4:00 pm
odierno. that's all for today. have a great week. fox urgent. ambulance transports and people jumping out of the way at the grand prix in houston. a racing car driven by three-time indy 500 champion sailed into what's called a catch fin and some people could not escape. initially, three cars were entangled. you see it here. that triggered the disaster that then played out in the final lap. franchi's car went airborne. into the stands. at least 13 fans were hurt at this hour. an indycar official was hurt as well, but only three people had to go to the hospital. that is a blessing.
4:01 pm
franchiny, 40 years old, was also taken to the hospital. witnesses tell us he appeared to be moving around after the wreck, awake definitely. the owner of his racing team said he was sore, but alert. dominic, tell us more. >> just crossing the wires right now is that he's got two fractured vertebrae and a broken right ankle, also a concussion and will at the least, be staying in the hospital overnight. while the four-time series champion was complaining of back and ankle soreness. that seems to correspond with what we'hearing, but he seemed be awake and alert on the ambulance. he's quoted as saying when he was asked whether he was okay, the driver replied, i'm not sure. then a little information about
4:02 pm
the two spectators who were also taken to the hospital. but this is what one witness saw harris. >> when we got here, we saw the lady underneath the fence and then a gentleman came down and he was bleeding from his head and he was with a young girl and she was shaking. and she was really distraught, so it was upsetting to see that. >> horrified people looking on. also, the houston chronicle reporting accounts of a tire coming loose from the car and apparently, hitting the spectator cross over bridge and that landed back on the track. >> i understand that his car did in fact hit that catch fence, but from what i'm reading, it did kind of do it job. what are officials saying? >> they've got limited info. just hidden themselves in a meeting for two hours. a statement issued a short while
4:03 pm
ago -- saying the following. an indycar driver along with two fans were transported to the hospital. 11 fans were evaluated onsite. fran he is not the only, only an indycar series champ, he's also a three-time indianapolis 500 winner and for those who don't follow motor sports, recently divorced from ashley judd. >> thank you very much. also, new details are coming out about those two daring u.s. military raids on enemy hideouts. one ending in the capture of one of america's most wanted terrorists. the alleged master mind behind the 1998 bombings in africa.
4:04 pm
also, s.e.a.l. team six has targeted al shabaab, the same group that put a shopping mall under siege in kenya just two weeks ago. fox reports, just what did it take to hit terrorists, next. and -- >> the nation's credit is at risk because of the administration's refusal to sit down and have a conversation. >> we are happy to negotiate, but we want to negotiate without a gun to our head. >> to be tnight, tempers flarin capitol hill. one of america's most wanted fugitives is now in american hands while another is targeted in a separate raid. the man now in u.s. custody was wanted for the 1998 u.s. embassy bombings in kenya and tanzania. he was caught in a dramatic
4:05 pm
operation outside his villa, we're told, in libya. multiple sources say he's being held on a ship at sea. we don't know his status tonight, but are working to get more information. s secretary of state john kerry remarking on what's happened. >> we hope that this makes clear that the united states of america will never stop in its effort to hold those accountable who conduct acts of terror and those members of al qaeda and other terrorist organizations literally can run, but they can't hide. >> national security correspondent jennifer griffin is live from washington. where is al libi being held tonight? that most wanted fugitive, and what happens nec to him?
4:06 pm
>> it's a great question. we're just getting breaking news in here as to the target in the somalia raid. he's a kenyan of somalia orgin by the name of ecrema. i'm told by two u.s. officials he was wanted for the 1998 u.s. embassy bombings in east africa as well as the 2002 bombing. it's not clear what his role was in the kenya mall attack two weeks ago, but we're just getting word that the target of that s.e.a.l. team six raid is by a man named ecrema. in terms of abu anas al libi, he is being questioned aboard a u.s. ship. george little issueded the following statement, quote, as the result of a u.s. counterterrorism operation, abu anas al libi is now lawfully
4:07 pm
obtained by the u.s. military in a secure location outside of libya. operators carried out the operation. commandos survey rouyned this man, who had been living in the open in the libyan capital, tripoli, since 2011 when he returned to libya to help overthrow gadhafi. he was captured saturday after he pulled up to his house after morning prayers. there was a $5 million reward for him for his role in the bombings in east aftercan. u.s. officials say he will be questioned for the next several weeks before being turned over to u.s. law enforcement for prosecut prosecution in the united states where he was indicted in the southern district of new york. >> i think you partially answered my next question because if you're telling me they're going to be talking to the guy for weeks, i want to know how significant this capture is. i think that partially answers it. >> it's significant because thest the first time the
4:08 pm
president has authorized a u.s. military strike in libya involving boots on the ground since the overthrow of gadhafi. it is significant because now, only three of the 21 al qaeda operatives named in the indictment for those embassy bombings remain at large. eight including osama bin laden, who was indicted at that time, has been killed. one died awaiting trial and nine, including al libi, are in jail or custody awaiting trial. u.s. officials say al libi will not be sent to guantanamo bay. >> i wish he was being tried in guantanamo rather than the southern district of new york. why if we were able to get al libi, we couldn't get the operatives from benghazi? >> the president has been under pressure to go after those suspects, some of which having giving interviews.
