breaking news overnight as more violence erupts in ferguson, missouri. good morning, everyone, we're so grateful for your company. i'm christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell, live in ferguson, missouri, for this early special edition. we want to welcome our viewers in the u.s. and around the world. >> victor, good to see you this morning. >> likewise. >> we want to show you this video from just a few hours ago. a s.w.a.t. team in riot gear with gas mask, and armed trucks. pointing military-style weapons at a group of people gathered in the rain outside of a market and liquor store. this is in fergusson, this is the same store where police say

18-year-old michael brown is suspected of stealing $50 worth of cigars. a week ago this afternoon, by the way, had was gunned down, of course, by an officer with the ferguson police department. victor? >> yeah, let's look more at this video. the store was looted. that store that you're talking about. our affiliate knlv reports that about 200 protesters took to the streets early this morning. it started late friday. and they met about 100 officers. police reportedly say there was also at least one shooting at a nearby intersection with a victim rushed to the hospital. also, one officer, we're told, was hurt by a brick or rock that was thrown. waiting for an update on that officer's condition as well. but we also saw peaceful protesters continuing to demand answers about why michael brown was shot and killed. we have with us, cnn videographer, steven kastinbaum.

was behind the camera while this was going on. we've got ann cabrera here as well. and i want to start with you, steve. give us an idea, what happened over night into the early morning hours and what's the scene there like now? >> well, we just witnessed something that has been extremely tense throughout the night come to a conclusion. literally just two or three minutes ago, dozens of police officers, protected with heavy body armor, using armored trucks and heavily armed where we're at this intersection in ferguson. right by this convenience store behind me, overmy shoulder. that has been the flash point here all through the night. this started many hours ago, around midnight, the police came in in riot gear. and in large numbers. and they formed a line on the avenue here that goes right through ferguson. it's where all of the

demonstrations have been taking place for the last couple of days. and that is when a tense standoff began between a few hundred protesters and these police. it began earlier in the evening as a very peaceful demonstration. the overwhelming majority of people who are here throughout the evening were here peacefully, demonstrating. they brought their children out. at some times during the night it even took on the air of a block party. there was music we saw. a drummer and dancers out here. but as the night wore on, there are a few people in the crowd who were obviously intent on expressing hel ining themselves ways. we did see several molotov cocktails were thrown on the roof of a dominos pizzeria. the fire department came in able to put out the flames according to the our cnn crews there on the scene. and they did see evidence of

molotov cocktails. that resulted, of course in the police who had largely pulled away from here showing up in large numbers. they were here to provide any protection from destroyed property. outside the liquor store, the convenience store that has become a flash point. because this is where surveillance footage was originate where it was released from, that allegedly shows michael brown taking part in a robbery of some sort according to police. there have been some people in the crowd, a small number of people in the crowd, who have a feeling that the owners of this store bear some responsibility for character assassination in some ways of michael brown. and they brought their frustration here to this store. some point during the night while there were dozens of police officers protecting this shop, somebody in the crowd, an individual threw a bottle at police officers, we're told, by

several witnesses here. and that prompted another large response. that's when the police showed up in riot gear. hundreds of protesters rallied here. and there was a very tense standoff. police threatening to make arrests if people did not clear the street. they were ordering these protesters to get out of the street. they were not confronting them physically, there were about 75 yards away from them. but through their bull horns were telling them, if you do not get out of the street, do not stop blocking traffic, you're risk arrest. the protesters stood their ground. that's when a small number of young men, individuals, broke away from the main protesters. went towards a convenience store. and another shop. a family dollar shop on the other side of the street and broke into the stores and started looting. very quickly, people who live in this community and those who came to join these peaceful demonstrations died they weren't going to let that happen.

they ran to the front doors that had been broken down. they formed a line. they got people out of the stores. they told the looters to get out. and they stood their ground. they would not let looters go any farther. and those community residents, those protesters who stood guard, they tell me they don't even know each other. they just saw what was going on and they decided the right thing to do was to stop that. and for hours they were standing guard over the store ises broken into and looted and let no further mischief take place. again, just moments ago, we just witnessed dozens of heavily armed police officers in riot gear pulling out of here after a multiple hour standoff with protesters but again, no confrontation, no rubber bullets. no beanbags fired at the protesters. and the standoff here, while very tense, ended without any incidents between police and protesters. >> let's go to tom fuentes with that. tom, i remember specifically, an

