getting in the water. >> absolutely not. thanks so much for watching. have a great day. "fox & friends" starts now. good morning to you. it is thursday july 2nd 2015. i'm elizabeth hasselbalch. this is a fox news alert for you. danger in the water as millions of americans prepare to hit the beach this fourth of july weekend, two new shark attacks. nearly a dozen this summer alone. why the spike? >> we are live with the details for you coming up. >> have you heard macy's is dumping the donald? >> you see macy's the way they joke. they called me up and apologized. >> we go one on one as he picks his opponents apart. the must-see interview in a matter of moments the american flag burned by a bunch of cop haters. the message is drowned out this time.

>> sa usa. >> what is this about? some say freedom. for you to find out, you must wait for the animation to finish. ladies and gentlemen, that is our own arthur idala's 11-year-old nephew. we have dispatched him to the crossroads of the world, times square and on this independence day weekend hewe are going to call thursday the start of this. he asked people important questions. who is this guy our first president. who was the first signer of the declaration of independence. think, big signature.

does that give you a clue? >> he is great. you don't want to miss that. >> you are going to see part two of my sit-down with mary pat christie the wife of governor chris christi. how their love began? >> it had to do with pancakes at i desh ihop. >> i can never park there and it is always packed. did you notice it is always crowded there? >> it is because the menu is so big. >> have you ever tried to go to i-hop and walk down. >> you never have to go there again, because lee greenwood is going to show you how to make your own pancakes at home. >> in one way, you give me good news and in another way, you are yelling at me. >> i am trying to help you make your own.

>> that's coming up shortly. we only have two hours and 58 minutes left. i better hurry. fox news alert. danger in the water. days before july fourth a man airlifted to the hospital after being bitten by a shark in the waters off north carolina a 12-year-old boy bitten in the leg. those attacks making nine in total in the carolinas since may alone. >> fox news senior nationalle correspondent, john roberts, is live in atlanta, georgia. people see those headlines, wait a minute fourth of july. we are going to the beach. what should we do? >> just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water. it is not quite a shark nato but it has placid shark worried. a 12-year-old was floating in knee-deep water with his cousin when he said a wave rolled over them. inside that wave was a shark

that immediately latched on to his fleshy inner thigh. he talked with greta van sus stern. >> all of the sudden, i felt a cringe of pain in my leg. i yelled to my cousin let's get out of the water, i just got bit by a shark. >> he went over to the lifeguard station. they treated him at the hospital and let him go. he has a pretty good attitude about the whole thing considering he was bitten been a shark. this as you mentioned, is one of nine attacks that happened on a stretch of coastline about 400 miles long from the outer banks down to the south carolina/georgia border. yesterday, a 68-year-old man was bitten while swimming off of okracoke island. he had to be airlifted to the hospital. on friday, in a von,von, a

47-year-old man had to go all usd on a shark, punching it and elbowing it in the nose to get him off of his 8-year-old son. shark expert is sounding a warning reminiscent of richard dreyfus in jaws. >> spoken as a private individual probably at this point, in the areas where these recent shark attacks have occurred it would be wise to take people out of the water. >> nobody is going to want to know they are going to go to the beach and not going in the water? what's going on. unusually warm and salty water has drawn sharks north. there is lots of food in the water. they don't really care if they are latching on to a fish or a human leg. >> that's right, john. food is food. >> thank you very much with a warning about this weekend. >> one word pool. go in a pool and stay away from the beach. >> a lot of people have reservation for the weekend at the ocean. they are going to be right there. you have to be careful.

>> be aware. one other word people are saying a lot right now is trump. his poll ratings hitting new highs. he is still leading there. new york city says they are going to start reviewing their contracts about what he said about mexico and the type of people that come here. macy's also decided to part ways officially with donald trump and univision and nbc. >> you spoke with him yesterday? >> i did. he had a busy afternoon. he worked us in. he is not backing down about his brunt comments about our southern border. he does address the fact that macy's decided to cut ties with him and his line of ties and, in turn donald trump has now called for a boycott of macy's. here he is. >> we have so much to do in this country. when i bring up border security the firestorm. you see macy's the way they

choked. they just choked. they called me up and apologized. the way they choked in many respects i think this could be a blessing in disguise. they didn't have the courage or the guts. i actually said if somebody believed strongly in this country, boycott macy's. they just folded like a wet rag under the pressure. i don't like people that fold under pressure. it is very hard for a very successful person to run for political office specially for president. i see it now, maybe more. i have been saying it for years. they come at you. macy's fold. they all fold. nbc was chicken. they folded. univision. well i think univision is doing the work for mexico. it is incredible to watch, sad to watch. that's the problem with our country. it is so important to be politically correct, steve, that they make bad decisions for the country. >> after he called for a boycott of macy's i am looking on his twitter. he also tweeted this out.

interesting macy's criticized me but just paid $650,000 in fine for racial profiling. are they racist? >> someone was accused of pointing out shoplifters based on race. when you look at the city invest dpating the contracts that he has, he has several between the concessions golf course ice-skating rinks, carousel. he has a 20-year concession agreement to operate. >> among the people staying away smith says i am no longer going to be a judge and rickie martin says i am not going to have his fund-raiser. george petaki says can the divisive comments. >> rickie martin is out of an event he was going to host. >> if you are a successful businessman, if you want your business to stay whole, don't run for public office. you are not going to have anybody besides professional politicians running for office. >> he is no the backing down.

