>> we begin with breaking news, the stolen plane in mississippi now on the ground and the rogue pilot taken into custody after threatening to crash into a walmart near tupelo. welcome to fox news live. i'm griff jenkins. >> i'm alicia acuna, the plane had been circling for hours after the suspect stole it this morning. charles watson is live with the latest on this developing story, charles. >> hey, good afternoon, guys, that plane did land, we're told by police it landed in

mississippi, ashland to be more specific near highway 4. we're told that the plane did get down. we had been trying to figure out the condition of the suspect after he was taken into police custody. we have been working the phones and we know there's only one hospital there, the tippa county hospital there. we've been working phones to see if he's been there and folks have not been able to give an update specifically, but, guys, an end to a five-plus hour ordeal that started around 5:00 central time. folks saw this low flying plane circling a walmart and they thought something was strange about this, so they decided to report this to police, a short time later, this suspect reportedly got in contact with police and started demanding things. what he was demanding is

unclear at this hour, but told police he would intentionally crash that small aircraft into a walmart. after circling the walmart for some time, he apparently moved northeast up into an area, blue springs, mississippi, where he apparently circled a toyota manufacturing plant for some time. he was up there in the air flying erratically and very low for some time. you look on social media and you see a ton of videos, folks who live in the community and people who were able to snap pictures and videos of the plane flying low to the ground. out of abundance of precaution, that walmart that was mentioned, and apparently other neighborhoods in the tupelo area were evacuated. you know, just in case this guy decided to crash the plane, that there weren't innocent bystanders in the area that would possibly get hurt. we're hearing that this man was apparently a worker at the tupelo regional airport and

apparently stole this plane. now, what his issue was with walmart or toyota or why he stole this plane is still something that a lot of people, you know, want answers to. a lot of questions out there. we're hoping to get an update from police a short time from now, but, again, this five-our ordeal. this low-flying plane has ended. the suspect landing the plane in a field and it looks like a farm of some sort, a soy bean field in ashland, mississippi, northeast mississippi ended peacefully. the suspect is in custody, guys. griff: let me just follow-up on that a little bit. moments ago i got off the phone with the benton county sheriff's office, sheriff robby goolsbee and that the sheriff is the one that took him into custody and not to confuse our viewers. ashland is in benton county

headed west on highway 4 where that landed and that highway 4 goes into a dense national forest. holly springs national forest. do we know anything about where he landed, was it in the forest or closer to ashland on the east side? >> griff, i couldn't hear your question clearly. i did hear do we know anything about the area. it was near highway 4, appears to be a rural area from what we can see, images posted to social media, it looks as if it was some sort of farm of some sort. a soybean-filled of some sort. the plane landed looked like upright. not sure if there was any crash of any kind. we could only see one side of the plane. it plane looked to be in good condition. the suspect was then taken into custody from there and apparently taken to an area

hospital for treatment. now, again, we don't know the condition of the suspect, if he was injured at all. we've been putting calls out to the county hospital to see the suspect was taken there and what the extent of his injuries, if there are any, are. but again, we haven't been able to get the details as yet. we're working the phones to see if we can get more details. a developing story, griff. to see if we get them shortly. >> charles watson, we'll check with you as it develops. thank you, charles. for more on this, an aviation lawyer and fox rothchild partner. what can you tell us as the story develops at that stands out to you? >> well, i think, as a number of your reporters and guests have commented, it appears that the pilot, whoever was controlling the airplane, had some flying experience.

while certainly the ground traffic that we saw is erratic, it seems that he controlled the airplane reasonably well in terms of keeping the wings level. the turns were kind of steep. he certainly maintained control above the ground until he either ran out of fuel or decided to put it down. i've seen some media reports, some social media reports he may have been a student pilot, may have m a student pilot certificate as far back as from 2013. the other thing that's noteworthy is the question of how did he get access to the plane. if he's an employee of the airport, as has been reported, he would have the appropriate security clearances, likely, to be out on the ramp and in the hangars and have access to the aircraft. so, i think it's certainly an unfortunate situation, but thank heavens it could have been a tragedy. >> mark, this is alicia acuna.

a couple of questions for you. first one, we know that this suspect is in custody from our own reporting from the team on the ground in mississippi. what do you believe-- what kind of charges could this suspect be facing at this point? >> i think that that's probably one of the next immediate subjects to be addressed. certainly shall the local sheriff and the local police will investigate, you have theft, essentially, and reckless conduct and endangering people on the ground. i'm sure the aircraft controllers cleared all the air space, so, no other aircraft were in the area once they were aware of what was occurring. so you're certainly going to have criminal prosecutions with respect to all of those issues. i don't know whether the n.t.s.b., national transportation safety board, since we don't have an accident or an incident as they might define it would be involved.

