e was another raid. we heard from neighbors at the time that they were tired of seeing the drug traffic. seeing the people walk up and down the street. at the time, the police seized guns, made two arrests, also seized a good deal of drugs but they say the activity did not stop. it started up again. so they came back here today. we're told that inside this home, there are a number of people. at this point, there are several that are outside as well. a dog is being brought in right now that's going to be sniffing around the house. you can take a look at that dog going in for you to search for drugs. some people did try to run away and they were apprehended by police. some of them were seen throwing drugs. that's what we're showing you the picture on the phone. this operation is still under way. authorities inside the home with the swat -- what we call the swat team, special operations unit here in the county was inside. we can hear banging, and they were breaking down doors. breaking plaster and dry wall to see if anyone was hiding.

we'll let you know what they end up with right now. it's a very fluid situation, ongoing raid. quite a scene here in upper marlboro and by the way, this is really just about a quarter mile away from the county office building and from the courthouse right along very busy marlboro pike. back to you. >> all right, thank you, brad. now, as brad mentioned, police raided the same location back in september. in that raid, they made the arrest of two suspected drug dealers and hundreds of doses of crack cocaine and percoset. police first investigated the yard, as it's known following an on none mus tip. >> a judge has ordered fairfax county police to turn over internal affairs documents for that officer accused of killing an unarmed man. court documents show officer adam torres shot and killed john geer during a stand-off back in august 2013. but it took until this past month with a court order from fairfax county police to release

any details on the case. northern virginia bureau chief jeff goldberg has followed this case since day one. he was in court today and here with the newest twist in all of this. jeff? >> alison, we just heard moments ago from the best friend of john geer that and he and the family of mr. geer are pleased with today's ruling saying authorities must be held accountable in this case. the internal affairs investigation into the shooting started last september more than a year after the shooting took place. today in court a judge ruling that fairfax county must turn over findings from that investigation as well as an investigation into an incident that took place here at the courthouse in 2013. attorneys for the family of john geer argue that officer adam torres had anger issues raising questions as to whether he should have been on the street and armed the day he shot john geer in august of 2013. documents released last week reveal torres admitted to having a fight with his wife right

before arriving on scene. and in march of 2013 five months before the shooting at the fairfax county courthouse an assistant commonwealth attorney testified to having an argument with torres about a d.w.i. case. he had a total meltdown charles peters said. he was a total jerk to me. today, the fairfax county assistant attorney argued that torres's conduct on any other date is simply not relevant to whether he was negligent on august 29, 2013. but the judge ruled internal affairs findings from the investigation should be released. as for the findings from the shooting, attorneys for the geer family accused of county of hiding the truth saying it's smelling of a cover-up. so justice and transparency will be thwarted. in a taped interview after the shooting adam torres told investigators he did nothing wrong. >> it was justified. i have no doubt about that at all. i don't feel sorry for shooting the guy at all.

>> documents and information from the internal affairs investigation must be turned over to the attorneys of the family of john geer by february 20th. the investigation into the shooting remains in the hands of the u.s. justice department. live in fairfax, jeff goldberg, abc 7 news. >> there is some relief in sight now after two frigid days across the area. chief meteorologist doug hill in the storm watch weather center with a first look at the weekend. hi doug. >> hi there. starting out with chilly temperatures in the mid 30's right now. drop to 20's tonight with the promise of a warmer weekend, it's the real deal. let's get you started with a live look at the camera in woodbridge. little breaks in the overcast. cloud cover you see there in woodbridge pretty much the same story across most of the area. 37 in hagerstown and frederick now. 38 at reagan national. 39 in fredricksburg and we'll drop into the 20's this evening. about 32 at 11:00. 7:00 a.m. about 28 degrees. then it warms up again.

>> it's scary. it's scary. >> investigators found the victim in a second floor apartment, apparently. the cause of death looked to be some kind of trauma to the upper body. while forensic experts combed the scene for clues investigators tried to find out who had had contact with the victim. >> i don't have her age as of right now. but, you know, we're still looking into that to identify her. as of right now, we do not have any definitive suspect descriptions to offer you. >> her aunt lives here. she says while the condominium is fairly mixed, she believes most residents are senior citizens. >> mostly elderly people walking around going to the garage. >> prince george's county investigators do tell us they believe this was an isolated incident. that there is no imminent threat to any other occupants of this condominium building. stephen tschida, abc 7 news. >> investigators say the two people killed in yesterday's murder/suicide at the university of south carolina were involved in a relationship.