he is doubling down. his ratings are soaring. he is number two now in iowa. number two nationally behind jeb bush. more on that a little later on. you will see more on the interview, because we have talked for quite a while in the 8:00 hour. in the meantime heather, good morning. good morning. breaking news to bring you. this coming out tennessee this morning. while you were sleeping a dangerous and toxic train derailment near maryville tennessee. there was a csx train that went off the rails. one car caught on fire and then released a highly flammable gas into the surrounding area. that chemical can cause headaches, nausea and kidney problems. some sort of a petroleum-type chemical. 5,000 people have been evacuated from their home. we are told they may not be able to return for two days. no word on any injuries or what may have caused the crash. we will keep watching the story as it develops throughout the morning. also developing the pentagon is

on high alert along with the entire u.s. government ahead of the fourth of july weekend. a twitter account reportedly associated with isis posting this photo claiming to show fbi mobile command centers that were set up for the fourth of july holiday. defense secretary, ash carter talking about this acknowledging the threat that isis poses this weekend. take a listen. >> we are coming into a holiday time. we are always vigilant at holiday time. we are always vigilant as an institution about protecting our people and isil is another reason. >> new york and washington, d.c. beefing up security measures including sending out thousands of officers and counter terror forces. when it comes to politics president obama and jeb bush may not agree on a whole lot. they do have one thing in common how they like their quau

guacamole. they suggested you add peas and someone asked the president, he responded that he respects "the new york times." he says he likes onions garlic hot peppers, classic stuff instead. jeb bush tweeted this instead. simply you don't put peas in guacamole. >> those are fighting words. >> we have that you will important stuff and we are talking about peas in guac. yesterday, with he were telling you about a burning of a flag proposed for last night. pete went and what happened? >> we showed up at the park in brooklyn. with he were expecting to see hundreds of protesters. instead, we found hundreds of vets who were there to say, you won't be burning a flag on our watch. it was hard for us to find a

protester. what you see is a gentlemen going up to what they attempted to do. the protesters themselves are anti-nypd protesters that had to be protected from the crowd that said hey, we fought for that flag. we believe in that flag. we want to defend that flag. >> you have some footage. >> we do. >> were you prepared to burn a flag? >> yes, i am. >> burn my flag. go ahead, burn it. >> they died for this flag and we are going to go here and burn it. we vote if we don't like it. >> you fully support the burning of the american flag as a symbol of oppression and racism in america today. >> absolutely right. i'm an anarcist. i'm a communist. >> who was that anarcist and communist. >> she is ashamed if she is

watching. >> a grab bag of causes. the gentleman that pulled the flag his name is john carol. we had a chance to talk to him as well. it brought to mind a famous and iconic image. let's hear from john carol. he is the gentleman that took the flag out of the burning pit. >> we are going to play it a little later on. >> if pete wants it now, we can get it. >> they were chanting usa usa. >> when they talked about burning the flag they protect and believe in free speech but they also believe, if you are willing to burn it burn it right here in front of me. have the courage to do it. they snuck away like little weasels to try to burn it. >> if you burn a flag, isn't the whole point of gaining attention. pete you are there watching that. that's all you can do. >> victory. >> america wins. >> we are going to come back in just a little bit. coming up straight ahead on this show we are going to be talking

negotiating a bad deal with iran. senator marco rubio is fighting to stop it. >> it will not prevent nuclear weapons. it will all but guarantee that iraq gets those weapons. >> plet me tell you about negotiations. it is a tactic that iran is using and here is the why. in 2003 the world told iran you cannot have any enrichment capabilities. then it became you can enrich but only up to 20%. then it became, you can enrich over 20% but you have to ship it overseas. now, it is you can do over 20% but you can use it for a nuclear reactor. >> tell your senators to join marco rubio and vote against obama's deal and stop iran from getting weapons. welcome back this is a story that we have told all too often here at "fox & friends." military members returning from war only to be denied the health care they need right here at

home. >> chris dorsy, the veteran that shot that video, joins us live from atlanta. how are you doing? >> i'm doing good. how are you? >> why did you go to that v.a. and what kind of impression were you given by the person standing behind that screen? >> i went to the v.a. in oakwood the day before yesterday just to try to straighten out my situation and receive treatment there at the oakwood facility. i had previously been to a va clinic in lawrenceville, georgia and been not necessarily denied but i walked up to the desk explained my situation and the ladies handed me a flyer and told me they couldn't help me.

the flyer was just directions to the atlanta v.a. medical center. i told my family and friends of this immediately as i was in the parking lot. some of them that have dealt with the v.a. knew this all too well. my family members, some of them they were in kind of disbelief. >> sure. next morning when i decided to try a different v.a. clinic i wanted to have my camera rolling just in case anything did happen. i'm a firm believer in i'm not going to open my mouth and speak to something if i don't have proof to back up what i'm saying. >> of course just trying to be an honest man there. this year has been really tough for you. you have four kids haven't been able to see them. you lost three buddies to suicide. you have had suicidal thoughts is what i read here.

when you tell us this story, you are going to see somebody this morning, i am so honored to introduce you hear. what's your advice to chris? >> ultimately they should be given an option of a choice guard. we spend millions of dollars on a choice guard. why isn't he given a choice? there are also patient advocates or they can be referred to american legion or the vfw that should be able to help them navigate. the way they are being treated is as a number behind a desk told to stand by or go somewhere else. that's fundamentally unacceptable. thanks for standing up and showing that this is what vets face oftentimes at the v.a. >> you are right. since this has happened i have been contacted by several local veterans that experience the same issues at the same facilities.

this isn't about me. this isn't about chris dorsey. it is a broader issue around the nation that needs to be addressed, not just with just talk. >> without a doubt. >> actions speak louder than words. we are tired of the talk. >> thank you for your vision and for your service. for "fox & friends."

