passed by democrats five years ago expires. that happens on july 1st. lawmakers from both parties say they want to keep the lower rate. they differ, however, on how to pay for it. the republican bill takes money from programs established by the health care reform law. democrats say they'd rather pay for the bill by ending subsidies for oil companies. the senate now gets that bill. the sun was out for your friday, but rain could dampen your weekend plans, folks. doug's here with your forecast. doug? >> yeah, you know, i think we're going to have a half and half weekend out of this. sunday looking like the better day. but this friday looking very, very nice out there. you walk outside right now, you see plenty of sunshine. temperatures a little bit below average. once again, a high temperature right now of 64 degrees. our average high is 70. so a little bit below average. and the winds gusting to near 30 miles an hour. those winds have been gusting all day long out of the north-northwest. with that we've stayed cool, especially in our northwestern zones. hagerstown 56. 59 in frederick.

fl

well, this sunday will be the 20th anniversary of the l.a. riots. remember los angeles just caught

fire and racial tensions across the nation were inflamed after some white police officers out in los angeles were acquitted even though they were caught on videotape beating a black motorist. days of fires and looting. it caused more than a billion dollars in damage and more than 50 people died in that. and for rodney king the riots of 20 years ago are still fresh. he was just 27 years old at the time. four police officers who beat him were acquitted, sparking those days of violent protest. king has a new book out about what it has been like since 1992. he sat down with reporter colleen williams. >> 3391 goes through my head every time i get pulled over by a cop. >> can we all get along? >> reporter: march 3rd, 1991. rodney king became the face of racial tensions. up until now king has been reluctant to talk publicly about that night. but after 20 years he feels the need to document what happened

in his new book "the riot within." >> bam, kicked me in the temple. and broke my jaw and facial area on the right side. and he asked me, how you feel in and then here comes koons. didn't know him by the name then. sergeant koons comes in with the taser, lights me up. and i'm like, whoa, numb, feels like getting whipped with an tension cord. just the current going through my body. and then all i heard was we're going to kill you [ bleep ]. >> reporter: police believed at the time that king was on pcp and that gave him superhuman strength to withstand the blows. rodney king tells a different story. >> it was malt beer. but no pcp. had never done any pcp. i couldn't put had i hands behind my back because you're shocking me. the taser's going through me. and this guy wouldn't stop tasing me. but then they started beating me. honestly, i just wanted them to finish me off because the pain was so bad. >> reporter: king spent three

days at the men's central jail, and despite the high-speed chase and the alcohol test two times the legal limit, he was never charged. >> the police lady standing over me. she said don't worry about it, they seen everything, they got it on tape. and i'm holding on to my little bloody clothes, trying to -- because that's the only evidence i thought i had. i still suffer from like some of the thoughts, nightmares and stuff to this day. >> reporter: four lapd officers were charged in connection with that beating. 13 months later they were acquitted in simi valley. >> what would you say to the officers now, 20 years later? >> i don't know. i had to forgive them because i mean, i've been forgiven many times, you know, in my lifetime. you know, i'm not god. and if god can forgive us for some of our mistakes, there's no reason -- i'm just a man down here on this earth. so it's no reason why i shouldn't be able to forgive somebody else so i can move on.

>> rodney king recently weighed in on the trayvon martin case. he told "the new york daily news" that people should wait for the justice system and not retaliate with violence of their own. tomorrow marks ten years since an f-4 tornado struck the town of la plata, maryland. the tornado destroyed homes, businesses, schools on april 28th of '02. tonight one of those schools, the archbishop neal catholic school-l come together to mark ten years since that tornado. the school was rebuilt in 2004. a massive thanksgiving will be held tomorrow at the sacred heart church in la plata at 5:00 in the evening. also tonight, new dash cam video from a police officer in norman, oklahoma. gives you some idea of what it might be like to be caught in a tornado. the officer was on his way back to the police station when the tornado struck april 13th. the patrol car was pounded by driving rain and strong winds. visibility was almost down to zero. no one was hurt in the tornado.

