talkier county and showers approaching and gainesville, fairfax, restin, could be starting to see the signs of light rain and sprinkles for the most part, though. around the northeast we have a very gray, wet, weather pattern. after today we're looking at a colder wet weather pattern and you'll want the heavy jacket and the umbrella. i'll show you how cool we're talking coming up. >> all right. thank you, sheena. we're getting more information about a developing story that left one man injured and a police officer on paid leave. >> montgomery county police say one of their own opened fire. the officer-involved shooting happened in a parking lot of a busy shopping area in wheaton sunday night. news 4's justin finch is following the latest. >> reporter: and what a scene this must have been. many of the stores in this plaza were still open when all of this happened. a man in this parking lot calling police to say that an suv was ramming his car from behind and here on scene rig

about here, police did find a white suv almost right on the bumper of this man's toyota sedan here. you'll also see in the video the driver's side window of the suv almost totally blown out. this happened about 8:20 or so sunday night at the stoney mill square shopping plaza off of beers mill and randolph road. this man called police to say that his car was being rammed and when a officer did arrive shortly thereafter and police tell us what happened next. when he arrived just a few seconds later he got back on the radio and stated that there was one shot. so we're investigating. one of our officers discharging his weapon and striking the driver apparently of the white suv. >> the officer and the man who called police were not injured in this case. the man who was shot though was taken to the hospital in serious condition, police do want to

here to get a sense of what happened. they're also looking to the officer's body-worn camera to shed more light on what happened here when that officer arrived. as for the officer, he is now on leave. we are told that he's a ten-year veteran of the force. in wheaton, i'm justin finch. news 4. right now a teenage girl has gone missing again, just a month after she was abducted and then found. this is sanahi aguilar cruz and she's 16 years old. police said she left home in woodbridge saturday night and hasn't been seen since. if you happen to see her, please contact police immediately. he's accused of carrying out one of the most notorious murders in recent memory and he is back in court in d.c. darren wynn is taking part in a d.c. mansion murder. he accused

with prime spaces, it can cost as much as $5.50 per hour to take a space. pierre jimenez commutes from woodbridge to the city. >> i think it's outrageous. number one, which is why i never drive into d.c. it's just crazy and i prefer to do public transportation and metro, and whatever. it's just so much easier. >> many in the area opt for uber or lyft because of the parking situation. ddot says changing rates will encourage more people to leave spaces in a timely manner and that will free up spots for others who are willing to pay. >> do you think it's too expensive as it is? i know it's not cheap. >> there is a chance you can actually pay less because some spaces will drop to just a dollar per hour at times. again, it's all based on when and where you park so make sure you're reading the sign clearly. >> isn't that a joy to make sure

signs hereio you can bet, if it works e dot will stay with you. >> $11 to park two hours on the street? >> like the gentleman said you can't drive into the city. you have to take uber or mass transit. you know what? the price of parking is not the only thing going up. gas prices on the rise, as well. so we will have a look at what is driving up the cost. and we have a lot more on election day now just less than 24 hours away. we'll run down what you need

nbc news joins us with the national implications of this particular race. good morning, mark. >> good morning. >> thanks for being here. vurj virj, one of two states, new jersey, the other electing a new governor this year. some have been saying this is a referendum on president trump. with the latest poll numbers out, where do you see this standing with voters? >> i see number one, the horse races that ralph northam, the lead, but not insurmountable where ed gillespie can catch up and donald trump ended up winning the residency, but ralph north northam is your slight favorite. to me, this is a race with the national environment where things should be really bad for republicans. we see president trump's approval rating in the high 30s. we see the fact that if you control the white house you normally do very poorly in this virginia governor's race and the tactics on ed gi

and the hard-hitting ads -- >> correct, the question to me is what matters more? the environment which is really rough for republicans or the tactics that you can give in the republican column and the force that plays out and it's a bigger factor. we'll tell you who wins tomorrow. >> these are two mild-mannered guys and yet the race is nasty. we are seeing your first sanctuary city. it's gotten brutal. >> the debate moderated by chuck todd and the next day you start seeing the ms-13 ads and it's been rough-and-tumble from both sides and that's how politics is right now, but to me it's ironic how national the stakes are in this race were given that we're talking about the governor's race and virginia which is so close to the white house does have more

>> for democrats or drepublican. >> the democrats feel they need to win to say the resistance is on our side. if they come up short that will be a bad side for them and the stakes are higher for the democrats going into the race tomorrow. >> it all comes down to voter turnout. what are you hearing about what we expect? >> what we expect is the turnout is going to be very high which should benefit democrats. when they didn't perform that well in 2014 when mark warner barely ended up gaining reelection and what we see from early indications and the early vote so far as well the canvassing, and we soften 2016 and the democrats had the edge, too. we'll see if that enthusiasm does play out for democrats this time. >> thank you very much. mark, thanks for joining us. we'll look for your reporting starting pretty early in the morning. >> stay with us, news 4

attended this church and we know that he had made threatening texts from him and we can't go into details about that domestic situation that is continuing to be vetted and thoroughly investigated, but we want to get that out there that this was not racially motivate. it wasn't over religious beliefs. there was a domestic situation going on within the family and the in-laws and that's the wilson county district attorney ab aubrey lewis who would like to say something. >> good morning. we've learned this morning just how smalltown america truly is. we've had a tremendous outpouring across the country for people wanting to assist our families in need and i want to make sure how everyone can help and you can help by

to it, then he drove across to the church and that's when he exited the vehicle and started the shooting. he was wearing a ballistic vest with a plate on the front. there was no plate on the back, but he was wearinging a ballistic vest. [ inaudible question ] a ballis vest. [ inaudible question ] >> at this time i cannot. we know he expressed anger towards his mother-in-law who attends this church. [ inaudible question ] >> we don't. [ inaudible question ] you've been watching our breaking news coverage of the mass shooting there in texas with a live news conference by some of the investigators. i think the thing that jumped out to me was the fact that we learned that devin kelley allegedly sent threatening text messages to his mother-in-law and the mother-in- a

there. >> yeah. this is the most information i think we've been able to gather about a possible motive here, the threatening text messages sent to his mother-in-law. we do know that this man was kicked out of the air force for an assault charge against his estranged wife and child and served time, as well, in a court-martial proceeding there, and we heard the public safety official as well rule out racial, religious motivation and pointing in and zeroing in on the domestic-related tie here. >> all of this is very preliminary and very early so i don't want to jump into any conclusion and it appears that's the road they're going down in the investigation. we'll keep an eye on that news conference and we want to get you up-to-date on other stories. paul manafort will remain under house arrest after a

>> where is the stress-producing stuff taking place? >> snapchat, i would say. it's mostly on snapchat. you never know. you can send something out and someone else will post it on their story and they will just they'll be talking bad about you. >> school work and social media can cause stress and other things you might not expect. we'll hear more from these students tonight at 6:00 p.m. >> wow. tomorrow doreen will sit down with the parents to talk about what they can do to help their teenagers to help them cope with the serious problems. >> it's a very important conversation and discussion to have, but in the meantime we need to get ready for more rain and much cooler temperatures out there. >> it's november. it's about that time. >> it is time. we'll take a look when highs -- highs will hit the 40
