As the trooper was seated in the vehicle with the emergency equipment activated. Brad then incredibly another vehicle comes along and pushes that car even farther in the troopers car. He was trapped inside as we said. Suffering critical injuries. Now, the big question, what was up with that driver that seemed to flee an accident and then crash into the trooper . We are told that it is possible that charges will be filed against him. He, too, now is hospitalized. In lanham, brad bell, abc7 news. Maureen thank you. Things are back to normal on metro after a train stopped moving in an underground tunnel. A new 7000 series train stopped right before the rosslyn station.

Cleared up. All of the lanes blocked. Look at the backup. This is a big backup. We are seeing this traffic bumper to bumper. Comparatively seeing you can see the inner loop how traffic is moving. As we move to the maps i want to talk about how big the backup is and where it begins. Seven miles currently and building as we get into the thick of the afternoon rush. You start off with the delays past richie marlboro road and continue north. They are of course diverted you off at route 50 because its just past that point near 450. 13 Miles Per Hour is the average heading northbound on d. C. 295.

And celebrating half a century of a classic, the ford mustang. It was qanda with russian president , Vladimir Putin today. In a live callin show, he answered questions about ukraine, for the first time admitting that Russian Troops were in crimea, and not ruling out russian involvement in eastern ukraine. Pro russian protest, tried to seize a base. 13 killed and others wounded. And ukrainian troops continue with their antiterror campaign, trying to boot out separatists.
