3:00 am
to be broken. thank you, everyone, for your comments. >> have a great day. "fox & friends" starts right now. hi, friends. good morning. today is thursday the 30th of april, 2015. i'm anna kooiman. thousands of protesters take to the streets in six major cities. hundreds are arrested after clashing with police in baltimore. the sun is about to rise, and the curfew was just lifted for a second straight day. we're live on the grounds with the latest. and a bombshell new report this morning about what allegedly happened inside that police van carrying freddie gray away. it could change everything you're thinking about what happened. we'll tell you all about it. then help the property testers and you can skip an exam? that's an outrageous proposal
3:01 am
from one law school dean. and despite everything you're seeing, mornings are better with friends. this is a fox news alert. thousands of americans took to the streets last night. new york, washington, d.c., san diego, indianapolis. 100 people were arrested here in new york city alone because they were blocking traffic. in baltimore, it was a peaceful night of protests regarding freddie gray. the 10:00 p.m. curfew put people off the street. meanwhile, of the 200 people who were arrested in baltimore a couple nights ago, the authorities released half of them last night. >> wow. yeah, plus you have 3,000 national guard there. for the most part, they went in when the curfew kicked in about 10:00. it's a distant thought, but it's not to local merchants.
3:02 am
the industry is really being brought to its knees. bars and restaurants, everything like that has stopped because of the unrest and fear of what's going on. there's even more news last night, which will have many scratching their heads. >> absolutely. this is another fox news alert. it's an overnight bombshell new report from "the washington post" saying that a prisoner who rode inside the baltimore police van where freddie gray was claims that the 25-year-old was intentionally trying to injure himself on the way to the police station. he did not see what was going on with freddie, but he apparently heard him. >> keep in mind it was just a week after he, freddie gray, was put into that police van that he died of a broken neck essentially. the big question has been, did the cops break his neck during the arrest or during the rough ride back to the police station? well, according to this blockbuster report in "the washington post" -- and we should point out that the information was gathered from a
3:03 am
search warrant where they're trying to get one of those police officers pictured there to check for dna evidence. anyway, according to this search warrant affidavit, the person on the other side of the gray metal partition in the back of that van could hear freddie gray, and it sounded like he was trying to hurt himself. >> big question is, did he? >> and it sounds like something that's crazy. why on earth would he did trying to hurt himself? according to law enforcement officials, there was one on sean hannity's show last night, said it was not uncommon. >> we've heard this before, that he was too irate to buckle in. we don't know from a toxicology report, if there was a toxicology report, if he was on something that would make him want to do something like that. again, this is one prisoner who wants to be anonymous, obviously for his own safety. we'll see where this goes because on friday, the state attorney general will actually get this report. >> we thought we would hear the
3:04 am
report from the police department themselves. instead, what the police department is doing is they've put it all together and they're going to give it to baltimore's state attorney tomorrow. then she's going to have to figure out whether or not she's going to charge the police officers, whether or not she presents all of this information. also in this "washington post" article, it was interesting because it talked about freddie gray was not strapped in, in the back of the police van. as it turns out, they just changed the rule for baltimore police officers three days before he was actually arrested. they e-mailed it out. apparently, giving the police officers benefit of the doubt, it wasn't at roll call, but it was a brand new rule in baltimore. >> so you have this thing happening right now. the state's chief prosecutor is going to have a lot of pressure on her shoulders to look at what the information is and then come up with a decision.
3:05 am
don't expect a major announcement on friday. that's just when the information comes into her in what police have concluded in their investigation. meanwhile, all six officers who were involved are suspended. >> that's the nuts and bolts of what we know now. another question swirling around is has there been a rush to judgment? we showed you that video box of four different cities. do these protesters, is their grief -- are they rushing to judgment with the small amount of information that we already have? sheriff david clark, who was on fox news channel last night, says there's a possibility that they are, and the president may be doing the same. listen. >> i stood in utter disbelief last night as the president of the united states once again a big swing and a miss. if this was horse racing, he'd be stumbling out of the gate. with football, he'd have been flagged for a false start. he continues to make some very
3:06 am
general comments about the ri s rioting and looting and it's wrong and goes on assault against the american police officer. he said something to the effect that police have to admit this stuff is not good for them. i said what stuff? the facts, the truth? why don't we wait? >> the sheriff talking about hue the president has been quick to point the finger at the police. given this bombshell new information that according to somebody who was in the van with freddie gray that day, it sounded like he was trying to hurt himself. let's just wait for the facts to come out. >> and just to point out, the guy couldn't see him. he just heard him. >> he heard it. and it sounded like he was trying to injure himself. that according to the search warrant. me meanwhile, another fox news alert for you today. protests across the country in solidarity with the baltimore protesters. demonstrators flooding streets and big cities across the country to support freddie gray.
3:07 am
>> some marches turned violent, like here in new york, where at least one officer is injured. there are reports of more than 120 arrested. >> peter is live in baltimore, where police just lifted that mandatory curfew about one hour ago. good morning, peter. >> reporter: good morning, anna. we're waiting this morning to see how this uneasy city responds to the news that freddie gray may have injured himself, especially now that we know that of the 200-plus rioters and looters arrested here on monday, half have been freed and are back on the street because paperwork and figuring out who arrested who was getting too complicated. for the second night here, a curfew enforced by the national guard kept the peace. we haven't heard any overnight reports about police injuries here or major property damage here as details emerge that monday night things got worse because officers were told to
3:08 am
let people loot. >> these guys were going through hell, and all i could hear was retreat or stand down, stand down. this was over the radio. i heard it with my own ears. i couldn't understand for the life of me what was going on. >> and it's not just here anymore. more than 120 were arrested in a big new york rally. boston and minneapolis protested as well. the protests are spreading out away from maryland as we have seen yesterday to places without a curfew and places without a national guard presence. back to you. >> peter, thank you very much. meanwhile, also in the district of columbia at the university of district of columbia law school, the dean there sent out an e-mail yesterday saying to all of her law school students, hey, you can put off an exam if you go represent some of the protesters who were arrested a couple nights ago. >> extra credit. this is what the letter said. the police accountability
3:09 am
movement needs and will continue to need to be the best lawyers that we train. it is our aspiration that you become the future of the legal support for the most important cases of the next generation. it is critical that while we pay attention to what is going on today that we not lose sight of the essential role you will play once you pass the bar. we need to invest in you to be prepared to play that role. >> little research into the school, should not be surprised by the dean's sensibility. turns out the tuition is a fraction of other law schools. 75% of the students get scholarships, and they're all hoping they go into that portion of the law. >> go support the protesters, and you can put off an exam. how about supporting the police officers that were injured? more than a dozen of them on monday night. how about you do something about the businesses that were torched and looted? >> clearly it sounds like she's on the side of the protesters.
3:10 am
she also wrote, we would be pleased to support a student-organized teach-in. i wonder if they'll get extra credit if the kids riot while they're over there. the other thing, how smart is it for the dean of a school to be sending her students into a zone where the national guard is patrolling because it's dangerous? >> great point. and we don't have all the information either. think about what happened with michael brown and the don't shoot narrative that proved to be false. >> top of the hour now. a lot of other news. >> this coming out of nepal, where there's not a lot of good news lately. overnight, we're learning about two new miracles from that devastation in nepal. new overnight, rescuers pulling a 15-year-old boy alive from a crumbled buildings in kathmandu five days after that deadly earthquake. crews say he was trapped between
3:11 am
two collapsed floors. and brand new pictures released this morning. they show the moment that rescuers found a baby boy alive in the rubble more than 22 hour after saturday's earthquake. this child was just four months old. what a beautiful discovery for those rescuers. that child, no injuries whatsoever, we're told. more than 5500 people across four countries have now died following that powerful 7.8-magnitude quake. back here at home, a developing mystery on the road. eight car windows have been shattered in the last nine days, raising significant fears about a serial shooter in colorado. the frightening incidents are. th -- happening along interstate 25. a woman was shot in the neck when driving home from work last week. she needed surgery. she was released from the hospital last night but is otherwise okay. police claim there's no evidence of a serial shooter. they say it appears to be a random act. interesting. well, an out of control
3:12 am
russian spacecraft now on a collision course with earth. the unmanned cargo ship suffered a major malfunction shortly after a successful launch on tuesday. engineers lost contact, and it started to spin out of control. the ship is expected to burn up in the earth's atmosphere within the next few days. it was carrying three tons of supplies to the international space station. astronauts there say they will get by without fresh food, water, and clothes. and this is a case that's guaranteed to make you lose your appetite. unbelievable. a baker in austria is under fire this morning for this cake, which is made to look like the 9/11 terror attack on the world trade center. the baker said he made that cake as a political statement against austria's coalition government. there's elections coming up in october. he says the two towers represent the two political parties. a lot of mail in on that one. >> whatever happened to traditional cake?
3:13 am
>> stupid. heather, thank you very much. 12 minutes after the hour. coming up on "fox & friends," a father under fire for taking his kids to the boston marathon. the principal is not happy about this patriotic lesson, but that dad is not backing down. he's here live. and amid the chaos in baltimore, hillary clinton sounds off on the pattern in america. >> from ferguson to staten island to baltimore, the patterns have become unmistakable and undeniable. >> and now she has a plan to fix it. but is it a good one? we're going to debate how she would like to reverse her husband's plan. move the world.

