waiting in long delays in orderr to catch a train while they were single tracking.ngle and then over here, towards thee front end of the station, that'a where we saw a lot of metro repair crews looking at the tracks. we believe that may be where whe that unspecified track problemem was.wa there were reports of smoke but no fire.e. passengers, again, waited for quite sometime as they single sl tracked through the area.throug morgan boulevard to stadium sdi armory, prince george's county'c fire and rescue also did brieflf respond here to the scene but se said they did not see any smoke that was required their actioncn and so they were only here for r short period of time. t everything was cleared here and back up to speed by 7:30 this0 s morning.rnin you mentioned of course theourst trouble yesterday on the red line. friendship heights that onene metro did say was a smoking smog insulator that set off quite a haze in the underground station at friend ship heights.end sh metro again saying arcingg insulator in that one..

problem that quickly.oble friendship heights was evacuates the at one point but that washaw short lived, and then, yeah, plenty of and panic on saturdaya when passengers aboard the red line train heard what they w the thought were explosions.xplo we saw that video chaos andnd panic in the dark.k. people not knowing what washa going on.g feeling that really there wasn't a lot of communication there.. we found out later what metro m said happened there was that a part of one of the cars felll off, a large metal peace hit the third rail that's what causeds w the loud boom.oo the smoke and then the fire. thr those passengers were able to it that case the train was able toe back up get to the tenleyen station let those passengersthps off. but this is part of what general manager paul wiedefeld testifiei to congress was as he said systemic problems he discoveredd when he came on board systemicmc problems with power, with track and with car maintenance i thini these things are just sort of so all coming to a head at this point. we b

something from him later today after the board meeting thistint morning where they're going totn talk about number of issues.ssu. wiedefeld is holding a press pss conference he's going to take te all kinds of questions from the media and we sure there will beb lots of them.lots of them back to you.yo >> i'm sure there will be, too., thanks for that. >> melanie mentioned metro boaro is meeting this morning generalr manager paul wiedefeld will bee at that meeting and answers thes bore questions.bore we went public with numerous n requests we have made to metro o to have the general manager comm on our morning show to addresswd your questions and concerns directly those requests were tho repeated dell cleaned.le metro is make the generalthe n manager available after today'sa board meeting as melanie said td answer reporters questions.stio we'll there be we'll have crew and get as many answers as we can. also in the news this morningthr overnight barricade finally ovey to the relief of neighbors whobs were forced to evacuate their t homes during it. it happened on the east reidas vote in alexandria and lastedas about nine hours. fox5's annie yu was there when w it ended. end she joins us now live with whata happened. you were there for almost all o it annie

how did it all play out? all plt >> reporter: well, it was a long night for law enforcement e and residents out here and wend were waiting around to see how s this unfolded.d. around 7:00 o'clock they didy make entry into the home and hoe found no one inside. iid i can tell that you east reid er avenue partially reopened butlyr there is still some policeic activity out here traffic beingi diverted on to wilson avenue bub straight ahead closer to wherese all of this went down it isown i still blocked off as the investigation continues.onnu but yeah, i mean it was quite ae night for the residents outesens here. there were police units, theici, swat team, hostage negotiatingea teams out here all along the alt roadway. even some cloud booms ass authorities used tactical movesv to gain epp tree into the home.m so around 7:00 we discoveredisco that they did get inside. ins no one was in there.as in there we have video of the scene.ne the barricade unfolded lastded s night around 10:00 o'clock when alexandria police got call for r shooting. it was an incident betweeniden t family members one man shot at another adult male relative rele outside the home.e th there were no injuries injurie thankfully and the victim is ths one who called forel

now, officials told us that the shooter were told rather that r the shooter was inside and soe s that is why the intense responss ensued because police just don'd know what they're dealing withtr at that point and what type ofte weapon the person might have, mv and so after hours of police pic trying to make contact with whow they thought was and side, theye were finally able to get in there and found nobody out --ut nobody inside. so they know who they are t looking for obviously.bvio the relative was able to passo p along the name and so the the investigation continues. but there's a lot of questionsoo still lingering.lingering we don't know at this point p exactly when the suspect wasusct able to get away presumabl presy is a to say once that 911 call c was placed innocent suspect s lives at this home.lives at thi those are questions that ws e still have police looking forkir that suspect at this time. tim that's the very latest here in alexandria.alexan back to you in the studio.u in u >> annie, thank you., than you >> also happening today, policep are still searching for a prince william county woman whoom vanished more than a week ago. . yesterday they released ay reled surveillance video some footage from the cvs in woodbridge where

