and i meant it then and mean it now our nation is forever in debt of the loved ones and the sacrifice they made on behalf of their fellow citizens. the terrible day when the bullets started flying detective sulan had only been with the precinct for two months. but he jumped into action. he showed shielded the mother from gunfire and drew his gun. a dark day for the city of new york could have been even more tragic, a much higher body count if it weren't for detective sulan. i met the detective shortly after that and i knew his relatives would be around and he relives that day often. the two detectives are never far from his mind. the entire nation is grateful for the courage under fire that

he demonstrated. let me close with this. there is no greater responsibility of government than to insure the safety of the american people and those who serve and protect us all. we're incredibly proud of all of you, i mean that. incredibly proud of all of you. we will have your back as long as we need to, as long as you are engaged. just in the past two weeks our nation has observed national fallen firefighters memorial weekend. national police weekend, national peace memorial officers day and also hosted this event several times as president and vice president and co-sponsored the bill that created the metal of valor when i was a u.s. senator. these are the same -- some of the most meaningful things i do as president. knowing you, meeting your families, looking in your eyes, seeing your courage gives me so much hope for the country.

[applause] >> dana: a very moving, significant and symbolic event at the white house today. the president honoring nine with the medal of valor and three of the officers actually unable to attend because they died in the line of duty and the president recognizing them. an important day at the white house recognizing first responders and police. >> bill: their actions will never be forgotten now and

certainly this day at the white house will never be forgotten for them and their families. well done, congratulations. as we like to say, thank you for your service. >> dana: absolutely. meantime let's get to the news here. more fallout over the durham report after they found the f.b.i. had no actual evidence between trump and russia before the 2016 election. >> bill: the 306 page report providing details how the clinton team, top intelligence officials and the media hatched the plan pushing the baseless narrative for years and now that the findings are out, key democrats and mainstream media are under a micro scope as they try to downplay the findings. >> durham's whole thing is predicated on like a rabbit hole conspiracy. >> this is a predictable, sad ending to an investigation that never should have taken place. >> what you have with john dorm

is a big fat nothing. >> durham is a pathetic character. four years, i don't know how many millions of dollars, i don't know how many people -- how many of his friends he hired in his office to do what? >> bill: there is that. david spunt has more from the department of justice today. good morning. >> good morning. former attorney general bill barr sat down with bret baier last night on "special report" for a fascinating wide ranging interview. we have to remember there would not be a durham investigation if not for then attorney general bill barr who tapped durham in may of 2019 to look at the origins of the trump/russia narrative see how it began. barr called what happened a a bomb nation and the claim that f.b.i. officials suppressed an investigation into allegations of impropriety within the clinton foundation leading up to the 2016 election. in the clinton foundation matter

officials placed restrictions how those matters would be handled such that no investigative activities occurred for months leading up to the election. here is barr. >> they took this information at face value, they relied upon it. it was unvetted. things happened here that were a radical departure from how these cases are normally handled and completely incompatible with the idea it was an unbiased investigation. >> both d.o.j. and f.b.i. sources bill and dana i spoke with over the past few days know the report is problematic but says it focused on the f.b.i. and d.o.j. in 2016 and 2017 not today. >> i have to say that one of the things coming out of this is it's clear the f.b.i., the problem that came from the top. this was not necessarily institutional rot or problems

that may exist today. this was comey, mccabe, strzok driving this thing from the top. that's no longer the problem at the f.b.i. >> on capitol hill house speaker kevin mccarthy throwing a lot of shade and putting a lot of blame on adam schiff questioning if he should even be in congress for his role in this. >> bill: not the end of it. >> dana: john levine, the cover of the "new york post." whack job. how hillary, the f.b.i. and press plotted to destroy trump. we'll get to the media in a moment because of how they are considering this report as a dud. they circled around that language. you covered the story, you've known the story for a long time and read the report. what are your takeaways. >> this is not a dud. it is incredibly, behavior described, there was never a good reason to open this