4:09 pm
officials said they were not told about the raid, but there were indications that libyan forces may have helped conduct the operation here. >> a couple of things cross my mind and representative king just said it. he said 15 years we've wanted to go after this particular terrorist and suspect, so why now? why the operation now? >> it's really not clear. al libi has been living in the open in the libyan capital for over a year. it's the first time the u.s. has ever carried out two simultaneous raids in two separate countries using u.s. special operations forces. the strike in somalia comes almost 20 years after the notorious black hawk down incident. it's significant because it shows the administration is willing now to cross borders and pursue terrorists no matter where they hide. something they've been criticized for not doing after benghazi.
4:10 pm
>> thank you very much. and moving on now to what's happening in this country, it is now day six of a partial government shutdown. the stand off about to enter week two as an even bigger crisis now looms. the threat of america defaulting if congress does not raise the debt limit and the deadline for that right now is around the corner. it's kind of a floating date though. the federal reserve sets this. we doept know if we'll exactly hit the debt limit on october 17th, but that's their best guess. the country won't be able to pay its bills anymore without the debt limit being raised. all the more reason why some say in congress they need to reopen the government at this point. lawmakers are weighing in on sunday talk shows from both perspectives. >> my goal here is to have the serious conversation about those things that are driving the deficit and driving the debt up. >> congress in years -- open the government, we are now going into the second week. it's causing real damage to the
4:11 pm
american people. >> live with the news from washington and steve, are we any closer to them reaching a deal or compromise? i know the senate closed its doors yesterday until tomorrow. >> right, nothing happening, no negotiations, if anything, the two sides are further apart. john boehner says he blames president obama for failing fo negotiate. says he doesn't have the votes in the house to fund a clean bill although the democrats say he does. despite pressure, boehner is standing his ground. >> i do not want the united states to default on this debt. but i am not going to raise the debt limit without a serious conversation about deal iing wi the problems that are driving the debt up. >> it would be irresponsible of me to do this. >> the president can pick up the phone anytime and start negotiations, he said quote, he knows what my phone number is. >> strong words coming from the speaker. so how are democrats reacting? >> well, they called boehner's position reckless and
4:12 pm
irresponsible. president obama's refusing to negotiate as long as the government shutdown continues. his treasury secretary today urged congress to act and put federal employees back to work. >> i don't think it's fair to say that there's no reasonableness on the democratic side. you know, what we have seen is demands, unless i get my way, you know, that will bring these terrible consequences of shutdown or default. that has to stop. >> pentagon employees are going back to work tomorrow even as the majority of the federal workforce remains off the job. >> i was just going to mention, 400,000 civilian furloughed workers are going back to work at the pentagon. nearly half. very interesting. kind of not needing congress at all at this point to do that. thank you very much. and right now, authorities are trying to get answers.
4:13 pm
there it is. that's what i was waiting for, about how a 9-year-old little boy boarded a plane by himself. went through security, did everything he needed to do and ended up in las vegas. and another arrest. after a father is beaten in front of his family by bikers and what we're learning now about an undercover police officer who was at the scene of that attack, but did not come forward until days later. stay close. in the nation, we know how you feel about your car.
