latest exercise craze, get on yoga. just what it sounds like. >> heather: sounds like fake news put apparently started to raise money for the 4h agricultural program. hl see you, have a great weekend. >> heather: bye. >> fox news alert, another arrest in the manchester terror attack. officers discover a working bomb family in the home of the dead attacker. i'm sandra smith. >> sandra: authorities carrying out a series of arrests, coming across a huge stash of bombmaking materials that leads them to believe there could be more bombs out there somewhere else. here is the latest. police making their tenth arrest with eight men still in custody. aged 18 to 38, on suspicion of terror. 66 people remain in the hospital and terror threat across the u.k. remains at critical. relations between the u.s. and
11:01 am
britain have been strained after the publication of photos from the attack scene. photos that apparently came from an american source. secretary of state rex tillerson taking responsibility. >> with respect to the release of information, inappropriately, information that was released by some one. information that's vital to an ongoing investigation. information that's vital to capturing those who were involved in this heinous event. certainly, we condemn that. we take full responsibility for that. and we obviously regret that that happened. >> sandra: rick leven26789hal is live in manchester. . not only does the threat level remain at critical, major trauma centers have been told to prepare for the possibility of another terror attack this holiday weekend. there was a heavy police presence, not just across manchester, not just at the arena where the attack happened, which is still a crime scene
11:02 am
four days later, you see officers on almost every corner, in many cases heavily armed. and the raids are happening pretty much around the clock. in the search for more evidence and more possible members of the terror network that supported suicide bomber salman abedi. we got the first video of what is reportedly to be abedi, wearing a brown robe, taking out his trash last july at his family home. police have eight young men in xus to di, authorities call significant, in custody, significant to the investigation. those men include abedi's older brother as we've reported, his younger brother and father questioned in libya. >> sandra: and we have also been waiting to know whether or not the 22 dead in this attack, rick, have been identified. what do we know about that? >> all of them publicly identified now. 10 of the 22 were teenagers or children. the youngest was an 8-year-old girl named sassy, teenage couple
11:03 am
who wanted to be together forever, and they died together a15-year-old girl from liverpool, whose brother was seriously injured in the blast, 66 people are still hospitalized, 23 of them in critical care. many with horrific injuries that will require multiple reconstructive surgeries of the mourning continues here obviously, and so does the search for more evidence and more possible suspects. you mention the bombmaking materials found in a rented apartment a couple of miles from the arena where abedi is believed to have assembled the bomb. >> sandra: rick, thank you. gunmen in ee jept going on a bloody rampage opening fire on a bus filled with coptic christians. 28 people killed, mostly children. more than 2 dozen wounded. the deadly attack coming on the eve of ramadan the holiest month for muslims. connor is here live from the mideast bureau. >> this is actually a caravan of mechanics taking coptic
11:04 am
christians from cairo down to an area that is heavily populated christian community in egypt, about 150 or so miles south of cairo. according to survivors of the attack, they say that up to as many as 10 or so mill i tans wearing masks and military type uniforms opened fire on their caravan. two buses were hit, 28 people were killed in this attack. that number has been increasing over the last couple of hours. still very well could increase further with more than a dozen people injured. victims were on their way to the modest area of st. samuel the confessor. coptic christians make up about 10% of 92 million egyptians under a wave of attack about the last year and a half, primarily there isis but other insurgent groups as well. no group claimed responsibility. but this has the hallmarks of an isis attack that comes on as you said the eve of ramadan. just a few weeks ago, isis
11:05 am
launched a string of attacks, palm sunday, killing dozens coptic christian churches, also attacked around christmas in december as well. egypt's president has vowed and really made a lot of public statements about cleaning up the security situation and doing a lot to change the security situation in egypt. which has steadily deteriorated. but so far extra security on churches, promises to the coptic community has done little to protect the coptic community. we're seeing an assault there, increasingly the christian community in egypt trying to flee, they're trying to get out of the country and looking to anyway they can to secure not only the churches but overall community which has seen just a wave of attacks, sandra, in the last really 18 months or so. >> sandra: connor, thank you. fox news alert, president trump
11:06 am
arriving for a dinner meeting right now, at the g7. we know that that is a dinner hosted by the italian president and first lady will be present. his first foreign trip continues as he returns home tomorrow. all right, well mr. trump isn't exactly known for his apologies. but that's what he's doing, actually, over the leak of these intelligence on the manchester bombing. secretary of state rex tillerson taking full responsibility for it. vowing to get to the bottom of it. steven yates, deputy national security advisor to dick cheney and ceo of d.c., rebecca heinrichs from the hudson institute and foreign policy advisor to congressman trent franks. a lot going on with this. we talked to ambassador john bolton yesterday, steven, he said this is a problem for president trump and his administration. they've got to get ahold of this. we see these apologies for rex
11:07 am
tillerson, the president himself, this a good start to tackling the problem? >> where they have to start. and i think they are in full agreement with the problems that our allies have complained about, totally unacceptable. compromises operational details. potentially signals the enemy in ways that are extremely unhelpful. and it's problem that's been there for the administration more broadly than these national security issues. i don't doubt for a moment that the president and his cabinet are very, very motivated. they have to start taking operational steps to clamp down on control of the information. >> sandra: rebecca it is a big problem, as you saw, british police became irate over this. there was a cancellation of sharing information, then it came back o how is the administration handling this right now? >> i think, again, i think they're motivated to get ahold of the likes. the american media really needs to pay attention. you know, there have been very, very willing through anonymous sources, anonymous likes in the