but several buildings were destroyed. quite a perspective. >> yeah. >> doug joins us now, and he is taking a pollen reading off of our faces tonight. we're feeling it. >> if you could both just turn to me. not good. not good. >> swollen eyes. >> it's bad. and we've talked about this before. it's really bad when the wind is blowing. that's exactly what we've seen out there during the day today. but both of you guys, you can tell what's going on out there. a lot of pollen sufferers. you look fantastic. that's not what i meant. >> do i look as bad az think i do? >> you look fantastic. back to you, wendy and kim. back to you. as far as the weather is concerned out there, it is a beautiful day just like -- sunshine, we've got plenty of that. 64 degrees the temperature out there right now.

but yes, the winds are really kicking up that poenl, winds gusting to 28 miles per hour here. and around the rest of the region, 20 in martinsburg, 16 miles per nour fredricksburg, but near 30 over there toward andrews air force base and over there toward baltimore, too. going to be a fairly breezy night tonight. and if you're going out, you're going to want to take the jackets because once the sun starts to go down temperatures will fall off. already in the upper 50s, that's as high as you've gotten in leesburg and frederick down toward hagerstown. 69 in fredricksburg, 64 in la plata. can storm 4 raid nor rain to talk about. so this evening will be completely dry. if you're going out on this friday night, it's looking very nice. as far as the day goes tomorrow, though, we can't really say that. we've got another storm system that's going to be making its way our way. the main storm is way up toward the northwest. but we're going to see a little bet of energy here move across the frontal boundary. that frontal boundary will be just in place for us to ride right along that area of low pressure, ride right along that front and give us the rain. cool and breezy conditions this evening.

we'll see the cool conditions stick around tomorrow, but here comes that front. it will be a warm front, and with that that means lighter rain. it's not going to be a washout tomorrow. this is about 5:00, and you can see the rain across the area. i think most of the day should be dry, but around 5:00, 6:00, that's when i think the rain will move in. the heaviest rain will actually be late tomorrow evening into the early overnight hours. and then on sunday we break out into the sunshine again. and sunday is looking like a very nice day. as far as your temperatures go this evening, this is what you can expect. actually, tomorrow morning increasing clouds, a chilly start. this evening's looking great, by the way, but a chilly start tomorrow morning. 32 in some of the colder suburbs to about 43 in the city. frost and freeze advisories including a freeze warning to the west. that doesn't include the panhandle of west virginia, frederick, maryland and frederick, virginia. frost advisories for the areas in the purple. as far as tomorrow goes, well, 57 to 62. cloudy and cool with rain developing by tomorrow afternoon. most of it should be on the light side, and we break out of the rain just in time for the day on sunday. sunday a really nice day.

and warming up, by the way, on tuesday with a high of 75. chance for some showers. >> thank you, doug. >> pollen's a lot better tomorrow. >> you'll look much better tomorrow. >> can't get much worse than this. a northern virginia activist on trial for allegedly molesting young girls at his daughter's slumber party. this afternoon his wife took the stand. it's like a scene out of a movie, but the health scare aboard this delta flight was all too real. the mysterious condition that prompted a quarantine. and dan hellie has all the big hits of the past week as well as the ones that weren't so big in case you missed it. also stick around tonight for news 4 at 6:00. there are concerns this evening about what has turned the water red near the capital crescent trail. we did some digging to find out if there

it's friday. as always, we have lots to show you. in case you missed it, here you go. in case you missed it, there was a dog day afternoon at nationals park last weekend.

but that didn't compare to new york, where the game truly went to the dogs. the mets actually had a dog throw out the first pitch. well, he didn't quite throw it out, but he did get it to catcher josh tollee, who took it out of miz mouth. wonder if other dogs were barking their approval in the stands. what do college baseball players do in a rain delay? turns out they do plenty. ole miss and southern miss took it to a whole new level with their rain delay performances. it included a roller coaster ride by the southern miss team. then it was bowling by ole miss. looks like it could be a strike. but will the last pin go down? finally, it does. and then they finished it off with a little dancing. the game ended up being canceled until may 1st. when grayvis vasquez was at maryland, he was known to lose his cool at times. a lot of times. but what happens for him against the new orleans hornets for the clippers was ridiculous. vasquez gets picked by reggie

evans and gives him a quick forearm to get out of the way. then comes the academy award nominee for best flop. and the winner, reggie evans. what was originally called a flagrant foul on vasquez turned into a regular old personal foul. bad acting job there for sure. there was no act in the lakers-thunder game. metta world peace with a vicious elbow to the head of oklahoma city's james harden. world peace suspended for seven games as harden recovered from concussion-like symptoms. how does a guy who changed his name to world peace do something so violent? speaking of classless, how about the phoenix coyotes' raffi torres with the shoulder to the head on chicago's marian hossa? torres launched himself into hossa, who had to be carried off in a stretcher. the nhl threw the book at torres, suspending him 25 games for the hit.

