richard: right now they are saying that the congressman is improving, but he is still in critical condition at this point. he is now under sedation. he is able to understand when somebody speaks to him. but apparently that is the extent of the situation right now. he first arrived here in critical condition, imminent risk of death was the word used. we have video we can show you of the scene from wednesday at simpson park where all of this unfolded. now they are saying the risk of death is substantially lower. now the congressman was hit in the hip, at the park, that was a single high velocity rifle round. it's called a transpelvic wound. the bullet penetrated the left hip and went to the other side, damaging internal organs, bones and blood vessels. the biggest concern was the loss of blood. you may recall he was lying in the field for several minutes because everyone was pinned down by gunfire from

gunman james hodgkinson. the bullet and fragmenteds are still inside. they are describing this as hundreds of bullet fragments inside the congressman but they sound optimistic. >> the congressman's status is critical. we are encouraged by improvement in his condition in the last 36 hours. we have controlled the internal bleeding and his vital signs have stabilize. he will require additional operations to manage abdominal injuries and other bone injuries. richard: the bleeding they said was the biggest issue. you just heard the doctor say they believe it's under control. they say possibly at least a couple more weeks in the hospital. by the way, his family send out greetings to the two officers who pinned down and killed that gunman back on wednesday. reporting live, richard reeve, abc7 news. nancy: thank you for the update. we want to take a minute to say thank you t

our banner over at nats park last night during the congressional baseball game. a lot of people leaving behind well wishes. we will take the sign to capitol hill. jonathan: another story we're following closely. we have new information in the search for the killer or killers who murdered two high school seniors the night before they were to graduate. brad bell has the latest and what clues do investigators have to work with? brad: a couple of big headlines. investigators are telling us they believe that people in the community and perhaps the northwest high school community have information about this crime. police are also telling us this crime was even more brutal than we knew. nearly two weeks have passed since shadi najjar and artem ziberov were murdered the night before their graduation from northwest high school. no arrest has been made. so today, police revealed stunning new information about the crime in hopes that it

first, they recovered a total of 30 shell casings from the montgomery village crime scene. 30 shots fired from at least two different guns. one victim was hit ten times. the other four. for the first time, police are saying this was not a random crime. >> we do believe that the suspects and the victims knew each other. more importantly we believe there are people out there who have not come forward yet and have not given us information that they know about this case. brad: the police want those people to call in. they say the police are the only ones that can protect those with information from killers as brutal as these. now, when we come back at 5:00, we are going to tell you a little bit more about one of the possibilities as to

the link may be between the victim and the killers. you are also going to hear some emotional words from one of the victim's fathers. at montgomery county police headquarters, brad bell, abc7 news. michelle: developing now, another possible recusal in the investigation in the russian possible interference in the last u.s. election. today they are reporting that rod rosenstein told the associate attorney general privately he may need to recuse himself from that investigation. but it's unclear right now why he would say that. that revelation came just a few hours after president trump somewhat confirmed he is the subject of an investigation in the firing of former f.b.i. director james comey. with this tweet. he tweeted this morning --" "i am being investigated for firing the f.b.i. director by the man who told me to fire the f.b.i. director. witch hunt." he is referring there to rosenstein who wrote a memo

go. rosenstein also helped select robert mueller as the special counsel investigating the claims. so far mueller hired 13 lawyers for the investigation and is expected to hire more. jonathan: today the president took another step in undoing his predecessor's legacy. if you were thinking of maybe heading to cuba for vacation, think again. melissa dipane now with the live desk to look at how he is rolling back the relations with cuba to make travel difficult. >> a huge uptick in cuba since regulations were loosened by the obama administration. american tourists could file for visas but today trump is limiting the nonacademic educational trip to group travel. individual travel will not be allowed. trump says t

americans and have cuban people in mind. president trump: effective immediately i am canceling the last administration's completely one-sided deal with cuba. melissa: the changes are not immediate. the treasury and the commerce department will have 90 days to draft a policy. at the live desk, melissa dipane, abc7 news. nancy: thank you. marriott letting you change how you change your travel plans. they are doing away with the 24-hour consolation policy. instead now you need to give the hotel at least 48 hours notice if you plan to cancel a reservation. i applies to hotels in the united states, canada, latin america and the caribbean. michelle: coming up at 4:00 -- angry protesters break out in the wake of the deadly fire in london. find out what the people want. >> although we are pleased with the verdict in reality, there are no winners here today. >> coming

saudi arabia, muslim country, were you under the impression perception of america was changing around the world and if so, how? >> it was the first time you had 54 muslim and arab leaders come together. and highlight the problem. and agree to work collectively toward a solution. it was a remarkable experience. it was an amazing thing to see. i'm incredibly proud of my father for having been able to accomplish that. michelle: you can see more of sharyl attkisson's interview with ivanka truck at 10:00 -- ivanka trump at 10:00 a.m. on sunday on "full measure." jonathan: turn back to the weather. it could get bumpy. we have issues of flash flooding. michelle: heavy rain. brian: we will jump into that but the trend for the next couple of days is a hotter trend. we talked about today being below average in the low 80's but in the next few days the te

up. heading to sunday, that is the warmest day out of the next few. if the 92-degree reading may not sound that hot but you when factor in the humidity it's intense. talk about the flooding concerns from fauquier county. friends to virginia you have a watch up. right now, active warnings. the one for paige county, luray, not active anymore. through madison county, this is the periphery to rockingham and shenandoah. they are under the gun now. the heavy rain is staying south. but the models indicate as we continue to go in the evening the heavy rain should slowly start to drift to the east. basically it's been hanging out along an old stationary front hanging out to the west of us along the 81 corridor. as long as it is shifts eastward as it appears some of the rain should move in our neck of the woods. if this continues to hold true later tonight, probably after dark. we will see the showers moving in

some could be heavy. the heavy downpours are some of the biggest concerns because we have so much moisture. the atmosphere is juiced up. when we see the rains occur. there is a lot of rain to tap into. and the system is not moving that fast so they will sit over the same area and continue to rain down on them. that's why we have flooding concerns. clouds tomorrow waking up on saturday. through the afternoon we are looking at the improving conditions for us by tomorrow afternoon. mid-day or so. we should get the sunshine back. 88 for the day on saturday for the start of the weekend. by sunday, father's day. 92. each and every afternoon there could be a storm or two. but this is not a widespread event. i'm not saying to cancel any plans. you can still have your plans. you may have to duck inside briefly. sunday, the hotter of the two days the rain chances on sunday are slightly less than what we see on saturday. less of a chance. head out, take in the pool. head to the ocean. let dad relax. it's his weekend. a look at the forecast. more coming up in a bit. jonathan: keywords. let dad relax.