>> any pet peeves in case he happens to watch this that you would like to air out now. you know chris, i would really love it if you would -- >> hang up his ties. how is that? he keeps his ties in a spot in our room that i don't like. i wish he would put them back in his closet. >> maybe this will be the way. you never know. >> public shaming. >> i have a feeling all those neck ties will be on a little hook in the closet. >> great job. i have never seen her interviewed like that. >> number two, chris christie had a very good day yesterday. he was very strong in new hampshire and got endorsements from the main governor. a lot of people will see now if he has a shot it is going to be happening in maine. he is going to try to do what john mccain did. >> he says tell it like it is. when you were in their home you see their home is first about

another news agency filed a random freedom of information act request and got a copy of a letter that the justice department sent to one of the airlines basically saying, we think, with he think you might be behaving with other airlines in a conspiracy to keep prices up by not expanding the airlines and diminishing competition. competition goes down prices stay up. >> what's alleged is that they are limiting the capacity of the number of seats that go up in the sky, which keeps the prices high? >> yes. now, one can limit one's own capacity. an airline can decide not to expand can decide not to grow and not to purchase more planes about you if airlines do this in tandem with each other, with the purpose of keeping prices up that's called a price fixing conspiracy which is per se automatically unlawful. >> so these are the airlines that have targeted. we all fly on them delta, american southwest and united.

>> we actually don't know all the airlines that are targeted because not all of them have revealed that they got this letter. the letter is the very earliest stages of the investigation. nobody has been accused of anything yet. >> this is the way. i don't know enough about the airline industry. you get in a plane and go places. >> you probably know more than you think you do. here is the way i always figured it went. one airline either raised or lowered prices and everybody followed. apparently in this subpoena it was discovered that the suggestion is that the airlines are talking to each other. >> it is a great question steve? if the justice department it would take many years to litigate and cost hundreds of millions of dollars in legal fees but the allegation would be with a wink and a nod, they agreed not to expand and to keep prices up. when you are in a conspiracy you don't send an e-mail to a

fellow con spir i tore and say, let's do this and keep prices you. they will need a former conspirator, a person that was an executive or the justice department may decide this is not enough to pursue. at the earliest stages we may never know the result. if they say it is not enough to pursue it will go away. if they go after them they are going to file a huge lawsuit. gis who guess who is going to pay the legal bill? >> could this possibly be more of our regulation nation? >> yes yes, it did. the regulations are pretty clear. they know what they are. the question is did they violate them? >> judge napolitano weighing in on some breaking news they are three candidates with three very different messages. what grades do chris christie

donald trump and bernie sanders get so far? >> americans are weighing in. they are going to get the dial treatment coming up next. how much do you know about our nation's birthday? more than an 11-year-old? who is this person? george. >> who is the first person that signed the declaration of independence? >> oh man. i need help. >> think chicago skyscraper. that is fox legal analyst, arthur eye arthur iadala's nephew. they are here with the results of their quiz in times square. thanks to the tools and help at experian.com, i know i have a 798 fico score.

now. there are no reports at this point of casualties. this is as you will remember the same place aaron alexis went on a shooting rampage killing 12 and injuring three others as well. that is aaron alexis the man that shot 12 people september 16 2013. >> he was shot fatality by washington metropolitan police officer following the killing. >> it's a 41 acre facility. park police were the first to respond. we heard in the aftermath we're going to change a lot about security procedures going to make sure we button up and change ways in which he was able to penetrate. i'm wondering now if that is helping and if the active shooter is under control. >> this is a 41-acre facility. alarms sounding according to the employee there.

>> we have a reporter there. he said it's such a good lockdown. at this point there's no information getting out. he also pointed out, and this is important. if you remember back to september 2013 this is how the other one started. there were reports early of an active shooter. next thing we know there was a death toll of 12 people. also then we saw emphasisly images of the park police helicopter going over pulling people out as they could. if you're unfamiliar with washington d.c. this area is south and east of the us capitol. the d.c. area is set out on a grid. it's also close to nationals ball park. >> last time there was a shooting in 2013 rod did coverage. we're seeing pictures not live but almost live. it happened moments ago.

what's your assessment since you know the facility so well? >> the one thing i can tell you the response to navy yard these days is going to be massive. we learned a lot from the last situation with aaron alexis. we have response from the federal police agency response from the park police agency. park police headquarters is less than a mile from the navy yard. the yard is on eighth and eighth south west. you have the first police department of the d.c. police. what you're seeing now on your screen is massive response by multiple police agencies and i say at least four to five agencies. >> we've heard about increased security moving in this weekend. fbi command centers, secretary of defense said there's heightened anxiety over 4th of july terror threats. do you believe this is just the beginning? >> i believe this is the

beginning. i can tell you with great assurance, police presence is up. we are prepared for something in case it would happen. >> pictures are now live. i've got to bring you to this. the situation like this there's often a problem who's in charge and telling who what to do. who's in charge now? >> in this particular case it would probably be park police for now. now the navy police have their own agency as i indicated. the park police is right there. that is an area they mainly patrol. along with the first district police department here in the d.c. area. i would say park police are in charge brian. >> sure. absolutely. while there's no connection we moe of to terror and don't know if it's accurate that there's an active shooter. police are responding accordingly. taking you back to 2013.

the guy that did the shooting was aaron alexis. he did it on his own with this call from isis. they're saying the same thing. we're looking for people on their own lone wolves if you will to do something. pick a target and do it. >> that's right. aaron alexis was a previous contractor with the government. he still had his card which is the access card to the base. i can tell you, and this is good news that cannot happen today. unfortunately we learned the hard way back then. there were multiple ways to get back onto the base then. now there's not. there's one ways. one exit on eighth street and one on a street. they're heavily protected. >> i don't know if you are buy a monitor monitor, if there was nothing to this, wouldn't they have been able to defuse this by now? >> to.

