violence. meanwhile, new details emerge about the suspected gunman his allegiance to isis and criminal past. karl henhaul has been uncovering the latest details. let's go through all this we know about the suspect in these deadly attacks and about his friends who were arrested. >> reporter: before we go into that just want to bring you up to date on what is going on right now. the reason we are on the telephone is because the area where we set up the mission has been cordoned off in the last few minutes. we've been told to leave the equipment where it is and withdraw a distance of a few meters away. we were standing outside the cafe in eastern corp. that's where the 22-year-old gunman carried out his first attacks mid-afternoon saturday. and then this morning, as i say, just a few moments ago, police

have cordoned off the area around the cafe and moved to a safe distance. they say they have discovered what they believe may be some suspicious package. we've seen the police bring in a sniffing dog, a black labrador has combed through the area. been sniffing around. also we have seen another truckload of heavily armed danish police arriving on the scene, as well. police aren't telling us anymore right now. certainly the indications are that there's a possible bomb threat given that they've brought in the sniff inging dogs to the area and moving people back. hard to imagine how a suspicious package, have been place the at the cafe since it's been under police guard since even before saturday's attack. although this was the same area where some 40,000 danes flocked

to last night for a candlelit vigil to honor those killed in the attack on thursday. >> let's get back to the suspect then. we'll keep an eye on that part of the story you mentioned. the suspicious package. talk about all this we're learning about the suspect and friends who are also arrested. >> reporter: the 22-year-old gunman who was killed on sunday early is not morning, as he returned to a location in northern copenhagen the danish-born man of arab origin. we know this he had a passion for kick boxing. he had participated in amateur championship bouts. we understand from friends who are quoted in some of denmark's newspapers some of his former friends, that he was a fairly intelligence man with a short fuse. from police, of course we know

that only two weeks prior to the attacks he was released from prison. he was held on charges of attacking a commuter a 19-year-old man on a computer train in copenhagen. police say that the gunman had very much bon their radar because he a history of violence a history of weapons violations. they do say that there is no evidence that he ever trained with islamic factions in syria or iraq, and knew him for his link to some copenhagen gangs more really than to any radical ideology. as far as the two other men in police detention, we've been he told they are 19 and 22 years old. they were seized during a raid on an internet cafe and have been charged with accessories to two murders and with trying to

help the gunman hide the weapon and himself in the wake of those attacks right now. no further details on the men. they could be held for several weeks beforing there progress in this investigation. >> karl penhaul on the line. he had to move from the live shot leave his equipment because as we understand a suspicious package has been found. they think it may be a bomb. as a precaution people have been moved out. that is at the cafe where that attack took place on saturday. the northeastern part of the u.s. is weathersing it third norm in four weeks with more cold on the way. now the south is dealing with a big chill as well. >> states of emergency have already been declared in five states as well as over in washington, d.c. this as the southeast tries to handle the cold and unexpected weather. more than 1,000 u.s. flights

have already been canceled in participation of the storms, primarily in the east. one of the hardest hit areas in the northwest this season is boston. the city has already recorded almost 2.5 meters of snow this year. boston has seen so much snow this winter, it's finding it hard to find places to put it once it's removed from the streets. will ripley reports on boston's snow-removal efforts. >> reporter: you're seeing a herculean effort by the city of boston massachusetts to clear the streets in time for people to return back to work tuesday morning morning. the day after the holiday, a full workday for many. it is remarkable when you look at this. this is an empty lot in boston that's been transformed into what is called a snow farm. they bring the snow in huge trucks after scooping it up and dump is on what this is now a

mountain of snow. you see the size of it. it dwarfs the heavy construction equipment that they're using to then scoop the snow. let me show the size of one of the trucks that is bringing the snow in here. it is a stream of truck, truck after truck full of snow. they bring it to this machine here. this is called a snow melt erer. they dump the snow into the top. it has hot jets that melt the snow and the water comes out there. it's dumped into the sewer system. this machine has the capacity to melt 150 tons that is 300,000 pounds of snow every hour. yet, still that t's not enough to keep up with the demand. there's an incredible amount of snow that has fallen on boston. so much that it's crippled the city's transportation system. the transportation director saying that it will be 30 days of snowfall snowe-removal operations like this to get the buses and trains running back to

normal again. and that seasonal if another blizzard doesn't hit the city. what you're seeing here really quite an torte to clean up the result of three weeks, an unprecedented three weeks of heavy snow for the region. and the work continues around the clock. will ripley, cnn, boston. our meteorologist pedram javaheri joins us to tell us why exactly we're seeing so much snow in this part of the u.s. >> incredible amounts. not just boston maine to new hampshire have all seen historic amounts of snowfall. a recent study by the intergovernmental alal group for climate change they noticed there was a 71% increase in the northeastern corner of the united states for increased likelihood of precipitation. this is because the atlantic ocean next door was three degrees fahrenheit warmer in recent years which increases the water vapor in the atmosphere by 15%. that equates to you getting more

