new york. you're looking at the driver right there that he would eventually hit, ken ward jr. he would strike him at about 35 miles an hour. ward would flip up in the air about 50 feet and unbelievably he would die. >> pronounced dead, kevin ward jr. was 20 years old. you see the initial car go by him and investigations are continuing and the county sherrif said there's no criminal -- nothing pointing at this point to criminal charges, that this investigation will go on. >> in all black in a nighttime race. the question is could tony stewart have avoided him. >> sort of a split decision. friends of ward saying it was intentional. friends of stewart said of course not. we spoke to friends of stewart yesterday who said stewart was planning on racing nascar after the death. a very, very odd decision. immediate uproar, outcry

over this. they changed their mind, his team and they issued a statement more contrite than the first. >> known for aggression, known for intensity, certainly catastrophic and devastating to hear this news. investigations are going on as of now. you see that first car swerve out of the way, it does bring in a ton of question as to could it have been avoided and should more have been done. this is the ontario county sherrif on how this could have happened and what's going to happen next. >> at this very moment there is no -- there are no facts in hand that would substantiate or support criminal charge or indicate criminal intent on the part of any individual. there are no foregone conclusions made at this point. we're looking for any information, any relevant evidence that will help us to come to a final determination as to why this happened. >> interesting. >> we're going to talk to two people who were at the

scene when this tragedy took place. joining us is michael logan. tell us what you saw. >> well, it was the a main feature halfway through the face, and tony stewart and kevin ward jr. were basically racing for position. as they entered turn 2 they were basically going for the same line, same spot on the racetrack. that are cars appeared as if they got tangled. kevin's vehicle got stuck stewart's vehicle was able to continue on. the track dropped the yellow flag obviously for the accident, there being a caution which all the cars on the track slowed down but were still going at a pretty good clip. at that point i saw kevin ward jr. start -- or begin to exit his vehicle and start to make his way down the track.

and he think i mentioned to my son at the time, you don't really think he's going down to confront tony stewart do you, because this is something you sometimes see in auto racing. at that time i looked down to the track to see where tony stewart's car was, obviously knowing he was near kevin at the time of the accident. and picked up tony's car and kind of just in turn 1 visualized them getting closer together. as tony's vehicle got closer to kevin, he sped up -- >> wait a second. you say as kevin's vehicle got closer to kevin, he sped up? >> correct. >> you're confirming there is that sound of acceleration that some people speculated was indeed an increase of speed; michael? >> yeah, it was an increase of speed. when i looked to the point where kevin was walking and tony stewart's vehicle

would intersect, basically what i saw was tony stewart's vehicle go by and kevin wasn't there anymore. and he was gone. and i didn't really know what had happened. and so my assumption on the speed-up was basically tony stewart, you know, sped up to avoid an altercation on the track. >> logan, do you feel the same way? do you think this was an accident? do you think it could have been avoided? we've all been in cars, been in semi-aggressive situations on the road. this is a race. what is your instinct? >> tony stewart is professional at what he does. no one wants to intentionally hit another driver. a lot of people, a lot of drivers out there, people that race these cars say he may not have seen him. it could have happened so fast. it was dark. he was wearing an all black fire suit with a black helmet. it was dark out there. the lighting wasn't -- you

know, it's a local track so the lighting is nothing like a big-scale race. the lighting wasn't all that great. i just think it is a simple accident. not simple obviously, but just an accident. no intent on tony's part to do that on purpose. >> right now we have investigators questioning him. here's the question: michael, do you go to a lot of race sns >> we maybe attend three to five a year. >> have you ever seen someone get out of a car on a track? we've seen it in pit row before and tony stewart did in 2012 did himself. he showed his temper. that's part of who he is. have you ever seen it done on the track in the middle of a race? >> certainly under caution conditions. you don't see it very often. obviously the racetracks and the track in ontario, they are high on safety, it is not something you see all that often.

drivers are instructed to remain in their cars in an accident. but you see it from time to time. these are athletes. they are in competitive situations. they're looking to win or at least do as well as they can. when they feel as if they have been denied that opportunity, their emotions can get the best of them. that's not unusual. but you don't necessarily see it that often. >> thanks so much for sharing your story. there is a big call out for anyone at the race that has any video. please help out the investigators to find out what's going on. we've got another fox news alert. overnight the u.s. launching five more airstrikes. this as iraqi prime minister maliki refuses to step down amid the country's worsening political crisis. not exactly clear what's going on in iraq right now but serious developments. doug luzader is live in washington with details. >> reporter: this latest report this morning that the u.s. is going to begin

sending arms directly to the kurds because the reality is they may represent the single best hope to take on this terrorist army, isis. that combined with this fresh round of airstrikes is the idea at least that's been supported by many republicans. >> i would be rushing equipment to irbil. i would be launching airstrikes against isis. they have to race to boundaries -- they have erased boundaries between iraq and siege. i would be providing as much training equipment as i can to the kurds. i would do a lot of things that we cannot have to wait for maliki to leave. >> and speaking of maliki, he sits in the middle of a huge drama playing out in baghdad refusing to step down. he may mount a legal challenge to remain as prime minister. the u.s. is trusting him

less and less these days. and it certainly complicates the president's selling his iraq strategy even to democrats. >> the bottom line is this, there is so much we can do to help the iraqis help themselves but ultimately they have to save their own country. >> as far as arming the kurds, again, this is breaking news this morning, we don't know what form those arms are going to be in. remember, they're going up against isis fighters that have stolen their arms from the iraqi military. they are very, very well provisioned. back to you guys. >> they were able to take two towns back since we were able to give them arm and a little bit of air coverage. >> has there ever been a more predictable series of events? the united states pulls out of iraq and the country collapses. couldn't you have predicted this? of course. >> nobody wanted to hear about it. everybody said we're tired of iraq. even republicans and democrats. let's just leave.

