actually video evidence, video of lieutenant collins being attacked back on may 20th. but so far prosecutors haven't been able to determine if collins was attacked because of his race. but they're not done investigating and are still searching digital devices from the alleged killer trying to make that determination.etermin. says the alleged killer, sean urbanski was a member of a racist group on facebook. the state's attorney made it clear today that her work is not done as she tries to find out if hate was a motive. >> developing a motive is always a challenging aspect of a case and in this case and in every other case you can't get it wrong. it is, we believe the best that we can do to make sure that we are thorough. the most difficult part of any investigation is der

depends on who you ask and montgomery county states attorney says yes. >> john mccarthy shared his mounting frustrations with us here on fox5 this morning. >> under federal criteria right now if i said i was a member of ms-13, i admitted i was a member of ms-13, that is not sufficient under most criteria to certify you and put you into the database as a member of ms-13 even though you've told me you were a member of ms-13. we need a new statute to make it easier for us to target the leadership in these gangs. >> this is no doubt a nationwide problem. fox5's tisha lewis is here with more on the story. >> hi, jim, sarah. mccarthy did point out montgomery county has jumped from less than one gang related homicide to 18 in the last two years. a spike that's hard to ignore yet prosecutors say their hands are tied when it comes to convicted gang members thanks to complicated crit criteria. for example, for police and validating a gang member is

but two or more of the criteria listed here including self admission a reliable source says that that person, confirms that that person is in the gang, also a source of unproven liability says that that person is in the gang according to montgomery county. now, also gang tattoos or gang attire. now, for prosecutors much more is needed to successfully prosecute a crime as being gang related and mccarthy says the criteria is not uniform. now, we interviewed the county's positive youth development administrator who was once a former gang member and he insists rehabilitation is the solution. >> i've been doing this for 25 years now and obviously i have my previous personal street experience is that it's all rooted in the weakness or the fragility that occurs in the home. not blaming the parents per se but when you have these complexities going on

and when the society as a community or even systematically we're not working together to help strengthen families the end result is that we'll see more young people gravitate towards gangs. we need to be able to provide them a better deal. obviously it starts at home and what we can do to make sure that young feeble are nurtured, loved, they feel acknowledged, accepted, hopefully strengthen their weaknesses shortcomings as well as blessings and figure out a way to support that. >> reporter: county administrator and former gang member luis cardona says the focus should be on strengthening families over punishment. even show the county states attorney wants laws changed to help prosecute gang leaders for ordering crimes even if the leader himself does not commit the crime. even police are saying the laws have vague after an arrest is made. >> it can be frustrating. that's why we rely on our partnerships with our local prosec

partners and especially our residents who provide us information or we can learn more details and bring a stronger case. sometimes some of those guidelines and laws are vaguely written and that leads to multiple or wide interpretation of those laws. >> reporter: now, by many accounts the solution new federal and state statutes targeting gang leadership, more resources and tools to track gangs on social media. also, police say families churches and schools working together to identify gang activity can help stop it in its tracks. tisha lewis, fox5 local news. >> ♪ >> there is new video that shows persons of interest in a shooting in southeast earlier this week that sent a one-year-old to the hospital. this is the video. by the way, this happened on monday the 1300 block of i street. police are still looking for the gunman involved. the one-year-old has since been released from the hospital. >> a district teenager charged in a hit

healthcare 2.0 you could call it is out now. you'll remember this is another attempt after 10 republicans abandoned ship on the last version in the dog days of june. this time out they are hopeful to at least turn eight of them, if they can get eight republican nos turn into yeses, then they'll have a chance to actually repeal and replace obamacare but take a look at this. this was a wild scene up here today in senate offices as democratic protesters who do not want obamacare repealed and replaced, well, they took to the hallways and set up shop outside of the majority leader mitch mcconnell's office today and as we have seen in recent weeks, as this kind of thing has gone on, once again, u.s. capitol police have had to move in and make arrests. so, what is different about this bill from the other bill? well, for example, this time they've added in about 45 million -- billion make that dollars in opioid prevention

they have also added to a tax fund for people on low incomes. they sweetened the pot in certain areas to get nos to become yeses like one of them senator ted cruz calling this the cruz amendment. they'll allow some insurers to celo cost skimpier problems. republicans are saying this is a much better version of their healthcare bill. democrats, though, countered very quickly saying this is even meaner than the previous versions. >> the revised draft improves on the previous version in a number of ways all while retaining the fundamental goals of providing stability and improving affordability. >> from what we're seeing, the new republican trump care bill is every bit as mean as the old one and in one big way, it's even meaner with the addition of something like the cruz amendment. >> now f-over on

they'll help to keep most of the temperatures up just a little bit. so, here's what we're thinking tomorrow. 83 degrees. there could be a thunderstorm tomorrow morning but again like this morning where there was a chance for it, doesn't look like a great chance, 83 degrees so we'll start out warm and we're going to heat up quickly. 92 by lunchtime and 93 at 5 o'clock. you can see the temperatures tomorrow, perhaps a shade cooler than today but still a lot of 90's out there and let me just so show you real quickly here, we do have a chance for some pretty strong thunderstorms tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow evening. these will need to be watched because technically speaking for tomorrow we're under a slight risk of severe thunderstorms. we'll watch primary threat from those will be some wind coming out of those thunderstorms. we'll cool off a little bit for the weekend, no the so humid. next week it looks like we'll surge towards the middle 90's towards the middle part of the week. back over to sim jim and sarah. >> breaking news out of pennsylvania and this is
