I think what were hearing from people that live here at the atrium condominiums here on key boulevard in rosslyn is a number of disturbing things involving this case. One certainly the fact that theyve got a 24 hour concierge desk, theyve got a secure entry and even that was not enough to stop this attack from happening. Based on the pictures that arlingtonou some still frames that they took from video, Surveillance Video from inn sigh, the suspect was in around different parts of the building anywhere from little bit more 9 00 oclock in the morning until about 9 45 when this picture here that you see was taken. So he was seen in many areas around the building sunday morning. And Arlington County police say once inside he began knocking on doors claiming he was a maintenance worker. Then when the victim opened her door, police say the man attacked her and sexually assaulted her. Police say they believe perhaps that this suspect was able to kind of sneak in behind somebody who was going they call that piggybacking. Thats the information that they have at this time. We dont know how much more information theyve developed on this suspect. We can tell you the woman actually was her injuries were significant enough that she needed to be hospitalized after this attack so certainly a very serious crime here. One person that we talk to said he thinks he may have seen this lets show you some of those pictures one more time. So folks can get a good look very clear pictures here. Police tell us that he is about 20 years old in that range. And early 20s they say approximately sick feet tall with slim build. Also you see wearing the gray hooded sweatshirt dark pants and backpack black backpack with under armor logo on it. At this point, Arlington County police say this does appear to be a random crime.

More information so they are asking anyone who has anything to add to this to please give them call. Live in rosslyn, Melanie Alnwick fox live local news. Did police say did he try other doors or this was just literally the first person who was going to answer the door he was going to go in their apartment .

President trump meantime trying to follow through on a Clear Campaign commitment. Recommend returning to the white house last night from his golf club in new jersey bracing for yet another fight over health his chief of staff promising to push a Gop Health Plan through the senate after a republican victory in the house that would remove many of obama cares mandates and taxes. But the chief proponent of obama care is calling on members of congress to defend the program that bears his name. It does require some courage to champion the vulnerable and the sick and the infirmed. Former president accepting profiles encourage award at the Kennedy Library but making an unusual for ray into politic for a former president. But the stakes in the senate are high and the administration is preparing. We remember schoolhouse rock when we were kids and im just a bill, yes im only a bill. Well go through that process. Is it ughly . Maybe. Is it slow . Yes. But its the right wayed to it and its how well handle this bill. For republican senators the politics may be dicey. So expect some changes. Some changes is an understatement. This is going toe drastically different bill that comes out of the senate if a bill even emerges at all. Many gop senators are saying the same thing rather than starting the bill that already passed the house theyll pass their own version of Health Care Reform and that likely means well be talking about this for a long time to come.

The incident was up loaded to facebook this weekend it involves two women in the check outline and some controversial comments about muslims. Our bob barnard live in reston this werent with what spark the spat. Bob, what happened here . Reporter well, holly, the lady who recorded the video had let the other woman cut in front of her. That woman said she was in a rush and as they were standing there, apparently, the other woman started making derogatory comments about another shopper who was wearing a head dress. Kind of anti Muslim Statements apparently. So thats why the other lady pulled out her camera. Her phone and started recording. She, too, muslim hears the beginning of that interaction caught on camera. So you played dumb and then you say that everybody is. I got it. Shouldnt have let in you front of me. I wish i didnt let you in the country. Excuse me . Huh . I was born here. I dont know if you oh, you were . Oh, okay. Reporter video continues on. Eventually you will see that womans face there. Eventually youll see her face. She goes on to criticize former president obama calling him a muslim. A friend of the lady who recorded the video posted it on facebook. He lives in south carolina. Put it on his Facebook Page hes parent al comedian has lot of followers and it went viral. A lot of comments. We posted it on our Facebook Page. The fox5 Facebook Page last night, and have generate add lot of comments as well. Here are just few we want to share with you. First of all pam she says she was just voicing her opinion nom violence, nothing physical. Just saying stupid stuff to another lady in the Grocery Store line. Wh annie says, harder to believe that this occurred in reston. Reston is a big melting pot of many cultures. Its been this way for years. And piper says, the fact that people like this continue their rants knowing theyre being recorded shows that theyre very comfortable with their ignorance and they really believe this type of behavior will go without consequence. Sad. And thats it, guys a lot of people obviously blasting the woman for making these apparently racist comments, and others defending her right to say it and saying the other lady why did she record it . We have posted the full video. It starts kind of in the middle of their conversation. But the whole video is out there. Its on our website as well and were just curious what possible think. What you guys think. Hey, just real quick. Has trader joes said anything about this interaction, this interchange . Reporter nothing officially. Although the people here say they recognize the woman in the video. Shes been a customer here. Weve been inside and none of the employees here now over the weekend at the time that this thing was recorded. Bob dorks we know did anything happen or was just a conversation and then the two women went on their way . Reporter we believe they went on their way. Nothing happened more than just this interaction being recorded. The late shed was buying avocados or something and just eventually went on her way. Police were not call. No formal complaint was made. The lady who recorded the video wants to remain anonymous. Shes not looking to do any interviews. Again shared it with a friend who posted it on social media. There is talk in the community about who the lady because you can see her face at one point who that lady is, might she be a teacher in the community . Nothing confirmed. Thats what some people are saying. They recognize her as possibly a teacher in fairfax county. But no name and nothing off official. I hope thats not the case shes a teacher because that really would be deplorable on every level even more so i should say. Thanks, bob. 9 13 is the time.