11:08 am
administration to public information thatting has been very detrimental to the american presidency. but as you can see, there are other effects as they public this information. so, the press and it seems this single-minded pursuit of really trying to undermine president trump's presidency, also needs to be really careful because they're real world life and death consequences to likes like this. >> sandra: let's talk more about the actual investigation around the manchester bombing, we know this is extended into libya, he traveled there, the bomber traveled there prior to carrying out the attack. his family is from there. we know there is isis activity in afghanistan, iraq, syria, libya. there's hundreds of known terrorists on the ground there. how do we work with these countries, obviously a difficult situation with their government, to carry out these investigations? stephen? >> well, we have to kind of take a layered approach. some of these countries they're not all the same.
11:09 am
we can work with the host government but there are limits. some we can't work with the host government, like sir aia -- syria. you have to work with the locals. then under the trump priorities, we have to rely heavily on allies in the region, and we need more support from nato as well. occasionally we will have to take unilateral steps, the way the cruise missile strikes, hit the chemical weapons targets in syria. you have to take this multi facetted approach. but it won't work if our allies and security partners don't trust that we're in it to win and that we'll protect them as we go. likes potentially take their lives away if isis and supporters find out who is working with us. >> sandra: when it comes to protecting us a the home, rebecca, president trump and the travel ban, the fourth circuit batted it down, where does that go? >> well, again, there's many of these, several of these muslim majority countries are war-torn, essentially no government there, to speak of, to actually have really adequate credible
11:10 am
vetting. at least to the president's liking. the current law, immigration law that allows the president of the united states if he believes that it would help secure the united states to ban, have a travel ban, he is allowed to do that. what this fourth circuit has done is basically ignored what the law says and looked at what the president said when he was candidate, is punishing him for that. so it really isn't the way the law works, the court shouldn't behave that way, should look at the executive order, look at the words of it, and decide whether or not it's constitutional and legal. most lawyers would say that it is. so this is going to be, another of course hit for the trump administration. but it's really bad for the american people and bad for the president's efforts to make us more secure. >> sandra: you heard me lead in with the news in egypt of this mass gunman, stephen, shooting up a full bus of christians. we have learned, it was mostly made up of children. we know that that minority
11:11 am
coptic christians have been a target of isis. this is just an awful story that we're learning of. >> it's terrible tragedy. it's also one of the longer-term tragics that's been underreported in the war-torn middle east in the last decade-plus. massive desecration of historical christian sites in iraq, syria other areas. the coptics are a large christian population in the middle east and magnet for these attacks. the government is largely willing to help but there's a capacity problem. and clearly something where not enough has been done. terrible, terrible situation. in the decade where we were naulg all over ourselves to be nice to moderate muslims we need to take up this attack potential genocide against christians in the middle east. >> sandra: we have to leave it there, thank you. the pentagon announcing a potential solution to the problem of north can colorado rea's missile launches, why this intercept system would be a game

11:17 am
evolving in his opinion over the paris climate accord. after the uk police yesterday stopped sharing information and intelligence with their u.s. counterparts because of likes about the manchester bombing, theresa may, the uk prime minister, met with president trump at the nato summit. they also met again today. and then they decided to resume the intelligence sharing. here's what the prime minister said about that. >> yes, i did raise the issue of likes with information that is being shared by the police with the fbi, with president trump. he has made clear that that was unacceptable. the metropolitan police, as i understand it, have received assurances from the fbi and are now restarted the motion. >> recollection tillerson fell on his sword, said this won't happen again. to russia, gary cohen, chief
11:18 am
economic advisor said that the president was, quote, looking at russia sanctions. but in a preefing that ended a short time ago, indicated in clarifying that he isn't looking at relaxing sanctions. >> we aren't lowering the sanks on russia, if anything we would probably look to get tougher on russia. so the president wants to continue to keep the sanctions in place. >> now, then, third headline on the paris climate accord the president was expected only to make a decision about whether or not the united states would pull out of the accord before the g7 summit, he said about 10 days before the sum interest he was going to wait until afterwards. the administrator scott pruitt, steve ban on, both want to get out of paris. now according to gary cohen, the chief economic advisor, the president's thinking may be revolving, they said, quote, i think he's leaning to understanding the european condition. in the u.s. there's strong
11:19 am
opinions on both sides but knows that paris has important meaning to many of the european leaders. so he is listening to what they have to say. and will make a final decision when he gets back home. one other event that happened this morning, the leaders of the seven nations, and the eu council president, all signed a joint declaration on terrorism and extremism. this was to show solidarity with britain in the wake of the manchester attack and the g7 countries pledging to work harder to combat terrorism and the extremist ideology that fuels it. >> sandra: it's been quite a trip john rpts roberts. it's taken you many places, sir much thank you for bringing that beauty behind you. good to see you. mpbs thank you. >> sandra: the president's son-in-lawhner under fbi scrutiny. is that different than being under investigation? we'll break that down for you. plus new details about the shootout that killed the san bernardino attackers. what happened when police finally tracked down the couple? hours after the mass shooting.