4:15 pm
4:16 pm
the transportation and security agency is trying to figure out how a little boy was able to fly to las vegas on a major airline without a ticket. we've learned security agents screened the 9-year-old at minneapolis st. paul airport thursday morning. he then boarded a delta flight that left less than an hour later. the flight crew became
4:17 pm
suspicious and called police who met him as the plane landed. the boy was transferred to child protection service fs and right now, delta and the tsa say they are investigating how this happened. video seen around the world now, a group of bikers and a man driving an suv. more motorcyclists are now in custody in new york city after turning themselves in. police say among them is a man you see here. you'll see him in a moment. bashing the suvs window with his helmet. members of the biker group now facing charges in the chase and attack, which left one of their fellow riders paralyzed. the suv driver ran over the biker as he tried to get away. brian is live from our new york city news room with more. >> police say the man you just saw faces five charges, including assault and gang
4:18 pm
assault. prosecutors say he broke the suv's window, setting in motion events that led to the beating of the driver. chance's attorney says his client is only guilty of breaking a window. >> my client obviously overreacted in smashing the window, but beyond that, he was not a participant this any assault on that victim, so we got to contest those charges. >> alexi ark n was driving the suv with his wife and 2-year-old daughter. he is not being charged with running over one of the bikers as he tried to escape the mob surrounding his car. the injured biker's family say he was trying to protect the suv from the other bikers. a witness speaking out today says he saw him being beaten and tried to help. >> and -- that's the guy let her xwo, man, let mer her go. just go, man. that's it. so, they, we stood looking at
4:19 pm
each other's faces until they stopped right in front of me. >> so far, three bikers face charges, but police say this is an ongoing investigation have released this photo of a person of interest. an investigation is underway into an undercover detective who admitted days after the attack of being with the bikers that day, now, investigators are trying to determine whether the detective witnessed the attack. undercover cops are required to immediately report being a witness to a crime. >> thank you. a tiger attack at an exotic animal zoo. witnesses say they think they know what went wrong. also -- >> a monster truck plows into a crowd leaving terrified specta e spectators with nothing else to

this is fox report. it's the bottom of the hour and if you are just joining us, terrifying moments at the grand prix of houston when a race car went airborne and put debris into the grand stands. the car belonged to three-time indycar champion, dario franchitti. we're told he's awake, alert, but we don't know his exact
4:32 pm
condition. 13 people who were watching, spectators, caught in all that stuff, were injured. franchitti and two of those spectators taken to the hospital. in our nation's capitol hill, the u.s. house, the senate, due back in session tomorrow. as we are about to head into day seven of a partial government shutdown. no resolution among the politicians in sight. they're all playing out as the country moves closer to the possibility of defaulting on our debt for the first time. and u.s. forces this weekend carrying out two terror raids, one in somalia where navy s.e.a.l.s were targeting the terrorists behind the deadly mall attack in kenya. meanwhile, in libya, one of america's most wanted terrorists captured by u.s. forces and whisked out of the he's a suspected al qaeda member
4:33 pm
and linked to the bombings in 1998. peter? >> prior to the twin bombings at the american embassies in kenya and tanzania in 1998, abu anas al libi allegedly scoped out one of the targets. the details of his involvement are laid out in an indictment from the year 2000, filed by a federal court in the southern district of new york. osama bin laden was also indicted in the same document. he is now 49 years old and is believed to have been connected to bin laden and al qaeda as far back at the '90s. >> one of the key conspirators before 9/11. we were kind of cleaning up old trash, so to speak. >> abu anas was granted political asylum in great
4:34 pm
britain in the '90s when authorities searched his apartment. they found a manual for terrorists that provided step by step instructions if for a variety of attacks a few years after 9/11. ended up on the fbi's list of most wanted terrorists. now that we've got him, it's time to see if he will talk about more than a decade -- >> could say many, many more lives. >> anas was recently seen moving freely around tripoli. u.s. officials do not believe at this time he was involved in the deadly rain in benghazi last year. >> thank you. for more, let's bring in general jack keen, a fox military analyst. good to have you. let's start with delta force getting al libi. haven't heard the term delta force in a long time.
