>> good morning everyone. i'm eun yang. i'm angie goff. >> aaron is joining us live from las vegas. i know you had a long day yesterday. give us the feeling of what's happening in las vegas, especially in the hours you've spent there. >> reporter: at 2:00 in the morning here in las vegas right now. we're set up outside the mandalay bejo tell, sort of inside the cordoned off area. no people in this area. you go a block down the strip, you will see a lot of people moving about in and out of casinos and restaurants in that area. for right now, there is a sense of quiet as police have blocked off this area around the mandalay bay hotel and the concert venue across the street from the hotel. still a lot of investigation happening here in las vegas after the shooting that happened here sunday night. we'll have much more about what we've learned in the overnight hours in a secretary. >> aaron, what about the las vegas strip and people coming

lost. what are you seeing thoon that front. >> reporter: except for a two-block area of the strip, the rest of the strip is open. you'll see people moving about, business as usual. the thing that struck me as odd, there wasn't much that was very odd. having been to vegas before, you saw people moving around like they normally would when they come to enjoy the city. that combined with memorials around the area, that's the sight you see as you move through vegas today. >> aaron gilchrist for us in las vegas this morning. we'll check back in with you shortly. thank you. we want to tell you more about getting ready for your tuesday. we're working for with your forecast. this is just spectacular weather in my book. >> loving it. >> doesn't get better than sunny, warm, not too hot, right? >> no. sunny and 75. like san diego. >> for fall lovers, they're waiting for this to be over. >> 75 no prob

potentially back in the 80s, for me, that's a little too warm this deep into october. >> high now 73 degrees. we'll be close to average today. a comfortable start to your morning. nice autumn chill out in the shenandoah valley, some of the nearby neighborhoods. chantilly and dulles airport in the mid-40s. mid to upper 50s along route 50 from the d.c. area to the bay. look at this planner. how about 40s to get you started. sun is up just after 7:00. highs today, low to mid-70s. abundance of sunshine. if you need it warmer than that, tomorrow we'll be flirting with 80 degrees and the 80s for thursday and friday. i have the five-day forecast coming up. for now, it's traffic time. that means it's time to hear from mr. jack taylor. >> thanks, chuck. on 210 northbound, the overnight crash is gone. but it sounds as if we have an issue heading towards the beltway. after wilson bridge drive. fender bender there taking away the right

got about another hour of their work. traffic alternates by one direction at a time there. also in virginia, the express lanes out of springfield on the inner loop headed towards 66. this is a paving project. they're in the wrap-up stages. for now, the lanes remain blocked. >> jack, thank you. it's 5:03. route 210 between farmington and livingston roads is back open after a deadly accident earlier this morning. >> police say that a man was driving southbound when he hit a guardrail. he was pronounced dead at the scene. aaa says this is arguably one of the most dangerous stretches of road in the d.c. area. before today, half a dozen people, six people were killed in this same area. now, back to our coverage of the las vegas massacre. take a look. this is new video of the fbi's searching the room of stephen paddock. it is on the 32nd floor of the mandalay bay resort along the las vegas strip. hundreds of feet abo t

festival where he opened fire. >> people had no idea, aaron, that this man was holed up in that hotel room with more than a dozen guns ready to kill. >> reporter: angie and eun, he had assembled an arsenal in the two rooms that he had, adjoining rooms in the mandalay bay hotel. 500 yards from the concert grounds here, he was able to square up and fire off so many rounds that hit hundreds of people there in the crowd. obviously, this was a scene that went from celebration, joy, a concert going on, to a scene of devastation and fear. now, here's what we've learned since you went to sleep last night. the fbi has been combing through that hotel room where 64-year-old stephen paddock carried out this horrible assault. you can hear the gunshots in the video there.