image that we saw on wednesday night. of local police officers, or at least a local police officer, one with a weapon trained on the crowd and staring through the scope. i saw that same image again early this morning. but this time, it was a state trooper. so, tom, when captain ron johnson was brought in from highway patrol. that was expected to offer some change. now we see again the s.w.a.t. team, the riot gear and those officers looking through those scopes. >> well, captain johnson and the state police have done everything they can to put on a kindler, gentler show of police power in the area, if you will, that tried to stand down the heavy equipment and the people in combat gear. the officers to get ready for battle. however, at the end of the day, it is the responsibility of the police to protect life and limb and property for the people of

ferguson. so if that doesn't work. they have no alternative. it is not the responsibility of the citizens of ferguson to try to prevent looting or stand guard in front of the stores in ferguson. so, you know, the police are really in a difficult spot. captain johnson in a difficult spot. trying to do it as gently as possible so nobody can accuse the police as provoguing the riot. but at the end of the day, they can't stand by and watch other people hurt other people or loot them. it's their responsibility, like it or not. >> all right, tom. law and order has to be restored when there were reports of molotov cocktails being thrown and looting. ana cabrera is here since tuesday. you've seen the transition from response from the community and law enforcement. how is what we saw this morning different from what we've seen

earlier in the week? >> much different. even with the unrest that we've seen here in the morning. a much smaller number of people involved in that unrest. so it's still less of an intense situation than what we've seen, you know, as recent as wednesday night which seemed to be a climax of sort on the streets of ferguson with multiple things happen. tear gas, reported shots fired. molotov cocktails being thrown at police. there was way more of a clash on wednesday night than today. that's an important thing to emphasize. because as we've been talking to the residents here, they say you know, we do have pride in our community. and we need these stores. we need these shops. a lot of us aren't the ones doing it it's the ones that have come in from outside the community because it's a smaller, broader community. they don't have the same connection to this immediate area. >> and there's one thing to

consider, earlier in the week, i mean, people who were passionate about this issue, possibly could not have come here to ferguson because their kids have to get to school. or they have to get to work in the morning. this was a friday night and likely they had nowhere to go saturday morning. people who want to be here and were passionate about it, they came in on friday. we'll, of course, try to learn more about who exactly is coming into this community and the people who -- go ahead. >> and worth noting, as just pointed out, a lot of the people who dispersed some of these looters were community members themselves. >> yes, stood in front of that store. >> they said, no, don't do this here. we want to assemble peacefully, they have been tonight and overnight, integral in trying to disperse the unrest. >> ana cabrera, thank you very much. >> steve kastinbaum and tom fuentes, thank you. >> he's going to be out there

all morning for us as we continue to talk about what's going on in ferguson. meanwhile, u.s. air strikes are taking aim at isis. the planes are trying to get people away from the dam there. also a 2012 presidential candidate is indicted. we have full details on the other side of the break. stay close. [announcer] play close-good and close. help keep teeth clean and breath fresh with beneful healthy smile snacks. with soft meaty centers and teeth cleaning texture,it's dental that tastes so good. beneful healthy smile food and snacks.

14 minutes past the hour. thank you so much for being part of our morning mere. you know, rick perry is on the defense this morning. he was just indicted on two felony counts but the texas governor says the accusations are politically motivated. our national political reporter peter handy breaks this down for us. >> christi, texas governor rick perry was indicted friday by a

state grand jury as part of his ethics inquiry to get a local district attorney to resign this year. perry was indicted on two counts, abuse of power and another count called coercion. it stems from perry's part to try to get the district attorney to resign after she was arrested for drunk driving in austin. lundberg also ran the state's state publicly committee. that through a complaint from a leftist group. special prosecutors spent months finding with thesness to testify 0 a federal grand jury. perry will appear in an austin courtroom as early as next week and may actually have to get a mug shot. perry's attorneys said the veto

threat was clearly within his authority. the politics of this, of course, fascinating, perry is only in office for another few months. there's a high profile campaign to replace him this fall and this will surely be there. perry is headed to new hampshire and sk. in the coming weeks republican activists, it's a safe bet that perry will try to turn the party on its head calling it a political witch hunt in austin. after he tries to recuperate his image after the embarrassing loss in 2012. from war zones in afghanistan to the streets of ferguson, missouri, a lot of people are wondering how is that police department so well-equipped it seems. well, we're taking a look at the military-style equipment that is taking and making its way into

police departments not just in ferguson, but across the country.

