this is louisiana straight across. as you look in that intersection across the street where all the police cars are, that's new jersey avenue. as it cuts across towards the senate side of capitol hill, towards the senate rusll building. and then over there, jfk park. at 5:21, an incident down here involving an acura car. we are told it may have been some sort of a hit-and-run incident. and that the car came down louisiana avenue and then somehow cut over here on new jersey and was -- an attempt by police to stop that car. after that happened, a witness told me he heard about eight shots. eight shots and he saw a suspect then lying on the ground on new jersey avenue. and medics came to the scene and began administering cpr. they put the suspect on the gurney and into an ambulance and continued to do medical administrative work on the man. and then they took him out to the hop for further treatment. i'm told he may have been taken to a trauma center nearby. in the meantime, u.s. capitol police have converge order the are

a sad story out of louisiana tonight.t has ended on a positive note. 15-year-old lost his battle with cancer last week. and his family could not afford the $5,000 that the funeral home wanted. so his father dug his son's grave. after hearing that story, the louisiana state troopers association stepped in. their troopers charities does raise money to grant wishes for terminally ill children. they were about to grant melvin's wish before he died, so the troopers decided instead to pay for his funeral so the family could have a beautiful ceremony. >>that is our broadcast. the tonight show is next. have a good one. it's thursday coming up tomorrow! enjoy.

many heard the chase down louisiana avenue and were able to get in here to he see shots.were told by a number of witnesses that they dove in bushes and behind cars. an extraordinary scene that unfolded in a matter of minutes, and i think many would say perhaps a credit to law enforcement in that it was only a few minutes of chase, and although it ended in violence, it was quickly contained. bret. >> carl cameron on the scene as we look at the video there. it is only weeks from the shooting at the holocaust museum, which is on the other side of the capitol, the capitol building, and that of course left a security guard dead in that incident. we are told no other gin rur no other injuries although the police officer may have been hit by the person in the car as it was escaping. if you get more information, we will come back to you live^ . as we mentioned, carl was in his perch above the sonia sotomayor confirmation hearings when he got this call and ran out to the scene there for this briefing. in the hearings today, we're told that the chairman, patrick leahy from vermont,

you see, he's traveling around louisiana presenting the stimulus cash as jumbo checks.lly signed them. it was kind of like, you know, ed mcmahon driving around without the balloons and fancy van, you know. folks, there's more. a couple of weeks ago, less than 24 hours after presenting one of those massive checks which included almost $30,000 that came directly from the recovery act, jindal wrote an op-ed to politico saying the recovery act was a failure. bobby, you can't have it both ways. now he tries to just justify himself by saying he didn't accept some of the unemployment money. but it turns out that he was only about $100 million out of the $3.3 billion allotted to louisiana. so governor jindal, continuing to slam the recovery act while bragging about how that money is improving conditions in his state, that's "psycho talk." >>> coming up, i'm going to tell you about the interesting exchange i had with nebraska senator ben nelson. we got on the phone privately. not anymore. seems he didn't like the way i said on this show that i thought he should shut his trap on

at that point, the chase turned on the louisiana avenue, continued down louisiana ave. the suspect turned on to new jersey and ran into a u.s. capitol police barrier and the car stopped. the police ordered him to show was hands. he did not, he produced a weapon, there was a shooting, and the man was killed. >> when i heard the crash, i started running up to the corner, and then i heard a bunch of pops. i did not realize there were gunshots. i thought they were firecrackers. i turned around, and my kid were against the retaining wall. i realized, those are gunshots. then i stopped running up and stood behind a tree and put my camera on and recorded. >> it started as a chase in front of union station, and it up as a stop near the capitol with the suspect shot dead. by u.s. capitol police. obviously, a big scene here. reporting live from northeast washington, sam ford, abc 7 news. >>> let's get the final word on the weather? >> dinner outside, temperature and 80's. scattered storms tomorrow, and warm. in the weekend, we start with rain, tipsters back in the low 80's. >> ab