♪ all right. he took his kids to cheer him on at the boston marathon. now this philly dad is under fire after the school informed him the absences would not be excused for his kids. but in an epic response, he writes this. >> in the three days of school they missed, they learned about overcoming adversity, civic pride, patriotism. also, pay tribute to the victims and learned no matter what evil may occur, terrorists can not deter america's spirit. these are things they will not ever truly learn inside the
3:18 am
classroom. this letter is now going viral, and that dad joins us now. good morning, dad. thanks for being with us, mike. >> good morning, anna. good morning. thanks for having me. >> congratulations, first, on finishing the marathon. it takes such physical and mental strength to be able to do something like that. but you weren't just teaching your kids about how strong you were. what were you trying to teach them? >> it was a really multifaceted educational experience for them. not only did they see me, you know, train hard for the marathon, suffer an injury close to the marathon, and overcome that, the death of my grandmother the day we left, and then perseverance. it was a big family moment for us in that sense. but we also wanted to make this an educational trip because of boston and all the great things boston has to offer. you know, here in philadelphia, we have a lot of history and the kids know about that. it was important for us to expose them to the same kind of thing in boston. so we tried to make it educational as well as fun. >> wow. here's what the principal wrote to you, even though you took your kids out, they missed
3:19 am
school. he writes, i understand that your family recently took a family vacation. i want you to be aware that the school district does not recognize family trips as an excused absence regardless of the activities involved in the trip. but you aren't going to take that sitting down. you understand the general policy. you don't understand why it applies here. >> no, i'm not looking for special treatment at all. we knew the policy going in, and quite frankly, we weren't asking for them to be excused. i also want to point out that it's not a beef with the principal. she's a wonderful person. it's unfortunate this has made her this bad person, this monster. she's great. the school, we love the school. we love the teachers. it's this policy that really needs to be changed. a parent should be allowed to take their kids out for whatever reason they see fit and not get a nasty letter when they return. >> especially because you see all the upside to them not only spending it together but
3:20 am
watching you overcome an injury as well as everything else with the boston marathon. so are you surprised by how people have come out on your side around the country who don't even know you? >> yeah, it's been -- honestly, it's overwhelming. there's a lot of support and there's a lot of people on the other side of the issue, which i appreciate. i like there's a dialogue. i hope it's a constructive dialogue that gets people talking but in a positive way. i hope that this can affect some change somehow. really, i truly believe the education system is great, but the parents really should have a big say in their child's education. >> yeah, and from what we know about you, mike, it's not like you're letting the kids out to go play on the slip and slide or have dive contests. you're chaperoning field trips, highlighting videos for them. anyway, we think it's amazing what you did. we encourage other parents to do patriotic things like that. thanks so much.
3:21 am
>> i appreciate it. thank you. >> mike rossi, good job. straight ahead, calls to investigate hillary clinton, but she's more concerned about cracking down on the cops. really? i can't believe it. victoza. for a while, i took a pill to lower my blood sugar, but it didn't get me to my goal. so i asked my doctor about victoza. he said victoza works differently than pills, and comes in a pen. victoza is proven to lower blood sugar and a1c. it's taken once a day, any time. and the needle is thin. victoza is not for weight loss, but it may help you lose some weight. victoza is an injectable prescription medicine that may improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. it is not recommended as the first medication to treat diabetes and should not be used in people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. victoza has not been studied with mealtime insulin. victoza is not insulin.
3:22 am
do not take victoza if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza or any of its ingredients. symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include swelling of face, lips, tongue or throat, fainting or dizziness, very rapid heartbeat, problems breathing or swallowing, severe rash or itching. tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck. serious side effects may happen in people who take victoza including inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) which may be fatal. stop taking victoza and call your doctor right away if you have signs of pancreatitis, such as severe pain that will not go away in your abdomen or from your abdomen to your back, with or without vomiting. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you have any medical conditions. taking victoza with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. the most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, and headache. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems.
3:23 am
if your pill isn't giving you the control you need... ask your doctor about non-insulin victoza. it's covered by most health plans.
3:24 am
a fox news alert. amid fresh protests and growing unrest over the freddie gray case. hillary clinton delivered her first policy speech, speaking about a broken criminal justice system and to trust her with her plan to fix it. >> from ferguson to staten island to baltimore, the patterns have become unmistakable and undeniable. we have to come to terms with some hard truths about race and
3:25 am
justice in america. >> but did hillary clinton really provide a solution? let's talk to our law enforcement panel. joe cordero is a retired new york city police department inspector and founder of the cov cordero group. heather hanson is an attorney. we thank you all for joining us live. i thought the interesting thing was ultimately what she was saying. she was talking about her justice plans. she said, it's time to end the era of mass incarceration, something's wrong with criminal justice in the united states of america. yet, a lot of the things she was talking about date back to policies instituted by bill clinton, her husband. so essentially, she's saying, i want to be the anti-bill clinton when it comes to this. >> and she's living in the past. she talks about the system being broken for african-americans. she's right about that. but there's another side of the equation here where the african-americans are also very hard on the system. we know the bureau of justice
3:26 am
statistics shows in 2010, back americans were eight times more likely to commit homicides than white americans. that also needs to be addressed so we can help that mother who's beating up on her son because he was in with those riots. we need to address both sides of the equation in order to get to it. she's just looking at the low-hanging fruit. >> sure. joe, two of the things bill clinton did when he was president of the united states was he cut education money for prisoners. he also expanded the use of military equipment to local police. gee, doesn't that sound familiar? there have been calls ever since ferguson about the militarization of the police department. she's saying we got to fix it. of course, the guy who screwed it up is my husband. >> you know, quite frankly i think what we have here is an attempt to deal with, you know, social issues and social policies that have failed over decades. and the easiest way to do that is to blame someone. so we create this idea based on several instances that have occurred recently that the police are to blame. >> sure. >> and as long as we start to
3:27 am
focus or continue to focus on the wrong things, we won't get to real issues. won't solve any real problems. >> bill, it seems like she's jumping on the headlines this morning. the blockbuster news out of "the washington post" this morning that apparently there was a prisoner being transported along with freddie gray that day in baltimore. according to the police confidence, he could hear something going on. could see freddie gray, but it sounded like freddie gray was trying to injure himself. there's been a rush to judgment. now hillary clinton is out there talking about restoring trust, which is crazy because over half the country doesn't trust her. >> i think the point here is that it does need to be the police to have to defend themselves. seems like the first choice are doing things wrong, the police are the ones who need to then be put in check by either using body cameras or have some type of other supervision. the other thing is we're also talking about the suggestion of decriminalization. we're talking about the fact if the numbers don't add up the way
3:28 am
that hillary would like, let's change that. let's decriminalize certain things. >> why would she be saying that? >> it certainly falls into politics and votes and who's going to be supporting her. if you want your train to be on time, they just move the window of time in which the train will be at the station. if we do that, then of course there will be less criminals in jail. it goes to the contrary to what she stated on her president's policy. three strikes, you're out. >> we know the bipartisan groups, the koch brothers even, are looking to do some of this criminal justice reform. it seems easy to say that. same thing with the body cameras. real leadership comes from new ideas, things people aren't talking about. dr. ben carson talked about bringing the family back together. we have governor kasich who's talking about a police board. we need leaders with new ideas, not the same ideas everybody can
3:29 am
agree upon. >> sure, and talking about body cameras, apparently there was some bill to give body cameras to the police in baltimore, and the mayor vetoed the bill. >> regarding body cameras, they're great. i think they're a great addition to the police arsenal. they also are creating false expectations. the idea that cameras are rolling all the time, the fact video is going to be made available to the public in general, that's not necessarily the case. there are instances with body cameras where they'll be turned off. any time you have an incident, the automatic assumption is police are in misconduct. >> all right. thank you. zplnc coming up, once a college president caught partying with the students. >> quinnipiac students are the greatest students in the world! [ cheers ] >> now he's making enemies with the neighbors. what he's saying this morning. then a deadly shark attack.