also breaking overnight, u.s. air strikes took aim at isis terror targets in iraq. this is according to kurdish news agencies. u.s. and iraqi forces, though, are trying to drive the islamic militants from iraq's largest hydroelectric dam, that's mosul dam, in northern iraq. as the u.s. continues to flee the isis advance, isis fighters swept into a village in northern iraq yesterday. and officials tell cnn, they killed at least 80 men and took

at least 100 women captive. anna corna joins us live. anna, thank you for being with us. what do you know about the air strikes that are said to be going jon. >> you know, we've got confirmation that the air strikes are under way. u.s. and iraqi air strikes. but on top of that, obviously, like you mentioned, local media reports say it's happening and isis is being tan out and struck. being described as the peshmerga forces the most intense of the campaigns since isis began. it's the largest hydroelectric dam in iraq. it was seized by militants earlier this month. it's considered to be rather

unstable, christi. the army corps of engineers assessed it as the most dangerous dam in the world because its built on sand. so it required a great deal of maintenance. they have to pump grit into the lower layers of this dam to keep the foundation stable. so the concern was, it would break or that isis militants would blow it up. in which case, mosul would be flooded. the second largest city in iraq, as well as baghdad. but certainly, that operation is under way. and obviously, we'll bring you more details as we get them, christi. >> anna, help us understand the significance, too, in this respect. if they are in control of that dam do they also then have the ability to cut off electricity to people in the region? >> reporter: well, we haven't done any reports that they actually did that. but there was concern that he would rob the dam, which obviously would have caused an

absolute disaster in what is already unfolding. but certainly, peshmerga force, now on the ground battling those isis militants. we have to remember that while isis controls one-third of iraq, they're also extremely spread out in u.s. air strikes targeting the key positions around the dam, according to eyewitnesses, the militants are retreating. which mean that's peshmerga move in and hopefully gabe control of this particular facility, christi. >> you know, a lot of people wonder where isis gets their money. as i understand it, they've seized critical oil feeds as well as the mogul dam. is that where you're getting, as i understand it, millions of dollars from those oil fields? >> reporter: look, i think as far as their resources, they may have taken over some pretty big cities. for example, mosul back in june. you know, the second largest

city in iraq. so with that they have cleaned out the banks, they've taken the weaponry from the iraqi military is, of course, is u.s. weaponry and obviously the guns. and of course, also have benefactors and people who are fund-raising there their reign of terror throughout iraq. but it's certainly causing, you know, so much fear and concern within iraq the last few days, christi. we've been covering the humanitarian disaster from very close to the syrian border. and we've been going to the u.n. refugee camps which are absolutely dire. you know, it's a dust bowl. it's excruciatingly hot. and there are families with many, many children who have fled these isis militants, wondering what is going to be

their future. we talked to the governor yesterday who said that he is completely overwhelmed. he cannot feed all of these people. and he's appealing to the united nations and the international community to come to his aid. if not if they don't get on the ground now, his fear is that, the children who are of course the most vulnerable will start to die, christi. >> all right. and real quickly, if i can get this in, tell us what you know about this village that isis fighters overtook and the 100 women that they kidnapped. >> reporter: yeah. absolutely. horrific story that one is becoming way too common. we got word yet today from the kurdish regional government that isis militants had seized the couldn't of kojo which is 20 kilometers where people fled the isis militants. this particular village. they moved in, they executed 80

men. that is what we're hearing from one survivor who managed to get away and contact the senior yazidis here in kurdistan. he also said that 100 women, 00 women, were taken to northern iraq which is part of the area, now controlled by the isis militants. he said they're being taken away to be slaves and to be sold. christi, this is a story we're hearing much, much more of as they continue to take over the towns and villages, dividing and conc concurring. this is obviously a psychological tactic. the yazidis say we're coming here, they're taking our women, using them as sex slaves and trying to exterminate us. >> anna coren, thank you for coming to that region. we appreciate it. we want to talk about the other big story today that has been in the news for some time

now. the unrest in ferguson, missouri. victor, a little different here, visibility a victor is there today. hi, victor. >> hi, christi, it's been a week since michael brown was shot and killed here in ferguson. it's intensified. one person shot, reports of that. and also molotov cocktails. you're going to see and hear about it from a producer who watched it all go down. stay here for this special new edition of "new day saturday." let me get this straight... [ female voice ] yes?