the surge worked. they needed residual force. no one wanted to talk about it anywhere. but the bottom line is the president's on the record going on both sides of this issue telling mitt romney i wasn't going to leave troops bogged down there, saying on saturday it wasn't my decision to not leave troops. but he made no effort to work with al-maliki or break the deadlock with al-awlaki to get something done. he never picked up the phone until it was october to say we'll leave with the agreement i was left with. >> the phone is seemingly used here in the united states as some would say but not with foreign affairs as it should be. telegraphing to some that he would not not take action, telegraphing inaction, as said, did he underestimate? is he the underestimater in chief?

>> he underestimated isis, underestimated libya. he underestimated putin. he underestimated in several other areas. he's been commander in chief or the underestimater in chief. we can't afford the president to underestimate this colette. >> we heard people say bush is too distant. he's a micro manager. this guy is not even present. time and time again whether it is the i.r.s. scandal, whether it is obamacare, all of foreign policy, he's comploatly surprised by -- he's completely surprised by developments. >> if you read casey's book, they say president bush was on the phone with car -- with karzai and al-maliki. he had al-maliki doing things he didn't think he was capable of. here's the key. it is not sunni against shia against kurds. the sunni are angry at the

shia and the kurds want to be left alone. but isis is different. isis is a threat to us. islamic extremists look at america as the problem and look at america as a chance to establish themselves like al qaeda did by hitting us. >> they have a huge target. they have a lot of money behind them. we're talking at least million of dollars. >> billions. >> billions perhaps, brian, as you stated, behind their mission here. if we're not careful and do not act properly, they are on their way here. listen to colonel ralph peters and senator lindsey graham. >> the most addictive substance on earth is human blood. the islamic state is addicted to human blood. even the nazis didn't film public beheadings. this is something they didn't do. we are doing virtually nothing to stop it. this is a threat to

america, a threat to the world. it is beyond islamists, it is a death call. >> since bin laden has died there are more terrorist organizations with more safe havens with more money, more weapons and more capabilities to attack the homeland than there was before 9/11. mr. president, if you don't adjust your strategy, these people are coming here. >> it's the one element missing from the president's address. it's not so much i don't want to go back into iraq. i think what he should be saying to the people of the united states is isis is different. their goal is to dominate the region, blow away israel at the same time attack us. they have shown their capability. they show their ruthlessness. they are crucifying people and burying them alive. they kidnapped 200 women and started spreading them out. we know how to defeat them. we defeated them before. they need to be stopped. separate from iraq's problems. isis is separate.

the problem, but they are not the major issue. al-maliki going in or out does not affect isis. >> they are certainly not contained. they are a mission that includes a method of mass killings. >> rest easy from his command center on martha's vineyard, the president is playing a mean round of golf tonight. >> fund-raiser tonight. back to the oval office on the 17th. >> not surprising to see that on his schedule for the week. heather nauert is here. >> i've got a story out of missouri and it started as an evening of peaceful prayer vigil and turned into violent protests exploding after an unarmed teenager shot by police over the weekend. hundreds of protesters

looting stores and stealing from a.t.m.'s in a st. louis suburb. they grab items from a shoe store and run out of the smashed windows. the storefront destroyed. one of the protesters set a convenience store on fire near a gas station. police in riot gear on the streets trying their best to control the situation. at least 32 people were arrested. a desperate search underway off the coast of hawaii for a sailboat that was caught in hurricane julio. you can see that boat. it is a 42-foot boat, three people on board. it sent out a distress signal. it was about 400 miles off the coast. a plane was able to reach it but 30 foot waves prevented a rescue of the crew. a 660-foot container ship is in route to try to help out. >> a day at six flags turns into a nightmare when a roller coaster rider gets stuck. they are tilted on the side for about five hours. two dozen passengers were

stranded 75 feet in the air in the hot sun at a theme park just outside of washington, d.c. in maryland. fire fighters eventually rescuing them one by one. look at that right there. >> we are strapping the individuals one car at a time, we are strapping the individuals into place and then we're going to manually release the car's restraint. >> we still don't know what caused that ride to stop but the ride called joker's jinx they say will stay close until the park completes a full investigation. the emotional teen drama the fault in our stars winning big. >> the biggest challenge was ensuring we brought as much truth to the table as possible because the script is so beautifully written because it's based on a perfect novel. >> that movie picked up several awards including best actor, best on screen chemistry. did you know they have that category, best on screen chemistry? hunter games also a big

very considered very considerate. >> what about joe biden? >> when he goes to wilmington insists on have the military aide at least a mile behind him. he doesn't want to look like he's ostentatious. that means if obama were taken out or couldn't perform we would be defenseless. >> he's also got this habit. >> i'm glad someone is at least thinking about the neighbors, though. i'm serious. i live in washington. the secret service shut down streets. good for biden for being considerate, i think. >> he's got a naked issue. >> biden has this habit of skinny-dipping at his pool in wilmington and at the vice president's residence and it offends female secret service agents. it sounds funny but it makes them very

