4:00 pm
we didn't think so. from figuring it out to getting it done, we're here to help. new detail emerging about the co-pilot prosecutors say committed mass murder aboard a crowded jetliner as heartbroken families struggle to cope with their loss. this is a fox report. memorial services are being held across france in honor of the victims killed in the this week's germanwings tragedy. prosecutors say that 27-year-old andreas lubitz deliberately crashed that plane into the french alps, killing himself and 149 others. multiple reports say he had been struggling with vision problems which could have jeopardized his flying career. his fiance also reportedly dumped him just one day before
4:01 pm
that plane went down. and a potential link to the crash site. we are learning the co-pilot may have visited a flight club nearby as a child. and a club member says lubitz's family were regulars there between 1995 and 2003. all those revelations come as crews continue the grim search for victims. greg pal cot is live from dusseldorf, germany, where lubitz lived. greg, what more do we know about this co-pilot? >> reporter: heather, just a couple blocks from where we are right now 200 german investigators are looking into that very question p what is there about this man andreas lubitz, what drove him to do this? there have been reports that it's believed he was suffering some kind of vision problem, maybe real maybe psychosomatic but maybe he felt that might drive him away from flying.
4:02 pm
and maybe that's what drove him to this terrible accident this past week. some speculation he visited a hospital nearby here to deal with that problem. we reached out to the hospital tonight, they weren't in a position to comment on that one way or another. more reports, too, health about what is being found in the house. he lived in an apartment along with another family home about five miles away from here. medicine a lot of it, according to the german media was found inside the house. severe depression, he was suffering from, according to a variety of reports. also a lot of notes a lot of notes to himself. we can't confirm that breakup the day before the crash but there are strong indications there were serious personal problems that could have precipitated these problems as well. heather? >> greg, where does the investigation go from here? what happens next? >> well i think what we're going to be seeing after the next couple weeks is the investigators focusing again on what was the motivation.
4:03 pm
getting a lot of people's attention today, the german newspaper said it was his ex-girlfriend. she recounted him saying "i will do something that will change the system." what was he trying to change? was the crash the thing that he wanted to do. also she recounted him waking up in the middle of the night, in the middle of a nightmare screaming "we're going down." was it really just the demons driving this terrible act? and as you noted, the grim search across the french southern alps to find the remains of the bodies will continue. the indication we have is that this will be a very long, painstaking process. there are families there, there's mourning here. we've just been in germany for about five or six hours and i can tell you, having lived here, it's a tough country it's a strong country, but the people here are hurting they want answers, there is grief everywhere. in fact, we just got a word that
4:04 pm
there's going to be a very important, very large memorial in the next city over in a couple of weeks in cologne at their large cathedral. the nation mourns, the world mourns and asks a lot of questions. >> i don't know if we'll ever fully get those answers and the mourning just now beginning as you mentioned. thank you, greg. well, turning now to the ongoing nuclear talks with iran. the negotiating taking on more aggressive tones on both sides. the state department telling fox news that "serious but difficult work continues." secretary of state john kerry in switzerland ahead of tuesday's deadline for at least a framework of a nuclear agreement. iranian diplomats, meantime, already appear to be casting blame if the talks fall apart. iran's foreign minister taking to twitter with this quote. "in negotiations, both sides must show flexibility. we have and are ready to make a good deal for all. we await our counterparts'
4:05 pm
readiness." that being said israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and many lawmakers in congress fear the obama administration may be too flexible with iran especially amid reports that the u.s. may allow iran to operate centrifuges at a heavily fortified underground site. now, that would be in exchange for limits on centrifuge work at other facilities. iran's also demanding viewer constraints on nuclear research. peter deuce zi is live in washington tonight. peter, does it look like a deal will get done? >> it's hard to say, heather since the iranians are letting the whole world know that they've probably budged as much as they are going to budge. so now the state department says this, it was important that ministers began to arrive for consultations coordination and negotiations today. the serious but difficult work continues. we expect the pace to intensify as we assess if an understanding is possible. so the state department says there's a way to go, the iranians say they're waiting for
4:06 pm
rest of the world to appreciate whatever concessions they've made. heather? >> peter do we have any hint about what that final agreement may look like? >> physically heather it's probably going to be two or three pages long according to a report by reuters. and that text will lay out how much nuclear research iran is still allowed to the and how quickly or how slowly u.n. sanctions against them will go away if they satisfy the other world powers that they are negotiating with. but after that there's a lot of unknown because the white house has not laid out much of a game plan for the relationship with iran after a deal. and not knowing those details is very concerning to israel. >> the world has just gone crazy. i mean, the president of the united states is exchanging love letters with the ayatollah hamanahi who is shouting "death to america" and at the same time snubbing the leader of his closest ally, israel. the president of the united
4:07 pm
states is sleeping with the enemy and at the same time doing nothing about the terror which iran is causing havoc with all over the world. >> the sit-downs if switzerland have been in different rooms with different diplomats rotating in and out. but it's all off limits for us and it may stay that way until tuesday, the day that everyone must agree on a framework for a deal ahead of a final deadline in june. heather? >> thank you, peter. well, the u.s. now confirming plans to increase support to saudi arabia as the saudis continue air strikes against iranian-backed houthi rebels in yemen. the majority of the aid expected to be in the form of bomb logistical suppssible assistance with midair refuelling of saudi fighter planes. both saudi arabia and egypt are vowing to see iran's influence in yemen gone and they've not ruled out using ground troops to drive the rebels back. yemen's ousted pro-u.s.

4:09 pm
countries to help defeat them. iran denies sending money to and supporting the shiite houthis. still sunni arab countries like saudi arabia are deeply concerned about tehran's growing influence in the region. as the violence escalates in yemen, the possibility of a regional sectarian war between sunni gulf arab states and shiite iran seem to be growing heather. >> connor powell thank you for that report. meantime, the u.s. military rescuing two saudi pilots who had to bail out of their aircraft. centcom confirming to fox news that pilots ejected on thursday over the gulf of aden. they were taking part in air strikes against the houthi rebelsrebel s in yemen. right now, an american hero fighting for his life after being shot in the face during a traffic stop. the details of this tragic shootout and then this. police giving everything they've