certainly the f.a.a. is going to be involved in terms of how the airplane was taken and security performance. we've also heard and i think yourselves and your reporters have commented, harkening back to 2011 and the tragic events of that date and up in seattle, an airline employees took an airplane and ultimately crashed it. when you think about an airplane just flying around up there in a sense waiting to run out of fuel, you can think about the payne stewart accident. there were issues of asphyxiation and everybody in the aircraft being disabled and the aircraft ran out of fuel and crashed in a field not unlike what we saw. >> and you mentioned the f.a.a. clearly now will look into this and from what we are gathering, that this individual was an employee at the tupelo airport and took this local doctor, it

appears, claimed, according to reporting, and took off. what specifically is the f.a.a.'s laws say about an action like this which did, fortunately as you point out, result in no injuries that we're aware of? >> i think we've all walked through the airport, we've all been at airports and we see the flight crews wearing the badges around their neck, and they get air side access. we as passengers are limited to land site access and we don't have the security clearances required either by the airport, by the tsa, by the f.a.a. i think one of the things going to be looked at by the feds, if you will, whether it's tsa or f.a.a. who this individual was, what the experiences were, i'm sure the airport is going to look at it, whether or not he should have appropriately had the clearances to be on the air

side, on the ramp, in the ang gars, so forth. there are clearly trust issues and security issues, but at the same time, everybody's background that gets these clearances has been checked. otherwise they're not going to get the clearance and not going to be out on the ramp. so i think we'll see a real focus. i have no doubt at all that that focus has already started at the f.a.a., tsa, the airport, so forth. griff: clark, quick question here, whether it matters, whether or not this person was brought down because of a lack of fuel or if this was a negotiated landing, crash landing? because from what we understand, the suspect was in contact with authorities on the ground. does it make a difference when you're talking about a prosecution here and the level of charges that could be brought? >> i think it's unlikely if he

fortuitously, if you will, ran out of fuel or exercised common sense. and decided to try to land the airplane. what's remarkable, if the reports i read through to be accurate, and you've had some of your other guests talk about that, the king air aircraft is a high performance twin air aircraft, not only used by private aviation, corporate aviation, it's used by a number of military services in modified versions by the u.s. government. it's a sophisticated airplane and it's pretty remarkable and i'll be interested. i think a lot of people will be interested to hear what kind of aviation background he had. the videos we're now looking at on the screen, while certainly he's doing all sorts of circles and turns, and some of them are pretty steep, it appears that he's maintaining actual control of the airplane. the fact of whether he decided to put the airplane down in the field, which i think maybe he

made a rational choice, i'll see a field there and i'll put it down or i'll glide into the field. i think it's remarkable, basically he walked away from this. so it will be interesting to see what i'm told over the next few days. griff: certainly developing this story right now. mark thank you for joining us, if you can stand by for a moment. >> thanks, griff. we're going to continue with the events of the coverage in mississippi. alan diehl, research psychologist joins us, and thank you very much. and it's terrifying thinking about folks on the ground watching this plane at such a low altitude flying around somewhat erratically not knowing exactly what's happening. where does the investigation begin now? >> well, clearly, the local authorities, the law enforcement authorities have him in custody. i would imagine the f.a.a. is

already en route to interview him once-- presumably he's in a hospital situation. once the doctors clear the f. f.a.a., i'm sure they'll be asking him lot of questions and already getting his training records. if reports that he was a student pilot, they're getting ready to talk to his instructors and co-workers, et cetera. griff: and allen, does the n.t.s.b. have any involvement here? >> normally they wouldn't. trying to think of my days at n.t.s.b., where we've looked at incidents. there have been suicide and when that occurs, a crash or a serious incident, the n.t.s.b. would get involved. normally, we don't know if the aircraft was damaged. there may not technically be an accident or an incident, but in their definition. i think this is primarily going to be a law enforcement, an f.a.a. inquiry, but things can

change. aishah: . >> and dr. diehl, from your research analyst hat on, we understand that there were authorities on the ground in contact with the person flying this plane. this went on for hours. walk us through what that kind of conversation has to entail? how does that go? >> well, there are trained clinical psychologists that work for the f.a.a. that can do hostage negotiations. this is not a hostage negotiation situation, but people that are trained to deal with suicidal individuals. so, i don't know that the people that we're talking to him had that training. they may not have had time to get in place, but they do have a group for hijacking. i know in the f.a.a., there's a-- my boss was on call for hijacking so that does happen occasionally, and they do have individuals that can talk to

