information from the gunman's wife. we have more on the day's developments. reporter: at the center of the investigation, did omar mateen's wife noor salman know he was planning mass murder? law enforcement officials say she allegedly went to buy ammo with mateen, visited pulse nightclub with him once and she may have tried to talk him out of committing an act of violence. now the f.b.i. is asking for help. >> regardless of how small the information may be, i still want to hear about it. reporter: details emerging including a threatening facebook message mateen posted the same morning of the attacks. "taste the vengeance" he wrote. and signs that mateen possible pli struggled with an inner conflict. professing to hate homosexuals but a former classmate with this. >> if you were gay, you would be my type of guy. reporter: mateen's victims speaking out about coming face to face with the killer. >> he looked deranged. he looked like something was mentally wrong with him. reporter: she spent hours

immediately go to court, block the sale and arrest the terrorist." the n.r.a. called for due process in a potential investigation. the attack in orlando, and after similar attacks we have seen spikes in gun purchases. brad bell joins us live with this side of the story. brad? brad: the folks here have been kind enough to allow us in the store. it happens every time something like this happens in the country. there is an uptick in the sale of guns. in particular this sort of gun. the so-called modern sports rifle or a.r. type weapon. sales picked up yesterday. at maryland small arms in upper marlboro it hasn't started yet but the salesman expects that the sales will pick up. >> the politicians start to beat the drums about gun control, i'm sure we will see increase in the sales, especially in the a.r. type

rifles. >> by that he means what many call the modern sporting rifles. mostly black in color with military looking features. the sort of gun used by the orlando shooter. the gun called an assault weapon that some want banned. >> a sad reality. brad: jeremiah owns the shop "the gun dude" says he sold 20 a.r.-15 guns yesterday and he expects demand will increase in the days ahead. we will be back at 6:00 with much more on the gun sales. what is motivating them and the hard numbers from the f.b.i. there have been background checks for

"regal row" that consists of a movie theater flanked by half a dozen or so restaurants. this week some of the owners spoke at a rockville city council meeting arguing that the limited parking, aggressive parking enforcement and $40 tickets for an expired meter have eaten away at the res specktive bottom lines -- respecktive bottom lines. after subtracting expenses like respect, utilities he is losing money every month. it has caused him to contemplate shutting down. the ben & jerry franchise says if nothing changes there will be a lot of boarded up store front. as for guiseppe's, the co-owners contend barely a day goes by without a customer lamenting about the cost and the inconvenience of parking. >> they told me, "we still love your place but we got outside and we paid for the

underneath the windshield," a $40 ticket. the meal went from $45 to $85. they weren't happy. we didn't see them after that. kevin: all right. the folks here at guiseppe's believe the city of rockville is taking the concerns seriously. new at 5:00, i will tell you what ideas to fix the problem are being tossed around. live in rockville, kevin lewis, abc7 news. michelle: okay. thank you. let's get a check on the traffic situation at this hour. eric smith is here with details. the doesn't look good, eric. eric: it's a tough ride out there. all over the place. this is 395 north near the pentagon. a tough ride across the 14th street bridge in the city. onto the freeway. so that is all going to be connected. take a look at the southeast/southwest freeway. this is the westbound side. this is just jam packed either way you go. no accidents to it. it's all just volume heading this way. also looking at

virginia. we do still have tough delays northbound into springfield out of route 1. southbound traffic is heavy. looking at the overall map. that is going to be a tough ride. around the beltway as well. we have some solid delays if we can take a look at the camera north of dulles toll road. tysons to the 270 spur. you can see more of that here heading to the legion bridge. both ways here for the beltway. jampacked. accident on the outer loop and typical volume for the inner loop. that is a very tough ride for you. same story up to the river road for the beltway. this is going to be a really tough ride for both directions on 495. that is all from the traffic center for now. back to michelle. michelle: thank you. take a look now at this wild weather stirred up in south dakota. this is video of one of two tornadoes to form in that state. good news, though, no report of damage or injuries. scott: scary.

steve: we have been lucky around here. we count our blessings and enjoy what we have now. we have changes on the way, especially tomorrow evening and friday morning. then things will improve dramatically. let's talk about going swimming. how does that sound? they're doing it this evening. no problems at all. we look outside. looking at really not a lot. 80 degrees. passing clouds here and there. not amounting to much as we move through the early evening hours. 79 degrees in manassas. 84 in leesburg. we are looking at the satellite and the radar now. it's just a few showers, just south of us around fredericksburg. those are fizzling out. anything that we see in the next hour or so shouldn't apt to a lot. more on the way in terms of the heavier rain that will arrive late tomorrow evening through the overnight hours into early friday morning. that will be the best chance to see localized flooding across the mid-atlantic. in d.c., this is where the action is located now. part of a warm front draped across west virgin

western north carolina. for the overnight hours around 65 to 70 degrees. mostly cloudy skies. we may hear rumble of thunder but not expecting a lot around here. waking up tomorrow morning is warm, muggy. light jacket. maybe early on. not going to need it long. the future cast hour by hour. few showers will dot the radar. it's not expecting a lot. waking up tomorrow morning and mostly cloudy skies. numerous showers dot radar. we look for rain across the area before the system moves out of here. tomorrow, the temperatures around 80 degrees. showers and storms later in the day and overnight. i'll take you to look at the next seven days. 75 on friday.