3:36 am
thought. i thought there were just some people watching. they were like, no pictures, no pictures. but i hear that all the time. i guess, you know, some people just didn't like the idea of me photographing what they were doing. >> how would you describe what's happened over the last two nights? have you felt has threatened? do you feel danger around you? >> no, because -- well, they kept me off the streets the last few days. last night it was very peaceful. the protests that marched through baltimore down to city hall and back up to where they started, you know, that was very controlled and peaceful. i kind of stayed above it. i saw it from a garage. >> let me ask you one real quick question. that is, on monday, i heard and read online something about it sounded like some of the gang members were actually protecting members of the press because they wanted the story out there. was there anything to that? >> yes. one of the people that reported
3:37 am
that was a colleague that i work with. you know, he said that, yeah, there was a gang member who was hanging close to him and sort of said something like, you know, you're all right or something to that effect. i haven't talked to him directly about that. but yeah, that's what i heard. >> you, on the other hand, getting pushed down and stomped and kicked just for trying to do your job and tell the story. we do thank you for trying to get the word out about what's going on there. you should never have to go through that. thank you so much. >> no problem. thank you. >> thank you. all right. heather is poised to deliver additional news. >> danger off the coast of maui to tell you about. a 65-year-old woman killed by a shark. snorkelers found the woman 200 yards from the shore near a popular surfing spot. she appeared to have been bitten in the torso. this in maui. the victim's name is not being released at this time. that beach will remain closed all day. this is hawaii's first fatal shark attack of the year.

3:40 am
all right. from time to time, we're going to be talking to people well known, whether in finance or acting or sports or anything else that comes to mind that, have some degree of notoriety to see what their life is like on the streets of new york or wherever they're from. the first one we looked at, we had a chance to talk to, was the world heavy weight champion. considered the second best pound-for-pound fighter in the entire world. also from the ukraine. so we started at hard rock. we went down to where he fought over the weekend. that's in madison square garden. >> fires the left hand. >> vladimir klitschko. >> want to go for a stroll? >> let's do it.
3:41 am
>> here you are, the wba, the wbo. >> he's got four heavy weight championship belts. this is the first time we met. i didn't know what kind of tension there would be between us since we were in the ring together. >> i remember we fought each other and you were trying to hit me. there's actually a lot of guys in the ring trying to hit this moneymaker. >> what do you call it, the moneymaker? >> the moneymaker. i have this quote. >> he said, this may be the end of vladimir klitschko klitschko heavy weight contender story. >> he was writing me off. he's pretty much done. and they didn't know they're talking about the most dominant heavy weight in the current
3:42 am
history. >> not only do you want to be the best in the world, you want to be the best in your house, correct? your brother. >> there's always going to be someone better than me. that's my brother. >> you always think he's better than you? >> without him, i wouldn't be boxing. i love my brother so much, and i also respect him for what he is inside of the ring, but mostly even right now outside the ring. >> the star of "nashville" is your girlfriend and the mother of your child. >> we met and my heart told me, this is her. but nothing is as exciting as the birth and creation of our love, which is our child. >> so heavy weight champion, father of a 4-month-old daughter. things are going pretty good for you. >> i can't complain. i've had my ups and downs in
3:43 am

3:47 am
a fox news alert. look at this. new cell cam video. an explosive new report about the death of 25-year-old freddie gray in baltimore. a prisoner who was allegedly -- he was in the van with gray at the time, could not see him but could hear him. he says he could hear freddie gray apparently trying to intentionally injure himself. all right. that is the latest. >> but the details, you know, it's still a mystery. and the report police promised to release by friday won't be made public after all, brian. >> so what happens with this investigation? what are we expecting to see on friday and hear? let's ask judge andrew napolitano. first off, on "the washington post" story, what's this to the investigation? we have a prisoner who didn't see him, hears him, says he's throwing himself around. >> i'm sure the prisoner has been interviewed by the police or by the prosecutors in
3:48 am
baltimore and would have to give reasons why he came to that conclusion. are the prisoner's opinions relevant? here's the law. the police are responsible for his life and his safety while they're in his custody. their level of responsibility is ratcheted up when the arrest was unlawful. so we're going to go all the way back to the first issue of whether looking at the -- making eye contact with the police and running is a valid basis for an arrest. it is clear it is not. did the police know something else about him that they haven't revealed to us? now we learn two things last night. one, this prisoner's allegation. so heard but didn't see. you might want to discount that or say it's very interesting, we have to interview this guy. two, the report is not going to come out tomorrow. now, this is not the old soviet union. the government cannot manipulate or should not manipulate public opinion by the timing of when it reveals things. this is a democracy. the public is entitled to know the truth no matter how harmful
3:49 am
or unpopular that truth may be. >> so the police department is wrapping up their investigation. they're taking the report and giving it to baltimore's city prosecutor. >> which adds another level of prop problems. >> she's only been on the job about 100 days. she's married to a counselman who was working for liberty mutual insurance. her husband represents in the city of baltimore that district. she's got this choice. all right, what do i do with the cops? do i impanel a grand jury? what do i do? my husband's constituents aren't going to like anything about it. >> so is her decision going to be political or professional? she has a great deal of professionals in investigators, professional trial lawyers that work for her. or if it's so political, should she pass this decision off to her boss, the attorney general of the state of maryland, who is at least removed from the local
3:50 am
politics. bottom line is the government must be transparent. we have the right to know what happened, whether it makes the police look bad, whether it charges them with a crime, or whether it exonerates them. >> and i got a practical conclusion, which i think is honest and just reasonable. if it turns out for some weird reason that he just reasonable. if it turns out for some reason he actually hurt himself, the people aren't going to buy it unless there's video. >> correct, correct. we may never know the truth or the truth may be too difficult to accept. but keeping all this information from the public is what fuels these demonstrations. which unfortunately have now come here. >> all right. across the country. >> yeah. >> judge, thank you very much. >> you're welcome, guys. coming up on this thursday, j jeraldy face to face with another angry protester. >> i can see you. >> what do you see? >> i see a person -- in my face. >> yes. >> trying to -- >> i'm in my job and telling
3:51 am
white america stop not giving a damn about black people. >> he joins us live to talk about that top of the hour. >> wow. then the food police kicking preschool? a mom packing cookies for her child and got a nasty note from the teacher. the teacher. blan blank he said humira is for adults like me who have tried other medications but still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohn's disease. and that in clinical studies, the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief. and many achieved remission. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores.
3:52 am
don't start humira if you have an infection. if you're still just managing your symptoms, ask your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, remission is possible.

. okay. a cookie crack down at a colorado day care. yep. a 5-year-old girl told she was not allowed to eat her oreos packed in the punch and then sent a note home scolding the parents about nutrition. that mother is fed up and telling the school to leave her daughter's lunch alone. lisa peerson's here and her daughter natalie also join us. all right. how shocked were you to get the note and uneaten oreos?
3:55 am
>> i was completely shocked. you see a letter saying that your kid's not eating healthy and you don't know what to think about it. >> right. but basically, here's what the note said. this is a public school setting and all children are required to have a fruit, vegetable and healthy snam from home along with a milk. so, fruit aside, your reaction? do you think -- you didn't think they were knew traditional valuable. you know she liked them. >> she loves cookies. she always eats healthy so oreos, it didn't really -- we don't pack unhealthy lunches all the tile. we thought no big deal. >> will you stop giving her oreos? >> i don't think we're going to send her to school with oreos again. there's only a small number of days left in school and going
3:56 am
with the normal healthy lunch that she's always been going with. >> right. something tells me she's not a regular viewer. she's up so early. i understand. the dean is on your side, right? does not think your teacher should have sent that note home and you should be able to have whatever snack you want. >> i don't know if the dean's on my side. she won't talk to me. the school district, they won't return my phone calls. the dean is just ignoring us. so i hear she's -- >> this is what she said. the dean said it is not school policy to tell parents what children can or cannot eat. she's on your side but not speaking to you. >> even though she spoke to my iffiancee on tuesday and she ve short, would not even speak about anything. >> mark "fox & friends" as pro-oreo and pro-lisa.
3:57 am
thank you so much. appreciate it. >> thank you so much. all right. straight ahead, geraldo face to face with a protester. >> what do you see? >> what do you see? >> putting his face in my face and trying to stop me from doing my job. >> i'm telling white america stop not giving a damn -- ...this isn't that car. the first and only car with direct adaptive steering. ♪ the 328 horsepower q50, from infiniti. he could install your your bceiling fan.e said he couldn't. and that one time ron said another chili dog was a good idea. yeah, it wasn't. so when ron said you'd never afford a john deere tractor, you knew better. now ron does too. introducing the e series.

