Last friday, three gun men entered and announce add robbery. According to a police report, the men wanted promethazine, percocet and octobers si could the tin. In the other robbery 25 minutes later, two men jumped the counter with bags also looking for drugs. While standing in front of a table full of pistols taken off the street, chief newsham said the dangerous wor thieves and dealers is beginning to pay off. I must note that the men and women on this unit face some of the most difficult dangers that Law Enforcement faces. Theyre involved in high risk operations. But they do it in a highly effective, safe and respectful way. In 2016, the narcotics Enforcement Unit recovered over 200,000 worth of Illegal Drugs including crack cocaine, pcp, heroin, synthetic, methamphetamines. Reporter he said in all of 2016, the unit recovered a total of 42 guns but so far this year, it has already seized 49 illegal guns. Some of which had high capacity magazines. Past several years were starting to see seems like were seeing an up tick in the number of to extended magazines that we are recovering. And as you know, when you have extended magazines, it gives the person whos handling the many more round. Reporter the mayor said aside money to fight addiction. An approach she feels is necessary in keeping the city safe. When mpd identifies a person committing a crime and that crime is theyre buying or using drug, addicts, we, instead of taking them to jail, we will be able to refer them to a Better Mental Health Substance Abuse resource. So we have budgeted for Mental Health personnel to in some cases co respond with the police. Reporter as for the violent robberies, police are hoping someone will recognize those faces and turn the gunmen in just a word about the new unit it was put together under former chief kathy lanier after she got rid of the vice there was an out cry for many people they didnt want to see them go away.

Paul wagner fox 5 local news were learning new information about a report from dcs Inspector General alleging former dc School Chancellor gave preferential treatment. Official and another Memorial Point tea are said to be among those granted school transfers. More on this. Reporter were told this is one of the most Popular Schools in the district. It has a very long waiting list. A lot of parents wanting to get their kids in here. But the Washington Post is reporting that deputy mayor courtney snowed en was able to communicate with former schools chancellor Kia Henderson and get her son into the a lot are concerned about that asking whether or not she got preferential treatment. The Wilson Building is buzzing over this probe. We first learned last month, former chancellor henderson being investigated for giving he preferential treatment to some, including dc officials by authorizing transfers into some of dcs most sought after schools, now a deputy mayor admits she asked the chancellor to help with her sons placement. It certainly raises an eyebrow because its a Popular School and great school. When they say there are district officials involved, that makes me upset. Reporter Courtney Snowden issued this saying, in part, i was thankful to have the chancellors discretion in understanding my sons unique needs, as i pursued an option available to every parent. We asked mayor bowser about what some believe could be special treatment have you talked to deputy mayor about this situation . Are you at all upset with how this deputy mayor presented to the chancellor, which is a right of every parent, a special set of circumstances for her family. And the chancellor made the decision that she thought was best education chairman david grosso said he seen the report. It doesnt list names but refers to seven people. Including a former elected official. Hes meeting with his lawyers to impose additional restrictions even though he believes past restrictions were violated. These restrictions are pretty clear. And the chancellor decided it was ok to give some kind of preference outside of those restrictions, thats where you had the problem. Reporter mayor bowser also been briefed by the Inspector General. She instructed her staff to also come up with new guide posts for transfers authorized by current and future chancellors. Can you tell the what those guide posts might be my general counsel just thrown out some ideas, i would say its premature to tal actually, i believe its going to be important for us to consult with educators. Reporter Council Member charles allen, who is the Council Member for ward 6 this area says hes been getting a lot of calls from parents today, concerned that they couldnt get their kids into this school, but a government leader was able to. By the way when we first did the story, Kia Henderson issued a statement saying she stands by her actions and said im deeply disappointed by these continue what will attacks on my integrity in an attempt to my personal and professional reputation. In northeast, matt ackland, fox 5 local news. First it was american university. Now a racist incident at the university of maryland has sparked a protest.