it's going to take a while. there's 100 buildings on the washington navy yard over there. they have to go through each and every building to make sure they are secure. >> all right. stand by for a moment. if you're just joining us you looking at live images out of southeast washington d.c. where reports in the last 15 minutes have come in there's an active shooter at the u.s. navy yard. the reason youknow about that is because back in september 2013 aaron alexis fatality shot 12 people. currently the navy yard is on lock down. >> we're looking at reports of a possible active shooter here at the navy yard. what are your thoughts? >> i've spoken to the spokesman for the navy yard. they have confirmed the base is on lock down. it's not clear at this point in time. there were reports of a shooting this morning. again, i've not been able to get

confirmation from any officials as to what the nature of hah incident was. i do know from multiple sources they're not letting anyone in or out of the navy yard base. of course this all brings to find the terrible memories from september 2013 when aaron alexis went on the shooting rampage killing 12 is people inside building 197. remember there was the building from from inside the building that was so horrific. i remember covering that at the time. so obviously the metropolitan police department taking any incidents like this anybody on high alert because of the warning to be extra vigilant. that's why you see this . not a lot of details now. >> we're looking at images out of washington d.c. you can see a tactical team from u.s. marshals responds. park police are on scene, d.c.

metro as well. who else is on scene? >> there were emergency responders that i saw. there's also tremendous amount of security at the base. remember that the military and the pentagon and norad that's responsible for base security across north america, raised the alert status a few weeks ago. >> what does that mean ? >> that there would be extra checks of ids. there would be additional security on the premises. there would be spot checks. it really is just taking it up a notch. that has been for some time very grave concerns about attacks on base. >> since we started rolling this video, we see more people rolling in. we haven't gotten confirmation yet. we started with video, now we're live. we review reports of active shooter. you imagine if it wasn't true

the backup would start backing out. my question to you is on these bases, are they allowed to carry firearms to protect themselves should they come under fire? >> yes. absolutely. in fact every day i walk into the pentagon we have guards who are armed. in fact since they went to bravo status you seized the weapons more prevalent. you see more patrols. so yes, they definitely are allowed to have weapons and security is tight these days on bases. >> i imagine on bases. have you heard of outside situation they're upping security at another level? when you look at the armor, security helmets, vests. looks like they're getting ready to battle to the average person here. when you see this increased security and preparation, what

does that indicate to you? >> we have to have to -- first of all we don't have details of what happened at the navy yard mow. we have to keep in perspective, we're waiting details. they went to lockdown. that's what we know at this point. if you look at context in terms of federal authorities being on high alert because of the july 4th holiday, the alert that went out by dhs last night fbi. we reported last night they're setting up hundreds of command centers across the united states in anticipation of the july 4th weekend. fusion cells, intelligence centers. they're scanning social media because of this grave concern about the uptick in chatter from isis supporters across the nation. incredible statistic if you're talking about isis that has come out of late. that is that isis posts 90,000 social media posts a day calling

for attacks on so called infidels americans and others. you know this is creating havoc for law enforcement. what we know we heard at the new york city police department press conference yesterday, how they're going to be upping -- they're going to have 7,000 cameras in lower manhattan for the july 4th festivities. the amount of police activity and counter terrorism for the next few days is at its highest. >> let's go back to things we've talked about in ten minutes. there's a lock down at the navy yard in washington d.c. earlier report 25 minutes ago of an active shooter. the navy yard is on lockdown. what is different since then jennifer griffin, is the fact in 2013 when aaron alexis went in and murdered 12 people as rod wheeler pointed out, he was a contractor and had a card.

so he didn't have to go through the super duper security. now, apparently they have restricted the number of access points to the navy yard. as you mentioned a moment ago, you can go in with a firearm. so what kind of security do they have? is it just something where oh i know that guy, he's got an id? explain when you go in what the process is to get in the navy yard. >> i don't know what the process is if you have a weapon. i know what happens to us as we go into the pentagon each day. security as i mentioned is particularly tight. you know id cards, tightened up on showing id cards. they also have armed guards on the premises. in terms of the procedure for taking a weapon onto a navy base like the navy yard, as you mentioned will there are only two points of entry. they tightened up in terms of that.

i don't have details about if they're carrying a weapon. >> on twitter just put out from the navy. they say the naval yard is locked down. shelter is in place. month incident can be confirmed as of yet. more to follow. they have not confirmed. something must be going on to see this type of level response. here's jennifer an obviously question but for people that haven't been there, is this a target because it represents the u.s. military? >> absolutely. this is a very important facility. remember when aaron alexis targeted the building 197. this is where a great deal of all the navy weaponry takes place. it is a very important facility. there is some intelligence work that's done there. you know this is certainly

striking -- this is an important symbol. >> absolutely. all right jennifer stand by just a moment. the question was, you know what goes on at the navy yard. right now we're going to bring in -- hold on a second. >> james rosen is confirming that the national military command center is confirming an active shooter. so chuck nash navy guy, joining us now, active shooter at navy yard. your thoughts? >> we have seen this play out before didn't turn out well. right now it's interesting they have this massive police response based on what appears to be a report of i aa shooter. they're not taking any chances at all. with all those police vehicles

plus the security on the naval base itself. they're probably trying to get to the bottom of this. if there's an active shooter on there, they have rehearsed this based on what happened previously. i think you'll see a completely different response than happened the first time around. >> captain, specifically what kind of difference would we see now? what kind of rehearsals have they been through, methods they use this go around? what changes would make this target less soft than last time? >> given last time where there was a massive response. people started fanning out. they knew the building 197. they knew the buildings involved -- as you recall at one point we were talking as if there were two or three shooters. this time again, you have the uncertainty.

