fly. >> some great acts of heroism. we will hear more about that in the newscast. police say the shoot are though is a 58-year-old white male. they believe he acted he alone, apparently shooting people at random inside that theater. there are multiple agencies including the fbi. they are all on the scene and the bomb squad checked the suspect's he vehicle. they detonated what they believe is a suspicious package in that vehicle. one witness described the screams that she heard coming from inside after the shooting. listen. >> whenever a whole bunch of girls started screaming, i came out of the movie theater saying that someone got shot. >> and of that, what did you do? >> we didn't know he what happened yet. so then we -- the guards came and told everybody to get out so we ran outside. then a lady right there was under a dress and there was
11:02 pm
blood everywhere. that's when we realized what was going on. so we ran here and went inside. >> did you see other people running? what did things look like? >> a lot of people running over here. >> a scary situation for a lot of people in that theater. for the very latest on what's happening there, let's bring in sergeant brooks david with the louisiana state police joins us now by phone. sergeant thank you for taking time with us. we know you're very busy tonight, this is an active investigation but what's the latest you can tell us about your investigation at this hour? >> the suspect's vehicle has been cleared. emergency services unit bomb squad has taken care of that vehicle. they are inside the theater right now, looking at suspicious packages in there. that the canine dog has alerted on. and once they clear that scene which should be a few hours, along with lafayette police
11:03 pm
department detectives and state police detective will enter that with the coroner and starts to investigate what took place inside. >> and last we heard during the pros conference the gunman's body and the victims, two of the victims, bodies were still inside the theater. is that the case? >> yes, ma'am. those bodies will not be removed until the coroner gives us the okay to move those. it is a crime scene and an active crime scene. so evidence is still inside there that we need to preserve and make sure this our case is wrapped pretty tight where we can give the family as many answers as we can. our hearts are just broke tonight and we want to protect the families. >> i want to ask about the
11:04 pm
victims, we understand that from an earlier news conference that one of the victims was released from a hospital one of the wounded. can you talk to us just about the latest count when he it comes to the wounded and the difficult task that your teams must make when it comes to these death notifications. >> yes, sir. governor jindal did go through the hospital to meet with the wounded. and he was actually there when one of the teachers got released from the hospital. he was here with a story of heroism. i'm sure we will hear more of that in days to come like you said. we're unsure of the count right now or if any more that have been released from the hospital. investigators are at the hospital speaking with the witnesses and the ones who were wounded. >> now we know you have identified the gunman. we only know that he is a
11:05 pm
58-year-old white male. at this stage, i understand you're not releasing the identification of the gunman is that correct? or can you give us more information about what you're learning? >> that's correct. we're not going to release any information on the suspect yet because we are sending agents out in the field to his residence to speak with his friends, family members, and we don't want them to find out through the media or our officers possibly getting hurt in the process of going to speak to them. he is we're keeping his identity quiet right now and in the next few hours and maybe sometime during the day tomorrow the name should be known. >> sergeant david just for my own clarification so i can understand so you're talking about suspicious items inside the theater.
11:06 pm
is this similar to what you found in the vehicle? could there be something active and live inside the theater? >> well we want to take precaution and public safety is our number one priority. there was pack back in there that the dogs alerted to and some other items, small items. we want itto make sure that those items are safe and that emergency personnel, when they do go into that he this are safe. >> and one other question, sir, when it came it that vehicle and the fact that you detonated something in there, what can you tell us about that something? do you have any information there? >> no i do not. our emergency service technicians, our bomb squad, they are now inside the theater. so i haven't been able to speak with them yet. in reference to the package that was in the car. >> have police yet made it to the gunman's residence, his
11:07 pm
apartment or his house? and are there concerns that that could be booby trapped? >> well it's always a possibility. and that's why we don't want to release any names yet. hopefully when our agents get there, they will be able to clear that scene and speak with family members and friends and find out more about this person and find out why he would have done something to tragic. >> sergeant david, one other thought comes to mind. i know that you, early on, made the point that this was a movie patron. so we are assuming this is a person who went to the movie theater, bought a ticket went into the theater, and sat down. is that what you're thinking and what can you make from that? >> that's correct. everything shows that he was watching the movie.
11:08 pm
and there are reports of him being outside. but all details that we know of right now show him in one theater. there are 16 different movie theaters in this building. he was in one theater and did not leave and went into the other. >> it is too early to speculate on pre medcation. premeditated premeditated. but it reminds me of the person in charleston where you have a person that went into a waited. >> just give us an update on the scene. how many officers federal, state, local. are people still milling about or have a lot of people gone home now? >> a lot of people have gone home. we have a hundred law enforcement officers here. probably still the same about from local, state and federal. a lot of the witnesses had come out to watch, have gone home.
