riot outside police headquarters. >> some coward shot police officers and -- >> they are expected to be okay. >> hopefully the mayhem gets under control for tonight. "fox and friends first" starts right now. >> it is 5 am in the east on tuesday june 2nd, 2020, welcome to "fox and friends" and we start with a fox news alert. another night of writing including across the country, police are under attack. in las vegas as riots rage, one police officer has been shot. it is breaking right now, we do not know how they officer is doing or his condition. >> is looters rage stores and light fires four cops were shot. the police chief choking back tears. >> some coward fired shots at

offices and we have four in the hospital and thank god now lives. >> thank god they are alive pieces. and nypd sergeant run over by speeding suv, the whole thing caught on camera, stop the video right before he is hit. the moment of impact so hard to watch we just can't show you. he is in serious condition. mike: not far from there another new york city police department officer beaten, cameras role as punches fly. so that is what we are up against today. officers under attack coast-to-coast. i read a moment ago that apparently a couple officers were shot in the last hour or two down in richmond, virginia. more on that in a moment. as you look at images from the streets of new york city let's

go to aishah hasnie live in midtown whereafter a seventh night, the violence and rioting and looting continues. >> reporter: good morning. that is right. midtown manhattan has been hit by looters. there are stores that have been ransacked. i'm standing in front of a store, you can see behind me they tried to put a barrier up but the looters got through the glass and got in and stole a bunch of stuff. you see that all over the place, lipstick and makeup products all over the place and you see that all across midtown. it was a violent night, talking about those police officers, dramatic video showing a sergeant struck by a black sedan, a possible break in, there was a break in their as

well, he's they killion stable condition, the people in the car got away. another officer beat up on the street in plainview, hard to watch that as well. in buffalo one suspect is in custody after a police officer and state trooper were hit by a car. they are in stable condition. back here in new york city looters smashing their way through luxury stores in manhattan including the macy's flagship store in midtown. you will remember this store from all the famous holiday movies. it was smashed up and ransacked. all of this happened before new york city's curfew went into effect 11:00, leaders trying to send a strong message to those looters who are inciting violence and includes one of new york's top cops, chief terrence monahan on video dealing with protesters in solidarity.

listen to what he said about these violent looters. >> 5 days of war needs to end. it has to end. when the sun goes down, the protesters go home. leave it to those who want to cause damage and we will get rid of them, we will get rid of those who ruin your neighborhoods. >> reporter: there have been dozens of arrests, this is part of a bottle left here, the brown liquor on the grounds. this is not a protest, this is a party for them. >> reporter: a lot of this happened after the curfew was in effect, you are in the soho area where the looting was taking

place, it was a places, not just in the soho area. >> reporter: i'm in midtown manhattan where the macy's flagship store is. there are stores all over the place, madison avenue got hit. they are picking and choosing different parts. not a lot left behind their. in midtown, every one is wonder what is next. i want to deck out one more thing that is heartbreaking for me to see. i've seen essential workers walk past me. people we have been clapping for every night, saving us from covid-19 at as they go to work, they wake up before the sun rises and they have to see things like this as they walk into the hospitals and try to protect them.

ainsley: the curfew last night was 11:00. if they want people off the streets they would have to do it much earlier and they realize too late that was wrong so tonight will be at 8:00 but clearly that will lead to the frustration of the police officers that the mayor and governor says it is okay to stay on the street until 11:00 which is closing time for a lot of places. >> reporter: think about this. we are talking about people involved in illegal activity, they are ruining businesses, breaking through the glass, stealing merchandise. hard to imagine they care, if this is what they want to do every single night they will find a way to do it. steve: i was reading about the rolex store, looters stole

watches just from that one store loan, smoke is billowing over washington as police and military crackdown on new protests on the nation's capital, griff jenkins continues coverage live in dc. >> not quite the scene in new york what more protests and arrests after a curfew, we saw law enforcement footprint increased heavily here. we saw a site we normally don't, a military helicopter flying low tracking of the protesters movement part of the president's vowed to crack down on the mayhem. >> i am dispatching thousands and thousands of heavily armed soldiers, military personnel and law enforcement officers to stop the rioting, looting, vandalism, ourselves and the wanton destruction of property. >> law enforcement deployed to