i think that it is a genuineenue partnership. i actually think it is a sincern selection. they have been on the trailbeen together for the past seven weeks.week they have similar political polc philosophies, and i think she is passionate about the cause. cau. i think she is passionate abouta keeping donald trump out of thee white house and she feels this i is the way to help make thatakea happen.en now, i'm not in carly's head but just based on watching thisin t whole thing play out it does d seem like a -- while it'sle certainly attempt to go to be a strategic move i think there'ste sincerity behind it. >> this whole cruz kasichcruzas alliance is that still alive ore one time thing and it didn't it' work. let's abandon that.ndon that. >> the interesting thing aboutet it i almost feel like theyl t announced it too soon. toooo >> it wasn't even for this pastp tuesday, though.hough. >> exactly. it was for this past tuesday. t so then everyone seeshi how poop both of them did this past tuesday, and they say, well, the alliance didn't work. w it wasn't supposed to work yet.t supposed to work in the first upcoming -- first race they sait it would be for is in indiana id an

oregon so the idea is cruz takes indiana, new members cone oregor kasich could take but new mexicx and oregon delegates are about t the same total as indiana iia delegates and they say okay keek those delegates away from donalo trump then he'll be further from that number he needs to win out right and we could get to g to contested convention.ve >> i want to go back to carly cy fee or lena for just a second. s ted cruz picking her. is this perhaps a ploy to redirect the conversation because it seems to me wheneverv we talk about donald trump goodp or bad that's when he seems tomo surge. is this some sort of plot to pt change the direction change thee conversation and put ted cruz td back in the -- in the limelightm back in the front of the news. >> absolutely.bsolely yesterday you may recall donalde trump made a foreignc policy speech in washington d.c..c. that no one is talking about. so it's very -- stole the newss cycle. cycl donald trump is usually the oneh you know, stealing that news tt cycle, and ted cruz did that yesterday.yest >> how long will this last. >>

my question is on the biggern ih stage that is the republicanli party right now we talk about the reason ted cruz is doings this to still obviously have auy chance when it comes toance whet convention time. the republican party itself,el what does it think about thehibt alliance, this partnering up,p, picking a vice-presidential ru running mate while you're so fae behind in the polls w? >> i don't know. i don't know. the whole thing i think has really made the republican party, you know, think about who they are, what is the gop? op? people say if donald trump winsp the nomination, that it willt fracture the republican partyhei forever.reve then there are establishmentstah republicans like chris christiec who endorse donald trump.mp so when we're in the middle of o this very unusual time, i thinki it is really difficult to know o what this is going to do to thet party and how the party willtyil truly react and also depends ons whether or not we have ae president trump one day.ne d right? and then we have to see, you know, does he revert back tt some of what people say are thee liberal ideas that he previously had? does he really foll

promises that he's made? thise is one of these -- those thingst where we will have to look backo at history to really determine t does this do the damage thatage some republicans are saying itin will do to the party? or is or this an opportunity for thetunir republicans to take back the bk white house and, you know, haveh new leadership that clearly voters millions and millions of voters are excited about? >> how much you don't know, i kw don't think republicans knowpub either. >> exactly.. >> previously said the numberso are the numbers. they won't have 93 drama. there's not going to be any drama. if you get the number you're the nominee. >> if he gets the number. >> unfortunately had to headd trump's losing out.ut >> quickly with that, they'ret,e saying what if he's 50 points p below the number?w the numbe >> that's where you say, i don' know what they're going to do. >> more drama?>> m >> yes. >> what? >> the op thing were dough no there will be more drama.e d >> weep leave it at that. at th. time now 9:21.1. tucker left the safety of they weath c