the practice and coordination with metro pd, park service police and security team on the navy base itself they've all interacted. have gone through exercises, what if's and those things on off duty hours where they have a much better feeling for buildings and everything. this time i think it's going to be a lot quicker. >> speaking of be buildings, the associated press reporting shots were reported in a building on the navy yard campus. this -- unfortunately this does sound a lot like the way it happened last time doesn't it? >> yeah it does. on any of these incidents where you start with the initial report and then uncertainty, that's where things tend to spiral out of control. >> so chuck, captain, first off just to review. there were reports of an active

shooter. that's confirmed there is an active shooter at the navy shipyard. here's one thing. as we saw yesterday in egypt, 50 soldiers were taken out by militants that were organized and coming in waves. if doing this at a naval shipyard that is a death wish. we hope you're not successful, but we know how this is doggoing to end. you're going to be dead. what is the mind set of someone going in like this? >> in most of these buildings they are office buildings. people are going to work in coat and tie and working on computers and pushing paper and things like that. the only people in there who are armed are the security personnel. you can probably hold those in maybe one or two hands and most of the time you've got the security around in the mornings when people are trying to access

the base. you're trying to get the flow of traffic as much as possible. you know it's not a robust security situation. even on our military bases as we learned after the fort -- the tragedy down in texas where we had the major who started shooting up a medical facility down there. yeah. you know you take a look at that. here you had this massive army complex. really the only people armed were the security personnel. >> this is a massive response we're looking at. there's a reported active shooter at naval yard in washington d.c. we are speaking with captain chuck nash. let me ask you this now. were there any reports, any word of specific threats regarding this naval yard today leading up to it that would have maybe had this response in the size it is? we're looking at this now. we've got trucks cars

vehicles armed individuals moving in fully armed individuals. do you believe or have heard there was any specific threat or is this the response we've been preparing for moving into this weekend? >> i'm not aware of any specific threat. as you know the chairman of the house intelligence committee came out two weeks ago and said the threat has never been higher since 9/11. this is all going to i think play out as we were talking about earlier. not going well for the shooter. unfortunately if you have an active shooter, it's not going to go well for the innocent. >> stand by now. we have an update. no change in status. kristin fisher relocated. she joins us from the scene. what are you seeing? tell us what you know so far.

>> reporter: well i tell you what i was down here two years ago when a shooter opened fire and killed 12 people here. it certainly feels a lot like that. we were just moved a block away from the main gates, about two blocks behind me. we were moved back five minutes ago. we don't know why. they're pushing perimeter back as more law enforcement swarms to the scene. there are dozens and dozens of police units and ambulances. there's a helicopter circling over head. on the drive over here you could sense the beefed up law enforcement at every base and check point getting closer to the navy yard. you could see guards with big guns looking like they were getting ready to go in or get closer to the scene. it's very much an active scene out here.

we don't know yet for sure what's going on inside. i know james rosen has reported that there is an active shooter inside. given the amount of activity that's happening out here right now, you just have to think there's something going on especially since we've been getting warnings from the fbi. department of homeland security about the possibility of some kind of attack heading to the july 4th weekend. we don't know that's what it is. we don't even know 100% certainty exactly what is going on inside. what is for sure is there's something happening. more and more people law enforcement, flooding to the scene. the gates are on lockdown. nobody can go in or out. you can't help but think about -- it was just twoer years ago we were here doing something similar. a gunman had a car and was able to get in the main gate over there. he was able to get through.

they supposedly made changes and made it more difficult to get inside the navy yard. we'll see how this plays out. right now, a lot of people trying to get in that are very worried. >> kristin fisher stay there. if you want to gather more information, that's great. we're joined by our own james rosen at the washington bureau. you've been on top of this story. what can you tell us? >> greetings from vienna. i received a statement labeled sbu sensitive but unclassified. it was issued 8:01 eastern time. it basically alerted all employees at the state department on this distribution list that something called the national military command center had confirmed an active shooter

at the navy yard. this represents confirmation from inside the department of defense, distributed to the state department of this active shooter at navy yard. the national military command center confirmed the presence of this active shooter shortly after 8:00 eastern time. that was blasted out to employees in a sensitive but unclassified bulletin. the national command center is part of the defense department part of the pentagon's command and communication center. >> james, let us ask you this. perhaps your law enforce. source -- law enforcement sources are telling you this. we know metro police are there, capital police, fbi. we saw marshals as well. fox news has learned the fbi

capital response squad is responding. do you have any idea what the fbi capital response squad is? >> it obviously sounds like it's part of the enormous patch work of law enforcement and security apparatus u.s. has. i will say this this doesn't happen at any time at any facility. we all have memories of what happened at the navy yard about a year ago. at the same time we have just received this bulletin from the fbi, department of homeland security and national security center urging everyone to be on alert. during this holy month of ramadan. the natural question is whether this attack whatever form it's taking however many people are involved is is somehow related

to that call by isis for this to be a time of calamity in their own countries on their home soil. one further point to make. because the navy yard instituted tighter procedures after the last incident there, it stands to reason this incident like the first incident involves somebody that probably already has or enjoys access to that facility. in the last case it was a contractor. here it may be another contractor another employee already with access privileged access to the facility. the question becomes really whether this is a fort hood type incident or a case of mental illness et cetera. if it were something like fort hood it would be this shooter is inspired or radicalized through the social media jennifer griffin was talking about earlier. obviously there was a lot we don't know. >> we do know this on top of things traveling with

the secretary of state and have access to may be what the secretary has for it to be unclassified. >> james mentioned fort hood. that was the deadly mass murder on a u.s. base in washington d.c. in 2013. it was the second deadliest mass murder on a u.s. base. >> that's right. we learned from james rosen there was inside confirmation of an active shooter at 8:01 this morning. we're looking at live photos of what looks like a massive response. we bring in former navy seal terrorism traffic force. jonathan what's your assessment now based on looks of this response and situation now reporting that there's a live shoot shooter at the naval base? >> from what i'm seeing i can't tell you much more than anybody else. james rosen was saying this could be similar to fort hood. i think it is similar in the

fact that it's a target hit before and someone has hit it again. there's some type of vulnerability they've exploited. >> are you aware of what changes were made from 2013 is to now in terms of security measures. prevention i'm sure was the name of the game. we're looking at a situation here. do you know specifically what changed? >> i don't know what changed, but i know we can judge by what didn't change by the fact there's another active shooter on there. if screening for contractors -- i don't know if that's changed, but that was huge and a big contributing factor to the last shooter. i hope that's not the case now. one thing that's going to be very telling after this is what was the response? let's hope the response was more

coordinated than last time. >> we do know apparently the officers are responding to building 197. just a word to control room let's see if we can grab a google map or something to show building 197 is there on the campus of the navy yard. it is apparently in the southwest corner of the facility. if you're just joining us it's 8:30 on the east coast. there has been a confirmed active shooter at the u.s. navy yard. the oldest naval insulation in the united states. >> the nation's capital which is significant. >> it's a mile from the u.s. capitol. the entire location is on lock down. jonathan we understand that the employees who responded to work -- this shooting apparently happened after 7:30 eastern time. a lot of people go to work early.