11:09 pm
and obviously we have a large media presence. >> okay. we will leave it there for now. sergeant brooks david, we really appreciate you joining us tonight. thank you very much for your time. >> many people who were evacuated from that theater described hearing gunshot after gunshot. >> one witness who took off running when the alarm sounded spoke earlier and talked about seeing people who were wounded and bleeding outside that building. have a listen. >> >> we heard people screaming in the theater before the alarm and we didn't know what was going on. and we addhad a weapon to protect ourselves and so she took off and said i can't deal with this i'm leaving. so i sat done and went to see if i could hear or see anything and i could hear people screaming. so then the alarm went off. we took off running outside.
11:10 pm
as i'm running outsigh, i'm seeing people bleeding on the leg. shot. and i was just like, wow. >> the movie shown during the shooting was "trainwreck" the comedy. starring amy schumer. she took to twitter and wrote this. >> my heart is broken and my thoughts and prayers are with everyone in louisiana. >> this is nearly three years to the date when there was a deadly shooting in colorado. >> a gunman opened fire at a crowded screening of the batman movie ""the dark knight rises"", one of the deadliest mass shootings in u.s. history. >> and just week a jury found james holmes guilty of multiple counts of first degree murder in that massacre. the sentencing phase of his trial began this week and is
11:11 pm
expected to last just about a month. >> u.s. president barack obama admitted that the most frustrating part of his presidency has been the failure to tackle gun control. >> the one area where i feel that i've been most frustrated and most stymied is the fact that the united states of america is the one advanced nation on earth in which we do not have sufficient common sense gun safety laws. even in the face of repeated mass killings and if you look at the number of americans killed since 9/11 by terrorism, it is less than 100. if you look at the number that have been killed by gun violence, it is in the tens of thousands.

11:18 pm
are at the theater. a lot of people at the hospital. i did talk to some people who are in an ajaysdjacent theater. one of the teachers according to the authorities, the teacher pulled the fire alarm after she had just been saved by her friend who jumped in front of her to stop the bull fretet from hitting her. very remarkable story. i talked to some people who say when they walked out they saw someone covered in blood. the police interviewed them. they interviewed everyone on the scene at the time and i believe they are still conducting interviews right now. >> and we will continue -- we have more vel developments into the investigation into that shooting and now other news and u.s. president barack obama is on his way it a country eager to welcome homity son. mr. obama is flying at this hour
11:19 pm
to kenya. his father's homeland. where he still has family. he will be speaking at the global entrepreneurship summit. though he has visited the region several times before this is his first trip there as president. now, robin joins us from ethiopia where the president will be traveling to after his first stop in nairobi. let's first talk about the kenya trip. we know he traveled there a couple decades there to learn more about his heritage. can you just give us a sense of the affection the people of kenya have for the u.s. president? >> >> just a few days ago, it was exciting on the streets of nairobi. people were selling t-shirts spray painting mini bus taxis as well as paintings going up all over the city murals of president barack obama. everyone is cashing in on the obama mania that will hit kenya.
11:20 pm
people feel he is part kenyan. they are proud of what they say, he is the most powerful man in the world. they named cocktails after him. i believe one obamatini, from one bar, a martini with a twist. as well as tremendous excitement ahead of the prospects of his visit. global entrepreneurship and hailing a real new step for kenyans in terms of prosperity trade and the economy which has been one of the most powerful economies in east africa. >> the obamatini sounds like an interesting trip. there are a lot of security concerns whenever the u.s. president travels. the countries will be asking for more support from the u.s. to support the countries in the
11:21 pm
reej yp. what can you tell us about that? >> that's really why they are the lifrnl pins of security in this region. really hales from the region. so the first sitting president in history will also be representing the african union. ken whyya and ethiopia have a number of troops there. and tackling extremism together. and how the u.s. can lend a helping hand to the african union as well as what it can learn on the ground from troops fighting and have been fighting extremism in this region for years. especially here in ethiopia where we spoke to an adviser to the government yesterday. he said that the u.s. while they are forthing this new relationship and improved relations with each other, the u.s. can really learn from its regional partners and needs to learn from its regional partners
11:22 pm
before it can fight regional terror, as it were. >> we notice that mr. obama is talking about the human rights gay, lesbian and transgender, but those talks won't be welcome there, will they? >> i suppose that depends who you speak to. we is spoke to members of the lbgt community in kenya because they believe it is hugely important and there was so much excitement surrounding the recent supreme court ruling in the united states which allowed guy mare gay marriage. and that is gel foroal for many in kenya who are approving of gay rights. we have heard from as high up as the deputy president saying obama's gay talk as they call it won't be welcome in kenya. that he shouldn't do it. he spoke about it before on the
11:23 pm
continent. he spoke out quite strongly. and of course if asked about it it is doubtful that president will shy away from an issue that reportedly according to national security advisers, he feels very strongly about. >> okay. we have to leave it there for now. robin kril? ethiopia. thank you very much for your reporting. we appreciate it. government is hoping mr. obama will announce greater is you support for counterterrorism as well as al shabaab. they are calling for the president to condemn abuse carried out by the very same agencies. but it isn't just al shabaab. cnn is told a few of their own relatives left the country to join isis. >> i'll not skip from this place. >> this is the first time she's been back to greek university
