the aftermath is devastating as we learn more about the fire that destroyed this house in dupont circle. she talked to a neighbor who talked about the pan pick set in when the flames poured out. >> reporter: what we know is that firefighters were on the scene for hours trying to battle this blaze and understand how it started. just take a look at the house itself. it certainly speaks for itself. the fire just ripped through. you can even see in certain parts. it goes all the way to the end of the house. we spoke with a man who lives in
4:15 pm

4:17 pm
shows will probably pick up and move out of maryland they would save a ton of money if they do that. you take a look. california's governor signed legislation that put $330 million aside to lure production companies back to that state. more than $27 million of that is set aside for shows that relocate from other states. that would include veep, which is expected to get about $6.5 million to tape its fifth scene there. that is less than the $7.5 million that maryland paid for the fourth season. over time california has much more money to continue to offer that type of incentive. veep is competing with house of cards here. together they eat up more than 98% of maryland's film incentives. there are concerns that maryland will keep reducing the tax credits. there was a fight just last year in annapolis to keep the incentive program at the expanded program. aaron gilchrist.
4:18 pm
news4. the gloomy weather continues. >> it's misty out there today. chief meteorologist doug kammerer is in the storm center. when is the sun coming back? >> as annie said, the sun will come out tomorrow. i don't think so. i think it will be during the day on friday. i think that will be the case. a day very similar to what we have today. 62 degrees. that's the current temperature across our region. that's the high today. 60 in hung town. 58 in culpepper. it is just a cool dreary mess of a day. storm team 4 radar showing some shower activity. mostly toward the south. around the fredericksburg area. that's moving to the north and west toward warranton. we'll see a few more of those showers. the rest us seeing some areas of drizzle. you can see what's happening on the wider view. this area moving southeast to northwest. we'll see some of those showers through culpepper county. a lot of these showers as they try to move toward d.c. may fall apart. we'll continue to see a little shower activity as we move

4:20 pm
>> this is from years of theory and research that is coming into practice. the term is bench to bed side. immuno therapy is where the body uses its own immune system to go to work and clear out the disease. it is a very targeted treatment. compared to chemotherapy, chemotherapy is like giving a poison to the body and it kills just all of the cells indiscriminately. so in this new report they gave cancer patients a mono clonal antibody which was made to guide the immune system to find the cancer cells. cancer cells have this tricky way of hiding from your immune system and the antibodies can help identify the cells so your body can clear them out. the reports were quite good. 60% of medical noma patients saw
4:21 pm
smaller tumors and 40% of lung cancer patients had a reduction in death rates. so these drugs are already being used in alzheimer's asthma psoriasis and other thing like cardiac disease and infectious disease. all in all, a very exciting time. both for patients and doctors. >> all right. and some of these drugs are already being used and some are in the final stages of fda approval. there's a lot more to be learned on that. we're working a developing story out of boston. the fbi is releasing some new information on what it calls a credible terror threat.

4:34 pm
it is a growing concern as terror organizations expand their reach on social media. while the fbi expands the security and surveillance operations. >> reporter: and officials tell nbc news, they are concerned that they may have been recruited and radicalized by isis inspired social media. i'm jay gray. news4. >> we've got more on that developing story the river rescue underway near great falls in the potomac. that's right. two people were jumping off the rocks near great falls and got swept away. >> from montgomery fire and rescue is joining us with more on this story. are you there? >> yes, i am. >> tell us what happened. we heard these guys were kayaking and then we were told, they were cliff jumping. >> the latest version is they were swimmers. so we did have some pretty changing stories. the boaters we were talking about initially were people
4:35 pm
trying to rescue the one man who got caught up in the current. what we believe now is that two young men in their 20s were swimming in the area of sandy landing on the virginia shoreline south of great falls. one of the swimmers made it across the shore. the other got caught up in the middle in the current. was last seen floating down stream. most of us know or we know, and should be aware that the currents are very strong. very deceiving. swimming is prohibited in these areas. nonetheless, a young man was last seen floating down the middle of the river. in the area of sandy landing. a pretty extensive search. initially the boaters that we thought we were coming out to rescue were people trying to assist this young man in trouble. however, the efforts were to no avail. we have the resources of the u.s. park police helicopter the fairfax fire and rescue, the
4:36 pm
boats, we're in the water and they were able to get here pretty quickly. but so far, the search has turned up nothing. we've searched the water, searches the shoreline, searches the islands. we've used thermal imaging cameras and so forth to search the shores. at this point, a pretty extensive search. we've been out here since about 2:15 or 2:20. and we will probably conclude things here shortly. if we don't turn up anything we will conduct, continue to search tomorrow morning at $sunrise. it is our hope he made to it shoreline. got in his car and went home. so of course we're checking that out. we hope he is safe and sound somewhere. so far we haven't turned up anything. >> hoping with you. thanks a lot. this is a different story. just a miracle that he survived. a car runs over a little boy on

4:41 pm
still struggling. troy johnson is here with today's talk around town. >> the big number $1.3 trill. a key economic driver, we're going to pour that money into the economy and we're talking about that number may exceed by 2017. so big numbers generated by african-americans. and some numbers on the screen as well. the consumer is 43 million consumers who ten to be more aggressive. they know exactly what they want when they go to the store. they shop more frequently and they read more financial magazines. we're talking about a very savvy group. 73% of african-americans own smartphones compared to 62% of the total u.s. population. so this is a group that retailers need to understand, a very relevant group that spends a lot of money. that spending doesn't seem to square with the fact that
4:42 pm
they're struggling. >> there are some kitchen table items. people lost their equity and wealth they built over the last years in the crisis. and they aren't able to rebuild because a lot of the salaries are stagnant these days. and the cost of the goods and services these days continue to go up. it is creating a situation where it is hard to get out of the financial troubles that folks have at home. >> this is an interesting program. coming to the area that hopes to address those issues. >> we've got a program we learned about. june 5 and 6. churches coming together as a key cornerstone to help people learn more about their financial situation. the war on terror on the worldwide web. why isis is able to recruit so well on social media. and what u.s. homeland security is doing.

4:48 pm
fight. there are millions of hits. they say they warn that isis is hunting for the hearts and minds of its kids. the experts up here testified that they cannot predict who will pivot among isis supporters here if america from casual support to what they call flash bang. >> i know they assess isis capabilities abroad. does homeland security have any idea how many followers are in the u.s. right now? >> they certainly don't know. they guesstimate maybe 1,000. in testimony on the hill you heard 100 you heard a thousand. they clearly don't know and they don't care chris, if somebody is just mildly interested. what they want to know is how you pick out of that large group the very few who are going to