they're told to shelter in place. what does that mean? >> exactly what it says. they've gotten to the point now they're searching for the shooter. if they're sheltering in place, that means it's still an active accident scene. doesn't mean the shooter is active; butact if active active, but it means law enforcement is still clearing the scene, still trying to figure out what's going on. >> no one said gunmen. it's always been gun machine. in fort hood one of the problems was they weren't allowing men and women to walk around with firearms. you would think you would have the ability to neutralize any attacker wouldn't you think? >> i would hope so. they're if they're allowing people to have a firearm on that base we'll see. i predict if there are people that have them on there and

somebody is in there willing to use it like they should you would see this resolved quickly. >> jonathan, we keep you standing by as details come in. we're going in a minute. we're looking at a live picture there. confirmed reports of an active shooter at the washington d.c. navy yard. kristin, do you have more information for us? >> reporter: what i can tell you now is not only has our perimeter been pushed two blocks from the main gate about 30 seconds ago, there was a surge of activity. about five or six police cars literally drove up through here. about ten cameras set up. they quickly asked us to move and tore through the crime scene tape and took off. so we don't know where they were going on what they were doing. it seems like the scope of what's going on is expanding. there's a greater helicopter presence more law enforcement

vehicles flooding to the scene. on the way in here it's unbelievable the presence that you can see in these gate where the guards are. you can see them suiting up. looks like they're getting ready to go in and handle what's inside which we know is an active shooter situation of some kind. we don't know exactly what is going on in there now. it feels a lot like what happened two years ago in 2013 when a gunman who was a contractor and had a card to get in went into building 197 and opened fire killing 12 people. a lot of changes have been made since then. something clearly happened again. back to you. >> kristin, thank you very much. i want to bring in dan caldwell who works a block away. he's a marine. we understand whatever incident took place with this active shooter, it's the same building

as 2013. what are you seeing from your vantage point and hearing? >> i'm not in the area right now. marines stand post at certain areas within the facility. knowing the context of the facility in the building being discussed, it's a very important building. they did important research are there and had important function there is. i have to tell you i'm kind of shocked this is happening again. knowing how the marine corps and navy works, i thought they would have put things in place to make sure this never happened again. unfortunately that's not the case. >> have you been back since the incident in 2013? >> yes, i have. i didn't go on the navy yard. i do work on capitol hill. this isn't far from capitol hill. i went back through. quite frankly, i didn't see

changes to how they were dining security bag checks searches things like that. it's a facility that has a mixed security force meaning that you have marines that stand post in certain areas. then what we call navy ma basically mps that stand post in other areas. most the security on the base was private security and considers that stand post at most gates. >> very interesting. you're saying he's been there since 2013 and not seen significant changes to security which may be part of the reason we have the incident at the same building two years later. >> let's go to peter doocy who was at the shooting in 2013. i know you're getting situated now. we understand apparently the building on lockdown is building 197 in the southwest corner of the facility.

peter doocy, that's the same spot there was trouble last time right? >> reporter: that's right. we're seeing quite a response from all agencies just now. we got here a few minutes ago. we saw two men with vests that said federal agent heading this way with long rifles in a hurry. i saw somebody from the is secret service arriving. does look like there's a d.c. metro police crew that just arrived. they're at the corner here. it's hard to tell exactly what is is going on at 197 from where we are. we can't see it. this is very -- another way this is similar to what happened in 2013 is that this park police helicopter which they laurchled just across the ancosta river,

they can see building 197. the helicopter is doing the same wide circles around the entire base that we saw in the beginning of the last incident at the navy yard before they knew exactly where everything was going on. we're told that people are being asked to shelter in place. a lot inside do not know what's going on. obviously looks like the park police is is trying to figure it out as well the helicopter you're seeing the flying 200 feet over the building. now there's another helicopter and looks like a fixed wing aircraft circling slowly around much, much much higher. there's a lot of activity. it's a frantic thing. >> do you have updates yet? no updates yet. people are sheltering in place.

it's quite -- they're getting organized right now. we don't know much. >> peter, so you were there at the shooting in 2013. the difference was as i recall nobody had any idea where the shooter was and everybody had taken cover. is it your feeling people are taking cover closer to the facility? you're a couple blocks away. >> no. this is actually pretty much exactly where i was two years ago. it does appear they have somebody leaning out of that helicopter. remember last time the helicopter flying really low ended up rescuing folks stranded and many danger on the roof. i believe four people made their way to the roof and signalled for help. we hear sirens arriving.

not sure the take you can get at the other part of the street. the case they could be look for an active shooter and also people to help. that's what they did last time. they pulled someone off the roof. they took them across to hospitals. right now, we haven't seen them lower the basket which would indicate they were putting people down or taking any victims potentially or anybody who's been sheltering in place up. it really does just seem they're trying to figure out what's going on, the same we are. there are a lot of people a lot of cops a lot of federal agencies. not much else. >> stay here. we'll give you a second to get hold of the situation and tell us what you observed. meanwhile, let's go to bill daily. he's on the phone. former fbi investigator. bill, we're watching this

unfold. fbi has a presence along with the special unit to respond to such activities. what are you assessing from this situation? >> there's a number of things happening now. first of all, it's an ongoing activity. we don't know whether or not it's one person or other people. we don't know if people are held or not. one of the main things is kind of the command and control of this. peter was just reporting you have various agencies responding. all trying to get there to provide support. the big thing is making sure that either of them get in crossfire or the in their own way searching the buildings. the big concern here is also that you may have people who have sheltered in place. it's a matter of sorting out who the people sheltering in place versus the shooter or shooters. we don't know at this point.

