Red line delays next, allison and steve. Thank you very much. And the time everywhere but at surprise treingt is 7 00 and were starting with sunning victory in dopely red conservative Alabama Democrats picked the open seat in Alabama Senate race. Doug jones bet roy hoor in most wapd and controversial of the year. Annie yu live on capitol hill with the latest on how things played out last night, annie, good morning. And good morning, allison and steve. This is a big victory for the democrats and as you mentioned, alabama traditionally a red state and so moving forward, here on capitol hill, were talking about doug jones big win and give the gop just a 51 to 9 edge in u. S. Senate and victory was fueled by huge turnout and a strong turnout and heavily africanamerican counties and meanwhile Roy Moore Says its not over and vowing to keep fighting. Im truly overwhelmed. Im truly, truly overwhelmed. And struggled forwards after a win last night became clear. Alabama has been at a cross road. We have been at crossroads in the past. And ungot fatally we have usually taken the wrong fork, tonight, ladies and gentlemen, you took the right road. [ cheers ]. Jones bested republican roy moore in state where gop politics dominated decades and moore as of last night was not giving in. And thank you for coming tonight which not over and its going to take time. Thank you. And during the campaign moore was hit with claims of Sexual Misconduct from a number of women dating back to 30s. When accusers were teenagers and charges he denied. He was hardly choice of Establishment Republicans and but he was eventually backed by the president and who conceded to defeat on twitter. Congratulations to doug joes own hard fought victory adding republicans will have another shot at this seat and very short period of time. And Republican Leaders in Congress Though may be breathing a sigh of relief. They may have lost a Crucial Senate seat but moore could have periodically become the target of Ethics Committee investigation and he would have become a major issue in next years midterm elections. There were very few republicans in washington and short of donald trump himself that actually wanted roy moore to be in the u. S. Senate. He was never going to be a sure vote for reps on the agenda and was going to be constantly making controversial comment hat other republicans would be asked about as to defend and asked to rebuke. And doug joes will now fill the senate seat vaiked by now attorney general jeff is sessions and that term expiring in 201.

This happened in annandale neighborhood and bob barnard joins us live with the latest and bob, i dont need to tell you these animals are like members of our family . Absolutely.

I want to show you a picture of rufus killed overnight sunday and allowed out into the backyard and fenced in backyard by owner mary tris. She had seen what she out was coyote earlier that day and fairfax Country Police said they had a number of sightings reported to them across fairfax and throughout Northern Virginia and recent days and of course coyotes prey on small pets. 345eurytris talking about roof us. I whistled hor fill and hell come back right away or i can hear him barking and i heard nothing. And then i saw this animal which i assume it a coyote kind of walking just beyond the fence and its all a little scary then. It was not until the next after i talked to somebody at a shelter who suggested that since i had seen that animal i should probably go and check my entire yard like beyond the fence. It kind of goes downhill its woodsy and overgrown and everything and so i did and i found him he was life half even. Its sad now because i realize unless i ever get a big dog i mean with my little dog there i could never let him outside again in the back. An now heres advice from fairfax Country Police. They say never feed or attempt to time a coyote. Keep trash inside until morning of pickup which is this morning here in annandale and if you can, and you dont feed your pets outside. Dont feed pets outside. Keep smaller pets inside if you can. And of course they have to go out and do thing you have to keep an eye on them and be aware moistly at dusk and d dawn. Is that the when the coyotes are most coming up in 00 hour well hav