and finally, thank goodness for unmanned camera. at the spring races in bristol, tennessee lindsay mustin loses control of her '68 camaro and slides across the track spinning up and over the wall taking out the camera on the way. so until the very last second, in case you missed it, you have now seen it all. >> thank goodness for unmanned cameras. man. we're going to have a lot more coming up at 6:00. not so much in case you missed it but real sports. the good stuff. it's been a great week. >> thanks, dan. >> coming up on news 4 at 5:00, a disturbing case of animal abuse. hear the plea from owners as police search for the person who attacked some therapy horses. he looks like a construction worker, but investigators say his actions were criminal. dmv dilemma. a virginia man forced to trade [ female announcer ] with xfinity,

hall with both bedroom doors open when her husband went in and returned in about 15 minutes. the girl told a falls church detective the fondling lasted 45 minutes. the next night, during a birthday slumber party, two girls say michael gardner came down several times in the early morning hours and molested them. but robin gardner says her husband had been sick and turned in early that night. gardner says she doesn't remember her husband stirring until the next morning. she also testified the girls got up, had breakfast, and played. as defense attorney peter green spun, from your observation was there any indication the girls were upset or emotional? "no," replied gardner. but in cross-examination prosecutor alex omato suggested robin gardner had tried to protect her husband from the beginning and had failed to cooperate with police. she asked about the night a falls church sergeant arrived at the gardner home to inform them of the charges. asked the prosecutor, "isn't it true that as you were speaking to the sergeant your husband emerged and told you to stop

speaking?" "i don't recall," answered gardner. now, the defense continues its case on monday, when it's expected to call as its first witness the gardners' own 10-year-old daughter. reporting live from arlington, i'm julie carey, news 4. a virginia man tonight says he's upset after the department of motor vehicles recalled his personalized license plates, calling them offensive. after the september 11th attacks, rick sanders ordered plates that read f osama. he says he was trying to show his patriotism. sanders lives in the norfolk area. he said he's had the plates on his truck for seven years now but when he went to renew them the dmv said the message is offensive and the plates should never have been issued in the first place. they gave him new plates with randomly assigned numbers and letters that ironically he finds offensive. >> 666 the -- kind of like the devil. and then 8 uup. so the devil ate you up.

clay oven cooked lamb chopz presented with a glossy warm salad of onions, cilantro, and peppers. vegetarians will feel like first-class citizens with more than a dozen main courses to ponder. someone at the table should order the mash of smoked egg plants, tomatoes, ginger, and onions, and with luck someone will share. there's also strips of battered poultry that get their firepower from curry leaves, fresh green chilies and hot vinegar. the daily lunch buffet is a good value given the dishes. authorize than a dozen on weekdays and nearly 20 on saturday and sunday. from the chicken smoky from its time in the tandoor and putting chunky with grated carrots the choices all show care. now, not every dish is worth licking your plate clean. a starter of garlic shrimp tastes oddly sweet and an entree of lamb cubes burr idea in a one-note almond sauce grows tiresome a few bites in. but more of my time at this restaurant where water is poured from handsome copper pitchers and the design incorporates the colors of an indian spice

cabinet, is spent thinking about how much attention it devotes to the final points. i'm giving 2 1/2 stars, a good to excellent rating, to jewel of india in silver spring. >> oh, mouth-watering there. hey, sold us. you can read tom's reviews this weekend in the "washington post" magazine. and for video versions of tom's top picks just go to nbcwashington.com. trouble on the tarmac. coming up next, a plane was quarantined on the runway for hours after a passenger came down with a mysterious rash. i'm liz crenshaw. where can you check to see if you have unclaimed funds? that's the question. the answer's coming up on "ask liz" on news 4 at 5:00. is there an unclaimed allowance from your parents you never got? what's the interest on that? 80 in atlanta. to the north 51 in pittsburgh. which air mass