people that are either hijacking an aircraft or holding hostages. of course, the fbi also has a similar group, a much larger group of people that are used to doing s.w.a.t. situations. in a way, this is an aerial s.w.a.t. situation and i thought mark did a good job of summarizing it. awful lot like if reports of true he was an employee of the aircraft. we still don't know what the f.a.a. licensee had. and remember the badge carrier that took an airport in seattle, and a student that took an airplane a couple of decades ago. so these things have happened. griff: and alan, it's fascinating. you're sort of talking about what this individual, you know, we know from reports that he-- shortly after takeoff around 5

a.m. local he was immediately calling the tupelo police department threatening to crash into this walmart and fortunately moved north and east and appears where he was and now safely taken into custody. my question for someone who would understand is, how difficult was this for this individual to pull this off with this type of aircraft? >> well, as mark said, you know, if he is an employee of the company on the ground. they're called fixed based operators, he probably had access to the keys to that aircraft. i to in the military flying clubs where i was a message, we not only took the keys out of the aircraft, post-9/11, we literally locked the keys into the office. you had to have a key to get into the compartment to get the key to airplane. and it's what most ar--

aircraft have to have keys just like automobiles, if you've got the key, you've got control. >> and as jon scott, one of our anchors mentioned, also a pilot, it's like a teenager looking for a joy ride looking to see where the keys are was the point that he made and that could come into the investigation here. c alan diehl formerly of the n.t.s.b. and f.a.a. we thank you, griff. griff: all right. as we follow this developing story and bring you more news. president biden facing heavy cite criticism after a fiery speech in pennsylvania. a live report from the white house coming up. i brought in ensure max protein with 30 grams of protein. those who tried me felt more energy in just two weeks.

>> nasa has announced it will once again delay the launch of the uncrewed artemis rocket, reportedly due to a hydrogen leak. president joe biden is staying at camp david this weekend and faces the august jobs report and several days of criticism following his speech about the battle for the nation's soul.

lucas tomlinson is at the white house with the latest. >> that's right, president biden appearing upbeat talking about the new jobs report and optimistic about the future. >> the bottom line is jobs are up, wages are up, people are back to work and we're seeing some signs that inflation maybe, maybe, not going to overpromise you, may be beginning to ease. >> the month over month comparison tells a different story, however. according to the august jobs report 315,000 new jobs are added 40% decrease to a half million added in july. unemployment ticked up 3.7% from 3.5% in july and here is where the new jobs are coming from, professional services trade and leisure and hospitality as more americans, retail, education, more children back to in-person learning. good news for the white house, labor participation force rate, number of people working or looking for work edged up from

61%, up to 62% in august. they are not celebrating. hardworking americans are living paycheck to paycheck, higher taxes and lower wages and families will continue to struggle to afford anything, gas to groceries, and the president said that extremism threatens our democracy. our peter doocy. >> and do you consider trump followers, a threat to the country? >> come on, look, guys, you keep trying to make that case. i don't consider any trump supporter a threat to the country. >> the price of gasoline has fallen from the record high back in june, but still remains over 60% higher than when president biden was sworn on the steps of the u.s. capitol.

>> lucas tomlinson, good to see you. >> for more on this, we're joined by republican congressman from texas, a member of the house financial services committee, lance, thank you for taking time on saturday. i want to get to that fiery speech that president biden gave on thursday, but first, your reaction to these jobs numbers and as you heard from lucas' great reporting the president saying that maybe inflation is going down. >> well, first of all, these jobs numbers are totally outweighed by the cost of living increases that americans are facing each and every day and a lot of these jobs numbers are second jobs. because many of my constituents and people across the united states, are having to get second jobs. come out of retirement, and start back to work, because they cannot afford to live. they can't afford the gas prices. they can't afford food costs or everyday electricity costs so i think these numbers are a bit

deceiving. as to president biden's comment that inflation may be turning around, i'm probably not going to take his word for it. >> you're on the house financial services committee. when we looked the at chart we just showed our viewers, many may be confused we added over 300,000 jobs, but yet, unemployment went up .2% from july. what do you make of that? >> you know, these numbers that are coming out of our federal government, i don't really trust many of them and i know that this administration will sp spin whatever comes out, but again, many are second jobs, they're underreporting the impact on inflation and refuse to go mention it in the speech we're about to talk about it, i believe. this administration refuse toss recognize that we're in a perilous time and the american people's pocket books are not what they were when president trump left office and i believe that they've frustrated and the other side will pay a price at the polls come december. griff: let's get to that fiery

