desire to work as well. thank you for watching the real store. i'm back here friday, andm4d tot ance putt putt. >> protesters calling for a day of civil disobedience after other policeman shot a protester. michael brown's killing sparked riot, arson attacks and looting. there's breaking news. what do protesters have planned for today? plus. gunfire gunfire. >> cops returning fire after two women started shooting at a u.s. consulate, but one of the attackers escaped and teams are right now trying to track her down. and new research shows nearly half of all americans live in areas vulnerable to earthquakes. not just the west coast either.
12:01 pm
ahead, do you live in one of those higher risk areas and not even know it? let's get to it. good monday afternoon, state of emergency in st. louis county, missouri. a look outside ofederal courthouse in st. louis, couple of hundred demonstrators are there for what they're calling moral monday. a half hour ago our team watched as police made a couple of arrests after demonstrators crossed the police line. we'll keep a close eye on this with live pictures and let you know. things in ferguson were mostly peaceful last night until people who police say were not part of the demonstrations started shooting. gunfire gunfire [ gunshots ]es. >> protesters and could a crews running for cover after hearing what sounds like gunfire.
12:02 pm
we have more images in our slide show for you this afternoon. police say that man opened fire on a series of officers -- i should say group of officers -- and they fired back. wounding him critically. he is 18 years old and charged with assault. this is a suspect on the ground from last night. the suspect's father is calling the police version of what happened, quote, bunch of lies, unquote. that shooting happened shortly after what police are calling a remarkable amount of gunfire between two groups in a separate incident. but again, police have been careful to say those doing the shooting are not part of the protests and that ferguson has come too far since last year to allow people like that to change things. >> there's too many people that have worked to hard. i'm not talking about the police department. i'm talking about people in our community, they worked too hard-for-the to happen and be undermined. >> until lost night things were quiet. there will peaceful marches during the day. including this win with michael
12:03 pm
brown's father. a very different scene later on. for the first anytime days of protests, some officers were dressed in riot gear, which was surprising to all those concerned. demonstrators set vehicles on fire, witnesses say one person threw a bolt at the cops but missed. police at one point tried using smoke to break up the crowd. here you can see a protester holding up a flare in the rain. there will windows broken. that's a cash register in the wet street there. police say they did make a few arrests. here you can see officers back behind a police cruiser. they say one officer end up with a few cuts after getting hit with a rock to his face. you don't see that here. official says protesters also pepper-sprayed two other officers. joining us now is jim salter, a reporter for the "associated press," says he was half a block away when he heard the gunshots and also the author of this book
12:04 pm
"deadly force: fatal confrontation with police." what happen last night? >> it was a night that was kind of touchy from the get-go. heavy rain passed through the area, and as soon as it cleared, things started to get shaky. there was a confrontation between police and protesters that was pretty rowdy. you mentioned a couple of incidents, one officer was hit in face with a rock in addition to the pepper-spray incident. then all of a sudden gunshots rang out and that's when we all ducked for cover. >> police are saying the person or maybe persons involved with the shooting were not part of the demonstrations. what do they mean by that according to your reporting? >> reporter: these demonstrations have generally drawn about 90% to 95's of the people who are there for a good cause, but always a few people show up just to cause trouble. the people who were causing the trouble last newt were that demonstrating. they were not showing support for michael brown.
12:05 pm
they were in the background. breaking into buildings and the chief is making a point that -- to make it clear there are people there for a good cause and people there to cause trouble. >> they're able to figure out who is who by what? >> reporter: that's the hard part. you don't. when you have thousands of people in some cases from last august and november, and the case from last night, several hundred people, you can't, and the police -- they do their best, but the people are intermingling so it's difficult to see who is there for what reason. >> jim salter, reporter for the "associated press." what's going on there today? the state of emergency now for the county? give us the details. >> reporter: the state of emergency actually is just forry around chief, john bell mars, moring options to take control of the situation. as opposed to ferguson police being in control of the
12:06 pm
situation. >> and the mood at the courthouse today in st. louis, it's my understanding some demonstrators crossed a police line. what can how report? >> reporter: they've been planning a day of civil unrest for a couple of weeks. this was not in response to the shooting last night. this is something that's been planned to mark the anniversary of michael brown's death. 50 people endedded up being arrested after marching to the courthouse and crossing a line and blocking the entrance. some of the people were clergy. this was very peaceful protest and had been planned for some time. >> we have been talking bat few blocks in ferguson, missouri and around the federal -- the courthouse there in st. louis, bigger picture, in and around st. louis, and suburbs. what is the attitude now? has anything changed? >> reporter: i think it's pretty fluid right now. i think everybody was expecting kind of a peaceful weekend, and this even last night caught everyone offguard. that's kind of one of the things we're looking for right now.
