where everything took place just after 3:00. we have new information from nbc news pete williams who says his law enforcement sources are telling him the possible motive for this incident today is suicide by cop. this man may have intended to be killed by police officers today. he is now in critical condition at a local hospital. at 3:06 this afternoon, secret service say a man with a gun approached the white house lawn here near the ellipse. secret service officers ordered the man to stand down, to put his weapon down multiple times, and he refused. at that point, a secret service agent opened fire and shot the man one time, bringing him down. he was then taken to a nearby hospital. we have an eyewitness who was there. this is how she describes that scene. >> probably like is a feet away from me, this guy comes walking by me and has a gun in his hand.

he just keeps walking. he kind of walks around a group of crowds, walks in between a few cars. we see him walking up to the gate. we saw the police officers come in and shoot him down. >> reporter: again, witnesses saying they say a man near the ellipse behind the white house walking with a handgun in plain sight when police ordered him to put down the gun. he refused. the fbi is still investigating this man's background. we're told from sources he is from the allentown area of pennsylvania. d.c. police have taken over this investigation. we just saw their forensics lab roll onto the property of the white house about a half an hour ago. that is the very latest here on 17th street. mark segraves, news4. immediately after the shooting, the secret service and d.c. police focused on a parked car possibly belonging to the gunman. >> jackie bensen is along 15th

jackie? >> reporter: jim, a d.c. police mobile crime unit just rolled up to this scene. what we have been watching here are investigators going up to that vehicle, the white chevy malibu you can see over there with the trunk and the hood up with pennsylvania license plates, they have been taking out items inside that vehicle and putting them into brown paper evidence bags. we saw a white plastic bag that appeared to have something in it. i can also tell you we have noticed that there are a group of three women here who are dressed as tourists. those women have each been questioned separately and extensively by d.c. police and have been here this entire time and appear to have been asked to wait here to talk to investigators. there is a possibility that these women, these visitors, were witness to something that

happened down here prior to when this man walked onto the grounds of the ellipse. we don't know exactly what that is, but there are a large number of orange cones down there that police sometimes do use to mark evidence and that is the area in which those women are sitting. again, right now investigators are going through a vehicle that we believe belongs to the man that was shot. trying to pull anything out of there that might give them a feeling for exactly why he did this, trying to put everything together. jackie bensen, ws4. back to you. as noted, the white house lockdown has been lifted, but lafayette park remains shut down right now. as you can imagine, quite a chaotic scene from the point of view from the people that were nearby. >> shomari stone talked to some of those witnesses. he joins us now. >> reporter: indeed, some of those witnesses tell me they were very scared, surprised. some of them heard at least one shot fired.

this yellow crime scene tape at 17th street and northwest f street. it's completely blocked off. let's roll some video. folks were here when this happened. there were a group of people who were from the "be me" community organization who were supposed to get a presidential award for their community service. 30,000 hours of community service. all of a sudden this shooting happened. we're now going to take the time to hear from them. let's hear what they have to say. >> all of a sudden, we heard shots fired and a row of secret service came past us with guns blazed. we were just scared. we didn't know what was next. what was going to happen, where we should go, what we should do. we were just frozen literally in place. >> reporter: the shooting happened within a view

seers outside the white house. a lot of the employees who work in some of the federal buildings around here have decided to call it a day. they have gone home. many of them could not go back that their buildings, so they said we're going home. we'll continue to bring you updates on our story as they become available on our website. live near the white house, i'm shomari stone. u.s. park police launched their helicopter right after the shooting, monitoring the situation from the air. >> the suspect was taken by ambulance to george washington university hospital. kristin wright is there with the latest on the situation. >> reporter: we just received confirmation in the past 15 minutes from a hospital spokesperson that he is in fact still in c

after being shot, of course, once by a secret service agent. we have some video of that ambulance rushing from the scene there near the white house. we're told from the secret service that a secret service uniform division officer and an agent did provide medical aid there at the scene, but then he was rushed here to george washington university hospital. we arrived a short time after that. we have been standing overy the emergency room since then. it has really appeared to be business as usual, but we have been walking around the building, asking, calling, e-mailing a hospital spokesperson to try to find out what we can. oft oftentimes in these situations medical information is kept very private. that is the law, but they do sometimes provide information when situations are sort of big and very public such as this. they have confirmed to us in the past few minutes the man who was shot there by secret service near the white house is still in critical condition. that's the latest here at george washington university hospital.