>> a personal favor for bradley cooper. it is typical for secret service corner cutting. >> overall you have tremendous respect for the secret service who have committed to giving their lives, taking a bullet for somebody. that is part of their job description? >> the agents themselves are brave and dedicated and will take a bullet for the president. but it is the management cutting corners. you saw what happened with the prostitution scandal which i broke. you saw the salahis intruding at a state dinner. these are obvious symptoms of a problem. but behind the scenes it is in the book first family detail. >> ronald kessler is the author. another great book. >> meanwhile three minutes before the bottom of the hour. a man finds a car in flames but instead of running away this hero runs for it. we'll give you details.

after? >> absolutely before. it's very possible, the employers we see that are effectively managing health care costs are sin -- chronized and have an idea for what it will cost prior. the c.a.t. scans in new york city will be billed between $2,200 and $2,500. the actual cost is to deliver that service might be $200 to $300. you have this enormous delta between what is charged and what it costs. >> do i get my h.r. department to fight for me or do i say you've got to get that price down or am i better off doing it before i go in there? >> definitely better off before you go in there. the employer is betting off setting off the limit they will reimburse providers for in advance. we have a client in indiana, a public entity

that put limit in their plan document, communicated this to the workforce and had a tremendous impact on their overall spent. they reduced their health care spend by 55% one year, largely by these steps. >> the second tip is look up the actual cost. you also say if possible avoid going fot e.r. -- to the e.r. >> stay out of the e.r. altogether. >> unless you're bleeding or something is broken. >> there are good sites, america hospital directory.com, ahd.com will give you the published cost, what it costs a medical provider to deliver the service as opposed to what they charge for the service. that is critical information for an employer or employee to have in any negotiation. >> on the urgent care. these urgent cares are stepping up. you can go in any time without an appointment and get looked at. are they cost effective?

his assistant res going to take a look at to see if it makes sense. >> i mean, there's no question that the bullet destroyed jim brady's life and it hastened his death. it doesn't seem crazy to call it homicide. what would stop a prosecutor from bringing charges? >> there are some factual problems that it has been 33 years. there's got to be a demonstration that the bullet wounds were the proximate cause and there is a question of whether it's the bullet wounds or his age. there are questions about, you know, can you legally bring it? i mean, he has been through one trial. the constitution only gives the government one crack at it, so you have to make sure that there's not double jeopardy issue. and there is the emotional part of it. do you want to put your community through this? mr. hinckley has effectively

been segregated from the community since 1982. so there's the punishment aspect. all these things go into the prosecutor's -- for what it's considered to bring the case. >> from what i can tell, he has passes to leave the psychiatric facility and he has for years. my impression is he spends an awful lot of time outside any supervision. do you think that's right? >> it is right. he has been around. if more people recognized him, you'd probably see him on the streets. but keep in mind, he was found not guilty by reason of instanty, he is being treated. freedom is all ri relative. i don't think any of us want to be under that kind of control. he really hasn't, for the last 33 years, had control of his life the way he wants to. anything he wants to do, he has to get permission for. >> well, when you shoot a president there are strings attached. >> i'm sorry?

>> when you shoot a president, there are strings stachd. >> absolutely there's strings attached. he measure the punishment. he has not had the life that most u.s. citizens are used to. and i think it's just one of those things that any government agency, the prosecutor has to look at in determining whether to go forward with charges. >> interesting. we'll be following. thanks for coming on this morning. >> glad to be here. thank you. coming up, a fox news alert followed from the terror on the track when racing legend tony stewart's sprint car hit and killed another driver. we'll hear from two witnesses who are there. they watched the whole things happened before their eyes. they'll tell us what they saw. >> and then why in the world is elisabeth hasselbeck dumping ice cold water on herself. wow. stay tuned for that answer.

tragedy. also developing this morning, the u.s. launching another round of air strikes on isis in iraq. the terror group, why are we now just taking action? a former cia operative says the white house knew about this a long time ago. >> we've been warning military and intelligence personnel have been warning since easily last year. >> those are the dire warnings. the president's response? golf

well, what i love about our setup out there, lucky strike has come down here to tell us about national bowling day. you have arms go over the bottom and set up the pins manually, and they have these little tracks where the ball rolls back. >> and that's how it used to be. >> that's why with ralph cramdon, i didn't want to knock too many down because people would have tout put them back up again. >> so tucker is in for the steve. >> great to see you. >> nice to have you back in the saddle again. let me tell you what is coming up. there is so much flus breaking right now. the u.s. launching five more air strikes, taking out key isis positions. you're looking at some of them now. this is we are now providing arms to kurdish fighters battling the militants to happen to be also protecting our people who are right in that region at

a confrequent. douglas is live in washington with new details. >> good morning. this is a big deal. this is something the kurds have been calling for, a number of republicans have been calling to provide more assistance to northern iraq. the idea here is to put them on something more of a level playing field. remember, these isi militants stole a lot of arms from the iraqi army as are iraqi army retreated. the u.s., meantime, taking on more air strikes, taking out isis targets that are encroaching or the kurdish capital and trying to protect those members of the yedizi religious sect that have taken refuge on a mountain top near syria. getting back to the arming of the kurds here, one change we've seen is the fact that these arms