together about 23 guns this that room. he had 19 more in his home about 80 miles away from here. two nevada gun shops tell nbc news that he passed the required background checks. 59 people are dead, 527 people hurt here now. a lot of the people wounded are in critical condition and eun, we're hearing stories of people in their hospital beds at this point trying to find the first responders, the complete strangers who did everything they could to help them as they were in agony and pain at the concert grounds the other night. we're learning more stories about the men and women who were hurt here. >> that's right. we've learned that two of them, two women are from our area. tina yost graduated from anne arundel high school in 2008. her family tells nbc news she's in critical condition after sunday's shooting and also denise

this was what she was posting before she -- her husband deleted a post that she died. the two were high school sweethearts and married for decades. denise leaves behind two children and four grandchildren. this morning, the las vegas community and the entire country just want to know why this happened. >> reporter: eun, that may be the question that is going to be very hard to answer. by all accounts, he seemed like a regular guy. you heard from his brother yesterday who said that repeatedly when he tried to understand what his brother had done. paddock was a retired accountant, successful real estate developer and experienced gambler we understand. police say he chencked into mandalay bay last thursday. he brought all the ammunition. he kept it hidden from the housekeeping staff here we understand. we know that his father was once on the fbi's ten most wanted list years ago. but the

had a serious run-in with the law. we know he killed himself before police were able to storm into his room sunday night or early monday morning. so far, investigators say they haven't found any notes, no e-mails, no social media postings indicating how long he had been developing this plan. they don't believe he had any help. just a lot of unanswered questions. the las vegas police department, as well as the fbi, the atf, all working together to come up with answers about what happened here. we do know that president trump will travel to las vegas tomorrow to meet with some of the first responders here and quite possibly with some of the victims in hospitals around this city as will. for now, back to you. >> they really are the heroes here, first responders who ran into the sound of gunfire to help the victims. just incredible stories of heroism there. aaron, thank you. we'll check back in, in a minute. we'll have much more on las vegas coming up. many of you reached out looking for ways to help

started to provide relief and support to the victims and families. we saw long lines for the blood drives. really needed blood to be donated. people were coming out to help. >> that was so difficult for people watching this unfold at home. they felt helpless. moving ahead, if you want to make a donation, go to our app and search help las vegas. you can find more information about the local victims right there in our app. 5:08 now. we have breaking news. we now know officially that rock star tom petty has died. >> music lovers all over the country are mourning right now. petty went into cardiac arrest yesterday morning. he was put on life support and then his manager confirmed just after midnight that the singer had, indeed, died. >> he was 66 years old. you may have seen the news yesterday. but there were some false reports. chris lawrence is at the live desk to explain the confusion. that's why we say officially. there wa

>> look, i can understand yits confusing. on monday afternoon, i was seeing posts on my facebook page that tom petty was already dead. >> now, i'm free. ♪ free falling >> what happened was the lapd tweeted some inaccurate information which it later retracted and apologized for. not before networks and websites started reporting that petty had died. we did not. only said he had gone into cardiac arrest. petty's daughter criticized the reporting. john mayer tweeted, i've loved tom petty and i've covered his songs because i wanted to know what it knelt like to fly. >> sheryl crow said this is unbearable. vegas and now a great music hero passed. you brought us so much boy. he was known for american girl and free falling and so many

surging on itunes. back to you. >> not surprising there. chris, thank you. it's 5:10. after much criticism, the president and first lady are going to san juan today. they will get a briefing on hurricane relief efforts and president trump will visit people who are impacted by the storm. we've seen the devastation there. the island has been without power for weeks now and for many people the situation is so dire. >> 95% of the island in the dark. >> our doreen gentzler is out in one neighborhood in san juan where neighbors are starting to survey the damage and starting to clean up. >> reporter: here in san juan, there are no lights on except for the light from our camera. you can see people are still trying to clean up. the floodwaters in this neighborhood didn't go down until yesterday. so there's still a lot of work to be done here. you can look around and see complete

their power is going to be back on. one homeowner who moved everything from its first floor out on the street today told me he's been through hurricanes before, but this one was different. this took out the whole island. this time people across puerto rico aren't able to help each other. coming up later this evening on news 4 at 4:00, 5:00 and 6:00, i hope to have live reports about what's happening with the navy hospital ship, the comfort, expected to arrive in port in san juan about 9:00 this morning. i'll see you then. >> thanks, doreen. that floating hospital has one of the largest trauma centers anywhere in the u.s. you can watch doreen's live report from that incredible 900-foot ship starting at 11:00 a.m. on news 4 midday. 'skins fans waking up to a d disappointing result. there's always another game ahead. >> the biggest cheerleader

the w. >> the kick is good! >> the team went head to head with the kansas city chiefs last night on monday night football. it was close at the end. but not enough. redskins lost to the chiefs 29-20. i know that was painful. >> it was a good showing. it wasn't that they were blown out. we thought we had a chance. >> they should have. the team will get some time to rest and rethink their game plan through. they have almost two weeks off. is that a good thing? >> i hope so. we'll see them back on the field october 15th when they host the san francisco 49ers. good tuesday morning. light jacket weather again this morning as you wake up and walk outside. sunny skies. another beautiful day. we'll see temperatures getting closer to 60 degrees by 9:00 a.m. coming up, we'll talk about a rm

