resolution. they have agreed to keep the settlement confidential. doctor do you has become the unintended championor the adoption of chaijs will certainly improve the lives of literally thousands of changes. the backlash over the way the situation was handled lead united executives to announce a series of changes to ensure the travelling public that the incident would never happen again. united putting forth a tote l afl ten new steps the company will start using immediately including limiting the use of law enforcement to safety and security issues only establishing a customer solutions tell. to provide agents with creative solutions. assuring that crews will be booked on a flight at least one hour prior to departure reducing the amount of over booking and increasing customer compensation incentive for giving up a seat, up to $1000

united move but caution the latest series of events points to a bigger issue. right now customers have very few choices part of the reason we're in this situation is because there's no slack in the system. there aren't any open seats on your flight or on the next couple of flights coming up. so if you have to get bumped, then what's your course in doctor dow's settlement also releases the city of chicago of liability since united is taking full responsibility. southwest airlines also announced they will no longer be over booking their flights and plan to implement the new policy in may a ingle, fox news. >> as united tries to make amends, dealt a airlines dealing with a headache of their own. asking a passenger to get off the plane because he usedded the bathroom right before take off. a flight attendant told him

anchored to that desk. >> a beautiful picture there. we do have some showers. we saw them earlier back out to the rest of us crossing over the mountains. i want you to see what happens here. look at this as it kind of comes from west to east. notice how much lighter it gets, coverage adds intensity, but back to the west there's another little l broken line coming into morgantown west virginia this could hold to the mountains. once it comes across the mountains it will probably lose a lot of its cyst l. a loft this is ground cover. back up here through montgomery county is all ground cover. basically to the west of i95 that's mostly ground clutter. where we're seeing the showers, coming down baltimore, into the city we have a pretty good shower coming in here. it's coming in west to east. this is about all we have now. i don't think we're going to get much more. with that second line i just showed you that could com

bring us a stray shower. there is a chance, i think there's enough instability around tonight that we could have a thund tomorrow or two, but not probably. that's the way it is i pulled out a loft the ground clutter here so you get a better idea of some light rain as this comes down through montgomery county, crosses over college park, northern sections of d.c. and then down through the city tsm it's very, very light. reagan national 83, bwi was 80. right now it's 74-degrees. still very mild across the úentire area. saturday is who the. we'll have a hour, maybe a thunderstorm. upper 80s, low nine 0s. sunday is still tricky because where is this front going to be north of the front in the 80s. the front is going to end up on top of us. it's going to depend on where you are in the area on sunday which is going to mean whether you'll be in the 830s or whether you'll be in the 70s. and here in the

think we'll be in the upper 70s there will be a few showers. everybody will be who the hot on saturday, a high of 91. maybe a few showers coming through. eighty-four tomorrow. early clouds, some fog, a sunny afternoon. winds will become south, southeast at about five to ten mimes per hour. threes the seven day forecast for you. much cooler on sunday than saturday. a storm can come our way next week with on very wet weather. >> much has been made over the fact that the capitols are one and eight over the penguins. the capitols are eight and one including last year's six-game series loss to the pens, the caps won the first game. it's history that maybe the caps would like to avoid. let's move objection to the form no core heading into the second period, but that quickly changed in the first. sidney

just 12 seconds in the second and then added another goal just 42 seconds like that. just like that the penguins up. alex ovechkin, the caps down two-one after 40 minutes. then with one minutes to go, former pen gaining control, he spins n wide open net, brand new game. they're tied up two all. just about seven minutes left in the game, the pens go up the left side, in front to what mean oh beats hole pee with the game winner. the caps lose game one, three-t of two. brody logan live from verizon center. i know of before the game fans were really pumped for this game. they were. they were optimistic about this game and about this series in spite of the history where the penguins have won ate of nine meetings in the playoffs. what we saw on

the ice here today is kind of what you saw in the first series against the mable leaves. the caps went down two-zero and then it put them into gear and it seemed a little lackadaisical. and then they came back. but no hero iks tonight. and that's kind of the problem. you can do that against a young team like the maple leaves. you can't play like that, play from behind against the tanly cup champions obviously we don't shoot the puk in the first period almost, like we have maybe four, three shots we can't play like that against this team. they're an experienced team, lots of talent. i thought we played strong. just i thought the first and third goals were capable of

topping. >> you heard them there, braden hol pee put this on himself. he said those two goals the difference in this game. he hewed have been able to top them, but it was also thrush that the penguins put on, two goals like he said within 45 seconds of each other in the second period. i canned eugene i cas nets off what he thought of the slow start and he said it was zero, zero into the first. he felt good. all the players seemed confident. they all think, going in, this is against the penguins, it's going to be a seven-game sear eessments lose game one, maybe not so bad. maybe the tied will turn. >> it just gets these fans every time. >> right. >> a lot of frustration in the news room tonight. >> yes, there is. >> thanks, brody. i was mentioning to tony before, of course nfl, the redskins

ash ford out of alabama. >> what did you think about the pick and your reaction was. >> i think that's a very good pick. it's a guy who grew up a redskins fan. i like it. >> stone bridge high school. >> good stuff. let me tell you what's coming up on the news at 11. we have a lot going on. first of all, a principal in our area is giving teachers a baseball bat and letting them loose on school furniture. this a form of stress relief. it's not. we're going to head out live for the latest on this so scawld smash space. >> an ohio man goes to court to fight a traffic ticket, but ends up arrested on felony drug charges. he made a mistake in the courtroom and it was caught on tape. that story and more on fox5 local news at 11. we'll see you in a few. amazon. bomb, the online giant amazon making a lot more money