are going to by provided directly to the kurds rather than going through baghdad, which is typically how the u.s. operated in iraq. it may show a growing distrust of the iraqi government, the fact that we're bypassing them in this process and the other big factor here that you can't ignore is this guy, iraqi prime minister nuri al maliki. he may be mounting a real legal battle here to challenge being eventually challengeds as iraq's prime minister. we'll see how that plays out. clearly, if he sticks around as the prime minister as iraq, that's going to create all kinds of complications for the obama administration. back to you guys. >> thanks a lot, doug. >> can anyone be really surprised by this? you pull out of iraqi, it's a fractured company with at least three separate groups that hate each other, of course it's going to fall apart. and they weren't prepared for this, the white house? >> the thing is, the people making it fall apart aren't the

iraqis. these are the people who got together with arms, battle plans, got together, ousted -- in iraq. plowing the field and fertilizing the ground for an insurgency. isis has tens of millions behind them in terms of cash to support their mission of takeovers, threatening to have another 9/11. everyone should be concerned, but as you said, not surprise. mike baker who is with the cia says there is no surprise at all. there were warnings ka came to the administration as far as back as a year. >> we've been warning, military and intelligence personnel have been warning since easily last year about the build up of isis and the potential threat and their intentions. they've been very clear for well over a year about what their intentions are. so it's disengymus to see you're

surprised. the foreign policy team we currently have i don't think could organize panic in a doomed submarine. there seems to be a serious disconnect between what's going on in the real world and the policies coming out of the white house right now. >> so hillary clinton of all people seems to have danced herself from the president's version of what could or could not have been done. she says in an atlantic article that if it was up to me, i would have armed the syrian free army, therefore, there would have been no need for isis to come in and fill the vacuum. turkey supplied all this material to isis. and if hillary clinton claims to have had her way, we would have done what john mckab wanted to have done, something that the president has described three different times as a fantasy. interesting. but ron forney, a long time ap political corespondent covered the president. he summed it up perfectly i

thought the other day on special report. he said the president is the underestimator in chief. >> this is a president who underestimated isis, he underestimated what was going to happen after libya. he said that in the "new york times" pup underestimated putin. he underestimated in several other areas. he's been the commander in chief or the underestimator in chief. >> general hamm is among the people saying you are not going to have much success with an aerial campaign. there has to be some type of ground campaign. >> senator lindsay graham says if we don't do something now -- we should have deny something long ago, but if we don't do something now, they are on their way here. >> al badhdadi, he was in jail,

he got out. if we hadn't let him out, this could have prevented the whole thing. moving on, tony stewart, the nascar driver, struck and killed a fellow driver on the short dirt track and now investigators say there is no evidence of criminal intelligence. by the way, the family of mr. ward, the slain man, really unleashing this morning on tony stewart, calling him names, very, very upset. don't seem to take him at his word that this was an accident. >> i'm sure that they are absolutely heart broke sxn devastated and shocked all in one. >> the county sheriff had this to say. >> at this very moment, there is no -- there are no facts in hand that would substashate or support a criminal charge or indicate criminal intent on the part of any individual. there are no foregone conclusions made at this point. we are looking for any information, any relevant

evidence that will help us to come to a final determination as to why this happened. >> so essentially what you saw, the video that we showed you is you'll see kevin ward jr. wreck. he believes tony stewart is responsible for it. and they start driving under a caution flag. he gets out of the car, all black, black helmet. it's race at night, not well lit. and they say -- the people, eyewitnesss say that tony stewart aups car was behind anterior car that swerved out of the way from hitting kevin ward and then revealed ward standing in the middle of the road and then ward would be hit by stewart. >> there were some also that thought there was acceleration at that point. they'll be checking the conditions of the track itself. did they slow down on the race, all the things brought into question in this investigation. we spoke with two eyewitnesss, a father and son who were there to say they believe that it was an accident. >> tony stewart is professional at what he does. anybody -- i mean, it could have

been a local guy in tony stewart's position. no one wants to intentionally hit another driver. >> my assumption on the speed up was just basically, you know, tony stewart, you know, sped up to avoid an altercation on the track. these are athletes, they're in competitive situations. and they're looking to win or at least do as well as they can. when they feel as if they've been denied that opportunity, their emotions can get the best of them. >> we'll see what happens. he's been questioned three different times. the sheriff who talked to him said tony stewart is extremely upset. >> that was logan and michael messerly. they were there, just a father and son trip. do you think this was intentional? tell us what you think. >> go to our facebook page and tell us. a lot of you are more experience watching these races than we are. >> if you have video of this, investigators are looking for other people who may have shot

iphone video of it. >> meanwhile, heather now is poised to give us the rest of the news. i have a story that happened last night. it was supposed to be a peaceful prayer vigil but it turned into a real riot. exploding violence out of the state of missouri after an unarmed teenager is killed by police. hundreds of protesters looting stores in the st. louis suburb of burgason. you can see them as they grab a whole bunch of stuff from the shoe store and run ott of the broken window. the group set a convenience store on fire and started stealing from that store's atm. you can see it topple right out on the street. there were about a couple hundred of them out there. two officers were hurt. at least 32 people were arrested late last night. a desperate search is now under way at this hour off the

coast of hawaii. this is a 42-foot sailboat with three people on board. it sent out a distress signal from about 400 miles off the coast. a plane was able to reach that area, but there were 30-foot waves. that prevented a rescue. there is now a container ship 660 feet long and that's en route to try to help. dwayne "the rock" johnston says he is grateful after his mother and a cousin survive a horrific car accident. they were hit head on by a drunk driver. take a look at this car right there. that is an escalade. amazingly, they are okay this morning. the actor instagramed this photo and tweeted this, the most important thing is that my family live through this and we can hug each other much tighter these days. he posted this photo, trying to put the best light on it. he was visiting his mom and his cousin in the hospital.

