when police and secret service knocked on moles's hotel room door, he told them he had guns in his car. that's when he was arrested on gun charges. according to the police report, he had a glock handgun, an ak-15 assault rifle and 90 rounds of ammunition. now, moles also told police he had ammunition inside his hotel room. he also told them that he was self-medicating on marijuana inside his hotel room because he sferds from post-traumatic stress disorder. he served 14 years, he's a decorated navy veteran, he's a doctor in pennsylvania. so to get you caught up with what's going on in the courtroom, his attorney argued that there's no reason to hold him until his next hearing, because he's a law abiding citizen who mistakenly came into the district of columbia, with guns that are legal in his home state. but the prosecutors say, no, that they are concerned that he was acting suspiciously and he poses, in their words, a grave danger to the public if he is

the federal prosecutors were citing federal law and had not presented that case work to the judge in advance for him to be prepared. so he told the federal prosecutors he's going to hold this case until the end of his docket this evening and take a recess to review the law and then he will come back and rule on whether or not bryan moles will be released on his own recognizance or whether he'll be held without judge until tomorrow afternoon before a federal judge. that's the very latest. >> thank you, mark. we shall overcome. that was the message at the national museum for african american history and culture today. staff and guests standing together after the discovery of a noose inside there. news4's kristin wright is gathering reaction, including from a passer who says he's not letting this shake his faith. kristin? >> reporter: that's right. people who work over at the national museum of the american indian came over here to

you know what, we stand united with you. ♪ ♪ we shall overcome >> reporter: a spontaneous moment of unity outside the national museum of african american history and culture. founding director lonnie bunch came out and spoke to supporters. >> and what i love is look at the faces. it's america at its best. unbelievably diverse, it's a group of people that help us remember what america can be. >> reporter: bunch says these are some of the museum's most difficult times. a noose was found on the floor of a gallery on segregation wednesday. it was in front of a display on the kkk. the museum said it has cameras in that area, but won't comment on what images they may or may not have. reverend lewis from atlanta said the discovery of the noose is a remind t

trying to suggest that we're not equal to other american citizens because of our color. that's tragic. >> reporter: but he's not sitting down. >> that we really need to, in protest of this, rise above it. and let the people know who would try to do this, that we're not going back there. ♪ ♪ >> we will put our arms around each other, that we will love each other, and that we will not be separated. >> reporter: there is extra security at the museum today. now, our chris lawrence continues our coverage now with a closer look at some of the other unfortunate incidents involving nooses in our area recently. chris? >> yeah, unfortunate is right. this isn't the first time a noose has popped up at a place that symbolizes tolerance or education. back at the end of april, someone hung a noose inside the fi kappa fraternity house at the university of maryland. then just four days later, bananas tied to nooses were

campus and that coincided with the same day the first black woman took over as student government president. no one has been arrested in either of those cases. then on may 11th, in anne arundel county, a teacher found a noose hanging from a light fixture at crofton middle school. police arrested someone in that crime. just last friday, someone left a noose hanging on a free near the hirshhorn museum and skuculptur garden. and just yesterday, that incident was the fifth in a little more than a month. people reacting to the news that a noose was found hanging inside the national museum of african american history and culture. >> thank you, chris. well, right now, environmental activists and progressive groups are holding a climate change rally outside the white house in lafayette park. late this afternoon, president trump annou

withdrawing the u.s. from the paris climate accord. he said he wants to look for a better deal. but as blayne alexander reports, more than 200 countries have already agreed to this deal. blayne? >> reporter: yeah, wendy, and already a number of european leaders have said this deal cannot be renegotiated. as you may imagine, reaction has been coming in very quickly to this news. perhaps most notably from former president barack obama, he's the one who negotiated that deal. his statement came through before president trump had even finished his speech. remember, this is a global agreement. up until this point, only two countries declined to participate. we're talking about syria and nicaragua, and now the united states is adding its name to the list. no deal, president trump announcing today, the u.s. will pull out of the paris climate accord, the global agreement to cut greenhouse gas emissions. >> so we're getting out. but we will