4:00 am
hi, everyone. good morning. today is thursday, the 30th of april, 2015. a fox news alert, rye yolts sparked in baltimore spreading to six major cities across the country. the media under attack. >> i see you. >> what do you see? >> a person sticking his face in my face and trying to stop me from doing my job. >> i'm telling white america stop not giving a damn about black people. >> geraldo joins us live moments from now. a bombshell report could make the violence worse.
4:01 am
a prisoner on the other side of that van says gray may have been trying to hurt himself. >> i bet you haven't heard that. and students, would you rather take a test or go to a freddie gray protest? one school offering a controversial new option just before finals. not kidding. got a busy thursday. it starts right now. all right. here we go. a fox news alert. riots in baltimore spreading across the country overnight. packing the streets of new york city here. blocking traffic and scuffling with police. >> the nypd arresting more than 120 people and at least 1 officers injured in the melee. several small clashes breaking out and the police fighting to keep the peace. also with the protests
4:02 am
halfway across the country, in denver, a peaceful march turning tense as police were forced to use pepper spray to control the crowd. nine people were arrested. the curfew in baltimore was lifted about two hours ago and geraldo rivera was right there and joins us live. great to be with you. thanks for waking up with us. >> good morning. it was another one of those nights, extremely tense on the streets where the confulgration happened monday night. savaged by the young residents there. so many shops destroyed. so many, you know, other facilities for those impoverished people now made poorer by their own hand. >> sure. >> a very, very sad situation. one of the -- >> geraldo -- >> go ahead. >> i have a question for you. about to play 38 seconds of a very loud conversation you had
4:03 am
with one of the protesters last night. what -- before we watch that, what ticked him off? >> what's -- i'm sorry, steve? >> what angered him? >> he is, you know -- there is real anger on the streets. you have had a half century or more of failed and i hate to be political or feel philosophical about it. the entitlement society and the flight of manufacturing jobs have conspired to keep these people immeshed in poverty. in young man, one of many, filled with anger and frustration and also looking for notoriety. also looking to get his face on camera. there is undoubtedly an aspect of that, too, steve. >> well, let's watch it. here it is. >> say it to my face. >> you're an edge tater. >> who? >> me. >> who the [ bleep ] cares about
4:04 am
whether or not i'm agitating you? >> why are you coming back to cause trouble. >> you're causing trouble. you're telling white america a black man that cares about his city is an and yeah torment i'm the youth that caused the destruction, right? you're the type of american that's the problem. >> why do you care -- i see you. >> no, you don't see me. what do you see? >> a person sticking his face in my face trying to stop me from doing my job. >> i'm telling white america stop not giving a damn about black people sigh that the undertone? do you feel like the crowd really thinks that white people hate black people there? >> i think there is some of that, anna. i think it is undee niniable. i think that young man is an attention-seeking punk. whether his intention is sincere or not. when you run to the camera, there's an agenda there. to get your face on television. i lament that.
4:05 am
you know, that kid needed his mom to do what the mom did a couple of nights ago so notoriously. he needed his mom to get him off the streets. i must say, i talked about the failed democratic liberal policies of 50 years, last night, though, all kudos to representative cummings and state majority leader pugh. they did a good job despite the tension and ager in getting people off the streets. they got off the streets before that explosive "the washington post" report came out that "the washington post" report that suggests that 25-year-old freddie gray self inflicted those deadly injuries on himself in the police van. that is something that will hit this community today. it is a notion that he self inflicted these injuries that will be extremely controversial. let me if you give me a couple of seconds, we have an alternative theory to that that i think fox news viewers might
4:06 am
appreciate. just listen to this. despite "the washington post" report that a prison indicated that gray may have done self inflicted damage to himself in the van by thrashing around, i believe this theory is absolutely false. a much more credible explanation is that he had a seizure. it is well-known fact that seizures can occur in asthmatic patients under stress. please note that seizures are involuntary acts of uncontrollable muscle activity and can result in spinal cord injury. as a physician and a big fan of fox news, investigated. >> who is that from? >> a doctor who asked me for today, a prominent surgeon asked me to keep his name confidential. >> seems the bottom line is probably could be other explanations, too, but the issue
4:07 am
at hand is we don't have all the information. has there been a rush to judgment by this community? even by president obama when he was speaking out? >> well, i think that that is a fair assumption that there was a rush to judgment, particularly in the light of this kind of medical opinions about the possibility of seizures and self inflicted -- not self inflicted in the terms of him knocking his head against the side of the van and seems nonsensical to me but an involuntary seizure. he was prone to seizure. he was a chronic asthmatic. physically and mentally troubled young man but to have a seizure and you bolt up and you can injure yourself in those spasms. i have seen it myself and i think that's a much more logical explanation. i tell you another thing adding to the tension here, though, that autopsy report which would indicate whether it was an accidental death, a suicide or a
4:08 am
homicide promised to be released to the people of baltimore on friday. yesterday we were told that it will not be released but only handed over to the prosecutors. so you take the juxtaposition of the self inflicted injury theory and not releasing the autopsy, i think that adds to a kind of malignant skepticism to result in more disorder this evening and the days to come. >> especially with the "the washington post" article that has come out where they have seen police documents. it was a request for -- it was for a search warrant because somebody wanted one of the police officer's uniforms to check for gray's dna and that included the testimony of somebody who's riding in the van and could only hare because there was a metal partition and sounded to him as he was intentionally trying to injure himself. that's what post says. you have a theory of a doctor in baltimore saying he has a health
4:09 am
inju history in the past. >> and he wasn't buckled up. >> as you ponder it and say it, steve, doesn't it sound more logical than the explanation from a prisoner, a man with a lot to gain cooperating with the cops, that he self inflicted these injuries? people go to jail and very hard cases, you know, they could all hit their heads against the bars and, you know, it seems to me that we have heard that story before. this sounds to me much more logical. >> you're on the streets. for all practical purposes, whether that theory is 100% correct, yours is 100% correct, i don't think the people on the streets of baltimore will ever going to buy that he hurt himself. >> i absolutely agree with that. no matter what, we'll look at ferguson. my goodness. how many times can you have black people say he didn't have the hands up and let that legend has become fact. repetition makes it fact.
4:10 am
the fact is there's been a contentio contentious, hostile relationship between the community and the cops for a very long time. this community is still recovering from the 1968 riots following the death of martin luther king. >> the news overnight of the couple hundred people arrested in baltimore on monday night, they have released half of them. there was a plea that went out, we need law school students and somebody to help defend them and the dean at the district of columbia law school has put out a plea to her senior law school students and you remember this from your law school days, there she is, shelly broderick. she's saying we know you're studying for finals but we'll delay your finals if you go up to baltimore and says we would be pleased to support a student organized teach-in and sounds like the dean at this law school in the district of columbia is
4:11 am
clearly on the side of the protesters or is sympathetic to their plight. >> that there is absolutely no doubt, steve. i flash back to my days at brooklyn law school representing the young lords and the activist groups in the civil rights and anti-war movements. young people are liberal almost by nature the majority of them. you know? they say that if you're not liberal whether you're young, you have no conscience f. you're not conservative when you're old, you have no sense. i believe that this is part of a tradition that is longstanding. they can be filled with their righteous indignation in the safe confines of the law school. the dean can get them stirred up, you know -- >> is it irresponsible of the dean to do this, or do you think -- >> that's an excellent question. it's an excellent question. i believe that's a subjective determination. i don't know her. you don't know her. i am willing to cut her some
4:12 am
slack. i think, however, these kids better study for the exam to take them through life, not their involvement in this particular case. >> absolutely. >> yeah. they have worked for seven years to get this far in many cases. they should stay and take the test and then they can worry about public service. >> thank you so much. stay safe out there. >> thank you. thank you. >> you know who else needs the help of lawyers right now? the business owners, the innocent victim where is the livelihoods destroyed in seconds. probably need some help, too. >> yeah. how many of them are suing the -- baltimore because apparently the mayor reportedly said, look, it is just property. let them destroy it. >> yeah. she apologized for using the words thugs but not for saying let them have room to destroy. ahead, he used to live on bin laden's compound. now he is released to canada. whose idea was that and how he
4:13 am
might be getting out. >> what part of canada? one of the many casualties of the baltimore riots. a multi-million dollar senior center burned to the ground. it took years to build. a pastor who helped to develop it will be here to tell us live what's next. (music) boys?