311 about, it would probablyy have to do with potholes and streets and alleys and treesan s that the things that affect thih their day to day live in concentrated areas of stat. people are wanting to make sures that we have the right amount of police protection. they are wanting to make sure we're making the invest maniesie at schools. and the things that effect theic day to day live. >> that's combine a couplene a e those. police protection and schoolsio and throw metro n unfortunately we've hn uneard of recent crimen metro involving youth in the yoh district. district weevil heard of crimes involving youth at schools. schools near schools.chls we've had school scheduleschul changed to try to avoid altercations between people in e the district.enthst what is your take right now onow the status of schools in thels t city and trying to make sure ate least we keep that safe learninn environment for insurance?nsce >> i will tell you, we're verytu encouraged about the directionir our schools are moving in for fr many years we've seen increasene in our school population alongna with our city's population. our children are doing better ir terms of how they are -- their e graat

how their testing.thei but we know that we have stillai we're pushing hard to make sures they're doing even better. bet in terms of safety, we put thatt number one on the list as well. we expect the best -- the bestes behavior from our kids, but we t know that they need adults around, and we have policee polc protection in our schools and a we've called for a step up in i the presence of police around metro stations for safe passage for kids.r kids. >> when we look at trends whens it comes to crime in the citycrt and you can go back years andnd find everything fromg f unemployment to drugs to territorial disputes whatever it is that you want to do, youo,ou havely now we tie in apparentlyy the dissolving of the did.the d c trust i don't know if you wanf to address that as well whichelw was supposed to help to disadvantaged youths and aftersa school programs and that type oo thing, what do we see now as basis what's going on with crimc in the city right now? is it neighbor beefs? is it someth

else that's going on? that' >> i think what's important wet' can go to parts of our city ourt where we have the lowest levelsv of crime that we've ever seen. s and then we can go to concentrated areas where we see spikes at troubling spikes and violent crime.olent cri use of guns, especially. and so the way we have hav structured our approach is toprs concentrate in the areas that tt need it the most.os with additional police presencee and protection.tect but also the human services programs. the jobs programs, preventionreo programs that target our youth.u and so that's where we have ouro all of our energy.. i moved safer stronger package c to the council that includes everything from mini grants to t support neighborhoods that need it the most. m and so we're going to keep toee pushing on those things. tng and make sure people have h opportunities outside of class.a >> it's certainly needed outlyeo there to keep everybody safe.dy >> yup. >> if you're safe, h you're saf at home hopefully you can carryr that with when you you're goingg to school oh on the metro.heet you got it.. >> let's look at the future reat quick. rfk stadium right now.ight now

>> big changes coming. c we had the ground-breaking ofbrg course for d.c. united we sure e did. >> new stadium which will be icl was m gout to figure oh it whatt to do with the old one and thata land. what's the plan?wh we have the opportunity ata wizard appointment southwest to start the construction of ourono soccer stadium and we're verye'v excited about that.exci we did that in a week where wehe had tremendous week for washington baseball.ebal we had a tremendous week for washington also hockey.y. and so you can see that d.c. is really a sports capital and soad we're excited about everything g that's going on in sports in washington.washin so what our role is with rfkfk stadium when our soccer team isi out, we will have a vacantacant stadium an lot of vacant landd and so events d.c. has been hase working on this for the last las couple of years. yea they have put out severaleveral iteration of what could happen on the campus.on t cam so my job as mayor is to make mk sure that we're ready to go to come 2019.come 2019. >> we talk about base you will b he talk about soccer.k t soccer. talk about hockey.lk a we did not talk about aut wa