glad they are okay. the emotional teenage drama, the fault in our stars, winning big in this year's teen choice award. >> the biggest challenge was ensuring that we brought as much truth to the table as possible because the script is so beautifully written. >> michael kamara loved that movie. that movie picked up several surfboard trophies. and then the hunger games was also a big win. josh huchinson named best actor, lucy hale taking home the surf board for her show and then the singer arianna grande voted best music vocalist. >> the teen choice, it was my choice not to watch. >> anyone gives me a surf board for winning, i don't know.

unless it folds up, i probably cannot travel with it. >> i'm more boogie board, anyway. coming up, doesz of roller coaster riders stranded 75 feet up in the air this weekend. >> and then caught on camera, the moment a small leak ignites an entire gas station. >> we're back. ♪

the u.s. carried out five more air strikes yesterday. but as the administration grows to act, is our enemy gaping ground? lieutenant general tom macanerney. general, first off, are you happy with the strategy as it currently is being implemented through the air? >> what kind of strategy? five targets? no, i am not 's not a strategy. those are less than pinpricks. we need to be hitting at least 200 targets a day and it must be a very offensive air campaign and it's an easy air campaign for u.s. forces. >> without intel on the grouped, is it hard to find targets? >> no. anything moving is an enemy target. it's isis. it hit.

>> you think we can be effective through the air? >> absolutely. i know we can. the peshmerga took two towns back yesterday. if we put in an afwresive air campaign hitting 200 targets a day, isis can't move. the operation is to protect kurdistan and our allies. it is not to work the problem in baghdad. >> but what about the president saying no victorer, no -- >> i don't know what that means. >> i guess he looks at the kurd, all of them as equals. >> we must defend them with all the power we've got. it's an easy air campaign. 24/7, uabs, bombers, fighters, and it doesn't take a lot to do this. >> general dempsey knows this.

do you think he's pushing for that or do you think he is powerless? >> well, i'm not sure about general dempsey. if he isn't pushing for it, it's like benghazi. he didn't push for doing something in benghazi before or during. i'm not sure that general dempsey knows how to use air power. >> wow, as a marine. now let's talk about hillary clinton. she gave heads up to the white house that she's coming out with an article, an interview in the atlantic that's critical of their strategy, especially when it comes to syria. they claims that she would have armed if they had listened to her the free syrian army early preventing the rise of isis. hooefr here is the quote. i know the failure to help build up a fighting force of the people who were the originators of the force against assad left a big vacuum which the jihad have now filled. your take? >> i happen to agree with her. i'm not sure why it's just coming out now.

i was pushing for the free syrian army. they were a huge help. we ended up arming the wrong people over there and, remember, isis was formerly al qaeda in iraq. look at what we have now created -- we didn't create it. but by doing nothing, we let it create itself. by doing nothing now, we have a huge problem not only in the middle east, but generally. >> general, i love the way you started this. with your experience, air power could do significant damage to our enemy, isis. thanks so much for joining us this morning. >> thanks, brian. coming up, straight ahead, a new warning for parent hospital res seeing a spike in choip child poisoning from something you use every day. we'll share that information. and 50,000 illegal immigrant children set to flood or schools in a few weeks. what impact will that have on

influx of children faces them. but specifically, what are we dealing with? >> the first thing so keep in mind is public schools across the country are keenly aware that they have a lil legal obligation to educate all children, including migrant or immagatory children. but now with the number of children coming over without parent of guardians, it's the n unaccompanied status that is a concern for schools. >> so you say they have an obligation under federal law, they have to educate kids who show up here illegally. but what about the kids who are born here, who have the right to a decent education and aren't getting one because of this? >> that's a great question, tucker. in 1982, the supreme court ruled all students had a right to public education, regardless of whether they were here legally or illegally. so i think the question for schools now becomes how do we

balance our resource toes make sure that all kids are getting the services that they need? one thing i think that is important to keep in mind is the fact that it's going to vary. when we're talking about -- i guess the numbers that would he have seen are 50,000 or 60,000 students coming in now. and when you divide that by, say, the 14,000 school districts across the nation and even further by the number of schools in a district, then the actual impact in numbers of students per school is rather small. and that's going to vary. a larger district is going to be more well equipped likely in urban centers like miami. >> francisco, where does the funding come from here? every child obviously adds additional cost, additional teaching time, time to understand what language they are speaking, where they exist on the teaching platform here. where is the funding coming from? >> those are all terrific points. one of the issues that we don't know is what the education level is of many of these children, whether they've been to school

at all. we don't know what there are language is. we can't just assume it's spanish. it may be a dialect or some sore of indigenous language. we don't know. that is a challenge. the funding pore public schools generally comes through the state. each students gets a certain amount of funds. and we do that by head counts, right? so at the beginning of the year, for instance witness states generally take account of the number of students and then the school districts get that money. so it's going to be important to know exactly when the kids are coming and when they leave so that they can be counted for purposes of getting that money to local school districts. >> francisco negrone, general council national schoolboard education, thank you for that explanation. we appreciate it. coming up next, this wild video taken at a park. what is it? and then it's national bowling day. we are celebrate, food, fun and a few gutter balls the.we're sdmiting it.