>> we are also going to check back in with aaron. he's live in las vegas reporting this

ralpand as a doctor, nobody ever asked if i'm a democrat or republican. they just want my help. so if donald trump is helping virginia i'll work with him. but donald trump proposed cutting virginia's school funding, rolling back our clean air and water protections,

as a candidate for governor, i sponsored this ad because i've stood up to donald trump on all of it. ed gillespie refuses to stand up to him at all.

i'm aaron gilchrist live along the las vegas strip where there is still a police presence here tonight. you may be able to see the flashing lights beside me and behind me here right across from the mandalay bay hotel which is open for business today. there are still people staying in the hotel, walking in and out and around this area as police are still cordoning off part of the area between the hotel and the concert venue where the shooting happened last night. one of the things that's been so impressive quite frankly, here is the people's will to try to come together in spite of the tragedy that happened here sunday night. take a look at video from one of the vigils that happened here in las vegas area last night. dozens of people came together at this particular vigil. not too far from the shooting scene to hold candle, they held each other. they try to come grips with what happened here sunday night. some survivors of the shooting were at that vigil, too. they shared their stories about

event. we know there was one woman there who said that we didn't know where to go, she said. she kept running until we kornt hear the gunfire anymore. we know that the shooter reloaded weapons or got new weapons as he was carrying out that assault. we will likely see more vigils across las vegas today. quite possibly in the days to come. there were impromptu vigils in front of hotels. the fountains at the bellagio have flowers and trinkets out there. lots of places in the city are going to see vigils, people trying to pray for the folks injured and killed here sunday night. for now, back to the studio to you guys. >> thank you, aaron. a lot of people feeling that's all they can do at this moment. they feel they want to help and there's so much helplessness and hopefully hope that comes out of that city. thanks, aaron. we'll see you in 15 minutes. it's 5:17.

story out of prince george's county now. a little girl is home safe after police say a man sexually assaulted her. >> news 4's justin finch is live in port washington where this happened. justin, do police have any leads on who is behind this, who the suspect is? it's so disturbing. >> reporter: disturbing indeed, angie. but no, at this time police don't have any leads. that little girl walking home from school if her bus stop when police say she became a target right where we are right now. let's give you a sense of where we are. the devon hills apartment complex. last thursday she was walking home from her school bus stop when this man swooped in and pulled her between two cars and that is where he touched her inappropriately. the relief in this story is that she was able to get away and tell police her story. what police need right now is to get more information about

october is breast cancer awareness month. we're working with you to dispel some myths about breast cancer. how do we know what to believe when it doms breast cancer? our first myth is that young

>> aaron gilchrist is live in las vegas this morning. aaron, a lot of people are asking, why would this man, stephen paddock, do something this horrific? >> reporter: that is definitely the enduring question here this morning. the question that investigators hope they can eventually answer by pulling apart stephen paddock's life. to get at everything he can find out about him over the last several days and several years of his life for that matter. we want to let you know that las vegas is typically a city that is one filled with fun and bright lights. you're looking at some live pictures this morning of the mandalay bay resort and casino. this morning, people are grieving along with the rest of the country. as you see the live images here. just over 24 hours ago a gunman carried out what is the worst mass shooting in american history in terms of the number of people who died. you take a look. these are the windows that stephen

night. the windows he shot out of, i should say. we understand he sort of banged the windows out with some sort of hammer. we can see them on the street. we can see them from my hotel room. i posted pictures of my vantage point. investigators say that he smashed them out. he had to do that since the hotel rooms in las vegas, the windows don't open at that particular hotel. he had to be able to take aim at the concert venue across the street. you can see it's two windows on either side of the hotel and the room where he was staying. the fbi, we know, spent hours digging through that room. he stockpiled 23 guns there. police say he checked into the mandalay bay hotel last thursday. he brought in all those guns and ammunition himself, along with his luggage. he kept it all hidden from the housekeeping staff here. another team of agents and investigators also went to paddock's home in mesquite, nevada. that's about 80 miles outside las vegas. you can see some of the video here.

