have movement and uncertainty. >> time has passed. if bahamians were hoping to evacuate or seek refuge, it's too dangerous to leave. there's no escaping dorian. ♪ >> this is "new day weekend," with victor blackwell and christi paul. >> we're following two breaking news stories. moments ago, we got an update from the national hurricane center on dorian. this is still a dangerous category 4 storm. it's headed directly toward the bahamas. can direct path for the u.s. is unclear. it has shifted west. we are watching the breaking news out of texas as people who were killed in a mass shooting,
2:02 am
that stopped at a traffic stop in odessa. this is a rampage that injured when the shooter is believed to be a white male in his 30s. the national hurricane center says dorian is extremely dangerous. let's get to our weather center. what did the 5:00 a.m. bring us? >> the biggest change is the change in the tract and where the storm will be headed. it is a very high-end category 4 storm. winds sustained at 150 miles per hour. but they are gusting up to 185 miles per hour. this is not good news for folks
2:03 am
in the bahamas. the eastern bands are creeping into the islands. winds are picking up and rain is starting to come down at a heavy pace. here's the latest hurricane hunter mission. this may be odd to you. they are flying into the storm. they are trying to find out the ridge of high pressure here. the biggest question we've had all along, is when does it make that turn to the north. is it shifting or going north, south, east, whatever. that will determine when the storm will make its trek to the north. that's has huge implications as far as florida and georgia. adding back some places in
2:04 am
florida that had been removed. the strength remains the same. we have tropical storm warnings for places like vero beach and west palm beach. the majority of the state is the hurricane warnings. when does the storm make that shift to the north? allison chinchar, we'll get back to you throughout the morning. thank you. we're watching the investigation that's going on this morning after violence in west texas. a shooting rampage started with a traffic stop. >> after shooting a state trooper, investigators say the suspect drove down the highway, randomly shooting other victims.

2:07 am
this started in midland, texas. midlands and odessa, separated by 20 miles. before the car came to a complete stop, the gunman was firing at them. in a couple of parts of deca, it is surreal to see the number of scattered crime scene areas that are roped off and taped off. police look for bullet fragments in parking lots in streets. that's not something we've seen before in a mass shooting of this magnitude. this is a shooting spree for some time, that had law enforcement officers urging people across the city to take shelter, to get off the streets immediately and not be outside. those warnings created fear in
2:08 am
the city. they tried to track down the suspect, which they did in odessa, in the back of that movie theater parking lot. the suspect took over a u.s. mail postal truck. one woman talked about what it was like to come face-to-face with the gunman. >> we heard a pop, pop, pop. it was loud. you could feel the percussion. is that what it's called? and i said to dan, i'm like, is that did that car just backfire?
2:09 am
>> you're okay. >> i looked over my shoulder. the gold car was picked up. he was there. and he had a large gun. and it was pointing at me for a moment. all i could think about was driving away really fast. there were two cars in front of me. i started to honk my horn and we got a little ahead of him, for whatever reason, the guys in front of us parted a little i aggressively made my way away from the gold car. and right when i did that, i heard three more shots. and the thing is, if i had not
2:10 am
looked over my shoulder, i wouldn't have seen it or reacted. >> you can sense there, so vividly the nerve-racking panic that many people faced in these moments in this shooting. in tehe end, 5 people dead, 21 injury ares. one of them district is in odessa public school student. and one of the injured is a 17-month-old child. air-lifted to lubbock and is in satisfactory condition. >> this crime scene stretches so far. typically, it's a location. a building. this went for miles. >> multiple crime scenes that they have to look at.
2:11 am
and so many people because of the breadth of the crime. there's so many people that witnessed it and are trying to reconcile that this morning. shooter was pulled over on an interstate. that's when he thought the officer and started shooting ran randomly. >> i was driving around. and i hear i got one on my door. and one ricochetted on my wrists. that's where my thanks i was driving. that's all i'm thankful for. all i got was a scratch and a little piece of metal in me. >> anybody who hears the sound of my voice, you need to grasp on to the loved ones and pray for this one and the families
2:12 am
and victims involved. n you need to hold on to them tomorrow. if you can hear my voice, give a minute to stop and hear the prayers of the victims of this tragic incident. >> we kept our microphones on. >> there's more officers in guns in here. i just saw them. this is still active. i saw deputies coming by with guns drawn. we don't know if there's someone in here. this is very active. i'm being told there's more active on the midlands facebook. we need to get details. we need to get out. we're going to keep our mics on. we're told to get out of here. >> noticed a lady on the ground in front of a car, a gold car.
2:13 am
the window was breaken out. i thought maybe she had been runned over. i put my car in park and i jumped out, thinking maybe she needed cpr. when i walked up to her, she was gone. the people who were huddling and crying, told me to go home because there was an active shooter still on the street. >> joining us tonight, law enforcement analyst, james galliano. we talked about shootings at outdoor festivals or entertainment complexes. what do you do to prevent something like this? >> we're in the wake of a
2:14 am
mind-numbing mass casualty incident. we've covered four in the last five weeks. all appear to have happened on weekends. to your point, this is a difficult one. because of the length, the space, the banded with ba bandwidth. police have to attempt to track down every round that was released from a rainfall or a pistol during that gun battle. and witnesses and victims need to be interviewed. you have to track the digital foot print type items. i think this is going to take some time at the federal level and the state level. certainly at the local level. >> one word that seems to be missing in all of this.
2:15 am
when we hear about any incidents that escalate, they often start with a routine traffic stop. we're not hearing that word, routine. do you get the sense that -- what does that tell you that that word is missing? >> i want to be careful. it's hard in the wake of these, to read too much into that. there is no such thing as a routine traffic stop. i felt more safer when i was lined up on a door with a s.w.a.t. team than making a traffic stop like uniform eed officers do. was this premeditated, leave the house, loaded for bear, and then
2:16 am
do something so police would be forced to pull him over. look to be pulled over to begin a rampage? or was this a spontaneous eruption of violence. a lot of people had weapons in their vehicles. did something trigger him to want to engage in a gun battle? that's the million dollar question right now. >> all right. james galliano, we appreciate your insight. thank you for waking up early for us this morning. the other breaking news, hurricane dorian, set to hit the northwest islands of the bahamas today. the storm preps are finished. the people who decided to stay are bracing for the beginning of what is described as a life-threatening storm. we have a live report. and the 5:00 a.m. update,