fire on workplace holiday party1. 4 people were killed and 22 others were -- 14 people were killed and 22 hurt. we have more from the west coast bureau. william? >> the most interesting thing to me was how a single sliver of information potentially stopped an even larger attack. let me explain how. minutes after arriving at the scene the witnessed identified the shooter. from that they got credit records that showed he had rented a blacksively two days before. the rental company then gave the police his cell numbers which wereping pinged to get his location and police picked up the trail a few miles late where the patrol car lit them up to stoop it, when the back window of the s.u.v. explodes, he fires at cops with an assault rifle. >> sandra: how did the terrorists end up getting killed? >> faruk is wearing black and body armor, gets out of thesively, he's converted an assault rifle to a full auto but

it doesn't work. he use as nine mill meter pistol. two officers hit him but he doesn't go down because of the armor. then the san bernardino sergeant use as red dot laser sight on his ar-15 rifle and kills faruk with two rounds. his wife is firing short bursts with her rifle. the cops unload on the s.u.v. with rifles, shotguns, handguns until she, too, is dead. in all, 20 officers fire 440 times. though many of the rounds rick shea off the maismt and hit nearby homes. only one officer is wounded. faruk and malik fire 80 rounds, he is hit 25 times, she's hit 15. police find more than 1600 bullets inside the vehicle, most strapped to their bodies and preloaded magazines. imagine, if cops did not locate those credit records or they had been denied the cell phone ping they could have got loose with 1600 rounds that would have been

interactions with the president, claiming that robert mueller, the new special counsel thooshgs sign off on it first. now, word that the president's son-in-law is part of that probe. chief indulgence correspondent catherine herridge joins us live from washington. what have you learned? >> government source confirms the fbi counter intelligence investigation is scrutinizing meetings between the russian ambassador and members of the trump campaign and the transition team. jared kushner, the president's advisor and son-in-law met with the russian ambassador at least twice including last spring and one meeting reportedly included the head of a russian bank that was the subject of u.s. sanctions in 2014. a former justice department official under the bush administration said it is pretty routine for the fbi to cast a wide net, voting kushner volunteered to share information about his russian contacts with congress. >> simply say that he is the subject or with it of an investigation is not really saying anything. other than he was there. i mean he witnessed a car

11:33 am
likely to frustrate the congressional russia probes. >> i think the shock to the body, it's now considered a criminal investigation. and congress's ability to conduct investigations of all things russia has been severely limited. probably in an appropriate fashion. >> one. things that's not getting a lot of reporting but worth emphasizing is that this house government oversight committee also wants any memos that comey wrote going back to 2013. so trying to see if he had an even handed or fair approach to documenting his conversations about big events. not only with the trump administration, but also the obama administration and specifically his boss's meeting with bill clinton one week before hillary clinton's interview and classified e-mail case. >> sandra: catherine herridge, thank you. attorney for jared kushner said his client would be happy to speak with investigators but no one reached out.
