the city baltimore's mayor was in a private meeting with supporters. we'll be asking her some tough questions when she comes out momentarily. there are other stresses facing baltimore as the curfew is lifted tonight at 10:00. you may have seen the image of an 18-year-old on the front page of the baltimore sun. he was caught throwing a traffic cone into the windshield of a police cruiser on monday night. after that happened and after that photograph was published in the paper, his parents encouraged him to turn himself into police. he did just that but now he's facing a 5 $00,000 bond. many other rioters were set fleeflee free. and then the police officers face charges as well. watching closely to see what

happens on the streets of moim baltimore as the curfew has been lifted. that does not mean the national guard has been ordered to retreat and be taken off guard. we'll be watching closely to see what happens tonight. >> we're waiting for not just the news conference from the mayor but also from larry hogan now attending a service. expect those two news conferences at this hour. >> meanwhile, one of new york's finest is recovering from surgery after being shot in the head. brian moore and his partner approached the suspect in queens in an unmarked police vehicle. after a short conversation the suspect allegedly opened fire. but why is still not clear. right now we are live in the new york studio with the story. >> police tell us officer brian moore is in critical condition. we've learned from a hospital source that part of his skull had to be removed to allow for

swelling. officers searched for the suspect yesterday. according to police officer moore and his partner saw him walking and adjusting an object in his waistband. he turned and pulled out a gun from his waistband and deliberately fired twice into their car. officer moore was in the driver's side and was hit in the suspect. his partner was not injured. they found is suspect about an hour and a half later and took him into custody. the suspect has an extensive arrest history according to police. the officer has nearly five years on the force and comes from a long line of service in his family. despite past tensions with police new york city mayor showing support. >> it's a reminder of the dangers that all of our officers face every single day, but they are dedicated.

a sworn oath and they live up to that oath as men and women go out and put their lives on the line. >> here are some numbers that illustrate the dangers. in 2015 so far 36 police fatalities. in 2014 126 officers were killed in the line of duty and in 2013 nearly 50,000 officers were assaulted. patty ann black well will be arrange arranged this week. >> thank you, reporting live. now to overseas where the death toll is rising. after the massive earthquake shattered the south asian country of nepal. u.s. marines are arriving in the region joining the efforts to try to help the millions of people struggling to get food and aid there. you can see one of the victims with that sign in english, begging for hep. now the united nations is slamming nepal's response to the

disaster. will car with more on that. >> reporter: since the earthquake hit last saturday, the situation appears to be getting worse instead of better. they say the death toll can be anticipated to get much higher. they also say there are millions of people still homeless. united nations estimates 3 million people still need food. while aid is pouring in from across the globe, one issue is it's not getting to the victims quickly enough. rescuers know there are a number of villages that have been destroyed but they can't get there because there's so much damage. to help the u.s. military is now sending up to 500 troops to try to relieve the bottle neck of aid that's piling up at the international airport in kathmandu which has sustained a lot of damage because there's been so many planes landing the aid. the u.s. military is also trying to get to some of the hard to reach areas. >> reporter: the u.s. military

is going to come in providing unique capabilities for immediate life saving aid. we're going to come in and try to save people's lives out in the remote villages. >> there is a sliver of good news. rescuers pulled three survivors out of the rubble a week after the quake hit. one, a man that's 10 1 years old. authorities say it's a miracle he's still alooifr. danielle banks just returned to texas to be reunited with her family. he was on mt. everest when the quake hit, setting off a huge avalanche. >> things were collapsing. it was like a war zone. just flying over it i realized how serious the situation was. >> the situation is so serious rescuers are very worried that monsoon season is around the corner. they say it's only going to make things worse as they continue to

try to get to the villages they're cut off from. >> such a shame. very heart warming reunion. thank you so much. >> the bodies of at least ten migrants have been found off libya's coast but thousands have also been saved after italy's coast guard rescued more than a dozen boats. many of the migrants are now in italy. milder weather and calmer seas will increase the number of migrants trying to come to italy. >> a final deal must effectively cut off iran's uranium and covert pathways to a bomb. if it doesn't, there will be no bomb. >> that's the vice president insisting the administration will hold iran accountable as nuclear talks hit a crucial stage. the u.s. navy is on alert as iran moves into the straight of her muse.

