now as we tell you that officer cesar goodson is being charged with second-degree murder and manslaughter in the death of freddie gray. goodson is the driver of the police van in which gray suffered a broken neck and died in april. officer porter has been subpoenaed as a prosecution witness to testify that he told the van driver that freddie gray needed medical attention and couldn't breathe. porter was put on the witness stand and he refused to answer questions from prosecutors invoking his fifth amendment right against self-incrimination. the prosecution asked to grant porter immunity and compelled him to testify at the trial. >> immunity provides a witness with protection against anything that the witness says during his or her testimony.

so usually the prosecution cannot use officer porter's testimony against him at some subsequent trial. it's important to keep in mind that officer porter's retrial is scheduled for june 13th. coming up on news 4 at 5:00, we'll tell you what officer porter's lawyers are doing immediately to try to stop him from being compelled to testify against fellow baltimore police officers. that's the latest live in baltimore. chris gordon, news 4. >> another cold day across our region, but with less wind and sunshine. it was comfortable as long as you were wearing the right amount of clothing. let's take a look and show you the numbers. most areas upper 30s to 40 degrees and 41, and 42 fredericksburg and 37 around

this is just the latest failed response by the d.c. fire department. a new mayor and fire chief have been working to improve response times, but on sunday a man died despite the fact that a fire department truck showed up right outside of his house within minutes. it was sunday afternoon gloria jackson called 911 after her 67-year-old husband albert jackson had collapseded. her grandson performed cpr as mrs. jackson stood by waiting for help to arrive. after no help came mrs. jackson called 911 again. >> i kept running out to see where they were and they took forever. i don't understand what happened. >> according to chief gregory dean, first responders were there within minutes, but they went to the wrong location. dean says when his crew arrived on the street where jackson lived they saw d.c. police helping a person on the sidewalk. they assumed that was the same person who had called them and

since police said that person was okay the firefighters left. when paramedics returned to the correct location it was 20 minutes after the first dispatch. jackson was taken to the hospital, but did not survive. chief dean tells me he believes this was just an unfortunate case of human error. coming up at 5:00, you'll hear from the chief about changes he's implementing because of this incident and you'll hear more from the widow as to whether she thinks that a quicker response could have saved her husband's life. chris, back to you. >> thanks a lot, mark. in a few hours one of you could be a whole lot richer. first at 4:00, it was a big reason to run out and get a lottery ticket and now the huge jackpot just got bigger and you're running out of time to get a piece of it. before you make dinner, an important recall from a local store that could make you and your famil

will fall. 37 in gaithersburg and 40 down towards kull pepper and we'll be back down into the 30s quickly and even in the city by 5:00 and around the 8:00, 9:00 hour and temperatures will fall again and it will be another cold night and it's not going to be windy and it's not going to bite through you. storm team 4 radar, clear and we really have clear skies from boston to d.c. down toward richmond and take a look back to the west. here is a little storm system and it's moving our way and it has showers associated with it down toward dallas and that's what's moving our way tomorrow and we'll see cloud cover first and then a chance of a shower during the day on friday and it will be late friday that we see those showers and most of the actual day should be on the dry side. temperatures tomorrow morning, and 19 in martinsburg and 22 in leesburg. expecting clouds down to the south and not nearly as cold around last night and 25 in d.c. and 29 in fredericksburg and it will be a cold start to our day and we will see more cloud cover

your tail gating forecast coming up in a few minutes. >> thanks, v.j. a man accused of providing the weapons used in last month's deadly attack in san bernardino, california. enrique marquez, jr., pled not guilty to gun, immigration and terror-related charges today. prosecutors say he bought the assault rifles used by syed farook and fash tashfeen malik. they tried to figure out what they did between the shoot-out that killed them. a tweet shows bullets next to photos of two brooklyn lawmakers and it's feeling the debate over guns and violence. one of the national rifle association's publications tweeted this on monday weeks after those lawmakers announced legislation to control the sale of ammunition. whur's troy johnson is here for our talk around town. a lot of people across the country say that tweet comes

across as a threat. what are your listeners saying? >> my listeners that i spoke to are interpreting it the same way. this is a tweet that earned a rebuke even from the mayor of new york city to the nwa. so what i've heard from people is we're talking about a time of safety and we're about a month removed from the attacks in paris and a month removed from what happened in san bernardino and here we are in washington, d.c. with an escalating homicide rate. so folks are telling me, this is the time while it's on people's minds to really address these longtime concerns about gun control in this country and that's the message that folks are saying. one point that a person made to me is these two lawmakers are doing what needs to be done in their community and they feel like this message crosses a line, the message that the nra has been sending out. obviously, a lot of people disagree with these lawmakers and disagree with their

position. president obama would certainly agree with it. he got emotional yesterday in a way we do not usually see him get talking about this. your listeners are coming down on both sides of this. >> they were because many people were happy about what the president had to say yesterday, obviously going above and beyond with this executive measure and they were touched by what he had to say. it's a poignant moment to hear the president run down the list of deadly, ven events that he's to deal with in his time in office. i've heard from people that say there's anger about suggestion that the president was playing up to the cameras and was being anything more than authentic. that angered folks because they heard pundits mentioning comments like that. they said they felt the president was connecting as a leader, as a father and a concerned american, and not everybody was happy with what the president had to say in the speech upon i talked to paul who is a member of the nra and he says this may not be the actual

track we may need to be going down. >> while the president had a lot of passion, in all reality what he said did nothing to change chicago, sandy hook or any of the other tragic killings. it's illegal guns that we have to stop, the atf and giving them money and trying to enforce the laws that we have already. that's the real deal. >> paul tells me he's been a member of the nra for the last 40 years and his primary reason for joining is because he shoots at exclusive gun club it's mandatory at some of those locations and even he says he's concerned about some of the messaging that the nra has been sending out. he says that he feels they're sending a message of fear to some people and it's resonating with the folks. >> the nra is a big organization. you don't have to be of one mind to be a member of the nra. >> absolutely. >> thanks, troy. barbara? >> midnight madness. first at 4:00, the threat from

protesters that could drag on for days in the wake of an accused police officer going free. plus a look into the future. the excitement happening 3,000 mi

today nuclear weapons experts around the world are disputing north korea's claim that it successfully tested the hydrogen bomb. north korea may be building the ultimate weapon of mass destruction is sparking alarm at the u.n. and finger-pointing on the campaign trail. steve handelsman is tracking this story for us. >> thanks, good evening. the seismic waves given off by this device, by this test were not unusually powerful and so nobody here in washington, nobody at the white house is saying they believe the north korean claim that this was a hydrogen bomb which is far, far more powerful and dangerous than a conventional atomic weapon like the north koreans have tested three times previously, but this test is setting off a seismic wave of worry. so all eyes tonight are on china
