only see here on news4. temperatures right now 65 degrees. now 66. veronica and johnson inside right now taking a look at what you could be seeing outside tomorrow and that could be some snow. we're going to start with some breaking news out of europe. one of the suspects from that paris attack has been on the run for four months. now he's in custody in belgium. police raided a home in the molenbeek neighborhood of brussels and they sound saleh abdeslam. >> he organized the transportation for those terrorists in and out of paris before, during, and after that attack that killed 130 people. jim handly is gathering more details at the live desk. he will join news a few minutes. but first to that morning scare on metro. a man says he was dragged momentarily by a train with his arm caught between the doors. >> he only spoke to news4 about what happened. derrick ward is live in northwest d.c. with

got out of the hospital. >> reporter: indeed. this incident started earlier this morning, just after 10:00 a.m. we're outside gw hospital where the man has just been released but he did speak to us about his harrowing ordeal. it happened just after 10:00 a.m. he said he was at the l'enfant plaza station going to catch the blue line. as he gets to the platform he sees the train there. the doors are starting to close. he runs up to the train and puts his arm in the door, and this is where things really started to get scary. let's hear what he has to say. >> i'm still like this. so i had to snatch my arm out like i'm hulk hogan or he man. it was like a runaway train. now i'm tumbling. i hit the side of the train and it knocked me back on the platform and i get up and i'm just in a daze because the train is still moving. >> reporter: and so as he puts his arm in that door, obviously the train starts to move. now, there's some things that are being disputed by metro. he s

conductor look at him and that the conductor did a little move to get the doors clear but then his arm was still in the door when the train started to move. and we have spoken to metro and just about four minutes ago they released a statement. they dispute this was a dragging incident. they say he traveled along the exterior of the train and he put a bag or something in the doors and that is how he got entangled. they have yet to talk to this gentleman, to mr. powell. they do say they want to get their safety investigators in touch with him. he is out of the hospital, and this remains under investigation. we'll have more on the incident later today on news4 and also more on what metro has to say about all of that. right now we're live in northwest. derrick ward, news4. back to you. >> thank you, derrick. oh, gosh. snow in spring. it's set to arrive not just during your weekend but also during the first day of spring. >> heck of a time, huh, doug? >> it really is amazing but it seems we get a storm

weekend like every other year or something like that. it's really hard to imagine it's going to be snowing at this time tomorrow afternoon in many areas because temperatures out right now are in the 60s. we're at 66 right now in d.c. 68 richmond. 62 in hagerstown. the much cooler air will make its way in here overnight into the day tomorrow. right now we've got two systems. look at this guy, a little system here, but that's where the colder air is coming from, from the north, and then this system, a bigger system will move in during the day tomorrow. so what are we talking about? your headlines tonight, rain and snow move in. during the day tomorrow a little faster now as we continue to update this forecast. we will see some accumulation in parts of the area and then if you're thinking we're going to stay in the cold, maybe a couple day days, but then back to springtime warmth. we'll talk about the timing of this snow, when it develops, who has the best chance to see some of that accumulation. veronica johnson and i are in all afternoon. >> thanks, doug. and you're going to want to stay ahead of this snow in weekend. when you download the

washington app you can track the radar live and we'll send you alerts as the snow starts to impact our area. also we have a traffic alert for you. you should expect delays along this very busy stretch of wisconsin avenue in bethesda. some of the southbound lanes near bradley boulevard will be closed because crews are trying to repair a sinkhole. that work started this morning. it's expected to last for the next two days so beware of that. today marks one week since a beloved elderly man was found murdered at his home in lorton. there's still no word on who killed him. investigators are back at the house and they've been there all week looking for clues. it happened on river drive right along the potomac. meagan, it sounds like the police need some help with this one. >> reporter: yeah, chris. that's exactly right. they're still asking neighbors and community members who might have seen something or heard something that night to contact them. you might remember it was a week ago that this road right here, river road, was blocked off. cars couldn't come through, cars couldn't leave. it was thatay

scouring the area, jumping into the potomac. searching for evidence. the map focus was here at this house behind me. this is where johan de leede was shot and killed. investigators right now are still searching for answers. it has been one week since fairfax county police say 83-year-old johan de leede was shot multiple times inside his river drive home. >> it just seems such an unlikely target. >> reporter: and neighbors are still struggling to understand why their friend was murdered. >> it's so bizarre. we're all speculating, and we just can't come up with any reasonable scenario. >> reporter: so far police can't either. they searched the home, scoured the area, and divers even entered the potomac but seven days later the mystery of who killed johan de leede remains. >> i think we all want to know what happened hopefully

members over the phone today. we understand that there are folks here at the house right now, but they asked for privacy, which certainly is understandable. coming up at 5:00, we spoke with a neighbor who recalls the moment she had an opportunity to speak with johan and it just happened to be hours before he was murdered. back to you. >> meagan fitzgerald. thanks, meagan. developing, new details about the threatening letter sent to donald truch's son. an nfl arrived at eric trump's home in new york city last night and it contained a suspicious white powder. that powder was turned out to be harmless, but a handwritten letter said that if donald trump does not drop out of the presidential race, quote, the next envelope will be -- won't be fake. the letter was postmarked march 5th. it was mailed from a post office in boston. a woman who pled gilley to embezzling hundreds of thousands of dollars from a virginia lawmak lawmaker's campaign fund was sentenced to more than 4 1/2 years in prison. federal prosecutors no

this is the system back to the west bringing some snow back towards denver, around kansas city. that storm system moves our way along the front, and by the time it gets here, we're talking about a mix of rain and snow early tomorrow. starting off tomorrow morning on the dry side. temperatures should be in the low 40s starting off the day. so not a bad start. but then around 1:00 we start to see the moisture move in, and notice by 6:00 we've got rain and snow across the area. it will start as rain first and then quickly change over to snow as the heavier precipitation starts to move in. and by the overnight hours, if you're heading out tomorrow night on saturday night, notice we have rain south and east of i-95. north and west of i-95, this is all snow. as we move on through the night into early sunday morning, same deal. notice the rain/snow line. it's always i-95 and it is again. if you live in southern maryland, most likely for you it's all rain. down toward the northern neck around fredericksburg, to the north, frederick, gaithersburg, winchester, leesburg, this will most likely be

how much are we going to see? well, rain down to the south. maybe a mix around waldorf and fredericksburg. one to two inches, d.c., baltimore, warrenton and leesburg, but that is only on the grassy surfaces, only on cars, only on the rooftops, only on trees, not on the roadways. so we're not calling for a big event here. to the west, this is the area we think could be a little more of an impact, win chchesterwinchese of west virginia, these are areas we could see slick spots. that's the area you want to watch out for as we move through the day. high of only 38 on sunday, but that snow will melt during the afternoon on sunday. 45 on monday. up to 55 on tuesday, and then temperatures really climb from there. veronica johnson has more on what to expect as we make our way through the next couple days. right now, this is storm team4 friday. we are on facebook right now, facebook live. join us on facebook live. go to our nbc washington page.
