i'm miguel marquez in for john berman who hat day off. >> i'm zoraida sambolin. tuesday, november 5th. 5:00 a.m. in the first. first, we start with gunfire. witnesses say a man opened in black opened fire at 9:30 last night inside the westfield garden state plaza mall in paramus. after a massive search we are finding out the shooter's body has just been found. late-breakinging details and get straight to nic robertson who is live in paramus. >> reporter: police found the body of the man who went into the mall shooting, richard shoop's body was found at 3:20 a.m. this morning in the back of the shopping mall behind a building area under construction some distance where he entered the mall six hours earlier. police say he took his own life,
2:02 am
that he was probably laying dead there for some hours. he had entered the shopping mall, gone through the mall and arrived at a place where he took his own life. i'm joined by the prosecutor here, john mullanely. can you talk us through exactly what happened tonight? >> some time after 9:00 p.m., mr. shoop came in dressed all in black and wearing a black motorcycle helmet with his rifle and shortly after entering, let go about a minimum of six rounds or maybe more. we have to look at it yet. in an area he could have easily hit individuals but chose not to. based upon what our investigation disclosed over the hours that followed, we believe that he went in there with the intent to either be shot by police, which we call suicide or to take his own life, which he ultimately did. >> what have you learned about this young man? >> a troubled person. someone that, you know, has a
2:03 am
history of drug use. you wouldn't think that at age 20, age 20, how much can you do in your life, but in his life, he at least thought that he had reached a point on where there was no recourse other than to take his own life. >> reporter: you've talked to his family. you talked earlier indications from what they told you, you're not surprised that it ended this way. >> i'm not and they are not. they were helpful. they gave us some information that allowed us to, you know, begin to put some pieces together on this. we still didn't know whether it was mr. shoop until 3:20 this morning until we saw his body but we had an indication but we also believe he was in the mall. that was very, very important. you know, somebody comes in and shoots up a mall and then they leave, that would have been much worse. >> reporter: 400 law enforcement officers going through the mall. no injuries, apart from his. you said very clearly that he didn't go in there to kill anyone. what was he shooting at? >> random.
2:04 am
a couple of shots into the ceiling. a shot into an escalator, one into a facade area for one of the retail stores. he had more than opportunity. there were thousands of people in this mall at 9:20 tonight and many of them were within five feet from him. he clearly had the ability to shoot an individual but he did not. >> a disturbed man that took his own life. prosecutor john mulanelli, thank you very much. the details we are beginning to learn. a long night for law enforcement officers here. 400 people or so barricaded into their stores. police still at this time going through the shopping mall and making sure they have accounted for everyone. the mall will remain closed today. >> nic, are they certain nobody else was involved? because earlier reports when you were listening to the eyewitnesses there, they were saying they heard a lot of shots and thought maybe there were some additional people and feel confident now this was a lone
2:05 am
gunman? >> reporter: confident a lone gunman. he had taken his brother's weapon, his brother owned the weapon legally. it was a modified rifle rifle, ..22-caliber meant to look like an ak-47. a serious weapon stolen from his brother but he is believed to be the only person involved in this. >> nic robertson, great to have you there for us. thank you. now to our other big story this morning. election day. voters are heading to the polls to decide a number of state and local races that could impact the political landscape across the country. maybe the most notable contest is chris christie expected to win the second term as new jersey governor. he is mentioned as a possible candidate in 2016 for the presidency and things he did at the campaign stop did lilve to quiet those whispers. >> i need you tomorrow night.

2:33 am
actually shoot anyone and i say that only because it appears that he did have ample opportunity of that and chose not to do that. >> reporter: now the weapon that he used was a modified rifle.22-caliber weapon and to be look like an ak-47. he stole it from his brother, his family unaware that he was taking the weapon but we're that at this time that he was troubled. the prosecutor said that they had talked with the family and they had information which really led them not to be surprised when they discovered his body, a victim of his own gunshot taking his life. >> such a shocking case. do we know why he would do it in public and feel the need to go to the mall and do this, nic? >> this is something authorities are not able to answer at the moment. they say this is clearly somebody they don't use the word depressed but clearly what they are talking about.

2:35 am
essentially created competition where there wasn't competition before. and, as a result, this choice and this competition, prices have come down. >> reporter: but privately there is concern. a stunning internal war room document created last week submitted to republican investigators and obtained by cnn details worries that when the website is up and running, there might be sticker shock and anger because the media attention will follow individuals to plan selection and their ultimate choices and, in some cases, there will be fewer options than would be desired to promote consumer choice and ideal shopping experience. additionally in some cases, there will be relatively high cost plans. meanwhile, the white house was once again on defense monday after other war room notes suggested the administration's request to consumers to call in to register for obama care wasn't really a way of bipassing the glichty healthy.gov website. why? the call centers and the website
2:36 am

2:37 am
temperatures are going to be a little bit lower and on the order of a quarter of an inch to maybe half an inch of rainfall associated with the frontal passage. then that ridge of high pressure moves in before another weather system moves in by sunday. now temperatures this morning not nearly as cold as they were yesterday morning. temperatures were in the 20s and 30s. yesterday in new york city, central park, 46. that was it. that was all the temperature was. we expect 50s for today and guess what what? as we go by wednesday, looks like temperatures expected in the 60s, even 66 for pittsburgh. so it looks pretty good. temperatures running about 5 to 10 degrees above where they should be but just wait. here comes that frontal system and will kick up the wind and drop the temperatures and produce some rainfall. >> thank you, karen. 37 minutes past the hour. one of the three men who survived a decade in captivity in a cleveland house is opening up about her harrowing interview.