the fos set for at least 20% of the world's oil supply. a warning shot trailing cargo ships including an american freighter. what's going on? we have a former u.s. ambassador and senior fellow at the american enterprise institute joining us. >> glad to be here. >> this has been a flash point far generation. there was a firing back in the 1980s. of course iran has tried to move into it. what are their intentions? >> i think looking at the see sure of the tigris the commercial vessel they took last week. that was intended as a shot across our bow. the marshal ie handle of former trust territory of the united states were responsible for their defense and foreign policy. i think from the iranian revolutionary guard's point of

view that was the closest thing they could find to seizing an american vessel. i think the decision to accompany american vessels is justified. i think at least the revolutionary guard is trying to notch this up. >> what happens if this escalates? >> i think we have to be prepared to defend freedom of navigation. if the iranians can with one ship seizure or two or three top that vital transit area yarks oil prices will be affected and they will be demonstrated the weakness of the united states. >> the president has apparently told the iranians this is a red line. do you think he'll hold it fast or like we saw in syria, it'll just dissipate f. >> there's no reason to do that. we've been through this drill. as you mentioned back in 1987 given the threat of iranian attacks on kuwaitty tankers, the

reagan administration put an american flag on them and put our warships into the gulf to make it clear to iran they'd better not think of it. all this is going on while iran and secretary of state john kerri are still negotiating this nuclear deal. this shows iran really has reached new levels. >> why would they do this? you heard the vice president say the administration is intent that iran will not get a nuclear bomb and then they're doing this. >> with all due respect to the vice president, no one has believed anything they've said on this. each time it looks like there's a red line the administration gives away. i think iran is playing its chips out to see how much pressure they can apply. they also know that the arab leaders of the gulf region the gulf coordination counsel are coming to washington in about ten days. i think they're saying we are the big dog around here. the united states is not. >> you think there labwill be a

deal eventually? think he will sign something. i think it leaves iran on a clear path to nuclear weapons. >> it's not done yet. good to see you. >> glad to be here. >> government workers are beginning to destroy the largest chemical weapons stockpile in the united states. the process is being watched by many eyes. >> waiting on two news conferences right now from baltimore. one is from the mayor. the other from the governor of the state. attending a church service for faith and healing and hope. hope the peace stays. we'll bring you the latest news as it breaks straight ahead today on america's news head quarters.

american chemical weapons stored in bunkers. the nearly 800,000 muster gas shells are the remaining bulge pile. the process must be performed according to international law. joining us is paul walker the director of green cross viernlt tall and sustainable process. these used to be buried on dumped into the ocean and that caused problems. can you elaborate on that? >> that was the old system that we and many other countries did. but in the last 30 years, it's been really understood you can no longer bury or dump these toxic dangerous weapons. so we were left by the 1980s with over 31,000 tons of really deadly chemical agents. poison gas in the united states and the russians were left with

40,000 tons and six of the countries have declared stockpiles too. it's been a long process. we signed and ratified to get rid of it. >> she hasthese shells detiererioratedeteriorate. they are being stored. can you describe that protocol there? >> this the agent, the chemical weapon that is in pueblo is mustard agent. it's dangerous but old and aging blister type agent. what they do is they access these weapons which are a wide variety of weapons. rockets and artillery shells and bombs of different types. they access these robotically. they have to pull out burster caps and explosives from the weapon. then they actually drain the

liquid. the poison gas is a liquid. it tends to solidify over time so they have to drain it out, wash it out, and then they have to mix the agent itself the mustard agent with a neutral, or another chemical and it destroys the mustard agent. then they have to decontaminate the shell and get rid of the explosives. it's a dangerous process that's gone on for 25 years in the united states and will go on for another ten years or so. >> a lot of it now is being done by robots i understand and the neighborhood around the debow is very involved in making sure it's all done safely so we have a long way to go. >> it's been a very long process. we're required under the chemical weapons convention along with the seven other countries that declared chemical weapons stockpiles to destroy