moisture within your storm. >> cause and effect. tell that to your friends who say global warming -- >> it looks like the pattern is favoring that area of the united states. a graphic to show what the study showed. notice the 71% highlighting the northeastern corner of the united states. moisture content and extreme precipitation events more than likely in the area. large-scale area with the exception of the hawaiian islands believe it or not would see the least likelihood there was heavy precipitation events in the negative category. that was the study from 2014. goes hand in hand with what's happening. since 1987 the top ten snowstorms in boston six have occurred since 1997. two have occurred this particular season. much the same for new york city. five of ten have occurred since 2000. here's what's coming down -- sleet, been that freezing rain. that is literally in the area in

pink charlotte around wilmington. travel nearly impossible across the region because of upwards of half an inch coming down there. here's the forecast in the way of snow accumulations. boston has 95 inches of snow this season. this would put it close to 100 if it pans out. it looks like at this point areas around washington have seen four inches. they could see another four before the next couple of hours across the region. quickly becoming one of the most memorable or unforgettable seasons. >> not looking forward to what's happen in the south. a setback for barack obama's immigration policy. a federal judge in texas has put a temporary hold on the president's executive order. >> this is a highly controversial issue in the u.s. let's get you the latest information here. the ruling doesn't mean the president's actions were necessarily illegal. just means a court will have to decide whether they are

with details. you got a big corporate spat between two rivals and security footage apparently key evidence. what's happening here? >> reporter: that's right, this is just the latest bizarre legal battle going on here in south korea. samsung has accused the head of lg's home appliance department of deliberating vanlizing four of their washing machine in a couple of shops in germany last year in september. that executive has been indicted on charges of property damage and defamation and two other second trifs facing charges at this point. lg says that they didn't deliberately damage the goods. they said they didn't believe they had done that, but they did pay for the machines. but they couldn't resist a little dig, saying in a statement that clearly had more to do with weak hinges than

anything else. samsung suing figure defamation as well -- suing for defamation as well. this is an ongoing legal battle between the two. you see the tv footage released by lg on to youtube. they say it's basicallyians showing they're in the right. shows executives opening the door. shows there were samsung employees in the shops around them. and they would have noticed if they had in fact had been deliberately damaging the washing machines. samsung is saying the footage was edited and shows lg's point of view rather than samsung's. this is an ongoing legal battle. mediation doesn't seem to have worked. looks like the courts will have to decide who's right. >> it's difficult for the rest of us to see who's telling the truth here. hopefully you think the customer benefits and will have washing machine with strong doors from

now. on inthe two companies -- i understand the two companies had legal disputes before that ended in a settlement out of court. since thins are still heading to court now, do you get an idea that settling out of court isn't possible? i wonder what the worst case scenario might be. >> reporter: these two companies have been at each other's throats before. they're arch rivals. in 2012, they had a very public battle about whose refrigerators are bigger. who had the best compassity in their refrigerators. they basically took this fight to ucube. both sides posting videos to show that their side of the argument was correct. now that one, as you say, was settled out of court. this one at this point doesn't appear as though it's going that way. samsung says that they actually have the unedited footage of that cctv footage that supports their point of view. but they say to release it would be inappropriate. so of course, it's very

difficult for me to say where this could go. we haven't seen all of the evidence. we're seeing the statements that both companies are putting forward to the public and media to put their point of view across. errol? >> our viewers can head to youtube where one of the companies posted their video to see it for themselves. paula hancocks live in seoul, south korea. past 5:20 there. thanks. ukraine's cease-fire agreement is threatening to collapse the diplomatic efforts to prop it up that are ongoing. our update next.

welcome back. with a delicate see threatened in ukraine, the leader of russia germany, and ukraine have agreed on ways to allow osce observers to monitor the situation. >> the u.s. state department has griffey concerns about the continued fighting especially around the strategic down. the ukrainian president is urging all pears to begin the withdrawal of heavy weapons under the control and verification of the monitors. the separatists and the ukrainians each accuse the other of violating the cease-fire. the fighting has been going on for ten months and it's exactsing a heavy toll. nick paton walsh joins us now from donetsk ask.

we know most of the fighting has happened in the town talk about how shaky this cease-fire is. >> reporter: here there snow steefr speak of all at frankly. we were -- well is no cease-fire to speak of at all frankly. we were here and ukrainians saying they couldn't go much farther down than the key village. one worker explaining how the road is covered in mines and shrapnel which, potentially shred the tires of a convoy, say, like the osce monitors who are still trying to gain access. they should have access as part of the minsk peace agreements. that is what was called. again today by the russian, french and german presidents. it hasn't happened yet. it may still be extraordinarily difficult. without the monitors getting into the city, it's going to be very hard to secure some drop in violence in the fight for it.

here's what we had saw yesterday. these ukrainian tanks have just come out of the besieged town. the road to it a one-way street to the grave, one said. we're following an aid mission to civilians caught by the fight in the supposed cease-fire. this is cursed to be an artillery range. the quiet former soviet union town caught in the crossfire. even no still with a supposed cease-fire, its people forced off the streets. underground, its homes reduced to rubble. yevgeny has brought the red cross food. >> maybe 2,000 will leave. i don't know. >> reporter: in the past culture of those who have nowhere or way to run. some underground for three weeks now. this man begs us for insulin.

