tv   Americas News Headquarters  FOX News  January 25, 2014 3:00pm-4:01pm PST

3:00 pm
monday. have a great weekend. bret baier, "special report" up next. fox news alert. a gunman opening fire inside a suburban maryland mall crowded with weekend shoppers. welcome to america's news headquarters, i'm gregg jarrett. >> good to be with you. i'm jamie colby in for arthel neville. when the shooting was over, there were three people dead, including police say, the gunman. one person treated for a gunshot wound to the foot. four others sustaining various injuries as they fled. the hospital where all five were treated now saying that they've been released and the shooting happened inside a skateboard shop in the mall. we can now report sparking panic and ai don't say as everyone ran for their lives. that mall was full. molly henneberg is live. she's been on scene with the
3:01 pm
very latest. what is the very latest, molly? two press conferences, what have learned? >> reporter: jamie, we have just confirmed the identities of two of the three people who were killed inside this mall today. they are brianna balolo, 21-years-old from college park, maryland. and tyler johnson, 25 years old, from maryland. the third person, the person police believe is the shooter, is still unidentified, but police believe he went in to that skate shop on the second floor of the mall and shot those two people and then killed himself while shoppers and employees ran for cover in the mall because of the shooting. it took swat teams hours to search the mall and alert people who were hiding that it was safe to come out. >> if you imagine how many rooms there are in the mall, how many back offices and restrooms and dressing rooms and nooks and crannies in the mall, the tactical teams went through
3:02 pm
every inch of the mall and it has been cleared. >> reporter: right now there is a robot inside the mall around the body of the suspected killer trying to determine if there are explosives on his body. police also are flying in an explosive sniffing dog from ocean city, maryland, to help in the effort here. police say they are not sure of a motive yet. they're still investigating. here now listen to shoppers describe what it was like on the inside. >> everybody started running. i was able to get into the store right across from me. we all went into the back room and locked the door and waited. after 45 minutes, the police came and knocked on the door and said, just everybody stay in here, be quiet. don't talk. don't use your cell phones because he was still wandering around. >> reporter: maryland governor put out a statement calling this incident here today a, quote,
3:03 pm
senseless act of violence. he offered condolences to the victims' families and he thanked first responders for their, quote, quick work. jamie? >> quick to say the least, we heard in the press conference. they responded within two minutes of the very first 911 call. great work out there today. thank you so much. gregg? >> as police look for a motive now, let's bring in former f.b.i. profiler, author of "dangerous instinks." before we talk about possible motive, it's interesting that as molly henneberg pointed out, there is a row about the now did she -- robot now in search of explosives and they're bringing in a bomb sniffing dog from ocean city, maryland. when we heard the police chief in the news conference, apparently they really hadn't touched the body of the suspected gunman for fear -- i would presume there might be explosives on him. talk to us about that. >> well, based on the fact that it's likely that this individual
3:04 pm
did commit suicide, they can not rule out the fact that he came there with more than just that shotgun and that, in fact, he put explosives on himself. they have to rule that out, even though it's very likely right now someone is at his home, at his place of work to see if he has explosives or access to them. they may find out he doesn't. but that's not enough for them. they have to rule it out by making sure there is nothing on his body. >> yeah. it is not far fetched because we well recall in the aurora shooting in colorado, james holmes, the gunman there, had booby trapped his own apartment. so this now dead gunman could have booby trapped anything in the mall or inside his apartment, right? >> well, he absolutely could. we have any number of these individuals that do bring
3:05 pm
explosives with them to the crime scene, irrespective of what the specific motive is. so whether they're interested in explosives or they want to make sure that they commit maximum lethality, we have too many cases. so therefore, the police are certainly ruling out a potentially even mortally so situation there. >> let's talk about motive for a moment. police are not revealing any motive. in fact, they may not quiet know the identity of the gunman because they haven't touched his body to look for identificati in your experience, somebody who shoots people and then turns the gun on himself, taking his life, what does that generally involve in terms of motive? >> it's more than just that specific pattern. it's a broader pattern of behavior that's sort of bubbling to the top here. here is what i've identified. he walks into the mall, but walks to that store.