4:16 am
4:17 am
well, lead earls in baltimore heartbroken after torching a brand new still not completed senior center that had been under construction since 2006. right now, from southern baptist church in baltimore, dr. hickman, senior is a pastor at the southern baptist church behind that development. pastor, what point were you told that the center was on fire? >> while i was on the west side organizing other pastors to bring about peace when the rioters had exploded. we were outside marching and quelling the chaos and towards the end of that march i was called that our center was engulfed in flames. >> and to take our viewers back to that night a little bit more, we remember seeing the images of police officers retreating and then fox news learning from a law enforcement official they were told to stand down. this while firefighters are battling this blaze and many others while these agitators are
4:18 am
taking razor blades, slicing the hoses where the water coming to diffuse this and help the problem. what do you think about that? >> it's -- could you repeat it one more time? >> what do you think about the firefighters trying to help the situation and the police not being able to stop these agitators? >> i thought it was just an overwhelming moment. the fire chiefs were helping us to put out all of the blazes. we were trying to help the police to get to dangerous spots to help what was ensuing in the streets. people were frustrated. we were frustrated. and then to see what we were trying to build for the community, be burned by some outside agitators broke our heart. they just didn't know the history of the church and the community. and what it is that we're trying to do. this is not ultimately baltimore. we have to quell that chaos. >> sure. and for folks who are unfamiliar
4:19 am
with the sorry, you worked for years to build this center. it was going to have 60 beds, halfway done. and now all that money up in smoke. i know you want to rebuild and we have got a very generous audience watching right now. how can we help you? >> donations have been being sent for the rebuild of the center. we're happy to report that our developers and general contractors will go right back to work. we're delayed but we won't be ultimately destroyed. we may be four to six months after the date of completion that we wanted to go in. and now we're focusing our efforts on building a bigger and better housing center and continuing the work in the community by demolishing all of the abandoned properties and bringing back affordable housinging in the east baltimore community. >> before you leave, you know, wisdom is your department. if you had some words to impart
4:20 am
to the troublemakers from that night regarding what they have wreaked on you and your community, your flock, what would you like to say to them? >> this violence does not help your cause. it does not help the vision to rebuild the kind of baltimore that we are looking for. i know you're frustrated. i know that you're angry. but the bible says be angry but sin not. we have to turn that negative into a positive. this cannot be our reflection. we cannot allow the world to see us acting and behaving in such ways. let us empower the community. let's articulate our pain in a productive way. >> amen to that. >> yep. thank you so much, doctor. senior pastor of southern baptist church there. >> once again to help, donate to southern baptist church.org. >> you wonder about the other businesses. will they reopen or rebuild like him? >> who has insurance?
4:21 am

4:26 am
razor is here, a former prosecutor. jonna to you first. does timing mat tore a prosecutor? >> if and only if they plan on impanelling a grand jury to investigate what the heck happened here. maryland has a public information act saying, look, we do not have to disclose the results of an investigation and especially if we plan on impanelling a grand jury to do further investigation for us. it would be imprudent. if i'm a prosecutor, i'm happy not to disclose yet. >> i'm a prosecutor. i get it. i'm only getting the police investigation conclusions, correct, steve? actually it's on my desk and a 35-year-old prosecutor doing this for a few months, 100 days. >> right. no, i understand, but see, the problem is that prosecutors across the country have always used this as a tactic to hide information from the public. i don't think that's necessary. >> in what way? >> here's the thing. when's the damage that would be
4:27 am
done if the information was released? i mean, the public has a right to know. what i would like to know from the prosecutors what's the reason? what is the damage that can be done by releasing the information? if there is none, release it. >> well, when you say damage, potential damage, knowing that whatever is in that investigation could result in anger? is that what you mean? >> one aspect. >> people get angry, find out about it eventually. holding it back is not the answer. what i'm saying is what their argument is somehow compromise their case by releasing that information. >> yeah. >> that's the argument. >> if there's going to be any chance of a grand jury investigation. that information can't be out there, can't be in the hands of the grand jurors before the determination. you have to let that happen and then diz close away. >> six officers suspended. we know that. we know we have one man dead and
4:28 am
took place april 12th and people saying i have to wait longer to find out what happened to a man in a short ride in a small van? >> exactly. this is my point. look. i think the system needs to be more open. it does. okay? because the fact is there's certain things that can be released that are not going to compromise the investigation and the prosecution. and if that's the case, let the information out. >> why does the public -- i don't mean to be facetious here. why does the public care? the family and lawyers should care. the public shouldn't care at this juncture. the citizens are not in danger. what's another two weeks, one month and mat tore the angry protesters? >> because what he represents to them. >> right. of course. >> what he represents to them is another burned down cvs. there's no right answer here. if they disclose that there's not going to be a prosecution, people are going to get angry. if they disclose there's a prosecution, people are still going to get angry.
4:29 am
there's no right answer. closed lips are better. >> closed lips? we are in an open society. this is a democracy. >> right now. >> if i don't close my lips soon, they'll yell at me more than they already are. thank you so much. timing matters as you see with the announcement of michael brown. one minute before the bottom of the hour. he used to live on bin laden's compound in afghanistan. now the former detainee might be released in canada. is this a good idea? bombshell in the gray case. a new report says he may have injured himself inside that van. so why do leaders on the left come out against cops so quickly? we'll ask the former governor of maryland bob ehrlich. are you ready to go grab life by the gills. would you like to make an investment you know will pay off? then you belong at bass pro shops. where great gear, great prices and the great outdoors all meet up.

new report about the death of freddie gray, a prisoner in the police van with gray and couldn't see him says he could hear banging against the walls and believes gray was, quote, intentionally trying to injure himself. >> so that brings up the question, did leaders rush to judgment in pointing the fingers at police officers too quickly? why not let the justice system play out? >> all right. with us right now, once again, joining us on monday, the former maryland governor robert ehrlich. bob -- i should say, governor -- >> hi, guys. >> first off, are we hurting the justice process waiting too long to get the information out to the public? >> possibly. but everything has to be complete here, really. all dots dotted here because so much distrust on the street these days. has to be a thorough investigation. if it takes another day, another couple of days, it has to get done. there's just too much questioning on the street obviously. still tense up there around west

