skaury moments for the family. >> it was a crazy, crazy car chase. one of the craziest i have seen. thank you for joining us today. >> american news head quart ares starts right now. >> a rapidly developing story. 20 injured after a massive explosion. and i am bill hemmer. >> we'll look live at the aftermath of the massive explosion in east harlem. just a now hours ago, this was the scone here. sidewalks littered with broken glass and shattered store fronts and apartment windows and hundreds of people running for cover. >> we smelled gas last night in the building. when i was leaving to go to work, we smelled the gas and my

wife called me and like 9:30 and the building next door to us explodes. >> in our hallway, the lobby and the ceiling came down. it was a loud explosion like a bomb. >> give the idea of the blast before and after pictures. screen left and right. the explosion shut down the major train line. and that is live in northern manhattan. where does it stand now,>> reporter: good afternoon to you. let me set the scene for you. it is an active scene. it is a five alarm blaze and firefighters are still arriving on the scone and the fire is still not contained and there is a danger the mayor said the gas coming in the buildings underneath.

here's what he had to say about the deadly combination of gas and fire. >> con ed is in the process of shutting down all gas mains going in to the building. that is a detailed and complicated process that requires digging up the ground and manual labor to turn off the different supplies of gas to the building. >> reporter: moenl, bill, as firefighters pull in two buildings collapsed and two people are confirmed dead. 18 or more injured and some of them very seriously and they expect that number to rise. they can't search the rubble until they get the fire under control. residential apartments were in the building. and there was a church and store front on the main flow and nearby preschool where they are coping children inside at this hour. smoke and debrie covering metro

north. it is a mess and chaos. evacuations are ongoing as they check the structures and stability of those in the area. they had no warning in advance and fire crews are applauded for responding to the first call this came in to 911 in two minutes flat. five alarm and all hands on deck. emergency management and ambulances coming in and out. if you come back live, we had to keep them on all morning. there is a lot in the air and this is several blocks away. this is the closest they will allow. >> thank you, jamie colby on the scene in new york city. we are waiting reaction from the administration to obama care lagging enrollment numbers. as the white house daily press

briefing getting unway. we'll monitor it. this is happening as the president's job approval hits a new low. 41 percent in a washington street nbc poll. fox nows contractor, byron, how are you? >> i. >> we'll talk about the enrollment numbers. is this si winning ekwaegz? >> they are going in the wrong direction as far as the administration is concerned. 1.8 million in december and 1.1 million in january. and 943 this happened sign up in february. the numbers are going down. go back to october and november when they lost the months because of the website's terrible start. the administration said the number of enrollees would go up. they had a grap h.

they are trying to get to the unofficial goal of 7 million by march 31st. that doesn't look like it is going to happen at this point. and if president obama did that unusual interview with the funny or do i in an effort to get the attention of the young pem that they need for the health of obama care. what did you make of that interview? >> he wouldn't have done something like that unless he had something to sell. the percentage of younger people is the percentage of the larger group signing up for insurance is where it should be. and in february, it was 27th that are in the 18- 34 group. that was 25 percent in the earlier months. and the administration needs 40 percent of those to be in that group. the reason being, of course,

younger and healthier people will pay premiums and not use health care to subsiddize the older people who do need the health care. >> we'll go down to florida. as you know, the republican candidate eked out a win over the democratic candidate who got 46.7 percent. and of course, this is going to be a eracy for the health of political parties. with that in mind, and the win by the republican candidate, what does this is a in terms of what the republicans attack or lay back from obama care? >> it will encourage the republicans to talk about obama care. you can't tell from one special election or one congressional district. but alex singh, the democrat supported obama care but wanted to fix obama care. when she was asked what she would do to fix the obama care,

she only had two ideas. help the government purchase prescription drugs for medicare and repole the medical equipment tax. that doesn't attack the bigger problems of higher premiums and narrow choices of doctors and prescription drugs. democrats have to address the issue if they are going to argue that they are going to fix obama care. >> we'll see how the white house is addressing the issue. we'll take it live with jay carney. thank you for your perspective, bill? >> and meanwhile, with a stroke of a pen, president obama is set to sign an excutive order to force american businesses to give moreover time pay to millions of american workers. meiss france isz, what is the change and all of this about?

>> you may have wondered why you get paid over time for some jobs and not others. the federal law is if you earn less than $455 a week, you everyone over time. the president wants to double it and this would mean 5 million more people are eligible for paid hoefr time. >> is this good? >> those on the left people tend to spend every dollar they get. it is a boost for the economy and the money would recirc out. the problem is it doesn't grow on a money tree. you have to ask where is that coming from? small business owners have less workers or raise my prices. it will hurt someone else. it has to come from somewhere. >> sounds like the argument about the minimum wage.

the congressional budget office got out there if you raise minimum wage, the way the president has you will lift people out of poverty but 500,000 people will lose their job. you are taking from one and giving to another. i talked to a small business owner of mcdonald over the woke weekend, he is a small business owner. he wants folks to get better and become managers and earn 90,000 a year. but if he has to pay more to the lowest rung. he can't raise prices. he has a small margin. he will hire newer people or not open the next mcdonald. >> i know you will have more on fox business. and we'll find out if there is another option or model to this. >> there is another option.