stewart, 20-year-old kevin ward jr. walked on to the racetrack and was soon struck down by stewart's car and killed. the can you think driver died from his injuries almost immediately. stewart has issued an apology. he is cooperate, police. but this isn't the first time that tony stewart has been involved in an accident or been described by others as reckless. so what happens next in this investigate? >> any chance criminal charges have been filed here? >> it's unlikely. the sheriff came out and said this is not a criminal investigation yet. the evidence needs to be established that tony stewart didn't slow down when he should have or he intentionally went towards ward in an effort to hit him. it's going to be almost impossible, i believe, based on the videos that have already surfaced that are going to be able to prove that fact.

we can't see into tony stewart's head. so i don't believe there is likely to be a criminal case here. >> so we're already seeing wartd's family attacking stewart on facebook. so it's not inconceivable they filed a suit against stewart. how likely is it a civil case will occur? >> a, it's a different burden of proof. there's a chance of winning. and b, the lawsuit basically is essentially based on negligence. not an intentional act, but a negligent act. another car did go by peacefully. the question is whether or not stewart didn't slow down or somehow negligently or recklessly swerved, put his foot on the accelerator. there are some people that said he throttled his car. >> we interviewed two of them

this morning, pretty clear he accelerated. why he accelerated is the question. can he take this into account? we're going to put up on the screen some of the past incidents stewart has been involved in. there was an incident last year at the track. he had a fight with fellow driver joey logano. he committed he caused an accident that broke another driver's back. >> when we think about who motivated tony stewart for causing this accident or being involved in this accident, i think as a matter of law, however, his bad boy reputation, his aggressive reputation is not going to be something that is spoj for a criminal charge. you can't be charged for a crime based on your prior bad acts. if, in fact, the evidence supports either a man slaughter or a homicide case here, then a prosecutor is going to argue about bringing in his reputation.

maybe it goes to motive or plan or intent. but even then, it's a difficult thing to bring in prior unrelated bad act to prove a prior crime. >> i'm wonder whag kind of advice stewart is getting. yesterday we spoke to someone who knows his well. at of so k 10:00 a.m., they were planning on racing. they were saying that in public, which if you were their lawyer, would you advise that? >> i would advise to stay clear of any press, any publicity, any racing. there's a lot going on with stewart. i agree his reputation likely will not come into evidence. but my thought is stay out of the limelight, stay at home. the less you're out there, the better. >> so smart. thank you for coming on this morning. coming up, your kid takes it to school every day. but do you know there is a whole list of dangers hidden inside?

the backpack, your child wears could be dangerous. what you need to know before you buy one. but first, on this date in 2003, nato took command of the isaf in afghanistan. in 2006, the tsa banned all liquids, gels and arizoi air sa aerosol ss.

welcome back. time for the answer to today's trivia question. the answer, hulk hogan. congratulations to canton from texas. well, the school year is just around the corner. parents know it. but do you know what's in your child's backpack? it turns out you may want to think twice before packing some common items. they may be harmful. joining us now is megan meaney with details. so the backpack seems pretty benign. >> there's a lot to worry about. this is a quick checklist that i think all parents should go through. number one, they shouldn't have medication in their backpack. but between aergs and add and everything else, some kids end up with something in there. >> even if it's something simple as an inhaler. >> the inhaler is one thing some kids are allowed to scary in schools. if you have a friend who has medication in their backpack,

you don't touch it, you don't test it, they don't know your medical history and vice versa. but the thing to do is the medication should be out of the backpack at the nurse's office. but just talk to a kid. anything from claritin to tylenol. >> chemicals? >> there one i couldn't believe. there is a chemical that was banned from toys, but was never banned from school supplies. so what it is, it's a toxic plastic. what you're looking for is shiny, flexible and that plastic that really has that -- >> that's everything. >> you can smell that smell, right? you know that smell. i'm not saying all these things here on the table definitely have it. the trouble is, things aren't labeled properly. >> what does it do? >> everything from birth defects to learning disabilities to asthma. buy something cotton to polyester. i love itsy ritsy.

everything is cotton. you're good to go. but avoid the vinyl last plastic. tell me how we are to avoid electronics? >> you can't avoid electronics. the danger is all the information kids keep on them. number one, they need to have smart passwords. i asked my son who is 8, i didn't know, what is the password on your ipod touch who plays games. 2525. love you, honey, but we need to work on that. it's too easy. and that's common with kids. we have changed it. so they need smart passwords, letters and numbers, right? >> so protect information here and be careful with the information that they carry in link to their backpack. >> they can get right into amazon and sharp shopping. >> put your name as a parent and their work phone number. i'd rather have them find the

bag than find your kids. >> you are saving parents across the nation. that you can so far for backpacking safely as it comes to school. coming up, rioting overnight. we're going to give you details on that. a teen shot by a cop. more from st. louis. new fiber one streusel.

races legend tony stewart questioned again about running down another driver. was it intentional? the late oeft that this morning. and overnight, the white house authorizes new air strikes against the terrorists in iraq. but the president planned crackdown has an unlikely critic. hillary clinton. using the word "stupid"? and a simple tv remote made a baby go crazy. >> do it, do it.