11:34 am
what kind of legal implications could this have for kushner especially since he has business interests with russia. here to help sort out all much this is gregg jarrett, attorney and fox news anchor. i said you're going to walk us through this. people have questions about this. kushner is not a target. that's really important, why, what does that tell you? >> it tells me they don't have any evidence of a crime. otherwise they would have sent kushner and his laura target letter. that's the rule of the department of justice and fbi. it's not a crime to have a conversation with a russian ambassador. what do you think the russian ambassador is doing in washington? he's supposed to have conversations and try to influence the u.s. government. our ambassador tries to influence the russian government. kushner also met with a banker in mass co-the bank the subject of sanctions. let's say for example, kushner said, look. trump, the incoming president, wants to have a reset with russia and we may reexamine the
11:35 am
sanctions imposed by president obama. that's not a crime. he can do that. he can say that. >> sandra: very important to make that distinction. what about the logan act that points private citizens from interviewing in diplomatic disputes with foreign governments. >> doesn't apply, passed in 1799, and nobody has been prosecuted, largely because it's a blatant affront to the first amendment. moreover, kushner and michael flynn for example in having conversations with kysliak aren't acting as private citizen as the law demands but rather official in the incoming administration. they should be having conversations with the russians and other foreign governments. president obama did the same thing. >> sandra: let me give you a couple of what-if scenarios. what if trump associates like jared kushner exchanged information during the campaign or actually did collaborate to have an impact on the u.s. election? >> it would be stupid, unwise,
11:36 am
politically poisonous but would not be a crime. collusion or collaboration with a foreign government in an american political campaign isn't a crime. there is not a single statute that criminalizes it. the only possible crime is tangential, aiding and abetting the hacking of the dnc and the hillary clinton campaign but that probably didn't happen. the trump campaign wasn't computer sophisticated enough to engage hacking anybody. and it would require an overt act. there's no evidence of that. >> sandra: all right, so we know that jared kushner has relations in real estate. as far as his business is concerned. what if he was seeking financing from the russian bank? >> well if i were in his position i probably would. i'd be seeking all sorts of partners, worldwide. deep pockets in russia, they're one of them. it's not a crime. it might pose a conflict of interest although kushner has resigned from his company, he's die vesting some if not all of
11:37 am
his assets, hasn't completed it yet. let's not forget that american businesses do a lot of business in russia. i looked it up. pfizer and mars building big factories in russia. boeing, mcdonald's, general motors, ford, starbucks, pepsi. they all have enormous business interests n. and partnerships with russia. so if you're in kushner's position, head of a real estate company, of course you're going to take advantage of that market. again, nothing wrong with that. >> sandra: while he's under investigation, is there any chance he will lose his security clearance? >> president trump is the ultimate decisionmaker on whether to yank somebody's security clearance. or to grant security clearance. it's totally up to him. i suspect he won't do it. and you know what, under the circumstances, no evidence of a crime here byr, why yampg his security clearance? >> sandra: gregg jarrett, thank

you. all right, republican greg gianforte winning a special election last night in montana. this after the race for the state's only congressional seat took a bizarre turn when gianforte attacked a news reporter. well he has since apologized. alishia is live in bozeman, montana with the latest. alishia? >> hi, sandra. representative-elect greg gianforte apologized to ben jacobs the reporter for "the guardian" as well as the fox news crew, we were in the room. after the incident at his campaign office in bozeman on wednesday. many in the media had not heard from gianforte, save for a statement put out shortly after it happened. but not long after, he was declared the winner in the special election, he took the stage to thank his supporters. but also apologize to voters. mpbs that's not the person that i am. >> that's not the person that i am and not the way i'll lead in this state. rest assured our work is just
11:39 am
beginning. but it does begin with me taking responsibility for my own actions. you deserve a congressman who stays out of the limelight and just gets the job done. >> on the eve of the special election for montana's sole seat in the u.s. house, gianforte threw a reporter for the guardian, ben jacobs, to the ground at his bozeman campaign headquarters office. our fox crew, which was setting up for an interview, witnessed the whole thing. even with the incident, gianforte beat the democrat, rob quist, the montana folk singer who drew big democratic money from of the of stooid state and had the support of bernie sanders, galvanized his party base. in the end was not able to pull off an upset. gianforte told supporters last night he does not plan to live in washington, but commute back and forth from montana. but first, he will need to be intorn in. which according to our fox senior producer on capitol hill, will happen june 6 or 7.
11:40 am
and he also brings up there have been questions of whether or not gianforte will, in fact, be seated in congress. the u.s. house of representatives has the option to not seat some one if they choose to do so. that does not seem likely. what could happen is there is another office, the office of congressional ethics, not confused with the house ethics committee more formal. this other power has the ability to do an investigation. if anyone, not necessarily a member of congress, files a complete against a member of congress. >> sandra: got it, all right, everybody has been watching that one, alishia, thank you. fox news alert a manhunt under way outside minneapolis for a prisoner who hijacked a van full of other inmates and e skachd. authorities -- escaped. 10 prisoners got out of -- got away in all of this. only one remains on the loose. james douglas mitchell, is his name. officials say mitchell was last seen wearing standard prison clothing, blue button-down shirt and jeans.