try and stop businesses and government buildings, writing and looting is protesters swarm on the national mall. in lafayette park, protest action, the president vowing to send in the military if they don't do more to, quote, dominate the street. the president decided to walk from the white house to where we are here to st. john's historic church, also some comments, many thought it was good. the dc bishop here saying it wasn't what she wanted to see. let me show you around st. john's church, heavy police presence, the secret service blocked it down, you see more

media. a quieter night but you will see what tonight brings. ainsley: you are right next to st. john's and were talking about it, the president wanted to symbolically walk across lafayette square and walk over to that church, the parish house basement was torched a couple nights before but the president is taking heat for the military and the military police, they use flash bang and rubber bullets and people there in washington, others say he's getting tough with these people but we should point out these were people who were simply protesting peacefully. >> reporter: here is the challenge and that is it is

people with the criminal intent and destructive intent to blend in with peaceful protesters so let me show you again here is the church, there is nothing but eighth street that separates lafayette park and beyond that, it is closed down so in that 100-200 yards, no choice perhaps but to clear that area of danger, if the president were going to make a speech in new york, you would have to clear a safe corridor his own. it is why we can't get in there as well. that is the job of the secret service. the criticism coming but i don't think you would see the same security precautions. they moved protesters north of here for a safe perimeter so the president cannot be harmed in any way.

we have seen service stations sunday and monday getting injured by being in an armed -- bricks and bottles and other debris so right now there's going to be a lot of criticism but also folks who thought that image of the president walking over here and standing sent a message that says we are back in control. it will be interesting to see other cities like new york where you are witches -- what we had last night will come tonight or in the coming days because it helped as i drove in, i saw a lot of shops through georgetown boarded up, not even graffiti on them let alone broken destructive scenes. steve: the president said i took an oath to uphold the rule of law for the country and those who were special after this. i was watching last night, they were saying i bet he will go to the church and sure enough he

did, he walked through the crowded hell of the bible and sent a strong message to the country. you are on the ground, you were in baltimore and in ferguson. compare this to those. >> reporter: it has gone to the next level. i will be fully honest, i spoke yesterday with two sources, organizers and open about their association with antifa and they said they felt this has been building for years. they felt their tactics of just blocking roads wasn't enough. it wasn't working. the message wasn't getting through and get the police brutality changes they seek was not happening so they felt the need to escalate it and in their words assist the black youth in leading and sending a message. i have observed things have been incredibly more violent and the shooting and rioting going to another level, putting a lot of

people in danger in these horrific stories unfolding this morning about police being shot, the image of the video in the bronx of that officer being beaten with debris in the streets. this is now at a level i have never seen since the antiwar movement started in the early 2000s under president bush. steve: griff jenkins, thank you. let's move to the twin cities, protests in minneapolis and in particular remaining mostly peaceful and of tonight's mandated curfew. it comes as george floyd's family calls for peace in the wake of his death. matt finn is live in minneapolis as people call for the head of the city's police union to resign. >> reporter: we have seen on the show the islands, looting in other cities across the country

right now. this has become much more call or at the site where george floyd died. there have been days of peaceful demonstration. the floyd family says they are peaceful and god-fearing and insist the violent riots will not bring back george floyd and have to end. >> what are you doing? you are doing nothing! that is not going to bring my brother back. >> reporter: also in a letter the police union president writes that the governor and mayor are shifting blame towards police calling it despicable behavior writing and part, quote, what has been very evident throughout this process is you have lacked support from the top, this terrorist movement

that is currently occurring was a longtime build of the day-to-day years starting with minimizing the size of our police force. minneapolis councilmember responded in a tweet writing, quote, inability to acknowledge painful impact of officers action exemplified the toxic culture of silence that glues this outdated policing system together. that is why we must step in to deconstruct our police department and build a new system with our chief. the head of the county medical examiner officially releases update autopsy report which now lists the manner of george floyd's death as homicide. it does conflict with george's family's personal autopsy which lists the manner of death as a sexy asian. back to you guys. ainsley: we will have, the show, thank you for missing him. floyd's brother led the vigil

yesterday, he had a pastor with him and a lot of people behind him. what was the reaction from the community after he gave that emotional speech. >> reporter: i saw the video, it was similar to what happened here right now. we were here throughout the morning yesterday and it was very peaceful and accepting reaction. what is encouraging to see at the site where george floyd died, very respectful and somber. this is perhaps the types of positive demonstrations people in this community are trying to project. people who really care about george floyd and memorializing him and advancing whatever it is they want to do. this is what they are trying to set. todd: behind you it sounds like we are still hearing protests.