investigation. the entire thing was based on the steele dossier published by buzz feed discredited from a very early stage and now you are seeing the apologists and defenders say it was maybe it was bad but just 2016, 2017. we fixed all the problems and made all the changes. anyone looking at the f.b.i. today i think would have a hard time believing that. we have seen so much since 2016 and 2017. where is the special counsel for the f.b.i.'s actions with hunter biden? where is the special counsel for the f.b.i.'s actions with twitter and restricting free expression. i think this is just the beginning. >> bill: msnbc called it a dud, a rabbit hole conspiracy. cnn called it a debacle. the same organizations, ten pulitzers to the post and ten

pull itsers and other prizes for other stations. that's heavy hardware in our business. >> there is no honor for those awards anymore. they went toward reporting that was all based on a lie. how many pulitzer prizes and hunter biden reporting won? 0. i don't know what to do. all i can say the media organizations bought it hook, line and sinker from the beginning and now it is too big of a faux pas to go the other direction and they plow through to the end and all they can do is discredit to the report. to not would be to discredit themselves. >> bill: they sang the same song for days, months and years and had the ratings to prove it. >> we talked about the bermuda news triangle. they will keep this from them. we have to keep going. >> dana: something that is happening right now. the i.r.s. whistleblower, a letter that accuses the justice department led by merrick

garland of retaliation in the hunter biden probe. listen to a former u.s. attorney here. >> there are other people that have seen and observed and listened to the manner in which d.o.j. and other agencies have protected the bidens. it needs to stop. we need to expose it. this is the bread and butter of a fraud and corruption case that any prosecutor and any investigator would be proud to dig into if you took politics out of it. >> dana: what's going on with this situation? >> we're still learning. on the face very, very disturbing. federal whistleblowers are protected by federal statute. you want to keep the integrity of the whistleblower process. if there is malfeasance you want to have people come forward in a legal way. when you undermine that you end up with this bad information either never coming out to the public or an illegal way with edward snow den. it is disturbing.

retaliation is illegal. point blank illegal for that to have occurred. it is something that probably jim jordan and his committee investigating the weaponization of the federal government probably should take a look at. >> bill: you have gone through the laptop. you are one of the few. >> yes. it is -- >> bill: what is that like? >> it's a blizzard. a very complicated primary source document. there are business records very difficult to untangle as we've seen from james comer, llcs transferring money to llcs mixed in with all the salacious content which is very lurid but not necessarily the most relevant pieces of it. it has been a years' long process. >> bill: roll sound bite seven. this is what we heard back in the day. all right, on the laptop. >> this is the classic textbook soviet russian drafted. >> widely known, peter, there was a broad range of russian disinformation back in 2020.

>> you still think that the story about his son hunter -- [inaudible] >> yes, yes, yes. god love you, man, you are a one-horse pony. >> that might have worked in 2020 when it first came out but it won't work in 2024. there is more reporting since the original disclosures and curious to see what same people say when it is relitigated in the next election. >> dana: i can't wait for the president if he is asked about the durham report. the press secretary declined to state even though it is huge news. he should be asked. maybe not on this foreign trip. john, great to see you. >> bill: thank you. >> dana: brand-new developments on escaped suspects in philadelphia. they broke out of jail ten days

ago. they didn't know they were missing for a full day. the other man was taken into custody last week. c.b. cotton can catch us up. >> the escaped prisoner on the run for more than a week was arrested this morning not far from the prison he broke out of and a tweet philadelphia police commissioner said 18-year-old was taken into custody without incident and she thanked investigators and u.s. marshal service. he was in jail awaiting trial accused of killing four people and three separate shootings incidents when he was 16. they said because of his age it is likely he had help to stay out of sight. he and another man snuck out through a hole in a chain link fence. their disappearance went unnoticed for 19 hours despite three head counts. they spotted him wearing women's clothing. so far three people have been arrested for helping the two

escapees. on monday the other suspect was arrested. investigators are looking at how the two men escaped. they aren't ruling out the possibility of additional arrests in the case and we'll be watching that press conference. >> dana: thank you. >> bill: so now title 42 is gone. and at the border the florida governor ron desantis, idaho governor brad little are sending reinforcements at the request of texas governor greg abbott. u.s. agencies are taking new measures to try to discourage people to come in illegally. bill melugin with more from the border. >> critics of the biden administration have long argued they need to start showing images of deportation flights. show migrants there are consequences for crossing into the u.s. illegally. with title 42 gone it appears that's exactly what they are