bahamas. specifically in abaco, where document and undocumented people reside. we walked through those areas with a blow horn, trying to send the message to the persons. no matter the nationality, they just want to evacuate and to get to higher ground and safe shelters on the island. a lot of people did not heed the warnings on the keys. >> i was listening earlier this morning. the window to leave now, if you wanted to try to evacuate, that's come and gone. they are stuck where they are. thank you so much for the great information. and do take care, you and your crew there. >> thank you for having me. and my condolences to america for what happened in texas, as well. >> thank you so much. appreciate that.

to the latest on hurricane d dorian and its projected path. meteorologist allison chinchar is in the weather center. what do we know? >> the tract is pushing back into florida. let's take a look at where the storm is now. we had heavy outer bands begin to bring rain in the bahamas. nassau is getting hammered with gusty winds and heavy rain. it's moving west at eight miles per hour. the conditions in the bahamas are going to deteriorate throughout the day today and stay that way through the next several days. the storm is expected to slow down as it continues its approach toward florida. here's the thing. this cone has started to expand inland across portions of florida. it never took florida out.
2:35 am
we want to emphasize that the track is starting to shift to the west, compared to previous model runs. right now, miami is not in the cone. some of the northern suburbs are. but west palm, melbourne, daytona beach are in that cone. and it takes the northward turn. where does it make landfall? does it get close enough to florida to make landfall there? or does it have to go farther north into south carolina or north carolina, before finally making a landfall. then, it starts to head back out to sea at that point. hurricane warnings for western florida. ten the blue color that was headed, tropical storm warnings across florida. we're likely to see those expand in the coming days as the storm approaches. >> allison chinchar, thank you so much.

2:37 am
freeport. we know where we're going to arrive. we have assets, like food. we will be bringing food and water with us. the bahamas have shelters in the north. hopefully we'll go there. many people on the island, in need of food and water. we are many chefs. and that's what we do. we believe that feeding one person at a time, we can sofl the issue. the amazing people behind me, they are in puerto rico. they were expecting a hit in puerto rico. thankfully, the hurricane moved north. and puerto rico is being saved.
2:38 am
almost getting ready. we thought the hurricane was going to go south to florida, almost going to the keys. we see it's moving north and east. you have the teams in florida moving north and also ready to answer to south carolina, north carolina. who knows, even north of that. we are helping people in the ba hamamas. even if everybody prepared for everything, it happens. we adapt to chaos and able to assist anybody that may be in need of food or water. that's what we do. we wait and keep moving.
