we hurt and we feel indebted to them and we obviously want to help whenever they are struggling. >> shortly after 4:00 p.m. central time the soldiers here on this post instead of hearing the retreat colors they were hearing gun shots. sirens started going off warning them they needed to hunker down and family members were calling them trying to get in touch with their loved ones who were here to make sure they weren't in danger. the hospital was prepared for all of these patients and at 6:45 this evening local time the president said i am heartbroken that something like this might have happened again and at 8:42 investigators confirmed it did happen again. confirmed the total 4 dead 16 injured. the gunman had psychological problems. his wife when she heard the news she was hysterical.

jaycie seigel s has that side of the story about the gunman and why he would he want to do something like this. back to you in the studio. >> at first it was a shock. obviously it was blast of what happened five years ago. it brings back images back in 20009. my heart goes out to those soldiers and their families that were shot today. it's a sad thing. i know what kind of strug ill they are going to have ahead both them and their families. >> that's sergeant sean manning was shot six times during the 2009 fort hood attack. yesterday's events of course bringing back horrible memories for the people who were there five years ago. we are joined on the phone by one of those people.

again. not five years later. it hasn't been that long since the last time. >> did you notice any changes? you would have thought that willed have been changes put in place after 2009. allegedly there were, that you would have been notified about your loved ones fairly quickly to let you know whether they were injured or whether they were safe. how did you find out that information? >> some cell phones didn't go immediately down so we were able to contact our loved ones. it didn't take as long. last time the post was shut down for many, many hours. this time it was about four. it's a much quicker process. >> definitely good news there. nadal hassan back in 2009 an army psychiatrist. then we have this shooter here, this occasion allegedly being

treated or actually we know he was being treated for psychological problems. one of your own once again doing this shooting soldier on soldier. how does that make you feel? does it make you feel really unsafe? >> it does. i had trouble falling asleep last night. it's also just really sad because i feel like our systems are failing us and they are just being swept under the rug and not being paid attention to. it takes something like this for the military system to say we need to take care of it. >> it doesn't appear they are. there have been 9 shootings on bases across the country since the first fort hood shooting back in 2009 and there are also talks of military funding cuts. we know there have been many of those. what would you say to legislatures in terms of what you need as a family to hopefully avoid this happening

again and get these service members the help that they need when they return from war? >> we need to add more funding to things like ctfp, the mental health department. our post doesn't need things like a brand new hospital or signs or things like that. we need to reroute some of our funding to go in more important things like ptsd and mental health industry. >> i should say not confirmed that the shooter had ptsd, but i was being diagnosed for it. thank you so much for joining us. we really appreciate it. once again we are glad that your husband and children are safe today. >> thank you. >> now other stories making headlines. while you were sleeping people in chile jolted out of bed

>> now back to the shooting at fort hood that left two service members dead and three others injured. the identity of the gunman specialist ivan lopez. casey seigel is live where he has been all night long. what do we know about the shooter? >> good morning. fbi sources on the ground are telling fox news at this point although it is early in the investigation they don't have any evidence to suggest this was motivate bide religion. the suspect does not have anything in his background that indicates he was part of a muslim extremist group. the reason i point that out and the reason i say that in the first place as you well know in 2009 the shooting that happened here very much had religious under tones. he yelled allah akbar or god is great in arabic just before he opened fire on this very post in

2009. they identified the gunman as ivan lopez. he had just transferred here from another military installation. he had done a tour of duty in iraq and had a self reported brain injury. although army officials saying he was not a wounded warrior he had been under going psychiatric evaluations for ptsd or post traumatic stress disorder and was on medication for depression and anxiety. now the deep investigation into this soldier's background begins to try to determine motive here. >> at this time there is no indication that this incident is related to terrorism. we are not ruling anything out the investigation continues. >> lopez was married and had

family living here. this all ended of course yesterday evening when he took his own life after he was confronted by an mp or military police officer. the emergency response time very, very quick. this digs up these all too familiar feelings in 2009. >> casey thank you for all you are doing out there. keep it up. >> all explanations frustration and pointed accusations mentd for the first time ex cia boss mike morrell faces the intelligence committee and admits he ignored key parts in the days after the benghazi terror attack. we are live in washington, d.c. to break this down. >> mike morrell told lawmakers at the time he gave more consideration to the analyst assessment at the headquarters at the states rather than the