is that what that is? >> reporter: not a protest with the demonstration, a memorial. they are saying george floyd's name. a very peaceful morning. steve: matt flynn on the street to minneapolis where the memorial continues, talking about police brutality. it is 5:17 in the east. we go back to world headquarters in new york city, jillian joins us on tuesday morning. jillian: we are following other headlines. overnight the department of justice pushing for michael flynn's case to be dismissed immediately urging the federal appeals court to order the judge overseeing the case sullivan to take action. he has rejected calls to drop it even allowing outside judges going in. sullivan calling the doj reversal unusual arguing it is a reason to question and wants to

consider west carefully before ruling on it. happening today primaries will be held in washington dc for the 2020 presidential race and congressional seat, joe biden the 2025 more delegates, he could secure the democratic presidential nomination after today's vote, 479 delegates are up for grabs today. hurling towards protesters on a minnesota bridge, you've seen this video, this may have been an accident, the driver was arrested is demonstrate around his big rig but fox news is told the driver did not intend to harm and mistakenly drove towards protesters thing the driver didn't break any barriers, immediately closed down the site of people and appeared shaken during his arrest. of virginia police chief breakdown after protesters set fire to a home with a child inside. >> officers were able to help those people out of the house.

you take a legitimate issue and hijack it for unknown reasons, that is unacceptable to me. >> reporter: the police chief saying rioters traveled from outside the city to break up peaceful protests. back to you. ainsley: donald trump blaming antifa for the 5 is across america aiming to designate them as a domestic terror group but what do we know about them. a former fbi agent breaks it down next.

this includes antifa and others who are leading instigators of this violence. steve: strong words from the president calling out antifa which he hopes to designate a domestic terror group. this as a the moment of homeland security intel memo from earlier in the week warned that, quote, suspected anarchistic extremists could infiltrate and exploit the protests seen nationwide. here to react, former fbi special agent with the joint terrorism task force chad jenkins, good morning to you. we have heard so much about antifa involvement, the president touched on it. why do we think they are involved? >> we are starting to see more and more violence taking place.

this conversation has gone towards antifa and the violence we are seeing is distracting from the real conversation of racial inequality that took place in the unjustified killing of george floyd and it is playing right to the fact of the antifa organization being able to use that incendiary topic to gaslight, their mission to so seeds of discourse within the united states and within our communities. steve: the way it looks to a lot of people there are three groups involved, there are the people who are protesting peacefully talking about police brutality, then the extremist antifa like tactics to break things and so discord and then the looters who in new york city they are saying potentially known gangs from the

five barroso are involved. the attorney general said a couple days ago the joint terrorism task force, 56 regional offices are going to be involved to figure this out. how would this work? >> on international terrorism that has worked domestically in the united states the joint terrorism task force from the domestic side and international side. they have been focused on the antifa for quite some time. it started in 2007 in oregon, they gained more notoriety, more fraction in the mainstream in 2017 in charlottesville, virginia protests and riots that took place and continue to gain leverage on the domestic terrorism front. the joint terrorism task force would be all hands on deck tracking not only this domestic

terrorism organization but others and use these explosive situations to exploit is further. steve: it appears the newest development is a number of instances across the country where now police officers are under attack and that is very disturbing. as george floyd's brother said in minnesota this is not going to bring his brother back. >> now, it is not. waking up this morning, getting up early and hearing all the new situations develop across the country, we are in an unprecedented time. i don't have the answers but if we don't come together and if we don't have those uncomfortable dialogues that need to take place about racial inequality in this country so we can be united on that front and teach our young ones the way in which they go we are continuing to see this

escalate and the fire is escalating, antifa to this point has no accounted for deaths they conducted during all their protests but now we are seeing the violence continuing to escalate. we've got to have those difficult conversations but we have to start on the leadership side to lead from the front on that and to talk about george floyd and that injustice and what we can do to make a difference now because we are at the point the whole nation, the whole world is looking and we have got to use this as a catalyst for good, not the continued evil that is continuing nightly. steve: last night was the seventh night. chad jenkins, thank you for joining us on this tuesday morning. meanwhile as we have been talking about all they and all night violence including taking over major cities.