11:24 pm
when al shabaab burst into her dorm. >> i was bleeding and my leg was bleeding. and oh, now i'm shot. >> so much as she remembers it. paddle lock dorm door blocking their escape. mental sheet fencing torn to the ground by government tanks. as the government battles domestic radicalization and concerns over the border there are global implications. and al shabaab is no longer the only threat. people here are really scared to talk. one father agreed to tell us his family's story but said he wouldn't appear on camera because he just doesn't trust that government can protect him. he says that his son and nephew both travel to sir why to join isis. the nephew left in 2013 via sue did not and year later was able
11:25 pm
to send money back here to the cousin for this man's son, to follow on. there are no numbers for kenyan youth joining isis but the government is concerned. >> it is an issue of concern for the government and an issue that we have special level of community to ensure that we sensitize them. >> first they have it trust the government. this is surveillance video from the center of town. it appears to show 26-year-old sitting behind a cash register. in a video, man grabs him. both hands are behind his back. the camera trained on the front of the shop shows the moment he is led away cuffed in broad daylight. his family said this footage is the last time they saw barry. they believe he was taken by the
11:26 pm
kenyan antiterrorism police unit. atpu. suspected of beg aing a terrorist. a charge they deny. his brother tells us i foal a lot of pain. al shabaab killed one of himy brothers and the government took my younger brother. we don't know where to run. >> if people disappear and they believe they could be held by atpu report to the police there are many officers of government who they can report to and action will be taken. >> as the country prepares for the u.s. president's his toektoric visit, kenya is hope fog are greater cooperation between the two countries. with it becomes greater scrutiny. one thing is clear, she refuses to allow what happened here to define her for any longer. >> at first, leaving this area i thought i would never and just
11:27 pm
end here and my dream was shattered. but actually now i think i'm somewhere, i'm heading somewhere. i want to be someone in life. >> cnn, northern kenya. >> still to come isis takes another hit, launching air strikes and militants inside syria as the u.s. is given the green light to access a key military base inside turkey. stay with us. you're watching cnn. the mercedes-benz summer event is here. now get the unmistakable thrill... and the incredible rush of the mercedes-benz you've always wanted. but you better get here fast... yay, daddy's here! here you go, honey. thank you. ...because a good thing like this won't last forever. see your authorized dealer for an incredible offer on the exhilarating c300 sport sedan. but hurry, offers end soon. share your summer moments in your mercedes-benz with us. ♪ while you're watching this i'm hacking your company.

welcome wack to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. we continue with breaking news out of louisiana where two people are dead after a gunman
11:31 pm
opened fire in a movie theater and the gunman also killed himself. so a total of three dead. here is what we know from police from the city of lafayette. >> so the first call came in around 7:30 p.m. local time. the shooter is identified as 58-year-old white male. seven people are injured and three people are dead including the gunman. >> police say the shooter, as we mentioned, died of a self inflicted gunshot wound and we are hearing three of the victims at this hour are in critical condition. one theater goer spoke to cnn about what she saw last night. listen. >> i was across the hall from the theater the shooter was in. >> and what did you hear? >> we were just watching movie and the sirens went off and lights came on and we exited through the back door. when we were outside we heard three shots. not very loud but we heard three shots. we were like what was that. when we walked around to the front of the theater there was a
11:32 pm
woman on the front, she had been shot in the leg, i believe. she was bleeding and that's about all we saw. >> this comes almost three years to the day after similar deadly shooting at a movie theater in aurora aurora colorado. 12 people were killed and 70 other wounded when a gunman opened fire in a crowded screening of the batman movie, "the dark knight rises." >> we talked with brian about the reaction to this shooting. >> reporter: obviously whenever something like this happens at a movie theater, it does affect the industry and does great concern and questions about security. you are describing aurora three years ago. it has become one of those atrocities where you just say it with one word aurora. it really shocked the conscious of the country three years ago because so many were killed in such a usually happy
11:33 pm
entertaining place. that's what is so unique bay crime that's committed in a movie theater. people go there believing they are safe enough to sit in a dark theater with strangers to be entertained. sometimes seeing violence on screen but knowing they are safe there. i think once again people will especially coming hours and days wonder are they safe when te go to the movie theater. the short answer is yes. obviously for the most part when we see crimes like this they are the exception not the rule. and in the aftermath of the arer why massacre we did not see a big downturn in ticket sales or change in people's movie-going habits. there were changes to security in the wake of aurora. maybe we will hear about that again in the wake of this mass shooting in louisiana. there were more guards and checks. we didn't see a change in the
11:34 pm
way theaters operate. many changes were implemented quietly. theaters did not want it publicize them. i have the feeling we will see some of the same reaction to this most recent tragedy. >> at this hour investigators are taking inventory of that crime scene. we will of course stay on top of the story and bring you the latest and get you updated as we get any more information about this shooting in a u.s. movie theater. just a few hours ago, turkey's air force bombed isis targets in the country of syria. the turkish officials say fighter jets hit three isis locations in a village one kilometer or less than a mile away from the turkey syria border. this is just a day after militants opened fire on a turkish unit killing a soldier. >> close to getting information about key locations about air strikes involving isis. the countries have a final agreement bp barbara starr has the details.