speech. a great segue. your reaction, on inauguration day and the campaign trail, candidate biden, and newly sworn in president biden and was talking unity, and didn't want to pit red and blue states and this is contrast to those original pledges. >> yes, sir. the biden administration, again, they're distracting from their horrible policies, what we saw was unprecedented, we saw a president that united republicans with trump and do you remember the days of the white house, i wish he would love on on forget about hillary clinton, why does he keep talking about hillary clinton. we're seeing this now with president biden, he can't seem to move past trump. he is very much worried, afraid, scared, i don't know the word about paranoid, perhaps, about donald trump running for office again and

weaponized the justice department against our former president and at this point in time i think he's lost so much credibility the american people are ready to move forward. seeing this speech and criticizing members of the republican party for wanting to make american great again. griff: you're raising a point, you're talking that president biden keeps going back to talking about his predecessor donald trump. is it your opinion then that president biden and democrats decided to make donald trump their part of their campaign as a referendum on donald trump in the midterms, even though former president trump is not on the ballot? >> i think they'd like that, we've seen since donald trump left office, this obsession with him on the other side by democrats. liz cheney i classify as a democrat, it's her mission to prevent donald trump from being in the white house and this obsession lives on through this congress and the other side welcomes a discussion about donald trump because anytime

we're talking about donald trump, we're not talking about inflation, we're not talking about this horrible summer where people could not afford summer vacation and yes, the gas prices are down now it's because no one bought gas to travel as they were accustomed to. i think we're distracting from the high levels of crime in the urban areas. the democrat i works with and across the nation want to do anything, but talk about the failed record, the open border that's ruining our nation. if they can talk about donald trump, this is what they pre rec receive-- perceive to be a win for them. griff: congressman, thank you for taking time. alicia: griff, on the other side of the aisle we're joined by democratic congresswoman from michigan and member of the house energy and committee debbie dingell and the house natural resources committee. congresswoman, thank you for being here. i want to get back to the job numbers and give awe opportunity to respond to what

your colleague from the other side of the aisle said about the 315,000 jobs added he said the administration and democrats are failing to mention in speeches and statements regarding these job numbers that a lot of these are second jobs because people simply can't afford to live, your response? >> well, i don't have the exact breakdown. i do know that president biden's created 10 million jobs since he got into office which is the highest number of any presidency and quite frankly, before he was elected i was fighting for many workers who were already working two jobs, say in the care industry, where they were living below the poverty line with two jobs. i think, look, we've got to all work together. people like me don't run away from the issues that inflation has been real. price of gasoline has been real, it's gone down for 81 more days, it's not low enough. there have been a lot of extenuating factors. but i do think that president biden's trying very hard to bring this country together.

it was unusual for him to give the kind of speech that he did on thursday night and i don't believe that all -- that he is not taking a paintbrush and tarring all republicans. i work very hard with people across the aisle to try. i think the american people want to find us work together and find solutions to problems, which by the way, in the congress we have passed a lot of legislation in the last few months, which is lowering the cost of prescription drugs, which is the price of gasoline is coming down and yet, also, investing and making sure we're addressing environmental issue and the infrastructure bill not only fixing roads and bridges, but taking lead out of water pipes, is addressing problems and i think there's been one hell of a lot of work done in washington d.c. alicia: and congresswoman since you brought it up. the speech from thursday, you know, we're in labor day weekend, sort of the unofficial launch for the big push to the midterms, and just days before this big weekend the president did give this speech in which

critics have called it. in other words, let's take a listen. >> but there's no question that the republican party today is dominated, driven intimidated by donald trump and the maga republicans. and that is a threat to this cou country. these are hard things, but i'm an american president, not a president of red america or blue america. alicia: so, among some of the criticisms here, congresswoman, in that statement he's saying two separate things, i'm not here to represent one side or the other, but then he takes one side and villainizes it. just, a question for you, if there's someone sitting in carthage, missouri, they volted for the president and have a maga hat. what are they to take other than dismissed by the

president? >> i hope they don't take the president dismissing. and i've been talking about this before he did. i think there are people that are trying to divide us by fear and hatred. i say this to people clearly. on january 6th there were some people came to the capitol prepared to kill people and many came because they were expressing, not all republicans came with that in mind. but the fact. matter is that there are people didn't belong at the capitol with assault weapons and michigan had a dry run when there were people at our state capitol with assault weapons and when i said on another cable station, no, i don't think that people belong outside of the capitol with assault weapons. men were outside of my house with assault weapons. i think we need to take a strong look at the vitriol and

hate down there and dial it down and treat everybody with respect and i say that to everybody in every party and i think that was part of the message that president biden was trying to deliver. alicia: congresswoman debbie dingell, thank you for your time today. >> thank you. alicia: white house press secretary insisting that president biden is securing the border against pffentanyl despie seizing more last week. more on that after the break. try boost® high protein with 20 grams of protein for muscle health. versus 16 grams in ensure high protein. boost® high protein also has key nutrients for immune support. boost® high protein. pain hits fast. so get relief fast. only tylenol rapid release gels have laser drilled holes. they release medicine fast for fast pain relief. and now get relief without a pill with tylenol dissolve packs. relief without the water. it's time for the biggest sale of the year, on the sleep number 360 smart bed. why choose proven quality sleep from sleep number?

