We all know that politics is basically a numbers game. A lot of people focus on the polls. The question is could those polls actually be wrong . Todays real clear politics poll as Hillary Clinton leading nine of ten polls ahead of donald trump by 4. 2 . But they be wrong it happened in 2014, 16 preelection polls had democrat Anthony Brown beated republican larry hogan for governor. Hogan won by 5 . Some poll did get it right. Its no the because of how many people at any sampled the because of who they sampled. People like me, we live or die based on our criticize. If im inaccurate, i dont get hired again. Governor hogan would not hire us i do believe that political polls, sometimes theyre taken with skepticism because paid for on behalf of candidate. He continued to point out that Hillary Clintons lead over donald trump is barely over the margin of error but argues he wont know for sure. Of course we wont know for sure until after november 8. An offduty Police Officer says he was profiled and beaten up by cops from Prince Georges County. He he was stopped because he matched the description of a shooting suspect. Paul wagner joins us with both side of the story. Reporter Robert Parker is a fiveyear veteran of the dc police force. He lives here in this neighborhood. Thats iverson mall behind me. There was a shooting at iverson mall around noon yesterday. Dropping off his wifes car at an auto body shot and walking down iverson street. When he says he noticed a number of officers coming and going. Suddenly, one marked cruiser pulled alongside of the curb and a black officer got out. The rest of the story now is in dispute. I heard what sounded like a gunshot. We heard the commotion, heard the gunshots. After that, there was a crash. Reporter few minutes after a man was shot and iverson mall, Prince Georges County police seedy sended on the neighborhood, looking for a suspect only described as a black male wearing a hoodie and blue jeans. Male with a hoodie, blue jeans. Going towards the school at iverson in a residential area. Reporter around the same time, Robert Parker, who was also dressed in a jacket, a hoodie and blue jeans was walking away from the mall down iverson when he says a black Prince Georges CountyPolice Officer pulled up alongside him what happened next is a matter of some dispute. Parker says the officer told him they were looking for someone and he wanted to check him out i cant remember if i said ok or i was kind of baffled. He walked up to me and started patting me down. And im just thinking to myself, is this really happening . Because im a Police Officer. I know the protocol. He reaches around, firearm. And i look at him and i see the look in his eye and i said im the police. Literally, slam, i went to the ground. I kept saying im the police. Im the police. There were two other officers there maybe. I felt their presence, knew they were around. I couldnt get a good look at them. They placed me in handcuffs. Somebody hit me on the right side of my face. Reporter parker says he wasnt resisting and felt the unwarranted then they blamed you yes. Reporter tell me what they said why didnt you tell me you were a Police Officer in the first place . Reporter what was your reaction why didnt you tell me you were going to pat me down . Reporter parker knows now the police were looking for a black male wearing a hoodie and blue jeans and knows now he basically fit the description. We learned today, this is the man police were looking for. Parker said he hates to pull the race card, but believes had he been white, the what he views as Excessive Force would not have happened. If i was a white guy walking in a white neighborhood and the lookout was for a white suspect. Same circumstances, i dont think i would have been treated the same. Reporter parker says he injured his wrist in the takedown and went for treatment at the police and fire cling as well as a hospital emergency room. Reporter the Prince Georges County police are defending their officer tonight even were going to read it in full. It says based on on our preliminary investigation and preliminary review of an audio recording of the encounter in question, we believe our officer acted professionally and with restraint. This encounter took place within several minutes of the shooting being reported at the mall and approximately three blocks from the scene. Our officer, who was responding to the shooting, which had just prompted the lockdown of two nearby schools spotted a man walking who matched the broadcast suspect description. Our to our district 4 station, got out of his cruiser and began an investigatory stop during a patdown our officer discovered the man had a gun in his waistband. At that point, our officer took the man to the ground during a brief struggle. Our preliminary investigation reveals that it was only after the man was restrained by the original officer and backup officers that he identified himself as a Police Officer. Now, Prince Georges County captured by an audio tape and theyve listened to the tape. We know where that came from now. It was from a dash cam on the officers cruiser. But the dash cam was pointing away from the actual takedown. All they have is that audio from the microphone that the officer was wearing. Live in Prince Georges County, Paul Wagner Fox 5 local news.

Its got to be incredibly frustrating. Theres an unwritten rule you just dont talk religion or but if it happens, how do you handle it . Were going to take a closer look at coworkers who post political signs in the office or talk about politics and what you can do dulles dropped to 30 degrees. In fact, we had a widespread freeze especially north and west. Were not going to hear about freeze warnings getting issued. We assume that the growing season is over for many of those areas. By the way, how about this sunset tonight . Sun going down at 6 15. We have a in bringing us a fantastic sunset and those clouds will bring showers our way by tomorrow afternoon. We will time them all out for you. Show you whats going to go on in cleveland as they get ready for game two of the world series and well talk about warmer days beef beef in the newsroom to talk scott ozwald is here right now. Were going to be talking about when youre at work, youre not supposed to talk about politics in the office. What if you have coworkers like this, all sorts of political sign, headlines. What did call this desk next to me when i walked up i look over and shawn looks like a people are president ial election, is it ok to do stuff like this if youre not, of course, in the newsroom, we get questions like this all the time. What can i do . What can i not do as an employer if i get a complaint what do i do . It really depends on whether the employer has a policy. So in the district, we have a law that prohibits an employer from discriminating against someone based on political want to put up a sign at my desk . I can get away with that it depends on whether the employer has a policy, if the employer doesnt, probably so. What if my employer has a policy and my coworkers start complaining i dont have to see her trump posters, i dont have to see her clinton poseds . What happens depends on whether it goes beyond that. The screensaver says something about muslims, for example, that could be a problem. Th complaint could be forced to act. Overall what do you think the best rule of thumb is, they say dont talk politics at dinner or in the office place, what should be the overall policy . Theres a lot of people out there watching right now. What do you think about for the office place we get that all the time at the Employment Law group. Know your employers policy. If your employer doesnt have a policy, ask. Can i have this kind of sign . Kind of a screensaver that says trump for america . Does that hold true for social media personal social as long as you dont work for the go. You can use your social media pretty much as you want. But in the office, you really got to be careful.

Couple of those showers scattered through across Frederick County and again very think youll see much of it. What else youre not going to see much of . Any kind of warning for freezes or frost. It will be chilly, not as cold but keep in mind now weve had a big freeze, especially north and west of town, they wont be issuing advisories or warnings for those areas because the growing season is considered finished.