"the washington post" is reporting that apparently a prisoner who was in the police van at the time that freddie gray was being transported to the police station could hear him and he thought he was intentionally trying to injure himself. you know, ultimately, he died a week later of a broken neck and people are wondering, you know, did the cops break his neck? did he break his own neck? i get where the tension's coming from. people want to see the medical examiner's report. >> everybody wants to play politics. everybody wants to play their theory and wants their sense of individual justice. i demand justice here and see it on the cameras but that's not the way the system works and there has to be one system and respect it. everybody might have political narratives here but nobody can afford to jump out with regard to their narrative because the facts are the facts and as we know facts can be very
4:35 am
inconvenient things. >> so will the public, will they take it for what it's worth? you know? if there's proven that what this prisoner in the van with freddie gray is saying is true, that he was trying to injure himself and that's what the report ends up showing, is the public going to buy that? >> who knows? who knows? that's from the leaders and the faith leaders, the community leaders, that's where the elected leaders need to step up. again, defend a system that everybody doesn't trust. but facts, again, are facts. >> right. governor, i'm sure you heard this report and fox confirmed according to the police, a high-ranking senior official among the police, they were told to stand down on monday night. this quote, also, come across. this is it. it says let them loot. it's only property. that -- >> from the may why are. >> that is from the mayor relayed to the senior law enforcement official. that responsible? >> no. no. it's not. and, you know, i have been sort
4:36 am
of defending her with regard to her choice of words but if that literally was the message, brian, if that was the approach given to the police, i'd hate to be one of those owners, store owners, one of the owners of the automobiles, that's not just not how we afford to operate in my view. very different philosophical views here apparently than giuliani and hogan and sickening for all of us to watch the police retreat and everybody reported it. we saw the film, the video. that's a disturbing picture in a lot of minds here. >> absolutely. there are calls and growing for the mayor of baltimore to resign. >> i mean, listen. she's elected mayor of baltimore. we're in this together right now. i'm not advocating that at all. everybody has to be on the same page. the governor, the community leaders, the faith community and the mayor here. but that's sort of approach to
4:37 am
this issue really doesn't help matters. >> all right. former governor of great state of maryland, robert ehrlich, thank you for joining us. >> my pleasure. for a look at headlines, here's heather. good morning. >> good morning. i want to start with a terrorist in gitmo for killing a u.s. soldier. he is about to walk free in canada. an unbelievable story to bring you right now. omar khadir was an al qaeda member and used to live at an osama bin laden compound in afghanistan. he spent ten years in gitmo after he threw a grenade that killed a u.s. army sergeant christopher spear in afghanistan in 2002. five years ago, he cut a deal to serve the rest of his sentence at a prison in canada. well, he just filed an appeal and a judge may grant him bail next week. the canadian government we're told plans to appeal that judge's decision. that is a story we'll watch carefully for you. this guy thought he can run
4:38 am
in sherman woods, california. he was wrong. he ran through a courtyard and a huge group of undercover cops and good samaritans grabbed the guy and they held him down until police arrived. the lapd says he was wanted for reckless driving and also auto theft. well, hillary clinton officially has some company to tell you about today. vermont senator said he's running for president as a democrat. he said he'll vow to fight income inquality, deal with climate change. he's set to outline the plans further in washington, d.c. later today. and whatever this guy did, it must have been really, really bad. listen to this one. there's an anonymous australian man paying $4,000 to have this message written in the sky in australia. it reads, love you, xx, i'm sorry. >> oh boy. >> the owner says the guy behind
4:39 am
the apology didn't seem to be heartbroken. he's just really, really sorry. >> one way to do it. >> nice touch. i love that idea. >> got to -- yeah, but he's gone public. we don't know who he is. >> she knows. >> he did something really big and bad. >> sure did. >> sounds like. >> put it in the pocket for later. >> hopefully we won't need it, heather. >> really big and good going on right now on the plaza. 48th and 6th. national ice cream day or free cone day? >> that's right. wonderful day. it's the free cone day and with us this morning is scott, a president of carvel ice cream. welcome. tell me what time to go to the store. >> hello, maria. today is free cone day. and everybody can come to our shops. between 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. for a free junior ice cream cone. >> the flavors are? >> vanilla, chocolate twist and our most popular nutella, as well. >> in addition to the free cone
4:40 am
day or free cone at stores, very important to point out that there's coupon books for sale for $2 and worth more than $20 in savings and this benefits the american red cross, right, for victims? >> basically help the disaster relief and red cross can send it anywhere including nepal and other places and the way the deal works, customer donates $2 and we give them a coupon book worth $20 and supports red cross and the disaster relief fund. >> thank you so much for being with us here this morning and free cone day 3:00 to 8:00 p.m. at carvel and take a look at the weather conditions across the country because there are some areas you want that free cone and that is specifically in phoenix, arizona, which could potentially see the first 100-degree day of 2015. so things really heating up in the southwest and the rest of the nation feeling very spring-like and we have a storm to track. could bring areas of rain across the mid-atlantic heading into the next 24 to 48 hours.
4:41 am
let's head back inside. >> could you make sure i don't melt out there? just a little -- i would like to be able to see me. >> i'll save you some ice cream here. you told me a nutella flavor? >> it is a flying saucer. that's a nutella dasher and soft serve ice cream. >> wow! >> famous crunchies and swirled across. >> bring all that stuff inside. >> yeah. by the way, your faces are on a cake out here. >> that was his point. >> he was hoping that wouldn't melt to not be saggy, draggy and baggy. >> not looking like macarthur park. >> looks so life like. >> it did. straight ahead on this thursday -- >> all right. i'll read now. president obama's first comments after the chaos in baltimore blaming the police. >> i think there are police department that is have to do some soul searching. >> what about the rioters? bob massi here next. a car up in flames and no
4:42 am
accident. why that woman did it on purpose! >> oh boy. but first, the trivia question of the day. born on this date in 1982, this young actress with a full resume including spider-man's lady and a french queen. who is she? >> that's an easy one. incredible!

let's go. >> congressman from maryland elijah cummings last night trying to enforce the curfew telling baltimore protesters to go home. clear the streets. this as president obama condemns the chaos that broke out in baltimore by pointing the finger at the cops again. >> i think there are police department that is have to do some soul searching. i think there's some community that is have to do some soul searching. but i think we as a country have to do some soul searching. this is not new. >> it is not new. fox news legal analyst bob massi joins us from las vegas. you heard the president of the united states made the comments of what's going on right now in baltimore. he makes it sound like, you know, this is nothing new. but it's something we need to address. >> one of the problems i have, steve, is when you have the president and you have people like eric holder, we have talked about it before, making sweeping remarks. you cannot paint people that -- it becomes an unfair statement.
4:47 am
and divides the country. now, is he correct that people have to look -- but the community vs to soul search. just like the mother who really didn't have to soul search. she got her kid and said this is not how you were raised. the problem i have is, listen. he is a lawyer. he supposedly taught constitutional law. you have to get the facts of a case before you make a remark because we don't know what happened that day, whether good, bad or ugly. okay? >> we don't. >> when you start making these remarks, it is areas causing more division and his words have caused so much division in this country over the years that it worries me and these men and women are out there every day to protect us. >> sure. >> you cannot sweep it like this. you just cannot. >> i think the president needs to reinforce some of the core problems. there is not a father figure in a lot of these households.
4:48 am
the mandate that you have got to finish school and you got to have a job. and unfortunately, as we take a look at some of the statistics, bob massi, the unemployment rate in the black community is through the roof. in 2008, when president obama was elected, it was at about 25%. in the latest data available, it's now at 27%. that's one in four. >> steve, the co-dependency and entitlements of the last six, seven years has not helped the people he said he wanted to help. you cannot continue to write paychecks to people that are capable of going out and working and providing. these, these men, these young men, i had to sort of -- i didn't laugh. i thought it was sad last night when on one of the shows, when they had a councilman saying on aren't these kids thugs? he said, no, they're teenagers. they're college students. if you're 18, 19 years old, out on the streets and don't have a
4:49 am
job -- >> throwing bricks at cops. >> and the bottom line is the fact, you are what you are. look, steve. we all, all of us, have to own up to what and who is causing these problems. you cannot as a culture continue to blame other people for your actions. there has to be responsibility taken. >> right. >> and although -- listen. you and i both know, steve, there are people in our country who have had a bad deal. >> absolutely. >> bad karma. whatever reason. but when you -- i saw geraldo. other gentleman that works for us. this is not way to solve the problem. besides the fact we don't have the facts of this case. >> not yet. >> so if it gets to the point in this country that a black man or anybody is wrongfully injured or killed by a cop then you cannot just go out and riot and burn the businesses down.
4:50 am
>> right. >> that shows no regard for anybody. the president cannot make a statement and say soul searching. what? what are these police officers supposed to do? >> i know. i hope somebody at the white house transcribed what you said. you are in las vegas right now f. you went out on the streets of las vegas and you threw a brick at a cop and you hit him because the news this morning is that of the 200 people arrested in baltimore on monday night, they let half of them go this morning, wouldn't you be arrested and sitting in the pokie? >> it's -- depends really, steve, on the background and things like that. a lot of times i must tell you, they release prisoners. they don't have rooms in jail. >> i know. but if you hit a cop -- >> i'm in jail. i'm in jail. >> of course. >> the front page review journal is fox nulls legal analyst in jail. you'd be talking to me from the jail. the only good news, not costing me anything for attorney's fees. that's a good story, also. >> all right. >> my concern -- i got it.
4:51 am
ran out of time. >> we're out of time. it's much appreciated. thanks for getting up, bob massi. >> okay. straight ahead, one of the most highly anticipated sequel of the year but is this new avengers movie opening tonight, is it worth your hard-earned cash? we'll talk about that in a minute.

"george washington, secret six." all right. speaking of superheroes, teaming
4:55 am
up for "the avengers: age of ultro." is it worth our money? >> good morning to you guys. yeah. the first movie made $1.5 billion at the box office worldwide. third highe esest grossing of a time. there's ultron that's supposed to be global peace and ends up backfiring and they have to essentially the avengers assemble to save the world and the movie itself, the action's incredible. one shot in the movie, a long continuous action shot i would pay $20 to see on a loop for two and a half hours. i was having nerd tears all over the place. on the negative side, not near as good as "captain 2" but i give it a 4 out of 5. there's no end credit scene. i did speak to robert downey jr. about the scenes in the movie and lands as iron-man and the suit peels away.
4:56 am
this is what he said happens on set. check this out. >> you have to lean into and be comfortable even though i feel like an shmuck it is like somebody when's not a good dancer but they're just out there just like bringing it. you know? you are like i love that confidence. that's what you need to really make the effects work. you have to sell it like it's happening. because i get excited as you do. >> nerd tears. >> i get so geeked out i have tears in my eyes. >> at least you didn't walk out. who knew he had blue blockers? >> yeah. he didn't walk out of my interview. 4 out of 5. it's slightly below the first avengers. good for fans. 4 out of 5. >> all right. >> nerd tears, as well. thank you so much. all right. coming up -- >> coast to coast, protesters take to the streets to stand with baltimore. more than 100 arrests made. but is it still, like, is it
4:57 am
nothing like the riots in the charmed city, something police did differently? former detective bo deedle is here on that top of the hour. the medicine in advil is their #1 choice for pain relief. more than the medicines in tylenol or aleve. use the medicine that pharmacists use most for themselves. relief doesn't get any better than this. advil. so if you have any epackages you want to returnil you should just give them to us since we're going to be here anyway it's kind of a no brainer