doing. look at the video, cbp put it out yesterday. it shows groups of migrants who crossed into texas illegally. they bounced them back to mexico. the mexicans are putting the migrants on airplanes and flying them down to southern mexico to the southern mexican city. the idea being title 42 is gone. are you no longer going to get bounced back on the river. if you aren't deported you will get back to southern mexico and your journey will get restarted. ice is putting out similar messaging. look at this video showing one of their deportation flights from miami to honduras. it has been very rare to see these deportation flights under the biden administration but ice is being much more pro-active with their messaging telling migrants you will be returned. you will be deported if you cross illegally. they want migrants to go through the legal pathways they say they

have set up. cbp1 app to port of entry. ice being more proactive with the media inviting media to see the flights and distributing it to the media to send a message to migrants there are consequences. these images out of border patrol's el paso sector. significant human smuggling stash house bust. they found 54 illegal immigrants being held in a single cartel smuggling stash house. six of them had prior removal orders. they are being prosecuted for that and lastly take a look at this mug shot. yuma, arizona sector border patrol agents arrested this illegal immigrant from honduras, a felon previously convicted of manslaughter. with the lower numbers of illegal crossings the last few days is allowing more agents to get back on the front lines and catch guys like the ones we just showed you. we'll send it back to you. >> bill: on and on it goes. brownsville, texas coming up

more later today with you. thank you, bill. >> dana: let's get to the race for the republican nomination. a grow number of state lawmakers are throwing their weight behind ron desantis on the verge of launching for the white house. let's bring in kellyanne conway former advisor to president trump. we're in the zone, i understand, that ron desantis the governor of florida, will throw his hat in the ring. what does it look like from your perspective right now? >> desantis has assets and liabilities and possibilities. i'll run through them. asset is that he got reelected by 19 points in our third largest state and he just a massed some significant wins as a conservative center right governor on guns and public safety and education. he launched a trip overseas and had a national book tour and amass endorsements and going to the people and raised a ton of

money. as we have talked for a long time donors don't choose the nominees, voters do. now desantis has to turn one of his liabilities to an asset. he hasn't even scratched the surface of dipping into let alone digging deeply into the maga voter. how do you pull over hardened trump voters? you have done a great job as governor of florida, why don't you wait your turn. we go back to the guy who actually did the job the first time. we like the job he did and want him back. ron desantis will have his time to shine and go out and announce his candidacy. maga voters, the base, 74 million people who voted for trump/pence in 2020 a large portion of our country. they want to hear, dana, they want to hear ron desantis defend trump more when something like the durham report comes out and

bragg indictment and arraignment happens in new york. they feel ron desantis is a good fighter against disney but want him to be a fighter for them. trump is a fighter for the people. desantis needs to show a little bit of that. desantis, i think the last six months has -- he allowed himself to be seen as an alternative to trump. his best path is an alternative to biden. the way that will transport him to a general election situation so more people can see him that way. >> dana: i wanted to ask you about comments ron desantis made yesterday talking about president trump. he is talking about the six-week abortion ban bill he signed into law. >> i think that as a florida resident he didn't give an answer about would you have signed the heartbeat bill that florida did that all the exceptions that people talk

about. the legislature put it in. i signed the bill and proud to do it. he won't answer whether he would sign it or not. >> dana: if we had all time in the world are pro-life voters that might vote in iowa, new hampshire the same as the maga voters you were talking about and something desantis can use to differentiate between him and the former presidents? >> he could. i believe iowa had a similar bill signed into law by kim reynolds. i think the opening bid for these republican candidates for president has to be the federal 15-week bill. what ron desantis did in florida is what the legislature put on his desk and they represent floridians. there is only one person who can say i'm a true convert and became the most pro-life president in u.s. history, donald trump. the judges, mexico city policy, taking some of the money that would have gone to planned parenthood and pushing it to the qualified women's health center that provide healthcare to women

and ma'am -- mammograms. trump changed things when he looked at clinton saying you are the extremist. people went ooh. we have a lot of work to do as pro-lifeer. took 50 years to overturn roe v. wade and it will take time to change hearts and minds and compelling on what it means to be pro-life. six weeks, 12 weeks, 15 weeks. only one person can say i became the most pro-life president in history. >> dana: thank you for your insight as always. >> thank you. >> bill: here are breaking news on the royals in new york city. moments ago, according the reuters news agency, a spokesperson for prince harry out of london says that he and

