Tuss joined NBC4 in 2012 after spending eight years reporting for WTOP Radio. During most of his time there, he reported for the station’s Sprawl and Crawl franchise, which covers transportation around the D.C. area. In addition to his radio reporting, he also wrote a column about transportation for The Washington Examiner.

When he’s not covering news, Tuss tries hopelessly to will Philadelphia’s sports teams to victories. Tuss lives in Falls Church with his wife, two daughters and son.