cia chief station who reported there were no protests saying the latter report was quote not compelling and was based on lose evidence. >> if i am looking for this the cia judgment about what happened in that r a particular case i would go to my analysts not to people that were on the ground. >> the hearing focused on the controversial talking points. morrell downplayed his role in editing those and denies outside influence testifying he believed the attack was pair and protest. he said the state department was unhappy with the contribution. change s /* -- changes. >> to me seems like you are more interested in protecting the state department than the state

department is. >> one operator watching the hearing says morrell has no idea what happened that night and doesn't understand why he was speculating during the haeing. he wouldn't have to speculate if he talked to the people there that night. >> thank you elizabeth. in 2009 forth hood was rocked and devastated by nadal hassan's attack. how does this happen again? former senior military intelligence officer steve rogers weighs in next. >> she moved out because she didn't like their rules then she tried to sue them. now one school is trying to reward her for her braty behavior.

terrorists. we untrust them overseas in battle we should protect them here where incidents like this occurs. >> there were there r three incidents in fort hood in five years. it stirred up a lot of emotion with major nadal hassan. why hasn't anything been done since then? >> that issed problem. there's a lot of talk coming out of washington. i heard measures but they haven't done much about this. >> here's the other issue. open fire with a smith and wesson semiautomatic pistol. it was just purchased recently. how did it slip through security? >> that is kind of puzzling. any time i am on a military base i would never -- i knew how secure these bases were. there is a lack of security. it started when they decided to take u.s. marines away from the gates. that's not to say these fellas

aren't doing their job. i remember they guarded every single base in inspecting cars and people in these bases. >> in 2009 who was it that ended up engaging with the fort hood shooter? >> who was it? it was security one security guy with one gun. if you had more individuals armed on that base you would not see the number of people who were killed at fort hood today. >> maybe it would have made a difference. why didn't they take these security measures? >> it goes back to individuals talking about washington and talking the obama administration. a lot of talk no action. we are going to have to take action soon. thighs are targets. we are at war with terrorist wrists. you need to protect your people when the cross hairs are on them. >> three innocent people dead. yesterday 16 wounded. >> last week, six, seven days

instead they heard gun shots. the attack lasted for 15 minutes. responders arrived sirens were going off they were locked down family members were off the coast families called them to make sure they were not in danger and they were okay. hospital got word they were preparing for new patients to arrive as well. heartbroken that something like this might have happened again. then it was con virmed at 8: -- confirmed at 8:42 it did happen again. 4 dead 16 others injured. the gunman's wife when she heard the news she was hysterical neighbors say. casey seigel will be here live to tell you more about the gunman and why in the world someone would want to do this in fort hood. >> five years later doing it again.

from all over the world from bases across the united states and abroad. news travels very quickly in an instill lags wi-- installation like this. >> it grabbed the news headlines in the forefront of all americans but are those emotions still a bit raw for you today from five years ago? >> absolutely. when you think about the people you go to school with and worship with it effects you deeply. we spent the past decade supporting these soldiers as they go off to war and come back. not only did we have the event in 2005 we were just dragged through a trial where all of this was reopened to the public and community and victims again. perhaps building a memorial for

these people something like this happens yet again. >> they get so many delays. >> what was it you were asked to do yesterday and how are you reacting today? >> the city stands ready. this is a different situation than we had hoped to be in. but we stood ready with our mutual aid agreements our police department assisted in the investigation our fire department sent personnel to back up the fire department inundated off post. the community also realized if people were locked on base the people were locked off base. we opened a community shelter before the gates radwere reopen. >> i was monitoring the story as it unfolded in the media, how important is it to know that you are there for support in situations like this?