3:06 pm
it's a skateboard store. so it's not going to have as many people in it as some of the other bigger stores. he doesn't start shooting, as i understand, he doesn't start shooting when there are large numbers of people around. he waits until he gets into the store and he limits it to these two people. after which it appears as though he suicides. that suggests this may be a more personal motive that he targeted these two individuals, whether it was a relationship gone bad or other reasons. so it's really a broader fact pattern that to me suggests that these were -- these homicides were the result of being targeted by this person for personal reasons. >> likely people that he knew because if he wanted to kill people randomly, he could have picked any of the 202 stores there or the general area of the mall itself. >> he could have. he didn't start shooting when he entered. he waited 'til he got into the
3:07 pm
store. he did not go to the food court or the areas around the larger stores there. so when you interpret behavior the way we did in the f.b.i., you have to look at all the behaviors that surrounded the incident and then you start to look at the victims and the victimology. >> what about the weapon here? we know it's a shotgun. we don't know what gauge it is. but that is a weapon of great lethality. >> it is a weapon of significant lethality. it doesn't operate like the automatic weapons we've seen other people use, but eric harris in columbine had a shotgun. when you hear a shotgun rack, you never forget that sound. the damage it does is tremendous. often times very lethal. so you are a very sinister individual when you're pointing a shotgun at somebody. if that's the impact he was trying to make, i'm sure he certainly did that.
3:08 pm
>> yeah. but if he's trying kill one or two people with a shotgun, why would he have so much extra ammunition? >> well, that is a good question. what i think is going on here with a lot of these shooters is they know intellectually, they are not going to be able to shoot all the ammunition that they bring to these events. they know that. but they come loaded for bear because they're on a mission. their mindset is i'm on a mission. i may be on a mission to kill my former girlfriend. that's a situation here. or on a mission to kill a bunch of people i don't know. but i think the idea of bringing that much ammunition there is because it makes them look bigger, badder, more lethal. even though realistically, they know that shooting incident is probably going to be over in a couple of minutes. >> mary ellen, former f.b.i. profiler, author of "dangerous instincts," thank you for your insight.
3:09 pm
>> you're welcome. in other news, there are answered prayers for a group of catholic nuns. at least for the time being. the supreme court ruling that the little sister the of the poor will not have to comply with the obamacare birth control mandate, at least while the case is plying out in court. the nuns run homes for the elderly and fighting the requirement to provide birth control coverage for their employees. here is elisabeth ran with the story of church versus state. >> reporter: the injunction ordered by the supreme court justices says the colorado organization, little sisters of the poor, for the time being does not have to provide coverage which includes contraceptives as preventive care for women instead of completing the government issued. the group can draft its own notice proving its own religious objection. experts say this could have a sweeping impact on other groups across the nation. >> this decision that the supreme court made today applies to little sisters and it also applies to 400 other catholic
3:10 pm
organization that are insured through the same insurer. i think that this is going to have repercussions on all of the cases associated with the hss mandate. >> the solicitor general asked the justices to reject the injunction because the group doesn't meet the standard for such exemption. we're also seeing reaction from planned parenthood. the president writing in part, this case raises a very narrow and specific question about the administrative mechanism that religious groups use to claim their exemption. this is a case about paperwork. not religious liberty. the same day we also learned 3 million americans signed up for health care coverage. a post on the web site did not list specific age breakdowns, or how many folks have completed enrollment by paying their first month's premium. in washington, elizabeth prann, fox news. >> allall right. thanks so much. this is one of about 20 such lawsuits around the country. religious groups say the form is
3:11 pm
the first step to authorizing birth control coverage. gregg? >> millions of people are feeling the pinch of a propane shortage right now as record breaking cold weather is keeping much of the nation in a deep freeze. the gas often used outside metropolitan areas to heat homes and schools and poultry farms. brian yennis is live with the latest. hi. >> reporter: hi. it's pretty simple. a shortage of propane gas, plus a huge demand thanks to the january weather equals high prices. that's bad news for the homes who rely on propane for heating. the retail price for propane gas in the midwest hit around 4.30 a gallon on friday. that is more than double the price of gas just five days ago. for some perspective, the average price last winter was 1.74. the gas is especially important in rural areas, the midwest and the south where propane is also
3:12 pm