lactaid® is 100% real milk? right. real milk. but it won't cause me discomfort. exactly, because it's milk without the lactose. and it tastes? it's real milk! come on, would i lie about this? [ female announcer ] lactaid. 100% real milk. no discomfort. come on, would i lie about this? frommy family and is to love ice cream. however some of us can't enjoy it without discomfort. so we use lactaid® ice cream. it's 100% real ice cream just without the lactose. so now we all can enjoy this favorite treat.

bottom of the hour now. good morning to you on a

saturday. we are grateful for you who are watching us here in the u.s. and around the world. i'm christi paul. nick valencia is here with the five things you need to know for your knew day. hi, nick. >> good morning, christi. number one, u.s.-led military operation is under way to retake iraq's largest hydroelectric dam from isis militants. u.s. warplanes have struck near the isc mosul dam. and mma fighting, joan than koppenhaven, he's been arrested in simi valley, california, accused of brutally beating his girlfriend last week. koppenhaven's accusations have been widespread condemnation from the mma community. number three, three people have been arrested with the kidnapping of amish girls wednesday. the girls had been selling

vegetables by their family farm when they disappeared. an amber alert has been issued but officials said they had been found safe. the girls were able to provide details that helped make the arrest. number four, kent brantly, one of the two american ebola patients said, quote, he's looking forward to a reunion with his wife and family. and asking people to pray for the ebola victims in west africa. this was the scene in oakland, california, last night. what started as a peaceful march to denounce the shooting death of michael brown in ferguson, missouri. quickly escalated to a scuffle between police and protesters. police in riot gear used what appears to be pepper spray. some windows broken at least one police car was vandalized but for the most part, the activists

were peaceful. in ferguson, missouri, things were active overnight in the morning hours, we've got a big team there. victor blackwell anchoring the coverage. victor, brings up on the latest. >> nick, thank you very much. here in ferguson it was return to the unrest that we actually saw earlier in the week. and that many hoped was over. overnight looters targeted the ferguson market where michael brown allegedly stole the gars that you heard a lot about in the minutes before he was shot and killed by that officer named daryn wilson. let's bring in shimon who witnessed the looting there. shimon, describe the scene. i was there earlier in the day spoke with the with them. and there was a fear. >> yeah, there was. they boarded up entire store. several looters, basically

several stores they want to, one of a duty supply shop and then they concentrated on the convenience store. they went inside, they broke through the door. there was a wood panel, they sort of tore down the wood panel. they then went into the store, several of them, i could see several of them taking items out. you know, the store is okay. certainly, a lot of the stuff is out of there. they took soda and some food. people were just taking whatever they could out thereof. and then what happens was other people who claimed they were not looting, went in there and sort of pulled the looters out and started guarding the store, preventing any other looters from entering the store. so you have sort of two various groups there. you know, one group wanting to loot. then another group saying, hey, you can't do this. but then the looters went on to other stores and several other stores were looted as well.

you know, the attorney, jake hansler for the family that owns that store. i spoke with him yesterday, and during his press conference actually, he tried to reiterate, that the family, the store is not part of the investigation. he says they didn't even call the police after that alleged strong arm robbery, that were asked to give up that surveillance video, and they did. there were a lot of police officers there yesterday. shimon, what was the police presence like at the time of the looting? were they nearby, were they close? >> well, it's shocking. they were really close. and one of the things that i certainly found shocking, they stood back. i'm not even entirely clear they knew what was going on. they were about a block away. it took some time for a police helicopter to get up. so they just stood there. i mean they -- a couple of times when the protesters would come into the street, they would get on the megaphone and basically threaten them and say if you don't get out of the street,

you're going to be arrested. but when it came tyime to the looting, there was not one police officer anywhere near the stores. the looters were free to go in the stores. they went in, they broke through glass and doors and took whatever they wanted. we saw two guys carrying a huge -- i mean huge like industrial-size saw out of one of the stores where there was some construction going on. so the police just stood by and waited for things to calm down. and eventually, they turned around and left. >> we'll talk about law enforcement experts throughout the show about the west way to approach a scene like this, shimon prokupecz, thank you for your reporting and we'll check back with you in the next hour. let's go to christi in the studio. >> all right, victor, thank you so much. they are making a rapid, brutal advance across iraq right now. seizing territory along along the way.

the power behind isis. where is it coming from? the answer might surprise you.