the wreckage belonging to that flight. that is the single biggest confirmation that we have so far that in fact the egyptian military is making some progress in finding the sight te of this wreckage. where the flight data recorder as well as the cockpit voice recorder? where is the wreckage site itself? the items that were retrieved today were located 180 miles north of the port city of alexandria here in egypt. meanwhile here in egypt today, the country's president el sisi issued a statement offering his condolences to the family of the victims who died. still no clear answers as to what brought the plane down, but the investigation and the search for

more breaking news involving a major shakeup at metro. general manager has fired 20 managers. adam tuss obtained an internal memo that was sent to transit agency employees today. among those fires, seven senior managers and more than 1/3 were from the rail side of operations. the general manager is streamlining the management to impro improvefecti improve effectiveness and accountability. you can read the gm's entire memo in our nbc washingtop.

politics now. donald trump picked up an endorsement from the national rifle association this afternoon. he taught a friendly crowd there several times in fact that hillary clinton wants to abolish the second amendment. >> chuck todd joins us now. that quote, the first we've heard hillary is planning to get rid of the second amendment. >> this is part of a conscious effort by trump over the last ten days to basically try to calm conservatives down. they don't believe he's a real conservative. they don't believe him on social policies. he released that list of supreme court nominees. today it wasn't like he was being pro-gun. he was going to take it to the extreme. this was a guy that not long ago was in favor of the assault weapons ban and the expanded background c

largely, especially when you compare to what hillary clinton is having to deal with bernie sanders, he looks like he's having an easier time uniting his party than the democrats are now. >> is that campaign stuff we're hearing from her now claiming that trump is unqualified and that she is going to win? >> right now, i think that is her message to bernie sanders, enough is enough. i'm going to be the nominee. you have to deal with it. i'm doing everything i can to unify the party, but you need to do something too. we'll see how everybody reacts to that message on the sanders front. with trump, they're looking for a way to -- there's so many ways they think they can hit him. there's been a divide among some democrats. do you call him risky or not, for instance. some say don't say he's risky or unpredictable because there's upside to that to some

that's the concern on that. that's why she went straight to he's unqualified. she wants to be definitive in our criticism of him. her problem is she's got an anti-trump message, but she still doesn't have a great pro-clinton message. sanders had a pro-sanders message. trump has his own pro-trump message. she still needs to find that galvanizing message that gets democrats to be fired up about her. >> still slugging it out with bernie sanders. i want to talk about democratic vice presidential candidates. we've been hearing about tim kaine. >> we've got marc cuban, the dallas mavericks owner. i asked him about it. he joked about it he would do it if he got to be uninterrupted in attack

if she called him up, he would consider it. s he just wants her to move a little more to the center. newt gingrich wants it bad. he meets the qualifications that trump said he wants, somewhat of a washington insider. i think he knows he needs a woman. i think he needs to gender diversify his ticket. i would keep an eye out on the governor of oklahoma. she vetoed that very harsh abortion ban bill in oklahoma. she's somebody that would pass conservative litmus tests and would be seen as call fyqualifia job. >> more than a bona fide conservative though. >> i think he needs gender diversity badly. he needs to fix his numbers with hispanics and aic

i think when you look there are not many hispanic republicans that would join the ticket. i think he ends up looking at a women. >> you mentioned bernie a minute ago. what's going to happen? what are you seeing there? >> i thought it was interesting. i think his supporters are still fired up and it is understandable. dick durbin number two leader in the senate said sanders called him up and assured him i'm going to unify around this party. don't worry. everything is going to be okay. the pressure points clinton can use against sander to bring him into the fold are with the united states senate. he is still going to be a senator in 2017. he wants the democratic leadership to still let him be a democrat. i think they have a way of telling sanders, okay, you can make some noise at the convention. you know those committee chairmanships w