according to the investigation. the dark-colored terrain. it was during a routine run near the university of memphis. a bright pink top and purple shorts. surveillance showed them she was approached by an unknown suspect and after a brief struggle was forced into the s.u.v. her phone and water bottle was found by the scene, a home belonging to the university. >> and we don't know what's going on. everybody is desperately looking for her. >> eliza fletcher is a pre-k teacher and mom to two teacher. a report that her grandfather is the founder of the multi-billion dollar hardware distribution company and yesterday did carry out a search at the fletcher's

memphis home and a white vehicle was towed and items carried out. no arrests have been made yet and they're searching and following all leads. alicia. alicia: we'll continue to follow this. alexandria hoff, thank you. >> turning now to the crisis at our southern border, joining us, former acting director of ice, tom homan to weigh in. tom, we saw this week, 53 migrants swept away in the rio grande currents. the river was particularly dangerous this week after rainfalls. 37 were arrested. our latest numbers show they recovered nine bodies with another seven unaccounted for really speaks to the dangers that these migrants are making in this trek. i want to get you to weigh in on that. >> well, you and i have talked about it for months.

when you've got an administration that comes up and they open the border up, no consequence, no deterrents to come this this country. they know they're not going to be detained and ice won't look for them if they're order today be removed. the most vulnerable people in the world are putting themselves in the hands of criminal cartels to this country. since joe biden started, 1,300 migrants have died on u.s. soil. we've never seen numbers like this in my career and the white house fails to address it. over 100,000 americans dying from fentanyl overdoses since he's become president so i'm arguing that he can get up there all he wants, our policies are much more humane than trump's policies. they're not, you're killing a record number of migrants and women and children, sex trafficking across the country. and 57% of women raped by the

car cartels. you can say that tom homan is this or that. under president trump, immigration was low. and how many women didn't get sexually assaulted and how many americans didn't die of drug overdoses when we had the border locked down. this president's policies are inhumane. griff: you mentioned fentanyl. the crisis was certainly not at this level under the trump administration. in fact, we'll show the percentage, you can see on your screen, nearly 67% of all drug deaths from february last year to february of this year, caused by this fentanyl, we just had four million pills apprehended this past week. when asked about this crisis at the white house, tom, white house spokeswoman careen a jean

pierre said this. >> the fact that we're securing report levels of funding from dhs to stop illicit drugs from entering the country. the fact that it's not just drug traffickers that we're dealing as well we're stopping financiers. griff: tom, your reaction. she says they're securing the border against deadly fentanyl. >> again, these' part of the administration, who hasn't been transparent to the american people. look, she's not very good at her job and not getting better, but the american people can clearly see what's going on. coincidence, the same year that there is record illegal immigration and pulled off the line, and record fentanyl smuggling killed over 100,000 of americans. when 70% of the border agents aren't on the line they'll move it across the border. and border control seized a lot when you've got 70% of agents off the line more coming across

that's not caught. again, when you secure the border and shut it down like the trump administration did, the drugs can't come in this country as easily as it's coming in now. so, if the president, the secretary want to seriously address the fentanyl problem, first thing they need to do is secure the border. second thing they need to do, is deal with china, who is sending all the precursors to mexico so the cartels can create the fentanyl and smuggle it into the united states. griff: tom, in the last 30 seconds or so that we have. regardless of what anyone thinks about the job that kaka karine jean pierre is doing, and the job they're doing against the fennel fentanyl crisis, is she doing her job. >> when she gets up there, the

border is secure, and we have apprehensions, nearly a million got aways, looking at five million illegal crossings on the border since becoming president and to sit up there and say the border is secure is incompetent. either these' incompetent or lying, but the spokesman for the white house, their number one responsibility is tell the american people the truth about what's going on in this nation. griff: former ice director, tom homan, new for joining us on a saturday. have a great labor day weekend. >> you, too, griff. alicia: mississippi sixth day without clean tap water after the water plant failed. we'll have the latest from the ground on the other side of the break.
