place on monday. back to you. >> you got that necklace on too, huh? >> yes, absolutely. i wear it every single time i cover the space story. >> it's awesome. thank you for sharing it with us. well, we need to get to some breaking news right now. out of new york, they would fear that the delta flight may have sustained a bird strike right after take off. the faa says that the boeing 757 declared an emergency for the engine problem and then the pilot turned the plane around and landed safely at jfk. the passengers on board said they heard a loud grinding noise. the plane began to shake and they did land safely once again. no injuries were reported. now to a story you first saw reported on 9news now. d.c. police are tracking a new lead tonight in a break-in at the district's auditors office. they are trying to figure out who stole two laptops at the office.

our bruce johnson broke the news of the burglary last night and bruce leshan follows that today. what do we know about it, bruce? >> reporter: well, just behind me, the auditors office and the question as richard's press secretary might say, is this just a third rate burglary or something more? well, d.c. police, they are releasing what may be their best lead yet. it is a surveillance video of what they call a person of interest. a chubby white male lurking around the hallway of the d.c. auditor's office on monday. emancipation day when d.c. offices were closed. police are trying to figure out his identity and whether he is the guy that stole two dell laptops from the auditor's office. >> i'm hopeful that they will quickly get to the bottom. and you know, what has occurred, what motivated them,

what precipitated that. and i hope that it had nothing to do with the ongoing investigations. >> reporter: the auditor looks into the efficiency and control. they are running about two dozen investigations right now, including one into how theformer council member was able tosifen off more than $300,000 in grants to youth programs. council chairman said in a statement that he is concerned about the burglary and considers it a serious matter. but he declined further comment. the police report says that the thief pried open several internal doors to steal the laptops. the auditor also declined interview requests, so it is not clear if the computers contained sensitive data or whether that data was backed up on the auditor's office network. and the building also houses the d.c. inspector general's

office, but there's no word that anything was taken there. and we spoke to the mayor last night. >> hopefully it was not an ongoing investigation. >> right. you know that there are plenty of those going on right now. >> yes, certainly. >> they are hoping that somebody will recognize the guy in that surveillance video. give them a call and so they could get to the bottom of this. anita? >> that's a clear picture. all right, thank you. and the trial of five men, charged in one of the district's deadliest shooting is about to come to an end. five people were killed in three separate shootings march of 2010. nine others were hurt. during today's closing arguments, they said that the shootings were sparked by a missing piece of jewelry. they are brothers right now and along with jeffrey best, robert bach and lamar williams.

a health alert tonight about the measles. the cdc said last year was the worst for measles in the u.s. and for 15 years. more than 200 cases, a large jump from the 60 or so that we have seen a typical year. the health officials said most of the cases came from overseas where the vaccination rates have been low and big outbreaks have happened like the london olympics coming up. they want to make sure that u.s. travelers are fully vaccinated. okay, anyone out there have one of these in their purse?

and it will be a female condom, a relatively new method of birthday controls and the std protection. that way you can have it on hand if they are sexually active. a couple years ago, the district health centers started introducing this and educating women, trying to list any stigma about keeping it on hand. the biggest goal is stopping new cases of hiv. >> if they had a female condom too and i got infected, then you know, it would have made it a lot easier. >> reporter: she is talking about the sc2 condom that hit the market two years ago when the dc health department started a new push to combat the hiv epidemic in the district. they distributed more than 200,000sd2 female condom. >> this is safe and exciting and i want women to realize this is something they can use and add it to their things to protect themselves and also protect their partner. >> reporter: the african american women account for nearly 57% of new hiv

infections. and 90% of the new infections in the district. two years after the program started. >> the study in d.c. is really important. because you know it shows that this program could work. >> reporter: it shows. so far, the program is a success. >> and it is the public health. we were involved in partnership with the d.c. public health in evaluating this project as we tried to assess the cost of delivering the program, the cost of the education, as will as making -- as well as making estimates. >> reporter: now, he says that the female condom giveaway provided new infections the first year to save more than $8 million in the future medical cost. and this was an investment of a little over $400,000. >> i think that it provides a great example for other cities to use in the future. >> and let's hope that it happens. a key part is educating women to get them comfortable. you don't see them a lot, keeping them on hand. they are still available at the

district health centers. you can also buy them at cvs pharmacies. for more information, check the health page. wusa9.com. and public citizens, once the diabetes drug was pulled from the market. the consumer advocacy group says that it could raise the risk of the thyroid cancer. and it also cites internal fda documents that knows the agency improved it back in 2010 against the recommendation of three staff scientists. start getting the expired prescription drugs together. the national prescription drug takeback day is next saturday. in the last two years, four nationwide events have collected more than 500 tons of prescription drugs for safe disposals. and we are teaming up with the university of maryland to give you a new ipad. and you can also get a university of the survival kit, filled up with free stuff from

and a shower and a storm holding in the upper 60s. and we have not given that up yet, but they will be trending east. >> all right, thank you. and it is not quite as warm as we have seen dave owens today. >> yeah, you knew he was on the ice of the verizon center. l they were tough to beat. but now they are on a little bit of the roll here. >> about 20 guys will suit up for them, but nicholas backstrom will not be one of them. as the sirens sounded at the end of game three. that's the controversial topic, a little view for you here and they appeared to be trying to help the teammate as they said that he was the aggressor and he was just trying to protect himself and he also said that they have been going out throughout the series. and the punishment, it should be moved on through. and they are saying no, no, no. for that, we'll talk to the fans. they will cover them as well as

anybody. unfortunately, i guess that they had gotten used to playing. how do they overcome it? >> it will be tough tonight, but they got used to it. they know how to play without them. that will be the second line for you. they will need to step up their game where you will miss them the most. they finally broke through it the last game. keep it. it will probably be the number one power play for you tonight, but it will be tough without your best two-way player tonight. and they will need to win tonight and they won't have them. they got off just a little bit, admitting that. what did they talk about the last couple of days about changing that? >> well, they would like to get under your skin,est herbal by -- especially after the whistle. they cannot get on out there after the whistle. you saw what happened to them. what they will need to do tonight, you will need to stay composed. don't get into what the bruins will be doing after the cheap shot. they need to clear out here in front of them. and they didn't clear it out in

the last game. they had two goals right there where they had another one deflecting it in. l but they also need to block the shots too. those are things they didn't do in game two or three. verses 14 penalty minutes. you talk about it. and any concern with him moving forward? it was not the best game in game three if you take a look at the goals here, the first one, yeah, he should have had it and it was very soft for them. they had rebounds and the fourth goal went off the stick. there's nothing that you could do about it. they played great so far and they have no concerns. just remember that they have been gaining them as the backup. and hopefully you could make a mistake or two, they are not getting pulled. >> all right. hopefully we will be talking about a big win series for you heading back to boston. >> all right, we will send it back to you in the studios. much more coming up in a few minutes. >> all right, thanks a lot. and still ahead tonight, a lot of attention on florida's gun control law after a
