Firefighters are trying to keep this communities safe. Basically they were concerned that people could be walking on the sidewalk and some of the debris could have fallen on them. So its better just to knock this thing down to prevent any accidents. Live look right now. We interviewed the homeowner, he says that a faulty pluggedin power strip sparked the blaze. Only on 4, amateur cell phone video captures orange flames thick black smoke shooting out of this town house in the alexandria section of Fairfax County. Its really hard. Reporter mohammed is in a daze. He tells me he plugged in his ipad, a personal computer and a kindle fire into a cheap power strip. Suddenly a real fire was in his living room. The fire was behind the couch. It burned his arm, his face. He ran outside for help. Everything i worked for, its just gone. Burned down. Gone gone. Tonight firefighters tell me the fire started around 3 30. 70 firefighters put out the blaze in around half an hour, it and took another 30 minutes to extinguish hot spots. One firefighter was injured but hes going to be okay. Mohammed lived in this house with his parents. His dad is devastated. Dont cry. We are your neighbors. Reporter neighbors give him hugs.

Live in alexandria virginia im shomari stone, news 4. Folks who ride metro are hoping that their commute tomorrow morning will be a whole lot better than it was today. Thousands of people were delayed today. The freezing temperatures caused some of the older trains to break down. Cracked rails had some trains single tracking. Metro finished the repairs this afternoon. Officials there say when its this cold they do have extra crews checking the system to stay ahead of any potential problems. Folks at wssc say theyre preparing for a heavier workload this winter. So far in 2015 there have already been 66 water main breaks all over montgomery and prince georges counties. Last year was an aboveaverage year for breaks with nearly 2,000 of them. The largest number of breaks on record was back in 2007. Just over 2,100. Wssc says more than 200 workers are strategically placed throughout their service area to respond to any breaks. Well boston is going to be the American City that will compete for the 2024 summer olympics. That news late this afternoon disappointed d. C. Government and business leaders. Theyd been working for a year to compete for the summer games. Chris lawrence spoke to mayor Muriel Bowser about all that. Chris . Well jim, lets face it. This is not the logo a lot of folks in washington wanted to see. Including ted and the mayor. Came down to boston al san francisco, and d. C. And while the u. S. Olympic Committee Says it took more than one round of voting to pick a winner the final decision was unanimous. Call it disappointment in the district. Our area got beat out by bean town. A lot of the venues and stuff that would be left over post olympics im sure the surrounding community could definitely benefit from. The games could have galvanized consensus around big projects leaving officials wondering, what might have been. We had a compact footprint, existing infrastructure and quite frankly, i thought it was good for us because it would help us speed up some of our already planned development. But mayor bowser says no hard feelings. We are disappointed but i take this time to wish the people of boston well and were going to cheer for them to bring the games home. But not everyone thinks hosting the olympics is such a great thing. Some say d. C. Might have won by losing. A lot of traffic and influx of visitors which is hard to deal with. And everything built might go to waste afterwards. It could be a blessing in disguise. It costs london about 14 billion, three times the original budget. And chicago spent about 100 million on a failed bid for the 2016 games. Some critics say the olympics can divert host citys attention and resources from existing issues. Like homeless lack of Affordable Housing and improvements to metro. But i think moving big events would help us in the long run, because it would force us to create new solutions to already problems. I think walking away from a challenge does not solve the issue. And look rome is in the running, possibly paris too, and perhaps the first city from africa as well. So theres no guarantee that bostons bid will win. Mayor bowser refused to say either way if she would support another d. C. Bid down the road. Chris lawrence news 4. Thanks chris.