used to heat chicken houses and fuel manufacturing and agricultural equipment. quite simply, these high prices have real consequences. >> if we had it any higher than that, we couldn't afford propane. we couldn't afford to live. it takes me four gallons -- 4.44 gallons a day to keep our thermostat at 62 degrees. >> reporter: the shortage is being blamed on a combination of factors. farmers used a massive amount of propane began to dry a larger than normal harvest of wet crops. at the same time, a major propane gas pipeline was shut down for repairs, reducing the amount of gas that's imported to the midwest. plus the u.s. exported a record amount of propane in 2013. >> we've got all hands on deck to find out a way to do this. it's about finding a viable way to get more propane into states
3:13 pm
where we need it. >> reporter: part of what they're doing is under department of transportation emergency order, truck drivers are driving extra hours to speed up propane deliveries to those states that need it. gregg? >> thanks very much. we are still seeing dangerously cold temperatures in parts of our country. it's making that propane shortage that bryan was talking about a lot worse. snow storms hitting some areas in the midwest and northeast. take a look at cleveland, ohio. snow combining with the strong winds there are creating treacherous driving conditions. meteorologist janis dean has the entire country covered from our fox extreme weather center. it's still pretty awful out there. >> you know, i'm like a broken record these days. storm after storm. then of course, we've got the warm temperatures across the southwest. because we've got this blocking pattern, we have a dip in the jet stream here across the great lakes, midwest and northeast, and over to the southwest, we've
3:14 pm
got this ridge of high pressure that's keeping things very warm and dry. this is the pattern we're going to see, unfortunately for the next week or so. taking a look at these clipper systems that ride that jet stream, giving us snow yet again for the northeast. not a lot of snow, but enough to cause a nuisance on the roadways. we actually have blizzard warnings in effect for the northern plains and the upper midwest where you see shaded in red. not a lot of snow, but winds in excess of 30, 40 miles per hour is going to blow that snow and make things very dangerous. we watch this clipper system move in and another one that actually could bring some snow to portions of north carolina later this week. we'll have to watch it because this low actually could develop and bring us more snow for the northeast. unbelievable. the temperatures behind it, reinforcing shot of cold air, especially as we get into monday and tuesday. there is sunday. watch this as we head into monday. those are your daytime highs in fargo. minus 5 in chicago. 20 in louisville. 16 in buffalo.
3:15 pm
that's spread southward and eastward. tuesday into wednesday. so yet another shot of arctic air. will it rival the first week of january? in some cases yeah, we could get close. minneapolis, it was minus 23 on january 6. tuesday it will get to minus 21 again. air temperatures with the windchill minus 30 to minus 40 degrees. it is just -- i know, i'm a broken record. >> bitter, bitter cold. you may be a broken record, but you are our broken record. >> thank you, jamie. >> got to tell the truth. thanks. the pope might visit philadelphia next year. his first trip to the united states. pope francis says he'd like to drop in on the world meeting of families, a catholic gathering, that will bring visitors from around the globe. it's held every three years. his predecessor, pope benedict, had announced philadelphia as the host city and planned to be there. but pope francis' schedule
3:16 pm
doesn't quite get nailed down as yet. organizers hope he'll want to meet his flock in the city of brotherly love. >> how exciting. more hackers may be at work. first it was target. now another store, a major chain is reporting a potential breach of financial data. and this week is big, state of the union. it may be stacked with people who think they've been left behind by white house policy and a do nothing congress. we're going to give you a preview of the republican strategy fair and balanced coming up. ♪ ♪ so you can have a getaway from what you know.

home in quebec, canada. the recovery hampered by extreme cold weather. many of the victims found encased in ice up to two feet thick caused by the water used to put out the fire. and a report from france, the president has broken things off with his long-time companion. she served as first lady until a tabloid reported an affair between him and another woman, a french actress. back here at home, president obama is set to give a state of the union address on tuesday and this year's gop response will be delivered by congresswoman kathy mcmorris rogers, the highest ranking republican woman in the house is asking her colleagues to do something different. invite constituents who are left behind by the president's policies. a radio talk show host, fox news contributor and ron is a former communications director to former speaker dennis hastert
3:22 pm
and it's great to have both of you. >> thanks so much. >> thank you. >> ron, how important and significant and impactful could it be to bring someone to this speech, make them your plus one and have them have a compelling story to tell? is that a good strategy? >> yeah. i think this is really an idea by chairmanwoman rogers. she's giving the response herself and she's a working mother of three and to have members of congress, republican members of congress bring guests who are hurting by obamacare, who are looking for jobs, who have problems in america is an answer to the president who every state of the union promises the kitchen sink, yet nothing happens. actually since the last state of the union, i don't think any of his promises came true overt past year. so this is a really smart move because this can punch through the local media and the social media to get to people in their districts and states to talk about the problems that the president's policies have.