Alex . Reporter the students tell me, it was actually a black chef that found that noose in the kitchen of one of these fraternity houses here at the university of Maryland College park. And students are upset because they claim the university did not send an email out to all students to notify them about what happened. Today, they staged a march and a sitin, students say the university only sent out an alert to the president s and leaders of the fraternities and sororities on campus and the email went out may 3rd, about one week after the noose was found on april 27th. In addition, these Student Organization called protect you m d said there have been other incidents of hate on campus in recent months. Including white supremist posters chalking and an allegedly by fraternities alleging that black and indian female students are easier to sleep with. The group said they want swifter action. They previously delivered a list of 64 demands to University Officials for dealing with these hate incidents but the students say theyre not happy about how that meeting went. Everything we had to say, it was not a collaborative environment. It was kind of like we will make a comment. We will get a smirk or a laugh newer their breath or Something Like that. Or we would just we didnt feel welcome and went feel like the University Administration that puts themselves out there publicly to support us was supporting us and i dont understand why there are many students that dont even know there was a noose and to not know is not ok. There should at least have been something within 24 to 48 hours letting the Campus Community know that there was a noose found and theyre doing everything in their alleged power to find out thats all we want. Reporter umd president wallace low released statement calling the incident despicable. His statement also said, in part, quote, i resolutely condemn the use of a symbol of violence and hatred for the purpose of intimidating members of our university of maryland community. Now, the Campus Police Department Confirms there is an Investigation Underway at the Vice President of Student Affairs tells me through a statement that she reached out to these students to invite them to individually have conversations with her, so that they can figure out these tough issues. Now, as far as that question about whether or not the university emailed all students to notify them, i asked the Communications Department about that, and they said that at this time, they wont have an answer for that and they dont know why that did or didnt happen.

Keep your eyes out for way ward cows four escaped monday from an area where they were grazing. Only one captured. Fox 5 chief live stock correspond gary mcgrady joining us from leesburg where the search rolls for an this. I knew you would say Something Like that i knew you would say something. Look, heres the deal. We all know monday the cows got out. We got video. This is amazing. This video came to us, from state senator jeffery wexston where her house not very far from if youre in leesburg you probably know where that is, in front of the 7eleven. Lets come off the video and donna z zoomed in, this is one of the could you tell us that got out. The local veterinarian stated her and brought her back out. But as she is getting up, when they brought the cows over, when they brought them over on monday, there was a gate that was left open, and the cows escaped. They just walked out. Not like they were doing anything. So three of them are still gone. The calf and two cows. This is the cow they brought back. Now, when we got here, she was right at the fence and very agitated. You can just tell she was agitated. My grandfather had a farm, she just had a calf, so the calf thats missing with the other two could you tell us, not her calf. They mistakens brought a different calf over from the farm. These four cows when they wont enough room they bring them over. What we have now, three cows missing. Now, theyre hoping to bring her calf back over to this little lot for two reasons. Cows do not like to be by themselves, they dont like to be alone. Theyre social and they want to get her calf back, again, she was clearly agitated when she was standing here. She was taking all challenges, but she ran over there, just before the live shot. In Loudoun County and leesburg, theres still two black cows missing, full size, an calf running around. They have no idea where they are. If you see them, you need to call Loudoun County animal control. I hope the number is on your screen. You call them, theyre just simply waiting, theres no active search. Theyre just trying to figure out where they are. If you see them,s and you wont mistake them, you need to call that number you mean the helicopter is not up in the air . I dont know if it was on that matter. No, its not. But i put my reporting cap on and got my live stock. Theres the details of what we know. Now you know about the missing calves did you ever learn how to las so growing up in texas. I never was part of the rodeo. Everything i know about cows is because of my grandfathers farm in north carolina. I group in texas. Keep an eye out there, gary. Got to the bottom of i standing in my field. Thank you, gary.