Iain smith author of widely popular sled series has new book out now also a member of the president s council on physical fitness new book is called blast the sugarhouse. Well find out surprising places where sugar hides and not so prizing places but were going to away to do this the right way. Good to see you doctor. Were drowning in sugar. Lets set up the context. One of those things i feel like we know that. We just like it. We like it. Its addictive. Okay. 29. 1 million type two diabetics, 86 million americans are pre diabetic on the verge every diabetes and millions are addicted to it. I want to show was were actually consuming in one day were consum sugar the average american. 39 teaspoons and one week were doing 3 pounds and in a month just a month were con consuming 13 pounds of sugar for the year its 155 pounds and the problem in the added sugars extra sugars. 66 pounds a year. That sugar can turn into fat, right. Absolutely. Do all kinds of bad things. Were is it . Its in our sugar drinks. This 20ounce soda, 65 grams of sugar. Thats outrageous. Thats almost you know, 16 teaspoons of sugar right h here. Sports drinks, vitamin water, this iced tea 39 grams of sugar. Thats 10 teaspoons much. Thats basically a third of this right here. Already. Just in one drink. The American Heart Association recommends only 9 teaspoons per day for men. Six for women in added sugars and its all here even our pasta sauces 12 grams of sugar 3 teaspoons much lou, at these morning bars it looks good, the guys hiking, 20, sugar in just one bar alone. Its crazy. Look at our cereals. Raise sin bran sounds good, bran is very good for you its a whole grain. Guess, what 18 grams of sugar. This has to be healthy right. It is healthy but still has 13 grams of sugar. So you have to be a good food you have to be a food detective and i want people to realize just look at the labels. Thats the key reading labels. The other key knowing the healthier options when it comes to it. I want to start actually with the drinks because these are some of the biggest predators right here when it comes to the sugar intake because we get so just we want them, we need them and then sometimes were like, ill just have the tea instead of soda or ill have the vitamin water. Seltzer water is great with a little juice if you want to much thats fine. Some unsweetened iced tea is fine. All these are sweetened. Seltzer water, unsweetened aced tea or regular weather was crit suss squeezed in it. Listen if you wanted to things so the book five week plan all spell out. You lose up to 20 pounds in just five weeks and people have dropped their 30 these are types of food. Regular food its simple its effective and its very affordable and its portion controlled so people say i love the plan because im getting a lot of food but remember, with type two diabetes you go into the Doctors Office oh youre prediabetic. You have type two. They dont tell you what to do. Lower your carbs. What does had mean i wanted to write a book that says to people this is what you do every day with options so its simple. Obviously were seeing fish here but also seeing meats that are here as well. What are some go to foods that we can eat that are relatively low in sugar . If youre looking,. Fill us up. If youre looking go with yogurt but greek yogurt and but blueberries in it go were it fruit on the bomb bottom. They already added sugar. Thats right f youre doing pastas go with whole wheat pasta instead of white pasta. Once you put the sauce on it you cannot taste the difference. So these are the kind of swaps. Instead of candy bars, do some nutella on whole grain bre