police have yet to identify the woman who shot and killed 45-year-old professor raja fayed and then killed herself. authorities say fayed had a long term relationship with the shooter but provided no other details. the woman's name is being withheld until her next of kin are notified. >> we're following a developing story in the war against isis tonight. the terror group is claiming an american woman they've been holding hostage has died in a jordanian air strike. the white house was quick to say there's no evidence to support that claim. now, this comes amidst growing international outrage against the terror group. susan salney is tracking those new developments. >> the terror group isis is claiming to an american woman it had been holding hostage is dead killed isis claims, when jordanian war planes bombed an isis stronghold in northern syria where the hostage was being held. in a statement on twitter, the terror group identified the woman as 26-year-old american aid worker kayla mueller.

it had been known that isis was holding one american hostage. this was the first time her identity was revealed. isis did not provide proof. and american officials said they were not able to confirm the claim. >> we do not at the present have any evidence to corroborate isis' claims. but obviously, we'll keep reviewing the information at hand. >> secretary kerry our team in this building across the u.s. government are putting every effort behind finding any americans being held overseas. >> jordan was already a partner with the u.s. and other countries in the fight against isis. but it has ramped up its efforts after the militants killed a captured jordanian pilot who had been held hostage. the gruesome images of the pilot being burned alive sparked widespread fury. several thousands marched through jordan's capital today in support of king abdullah's pledge of a tough military response to isis which has claimed large parts of syria and iraq. >> no one against them.

and find them. >> isis has misled the public before about the state of hostages. and its statement today contained discrepancies about where and when kayla mueller might have died. >> the escalating terror threat is the subject of a new town hall discussion to air on our sister station, newschannel 8. "your voice, your future town hall fight for freedom" is scheduled for monday night at 7:00. you can sign up to be in the audience at wjla.com/town hall. >> ahead here on abc 7 news at 5:00, it's known as the intersection of doom. but now, there's a simple change that engineers hope will make a big difference. >> plus a new revelation from d.c. fire about just how many of its firefighters have not undergone specialized training to be able to deal with an emergency on metro. >> virginia lawmakers work to tackle what some call an ar5 archaic law. >> in oxen hill a woman fears

>> a call for help tonight from an oxon hill woman who is

watching helplessly as sink hole after sink hole opens up in the yard of her home of 45 years. the problem has gotten so bad, she fears she may have to evacuate her property. "7 on your side" investigator chris pabst met with the woman today and he's checking in now live. chris, what's the situation there? >> leon this situation looks really bad. the yard that i'm standing in right here has six sink holes and this one right here this opened up last month in january. it doesn't look like too much from the outside. only about two feet wide by one foot. but if you get down in there and that sink hole is about 10 to 12 feet deep and, perhaps just as wide and the lady who lives here, she's a 78-year-old widow and she has no idea what she's going to do about this. for the past 45 years, this has been lucy webnar's home. >> i don't know. i'm panicked. >> she fears her days here are now numbered. after this sink hole opened in january. >> i'm pretty upset.

>> for the past 20 years, webnar's backyard in oxon hill has been dropping. just recently, it's gotten much worse. now, she has six sink holes. there's two more in her neighbor's yard. at 78 years old, she's not sure how much longer she can live here by herself. with the backyard in this condition, she can't sell. >> you fell in this sink hole. >> yes. >> then you filled it. >> fill it up. >> sink holes are fairly common. so common they have their own website. sink hole.org which can help. the tab, what to do offers suggestions for if a sink hole opens on your property such as close off the area, contact your home owner's insurance and have the ground tested. there's also a number to call. unfortunately for webnar her home owner's insurance does not fix sink holes and she can't pay

someone to fix it. >> i don't know. nobody can give me no answers. >> she has reached out to her water company, wssc and prince george's county. both of them said they can't do anything to help her. but today "7 on your side" did contact the county and we were told they're going to send somebody back out here. look at this situation, investigate and try to find out what exactly happened here. live in oxon hill chris pabst, abc 7 news. >> thanks chris. we learned about this woman's problem through a tip that we received on our "7 on your side." if you have a problem you need us to look into for you, let us know by sending us an e-mail to tips at wjla.com and you can call the "7 on your side" help desk and maybe we can take a look at your problem and help you out. >> all right. the west coast is preparing for a wet and windy weekend. a major storm system could dump several inches of rain along the coast from seattle all the way to san francisco. many residents are concerned

about flooding and possible mudslides there, too. right now, they're filling sandbags and clearing drains ahead of the expected rainfall. it won't make much of a dent in california's drought, unfortunately. >> go through all that and not have it help the drought. >> they refer to it as the pineapple express. low pressure develops in the tropical pacific and slings the moisture too far north to help the south of california but northern california got some rain. and pacific northwest and some of thate is going to wind up contributing to another heavy snow event for monday into tuesday in new england. so everything in the atmosphere is interconnected. >> all connected. >> here, we're just trying to concentrate on getting a bit warmer for everybody for a couple of days. that's on the way. let's get started right now. a look at conditions just up in the road in arlington, another beautiful sunrise and a lot of blue sky. quickly decks of clouds came through every now and then during the afternoon we have more breaks in the overcast. and i think that's going to be the story here as we head through the evening. now, some sunshine getting through here. we still have the decks of clouds. we'll call partly to mostly