has our society become desensitized to violence? david webb says the breakdown of family values could be part of the reason and he is coming up next. i am in so much debt. sixty-two thousand seven hundred and ten dollars and thirty-one cents. sofi allowed me to refinance all of my loans to one low interest rate and an affordable monthly payment. and i just feel like there's an end in sight now and that my debt doesn't define me anymore. ♪ sofi is helping me get my money right.

ainsley: tension simmering in los angeles after protesters stand off with the california

national guard, 2000 expected to hit the streets today. brian: the first troops standing at city hall with police who arrested thousand people and clashed with protesters in the street in nearby santa monica, california. police say 95% of those arrested for looting over the weekend came from outside the city. ainsley: are we becoming desensitized while this violence, to play a role here. >> you think fundamentally there's a breakdown from the 18-25 bracket in the country?

>> reporter: this is what we have seen over the years. we had a breakdown of family structure, the traditional plan, it is a mom and dad, saying these urban environments. this is a regrettable tool for the antifa like actors out there, professional anarchists, the left, breakdown of family values in the way our schools, and teaching children about society are not teaching that, that is one component and they are easily -- to be cannon fodder for what our professional operators which is what we see now, antifa has been out on the world stage for a long time.

we are seeing them go out across america. ainsley: how do we get back to where we were before or better than that in improvement? >> reporter: we need to take control of the family environment and community environment. we can no longer surrender to a system to raise our kids not just in school but in life and society. brothers, sisters, friends and family members, and let me make no bones about it. most of the country has a well set structure, generational handoff, the loud voices, left coast, right coast, wings of this country and urban environments are the ones, the

breakdown of values, and educate these kids directly, to take down the bad influences that are illegally will begin to turn this around. >> there are people who want racial equality and want to pick up the pace. and other things being organized from the outside, no one is targeting cops. >> i am with you and let me say something to those antifa types, leftists and anarchists who want to take down american culture, the anti-american left supported by many democrat politicians out there.

when you get past the police in your little fantasy you are going to get past the hundreds of millions of americans who exercise their right to protect their lives, their livelihoods, you are in deep trouble. we are not like other countries. we don't want to get out of that point. it is a harsh potential reality. >> thanks for being with us. still ahead new autopsy results released in the death of george floyd. what does this mean for the investigation? one of the doctors hired by the family has the details of his findings after this break. i just love hitting the open road and telling people

steve: george floyd's brother speaking out against the violent protests that have broken up nationwide. >> reporter: people are gathering at a memorial where floyd died. they protests are peaceful while the city enforced a curfew. we did see just 40 minutes ago matt finn there, where people continue to come the more rate the life. george's brother terrence got to minneapolis yesterday and went to the location where his brother died. it is a deeply religious family so the first thing he did was melt down at that spot. he cried and talked a lot about his brother and what is going on since he died. ainsley: a lot of articles have

been passed around, the faith, his brother george did believe in god. there are pictures of him in the internet, they did lead a prayer vigil yesterday, his brother terrence said keep my brother's name alive and chance in the crowd to justice from the left. talking about peaceful protests, that is our god-given right. i read a story yesterday there was a lady praying in michigan that no one would get hurt and the police officer walked up to her, at my officers to your prayer list. >> reporter: it was abundantly clear at the end of this that if you are rioting you are not

doing it for his brother. that is why i thought terrence floyd was the mvp yesterday and in minneapolis they seem to have gotten the message. >> if i'm not over here blowing up stuff. if i am not over here messing up my community, you are doing nothing. that is not going to being my brother back at all. every case of police brutality, the same thing has been happening, let's look at this another way. steve: what is happening in new york last night and in so many cities, curfews and 39 separate states were taking place, your

looting stores, don't pretend you are doing every a lot of claws, you're doing it to make america better, you're doing it, you are not. imagine the responsibility arriving when he said can't we all get along, the responsibility he feels, the country seems to becoming a part in many cases, let's make this clear, this is not for my brother, this is for you guys. what you are doing is on you. don't act like you are doing it for a cause that is just when you want to make history to make a point. all you're doing is robbing people. >> there are three different groups. terrence supports the group that is protesting police brutality. as he made it clear these other people, people are breaking