12:07 pm
how are pipe going to react. it's been a bit of a mixed reaction. some people thinking police overstepped their boundaries and others thing thinking the police were justified. >> jim, thank you. i mentioned organizers were calling for this to be a day of civil disobedience but did not give details. trace gal -- gallagher has details. what do you expect today? >> reporter: so far, nobody has ordered or offered any real specifics except they plan to bring attention to police violence against minority. the peaceful protest in st. louis there had been some arrests for crossing barriers, and we are expecting more people to begin gathering in ferguson as the day goes on, even residents in st. louis county are unclear what to expect. one man likened it to a hurricane, heading to your city but you don't know if it's category 1 or category 5. police in ferguson and st. louis county are planning on disruptions throughout the day
12:08 pm
and night but nothing on the scale of when the grand jury decided not to indict officer darren wilson in the shooting of michael brown. missouri governor jay nixon has also released a statement calling for peaceful protests so the region can continue moving in what he calls a positive direction. but they are bracing, and it's all hands on deck throughout the day. >> are we getting anything from protesters about the shooting last night? >> reporter: their biggest concern so far seems to be the fact that the shooting involved plain clothessed police officers who were not wearing body cameras. remember, there's been this major push to make sure that every single officer is equipped with audio and video. the organization for black struggle released a statement saying, and i'm quoting here, after a year of protests and conversations about police accountability, having plain clothed officers without body cameras leaves us with only the officer's account of the incident, which is clearly a problem. so while the family of the
12:09 pm
shooting victim is saying they believe the police shooting was unjustified, the various protest groups in and around ferguson and st. louis county are at for now focusing on police policy in the early going. >> trace gallagher, thank you. a statement from the county executive is out. he says my authority as county executive issue a state of emergency effective immediately. the recent acts of violence will not be tolerated in the community which has walked to hard to rebuild and become stronger. state of emergency now for ferguson and surrounding areas. updates from there throughout the afternoon 9/11 the dust is still settling after the first republican presidential debate. candidate carly fiorina says she is get mortgage support after her performance. that, and the turmoil in donald trump's campaign. coming up from the fox news deck. why do so many people choose aleve?
12:10 pm

we're waiting for the next round of polls to come out and see where the republican presidential candidates took place. but carly fiorina says she is already seeing a spike in campaign donations. a campaign shakeup for donald trump. he claims he fired his top adviser. the adviser says he quit. the adviser tweeted, and i quote, sorry, donald trump didn't fire me, i fired trump. mike emanuel is live in
12:13 pm
washington. there is a new nbc poll out and it shows trump's lead is even bigger and jeb bush falling. right? >> reporter: there's some questions about the calculations of that poll but you're right, the poll numbers are still strong, whatever you look at. a lot of republicans sound concerned. south carolina senator lindsey graham says the g.o.p. has a problem with hispanics and women, and trump's rhetoric isn't helping. others are also talking trump. >> in the end, i think voters are smart. they realize that not every republican shares the beliefs that one particular candidate does, and the same way that not every democrat shears the beliefs of one person. >> i don't think you get things done by insulting everyone. i have a track record of getting things done. of challenging the status quo. of leading towards results. >> reporter: with trump polling strong and controversy, they face more questions about him. >> on the democratic side,
12:14 pm
hillary clinton is back on the campaign trail, and one of her competitors is calling for more debates, not surprisingly. >> reporter: absolutely right. hillary clinton is in new hampshire, selling her plan to make college more affordable. clinton is pledging that students will be able to attend an in-state public university to get a four-year degree without having to take out a loan for tuition. she is also pitching free tuition at community colleges for. her campaign says the price tag is estimated 350 billion over ten years and will be paid for in a video released ahead of the announcement, here's the pitch. >> i believe our success isn't measured by how much the wealthiest americans have but by how many young people go to college without drowning in debt. i want to make college affordable. >> reporter: also today former maryland governor martin o'malley is complain bath lack of debates on the democratic side. he ripped the dnc saying it has tried to make the process
12:15 pm
undemocratic by telling iowa and new hampshire they can only have one debate. o'malley says people do not want a core -- coronation. the pentagon finished drafting its plans to close the detention center? game bay in cuba. that's what a spokesperson is telling "the hill" newspaper. he says the pentagon will send plans to lawmakers after congress returns from the august recess. other government agencies need to approve it first. the detension facility at guantanamo bay holds 116 detainees, and, gift this, month them, 52 whom the feds have deemed eligible for transfer. the feds say they have dramatically increased their estimates for the number of americans in areas that could see an earthquake within decades. are you in an earthquake zone and not know it? the numbers have changed dramatically in just the last nine year, and the brand new ones may shock a lot of people. details next from fox news deck.