the stockpiles fully and safely taking care of workers and surrounding communities. the process in the united states since 1990 when the first destruction facility opened in the pacific ocean has been a long, tedious one. it's costing about 40 billion. very very expensive, and it's also been very convention. communities have been very worried that some of the things could leak. as it does leak in pueblo and bluegrass kentucky the other remaining stockpile in the united states you have to be careful and caution. everything is done robotically for the most part even though they have up to 1,000 workers at each one of the sites. we're ridding ourselves of a whole class of weapons, but it's a difficult and expensive process. >> we'll leave it there. thank you very much paul walker. >> fight of the century or

here is the mayor of baltimore. >> thank you. i just finished a tour of the mall and i am so happy that they are ready to reopen. not every store is ready to reopen but the majority of the stores and i had a tour of the mall of the damage right after the incident on monday and it is such a dramatic difference from where it was on monday. i'm just so grateful because it shows the resiliency of our city. i want to thank general gross and all of the vendors who are here. they want to stay here. they want to continue their investment and i think this was a smart -- it's certainly a smart investment because this is a growing community. again, i want to thank all the members of the community who have come together to support the mall. i've been coming here since i was a child, taking my christmas

pictures with santa. you can come up if you want to. this is just a great day for this community to have the mall reopen. just a wonderful day. i was proud to support the investments that i think it was the baltimore development corporation made into this mall to be the major renovations and to see it bounce back gives me a lot of optimism about what's possible. i'll open it up. >> mayor, what was the difference between yesterday and today in your decision to lift the curfew? >> so yesterday we had some of the same outside protesters that we had on saturday. when the peaceful protests turned into destruction, and we were very cautious that we were able to get through that night without having it turn into what happened last saturday.

>> the national guard, will they stay now? what about the national guard and state troopers? >> they unwind. it's not like you flip a switch nature they unwind. >> are they withdraws? are you concerned this might be premature on your part? >> you'll tell me that afterwards. you'll let me know. >> how confident are you right now in can you talk about how confident you are right now in the state of affairs in baltimore in you peaceful it is in the underlying unrest. what is your assessment right now of the state of affairs in baltimore? >> i am confident. we saw our resiliency and communities coming together. we want to heal our city. we know we have challenges in baltimore. we know there's work to be done but what you see in these last few days with the peaceful demonstrations and people coming

together to celebrate baltimore is that will that we will get better that we will get through this and do it as one baltimore. >> what is your appraisal, the status of the unrest in baltimore right now? >> i think a lot of the unrest has been settled down in the sense of the protests but that doesn't mean the work doesn't continue. we are actively engaging with the department of justice on claptive review. we have been since last year in the process of improving our police department and reforming it and putting in place things that will eliminate this type of incident from ever happening again. >> can you elaborate on the roll the state leaders have played plot only in rebuilding the city but quelling much of the violence? >> there are words -- words are insufficient to describe my gratitude to the faith community. they have come out in unbelievable ways to not just

support me you know in the physical sense of the city but to support me spiritually, and to help us rebuild our community when they were out there. you know you saw the fire burning in east baltimore, but when they were out there, it was a fire of their spirit and it was really energizing our community, and i cannot -- words are insufficient to describe my gratitude. >> what's your reaction to the criticism of your leadership during this crisis but also praise of the government? >> that's your job to react and respond to that. i'm very focussed. i think i'm going to be continue to be focussed on rebuilding my city. >> can you tell us about your conversation this morning? >> they are optimistic. they are excited about continuing their investment in the mall. this is a successful mall. to see that destruction that i

saw when i toured on tuesday, it was really -- it was devastating to see that done to these vendors who have put so much money into this mall but to see them back i was just excited, and they're optimistic moving forward that we'll never see anything like that again. thank you. >> that was the news conference from the mayor. choosing the sight -- site of the mall that had been looted. a symbol of the healing and the hope that she chose during her brief news conference just now. she also mentioned what she called outside protesters for causing some of the trouble in her city. this as she has now lifted the curfew tonight that was to be in