and we will see if we can make a deal that's fair. >> reporter: the move fulfills a campaign promise while ending a major obama deal. >> it is time to put youngstown, ohio, detroit, michigan, and pittsburgh, pennsylvania, before paris, france. it is time to make america great again. thank you. >> reporter: it's an issue that has divided even his closest advisers. outside the white house, more than two dozen major companies joining environmental groups and others, saying, continue the agreement. >> we all share the air. you can't build a border wall against carbon dioxide emissions. >> reporter: 22 republican senators urging a decision to leave. >> i do know this, it would be a huge job loss for america. >> reporter: but on the morning of his major announcement, the president tweeted about the very thing his white house is trying to

this as nbc news has learned that investigators are looking into whether president trump himself met with russian ambassador sergei kislyak, a central figure in the investigation. and a date for the highly anticipated testimony of former fbi director james comey is now set, one week from today. and comey will speak publicly in open session for about three hours or so, before continuing that hearing behind closed doors. now, he is expected to talk about his interactions with president trump, but he's not expected to go into the investigation itself. either way, leon, a lot of people looking forward to hearing what he has to say. back to you. >> that's for sure. all right, blayne alexander, thanks for that. new reaction to the report that two russian compounds in the u.s. may be returned to the russian government. one is on maryland's eastern shore, the other, long island. we sent chopper4 to take a look at that maryland property. youoo

back in december, president obama said the compounds were used for spying. the properties were seized. now "the washington post" reports that trump's administration is considering a plan to allow russia to re-occupy the properties without giving anything in return. the top democrat on the house intelligence committee told nbc news today that he would be horrified if the properties are returned without concessions from moscow. adding to the intrigue, the russian embassy sent a tweet ten days ago, threatening unspecified counter measures if the property is not returned to moscow's control. and vladimir putin made an interesting reversal today when he hinted that private russian hackers may have been involved in the cyber attacks during our presidential campaign. he had previously denied any russian role at all. nbc's megyn kelly is in russia, and she will ask putin about the shift in an exclusive one-on-one interview. you can see her reporting on the

residents to tear the flyers down. news4's chris gordon is in southwest, d.c., a neighborhood that's been plastered with the flyers. >> reporter: these flyers are fake, because they are not authorized by i.c.e. or the d.c. government. they contain a phone number urging people to call and report undocumented immigrants so they can be deported. i dialed that number just short time ago, and i got a recorded message that sounded like it was from i.c.e., but i.c.e. is disavowing these flyers. >> it's hurtful to see this. >> reporter: carlos said his parents are immigrants and he's worried about the message on the flyers posted all around his southwest neighborhood. >> whoever is doing this, should be ashamed of themselves. and they're causing concern for these illegal immigrants. >> reporter: the phony flyer are glued onto light poles and power boxes. they are entitled u.s. immigration and customs enforcement, using the words

them could result in a prison sentence of five years. d.c. mayor muriel bowser immediately called the flyers fake, she said they are meant to scare and divide the city. >> we know over the last year, year and a half that we've just seen the type of rhetoric that incites hate. >> reporter: i.c.e. says, any person who actively incites panic or fear of law enforcement is doing a disservice to the community. many people who work in southwest, washington, are relieved to learn the flyers were not distributed by i.c.e. >> since it's fake, obviously people are trying to spread some kind of warning or hate around the neighborhood and i feel like that's not okay. >> reporter: now, in

park, maryland, the acting police chief put out an e-mail to residents, saying, if you find fake flyers, tear them down. because takoma park has no interest in deporting immigrants. that's the latest, back to you. >> thank you, chris. dramatic new video from the night of the pulse nightclub shooting in orlando. police body cameras captured the chaotic scene as the first responders arrived to what is now the worst mass shooting in american history. we do want to warn you, some of the video can be disturbing. here's a report by nbc's sarah dallof. >> units have just arrived. >> back up. watch out for crossfire. >> stay at that door for cover. >> reporter: raw fear. and heartbreak. >> keep walking, keep walking, keep walking. >> reporter: in the early morning hours of june 12th, 2016. >> i got someone shot back here. i need some help. >> reporter: as recorded by law enforcement body cameras. they show a nightclub