4:35 pm
why this group? >> well, they're just like a s.e.a.l. team six, highly classified forces. army versus navy. they do the same kind of work routinely in afghanistan. there's operations like this going on literally every night in afghanistan. what makes this great is we're doing an operation in a place where we're not conducting a war and it needs authorization to do it. first of all, they have good intelligence. they know where he is, what his habits are. they decided where are they going to stop them and intervene. they make certain he didn't have thiz family with him, he didn't have extra security with them. they suspected he may be armed and wanted to get to him quickly, so he doesn't shoot at him or kill himself. so a lot of preparation goes into something like this. it appears to happen so smoothly andrew teenly, but it's the
4:36 pm
preparation, and just the enormous skill and daring and devotion these operators have. with the unexpected and when that does occur. >> you said something that really resognated with me. you talked about how they keep others alive on the ground. looking out for a suspected terrorists family and so forth. i've noticed in what you said about this on fox news channel, this is very different than using a drone. >> well, it is. we've used drones almost as an instrument of choice and certainly, the horrific behavior these radicals have used on innocent people, certainly, they deserve to lose their life, but the fact of the matter is there's so much to be gained from our ability to capture them and gather valuable intelligence. this is probably unlikely going to happen here and i'm delighted they were able to do this without using a drone. now, we can talk to him and find out this reservoir of
4:37 pm
information that he has. not just about the past, but he also has about what's taking place right now. >> it's interesting because some of the pushback on the idea of terrorists coming to the united states for adjudication and going through our judicial system is that we wouldn't be able to talk to them, but we understand this person may spend weeks in u.s. custody and there will be some dialogue going on. i want to ask you what can go wrong in an operation like this? >> there's many things. look at the other raid that was conducted. i mean, the fact of the matter is the high value target we're seeking may not be at the location where we believe them to be there. we could be te tected and wed lose the element of surprise. remember, we're always a very small force trying to use the element of surprise to actually disarm the opposing force. we could have more people on the target with weapons than we expected. we can take casualties and when we take casualties, evacuation gets very challenging. if we're using helicopters or boats or anything mechanical,
4:38 pm
they can break down and it causes a problem. also, if there are civilians on the site and we harm them, doing that may trump the good that would come out of an operation. zpl i want to make it clear to the audience, we shifted in talking about the somalia operation just then and navy s.e.a.l. team six and i want to talk about the fierce fire battle they faced. maybe not anticipating there would be blowback as they were trying to get out the suspected terrorist tied to al shabaab. >> we don't know the details the intelligence they had and was this unexpected in terms of the amount of opposing forces that were there. we don't know if by chance they lost the element of surprise and they were detected and then people were able to react to them sooner than we would want something like that to happen and they're going to keep that hopefully quiet and to themselves as it should be and
4:39 pm
they'll learn from these operations, we don't need to wring our hands about this. these are things that happen on operations. this is not 24 or hollywood movies. these are real people doing real things and we cannot control all the events out there. the good thing is they're trained to a razor's edge and then the commander on the ground is going to make judgments about what's happening and what's the best course of action to take. >> for people who have seen you on the fox report weekend before, they know you're cautious not to gif too much away. you say that, too, can unravel our element of surprise. you mentioned the president of the united states earlier in your comments tonight and how he would have have gotten involved from the beginning. is this like taking out osama bin laden when you go after somebody in a different country, what sort of level do you get to in terms of government to make this happen? >> that's right. you put your finger rig on it. if we're going to conduct an operation in another country, the president of the united states will be involved in it.
4:40 pm
except in a country like afghanistan or iraq. where we are conducting a war, then the operational commander is authorized to conduct raids like this and the president is not involved in any of the decision making. here, he is involved in a decision making, particularly when we're putting boots on the ground in somalia or libya. he certainly knew the target, knew generally what the time frame would be and generally speaking, who was going to do all of this. i'm sure he probably did not get too involved in any of the details of the operation and also, obviously, he would be briefed almost immediately on the results. you know, we're seeing more information, it's like flying at 37,000 feet and we're getting a better idea of what's going on. tell me about this weekend and the war on terror. where we had success, where we didn't. >> i hope this is an indicator that the administration is going to take a tougher stand. it's really indisputable that
4:41 pm
the radical islamists have taken advantage of the arab spring. they're not the catalyst for the change sweeping through the the middle east, but they've seized it as an opportunity to gain control, gain influence, gain territory. and that is spreading in the middle east and we have been disengaged. frankly, i hope this is an indicator that we're going to get back involved and back in the game. go after these folks the way we need to and partner with our allies in the region, help train them, help advise them, help give them the resources, share intelligence and so to speak, be all in in dealing with this thing. because the al-qaeda, when they see something like benghazi, debacle in syria, they see that as weakness on our part and they take advantage of it and that has been what's been happening. >> i appreciate the fact you bring up our outpost attack, our ambassador taken out and three other americans. as part of an overcharging.
4:42 pm
my last question is what's next likely in all of this? will we see more weekends like this where these raids happen? >> i would hope so. when we have actionable intelligence that we should act. i'm mystified to this day that we have not taken action in benghazi against the terrorists who kkted that operation. we were tack tracking them for a year prior to the attack. this is something the central intelligence agency has been doing and they should not be treated as criminals. they should be treated as an act of war and we should be conducting operations like we did this weekend against them as well. >> after seeing what's happened this weekend, perhaps benghazi or other situations are on the horizon and we just don't know what's happening yet. thank you so much for your time and perspective this evening. an out of control monster