his wife, meghan markle and her mother were involved in a quote near catastrophic car chase with paparazzi in new york city. apparently it happened yesterday. they were in town for an award ceremony. the spokesperson calls it a relentless pursuit that lasted more than two hours. they say it involved several near collisions. so she was apparently in town with an organization called the ms. foundation for women based out of brooklyn. there was an event that was honoring her and just looking at the website, they talk about building women's collective power in the united states by investing and strengthening the capacity of women-led movement to have cultural and economic change. she was in town for that. it went under our radar. we don't know the details. >> dana: you wonder if there is any video that would provide an

understanding of what happened if it lasted for over two hours. >> remember what he said about his mom. he always blamed the paparazzi for that. word out of london by way of new york. >> dana: a mother is reeling after her son died from a violent incidents on a new york city subway. richard washington was left paralyzed after an unprovoked stabbing last year. he died this past week after battling an infection related to his stab wounds. now his mother is calling out the mayor for not doing anything to help her family. bryan llenas live with reaction from the mother of richard washington. hi, bryan. >> last january '36-year-old richard washington was stabbed in the neck twice while standing on a subway platform in new york city left paralyzed from the neck down. he spent the last year in and out of the hospital but tragically died last friday from an infection due to those stab

wounds. take a look at this photo. it is heartbreaking. this is barbara, his mother, holding her son for the last time. barbara and her daughter say they have been abandoned by the city and left strapped with thousands of dollars in medical bills and they tell me that he the are outraged the city is helping migrants and not them. >> why would you go and give immigrants and bring them here and your city streets aren't safe? it is not safe here. why would you do that and you don't have care for your own people. my son was homeless for seven years. now i am facing eviction. there is no place or help for me. >> the family says richard was a good man who spent seven years in and out of homelessness but on his way the restarting high his life when he was randomly attacked by a man who was homeless and mentally ill. arrested multiple times for

robbery. the family says new york city has not done enough to get mentally ill people off the streets. >> they are doing nothing in my eyes. it is like we're doing but i don't see nothing. >> they release them right back to the public. >> that doesn't make no difference. >> according to the nypd transit crime in new york city is up 53% compared to the same time in 2021. the man is charged with attempted murder and two counts of assault. the charges could be upgraded as his death is now deemed a homicide. he leaves behind a 13-year-old son. tragic. >> bill: more breaking news from the white house. we showed you the medal of valor a moment ago and the president will have comments on debt ceiling negotiations in ten minutes. what he says we don't know. this will happen moments before he takes off for his visit overseas in japan.

a trip that was supposed to go to new guinea and australia and yesterday the white house said we are just going to japan and coming back home again. maybe that could change again. i don't know. ten minutes away and see what he has to say on the latest there. >> our children are being used as pawns, pawns between a conversation, argument between the mayor and president biden. our children are not pawns. >> bill: that's the mother of children who attend the brooklyn school voicing outrage over plans to house migrants in the school's gym. parents are protesting outside several new york city schools where that plan could also take effect. they say at least 20 others are to be considered making it clear they don't want asylum seekers inside the school buildings. carol markowitz is a "new york post" columnist. good morning. a moment since we've spoken here. nate foye is with a woman in the last hour at this school.

a grandmother. has grandkids at the school and came to the u.s. in the 1970s by way of puerto rico. how will this go over with the people who are saying don't bring them here? >> look, i feel for these families. i understand that they are being treated like pawns. but the thing is most of these people voted for mayor adams. most of these people are saying we want the migrants here, we just don't want them in our schools. where should they go? think about all the border towns that have been dealing with this for years. new york city can't handle them? you think little towns in texas can? the idea that eric adams and biden are on different sides, they aren't. eric adams just wants more money from the biden administration. they are both for open borders and allowing in any migrant who wants to come. then what? what do we do with these people that you wanted to come here and now they are here? >> bill: here is what your paper

is writing about. mayor adams, stop hiding the 150 sites where you are housing migrants. new yorkers want to know if building in their hoods, hotels, warehouses, unused government property will be hosting migrants. there are concerns about safety and other issues are entirely legitimate. last week 4,200 migrants arrived here in new york. another 15 buses are slated to get here this weekend. carol. what is going to give? is it central park and a big tent? >> it could be grayci mansion, let's start with the lawn. the idea that 4,000 migrants have traveled to new york city and have had hundreds of thousands coming in every month for the last three years and beyond that. i think that new yorkers really need to reconsider their positions. again it is great that you want to help everybody but how? and the mayor needs to be central in asking this question. he is very much in favor of this.