cloudy for the overnight hours as well. as far as the temperatures it's running cold but comfortably so. centreville, 34. high of 35. this is live data that you see at weather bug. they went back and forth. right between 34 and 35 degrees. 36 is the report now in hagerstown. 37 is the high very light westerly breeze as we speak. the numbers are a bit higher to the west through the valleys, up to 41 in luray and winchester. 42 in charlottesville but mostly the 30's elsewhere. tomorrow mostly in the 40's. start off with a chilly wake-up. 28. there will be considerable cloudiness early in the morning and overnight. and the winds will be nice and light as well. so we'll get through the day tomorrow and look for those clues to what's going to happen. first, you can see the cloud cover during the day kind of move through. the clouds are thinning out. we'll have some clouds tonight. that's happening higher up in the atmosphere. here on the surface, the winds keep pushing out of the south. in time here over the weekend, we'll get more of that mild air drawn northward. that's good if you like milder

temperatures. that will be the story. 47 right now in asheville. 52 degrees in nashville. so the winds will change in our favor. cold air will be pushed back to the north temporarily, essentially will catch up with us again. but in the short term, our futurecast shows some sunshine tomorrow. high pressure moves off the southeast coast. that sets us up nicely to get a warm return flow. leading edge of the warm air. upper 40's to near 50 tomorrow. get into the day on sunday and same kind of picture with some sunshine and the clouds mixed together. temperatures getting into the 50's. but for the morning, we'll call it partly cloudy and 32 at 9:00 a.m. 4 45 at midday and 50 in the afternoon with partly cloudy skies. look ahead to the day on sunday and look at the possibility of temperatures getting a bit warmer. into the upper 50's in spots and holding the rain off until the day on monday. this is one of the deals we've been watching the possibility all week of some rain sunday night. but computer model suggests the front is going to slip south and take the good old sweet time. may not really affect us until sometime monday with a chance of some rain. highs still near 50.

could turn briefly colder late monday and there's a possibility it could be a wet snow flake or two at the end of this system and clearing out and being rather tranquil and rather seasonal as we head through tuesday, wednesday, thursday of next week. look at friday, 28 for a high. this is only temporary. going back to a deep freeze a week from today. >> yeah, at least sunday looks nice, then. >> nice break. >> all right, thank you. see you in a bit. >> now, making a difference. that's the goal of a training program aimed at youths in our area called the youth leadership of greater washington. and i got to tell you, we met some really really interesting and smart young people today. about 30 high school seniors and one junior. they gathered to learn about key issues affecting our region. talk about those issues and the role of diversity and shaping the future of this region and our country. and looking there to people who we may end up working for some day. >> they had some really good question. >> really good question. >> i have to say this group may have asked some of the best

questions as well. nice going today. >> insightful, huh? >> uh-huh. >> all right. coming up here on abc 7 news at 5:00, more concerns for metro. passengers report more smoke in the tunnel and fire on a train. many d.c. firefighters haven't been trained for such disasters. >> training for disaster. inside look of military training. >> a law virginia mothers need to know about amidst some new efforts to overhaul it. >> first, though here's a look ahead tonight on primetime.

fed every single one of her children. while she's allowed to breast-feed in public places owned, run or leased by the commonwealth, she was forced to leave an alexandria rest center this week. the city says it wasl a mistake. >> go ahead, go color. >> olivia blackmon is a ph.d. student and mother of five. >> you have to play for five minutes. >> in the privacy of her home, she breast-feeds her 6-month-old daughter amelia and she did the same thing covered up at the rec center in alexandria this week which is run by the city. >> attendant there said it was part of the policy of the rec center that you can't nurse in the playroom. >> the city apologized to her. >> the city of alexandria has no policy whatsoever prohibiting breast-feeding in any city facilities. we're welcoming of all of our customers and especially in a recreation center we want all families to feel comfortable. >> while it has as always been the law to allow nursing in publicly owned spots in

virginia, a virginia house of delegates bill just approved we'll let mothers nurse anywhere in public and private places. it makes virginia one of the last states to do this. >> i'm surprised it's taken this long for a conversation to happen. >> however, while the legislation allows nursing anywhere, it does not create penalties for those which don't follow it. blackmon just hopes breast-feeding doesn't have to be an issue. >> our culture should accept it as something that's part of motherhood and should be, you know embraced as something positive. >> the virginia senate will vote on a similar bill next week which has bipartisan support. the governor is expected to sign it. meanwhile, there are signs like this that are posted now in all alexandria city facilities and received extra training about today. volunteers will also be retrained as well. caroline tucker abc 7 news. >> thanks, caroline. coming up on abc 7 news at 5:00 a veterans cemetery in need of some really serious attention. who is responsible for its