very involved scene and situation for law enforcement. safety of civilians and identifying those that may be responsible. >> we understand the building has been confirmed the same area they're focussing on the eerie echo of 2013. it's a 41-acre facility. it would mean 2800 people would be on lock down. what's securing a vast situation such as this? >> first thing, they need to establish that perimeter and make sure they close off that building from people getting in. it's only then authorized law enforcement agencies going in an organized fashion. they'll kneedneed to go room by room. they can look at cameras to see what's happening, if shooter is active in the hallway or buildings or rooms inside the building. they'll need to do this very

slow slow. they'll have to get others out safe. to make sure they have not scooped up the shooter with those people. >> washington d.c. is city of landmarks. the navy yard is one of the largest employers in southeast washington d.c. a mile or so is u.s. capital. another mile or two away is white house. you've got the pentagon not far away. hundreds of thousands of people that work in the federal government. we understand the plaza across from the white house has been closed. this depicts where the white house is. the plaza across has been closed to tourists. reearlier heard the capitol, didn't change they changed the security posture.

given what's happening and warnings all week you have got to imagine that would change, right? >> definitely. when something like this happens -- first we were on increased level of awareness and alert. this is in advance of 4th of july celebration this is weekend. there's been heightened awareness. it will put other areas on higher level or perhaps closing down temporarily. they don't know whether this is an isolated incident with one person or orchestrated with several buildings to be targeted. no evidence to support that suggestion. >> we've been covering this the last 35 minutes. the first report came 8:01

perhaps. we see that nothing has been -- nobody has stood down. there's been nothing defused. the body armor is still going on. cars are pulling up. does that confirm for you shooter and incident whatever it is is still unfolding. the communication would be good enough to unwind all these different agencies? >> brian, i wish i could give you a clear answer. we don't know what led up to this. did the shooter leave the building? was it something where there was initial gunfire and the person left the building? these are variables that law enforcement need to be assessing. we can't term it right now. >> bill stand by. kristin is joining us from the complex. you've got a witness. >> reporter: i do. he's over there.

here's what i heard him say moments ago. he was inside the navy yard when this all went down. he says he didn't hear gunshots. all of a sudden law enforcement officials of some kind a bunch of them rushed in and said get out of the building. stay out of the cafeteria, get out. he said this man along with everybody else inside they got down low. sorry, we're asked to move. here's the gentleman now. let me scoot over to let you in. your name and title. >> lieutenant commander scott williams i'm with the guided missile destroyer program, chief engineer of the program. not sure what caused it. my colleague next to me here were talking. we heard someone shouting get out of the building stay away from the cafeteria, everyone get out. we were nearest in office. from lessons learned from last

time we got in the office shut the door locked it. that was it until the police arrived to escort us out. we didn't see anything. we didn't see any scuffling. didn't hear anything. >> no gunshots explosions? >> nothing at all can which was surprising. time we actually did hear them. they were distinct. we didn't hear gunshots this thyme. >> where were you and how far is this from building 197 where the shooter opened fire two years ago killing so many people. how far were you from that? >> actually the shootout with police with the individual took place outside our office. it was around -- it was around the corner from our office. you could hear everything. >> who was telling you to get down? >> one of the individuals in our building. we're on the second floor. one of the individuals that worked on our floor either heard

something or someone said something. she immediate ily lyily reacted. i commend her for that. >> obviously people still inside. some got out. how did you and others get out? >> from my experience last time my office was along with three other individuals. it was an out of the way office. we spent four or a half hours in the building last time. i would say it's probably because they're going to each room. there's a lot of rooms in that building. they're probably going through each room and being ma tick louse about who they identify and what they do. >> there's a lot of talk going on. can you provide any sort of clarity? >> unfortunately i can't. i'm going by what i've heard. it's speculation. i have heard there was an active shooter. i have heard potentially may be

a victim which really hits home. i know so many -- i've been here a long time. i know so many people. i hope that's not the case. that's what i'm hearing. we didn't see anything. >> you were here two years ago. what sort of changes has happened in the two years? >> i've seen security changes. there's two entrances now. security is much more tight on who has access to the building. every individual has to check their card. you have your id card. every individual has to show the card scan it. they're doing a lot with respect to checking each individual and make sure you have clearance to get in the building. even the entrance to the navy yard they're scanning every id. >> you're allowed to carry weapons in the building? >> no. absolutely not. the only ones authorized to carry weapons are the security, haired security folks that do

security for the building. like myself standards, are not authorized to carry weapons. >> where are your colleagues now, just all standing out here like we are waiting for information? >> some of my colleagues weren't in there. one is standing next to me. our boss was actually not in today. we have contacted him. as far as i know most people people are safe. the gentleman that drove me in hopefully he's watching this. i don't know where he was. >> you have been on a heightened state of alert due to the fact we're getting so close to 4th of july holiday and whatnot. how did that play into security measures in place today? i'm not sure. i know at the front gate again, checking all ids. seemed like they had extra

security. i think it was really additional presence of security which may have been why the response was so fast. i do have to commend law enforcement on the quick responses they gave us. i have to applaud them on that. it was great. >> finally, when this happens again, two years later, what goes through your mind? what are you thinking feeling, when you're like oh my gosh could this be happening again? >> that's hard. when i do look behind me and see that, it's kind of unbelievable kind of surreal to think here we are again with the possibility of another shooting in there in my building hurting our people. yeah that really has an impact. it hurts. >> lieutenant colonel, thanks for being with us. glad you got out safe. >> thank you very much. kristin fisher thank you very much. we learned a lot from him. he didn't hear the actual shots but did see the law enmentforcement