scott: the press conference started in orlando. head down there now. the missing boy, the boy dragged in by the alligator. let's listen. >> we are here this afternoon to give you an update on where we are with this recovery effort. we will share with you that we just met with the family. we spent some time with them. and deliver this update. at about 1:45 today, members of the orange county sheriff office dive team

of the deceased, the 2-year-old. identify him in a few moments. at 3:30 today we recovered the remains of the 2-year-old from the water. that body has now been turned over to the orange county medical examiner's office for an autopsy. the family i will identify. the parents are matt and melissa graves. from elk horn, nebraska. the 2-year-old is lane graves. i will share with you that the child was found, his body was completely intact.

so at this time we will go through the formality of making a formal identification. but there is no reason for us to believe that the body that was recovered is not that of lane graves. the effort to continue with the wildlife management here at disney will go forward. i will turn it over at this time to the executive director who will share with you more details about their efforts. >> thank you sheriff demings. first again we want to say that the thoughts and the prayers are with this family. we are

at the outcome. i want to thank sheriff demings and the orange county sheriff office throughout the entire tragedy. that i have been great to work with. they are a benefit to the community. i would like to thank disney. they have been totally cooperative as we worked through this in how we handled the tragedy. although we have some sort over close -- of closure, the investigation is still ongoing. we are going to continue to evaluate the evidence we have. and we are going to try to continue searching. we will make certain we have the alligator involved and that we remove it. we remove it from the lake. so we are going to verify we have captured that alligator through forensic work or we are going to continue to look for an alligator until we find the right one. we will work with disney as they continue to address alligators park.

we do deliver a message to you. the message is they do appreciate all the prayers that have gone forward to allow those of us working on the professional side to do our jobs. to recover their son. so they can move forward at this time with proper burial. on behalf of the family i deliver the message to you. it was a tough message to deliver to them to let them know at this point their child is dead. at this time we will entertain a few questions. reporter: how important is it to find the alligator? do you fear it could do it again? sheriff demings: again, there were several alliga

located. i will let the f.w.c. director speak to you about the process they use to confirm one of the alligators located is the right one or not. >> just really quickly. we are going to look at the five alligators we have taken and we are going to compare things like bite marks and such as that. we don't know what we have yet. it is still early in that part of the investigation. there is a good chance we already have the alligator. we focused the efforts in that proximity and that area where the incident occurred. there is a good chance. but we are going to go through the process and the forensics to make certain. if we can't get a certain match we will go out and look for alligators to make sure we have done everything we can and all the due diligence to make sure we have taken the alligator out. it's important to do that. reporter: where did you find the alligator? sheriff demings: i believe the question is where did we find

he was within the immediate area where he was last seen. it took some time to go through and make certain. the water is murky. but the divers were able to locate the body. we used sonar equipment and means to go in and recover remains. reporter: was the body found intact? reporter: [inaudible question] sheriff demings: the autopsy has to confirm that. there is likely no question in my mind that the child was drowned by the alligator. reporter: should there be a sign to warn people about the alligators? sheriff demings: there is signage that says no swimming. disney will look at all of their protocols and the signage going forward. reporter: do you recommend they add the signs to warn

sheriff demings: this is a partnership. our ultimate concern is about the safety of the guests at disney as well as the public. as the investigation continues we will continue our death investigation with the orange county sheriff office. i'm certain that there will be opportunities opportunities in the future to look at what has occurred to see if it can be prevented in the future. [inaudible question] we will get to the spanish media in a moment. reporter: what process did they go through? sheriff demings: the director explained that process to you about what they will do to ensure they have the right gator. reporter: could you go into more detail about what the family was doing along the shore? in the water? playpen near the water? what were they doing? sheriff demings: the family was vacationing. a regular pl

they were sitting outside the area. beach like area. they were enjoying the evening. they have a 4-year-old child. there was a playpen nearby. the 2-year-old was just along the edge of the bank playing in the water when this occurred. >> do you believe that the signage is inefficient, sheriff? reporter: did you deliver the message yourself to the family? what was their reaction? sheriff demings: i delivered the message with a previous, previous, -- message along with a priest, a catholic priest. of course the family was distraught but also i believe somewhat relieved that we were able to find their son with the body intact, one. and two, he was located so they can come to grips with what has happened. reporter: you have seen the

you have been listening to the orange county there have? orlando confirm the devastating news of the toddler found. his body recovered from the lagoon there at the disney resort. he walked us through the process of what happens next. they have five alligators apparently that they are examining to determine which one is responsible for the attack. hearing the law enforcement officials describe this, you can tell they were stunned and shaken to have to deliver the news. scott: tragedy in orlando again. heart ranching. alison: awful. he identified the little boy. the parents matt and melissa graves from elk horn, nebraska. the little boy 2 years old. lane. we follow the devastating story. we'll bring you any other