you know, some of the most striking images of the early ferguson protests. a lot of people homed in on the military-grade tanks and assault rifles being taunted by a small police force. brian todd got on that, and he reports that kind of scene is becoming much more commonplace across the country than you might think. >> reporter: men in kevlar vests

and helmets, camouflage, carrying automatic rifles, moving in tactical armored vehicles. these aren't american troops on the battlefield but police in ferguson. one observer said he thought he saw police in an m-rap. >> it's built to with-stand armor pierces bombing this is not something that we need in communities. >> reporter: but cara dansky said more than 5,000 m-raps have made their way into america in the fast few years. what's part of what the aclu called an excessive militarization. police in these areas are getting much of this combat equipment free of charge from the pentagon. the defense department says just in 20 clean, more than $450 million worth of military equipment was given to law enforcement. a defense official said ferguson police only got a couple of

humvees and a trailer. but police departments throughout missouri assisting in ferguson got 20 m-raps and hundreds of m-16 rifles in recent years. critics say often when they get these weapon, policemen's attitudes change. >> increasingly, the police are trained to view the people in the communities that they're supposed to be protecting and serving as enemies. >> reporter: it's not just their possession of all of this equipment that's an issue. washington dog groups say many of these police departments lack the training and how to use these weapons responsibly. and that often escalates the dangers. dangers like police overacting when serving search warrant. >> they will go to people's homes, holding assault rifles. yelling at people get on the floor. we've seen in situations like this people are traumatized and sometimes killed.

>> reporter: but criminals have increasingly more fire power. >> if people are looting and committing other violent acts then the police need to support themselves. >> reporter: while it would take four to six weeks in unending hassle and documentation to secure a passport as reported by "the washington post," your local police only need to fill out a one-page form for a carrier. brian todd, cnn, washington. >> if you have questions about ferguson, the situation unfolding there, the tactics being used, anything, tweet us using the #fergusonqs. and we'll get questions to the panelists throughout the day. meanwhile, as we've been talking about the rapid advancement of isis through iraq. it seems that the power behind them may just be too much for that area to be able to overpower. how much does the u.s. have to

be involved here? we'll talk about that in a moment. th fresh with beneful healthy smile snacks. with soft meaty centers and teeth cleaning texture,it's dental that tastes so good. beneful healthy smile food and snacks.

47 minutes past the hour and welcome to you. well, they are brutal. they are powerful, they're rich and they are growing. overnight, more u.s. air strikes targeted isis in iraq. the militant group, it really shocked the world by sweeping control of town after town in

iraq and in syria. and a lot of people are wondering how have they had so much military success? how are they so well-armed? well, they may have the united states in part to thank for that. andrew table ises with now, a ceo fellow with washington institute. andrew, thank you so much for joining us. explain that to us, first of all, how are they so well armed? >> well, first of all, they captured a lot of weapons from united states in iraq. the reason they're so powerful, they're self-sufficient. at the moment, they don't require a lot of outside funding. and they're able to take advantage of the perception in the region that actually they're defending the sunni cause against iranian-backed regimes in baghdad. and they're rolling sunni lives into their lives. >> essentially the obama administration needs to decide whether to arm the peshmerga so

they could stand a chance against this group that is using u.s. weapons. is that smart to do put nor u.s. weapons into the hands of peshmerga? >> if you want to defeat isis, you're going to have to work with groups like the kurds to keep isis from going back into those areas. the harder issue is what to do in places like syria, where the regime is extremely brutal. the assad regime. the country is majority sunni. and we don't really have any sunnis there that we can support very easily. so that's where the united states is trying to look for options, and look across the border in iraq for options as well. >> so what other options are there, in your opinion, other than supplying weapons? >> i think at this point, diplomacy isn't going to do much good. i think perhaps security coordination to try and contain it. but unless you deal with the problem from the ground up. and this is where i think

american policy has been, you know, a big challenge. we're not going to be really dealing with this. and we're not going to be rooting out isis permanently. we're at best going to be containing it and putting off the problem until later. >> when you talk about diplomacy, we know that a big part of that depends on what happens with the government in iraq. we know that maliki just resigned. do you think that isis is going to see a new government in iraq as an opportunity for them? or is it more of an opportunity for the u.s. and nations to come together with iraq and help try to fight isis? >> it's more of an opportunity for the united states. because at that point, then the new government can reach out to the sunni tribes that are in western iraq and eastern syria. and say, look. you know, we can work with you. at that point, the tribes can make that decision. until now, they have said that the al maliki government doesn't support us. we're ostracized so we're going to join us up with isis.