12:20 pm
growth as well as advances in science and technology. as far as where americans live right now, 143 million live in an area with some potential. 57 with moderate potential, and 28 million live in an area with high potential for damage. here's a map from the u.s. geological survey, kind of shows where the earthquakes would be most intense, and right here i have the top five states with the highest populations that are exposed to this. it's oregon, tennessee, utah, washington, and california comes in at number one. >> i bet some people will be surprised that tennessee is so high. >> and actually south carolina, nevada, arkansas, missouri, illinois, all made the top ten list as well. >> thank you. i was going to say, tennessee, bus there's the new madrid fault on the left side. let's bring in a physicist and professor at city college of new york. 143 million people. that's insane.
12:21 pm
the change from 2006. >> that's right. the federal government is notorious for underplaying big risks. so this is a flip-flop. 100-degree the reversal because of the overwhelming body of information. population is exploded on the west coast. but we now know the earth is more unstable than we previously thought. for example, the cascade falls. >> in the pacific northwest. >> that's right. oregon, washington state. is connected to the san andreas fault. this is the nightmare scenario. two for one. the two big earthquake faults on the west coast are actually connected. >> does that mean an earthquake on one fault could trigger an earthquake on the other? >> that's right. the 18906 earthquake was perhaps the exception. the 1906 earthquake rattled san francisco but did not set off trimmer 0 then cascades fault. we realize going through prehistory, going back hundreds,
12:22 pm
thousands of years into the past, which we can do by looking at ocean sediments and lake sediments -- there's a lynchage -- linkage. >> this is scientifically provable. >> that's right, and we're finding new fates. the fukushima fault that generated the 9.0 earthquake was not even on the charts. it was not known to sustain a 9.0. and so seismologists got it completely wrong with the fukushima disaster. >> we hear about the west coast all the time. people in the mid-south know about in the new madrid fault bit there's another one in tennessee. >> we have to realize, the 1906 san francisco quick was note only one. the 1812 earthquake that hit new madrid. now, new york city, where we are right now, fortunately does not have to worry because we're in the middle of a huge plate, and the whole plate moves all at once. so the small earthquakes that knocked out the washington mon
12:23 pm
independent washington, dc, that was felt into canada because the fault moves as one big plate. >> i want to talk about this that we have on the screen -- or did -- the map. it's really kind of weird looking. the larger areas of pink, that is the area of most concern. see the chart, bottom right? the top color is the most concern. the bottom color, the light blue, that carolina blue looking color, is the lower end of it. but you see all this pink and yellow on the map. that's the entirety of the mid-south. >> yes, the fact an earthquake could really ruin your day, and it is the day that people in neighboring states as well. so this means that for you, let's say, as a homeowner, you should be prepared. talk to your family before the what to do in case of an emergency, where to go in case of a tsunami that hits the west coast, what to do in case the internet is out, telephone systems are out. boy a radio as a backup system. buy canned goods that can last
12:24 pm
for many months and stock up an water. >> memphis, nashville, atlanta, carolinas, and in addition, what about the science of fracking? in oklahoma. >> if you take a look at small earthquakes, for example, dallas oklahoma city, superimpose it upon the map where fracking is most active you. find practically a one to one correspondent by superimposing the maps. it's almost certain that fracking has initiated small 3.0 earthquakes. not big ones but small ones i can. >> is that a precursor or do we know they won't get any bigger with fracturing? >> we think they're not going to get any bigger with fracking. the new madrid fault is not that far away and that sustained a huge earthquake that affected the course of the mississippi river in 1812. >> we'll see. great to have you again, thank you. >> thank you. a wild soccer brawl in the united states.

12:31 pm
hours earlier investigators say a bomb at a police station hurt 10 people there police responding to the scene say they later got into a gunfight which left an officer to and two attackers in dead. in turkey, kurdish rebels fired at a helicopter carrying turkish soldiers killing one. some context now. jennifer griffin at the pentagon. why do we care? that question has not been answered. turkey is being very helpful and people aren't liking it. >> well, shepard, what is interesting, the background is that turkey has opened a new front in the war against isis, lawning a parallel war against the pkk, a kurdish group that the u.s. and others have designated as terrorists. that war is blowing back on the u.s. and turkey. ankara has been turned the u.s. fight against isis would embolden the kurds which they believe want to carve out a state. the state departmentncí defend turkey's actions. >> their attacks on pkk are as a
12:32 pm
result of attacks they're suffering by this terrorist group inside turkey. >> right now the kurds control all of turkey's border with syria, except for a small 68-mile corridor. should the kurds gain control of that section of the border, they would have access all the way from iraq to the mediterranean sea. the turks areogy the war against isis to settle score with the kurdish pkk. >> timing is interesting here. >> that's right. the string of attackses one day after the u.s. sent six f-16s to turkey's air base in southeast turkey along with hundred u.s. military personnel. on july 24-inch the turks finally agreed to allow u.s. war planes to again using their bases to fight isis after a year of resisting u.s. requests to do so. that same day turnish war planes struck isis targets in syria.