the children show us mary ann. "i'm death," she cries. imagine only knowing the bombs are landing when the walls shake. you can hear still in this town shelling in the dance. unclear which way it's going. delve not the sound of a cease-fire. this used to be a hospital. now it's a woodshed and shelter. young dennis uses his fingers to try and show he's 2. it's scary, they all say. "i want to go home," he says. "the it's cold and uncomfortable." this is the bathroom for everyone. they fled three weeks ago. have no idea their hometown is rubble. they ask us what's happened to it as we saw the damage a week ago. "is the new church okay," they

ask. dasher is a dance champion. here they don't care who was shelling or why, just that it's stopped. [ applause ] >> reporter: on the highways above, hours away from when the heavy guns are men to be with drawing -- meant to be withdrawing, we saw ukrainian weapons headed the wrong way. it allowed the question what do you call a cease-fire when the fire hasn't stopped. it's quieter here in donetsk, but the cease was always to be the place where the cease-fire came unstuck. heavy weapons were being with withdrawn. there's no sign of separatists pulling back either. there are media reports suggesting that both sides think they control that key road down into the town which is a remarkably confusing situation frankly, for diplomats who have

to try and navigate this. at what point does the cease-fire have the rug pulled from under it and people stop calling it? that could be imminent. the monitors whose job to say effectively make the call their patience may run out eventually in terms of going along with saying the cease-fire is holding to a degree. i've heard from a european diplomat that a planned meeting with the key -- what's called trilateral contract group, that's the separatists, the ukrainian military and monitors was supposed to happen in kiev at 10:00. it's not going to happen. you clear quite why, but another sign that perhaps some of the sequencing the kind of infrastructure of diplomacy here is beginning to shred at the seams simply because of the violence around the town. and the fact that both sides don't seem to think that the cease-fire should hold water. back to you. >> diplomatic efforts still underway. not looking good for the cease-fire at all. nick paton walsh reporting from

substantially had its effect in degrading the capabilities of the terrorist organization. >> those air strikes are a response to the apparent murder of 21 egyptian christians by isis militants in libya. far away from theitional isis territory -- the isis territory in syria and iraq. >> it highlights the militant group's growing area of influence. as we report europeans are worried about where isis might expand next. >> reporter: islamist militants proudly parade through the streets. the isis insignia displayed on police vehicles. the isis flag waves over government buildings. now is not iraq or syria. this is libya. in november isis fighters took over the city of durna along the mediterranean coast. population 100,000. there are fresh concerns that isis' tentacles are creeping toward europe. >> the city is a couple hundred miles south of the southern

afloat without foreign support if nothing can be worked out? >> reporter: good morning. well, it depends who you ask. obviously if you ask one side of the argument like for instance the euro group meeting of eurozone finish ministers who have been grappling with greece for the last few days they say wednesday. so tomorrow is the detroit lion. another self-imposed deadline by the group by which time greece should have some kind of proposal in place. on the other hand who you heard before the finance minister, says nothing is achieved when they're facing an ultimatum. he says greece can buy more time to financially get its house in order and not necessarily to take on the weight of another bailout without more talks attached. the financial back stop expires at the end of next week. and europe feels if greece is continued to continue in the

eurozone without the financial backdrop its banks could see a run on banks, depositors taking out their assets. and that, in turn, could put greece in a situation where it spirals out of the eurozone. it depends who you ask. we still have until february 28th. the back drop to the talks seems to be getting increasingly acrimonious det despite the fact you heard the greek finance minister saying we're optimistic. he says that in a passive aggressive tone where he's saying we will get a deal done we hope but on our terms. >> what could be the points of compromise do you think, nina? >> reporter: there are certain suspense of contention including greece not willing to accept another financial package that comes with terms and conditions attach. austerity terms and conditions. the radical left wing government was elected to repeal. the problem so far is that the

current greek government doesn't want more money. they'd rather have a bridge loan to see them through in the short financial term and no conditions attached. i was mentioning before how the backdrop to the talks seems to have become increasingly acrimonious. one of the things the "financial times" visiting today is that the greek machines minister at one -- greek finance minister at one point, and this has happened twice over the last week, was selling to sign a paper put forward by some of the euro group members. then the paper was eventually revised to include clauses that would senate greece would adthey're terms and conditions put forward by the euro group,ous term terms and conditions over which they would have no say. that's when the negotiations seem to have broken down overnight. that is going to be the main point of contention. if somebody they can find some kind of compromise perhaps to extend it, it seems that the greeks may be happy with that as long as they have the overall

say over which austerity measure they have to implement. >> did. times for greece. we'll keep a close eye on this as you will also. thanks. this being called the real-life "shining" hotel. still to come, a young couple who are winter caretaker at an isolated hotel just like in the horror film.