look at silicon valley. they give people a stake and everyone is rowing in the same direction. this is the opposite. >> we'll see you at 2 o'clock. money. >> i love that, too. i will call you big money. and a big win for republicans in florida special congressional election. david jolly narrowly beating the democratic opponent. and his campaign cited obama care as the reason. and what a nice shot mr. roberts. >> reporter: arthel. it has been raining and the sun is a welcome addition to the day. >> this was the first big test. it appears to have passed with flying colors. there was a lot of republicans who didn't think david jolly was

the strongest candidate and yet he came from behind to boat alex singh who was well established. and she had greater. name recognition and won the direct four years earlier. and david jolly predicting big things for republicans come the fall mid- term election. >> we know what happened here portrends what happened in november. republicans will hold the house and we begin to look at taking the september for >> reporter: the democrat run on a message of mend it and don't end it. some republicans are openly worrying that anti- obama care will not be enough for them come november. and who knows what will happen with obama care enrollment and they need to mod foy the message to go beyond just repeal.

david jolly, the candidate elect from the 13th congressional direct agrees with that and saying the republican party needs to be more than just no. >> we owe solutions to the american people and we have had an opportunity to talk about that. you shouldn't take from this race to run on only repeal obama care. >> reporter: a lot of people are saying the win from a guy from behind, gives republicans a clear glide path to the november election and maybe even win the senate. the national republican congressional committee is enthusiastic and look at historical perspective. winning a special election in a midterm year doesn't guarantee the table on election day. >> does the win in florida mean trouble for democrats.

>> and a power struggle in ukraine hitting the ukranian prime minister and u.s. ally against the russian president. >> what will be the president's message? >> big story right there. >> this guy decides to take the bus literally. the unscheduled stop where police finally caught up with him. >> went in a cul-de-sac and he had no where to go. he pushed the guess on the floor and crashed through a backyard. when i first felt the diabetic nerve pain,

of course i had no idea what it was. i felt like my feet were going to sleep. it progressed from there to burning... to like 1,000 bees that were just stinging my feet.

there is pet dogs that get credit for stopping a man in his tracks after a wild joyride in a stolen bus. the surveillance video shoes him boarding that in tempe, arizona. the bus was left running by the

way. he crewed around arizona state university and offered someone a ride. officers came up and he crashed the bus between two walls. he picked the wrong yard and that's why the dogs were. >> the man jumped over the fence. and he saw the dogs andy he put up his hands and dropped to his knows. they held off ten yards and barking at him. >> they kept him cornered until the off >> tough looking dogs, to. >> the ride is over. n90 minutes away from the high level meeting between president obama and ukranian prime minister. a show of security as they look at how to keep russia from taking more ukranian territory.

we have kt mcfarland. >> hi. >> there is symbolism and putin doesn't care? >> putin doesn't care. president obama will say it is terrible. but the fact of the matter crimea is gone and ukraine is not getting it back. crimea people will vote to join russia, the question will be how do they stop putin of taking more of eastern ukraine? >> is the dorshut or are there ways to get russia from retreating from crimea like you are saying and not taking more of ukraine? let's talk about the economic force. is that theective route to go? are we talking giving money to ukraine or squeezing putin's

pocketbook. >> i feel sorry for the poor ukranian. ukraine is like the guy whose wife left him, that's crimea. the bankers have a lien on the house and electric company is threatening to cut off the electricity. and the wife has gone of and went to a now guy and sweet talk her and give her goodies. and what the prime minister is doing in the white house, going to his pals, this is terrible, can you help me. no one is talking about using military option or american ornato or ukranian military forces. there is almost nothing to do short term. there is a lot to do long-term but the president has to use energy as a weapon. putinoused russian oil and natural gas to get russia back on top again.

the only way to deal with him is have our own long-term plan. and frac baby frac. and use our own american position in the world and get the penes off of the blackmail of russian natural gas. >> you talk about long-term. kt, you have people of crimea that vote to stay with ukraine or annexed in to russia and u.s. and european allies are not going to recognize the refferundum. is it really the people voting? >> it doesn't matter whether they recognize it or not. the people in crimea who speak russia and their history is with russia and going to vote to leave ukraine and join russia. there is little ukraine can do

about it. you have to understand. russian children are taught russia without ukraine is just a country, russia with ukraine is an empire. and they are america the beautiful song talks about ukraine and the port in crimea. and this is something that the russians want and will get in a position to have it and we have almost no leverage. medium term but long-term, it is up to the president to use it. >> baby frack. i will get a t- shirt. it is about even better. frack you. >> and a massive explosion in new york city. two others are injured. and we are getting updates. >> and a brutal beating on a train caught on camera. six people joining the attack.