say get out. he did. he had been there couple years ago when aaron alexis shot 12 people outside his office. he added one important thing. that is while watching this situation coming up on an hour now, we've got information earlier while they had made security changes, certain people could still carry weapons inside. he just confirmed that is not the case. only the people who are on security there in building 197 and the other facilities can actually carry arms. that's good news. if somebody tried to get a gun inside the facility did any sort of encounter with the police happened at the check point. . hearing from scott williams and kristin fisher there. just inside. he had been there four hours in 2013 before he was able to be re

released and escape the situation. >> mr. williams made it clear. not everybody that's in there is armed. like fort hood once you're in believe it or not you're in the base can't carry a firearm around. we know according to the report we just got, they're only able to enter and leave much like this building certain entrances and exits. >> this is shocking. we're going to bring in former intelligence officer frank. we originally heard personnel was armed there and authorized. we just heard from commander scott williams through the interview that only security officials are to be armed making this a soft target for something like this to happen. what do you say about that? >> that is correct elisabeth. right up the road from where i work ten years u.s. central

commanders in state of florida. concealed permit state. even if you have permits and licenses to carry a weapon you may not bring your weapon onto the air force base. i'm not surprised to hear you can't bring your weapon to the washington naval yard. >> the incident that happen at 7:30 is still not under control at 8:52. >> the clearing of an insulation even a shift during a security drill, is a tedious and time-consuming situation. you have to check every corner every shadow every closet. it's a time-consuming process that cannot be rushed.

>> we point out while they were early reports an hour ago of an active shooter there because shots were heard. people were told shelter in place. given the fact it's a lock down for the most part nobody is leafing that building. it's harder to get information out because people that have the information are inside the building. >> that's correct. lock down means lock down. you do not leave your desk. there may be security areas folks go for something like this. by in large, you do not move from designated area. the only people to be moving are security personnel. if you're not a security person you're assumed to be the shooter. >> that's i a lot of people. could be over 2,000 at this point to cover at this naval yard. >> absolutely. as one of your earlier guests said it's not an army base or

camp. it's a huge office complex. i've been several times myself. you have national security and intelligence workers. >> we're getting an update. navy yard spokesman says no casualties. no shooter spotted at this point at the navy yard. this according to roiters. >> what did you say? >> the navy yard spokesperson said no casualties and no shoot shooter spotted. >> that's odd. why would there be a response like this? >> the early report was active shooter. they heard shots. hope it wasn't fireworks.

>> confirmed in vienna with james traveling with the secretary of state. that was the report they got, active shooter. that's interesting. >> that was 8:01 there morning. witnesses say they've been doing active shooter drills. one saying everyone knew what to do when he were alerted. people were shouting get out to stay out of the cafeteria. we heard from scott with details. >> the fire department says no injuries at the washington navy yard after the reported active shooter. so that is very good news. let's hope that's right. >> this is what local fox affiliates are reporting according to the eyewitness. people running for exits, lots of confusion. lots like last time. we just defendant active shooter drills for this. everyone knew what to do. people were screaming get out, stay out of the cafeteria.

>> that's right. one witness, lieutenant commander, saying most would have arrived super early. many of that number we've been saying over 2,000, would be at work now. we have spoken to have been able to get out earlier. we spoke to one lieutenant commander there. >> i tell you what this is a great development. navy yard spokesman says no casualties no shooter spotted. former fbi agent carl is with us. let me ask you this. the word went out and ricochetted there was an active shooter, lock down. what do you think? if this is in fact the case and i hope it is, you've got to look at what caused this. there's obviously security here that allowed it to escalate to the point it's in now.

>> the shooter has not been shotted. this is still an open situation. they're still searching. that is good news that we have right now. we have a shooter spoted we're still in the waiting game. >> there may have been shots fired. the fact of the matter is how the military institute had new policies. the new policies they tried to implement are probably still debated at a high level and probably aren't put in place yet. this obviously causes pandemonium now. >> with all law enforcement here i worry about the coordination to get them one place and hit at another face. in fact if that was what happened on the active yard. >> d.c. fire says no casualties

no shooters spotted either. >> reporter: that's great news to hear. i tell you what there's still a lot of confusion. not quite as much chaos, but confusion out here. tons of people that work inside are pack along the perimeter trying to figure out what's going on. i just heard somebody high up in uniform coming out saying nobody is going to get back in the building today. just head on home. what happened happened, it sounds like nobody else is going to be let back in. talked to a lot of people. nobody down there heard any gunshot. we have the helicopter overhead lots of law enforcement on the scene. it seems like it's quietening down. >> 8:01 the national military command confirmed an active shooter. now we say none spotted.

doesn't mean there wasn't one shooter or isn't one out there now that they haven't found yet. >> no casualties is the key. >> with die down in the confusion, there's still action there. there's steps in place to either move into that facility there at the naval yard. is everyone still lining up? you're not seeing retreat in security are you? >> oh no. definitely not a retreat of any kind. it's just -- seems to be the energy level, level of chaos, and fear actually is really quietening down a little bit. look at the law enforcement officers. it's still a very chaotic scene out here. back to you. >> thank you very much. abc news is reporting the major police response to the navy yard was triggered by one phoned report of a security

incident according to sources. sounds like somebody phoned it in. >> that's according to abc not a fox source. thanks so much. our continuing coverage will continue with america's "newsroom." thanks for listening. thanks for watching. bill: breaking news on a story we are trying to figure out. a washington navy yard was on lockdown. huge police presence flooding that scene. a scene where a massacre took place two years ago. so be patient with us as we try to work this out. martha: navy officials originally said that a shelter in place order was in place.