3:23 pm
>> everything is pretty much scripted, organized, prepped, practiced, the state of the union, when you hear the president or any president give the story of take so and so and they show them in the audience who struggled with x, y,. >> , but now has such and such, rounding applause by one half of the aisle standing up for the other half. how realistic are those stories, if they're hand picked and are they? >> jamie, i think the answer to your question he had it all. it's also rehearsed by the democrats and the republicans. look, as long as we're not fighting people and we start fighting problems, i'm okay with the republican strategy. i want to see representative of the 46 million americans who are under the poverty line. the 30,000 american students from the historicalllleges and o had to withdraw from school because of these student loan requirements, or the students who have been crippled by this trillion dollars debt. let's have an honest discussion about where we are. i want to see democrats and
3:24 pm
republicans in it because i tell you what, i'm really disturbed by the discussion about the welfare state, for example. that is led by republicans and that is led by democrats. in 2006, you had $59 billion that went to social welfare problems. that $92 billion that went to corporate welfare programs. so i want to see democrats and republicans get off the dime, become americans, and let's deal with the problems before us. >> ron, interesting, your analysis. what's your reaction, ron, because santita seems to be saying she would like to hear the stories of the people who are struggling, not necessarily those who are prospering given the percentage of the programs that the president has put forward and instead she's saying focus on the ones that are leaving people still struggling. >> that's what's really interesting here is that republicans are going to bring people to put a face on the issue, a face on the things
3:25 pm
regarding obamacare and lack of jobs. the president has been in office for now he's going into his sixth year here and he promised hope and change. >> wait, before you argue the president, what he did or didn't do, let's step back. santita is a democrat. she's saying that the president should put forward the people who are still below the poverty line, not those that he's successfully raised above, however many of those we are, we still know a lot of people are out of work and suffering. do you find that surprising as a republican that as a democrat, she's saying, hey, mr. president, tell us about the bad stories and fix it? >> i think that is starting to happen. i agree completely that the expectation should be raised on the president regarding the poor, the unemployed, to say where the answers. there is no question about it, this is the biggest problem that we have in our society and it needs to be addressed. i couldn't agree completely -- i couldn't agree more.
3:26 pm
you know, republicans, like marco rubio and paul ryan and eric cantor have brought out proposals on tackling poverty in the united states. the president has been talking about income inequality and trying to drive a class warfare argument. i think we need to have solutions rather than partisan bickering. >> let me get your position on that, the fact that there seems to be a lot of revenue shifting, wealth shifting, take from the rich, give to the poor. what do you think about the president's position on that? >> i think we need to move away from that. that's cold war, communists are coming thinking. the fact is, 85 people in the world are worth more in terms of marathon tear status than 3.5 million people. there is a problem here. it's a systematic problem. it's not a democratic problem or a republican problem. it really is beyond being an american problem.