>> it is not spreng yet, american. details on a late winter storm that will affect millions of people with snow and ice and cold temperatures. >> really cold! it's a growing trend in business: do more with less with less energy. hp is helping ups do just that. soon, the world's most intelligent servers, designed by hp, will give ups over twice the performance, using forty percent less energy. multiply that across over a thousand locations,

whether a cockpit intrusion or rogue pilot. i think it was evident it is not a bomb. there is no debris found and now radar tracks at least believe to police the airplane over the strait of malak a. >> i think it is a criminal act. neven that report may not be true. the head of the air force. we did not pick up a signal. fiveros and two transponders why two? >> and it is redundancy. in case one fails, turn on the other one and then the aircraft traffic control system knows where you are. >> to be clear about that, there is only one on at a time, correct? >> that's correct. one transponders at a time. three radios one of operates the a car system.

that is the system that traps mitts the health of the airplane back to the airline. we haven't heard from the maairlines what is on the vh5 ros and two hf radios as well. >> bog designed this very well. >> it is a great airplane. >> that's what i wanted to ask you about so well. you know the engineers who put the aircraft together. they take pride in that. tell us about that. >> the triple seven. this is only the third accident or incident with the airplane. britain airways crash landing in london and due to the fuel starvation because of icing. and san francisco crash with asiana airlines last year, pilot error on that and now this one. this airplane just doesn't break.

it's reliability record is 99.7 percent and good as it can get. >> you think something happen in the cockpit whether it was the pilot or co-pilot or intrusion? go? >> it really has to be. there was no distress signal provided over thero and no distress signal entered through the transponder and the airplane makes a coordinated in command turn and not a turn that was perhaps induced by a malfunction. this just looks and feels and smells as if it is a criminal act. >> the question is, where is it and when will we find it? scott hamilton out of the seattle, washington. >> and listen, this is a great night for us in pi nels county and you mentioned the health care plan that is a great

concern to people in the country and the president's health care plan hurt people in the county. and a lot of people came out to express that concern to the president and congress. >> there he is congressman elect david jolly on the message of obama care. is he right? >> david, and kirsten powers and both are fox news contractors, what is happening, you two? you had a long time to mull it over and let it marrinate in the mind? >> first, billy take it out of the typical spin zone where political parties try to turn it into a referundum they want to run to. kerry picket was there to report on. it alex singh who moved in the district rented a condo so had

that carpetbagger appeal and never answered to the voters in she would move in and that created a negative. and on david jolly they ran against him with national influence saying it was on social issue. and seniors in the issue are past the obama care issue. but what this shows with obama slipping for months in the polls, with his failures on foreign policy and economy and on multiple that that carries over to the democrats they are paying the price. >> you are saying this about obama to be chlor. >> over all it is about obama. >> so david, basically you feel it is a referundum on obama

care. what happens next? do you agree that it is a message to the white house is we are not in favor of obama care and we should fix or get rid of it. what is the message in >> the message is that there is a tide turning against the democrats. and it could be obama care or the president's over all low approval rating that are a drag on democrats, the seat was held by the republican. it was expected that the seat to go to a democrat and it shifted and was leaping more democratic. and the fact that the democrat didn't win does suggest that something is a wrong. she outspent her opponent and a better known candidate and a top tiered candidate where as the other person was not the first choice of the republican party. and for democrats it sends a message and i think they

already knew, that the electorate is not on their side in the midterm lecs. >> if it sends a message that something is wrong, what is wrong? >> i think it could be a lot of things. people point to obama care because so much money was spent with the anti- obama care ads and they assume it went the way it did over obama care. i think it is a broader issue with the democratic party and the leader of the democratic party barak obama has low approval ratings and that will carry over for the red districts and the democrats running. >> the thing that david jolly said last night the concern of obama care and concern about government in our lives and david he didn't just mention obama care. he referred to taxes and the overregulation and the way

washington d.c. is acting today. if that extends beyond the west coast of florida, what is the midterm strategy and the message for republicans come november? >> the message has to be broader, bill. it is not just obama care, it is it all of the issues that are combined under the presidency to kistern's point and president obama and his failed issues and failed policies whether we agree on what failed or not. that's how they so. it the democrats will do what they did in the district. trying to participate the opponent as someone to run away. bringing up the social issues and it is overregalways and government intrusion and americans want to be free to make choice about their lives even for the democrats who turn on the progressive administration and look at it as a way that is frankly is

antithetuccal to the american model. >> i didn't hear a message. >> do you go after obama care or government in gentleman. >> you go after obama care. that is the low hanging and most painful obvious fruit of the kitchen table and you do go after growth of big government at all levels and do it federally and locally. >> david is saying that the message is to run away from the democrats, and how then, do the democrats get on message to bring people back sto to their side? >> you are seeing some democrats that are in red states having to distance themselves from obama care and having to say they are challenging the president on it and trying to make it work. they can't completely run away because they voted for it. and they will have to convens them it was the best thing. >> it can't just be about obama care can it?

>> the election is not just about obama care, but that is a issue that people are focusing on because it had so much impact. the economy is also an issue. and people who are unhappy with the president because they feel the economy did not turn around as much as they wanted to and they will put it on the senate democrats, it is not about limited government and i am watching and listening to david, when the republicans win. they will over interpret it is limited government when it is not. >> we have to run. thanks to both of you. david and kirsten. >> and a little boy, a shot of life saving med occasion. >> his mother hopes he can beat the cancer. she would talk about her son's fight that inspired mrerns.
