The deceased range in age from 77 years old to an infant just 18 months old. Were learning more about the suspect in this horrible crime. It appears tonight that he took his own life. Texas Law Enforcement officers say he had three gunshot wounds, two from a citizen who tried to stop him and the third appears to be selfinflicted. The suspects name is Devin Patrick kelley. He was 26. He spent four years in the air force. He was courtmartialed and given a bad conduct discharge in 2014. Investigators believe that the shooting started with a domestic dispute. Kelley had a history of them. So lets zero in on that. Fbi profilers weve spoken to say a history of Domestic Violence in the suspects past is not a surprise and heres a tough statistic, but its an important one to share. If you are involved in a relationship where there is Domestic Violence and a gun is in the home, you are 500 more likely to end up dead. The ne on a wave of tough memories for hundreds of people, among them lisa oneil. She managed to escape the Washington Navy yard as a gunman opened fire there in 2013 killing 12 people. I think back to what i went through and i feel really sorry for the people that have to go through this because it is a very emotional thing and its tough. I dont understand why we have to keep reliving this, why theres so many people out in the world that want to go ahead and hurt innocent people and its very confusing to me. Its frustrating to me, but i really feel sorry for the families that have to go through this. Texas, las vegas, newtown, columbine, heres a question were hearing all over the place. Is this the new normal . Debra alfarone has that part of the story told by three people who have been to hell and back. I think this is not the normal that daughter was shot twice and survived the Virginia Tech massacre. If a candidate for whoever office, local, state or federal office, is not a supporter of gun violence prevention, dont vote for them. Rabbi praver was the rabbi at the only synagogue in newtown, connecticut, when the sandy hook massacre happened. We need you to draw very deep into the well springs of your faith. Nobody is ever prepared for Something Like this. We werent. Youre not. Nobody should get used to a mass shooting in a church or a school or anywhere. Andrea powell of d. C. Is a victim of random gun violence. Its not just about guns. Its about the people who access them. Its about educating individuals about other ways to deal with their problems. Were all connected and we have to start to care about the person next to us and the person a victim equally. Debra alfarone, wusa9. What do you think about when you hear the word terrorism . A man drives a truck into a crowd in new york city killing eight people. Now 26 people are shot and killed in a church in texas. Both are horrible mass casualty attacks that happened just a week apart. President trump and others lit up on social media calling it terrorism, but the president s tweets about texas dont. That led to some confused and frustrated people tweeting why isnt this texas case an act of terror . Our verify researchers went to the fbi and text of u. S. Law. It comes down to intent or why a person did it. A motive has to be connected to some sort of political, religious or ideological extremism for it to be considered terrorism. Now that was clear in the new york attack last week after authorities found materials from the suspect pledging the determination is even more clear cut when prosecutors decide whether to charge somebody with a terrorism related crime. The u. S. Code lays out specific legal definitions for domestic terrorism and international terrorism. Again, if they dont meet the level of intent, they wont be classified as a terrorist act. So while you may be seeing posts on social media calling for the Sutherland Springs case to be called terrorism, our researchers found legally speaking unless authorities uncover a new motive, it wont be considered terrorism. As you might expect after a mass shooting, plenty of thoughts and prayers from congress, no serious talk, though, about gun control, just a reminder both parties supported looking at regulating those things called bump stocks after the las vegas shooting. So far that hasnt gone anywhere on capitol hill. We take a closer look at the debate over gun control in a story Stephanie Ramirez has on www. Wusa9. Com right now. While youre there you can hear woman who survived the Virginia Tech shooting. Sometimes it feels like theres more bad than good. So we want to help fix that with some acts of kindness. I went out to shaw with a couple hundred buck and what happened next was absolutely priceless. Bucks and what happened next was absolutely priceless. What if i told you, miss ruby, that i have 100 that i want to just give to you as a random act of kindness . Is it real . Can i hug you for this . Reporter of course. Thank you, thank you. Reporter my goodness, yes. Ms. Santa claus. Reporter now i need your help, miss ruby. Okay. Reporter i have another 100 that i want you to give to somebody. Okay. Reporter can we find somebody out here that we can give it to and make their day . The lady that i was just talking to. Reporter you want to get her . Now listen, you cant tell her that were about to do this. Im not. Im not. Reporter just go get her and tell her to come out. She went in there . Reporter yeah. Okay. Now just wait until you see who ruby was excited to grab for that other 100 bill. Its a wonderful story and youll see the rest of it tomorrow morning on wakeup washington at 6 45. Then join us tomorrow night for another random act of kindness. We need more of those, right . Now to a story youll see only on wusa9, a local woman speaking out tonight after her dog died at a pet boarding facility in d. C. In july. The owners of that facility are adamant they didnt do anything wrong. Wusa9 special assignment unit reporter whitney wild. Dax has been the one constant in my life and he meant the world to me. Reporter a few years after she became a customer of wae facility in northwest, this woman boarded her dog at the second location, wagtime ii in southeast. She asked us not to use her name. We went to alaska and as a result of that, i needed to board dax. Reporter dax never tape home. Nine days after dax came home. Nine days after dax arrived at wagtime ii his owner said a puppy picked dax on his back killing him. The death shocked daxs owner. The website advertises 24 hour attention and care and separation by size and temperament. My understanding was dax was going to be placed in a pen with dogs his size around his age and that he would be supervised 24 7. Reporter she has now filed a lawsuit against wagtime seeking 150,000. She says wagtime was negligent in putting a 6monthold 18 1 2 pound shelter dog in the elderly and tiny area a 12yearold 4 1 2 pound yorkshire terrier. Lisa schreiber owned wagtime llc and Station Wagon time ii. What about the allegation that and wagtime ii. What about the allegation that some negligence was involved . I dont see how. The rescue dog was a puppy. They had been together for a week, same room, no problem. What happened with dax was a very unfortunate incident, one that nobody really could have predicted. Reporter they dont dispute dax died there but say a cage free environment comes with some risk. Theyre unpredictable because they are animals. They are not people. Reporter the lawsuit says wagtime misrepresented services, specifically that daycare zones would be divided into classes separated by dog size and temperament and wagtime provided a specific elderly class zone where dax would be placed. Wagtimes website advertises its fully separate and secure small and elderly dog zones. Wve nor do we have that here. Reporter on your website theres a mention of it. We have it at wag 1. We have a senior dog room. Here we do not. Reporter on the website it doesnt specify which services are for which location, so do you see how she can be confused . No. Reporter plainly our dog is safe here. Absolutely. Its tough. I live alone and i miss him. Reporter daxs owner said she wants the district to implement tougher regulation on dog borders. Wagtime says this is the first time a dog has ever died inside the facility. They insist their staff spends 24 hours per day inside the same room as the dogs. Whitney wild, wusa9.

