Reporter and as you just heard the guards are regularly armed. We dont know though whether there was any exchange of gun fire between the gunmen and those Security Guards. We just dont have that detail at this point. Police dont have a lot that theyre sharing. No word on a possible motive here or a lookout for any suspects. For a while we had a closure down on Central Avenue as well. 214. They had some evidence markers there. That has reopened. And traffic is now moving through the area but here at the apartment complex, theyre going to be here for a while yet. Now, well toss it over to Melissa Mollet with more on traffic. Good morning, megan. So as megan just said, Central Avenue is now open. We were shut down, about a mile worth shut down for some time. Overall, Prince Georges County looking good road wise. Dont have any major problems. Big look at the beltway here. Also inner and outer look. Had the disabled loop, top of the beltway, thats out of the way. Tom . Another pleasant summ
To the president s side. This is at the petersons house directly across the street from fords theater. Barnes calls for something called a probe and when he founted that in the back here on display. The idea with the probe was that it would be threaded into the wound with the idea that depending on how far into the wound the probe would go might identify where the fragment or bullet was. They werent able to do so. The bullet they found later ended up being lodged behind lincolns right eye. But the probe was retained and eventually made its way into the museums holdings and is part of the exhibit we have here on display. Surgeon general barnes and Army Medical Museum staff John Woodward and another surgeon named Edward Curtis were at the president s bedside in the hours before he died, which was about 7 22 the next morning, the 15th of april, 1865. It was decided then that a postmortem would be performed very quickly and the president s body was removed to the white house and the autops
That exact moment. Curtis reflects on it by saying something to the effect of this is a lead ball for which we cant yet for measure the calams effect. The autopsy is completed and some fragments of lincolns skull were retained by surgeons who assisted at the autopsy and in one case some fragment was stuck on some of dr. Curtis tools and as he was cleaning his surgical kit later that day he found a bit of lincolns skull fragments stuck in one of the saws. We also have on display a bit of lincolns hair removed from the site of the wound during the autopsy. Several locks of hair are accounted for in the notes from those hours before lincoln died and during his autopsy. These are just a few of those that were cut and given away to different people. Another object, though, thats on display relates again to dr. Curtis. Edward curtis, a staff on the medical museum was an assistant at the autopsy. When he got home that night, the 15th of april, after the autopsy, he discovered that his undersh