it's the an opportunity for the united states but i think it's going to take a lot more than limited strikes and that's the point that the white house is trying to grapple with. >> how do you think the sunnis will be to the new government? they're so much distrust at the root of everything here? >> i think it will be more limited than you think. of course, it would depend on the package that's offered. but, you know, for us, we see iraq as a civil war. not necessarily that the war in syria is a civil war. but the people in the region, it's something else. it's not about the regimes but also spreading the sunni influence. and i think until you address that, it's hard to get sunnis to work together with governments in baghdad that are backed by iran. that's the conundrum we're in at the moment. >> people understand with the u.s. helping in that regard. but there are a lot of people who fought and died at the iraq

war and they're looking at this now and wondering was it all for nothing. how is fighting isis different than, say, fighting al qaeda, or the fighting that they did already in iraq? >> fighting al qaeda, it was -- well, it was of course, important for after the strikes on 9/11. and the strike on the homeland. what we have in terms of isis. a durable safe haven. the safe haven isn't going away soon. unless you deal with that, threat of attacks in europe, the united states and elsewhere go up dramatically. i think those who fought in the iraq war have every right to be critical. but i think they also can be critical of the administration for not doing basic maintenance. making good decisions, concerning our deployments, as well as our political commitments of iraq in the region. i think that's what the debate, and you've seen the debate in the media currently came from. >> how early do you think the u.s. should have had isis on their radar?

where did we miss the boat here? >> we missed the boat because they transplanted themselves across the border from syria and metastasized in a very chaotic environment that we didn't want to get involved in it. we and many people called it someone else's civil war. well, sometimes, terrorist groups can take advantage of someone else's civil war. because we didn't deal with the groups earlier in syria, in any kind of comprehensive way, then we allowed isis to fill up that vacuum. it's hard to go back in time and say we should have or could have done something. but in this case, i think what we can say is that american policy, until now, did lead to a certain extent to the creation of this safe haven. and get is now, how are we going to deal with it. >> all right. andrew tabler, i always appreciate your insight. thank you for being with us, sir. >> my pleasure. okay, folks. brace yourself, hot

temperatures, especially for atlanta. you're living up to your hot-lanta moniker there. it's going to be brutal today. we're hoping it's better for the rest of you wherever you are. we'll give you insight into what your day is going to look like weatherwise. stay close.

are you looking for maybe to go outside and get a good tan today? come to hot-lanta. jennifer gray in the weather center and apparently, we're living up to our name today. >> yeah, we are. you know we're only running two

degrees above normal. normal is 88. we're running at 91 for tomorrow. when you factor in the humidity, that's where you really start to notice. we have the high humidity levels and moisture from the south and it's really making us feel warm all across the south, all the way down into florida. that's what we're dealing with over the next couple days across the south with really nice days for the work week. especially through next week, we're going to continue the warming trend. 90s for the weekend. we'll have a brief break for monday. it will continue to warm for next week. look at jacksonville, mid-90s by sunday into monday. same with charlotte, memphis, new orleans, same trend. lower to mid-90s, as we go into the middle part of the week. look at these humidity values. we're going to see ♪ 60 percentile. atlanta, 81%, relative humidity in savannah. 84% in orlando. so relative humidity really up there. the moisture just pumping in to

the south. that's going to make your temperatures feel warmer. make sure you hydrate when you're heading outside. make sure you try to stay cool. the focus today really is going to be in portions of the midwest. especially from kansas city to st. louis. we're going to be looking at the possibility of possible storms. the bulk of the rain right now to the north of st. louis, but we do have that warm moist air that's pulling in from the south. so that's going to produce possible heavy rains, possibility of gusty winds, large hail and storms we'll be watching out, christi, in those areas. >> hopefully everybody takes care there and that humidity, maybe a ponytail day tomorrow. >> to stay by the pool. something like that. hey, by the way, have you heard about this rock star picture, mo'ne davis? 13-year-old right-hander, just became the first girl to ever throw a complete game shutout in

a legal league world series. davis struck out eight batters in six innings. led her team from philadelphia to a dominant 4-zip over over nashville. athletes are praising her. dexter fowler tweeted props to mo'ne davis for dealing today. awesome performance. and kevin durant said, this youngster is striking everybody out and she is a girl. i love it. congratulations to her and the team, thank you for starting the morning with us. our "new day" special coverage continues right now. breaking news overnight, more violence erupting in ferguson, missouri. so glad to have you with us, i'm christi paul here in atlanta. >> i'm