Top stories, the search continues tonight for an armed man who ran away from a traffic stop in Baltimore County. The maryland state trooper stopped marcus lend, when the trooper approached, he noticed lend nonwas wearing a gun, he reached in the car and handcuffed him but lennon drove off the search is for an at a group of men, it happened at the bpgas station on 41th and alabama avenue. A clerk at the store says the would be thieves arrived in a pull the atm loose. Officials say this is the second time the gas station has been targeted. In Loudoun County, a domainian High School Student charged with making threats on social media. The 16yearold allegedly aimed the threat at his school. School records officer learned of the social media post last week. Deputies found guns inside a home that belonged to one of his relatives, but investigators uncovered no threat to the school. And in Montgomery County federal immigration officials reacting after the release of a High School Student accused of stealing a Police Weapon karen. 19yearold was released on 2,000 bond may 3rd, ice claims it placed immigration detainer against him one day earlier on may 2nd, based upon that he shouldnt have been released hes been on the radar since entering illegally. Ice agents did pick him up on my 4th and hes at the Howard County detention center. Joinings and other issues in Montgomery County. Executive ike, legend. Glad to have you here. Give us a sense of whats going on, we heard ice reacting to what happened. What happened here . I think theres a little bit. An overreaction, but i do agree with him that we should have honored this detainer, because when you look at the multitude of charges it, in my opinion, should have been honored. Of i was a little bit disappointed that the judge had removed the bail from 50,000 down to 2,000. When you look at the overall charges and fact that, at least, in this case, the defendant was charged in i think it was Baltimore County as well. To put him out on a 2,000 bond i believe was inappropriate. Considering the climate, we had the decision about a week or so ago they werent going to proceed with the charges in Rockville High School that got a lot of attention. Would you say that theres youre operating under a microphone when it comes to immigration issues because were right next to the nations capitol, weve b operating in such a microphone, keep in mind that what we try to do at Montgomery County is balance Public Safety not doing the federal jobs to county and i think we balanced fairly well. In this case, the person was not totally free. It was a quick turn around time. They had an ankle bracelet. In fact, ice knew also when the person was in the jail, they had that information, so i think theyre making much more of a case of it to show as an example the Community Need to be tough but i think they overstated the challenge that related to this particular case, again, i do agree we should have honored the detainer one issue that came up quite a bit when we saw what happened, and not so much to the extent of this, but the sanctuary city you topic, which went through the maryland lawmakers debated it, Governor Hogan said hes not a fan. You certainly oppose that sort of legislation i did. I oppose that legislation both in rockville as well as annapolis because i thought, i do approve the approach Montgomery County takes, we do into the participate on many miss mean in hers and ear actions with ice but in serious cases like this we should have honored it the way i phrased. I may be wrong, lawmakers were passing sanctuary, Governor Hogan opposed the concept was something you were favor of. It goes so many different ways here, the way i want to make sure i got. I opposed it at the state level as well as well as the city of rockville there are people out there and the reaction again, maybe not completely within maryland but when people look at these case, we go back to rockville, why would those lawmakers move in that general direction considering the immigration was anible that came up during the president ial election would you say that the focus really intensified once we heard if then candidate now President Trump talking about it i think the changed. Theres more of awareness focused on it. Again, i think in this particular case, ice was trying to use as an example something that i think was not as brave as they tried to describe it. But again, i agreed with them in terms of the principal for this particular case for the charges here, we should have honored that detainer i want to ask you before you go. I know youve said you were definitively not going to do it but we had Kathleen Matthews in this week. Youve said before youre not going to run youre still not no, not running. Made up your mind certainly whats going to be next for you well, i therapy retire and get out of politics altogether. At least for the time being. Of but i think theres other things i want to do. The debate continues obviously across the country in Montgomery County, but good seeing you, thank you for coming in. Thanks for having sarah, back to you. I am honored to become a wildcat. And its a honor to be with you as we celebrate the put bethune class of 2017 thats betsy devos, during a commencement speech, a Bethune Cookman university today, about half graduating students even turned their backs on devos in protest. Despite calls for the historically black university to rescind the invitation, devos carried on, at one point, the boos got so loud, the president stepped in to warn students that at the disruptions continued he would mail their diplomas instead. I want to reaffirm this administrations commitment to and support for hbcus and students they serve. Please know this. We support you and we will continue to support you. Earlier this year, devos offended many africanamericans by calling historical black colleges and University Pioneers when it comes to school choice, she was forced to walk back the remark. Todays commencement speech was a first for devos as education secretary. She was also given an honorary degree. Coming up, a close call, how a quick thinking officer made the right move to stop a potential suicide attempt. This is new look .

We talked to chief newsham earlier about the reason for the change. With regards to earrings, he we wanted a make our policy consistent across the genders, thats a legal mandate. With regards to the beards, that was a decision that i made because there were a number of officers that were requesting to have the beards. I think theyre pleased with that decision.