stuff and stealing things, muddling the message, the whole idea right now with this particular movement is to get the ball rolling to affect change. ainsley: i appreciated he said i understand you are upset, we are all upset, you watched that video of how his brother was killed and no one condones that in this police officer is charged for that crime. i pray our country can come together, those are businesses and our businesses are hurt. big apple boarded-up just as if it was preparing to reopen. steve: unbelievable series of events. four police officers shot in st. louis, light fires, clash with police, details are coming straight ahead. yes, you are. i'm gonna get this place all clean.

i'll give you a hand. and i'm gonna put lisa on crutches! wait, what? said she's gonna need crutches. she fell pretty hard. you might want to clean that up, girl. excuse us. when owning a small business gets real, progressive helps protect what you built with customizable coverage. -and i'm gonna -- -eh, eh, eh. -donny, no. -oh.

>> what you are going to hear from these renowned path all adjusts is essentially george died because he needed a breath a.

steve: an independent autopsy indicating george floyd died of association to his back and neck. this is the county medical examiner says floyd's death was a homicide. ainsley: doctor michael baden was hired by floyd's family to conduct this review. he joins us by phone. good morning. i watched the press conference in the church, tell us about your findings is why you don't have any doubt he died right there on scene. >> doing the autopsy again showed he didn't have any significant medical problems, the isn't that he had brain

hemorrhage or heart attack, the video is the most important thing as it was with eric garner. eric garner and george floyd, the pressure on the neck prevented him from breathing and prevented oxygen from going to the brain, the blood vessels in the neck and the pressure on the back prevents the diaphragms from going up and down so he can't inhale and exhale. every time we inhale and exhale means our diaphragms are going up and down but if there is too much pressure on the back, delivering the internal abdominal organs below the diaphragm that can't move. garner and floyd said they

couldn't breathe because they couldn't inhale. a mistake among police but if somebody says i can't breathe, they are breathing, i am talking to you right now is going on in run on sentences not breathing even though i am talking. the problem both of them called out i can't breathe and the officers, and enough oxygen to get to the brain, lost consciousness and died. ainsley: i'm walking -- watching the new york times report. was he really drunk and was there an underlying heart condition? did any of those factors come up? >> yes, the two factors that came up as in most cases when somebody dies of homicide we don't know the toxicology.

we didn't have privileged to know what he was on but it appeared from the way he was behaving and described, may have been alcohol or other drugs at the time he had an encounter with the police but the drugs don't affect the cause of death. it may account for why he behaved the way he does. as you know if you have a shooting today somebody is arrested, the next day there is a net topsy, not waiting for the laboratory results because the laboratory results are helpful in understanding of the circumstances but in this case we are not giving the cause of death. ainsley: your findings are different from the autopsy results a couple days ago, why did the family want to hire you?

>> the family wanted to hire because they resulted -- something other than they thought other than what we saw on the video. what we saw on the video, compression of the neck primarily and he died from it, the initial report indicated a lot of underlying conditions. that is one reason. the other reason oftentimes we are invited to do second autopsies it may take weeks and weeks for all the laboratory evidence when the report is released, when cause of death is now 99%, as we see with the naked eye tells us almost always what the cause of death and then

you get other details, drugs and amount of drugs which are of interest but not a specific cause of death. the medical examiner came out with another press release after we were finished. the way he was restrained that is the issue here, the restraint, what has to happen is police officers don't know and the public doesn't know compression of the back like when you are putting handcuffs on - ainsley: we have to end it there. steve: we have judge andrew napolitano.

. .

ainsley: we start with a fox news alert. across the country, riots intensifying over the death of george floyd as police officers from coast to coast are coming under attack. in las vegas, one officer was shot outside of a casino after protests in that city. his condition is unknown at this hour. no word on any arrests. then this st. louis looters raiding stores, lighting fires. four cops shot there all four of them are expected to be okay, brian. brian: yup, in new york city, wow, two attacks caught on camera. a sergeant run over by a speeding suv. that happened in the bronx. also in the bronx another officer attacked by several people.