>> back now 9:45.>>k no d.c. mayor muriel bowser is wits us this morning. mor. we've been asking to you wet you questions for us all morningus r with the #gooddaydc.dayd we got a bunch of them. t let's see what's on people'ss minds. all right. mayor, the first one deals witht reforming helping reform felonsl he asked, mayor, what can we do to help felons with criminalhrii backgrounds that changed buts ta it's hard to get back to work. k what can you do to help the the number one program we have in we our city puts to you work forouk six months then you're back toh where you started.starte >> um-hmm.m-hm that's great question. queio actually it's apropos re-entry week and important question fort us in the district.stct we've been focused how we gete people into the middle class ans one population that needs a lota of help from the district is people who deserve a second aec chance and so that's where we're focused.cu one thing i announced in my i state of the district was a way for us to bring back all of the

control which we think will helh us bring people who are servingi time all over our country backnb to d.c. earlier, getting in ourr work force training programs earlier, and that's going help l them reintegrate into work as as well as with their families.. so that's important.mpta so we call on partnerships withw all employers and we've cup as p lot in our city to band the boxx and actually require employerslo to interview people and make conditional offers before theyet can use a background toun eliminate somebody fromod employment.empl >> speaking of all over theof ae country, i'm going para phrasehr number of tweets we got from f possible right now. all over the country people havt voting rights.voting >> you got it.>> you g i >> d.c. we are still trying to get there. get ther >> you got it. youot >> when it comes to it.. a lot of people wondering this g statehood situation.ehood s >> yup.it >> where are we? what are we do to try to fight for this. f thi >> sure. i've called on i used emancipation day breakfast as

launching pointer for a call fol new vote on statehood in thetehd district of columbia to be on b the ballot in november.be what we have come to this pointp now with almost 700,000 people living here was out of vote inot the congress at all.. so our congresswoman doesn't doe vote in the house. we do not have two senators.enor and so we want d.c. residents rn like other states who have beenn admitted to the union to affirmr they want statehood, to draw thh boundaries for the new state, keeping a federal district buttr the balance of the city would w become the 51 is the state.hetae we want to put that on the thatn ballot. ball the reason why it's important i now is because we're going to gg have new president and we'rere going to have a new congress.es and we want for the first timeit for the new president and newnd congress to have buttoned upned already in package ready to deliver a petition in january jn the needs and wants and desiresd of americans that pay more perer capita in taxes than any state.a more taxes than 20 states and a

states and we know in the next n 20 years we'll be over millionon people.peop. so it is not the american way to have residents of the capital city not have a vote in the congress.re >> question number two from tpom johnson he tweeted us this. us . will you be putting security sur cameras in classrooms and added more guards and offering offerig mediation counseling and there'i a part two t ao this question ii regards to school violence, whaw is the likelihood of using dc protective services police toice help with school security whichh would help more d.c. police d officers on the streets around n the school for safe passage?assa >> well, we have lot of officerc in all of our, you know n all of our schools middle and up.. and when we have some ideasas around, say, passage around aun metro especially, and we want tn see an increased presence a police presence around metroro stations.. so police officers, our police,c metro police, but we actually al think that the metro effort cosc be

calling special security officers, and we agree.e a we want to work with metro toet see how we increase that presence on platforms and also on trains. trains. it should be knowed, however n v you don't go on metro property e without being recor recorded. as soon as you pop on enter inti a metro station or on metro bust you are being recorded.ecord that's why we see such quickck turn around when there aretherea crimes on metro because we knowo who is doing the crime.ri having cameras does up deed enhance our police force. force but we want people to know thata for kids, for everybody, that ta the behavior and criminalrimi activity will not be toleratedol in our systems. our sms >> good thing you brought uproht metro because as you can imagina we got a lot of twitter ttt questions about the state ofe of metro regarding you, in fact inf self people brought up the fact that you appoint some boardrd members and actually sat on thee board yourself for while.. so the

were on the board for while,hi what were you doing back then? ? and how did we get to the state that we're in now? >> well, metro has been aroundrn for 40 years. yea i wasn't on the board for 40oard years. (laughter). >> i'll tell that you.t you. but certainly i think that we'va learn a lot even in the timee since i've been on the board tha about metro's finances thatha always got clean audits yet wesy found out that there were ae w shell game going on with the finances. i think we've also learned morer about the inability to get out the dollars that fix the system. but i think more importantly wew figure that we need not only a transit expert but we need we somebody who can turn around a very large bureaucracy.ucracy so i won't sugar coat the issuee at metro, and i don't think wehi can say the board governance or this one thing. thi i think it's 40 years worth that chronicled recently of thingshi that could have happenedave hape