11:35 pm
>> reporter: u.s. officials say there is a handshake agreement between the united states and turkey for the u.s. and coalition to have access to bases in turkey from which they can launch air strikes against isis in syria and iraq. key on the list is access to an air base in turkey. if the deal with be finalized, this would cut down the time essential for for u.s. warplanes trying to strike targets in sir why and isis strong hold. it would be a much shorter flight time than the current one they have to have from iraq or the persian gulf. the only places that they can fly these lethal missiones from into targets in north irn syria. but the deal has to be finalizeed. both militaries have to work out the details. how it will happen. what kinds of missions will be flown. whether the u.s. will be able to fly missions in support of the
11:36 pm
kurds that that consideration troubles the turks quite a bit, we are told. so still not a final deal. the ink is not dry on all of this. there could be changes. but if it could be agreed to there is a significant step forward officials say for the coalition effort against isis. barbara starr, cnn, the pentagon. >> let's bring in cnn producer who is in istanbul turkey, joining us live by phone. thank you so much for taking your time to chat with us. so the question that many people are asking and you heard in barbara starr's report that the ink is not yet dry on this potential agreement. but if the united states is able to base within turkey how significant is that change in the fight against isis? >> turkey is a very geographically important place for the fight against isis.
11:37 pm
but turkey itself has been having to deal with isis terror in its own country as well. and we saw a reaction from the turkish military just recently just hours ago, turkish fighter jets took off from a southeastern turkish air base and hit isis targets inside syria, taking out three isis targets. two of them isis bases. and one place that's been described as a gathering place for isis ammunition. the operation is concluded but turkish officials are not ruling out the possibility that they will carry out more targeted attacks against isis. so they are saying that they're committed to preserving turkey's national security interests there. and turkey targeting isis inside syria comes just a day after isis militants opened up fire on a border patrol unit on the
11:38 pm
turkish syrian border killing one soldier and this is a response to that and turkish officials described it as being a preemtive defensive mesh you're making sure there are no more casualties from the turkish side. the fighterer jets took off and they flew along the border and used guided missiles it take out these targets. whether or not this means we will see an escalation in turkey targeting isis attacks in syria is unclear at this moment. but the isis attacks in turkey are pushing the country towards a more -- a more strong position within the coalition and we'll see what comes up and what develops over the next couple of days in terms of turkish military akction in syria. >> and you talked about, we will
11:39 pm
see he what happenes with that country, stepping up in this fight against isis. and again, you know depending on whether the united states is able to base there, that will have a significant impact. but we've heard of taking the syria. as you see it escalate do you see the impact? >> turkey has been a reluctant partner in some ways because there is a concern that taking action against isis could mean a retaliation within turkey's borders by isis. and turkey is leery of the forces fighting just on the other side of their border kurdish forces fighting against isis because turkey also used the kurdish fighting force over
11:40 pm
there a a terrorist threat. because it is an offshoot of the kurdish worker's party which turkey has been waging a bloody war against for more than 30 years. so whether or not the dynamics of the situation that turkey finds itself in was the kurdish workers party on the one side and isis on the other side and whether or not the threat of isis will supercede the threat that turkey from the party will remain to be seen and it will be in the coming days that we figure out where turkey has taken a stronger stance against isis and the fight against them in syria. >> cnn producer on the phone with us live from istanbul turkey. gul, thank you so much for your reporting from the region. well stay in touch. to see how this plays out with this you know partnership, with air bases there in turkey. the u.s. defense secretary made
11:41 pm
an an unannounced visit to iraq thursday. ash carter met with iraq's prime minister sunni's leaders and commanders. they talked about isis and anbar province and its effort to retake that key city of ra maddiemad ramaddi. a man identified only by his sir name lee ambassador was the threat. lee allegedly made the threat in a post on the white house website in mid july. he was arrested in seoul own july 16th. ambassador lip ert was attacked in march by a knife-wielding korean nationalist. he was cut on his hand on his face and he has since made a full recovery. >> you are watching cnn newsroom. we will take you next to the