3:27 pm
it is a problem about -- we have to decide that this is god's world. you know how i am, jamie. you know i'm always trying to figure out what god would do. the fact is, i think that there is enough in this world for everybody to eat, to have clothing, to have shelter. so we need to shift the conversation. it is not enough for us to just give corporations all of this money, 5% of our budget and then we start quarreling about -- american families cannot be too insignificant to save. republicans and democrats need to come together and figure it out because they both got us in this ditch. >> come together as i've witnessed and our viewers have witnessed, you did today, too. we will see what we hear on tuesday. i love the spirit, though of both of you. let's hope some of these things move forward. great ideas. thank you both. >> god bless you. >> thank you so much. that gunman opening fire on a popular suburban maryland mall. we're going to have the very latest on that deadly shooting in columbia, maryland, and the

3:33 pm
brianna benolo and tyler johnson. both employees of the store. we're hearing about the quick response by police. >> my deepest thank you go to the law enforcement who arrived on the scene within two minutes of the first call that we got to 911 and did not wait to go in to the mall to do the things they were trained to do. >> we will continue to monitor this story. for new details as they emerge. another potential hacking attack on a major u.s. retail michael store says a possible data breach may have affected customers' payment card information. the country's largest arts and crafts retailer also says it has now advised customers check your financial statements for fraudulent activity. in the meantime, coca-cola reporting a set of laptops
3:34 pm
stolen from its atlanta headquarters and the personal information of up to 74,000 people, mostly its workers or former employees, with it. the company says it has recovered the laptop and there is no indication that the information has been misused. all of this coming after hackers recently attacked target and neiman marcus. after decades in the work force, baby boomers should be planning for, well, they're already in retirement. or are you planning for it? a new gallop poll suggests 40% of baby boomers don't expect to call it quits at all until they're age 66 or older. a full 10% don't see themselves retiring ever. don't shoot the messenger. joining me to talk about what it really means for americans of all ages is ceo and founding partner of lexi capitol management. great to have you here. >> thank you. >> clearly we're working now and for a while of there was a time
3:35 pm
where you would say, if i just will make it to 62, i'll be able to kick back and clearly that's not happening. first of all, tell us why. is it that we yearn to have the income, we need the income or we're just living longer, therefore, we should work longer? >> the primary reason is just basic finances. recent boomers went through the perfect storm of financial events. there was the housing crash. we have a really volatile stock market. and a lot of them carry too much debt and they simply didn't save enough. so that's really the main reason. it's financial. >> so you're saying the financial is primarily due to debt generation, that the baby boomer generation has accumulated more debt than it can pay off within its working years, so it's working longer? >> in part. also things like pensions have largely disappeared. so a lot of the things that maybe generations before them had, which helped ease them into retirement, those things are gone. >> what does that mean for the
3:36 pm
next generation of workers? >> you know, i think that for the next generation of workers, it has some unique challenges. for instance, because the boomers aren't retiring, they're staying in jobs for longer, and that means that it's harder for some of the younger folks to move up. >> or even move in. >> yes. >> we are seeing many college and graduate schools students who are unable to get employed at either their skill level or at all. so they're having to take jobs that have nothing to do with their degrees. that will continue then? is this a trend? >> well, there is the opposite side to that. this can actually create some innovation. i know very personally when my mom was looking for retirement planning, i was looking through different wall street firms with her and i really didn't see any that would address her needs as she was looking to prepare for retirement and enter retirement. and it gave me the idea to start
3:37 pm
my company, a firm that was independent and could cater to her. so if you look at this population and their unique needs, you can create innovative companies, which creates jobs, and services these booms. >> that's interesting. it could, in fact, inspire new areas of employment, more jobs, the thought process and creativity could actually be spurred by it all. let me show think other gallup poll and get your reaction because it talks about what the boomers have going for them for these younger workers and one of the things that caught our eye was the fact that developers, that the baby boom generation, one of their strengths is development. so what would they be developing that might benefit this young generation entering the work force or just status quo? >> i think that there are really wonderful culture keepers. so it's not just that they are very, very good at working and
3:38 pm
developing new projects at the office. they're also ranked higher than younger generations for other attributes like respect and empathy. so this generation still has a lot that we can learn from and there are a lot of key cultural components that all companies can benefit from by looking towards them for different lessons. >> part of that baby boomer generation and any other younger generation and any time i do a segment issues i ask my expert the benefit of hiring a veteran. you talk about those skills of trustworthiness, reliability, honesty. is that something that those veterans returning will ultimately have an easier time, if more baby boomers realize they can cultivate this other generation or their peers because of those skills? 'cause so many are out of work. >> i wouldn't limit that to baby boomers. i would say everyone in a
3:39 pm
position to hire should carefully look at our american heros, our veterans and say can i help this person who literally put up their life to guarantee our freedom? so i think that they embody so many attributes that all employers would be really lucky to have. >> maybe at your company. >> i really wanted to get your take on all of this. very interesting discussion. so nice to see you. good luck with your company and creation. >> thank you. >> gregg? a judge in texas ordering a hospital to remove life support for a pregnant brain dead woman. the hospital has been keeping 33-year-old marlise munoz on a ventilator since no he have against her family's -- november against her family's wishes. now the details from will. >> reporter: yesterday was a very emotional day for marlise munoz' family. they say they have continued to press to try to get her off of
3:40 pm
life support because that's exactly what she told them she wanted to do. >> this is a sad situation all the way around. we are relieved that eric munoz can now move forward with the process of burying his wife. >> reporter: yesterday a judge ruled that since munoz is brain dead, she does not have to be kept on life support just because she's pregnant. legally there is a distinction between being brain dead, which means you're legally dead, and being in a coma or a vegetative state. let's go back to the end of november, that's when munoz' husband, found her unconscious. at that point she was 14 weeks pregnant. the hospital, though, kept her on life support to protect the life of the unborn child, per texas law. right now munoz is 22 weeks pregnant, but earlier this week, her family said the fetus is, quote, distinctly abnormal. munoz and her husband were paramedics and her husband said they both spoke about what to do in this circumstance.