>> it's the cutest video you'll see all day. mornings are better with friends. >> man, what a day for you to come back off vacation and a what a day to have an extra day. >> good morning. police need the help of people who were at that race over the weekend. we are talking about -- well, this morning, the death of kevinward jr. police are trying to figure out exactly what happened. was this accident intentional? police have questioned nascar champion tony stewart twice, but they have not charged him, saying there is no evidence of any sort of criminal intent. some are point to go stewart's troubled history off and on the track. but others, like logan messerley are now defending him.

>> tony stewart is a professional at what he does. no one wants to intentionally hit another driver. a lot of people -- a lot of drivers and people that race these cars also say that he may not have seen him. >> stay tuned, we'll be joined by bill dilner for a closer look at this story. >> a desperate search is under way at this hour. look at that boat right there. it sent out a distress signal when it was 400 miles off the coast. a plane was able to reach it. but 30-foot waves prevented a rescue. the ocean is expected to be calmer today, so that makes a possible rescue a whole lot easier. there's a containership en route to see if it can help out. well, the 17-year-old who has been charged in the murder of a little girl is about to be charged in washington state. 6-year-old janese was found in

the mobile home park where she lived with her family four days after she disappeared. her parents say janese was able to roam around that neighborhood on her own because they said it was a safe neighborhood. police saying he lived near janese and forensic evidence links him to the murder. those are your headlines. see you back n here in about 20 memberships. we have a lot of news going on. overnight, the u.s. launching five more air strikes, taking out what they say are key isis positions. this as fox confirms the u.s. is finally providing arms to our allies. the kurdish fighters battling militants. doug has the details live in washington. >> good morning. and the united states taking a renewed focus now on northern iraq. talking about sending direct military assistance to help out the kurdish fighters there. a kurdish representative told

fox news that this is exactly the kind of thing that they needed. he alleged the central government in baghdad is not passing along u.s. assistance to the north as it was supposed to. >> the share was worth $200 million. it was given to the leadership in baghdad prime minister maliki. it was put in the air base in taji. i never got delivered to the forces. had that been delivered, today they would have been able to with stand the forces. >> will this be enough to turn the tide? and the president is facing critics who say the u.s. needs to do more and isis ultimately has the united states in its cross hairs. >> his responsibility as president is to defend this nation. if he doesn't go on the ovbsive against isis, isil, whatever you want to call these guys, they are coming here. this is just not about baghdad, this is not just about syria.

it is about our homeland. and if we get attacked because he has no strategy to protect us, then he will have committed a blunder for the agency. >> and as far as sending assistance to the kurds, one thing to note, the united states is bypassing the central government in baghdad. generally that aid would be sent to baghdad, baghdad would send it to the north. that's not how this is going to happen this happened. that may be due in large part to prime minister nuri al maliki. he is fighting for his job right now. he clearly does not have much u.s. trust. so the bypass here may be partially a snub, but also an indication that they think it's safer to deliver toss arm directly to the kurds rather than rely on someone like maliki. >> right, who has been sarveing the kurds. on top of that, al maliki eventually lol lost all of his allies. he placed his forces in sta

teejteej ic strategic areas in baghdad. >> president obama thought he could get through two terms without taking responsibility or ownership of the situation in iraq and that clearly isn't working out well. he is not tornlg architect of our iraq policy, but he's had it for six years and he is taking the blame not just from republicans and on the right, but apparently from hillary clinton, his former secretary of state. she just did an interview in which she clearly leveled criticism at him in his stewardship of iraq. >> in an 8,000 word interview with atlantic magazine where she said this, taking a shot at the obama doctrine. quote, great nations need organizing principals and don't do stupid stuff is not an organizing principal. it may be a necessary break on the actions we might take in order to promote a vision. seemingly, some what say she's taking advantage of the 60% of

americans that believe in recent polls the president is not doing well when it comes to foreign policy. >> and she talked about syria. she said, for example, there was a period of time where we could have armed the syrian rebels. now, at the same time in which the president, 48 hours earlier, gave thomas freedman of the "new york times" saying, totally opposite. she said -- he said arming a former or -- engineer who started out as a protester and suddenly see themselves in the midst of a civil conflict taking on an established army would not bear any fruit. however, hillary clinton says you're wrong, that's who who they were. that's the same thing mccain has said. they were a potential formidable force. so you have discrepancies now -- >> she sounds like lindsay graham. >> but she really is -- i mean,

what's so interesting is i think she means some of this. clearly some of it is political. >> 2014 is not too far away. >> on the other hand, this is consistent with her views. she voted to authorize force in iraq in 2003. she has a very different view from obama. my question to her would be, really? you were secretary of state for all those years? did you just parrot the president's policy.? where were you when you worked there? >> well, i do belief you appears to the president because he's ultimately the decisionmaker. but i do remember succinctly after coalin powell got out of office, he was critical of the president. however, coalin powell wasn't running for president. so people just wonder where she's coming with this. however, if she is going tie ownership -- she got her way in libya and the president said that was one of his biggest mistakes. >> but you can't look at libya and all those terrible things

