two counts of attempted first- degree murder. accepting the state's recommendation means the two sides did not have to read lamont davis' record into open court. but abc 2 news has learned the 17-year-old already had a lengthy criminal history. sources tell us davis was involved in a carjacking, an assault, and robbery, and that the department of juvenile services was hon -- monitoring him. they had him under realtime surveillance, but he eventually cut it off. the department of juvenile services says it acted immediately and issued a juvenile warrant for davis, but was not able to find him before the shooting last week. meanwhile, the family of 5-year- old victim raven wyatt would rather her condition no longer be released. in baltimore, brian kuebler, abc 2 news. >> as davis sits in jail, a prayer vigil is about to begin for the young victim. abc 2 news christian schaffer joins us live from south pulaski street where she was

on. but i was like are you sure that's what you want to do? i didn't know if he was married or anything. so she was like no, he loves me. he likes me. i'm so happy about him. >> abdi says his aunt believed mcnair was divorcing his wife. nashville police say they're not ready to call kazemi's death a suicide. rob carlin will have more reaction to the death of steve mcnair later on in sports. land is also more information about steve mcnair on our website, abc2news.com. we'll continue to update that as developments come in. former washington, d.c. mayor marion barry is confident apparently that stalking charges against him will be dropped. barry was arrested and charged this past weekend. today an attorney said barry did nothing wrong, and the woman is a former girlfriend. >> we believe that the chargele is baseless. we believe that the charge stems from a personal relationship that has gone

>> reporter: since 1946, a whole lot of nastiness has been buried underground in the 14 acres that make up fort detrick's area b. primarily heavy solvents with barrels of military chemical waste were also found in this one-time test area. the state says the best way to deal with this is to literally cover it up. all this dirt and fill will be put on top of a waterproof membrane designed to keep runoff from leeching into well water. she says it's a start. >> there lose been a lot of damage that has bun done. let's make sure we have the right remedial plan in place. but i do think now that it's on the national priority list, we'll have the right monitoring and the right agency making the types of decisions. >> reporter: wells like these dot the entire site as they continue to monitor what is underground, and whether or not how it's spreading, or if it is spreading. and many people that live nearby that were on well water are now on municipal water to make sure that no harm comes to them. but nobody can rule out at this

point is contamination of groundwater. that means we're looking at frederick county, frederick city's water supply being in jeopardy. that's what we're talking about. that's what groundwater is. >> reporter: but attorney says the remediation doesn't go far enough. he says the army and the state both knew in the 1970s that solvents and even bacteria were leaking into groundwater. kissin says there is a need to relook at this. >> they can't begin to afford to deal with a situation in which there are live germs. the live germs were not discovered until 2002. mind you, the problem at area b is first taken notice of back in the '70s. they don't do any remediation at all until 2001. >> reporter: he says this is part of a larger problem, and says the military has an obligation to protect americans in their own backyards. at fort detrick, roosevelt leftwich, abc 2 news. now the forecast certified baltimore's most accurate, here

comes along. things are going to be pretty nice. right now nothing showing up on maryland's most powerful radar. nice clear scan out there. and it's going throw main that way for the next couple days. the next chance for shower activity doesn't look until the end of the week and the weekend. columbia at 86. 85 at capital heights. westminster 83. 82 in bel air. elkton also 82. galena 83. stevenville 88 degrees. milford, delaware 80. and easton right thought at 82. forecast for tonight, a few little light clouds. as the sun goes down, those clouds dissipate. a very nice evening overnight. and during the day tomorrow, a few showers up here through the philadelphia area could hit portions of northern cecil and harford county. but they would be very few and far between. for the most part in baltimore we will be precipitation-free until the next system slides up the eastern seaboard by the end of the week. your forecast for tonight, mostly clear, not as cool. overnight low 66 degrees. during the day tomorrow, a beautiful day, mostly sunny with a high of 87 degrees.

>> it makes no sense that something like this would happen to such a great person. he did so much in the community and for the kids, a great guy. he was a great lead attorney field, man. he is the kind of guy that you would love being around every single day. like i couldn't -- i just couldn't envision anything bad coming from this guy. >> mcnair of course only spent two years here in baltimore, but he was the face of the titans organization, and led them to within a yard of a super bowl title. his long-time coach and runningback are choosing to remember the warrior on the field. >> i ask you to honor what he did on the field and in the community. and what he was is a tremendous teammate. that is his legacy. and i'm proud to have been a part of that. >> you know, we all make mistakes. we all wish we can go back on. but i'm not here to dwell on that.

i'm here to celebrate the life of a dear friend and teammate. >> well, the celebrity gossip website tmz released these photos last night, mcnair and kazemi obviously vacationing together. her sister and nephew says she expected mcnair to leave his wife and hoped for a ring. >> the orioles start a three will have game series in seattle without chris ray. he was put on the dl with tendinitis in his right biceps. cam was recalled. lacrosse season never really ends here in baltimore. tony is running a summer camp for kids ages 6 to 17. towson players are helping coach. he is hoping the kids learn something new every day. >> ultimately, they're doing something and maybe somebody on their team is not doing. they're improving their skills, and hopefully they're going to be a little better in whatever league or level they play at