12:33 pm
there were waves of strikes against the kurds in northern iraq. u.s. military sources tell us those airstrikes came very close to u.s. ground personnel who were training iraqi kurds, leading to harsh words from serb u.s. officials. turkey has ignored u.s. corns about opening this new front against the pkk. >> here at home the feds charging a suspect from new jersey who hey say tried to join isis overseas. he made his first cower-and-in newark this afternoon. the feds arrested him this morning and i news fays 20 years in prison. investigators say this suspect lookedded a isis propaganda automobile and once talk about forming a small army with his friends. the fed says he is the sixth suspect they arrested since june, all of them part of the same broader plot to generally

support the islamic state. the journalist for the "washington post" newspaper detained in iran for more than a year had his final court hearing today. his name is jason rezaian. iranian officials charged him with espionage. did so last year. his attorney tells the "associated press" that the journalist spoke in his own defense today but she didn't give specifics. if the court convicts him he could face up to 20 years behind bars. this has been a fully closed door trial. officials refused to let even the man's wife and mother into the courtroom. the united states government and the "washington post" newspaper have criticized the charges. the post's executive editor said today the process has been anything but transparent and just, unquote. the reporter is among four americans believed to be held in iran. u.s. officials pushed iran to release each of them. mike newton is a professor of international law at vanderbilt university. thank you. >> good to see you. >> what is happening here
12:35 pm
exactly? we're about to figure this out, i'm guessing. >> well, maybe. the revolutionary court is a regular feature of repressive regimes. so the aspect of secret evidence no publicity, and very, very, very thin evidence, it's really an extension of politics that you have seen in places like saddam's iraq, hitler's determineie in now iran. >> we don't have an idea whether they're about to let him go or question to taken him for 20 or what? >> i think the chances of letting him go or slim and none. this is just pure diplomacy weighing in. there's an appeals process, statutoriry. so, it's possible they'll do a very harsh sentence and then the political powers that be might indicate on appeal for clemency or release. that's possible but not like lie. >> how do the politics of all of this relate to the politics of the nuclear deal? the president and others say keep the two separate. but we're in the real world
12:36 pm
here. >> we are in the real world and this is an american. in fact in that dimension the politics are no different than any other american on trial anywhere in the world. we expect our government to go to all out lengths to make sure that trials are fundamentally fair, open, and transparent, and don't violate fundamental due process rights. that particularly true in these revolutionary courts, so if expect full-blown diplomacy. itself might have been an opportunity to link it in with the nuclear deal. they chose not to do that. but that doesn't mean that the need for diplomacy to preserve the fundamental due process rights of an american, injustly tried overseas, is any less. these courts have a record of ajudging convictions on almost in evidence. they've been used to for example, persecute religious minorities, anybody who -- politicians in iran want to see punished, this is the vehicle. >> mike newton, an expert in

12:42 pm
♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ geico motorcycle, great rates for great rides. air traffic controllers are working hours that could lead to chronic fatigue and mistakes like bringing planes too close together. that's from a government study obtained by the "associated press." it found nearly 20% of air traffic controllers made what was termed significant errors in one year alone, and the average controller gets fewer than six hours sleep per night. the ap claims the feds refused to release the study for years.
12:43 pm
the feds say crews on four different commercial flights spotted a drone while trying to land at newark international airport. they say it happened this weekend, and that each jet was between 2,000 and 3,000 feet in the air at the time. the federal aviation administration reports it's received, quote, significant increase in reported drone sightings near planes. we told you last week about another drone scare at new york's jfk airport. no drones have collided with jets so far. but the feds opinion out, flying drones near any manned aircraft is very dangerous. and that anybody who does so could face criminal charges and fines of up to 25 grand. rick leventhal is at liberty airport in new jersey. what else do we know? >> reporter: four different pilots on four different planes saw the unmanned aircraft on approach to newark. we reached out to faa to offend ute what tape of drones and how close they were.
12:44 pm
have what heard back. we know the planes were between 8 miles and 13 miles from theon, which is beyond the five-mile faa restricted area but they were at 2,000 to 3,000 feet.io% the drops are not legally allowed to fly higher than 400, and the faa says it has the authority to levy significant fines and federal, state and local entities could bring criminal charges. but catching the operators may not beesy because they've sold more than a million drones in u.s. >> no collisions anywhere? >> but dozens of close calls, and a lot of people in law enforcement and aviation and at least one very famous pilot all say it's inevitable. this is an accident waiting to happen. especially when you consider there are two warnings every single day, two sightings by pilots to faa. and consider bird strikes, more than 11,000 bird strikes on planes in 2016.
