Primarily once this rolls through see the back edge of the precip going to kind of taper off tonight. Nothing really heavy. Well zoom in a little bit. A little bit of light rain in sterling. A little bit of a mix as you get up to laurel past columbia. Its plain or rain and roads are wet. No refreezing tonight. Just wet.

A little bit of shower activity. Nothing crazy heavy. Enough to keep the roads wet though. By 6 p. M. Tomorrow now were seeing kind of steadier rain develop kind of lining up west of i95 with temperatures in the 40s. Then as colder air begins to move down, that rain is going to turn to snow. Ms. Again surface temperature 37 at national 6 a. M. Thursday with blue. The column of air will support snow before the surface temperatures catch up. Thats one reason accumulation is going to be very very tricky. That said, by 1 00, everybody is in the 20s with some pretty good snow still going on. Roads will just go downhill so to speak as we go through the day. Even by 3 00 on thursday we have snow pretty much across the metro area, all the way down to the northern neck. Lets break this down. Temperatures in the 40s, light rain and showers to start. 48 at 1 00. Were going to try to make 50 tomorrow, try to make 50. Well say 50. Light rain and showers milder. Snow on thursday. Temperatures falling. Mostly sunny and cold on friday. Highs only in the upper 30s. Thats with full sun. Its a pretty cold day. Next seven days at least were dry over the weekend. Were getting there.

Just over 20 games left and tonight the Washington Wizards head out on the road to the windy city. Theyre not only looking to build on the momentum after snapping a sixgame skid but theyre looking ahead to had playoffs. Right now the bulls have the series edge, but a win would tie it up for the wiz and have major implications in the eastern conference. Getting to that point coming down 22 games last time were going to play them in the regular season. So we win this, you win the tiebreaker. So yeah this is a big game. The Washington Capitals tonight also looking for their second straight win taking on the columbus blue jackets. Its an even bigger night for forward joel ward. Tonight hell play his 500th game. An incredible feat considering ward was originally passed over by every team in the nhl draft when he was 18. I always dreamed about just playing one game. Then i got to the game and i wanted to play a full year. I never really dreamed i always dreamed of playing in the league but never really dreamed of playing 500 getting to that milestone. 500 games. Wow. The maryland terrapins going dancing for the first time in four years. Since theyre now a top 10 team, they have a rather large target on their back. Their opponents would love nothing more than to play spoiler. Up first is rutgers. The team having quite the exact opposite kind of inaugural big 10 season than the it than the terps are. Its never easy on the road. Its never easy at home either but we find ways to win so thats been the story of this team. Trying to do the best we can against rutgers. The georgetown hoyas have a good chance to get in but could really help themselves with a strong finish. Tonight is a big east dogfight. Coach is looking for more than just a win from his guys. Its also a way for him to get a good indicator of where his team stands right now. Is it a big road game . Yes. But im not sure if this game is essential to who we are. American eagles finished the season 1515 not good enough to get them in to the ncaa tournament. If they want in, they have to win the league tournament. Conference tournament that means winning three straight games starting with lehigh on thursday but shouldnt be too hard for the eagles, right . Make it sound like winning three games is easy. Honestly its hard to think about it that way. Weve got a tough test thursday. Our mindset is completely focused on that. Can they do it, derek . Yes, they can. Anything is possible. At least get to the dance. Were not expect ing you to go all the way. But get there. They have a good chance but they have to win the tournament. Thats always tough. Were okay tonight.