included in benghazi and say it's a better, more stable country since we killed gadhafi. >> unless you claim that not acting left a huge vacuum. that is where she stands now. the approximately in recent polls is striking out. moving into an election season, is this about global security or is it about skoouring a position in the white house for hillary clinton? >> general macaneary joined us earlier and this is his stru of the credit kim somg from the democrats and from hully. >> that's not a strategy. we need to be hitting at least 200 targets a day and it must be a very offensive air campaign and it's an easy air campaign for u.s. forces. i was pushing for the free syrian army. general paul bowley went over there several times, was, woulding with them. they are a huge ally. we ended up arming the wrong

people over there. isis was formerly al qaeda in iraq. and if we don't stop it now and stop it and protect the kurds, we are a huge problem, not only in the middle east, but globally. >> the turks have been arming the rebels because they don't like assad. but they were arming the wrong rebels. we might have, according to the general, armed the wrong rebels and the syrian army who started the protest and revolution in syria have been overwhelmed by al qaeda which has morphed into isis. how did we let that happen? gradually. we kachd falluja fall, we hit mosul, when that fell we said oh, my goods, where did this come from? who could have foreseen this? and the answer is we could have all foreseen this, but no one was paying attention. >> chaos is the worst thing ppts the very worst because it allows people to take control. and there's something worse than having secular strong men in charge. i'm sorry, there is, much worse. isis.

>> i think you are right. >> and if you elect to be out of control on their way hooep here, they may come. >> they're scary. you think assad and gadhafi are scary, these guys are really scary. >> but after a series of lekdzs in iraq, we left the situation in that country where it was calm in iraq. and the president ran on the fact that iraq was peaceful. >> they didn't claim it when it comes to global terror. >> in come the enemy and it's al qaeda. al qaeda and islamic extremists are our enemy, too. >> well put. up next, continuing coverage of the tony stewart stri striki officer, the latest on where the investigation goes from here from fox sports reporter bill dilner who has been following this race all weekend.

and talk about getting caught with your pants down. the kid who just can't seem to catch up. >> right. because he's mustard.

no peace.

>> a fox news alert, hundreds take to the streets of st. louis rioting and looting, protesting the death of an unarmed teen shot and killed by police. and that is where we find now ktvi reporter rocky madden. what can you tell us? disturbing. >> oh, it's a very frightening night here for so many citizens. it is calming down now, the last report we had of people breaking into a store a couple of hours ago. this is a convenience store. after they looted, they burned it, sprayed graffiti on the outside. three workers inside. they went to the back, took cover inside a room, locked the door, called security for the company. they got too scared, put on jackets to cover their uniforms, ran out the back door. they said if they would have stayed, they fear they would

have died. a frightening night here. let me give you some numbers. police say at least 12 businesses here that were looted. this is the one we know was burned also. but that number is expected to go much, much higher. as far as injuries, no civilian-reported injuries at this point. two police officers hurt. we understand one hit in the head with a brick, one injured knee. we don't think either a life threatening at this point. as far as arrests, we're hearing 32 people in jail at this point. but they expect that number to go higher. >> rocky, thank you for being with us this morning on that chaotic incident there. brian, what do you have? >> let me tell you the latest on this story. a new york sheriff says criminal charges will not be filed against three time nascar champion tony stewart. he left one of his fellow racers dead. 20-year-old kevin ward jr. jumped out of his wrecked car presumably to confront stewart.

we won't show you what happened next. it's too grisly. rob, first off, on these developments, are you surprised no charges will be pressed from the video that you've seen? >> well, i think the sheriff's department has said that the investigation is ongoing right now. so they're trying to collect all sorts of material, eyewitness accounts, as well as asking anybody that has any amateur video to come forward and distribute that to them so they can investigate further. of course, we will be waiting on another statement from the sheriff's department today. we'll have the latest on race hub on fox sports at 5:00 p.m. >> how rare is it for a racer to get out of his car under a caution and point to another racer? >> it's honestly not rare. i've been covering racing for almost 20 years. and i've seen this on several different occasions at short tracks across the country.

racing is an emotional support and racers show their ee meshl in many different ways. i've seen this on several different occasions from the highest levels of the nascar sprint cup series down to the short tracks of america. what kevin ward did is something we've seen on several occasions every single year that i've cover motorsports. >> well, i'll tell you what, the new york daily news has a story today from one of kevin's friends who says he and tony stewart have a history of not liking each other. they've raced against each other a lot and they've always had a thing for each other. they seem to have gone at it a few times and there seems to be somewhat of a history. do you know about this history inspect. >> i know they got into an incident a couple years ago in a sprint car race. and that's about the extent that i know of the so-called rivalry between the two.

i've heard stories here and there in the nascar garage area yesterday at watkins glenn. but i think the big question here is everybody is questioning the intent for tony stewart after reviewing the tape several times and knowing tony stewart like i do, i do not believe there was anywhere intent whatsoever for tony stewart to have his car hit kevin ward when he was walking down the racetrack. so i think that's the most clear cut factor in the entire investigation. >> i hope you're right and i think you are right. rob dilner, thanks so much. neen while, 20 minutes now after the hour. straight ahead, people look forward to shark week on tv all year long, but now it's happening in real life and people getting ready hurt. another attack just happened. and do you still sit down for dinner as a family? breakfast time, making sure this family has dinner to it. we're forcing them.
