redo it all, we wouldn't -- we're not parents that couldn't but there was a civilian car accept something like this. do you think we would go to all that was hit by a bullet, as this trouble to just say our son well. didn't commit suicide? this is taken over our life. burr r but authorities say they we're fighting for justice. do not know the name of the person driving that car. we're fighting for our country. he continued firing, kemt firing no. there is nothing that could be at authorities who were surrounding him and then authorities hit him. the suspect has been flown to a hospital in ft. worth texas, not too far away from here where we're told that the suspect is dead on life support and waiting to see if they will harvest his organs. said that would convince us otherwise. >> we don't want to minimize anybody that ever lost a son or a daughter due to suicide. that is a horrendous tragedy. but i would say that would be a lot easier to deal with. i mean we can't put this to bed. we know shane was living it. we lived with his statements they're still trying to investigate him. every week. >> we're going to be joined by the police in just a moment. the authorities have ruled out it was a random act of violence. they're looking into whether his job had something to do with his i've seen the marks on his

breaking news and our top story, the suspect who led police on a high speed car chase in texas and who may be connected with the murder of the colorado prison chief is now dead. we have a reporter in wise county, texas. ed, what can you tell us? >> reporter: erin, after the accident here in the town of decatur, texas, where the suspect had been driving that car and had been hit broadsided by a semi truck and then got into a shootout, a continued shootout with authorities here earlier today, authorities shot him. he was flown to a hospital in

ft. worth. texas not too far away from here. he had been put essentially on life support. they were waiting to determine whether they could harvest his organs. i'm told by the wise county sheriff here in decatur, texas, that suspect has been taken off life support and passed away. what is interesting however, is that they so far do not know his identity. but they have already fingerprinted him and they're in the process of trying to figure out exactly who he is. in the meantime, investigators from colorado have jumped on planes and scrambled and are scrambling their way down here and expected to be here within the next couple of hours where they will begin the process of going through the suspect's car where we're told by investigators here in texas that there is evidence that these investigators from colorado will definitely want to see. what exactly all that means specifically, we do not know. but investigators will be working very closely and getting into that car and see what kind of evidence they can find and see if it's connected to the murder of that director of the colorado prison system.

erin? >> ed, thank you very much. and now our fourth story "outfront," new threats today from north korea. the north korean military warns the united states that american bases in guam and japan are within striking range of korean missiles. now, could they, would they actually hit american targets? "outfront" tonight, center for stra strategic and international studies. they say good wap. they say japan? what about hawaii? what about american samoa? what about the other islands? >> erin, they have medium range ballistic missile force that is deployed right now, meaning it's operational that has a range of about 1,000 miles. and so they can hit anything within 1,000 miles. we don't know about their targeting capability. but they certainly have the range to do that. beyond that, they're developing other missiles, some of which we've seen them test that can go much farther, 4,000 to 6,000 miles, perhaps even farther. so they're clearly building toward the capability where they can try to threaten every part of the united states where we may have forces or where our allies are around the world.

>> so victor, when we think about this we've been talking about west coast of the u.s. you think about hawaii, it brings back memories of pearl harbor, another time where it was the easiest place to strike in the pacific was closer to asia in hawaii. should we be taking the north korean threat more seriously? i mean it seems we have a missile defense program the president is rebooting. but are we taking it seriously enough? >> well, i certainly think that the recent set of tests, the missile tests in december and then the nuclear test in february in which they appeared to have advanced their programs has created enough of a concern that i think we are taking it more seriously. last week there was an announcement of our intent to move to put 14 new interceptors, missile defense interceptors up which is a sign that we're taking this quite seriously now. but i think we should. >> all right.

thank you very much, victor. we appreciate you taking the time tonight. and now to a story we've been "outfront" on, the mysterious hanging death of 31-year-old yelled shane todd. he is from montana. but he was found dead in his apartment in singapore. the fbi is now investigating the case. secretary of state john kerry and attorney general eric hold rer asking questions of the singapore government. singapore police say todd committed suicide. todd's parents say it was murder. now shane todd was found dead in his apartment in june just hours after his last day working for a prestigious government research firm. but did his work make him a target? >> reporter: shane todd, 31 years old, had a phd in electrical engineering and by all accounts a very bright future. he was working for the institute of micro electronics or ime, a prominent singapore research facility. his project involved creating faster, more powerful semiconductors. his parents say that in his last

few months he was stressed, even expressing fear for his life. he had told them he didn't feel right about his work. that it might be illegal, even a risk to u.s. national security. with little faith in the singapore police and the fbi unable to help in a foreign country, the todds had little choice but to launch their own investigation. rick todd had pictures of shane's body taken when it returned to the u.s. they gave them and the singaporean coroner's report to a forensic pathology in any event missouri. his conclusion, shane was murdered. most likely strangled by a wire. the evidence, bruises on his hands and a lump on his forehead indicating a fight. the back of shane's neck was cut, hanging only causes damage to the front of the neck. there were bruises on shane's fingers and neck indicating he was trying to squeeze his hands under the wire, again struggling to live. >> it's very hard to go through the pictures. but we will go to the ends of the earth to see justice is done. >> shane todd's parents, mary and rick, are "outfront" tonight.

thanks so much to both of you. rick, i know the secretary of state john kerry is involved. the fbi is now involved in investigating the death of your son. have they learned anything? >> well, we know -- we received some word from singapore that they're cooperating. but we're insistent they need to get access to both of shane's