guns inside his home there. so far investigators say they haven't found noits, no e-mails or social e-mail postings to say how long he had been developing this plan. paddock's brother says he's dumbfounded and can't figure out why his brother would do something like this. but that is the question everyone will be asking for the days and weeks to come, eun and angie. >> it's exci-- i imagine that mandalay bay was full of people. what happens to those staying in the hotehotel? >> so the hotel was put into a lockdown mode. this is an mgm hotel, as are sifrl of them along the strip. mgm, has allowed people back into the mandalay bejo tell. some people won't have access to their rooms. other hotels have made rooms for them available so they can sleep until investigators give the all clear after they've

need to. then they'll turn it back over to the management staff here and people will be able to get back to their things. >> still a lot of long days ahead for so many. of course, we know in a situation like this, one. worst situations, we have more of the stories coming up. aaron, thank you. it's 5:36. now to our top stories stories. legendary rocker tom petty died late last night. rumors of his death circulated after he suffered cardiac arrest early monday morning. his manager confirmed that he died just after midnight our time. petty was 66 years old. >> all lanes back open on route 210 between farmington and livingston road. this is in prince george's county. it was closed for more than four hours because of a fatal crash. police say that a man was headed southbound on route 210 when he hit a guardrail. he was pronounced dead at the scene. >> the washington redskins will get a long break before their next game happening here at home. it will give them some time to recover after last night's tough loss to the kansas city chiefs.

15th versus the san francisco 49ers. new this morning, we just found out what led up to that dangerous domestic situation in prince george's county. >> as we continue to follow-up, chris lawrence now joining us from the live desk with the latest. >> angie, now we know a toddler was involved in the standoff in greenbelt. chopper 4 was over hanover parkway giving us a look at what unfolded over the ground. mario rodriguez threatened to cut her with a knife. she ran out of the house to call police and left a 3-year-old child inside. rodriguez refused to come out for hours and it wasn't until close to midnight until police got in and arrested him. the child was okay, not hurt at all. back to you. >> chris, thank you. the breach that put personal information at risk and now it's getting bigger. up next, why millions more people need to be worried about the equifax breach. >> reporter: i'm adam tuss. more bad

i'm a lawyer, and i have clients, and i am proud to do what i do on behalf of my clients. narrator: the clients john adams and his team are so proud to work for? banks accused of money laundering. big corporations accused of defrauding taxpayers. and mortgage lenders accused of unfairly foreclosing on homes. now he wants to be attorney general. john adams: the best attorney general the powerful and well-connected can buy. i'm mark herring, candidate for attorney general, and i sponsored this ad.

ralphcandidate for governor,rtham, and i sponsored this ad. they're studying for 21st century jobs. but ed gillespie supports donald trump's plan to take money out of virginia public schools and give it to private schools. as a washington dc lobbyist, ed gillespie worked for lenders trying to keep student loan rates high. and ed gillespie's plan to cut taxes for the wealthy could cut virginia school funding, too. ed doesn't stand for education.

welcome back at 5:40. protecting your personal information is even more important after that major data breach at the credit rating bureau, equifax. >> so many of you were impacted by this. we're learning that another 2.5 million people were potentially

comes to testify on capitol hill today. equifax now says a total of nearly 146 million people may have had their data compromised. wtop -- they said a measure will be considered about a freeze for free. >> a credit freeze is going to protect anyone from seeing a credit report without your permission. you have to follow the steps through equifax to make sure you can get that done. it might take a while because so many people are trying to figure out what to do to protect themselves. >> so frustrating. >> let's check in with chuck. >> a clear and cool start to your morning. no chance for rain today. 40s in the suburbs to low and mid-50s around town. grading today, a-plus. no doubt about it. what to wear for the school kids, a sheddable layer of fleece this morning. we'll be right back to short sleeves and sunglasses

it is 5:45. we're learning much more about the las vegas massacre. 59 people are dead, more than 500 are hurt. >> we have team coverage this morning. aaron gilchrist is there and so is jay gray. we want to begin with aaron. good morning. >> reporter: good morning ladies. approaching the 3:00 hour here in las vegas. 3:00 in the morning. it is quiet here now. no partying or tourists in this area of the las vegas strip just outside the mandalay bay hotel. that will be the case for several hours, possibly longer. i want to bring in my colleague jay gray also here a couple of blocks away along the strip.

