. shortly after police took him into custody, investigators were inaurel at ramos' home where they found more evidence. in court today the prosecutor told the judge ramos had a plan to kill as many people as possible and that he snuck into the rear of the billing through a hlway and apparently blocked the rear exit so his victims would have no way to escape once he opened fire. >> there was a number of victims. there was one victim tha had attempted to escape through the back door and was shot at that point. >> reporter: an employee who survived the attack told nbc news he also tried to run out that back door. >> one of myco eagues, she also ran toward the door. she was the one who actually jingled the handle. that door is normally never locked from the inside out. we have no problems getting out of that door. for whateve reason it was jammed. as soon as that happened, that signaled to me okay, this is tentional, those are shots and we immediately ran and got under the -- one of the desks in the

far back corner of the office and we just huddled as close as we could to each other and tried to stayut of sight of whoever it was. >> reporter: ramos who appeare at the bail hearing via videoconferencing did not speak. the judge ordered him held without bond saying ramos was most likely a danger to the public. as for what's nex legally for ramos, he'll remain in custody until his next court date. that could either be a preliminary hearior a trial or it could be a hearing because the prosecutors will go before a grand jury and seek an atdictment. that's the veryt out here in laurel. back to you. >> mark segraves reporting. shank you, mark. our n 4 i-team has been digging in to what led up to the shooting, why the suspect was upset with the newspaper and why the staff tried to keep something like this from happening.ei jodie her is in our newsroom with what she learned. >> i spoke at length with the retired editor of the capital

our other big story, the weather. a heat wave on the horizon. g >> people try to keep cool as they wait to see tiger woods at s golf tournament. wait until tomorrow. tomorrow we're going t miss

today's heat. >> tell me about it. we definitely are. i mean, right i nows 91. so if i'm saying that, you only imagine what tomorrow is bringing. it's not just us feeling the heat, folks. if you are traveling for the 4th of july, there's really nowhere all the way down to the southeast, we will be seeing the orrow. here's four things to know over the next couple of days. we don't have any weekend rain, but it is going to be feeling like 100 degrees on saturday. 105 on sunday. we are looking at those 4th of july stormchances. i'll have a look at that as well as your beach forecast coming up in just a moment. >> we issue deeply saddened by what happened today. >> all i knew is there was an active shooter and that we should stay in our office and barrica barricade ourselves in, so we locked ouroors and we all kind of hid. on this day after a community still trying to

damprehend what happened to five journalists yest "the capital gazette" in annapolis. >> police say the suspect had an axe to grind w the paper and it's putting a new spotlight on the president's attacks on the media. >> the president changed his rhetoric today. from to the difference earlier this week and then today. >> you know we have a lotf ke news back there. >> journalistsike all americans should be free from the fear of being violently attack while doing their job. >> major chang in tone there clearly, but the question is will there be any lo-term chan in the president's irategy after this tragedy. let's bring nbc news political director and mod tator of "mee press" chuck todd. this one is especially painful for people in our community and those of us who work in the

media. do you think this has any effect at all on the president's attacks on the media? >> everybo [inaudible] >> there's a social media permission slip out there. there is -- [inaudible] saying you w knowt? i'm tough on those guys. it's all in fun or this or that. that's what he tells me one-on-one. when you tell him, hey, you know what, this doesn't help when you do this. a bunch of us have h

conversations with candidate trump about hey, when you single out an individual, you increase the threat levels to them. they may be threats that are not aserious as they look, but that's what happens when you do it. it's not meant to be anything. i took him at his word that it's not meant to be. is is the larger conversation. somebody's got to heal this toxic divide that we're in. maybe the president is not thee bestn right now considering he participates in some of this. maybe this is a lesn for him. maybe he is someone who will then take the next step. >> you may have seen this is the 154th mass shooting this year alone. how many timesave weaid not again. time, is ask is this this the turning point. what could make a difference, the voters or our leaders. >> i don't know. he bought the gun legally which always seems to be he got it legally. this guy had a trare rd. he was threatening people.

in fact, the reason why he had a beef with the paper is it was reported o his stalking harassment where he was charged with a misdemeanorelp ironically none of that shows up on a background check. this is perhaps the conversation lawmakers need to have. had it been domestic violence violence he had gotten the misdemeanor, according to pete williams, it would have made it into the system and maybe he doesn't buy the gun. i guess you could loo t ats this guy clearly has mental problems. trigger happy on this whatever it is that set him off. but he clearly was identified as somebody who was problematic, the authorities were involved. and yet oi ur system makes where a guy like that who has been identified by the community as troubled has no problem getting a gun. >> and none of that triggered the exisng system. you've got to ask yourself the existing system doesn't work. >> thispo etes by the midterms?

>> i think parkland shows the issue, those parkland issues did a good job of keeping the issue where it stays on a lower simmer wherein w politics go from oh my god, now it's kennedy and now it's this. i'm seeing gunstay in the top five of the issues, stay in double digits of concern even as we in the national media don't cover it front and center on a given week as we hadleor a w at parkland. i think there is a growing amount of people that have concerns about it on the left now. not quite equaling the concerns about tougher laws on the right, but you're seeing a movement nonetheless. >>ut enough concern so that it can bring them out to vote? who knows what the votg issue is. that's always been the case on the left. same conversation we could have about supreme court justices. conservatives are voting issues for conservatives. progressives clearly don't, they talk a big game, but they have yet to translate it into a voting issue. >> all right. coming up >> sunday we're going to be

doing this. we're going to be doing the sort of shell shoed democrats. they seem to be leaderless all of a sudden. then we've got the meeting with russia, lindsey graham, maria cantwell, discuss all of that and thenst some. place to start your 1st day of july. >> comen overe'll have fire works during the entire hour. >> you must say so yourself. there youo. i'll provide the spark. >> good to have you with us as always.