>> back to the shooting at fort hood that left three service members dead and 16 others injured. some brand new details emerging including the identity of the munn man. specialist ivan lopez. >> live from fort hood where steve dos s -- casey has been a night long. >> army officials are telling us he was being treated for mental health issues. he was suffering from things like depression and anxiety and taking medication for it. he had not been officially diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder but he was being evaluated for it. it takes quite a bit of time for the mrilitary to say someone wa suffering from it. he spent four months in iraq on

a tour of duty back in 2011. he had a self reported traumatic brain injury. they didn't classify him as a wounded warrior. he had notived a purple heart or anything like that. w what would have caused him to open fire still very much unclear. he used a 45 caliber smith and which is son semiautomatic weapon. authorities got to the scene quickly after this post went on look down. >> within 15 minutes first responders responded to the scene, engaged the shooter and the shooter is dead from a self-inflicted gun shot wound. >> lopez had just been transferred to fort hood back in febl. he didn't live there long but he did have an off post apartment

would go to my analyst not to people on the ground. >> susan rice rehearsed days after the attack rice down-played his roll in editing that. specifically why he took the word islamic out of the bullet points even saying the state department at the end was still unhappy with his contributions. >> the last thing i wanted to do was to do anything to further inflame those passions. that's why i took the word islamic out. it was a judgment. the second reason ill took it out is what other kind of extremists are there in libya? >> according adam housley, f morell doesn't have anything to

do with what happened that night he doesn't know why he was speculating about that night. if he talked to the people in libya that were there he would know what happened. >> thanks so much. well it's not the first time in 2009 nadal hassan went on a shooting rampage in fort hood. our next guest isn't surprised it happened again. former protection officer schafer is next. >> first let's check in with steve doocy and see what's coming up on "fox & friends." >> we will continue to follow the breaking news from fort hood. victims and witnesses of the 2009 attack will join us live. colonel allen west will be here with reaction to what happened. what happens next in the investigation? plus a feminist conference should be conclusive until a conservative showed up with a

camera. wait until you see what happens. been a bu got a busy three hour. keep it right here on "fox news channel.

go back and you look at what happened in 2009,ç look at what happened at the navy yard. those were not military personnel that shot those two assailants. in fort hood it was the first time civilian contracted police officers. at the navy yard it was d.c. police officers that came in and shot. you did not even have military that could react and take these assailants down. so we have a problem. we do have an issue. >> why is there another shooting rampage we're talking about? and still questions about security and what can be done to fix it.

colonel tony shaffer joins us with more. thank you for joining us this morning. share with us yourç thoughts. why does this continue to happen? i know also you say you're not surprised. >> no. there's two separate pieces we have to look at. we have to look at the mental health issues of soldier right now. we've had a suicide problem. this is related to that. let's talk about what allen was talking about, the military weapons issue. the lessons from the fort hood shooting were never actually interpblzed by the -- internalized by the military. i live in northern virginia and have a concealed carry permit. when i go to fort belvoir i can't go armed. the military has an unrealistic expectation of people in the military to be saints. this is why people who are crazy, who have problems mentally, terrorists who byç the way, the f.b.i. seeking

a guy, a recruit trying to get on do a jihad attack like nissan has san. norfolk, the navy yard, these guys know if you get a weapon past security, nobody will be armed, you can kill people with impunity. >> you mentioned norfolk. there have been 13 shootings at bases involving our military since 2009 when the first fort hood shooting happened. you were alsoç talking about the number of suicides of military members. this we believe may be at this point soldier on soldier. clearly he was being treated for mental health issues. how do you think that ties in? >> it ties in directly. i don't think so far evidence as we have it -- i think the evidence

indicates clearly this was a troubled soldier. the general says there is a long process to diagnose ptsd. i've been in a situation i've had to plan worst case. these kids come back and they're damaged. to think they have to go through some level of uphill battle to get the treatment they need, that is something we need toç rethink. i think this kid was frustrated and that's the last thing you want to do with someone who is that troubled is frustrate them trying to get the treatment they need to make themselves better. >> we appreciate your insight. thanks. the new jersey teenager who climbed to the top of one world trade center may not serve time behind bars. he will be evaluated by social workers at a program for juvenile offenders to see if he's eligible for

alternative programs that would keep him out of jail. the 16-year-old was arrested last month and is facing trespassing charges after he squeezed throughç a hole in the fence and took an elevator to the top. it is expected to be one of the worst allergy seasons but relief may be in sight. there is a new pill on the market that may replace allergy shots. the drug was just approved, oralair, the first pill in the u.s. to treat hay fever. >> latest developments on the fort hood shooting and the extreme weather to look out for, all you need to know before you leave the house this morning. that's up next.
