To maryland now and breaking details on horrific shooting inside of a waldorf home. Police now say a teenager who was shot at the home has died. Two others including a toddler were also killed. With the latest. Reporter good morning and Sarah Charles county Sheriffs Office just giving us that information a little while ago, yes, that the 17yearold who was rushed to the hospital last night along with her mother did not survive. It was about 8 00 oclock last night when Charles County sheriffs detectives received many, many phone calls about the sound of gunshots here at the townhouse, and they went inside, and they found this first of all they found a man inside who was deceased. They continue to search this townhouse here. They found a young toddler, three or four years old, also deceased. And then the two women, the teenaged girl and the adult which we can is the wife of the man were also suffering from multiple gunshot wounds officers also said that they located a gun next to called this a domestic incident or said it appears to be a domestic incident. Now, we did speak to neighbors here one whos daughter goes to school with the 17yearold who the daughter herself was frightened yesterday at the sound of gunshots. Now hearing what has happened with those gunshots theyre just trying to make sense of it all. I tell my kids to live every day to the fullest because youre not promised tomorrow. Some people dont understand why they do the things that they do. Reporter and we also were able to reach some of coworkers of the woman who was fighting for her life now. We have no idea, no way to know if she is aware that her two daughters did not survive and her what we believe to be her husband either. But those coworker said that she always appeared happy, never any signs of trouble back at i also did a brief court record essential here in maryland to see if perhaps there might be any clues i can tell you they all came up empty. No indication of any kind of dough mystic issues related to these people or this home. So still so many questions as to why this would happen. Live in waldorf, im Melanie Alnwick fox5 local news. Tragic story indeed. 9 10. Lets get to metro. Fair hikes and cuts weve been talking about for weeks now official and coming pretty soon. Starting in july rail fares go up by ten cents during peak times rush hour of 25 cents other times. Bus fares going up a quarter. During rush hour trains will now arrive at stations every eight minutes instead of every six minutes throughout most of the system. And some bus routes will be he will limb nailed. The changes are expected to help metro save an estimated 29 million. Another big headline about metro Virginia Governor derr mccall live hes ordering independent review of wmat. Ray that panel. Hell look at everything when it comes to metro for his review including and the service being provided before he make his recommendation to the governor. Metro is not in a death spiral. And but but service has been cut, fares have been increased. And thats not the way you want to run a metro system. When we, Hillary Clinton we served as secretary of transportation, we work with transit systems all over america and we we provided some funding but we also provided some some best practices and thats what we really want to get back to. Best practices for delivering people around the region at a cost that they can afford on a system that is safe and well run i think we can get back to that. I really do. Secretary lahood also says metro needs support from the doesnt think theyll get much support though under the trump add vision due to budget cuts. Definitely tough you have different jurisdictions that want different thing. The governor of maryland doesnt want to put tax in statewide to pay for this. The mayor of dc maybe we could do some type of Regional Sales tax. Its tough when you have this many jurisdictions involved to get everybody on the same paged to something. Everybody realizes that something has to be done but not everybody can come together on what that something is. Sure. Definitely a tough challenge there. 9 12. Lets talk about this that rape investigation at Rockville High School. Reigniting the illegal immigration debate in maryland. But its also getting attention up on capitol hill. Well have all the details neck. And later would social media still be popular if you had to pay to use it . We could soon find out. Well tell you what your every day apps could start charging a little later. Currently its 9 12 here at good day. 9 15 is the time right now. Charges against two teens accused of raping 14yearold Rockville High School student have reignited the political battle over illegal immigration. Both came to the United States illegally last year. The case is now capturing the attention of capitol hill. At least two members of congress have written to u. S. Immig immigrations officials for information on8 Sanchez Millan and 17yearold jose montana they were both due to have deportation hearings and never happened. Earlier this morning our bob barnard spoke with the defense attorney for Sanchez Millan who addressed the illegal immigration topic and the claims that the sex was consensual. Mr. Sanchez is presumed innocent, number two hell plead innocent and were hopeful jury yours will find him innocent. I cant go anything i cant go anything he told me but frankly his position is going to be that this was a preplanned consensual nonforcible encounter. Reporter with two teenagers in a boys bathroom in the middle of the school day . Thats correct. I mean there is evidence that will come out later, i believe, that this was a planned encounter with this young lady at least one of these gentleme. Reporter when we had your statement on our news yesterday morning, i heard from several people saying, well, a 14yearold girl cant grant consent, have consensual sex. Certainly. Reporter how do you answer to that . Thats everybodys first reaction but in maryland, in order to have statutory rape where consent is not a defense, the victim needs to be four years younger by the day from the perpetrator and in this case, the victim is three years and eight months younger than my client so its not statutory rape and thats why the police didnt charge this as statutory rape. Reporter also this is reignited the whole immigration debate. Your client in this country illegally, correct . Well he was stopped at the border and he was detained by ice and he was detained for 12 days but then ice made the discretionary decision to simply let him go and then they put him on plane in texas and his father had to pay for the ticket and his father picked em hup at bwi airport and hes been country with the full awareness of ice for the last since september of this year. Reporter has no hearing, his status is just kind of open ended and is that the case like could this young man had he not gotten into trouble who knows how this thing could have been here going to school, working illegally in the country and going along scott free . Theres been so many people that have come through the border that are underage in the last year. So what happened immigration just doesnt have the resources to deal with all of these people coming in. So what they do, they detain they will, investigate them and find out if theres gang affiliation, fine out if theres any record in their home country or any record here in the United States or any family members that are dangerous or things like that, and if theres 91 generally they release them and say you must appear in court court for the next court date. It used to be four months out. But now with the delays it appears to be from five months to a year out. Essentially he will be getting notice from ice. There will be a court date. We will represent him there and we are going to aggressively assert a claim of asylum for this young man because he was fleeing Gang Violence and gang threats in his hometown. No matter what the out come of a possible trial advocates of strong Immigration Reform say both accused should be deported any way since they crossed the border illegal 9 18.