before? gone. old washington at work. >> you also have hillary clinton on the show this weekend. we invite you to tune in sunday morning at 10:30 here on nbc4. washington d.c.'s board of elections says it is taking steps to help people with disabilities to get inside polling places for the primary next month. that announcement comes a few days after a news4 i-team investigation revealed complaints about accessibility. that report found almost 40 d.c. polling sites had some type of accessibility problem in 2014. several locations still have challenges for people with disabilities. they include steep ramps, heavy doors, broken or missing automatic door buttons. two days after our report, the board of elections announced it will try to prop open at least some of those doors and check to ensure doorbells are working for

oliveri. he was attempting to commit suicide by cop. there was only one shot fired in this incident and that's when a secret service agent shot him. he walked up to a perimeter checkpoint with a gun in his hand. that's backed up by several witnesses. we just got some new reaction from a man who was waiting to get into the white house when he heard the shot. >> all i heard was one shot fired, boom. backfire. we kind of all turned around. guys who have lived in urban areas know the sound of that. about 30 seconds later, the officers closed the door. they locked it down. one officer comes out through the side door. over his radio, i could hear suspect down, suspect down, shot

fired, shot fired. at that point, they said get down, get down. move, move, move. >> scary stuff. multiple agencies are looking into the shooting at the local and national level. d.c. has the lead, but the fbi, secret service, and atf will all take part in the investigation. right now oliveri is in critical condition. the girlfriend of a man who was shot and killed in fairfax county says she thinks she knows why he was killed. >> the victim worked with children in fairfax county schools. chris gordon joins us live with what we're learning about him. >> reporter: the victim tarreece sampson had a college degree, but his girlfriend tells me what he loved to do best is work with troubled children. they're not saying publicly what they believe the motive for his murder was, but his girlfd

shares with us what she's been able to learn. the crime scene is the parking lot of the apartments where he lived. tarreece sampson returned home last night. his girlfriend tells me he saw a crime in progress. >> i heard from his mom. as far as i know he got home and walked into a situation where people breaking into cars. and he tried to ask them what they were doing or what was going on and they shot him. >> reporter: the shooting has unnerved people who live here. >> i didn't expect it here. it is a little concerning. >> that's really tragic in this area. it's not the first time i've heard gunshots unfortunately. i just really hope that his family is okay. >> reporter: tarreece sampson had his own marketing and photography business, but recently chose to work as a classroom instructional assistant at fort hunt elementary school. >> he just really wanto

transportation reporter adam tuss got an internal memo on those firings, and adam joins us now on the phone. adam, this is not exactly a surprise, is it? >> i don't think that, jim. i think the writing has been on the wall for a lot of these managers. this goes back a couple of weeks when the general manager sent out an internal memo to all of his managers, all 650-plus managers by that way in the metro system, reminding them they are at-will employees. if he finds any reason, he can simply dismiss them. we've been hearing rumblings there were going to be some massive shakeups. today was the day he decided to do that. 20 top managers gone. 7 senior officials. the names have not been publicly released, but i'm told there were

today. he's made a lot of bold moves si in the six months since he's been there. this is just another one of them. >> do you think he's done with the firings? >> i don't exactly. from the people i talked to, it sounds like he's going to go and try to clean things up a little bit more. one of the things the general manager has talked about are the silos at metro. you talk about an agency of 13,000 employees. there are too many people that report to too many people. what he's trying to do is clean all that up, to streamline the system, so that there are only so many people that can make tough decisions about the transit agency. frankly, that's what they need right now. no, i don't expect them to be done at all. >> thanks, adam. we appreciate it. some troubling new numbers about the zika virus tonight. 279 pregnant women in the united states have tested positive for the zika virus according to the

as of may 12th, federal health officials are monitoring 157 pregnant women in the continental united states and 122 pregnant women in the u.s. territories, specifically puerto rico. the cdc says the uptick is reflected in the way cases are reported and not an increase in cases. top health experts update president obama on the zika fight. >> here's the upshot. this is something that is solvable. it is not something that we have to panic about. but it is something that we have to take seriously. congress needs to get me a bill. it needs to get me a bill that has sufficient funds to do the job. they should not be going off on recess before this is done. >> the president has asked congress for $1.9 billion for res