Grandmother had with her 16 yearold grandson, a conversation about what the first time driver should do if he were ever pulled over by police. My special assignment unit report tells how that chat motivated the mother, grandmother and virginia lawmaker to push for a change to keep traffic stops from ending tragically for Young Drivers. You look to your left and your right. Turn your windshield wiper on, too. I would say my big concern would be a Police Officer pulling him over. He grabs him or something and, you know, something escalates. Years ago it happened to me, you know. So it could happen. Turn on the signal. Orlando crouch wants his son darrius to learn more than just the dos let them take off first. Behind the wheel driving in stafford county. Dad is confident his son his obey the rules of the road, but both share an unexpected Police Encounter could turn deadly. Young black people are getting killed or injured for no reason. They point to cases covered in the news or shared on social media. A turn signal is a big enough of a crime for you to feel like you need to take out your service pistol. As proof, especially encounters involving black males. Its not fair. I feel like we should all know the correct way to solve this. Reporter the solution was found 109 miles south of d. C. In the State Capitol of the commonwealth of virginia. Knowledge is power. Reporter a knowledge Virginia State delegate juwan ward said all Young Drivers should be empowered with if they get stopped by police. I knew there had to be when her grandson got his learners permit. Thats when she knew it was time to have a talk with him, the same one she gave her sons decades ago. The lawmaker then searched the code about drivers and police pullovers. There was all types of information, but nothing was listed on what to do if youre ever pulled over by Law Enforcement. Reporter so ward wrote a bill that is now law. It requires virginias Public Schools to teach teens taking drivers ed how to deal with a Police Traffic stop. [ bell ringing ] hi, guys. Reporter this potential life saving lesson starts in the classroom. Almost every driver gets pulled over by Law Enforcement at least once during their driving career. Reporter the instructor leads about 40 Briarwood High School students through a power point presentation. They want to let you know why they pulled you over. Reporter of safe steps and procedures to follow during a one of the things they talk about and emphasize is that a Police Officer can only react to a situation. Its the actions of the driver in the car that sets the stage for how things go during the traffic stop. Guys, were going to be over here. Reporter its here in the schools parking lot where some of the 10th graders traffic stop virginia, victor, kilo. Reporter are put under mock pullovers under the watchful eye of their teacher and deputy mike senate to test what theyve learned and how they will react. Now that ive got you stopped unfortunately i notice youre not wearing your seatbelt. Whats going on this morning . Sorry, sir. I was kind of late to class. So i just hopped in, forgot to put it on the seatbelt. Whether or not you feel the traffic stop was justified im sorry, i was trying to get home before curfew. Think about your safety. Follow whatever it is that the officer is telling you to do with the idea thats going to be the safest decision for yourself. Like keeping their hands in view and not moving around and staying calm and not getting out of the car. The reason for the speed this morning . Unfortunately i have a job to do. You have two violations. I did write you a summons. I went back and looked at the registration. The tags expired in august. Oh, god. Its not the end of the world. Reporter the sheriffs deputy doesnt soft pedal the drill. Critics and skeptics say teaching Young Drivers to comply with Law Enforcement does not necessarily save lives. People could be in the trunk. Reporter retired cop eric paul now instruct Young Drivers on safe steps instructs Young Drivers on safe steps to follow during a traffic stop. Eric, because of your walk in the world, do you still worry about young people that look like you even if they take this course that this traffic stop may not end the way you want it to . I worry about people in general because the fear of the mindset of people, anything can happen. Reporter he tells the future drivers to remember the two cs. A conversation versus a confrontation. Police are stopping you to talk, not to confront you. Reporter has this exchange changed maybe how you feel about Police Officers . Yeah. I mean i used to think that i should be a little wary, but now i know that as long as i do what im supposed to do, ill always be 100 safe. You got to kind of stop and kind of creep out there a little bit. Reporter as for new driver darrius, his dad hopes the education in traffic stops will be an extra layer in protection when his son is driving alone. Hopefully it will teach them to try to relax, you know, and hopefully abide what the Police Officer is saying and try to get out of that situation. Even though the traffic stop curriculum is drawing mixed reaction, there is agreement that the goal is to get Young Drivers to and from their activists argue its just as important to educate Police Officers not to be biased against certain people. Virginia delegate juwan ward said she will work to introduce a bill that will do just that.