he keeps saying that these people are asylum seekers and here legally. what would you like to do with them, mayor adams? these are democrats all democrats need to answer. you want to have sanctuary cities and allow everyone to come into the border then what do we do with them? >> bill: the mayor has had pointed words of the administration and not gone well the washington. roll the clip. >> we cannot do this alone and we have been doing it alone thus far. that must stop. we're calling the biden and harris administration and united states department of homeland security, they must use all tools that are available to resolve this issue. it is the irresponsibility of the white house for not addressing this problem. >> bill: that last comment is what's getting a lot of attention now. axios says inside the biden

split with new york eric adams. it is a fighting couple who don't want to hold hands in public. cute line there. axios says other democratic leaders across the country are staying quiet but more than pleased with eric adams being vocal about this. >> again, all that adams is saying is that he disagrees with biden on the money front. he wants more money from the biden administration. i'm a life long new yorker. we moved to florida a year ago because of policies and kids being put last. i saw this kind of thing happening all the time in new york. sticking migrants in school gyms. adams is not saying he disagrees with biden on policy. i would love to hear him say that. he isn't saying that. he is saying provide us with more cash money to handle this issue in new york city. i just don't think it's anywhere near enough. we need a stark policy change and adams is not representing that at all. >> bill: it will go on for some time. it's clear. carol markowitz from the "new

york post." thanks for coming on today. >> dana: look at chicago where chicago police officer ariana preston is being laid to rest today. the 24-year-old was only a few years into the job before becoming the latest victim of the city's lethal crime surge. mike tobin is live outside the church service if oak lawn, illinois. hi, mike. >> one of the things plain to see at the trinity united church of christ on chicago's south side is the sea of police uniforms. as you look to the police standing here outside of the church you will notice that some of the officers have yellow ribbons on their uniforms. the officers from the fifth district. home to preston. you can see illinois state police and sheriff's deputies. not only officers from all over illinois but from wisconsin and indiana. all of them coming to pay respects to ariana preston, a three-year veteran of the force. 24 years old he just completed her master's degree. the head of chicago's fraternal

order of police said she was slated for big things but she was returning home from her shift and ambushed by four teenages. she fought back and shot twice. grazed once. those teenagers are now charged with first degree murder but they have reputations and records that go deep back into their juvenile years. even lori lightfoot noted that preston's killers should not have been on the street. >> we live in a time now where people who wreak havoc, violent habitual offenders that need to be off the streets have no respect. we've seen too many times a number of increases in the officers in uniform, in marked cars, they are getting shot. >> visitation for officer preston was at the funeral home six miles away from here.

she is being transported for the ceremonies and the final farewell before she is laid to rest and that will begin in 20 minutes. her murder has brought into question shots about technology which did not generate an immediate response from first responders because it was overwhelmed. it brought into question if police are overwhelmed and violent criminals are left on the street to rampage. officer preston did not get to receive her master's degree. her mother received it for her at loyola university this weekend. >> dana: tragic story. >> what we're learning about the royals in new york city yesterday or last evening whenever it was. a spokesperson for prince harry saying he and his wife meghan and her mother were involved in a near catastrophic car chase with paparazzi. they say it happened for a period of two hours. they were in town for some sort of awards ceremony to honor meghan markle. tmz writes it this way.

it appears at some point during the chase, the s.u.v. they were riding in pulled over. they jumped in a new york taxi and beat a hasty retreat and then the nypd tried to outwitt the paparazzi by driving in a different direction than the cab. we're learning this as we read it now. something happened in new york. what exactly was is hard to know. >> dana: we'll continue to cover that and see what happens. >> bill: remember the netflix series now. they were in new york talking about the paparazzi and that went on some time, i think for half an episode, if memory serves. >> dana: we'll keep at it and see what happened and see if there is any video. >> bill: update from the president in a matter of moments talking debt ceiling at the white house. we were told it is at 10:45 east coast time. that's two minutes away. we'll see what he has to say and see if he is on time. he goes to japan later and we'll

see whether or not there is movement on these negotiations. around here, we like to keep things simple and honest. sure do. that's why at progressive, we show you rates from other companies, even if they're lower than ours, so you can choose what's best for your family. comparing rates used to be a hard day's work, but not with autoquote explorer. -need me to help again? -no. so join us and taste why progressive is the name people trust. sorry, are we talking about apples now or insurance?