>> well, take a look at this. you see fire coming from brakes on a metro train in dupont circle. twitter user shared this video with us just before firefighters were called to the reports of smoke in a tunnel. metro says the train experienced brake problems starting at the cleveland park metro station. it was taken out of service there at dupont. firefighters were called to both stations as a precaution and no one was hurt. but, of course, that theme is a reminder of last month when one woman died 80 others were hurt when smoke filled that yellow line train. >> that's right. and now, abc 7 has learned that less than half of d.c.'s firefighters have specialized training in just such an emergency. >> new at 5:00 mike conneen

joins us live from l'enfant plaza. the new chief is vowing to fix this. did he say why it wasn't a priority before? >> he couldn't say so today alison and leon. why he didn't explicitly say it many are blaming the previous fire chief. last year out of 1700 d.c. firefighters, only 100 got the specialized training. that puts them in a mock metro rail tunnel. now, compare that to more than 700 from fairfax county more than 400 from montgomery county, now the bowser administration is promising changes. d.c. mayor muriel bowser celebrated the graduation of nine paramedics from firefighters who just completed a 16-week training course. district leaders this week were baffled when union officials revealed sparse training for disasters on metro like last month's yellow line incident. >> i don't think anybody expected that only 100 of our firefighters were trained in one year. and we will set that up. >> not only that but interim fire chief eugene jones says before, the department didn't have a record of who attended

that training. only metro did. but now, he says the department is keeping track with between eight and 15 firefighters rotating through the training daily. >> every firefighter will go through this. some have already gone through it but they're going to go back through it. >> we have to step our efforts up on training. i believe that we should have our own metro calls here at this training academy, facility. you're here today. >> the union told d.c. council members that spotty radio communication has been a problem for years and not just in metro tunnels. >> when your cell phone actually works in those locations, why can't your radios work in that location? it sounds like we have to upgrade the equipment and get into the modern era. >> today, the chief acknowledged department policy instructs firefighters to use their cell phones, if necessary. >> they use whatever method they have to get the job done. >> jones says that policy details nine ways to communicate underground besides radios and cell phones, firefighters are instructed to send runners to

the blue light stations or kiosk phones underground. still, the mayor has ordered weekly testing of radio communications on d.c.'s metro stations. and she says her administration is evaluating d.c.'s radio system for possible changes. reporting live in southwest washington, mike conneen, abc 7 news. >> investigators blame ashes for causing a fire at a home in alexandria. the fire happened around 7:00 last night in the 6,000 block of pike branch road. they had a hard time locating the source of the fire because it was hidden behind a wall. four people were displaced. no one was injured. >> parents of students at a d.c. school received letters alerting them to a teacher's arrest. abc 7 first reported last night that leroy ware was arrested accused of sexually abusing a child. he teaches at miner elementary in northeast d.c. the letter from the principal says ware was suspended as soon as the allegations surfaced. we spoke with parents at the

school today. >> for me to know that he actually had interaction with my child is very disturbing! i have my little girl that comes here and i don't feel comfortable leaving her here now. >> police did not say if the child was a student at that school. this afternoon, a judge allowed ware to go free pending a hearing next month. he is barred from having unsupervised contact with children. >> now, here's a look at our top stories this evening. police are looking for whoever killed an adelphi woman. that happened in the 9200 block of edwards way. the victim was found inside of her home in the racquet club condominiums this morning. she suffered some kind of trauma to her body. >> a fairfax county judge has ordered police to turn over internal affairs documents in the john geer case. officer adam torres shot gerr who was unarmed outside of geer's springfield home in august of 2013. under a court order, police finally released details on this case just last month. >> the terror group isil says that an american woman that has

been held hostage has died in a jordanian air strike. however, the white house says there's no evidence to support that claim. isil identifies the woman as 26-year-old aid worker kayla mueller from arizona. >> update to a problem we first told you about in october. it's an intersection of lee highway and north lynn street known as the intersection of doom. well, it now has a flashing no turn on red sign. that intersection got its dubious name because of numerous accidents over the years. the new light is one of the interim improvements that the county made before a planned $5 million safety project is built in just a few years. all right. let's get a check on our traffic on this friday with bob emler in the wtop traffic center. hi, bob. >> hi alison. we certainly have seen worst fridays. things aren't doing too badly on 270 northbound. it slows down headed near clarksburg. no problems as you head to clarksburg and frederick county
