Weather risks what were most at threat for. I have got more data coming in and i will be back. All right. Thanks. Now to an unsolved case prompting new action tonight a local reporter was used as a human shield during a shooting in southeast dc. Her killers are still out there. And its how they got away that led to calls from leaders in the city today. She was shot and killed in may. Police tell tus gunman was riding in a group of 14 dirt bikers and was trying to shoot at someone in another group of riders.