5:02 am
indianapolis. >> here in new york, at least one officer was injured. and more than 120 were arrested. >> peter dooci is live in baltimore with the latest. good morning, peter. >> reporter: good morning. baltimore is holding its breath this morning to see how the city responds to the new report that is based on information from an unnamed prisoner who was in the van with freddie gray for his last ride alive suggesting that gray intentionally tried to injure himself thrashing around and slamming against the inside of that vehicle. this is "the washington post" report. the gray family lawyers say they don't buy this account about freddie severing his own spine and questions remain of how gray died and how things got so out of control monday night. the latest is that police were told to let the protests spiral into violent riots even though
5:03 am
doing so put them in peril. >> these guys were going through hell and all i could hear was retreat or stand down. stand down. this was over the radio. i heard it with my own ears and i couldn't understand for the life of me what was going on. >> here in baltimore, the national guard has been helping enforce an every night curfew with success for two nights in a row and no curfew in new york where 120-plus people were arrested in a manhattan protest and demonstrations in boston, denver, minneapolis and seattle as authorities across america struggle to keep the peace. back the you in new york. >> they are, indeed. thank you very much. despite more than 100 protesters arrested here in new york city, the scene still looked like nothing compared to baltimore. so what did police do differently and who's to blame for the anti-cop sentiment around the country? here to weigh in, once again,
5:04 am
former new york city detective bo deedle. the protesters looked familiar. >> my friends from occupy wall street. these are the professional demonstrators. it came up on the internet because i got the report two days ago of the washington square demonstration, all that. they sit back and for any cause that they bring up, they want to be out there and cause disturbance. with respect to the demonstration last night in new york, it was nothing like what was in baltimore. >> no. >> the cops and it wasn't -- dealing with a different demonstration group and not looting here. trying to disrupt the traffic. >> which is against the law. >> of course it is. you got to take them and let the people drive through. i couldn't get down 47th street last night because it was closed off at midnight. they couldn't go. i parked at the curb and had coffee. you know what? it's all about one thing in new york. starting to watch across the country. everybody who wants to jump on
5:05 am
board, remember what we said. wait for the information. >> yeah. >> and what happened in baltimore, again, i used to be a homicide detective. i had guys where i locked up bang their heads on the cell doors open the heads opened up. >> to make it look like the cops do it? >> they were on drugs. i'm hoping they did toxicology on that young man when they took him into the hospital because i really feel mentally he was not really with it and possibly he was on drugs. now, he's dead. my heart goes out to him and his family and all that. this is a dead man. but a lot of people don't understand they're compartmentalized in that police van and the other prisoner couldn't have beaten him up. and then pulled over -- >> he said he couldn't see him. >> three times they pulled over consistent of him kicking, trying to put the leg irons on. >> talk about the blockbuster news and come back to that video right there. according to "the washington post" there was a prisoner in the van when freddie van put in
5:06 am
it. they were separated as you said. he couldn't see it. but it sounded like according to this other prisoner that freddie gray intentionally trying to injure himself. you made a point of when you watched that video, the cell cam video, with a broken neck, he couldn't step into the van and he does not in this part of it but when we get to the back of the van you can see him step into it. >> let me tell you. spinal cord injuries with the christopher reeves foundation is a charity. >> here it is. >> president of my company broke his neck in a diving accident. very familiar with the injury. if, in fact, the spinal cord severed like that, there's no way to stood up like that. that's all i'm saying as far as from a medical and we had the doctor on last night to verify, when you have a spinal cord injury, you don't limp. it could be consistent of him banging his head in the wall. i don't want to rush to
5:07 am
judgment. let's wait. everybody should wait, wait for the information. >> if you -- he is banging around in that area, we know that, making a lot of noise. >> not strapped in. >> could he have slipped and fallen? by going into the van there, he made the injury worse. that could have very well happened by him banging his head. >> two things keep in mind. >> we don't know why. >> why he was arrested, why he was arrested yet. the report's not out. a bad look, that's not a good thing to arrest somebody for. >> irresponsible for the protest earls to divide ourselves on a case like this. what happened in south carolina, we agree that cop should go to jail. he committed murder. let's wait and see. burning people's businesses, by throwing boulders at cops, by standing down and all this crap, i said i'm really upset. those poor cops go through that baltimore. new york's demonstration more peaceful. they were disturbing the peace but this commissioner and police department is not going to stand for it in new york.
5:08 am
and across the country, every police commissioner draw the line. you want to demonstrate, you do it peacefully. show -- hold your signs up. don't block traffic or pedestrians. do your thing peacefully. i'll be part of a nice peaceful demonstration. we don straited for more money in 1975 for the cops. i walked across the brooklyn bridge. they charged us with horses. we were cops and charged us with horses. there's a way of doing it properly and not doing it and destroying people's property is not the way. >> all right. >> of course not. think tier ones trying to improve the community. >> and also, you know, i wanted to talk to you guys because it's very important. what should we do going forward? we have to build the relationship where our inner city youth. cops should have programs in the inner cities. >> let's -- >> i 'm catching it from the p.a.l. and bring them together and only interfaith cops when they're locked up, frisked or questioned for identification.
5:09 am
show the kids and teach them some trades. nobody wants to be a painter or plumber anybody. teach the trade to the inner city kids to have a focus in life. bring us together because there's such a division. cops are the bad guys. cops ain't bad guys. minorities are taking over the police departments. we're all the same. it's not black. it's good and bad. we got to have the infrastructure where cops and the inner city youth kids to show they're human beings, they cry. ten little spanish kids shot in the head dead. i still remember, i cried when i walked into the living room. guy shot them all in the head. cops cry, too. cops have emotion, families. let's start bringing the reality of a cop out there to protect you. i think that's the biggest thing to do in america and you know what? we want to get 50 billion to iran? how about taking that and putting it into the inner cities and teach the kids a trade and then infrastructure where cops have an interaction with the

5:16 am
all right. president obama condemning the violence in baltimore and implying police are the ones to blame saying departments across the country need to do some soul searching. >> but should the president and fellow democrats be the ones looking inside? are the administration's liberal policies partly to blame? >> washington state congresswoman herrera beutler joins us right now.
5:17 am
what do you think about the tone, the address and the time emphasizing the cops? >> you know, this is a terrible situation. i think the family deserves answers. and a lot of people are angry on both sides of this issue. but, you know, one of the things that i have been watching through this entire, entire issue our elected leaders need to make sure they're inciting peace and inciting justice and answers and calm. what we have seen out of baltimore is the opposite of that so my hope is as we move forward and as people search for those answers that our elected leaders can project that and can support that peaceful approach. not the blame shifting, not the blame throwing. but one that's going to allow the community and the nation to heal. >> yeah. maybe wait until you have the ducks in order and in a line rather than rush to judgment. >> oh yeah. >> i also want your take on this. happier news this morning. you are a congresswoman championing a cause in congress after your miracle baby born
5:18 am
with a rare disorder with her kidneys. >> my goodness, abigail rose, she was -- i named her after abigail adams, a favorite hero. she was -- she had 100% fatal diagnosis. i was told no baby ever survived her condition and through a lot of prayers and brave doctors, she's now 21 months and doing fabulously. that picture at an easter egg roll a couple of weeks ago. she is growing. my husband is giving her one of his kidneys hopefully this fall. i'm the happiest and most exhausted mom in the world. >> championing a medicaid bill because of this. >> yes, yes. i'm so excited. this bill will allow kids on medicaid, on the welfare system, who are in states, see, right now what happens is they get boxed in. if you need to see a specialist in another state, it is very difficult to transfer and my daughter had to transfer. so i wanted to make sure those kids on the safety net programs,