originally to cover the o.j. simpson release yesterday, sunday into monday. shifted quickly to cover this story. help us understand what you saw unfolding as you moved to this area last night and what you've learned as you've gone forward into the last 24 hours. i know you've been up for a long time. >> reporter: yeah, aaron. chaos at the time of the attack. just thousands, tens of thousands of people scattering and trying to get away from what was happening here. the lobbies of many of the hotels, including the one we were staying in, turned into makeshift areas for people to hide. some of them became triage units where people were being treated for injuries. we saw people loading others into their cars or into the back of pickup trucks to rush them to hospitals. and this was a situation that continued for hours and hour after hour we

crowd just walking along the streets stunned and dazed. some looking for friends and family members that they had lost during the panic. others talking about the situation of trying to help those who were injured. talked to one young man without a shirt and he took that off to use as a triage for a wound. another couple with blood on their clothes after helping others. now, much more quiet, aaron and as we've been talking about, the investigation really beginning in earnest. >> reporter: jay gray for us here. jay and i spent some time together yesterday evening and we've seen the odd imagery that happened afterwards. jay, thank you for that. >> every time you hear about -- aaron and jay, thank you so much. every time we hear about the terrifying moments jay describes seeing the blood and everybody in panic,

and people willing to help each other. that's what gives us a little bit of light and show the humanity in the face of tragedy. >> especially in a situation described as playing a game of red light, green light in gunfire. no shortage of heroes. jay touched on a couple of -- the firefighter shot while doing cpr. stories continuing to emerge. president trump, meanwhile, will make his way to las vegas tomorrow. but first up, he's headed to pouerto rico. >> after criticism about his response, the president and the first lady will travel to san juan today. tracie potts joins us on what the president will focus on during the trip today. >> eun and angie, good morning. the president will focus on the victims and the recovery in this relief effort. it seems to be slow going. supplies on the island but not able to get across the island to the people who need it most. the president today lands on an island where it's still slow going getting

some of these roads. food and water still a problem for nearly half of the people on the island. he's expected to meet with first responders, with the military. those trying to get the supplies out. the navy and others. with the governor and with some of the victims. it's an all day trip for the president and the first lady amid tough criticism, especially from the mayor of san juan. we've heard her for the last couple of days saying her people are dying and she needs more help from washington. >> certainly going to see how that plays out. tracie potts live on capitol hill for us. tracie, thank you. that floating hospital has one of the largest trauma centers anywhere in the united states. you can watch news 4s doreen gentzler live with some reports from that incredible 900-foot ship in puerto rico right here on news 4. we're about ten minutes from the 6:00 a.m. hour and we have anlu

disturbing crime against a metrobus driver. you might remember this video here. this is a story only on news 4. >> for that, we turn things over to transportation reporter adam tuss live in chinatown with a look at what we know about a woman through urine at a driver. a disturbing story, adam. >> reporter: absolutely, disturbing story. opal brown, that woman has tested positive for pcp. not once but at least two times. this happened along the x 2 bus route which runs all across the district. who can forget the images of this woman taking that cup of her own urine and throwing it on the metrobus operator. it's something that has sparked a lot of calls to further protect metrobus operators. but now we get a little bit of a clear picture about what is going on in ms. brown's past. first of all, she missed a court appearance for last week and after the first time that she was arrested, we actually have video of when e

our pat collins was there. she was drug tested and two subsequent tests came back positive for pcp. right now, ms. brown is being held in a d.c. jail until this friday until she has another court appearance. but this just gives us another window into what may or may not have been going on in her mind at that time. of course, she says that the metrobus operator was rude to her. that's why she did it. she apologized to the bus operator after that. back to you. >> adam tuss, live in northwest washington. adam, thank you. all right. 5:51. got this warming trend here in october. >> i'm loving every single, gorgeous day we're having. i know the bottom falls out eventually. >> washington weather works. >> a lot of people love fall. but we know what's coming afterwards. you got to soak it up as long as you can. >> i do love fall. >> i like fall, too. but it's the doorway for winter. then