(vo) choose the phone you want, on us. during our spring savings event.

(cecily) on the network worth bragging about. verizon sam was 8 when we got him. i convinced my husband to go to the adoption day and we saw sam. he did not bark for like a month after we got him. and then one day he went “woof.” i was like, “you can talk!” advice to dog owners? feed them good food, take them on walks, let them stop and sniff, play with them, love on them as much as possible... because even if sam lives to 20, it won't be long enough.

your bug spray should take out bugs, not keep out people. unlike other sprays that stick around, zevo goes from kill to clean in just seconds, plus it's safe for use around people and pets. zevo. people-friendly. bug-deadly.

>> we saw this coming. we saw there would be this ability in order to take 0s and ones inside a computer and turn

it into a face and character. i could be hit by a bus tomorrow and that's it. but my performances can go on and on and on. >> bill: a lot of jobs not safe from a.i. including tom hanks. he gave a dire warning that technology could replace him in his film. comedian tom shillue has thoughts on this. good morning. >> that was in "big big". he pretended he was young but wasn't. >> bill: terrible movie. the red shoe, remember that one? that was a bad movie. >> dana: i thought the hearing yesterday was interesting maybe on paper. the presentation a little dry but here is call for number two, sam altmann started open ai which led to chatgpt. >> no matter what the law is, the right thing to do is make sure people get significant upside benefit from the new

technology and we believe it will deliver that. but that content owners, likenesses people totally deserve control how it's used and benefit from it. >> dana: for entertainers, are you concerned about this? >> i think tom hanks is semi concerned. he knows he can sell his likeness into the future and heirs can profit from that. he has embraced it again. he does the deaging process. you know what this whole a.i. thing is bad for, colin hanks? remember when he started acting people said it is the young tom hanks. he can play young tom hanks. >> dana: true. >> bill: wait until a.i. gets ahold of forrest gump. the man with one red shoe. there was a poll of 2,000 americans among adults. apatiently many of them pretend

not to see a mess so that others pick it up. you know about this? >> i know. this reminds me of the bill clinton deposition when he said the meaning of -- depends on what the meaning of is, is. some people don't see a mess. some people like me if you don't make the bed it just looks like, you know, a kind of fun look. the bed is all rumpled up. my wife likes a made bed. i don't see it as a mess, right? >> bill: clever. >> dana: we don't have a lot of -- you want to see the numbers? 49% admit to pretending not to see it. in the kitchen, i could see that. 25% in the bathroom and 18% in the bedroom. okay. we actually don't have any messes. we don't have kids. he have a dog. there is one substance, sorry peter, called hp sauce. i can't stand it, okay?

it is like ketchup and i find it everywhere. i find a little smear here or there because peter loves it so i'm like. peter can't see the hp sauce on the counter. it's like only i can see it. it is a weird thing. >> my kids want to help us. so they'll want to put the dish in the dishwasher but then there is a thing you open it up and it's all clean dishes. >> dana: peter is a very tidy person except the hp sauce. >> bill: it is the british version of ketchup and they put it on everything. >> dana: great to see you. let's get you back to breaking news on the royals. a spokesperson for prince harry saying he and his wife meghan were involved in a near catastrophic car chase with paparazzi. they say that it happened yesterday in new york. they were in town for an awards ceremony where she was being

awarded from the ms. organization in brooklyn. the spokesperson calls it a relentless pursuit that lasted more than two hours and they say it involved several near collisions. so laura engel has been gathering what she can on this story for us so far. let's get to her. >> good morning. we're trying to get information on this. the news breaking in the last hour. we do understand, according to some reports, that the nypd is aware of this and may have been involved in this watching it. but we have not received comment from the nypd. as you mentioned, we're getting word from a spokesperson that prince harry and meghan markle issued a statement saying the couple of her mother were involved in a terrifying paparazzi car chase here in new york. according to these reports the incident happened after harry and meghan attended an awards ceremony in new york. the chase described as near