3:41 pm
but some members of the faith community strongly disagree with taking her off life support. >> we will continue to hope that the hospital will make a decision to appeal this decision by the court so that the child will have a chance to live. >> reporter: yesterday a small group of people came together outside of the hospital to pray for munoz, at the same time the hospital continues to weigh its options. it released a statement saying it's consulting with the local d.a. and if it does not appeal, she will be taken off life support at 5:00 p.m. central on monday. gregg? >> sad story all the way around. thanks very much. really is. egypt erupts in dead levi less than as it marks three years since its historic uprising. we're going to have a report from our middle east bureau on that bloodshed and where the country stands today. that's coming up next here on fox if you've got copd like me...
3:42 pm
...hey breathing's hard. know the feeling? copd includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. spiriva is a once-daily inhaled copd maintenance treatment that helps open my obstructed airways for a full 24 hours. spiriva helps me breathe easier. spiriva handihaler tiotropium bromide inhalation powder does not replace fast-acting inhalers for sudden symptoms. tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, glaucoma, trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. these may worsen with spiriva. discuss all medicines you take, even eye drops. stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if your breathing suddenly worsens, your throat or tongue swells, you get hives, vision changes or eye pain, or problems passing urine. other side effects include dry mouth and constipation. nothing can reverse copd. spiriva helps me breathe better. does breathing with copd weigh you down?
3:43 pm
don't wait to ask your doctor about spiriva. it's not the "juggle a bunch of rotating categories" card. it's not the "sign up for rewards each quarter" card. it's the no-games, no-messing-'round, no-earning-limit-having, do-i-look-like-i'm-joking, turbo-boosting, heavyweight-champion- of-the-world cash back card. thiss the quicksilver cash back card from capital one. unlimited 1.5% cash back on every purchase, everywhere, every single day. now tell me, what's in your wallet?

... ... ... ... the revolution in egypt. it brought down former president hosni mubarak. today police and the army are displaying a heavy show of force around egypt to disperse thousands of antigovernment protesters. conner powell has more from our middle east bureau in jerusalem.
3:46 pm

3:52 pm
president's own party. look, mr. president it is a mistake to make income inequality a campaign theme this year. are they right about that in >> i think so, class warfare and income inequality is nice way of saying class warfare, that is trying to get middle-class and lower income americans to be angry about the fact that the rich have so much more money than they do. and it has been a decidedly ineffective political strategy over the years because quoit frankly i joke, people don't hate donald trump. they want to be donald trump. i am all for the president taking on pof are they and helping those in the bottom. i am certainly for the president standing up for middle-class folks that are squeezed and

against them. the vast middle-class blaming the wealthy. as if the problems for the middle-class are created by the wealthy, and frankly, i don't think it is thorough, i don't think that is how people look at it. and i don't think it is true and in the end of the day, it doesn't win votes for democrats. >> he linked inequality to it the war on poverty and we spent 20 trillion on poverty and the poverty from 19 to 15 percent. it is not a lack of money, is it, it is a lack of life skills? >> you need skills, i wish you are talking about skills and education and how to make america more competitive and our kids are not doing well in math and escapes as other country asks those issues unight us and don't devoid us.