we have a fox news alert. look at the live images from california. a massive fire building. those are power poles up in flames. the flames going so high you can see them for miles. fire crews having trouble fighting it because there aren't any hydrants nearby. no word on how it was caused. that in the fresno, california, area coming in from our
5:24 am
affiliate. >> not much water out there. and a plane carrying former president bill clinton making an emergency landing. an unscheduled stop i think they referred to it as in east africa yesterday. the abrupt stop being blamed on a partial failure of one of the engines on the apirplane. they were back in the air about 45 minutes later. >> that's the news. now to the fox news alert, explosive new report out this morning claims about the death of freddie gray, the 25-year-old who was in police custody when he had the spinal injury. the report says he could hear gray, a prisoner in the van, banging something against the walls and believes he was, quote, intentionally trying to injure himself. >> joining us is dr. mark siegel who's in texas. the story is freddie gray put into that van, somebody -- another prisoner, was also in the van on the other side of a
5:25 am
metal partition. apparently they have those so they can't hurt each other and according to "the washington post" the other prisoner heard gray do what he said sounded like he was intentionally trying to sbir himself. how badly could somebody injure themselves in the back of a police van like that? >> steve, you could sustain a brain injury and you could get a head injury that way and a neck injury. there's no way that you could sever your spine bashing your head into the wall or the side of a car or anything like that. that is not the cause of a severed spine in this case. >> right. so no matter how hard you try, you can't do it. we remember the quarterback that banged his head in celebration and sprained his neck with a helmet on. >> exactly. >> so it seems implausible he hurt himself severely. >> he may have hurt himself but not to the extent where he would sever his spine. no chance.
5:26 am
>> okay. doctor, you're down in crawford, texas, once again today. and you're wearing bike clothes. we know why. tell us the story. >> it's a beautiful morning on the prairie chapel ranch in crawford, texas. the bushes invited us here to the warrior 100k. this is the fifth annual ride. the theme this year is the invisible wounds of war that focuses on post traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury. of 2 million service men that served in iraq and afghanistan, 1 out of 5 suffering injuries like that. it's asounding problem and president bush's putting a focus on post traumatic stress this morning. i have to on my right, leslie zimmerman, a retired sergeant of the u.s. army and was a medic over in the army and in iraq and was discharged with post traumatic stress. good morning, leslie. >> good morning. >> tell me what it was like to be a medic over in iraq. >> it was -- it was amazing. i loved it.
5:27 am
i loved serving my fellow men and women. it was a once in a lifetime opportunity. i loved it. >> what kind of problems have you had with the transition back? >> i think i have it a little bit easier. i'm a medic. i knew what to look for so i feel like i had access to people who understood right there and i was able to take care of what i needed to. >> how about mountain biking? i'm a mountain biker. you race and put me to shame. tell me about it. >> i love mountain biking. that's my happy place and that's really helped out a lot i think just getting out and being active and my family, my kids all ride with me and my husband rides and we ride with the utah state high school league and support that and it's just awesome. >> keep it up. >> thanks. >> danny over here, danny, you actually -- you use sports rehabilitation. you were on a mine, a tank mine in iraq. and you ended up with multiple fractures of your legs.
5:28 am
tell me how you use sports rehabilitation and he was in the gulf, brian, he was in the warrior golf open, as well. >> i use sports to not only rehabilitate from mental but also physical. so mountain biking actually saved me from cycling as a whole saved me from going under the knife again for the 25th time. so it's helped with my hip. my used to mountain bike and raced years ago before we met. now that we're doing this together, it's allowing me the opportunity to be able to spend more time with her as well as hopefully get out and meet other great people like leslie and those i'm going to meet along the ride. >> we also have pam jackson here who tells me that the trails are a little wet this morning. >> they're in great shape. we welcomed out. we got the rain we needed to bring up the texas lake levels and the trails are really great. it will be a good ride. >> i'm looking forward to this, guys. if you see president bush, you are riding too fast. if you see dr. mark, you're
5:29 am
riding too slow. back the you in new york. >> and you're going to be interviewing president bush later today and he is riding this year? >> he's in great shape this year. pam tells me that his knees are incredible, riding better than ever and got the racers here. no way i'm keeping up. >> all right. >> happy to hear it. >> doctor mark siegel in crawford, good luck to you. it is now half past the top of the hour and happened again. geraldo face to face with an angry protester. >> i see you. >> what do you see? >> i see a person sticking his face in my face and he's trying to stop me from doing my job. >> i'm telling white america stop not giving a damn about black people. >> that was just a beginning. it was a night of protests across the country. a live report straight ahead. plus, reading the news and cooking ribs. there she is. heather and her mother share their favorite recipe. smells so nice in here.

...is as easy as it gets. wouldn't it be great if hiring plumbers, carpenters and even piano tuners... were just as simple? thanks to angie's list, now it is. start shopping online... ...from a list of top rated providers. visit angieslist.com today. dominique wilkins,ople, likare taking charge of famer ...with non-insulin of their tvictoza.abetes... for a while, i took a pill to lower my blood sugar, but it didn't get me to my goal. so i asked my doctor about victoza. he said victoza works differently than pills, and comes in a pen. victoza is proven to lower blood sugar and a1c.
5:43 am
it's taken once a day, any time. and the needle is thin. victoza is not for weight loss, but it may help you lose some weight. victoza is an injectable prescription medicine that may improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. it is not recommended as the first medication to treat diabetes and should not be used in people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. victoza has not been studied with mealtime insulin. victoza is not insulin. do not take victoza if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza or any of its ingredients. symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include swelling of face, lips, tongue or throat, fainting or dizziness, very rapid heartbeat, problems breathing or swallowing, severe rash or itching. tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck. serious side effects may happen in people who take victoza
5:44 am
including inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) which may be fatal. stop taking victoza and call your doctor right away if you have signs of pancreatitis, such as severe pain that will not go away in your abdomen or from your abdomen to your back, with or without vomiting. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you have any medical conditions. taking victoza with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. the most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, and headache. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems. if your pill isn't giving you the control you need... ask your doctor about non-insulin victoza. it's covered by most health plans. hey, quick headlines now. not every day you see the president of a university show up at a house party. >> quinnipiac students are the greatest students in the world.
5:45 am
>> that's exactly what happened at quinnipiac over in connecticut. president john leay crashing a massive off campus party and got neighbors angry talking about buying up the houses on the block and since apologized. and no cookies for you. a 5-year-old denied the oreos her mom packed her for school lunch. they sent home this note calling them unhealthy. this mom shared her story with me. >> she loves cookies. she always eats healthy. so oreos, it didn't really -- we don't pack unhealthy lunches all the time. we thought no big deal. >> look how sad she was. the school isn't returning our calls or her calls. steve? >> i'll return your call, brian. meanwhile, some say the images of baltimore burning on monday night should be a wake-up call for a different kind of policing. the broken windows ifphilosophy.
5:46 am
cracking down on minor offenses to prevent bigger ones from happening. it's worked here in new york city. between 1990 and 2009, the homicide rate in new york city dropped almost 80% and robberies were down about 80%. but it's not without controversy. former yonkers, new york, police commissioner joins us live with more. good morning. >> good morning, steve. >> i recall back in the day when people were like, you know, just, you know, it is a minor infraction. they're talking about going back to it here in new york city. why's that a bad idea? >> i came on the nypd in 1979 and then bratton and giuliani in the mid-'90s. i saw both sides, no broken windows theory, no assertive policing and then what happens when you do broken windows and et cetera. thousands 0 of people are alive today because of this. >> you say it works. down in baltimore, there are reports that the mayor gave the stand down order on monday. there's the mayor right there
5:47 am
and then apparently also said, just let them go and destroy things. it's only property. >> that's a tragic mistake. i think she had to walk it back several times since then. i see broken windows as a necessary tool in the toolbox in policing and a lot of people alive today because of it and detractors never offer an alternative strategy. is there an acceptable level of murder and carnage and mayhem they'll take? >> so many people watching, ed, monday afternoon when those, you know, they refer to them as children, those kids out of the high school and they started pelting the cops with bricks and rocks and all sorts of stuff. if you were the commissioner of police in baltimore when that happened, what would you do? would you retreat like they were ordered to do? >> negative. you have to do something immediately, nip it in the bud. if you don't show that force, it is amazing how in ferguson they talked about the militarization of police. in baltimore they would have liked to have the equipment to
5:48 am
show they mean business. >> the crazy for us thing we're sitting a couple hundred miles north of baltimore and apparently eventually the mayor called out the national guard, the governor saying i'll take the national guard now and had to be forced to ask for the help. >> waiting. her story was about dotting and crossing and paper work and you take action at a time like that. >> no kidding. thank you very much. >> thank you. straight ahead, a story going to make your day. look at that guy right there. he gets the ball. this world war ii vet didn't think he still had the moves in him and scored a touchdown at my alma mater that vet and his grandson join us live next. first let's check in with martha. what do you have cooking at the top of the hour? >> still got the moves is right. good morning, everybody. so there's a new report that says the clinton foundation gave 10% of their money to the causes. they dispute that but that's the investigation just beginning.
5:49 am