catastrophic. car chase involving paparazzi photographers, the incident lasted over two hours and there were multiple near collisions. here in new york city again waiting for the nypd to tell us something on this. this brings up the compareson to how harry's mother died in paris. at some point the souvenir pulled over and the three jumped into the new york city taxi cab. we have heard reports they stayed at a private residence. we continue to work on the story to bring you more details about exactly what went down in new york city last night that caused this incident and, of course, very worried statement from the couple's spokesperson. we'll bring you more as we get it. >> dana: thank you. >> bill: thank you. >> dana: anything else over there? >> bill: tmz website have a couple of pictures. we reported they got out of the car and into a taxi. apparently there is a picture of

that. so i don't know what part of town it was. you can clearly see meghan markle sitting in the back seat of the taxi and one after that so the three of them. there is meghan markle's mom, meghan and prince harry is sitting across in an oversized s.u.v. in the middle seat holding up his i-phone to take a video of the photographers outside the window there. how is that for deep investigative reporting? >> dana: it would be very disturbing for them. nobody wants to be in a situation like that. and then, of course, he has always maintained that his mother was wrongfully killed in that car chase. >> bill: and if you saw the series on netflix, millions did watch it. there is a scene in new york city where they came into town for something, a photo shoot where she was on the phone and she was talking to some others about i saw this photographer

here. she calls them pap, short for paparazzi. i saw them over here and around the corner and drive the west side highway. it was front of mind for meghan markle when she was in new york at that time. >> dana: the other thing is to be curious about if there is more video and who knows if he was taking a picture there as you see in the tmz photo holding up the phone. will they release any video or did anybody else have any video to get a clearer picture of what happened? >> bill: what's interesting. in new york city when something like this happens it hits social media in a minute. so far there has been no evidence of it. whether or not that turns out to be the case in the end we can't spay. >> dana: described as catastrophic with several near collisions. would also wonder what time of day this was. sometimes traffic in the city

doesn't mean you can't be chased but traffic in the city has been awful and you can't get very far very fast. >> bill: tom, what are we to make of this? >> i don't know what the problem is. don't drive away fast. you say you are in a car chase. it is like you have to -- it takes two to tango. there is no car chase if you aren't fleeing like a lunatic. allow people to photograph -- what's her problem getting photographed? she is all dolled up. once you leave your hotel or wherever you are, get ready to have people snap your picture. everywhere we are people have their phones. i don't know what the fleeing is. >> dana: just to let you know, this news has been breaking in the last 30 minutes that we get word about it. buckingham palace was asked for comment and they don't have any at this time. read what the spokesperson for

the duke and duchess said was that last night they were involved in a near catastrophic car chase with a ring of paparazzi. it resulted in multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road. pedestrians and two nypd officers. while being a public figure comes with interest from the public but should never come of the safety. it encourages a practice dangerous to all involved. this is top of mind for them. it is interesting they say it involved two nypd officers. that might be an opening for the public to get more information about what happened. >> bill: maybe they had an escort. hard to get around this town. the city has changed. you have outdoor restaurants on every block set up from covid days. some are being used, some not.

you have bicycle lanes, people on scooters 24/7, laura. >> that's right. you bring up a really good point thinking about those outdoor structures. we don't know exactly where this happened but as we wait for the nypd to call us back and tell us more about what happened i want to bring up a piece of tmz reporting. the paparazzi in these blackout vehicles claiming the traffic violations including driving on the sidewalk, running red lights and driving the wrong way on one-way streets. you think about this paparazzi jumping the curbs if this is true and reported by tmz how dangerous these are and how busy the sidewalks are. it was a beautiful day in new york city and warm. so many people were out on the sidewalk and so many people in the outdoor structures. you mentioned the bikes and scooters, you have to look both ways every way you go these days to miss those guys. >> bill: laura, thank you. stay on it. traffic patterns are all

different in new york stance covid. they put a plan down by bloomberg and executed that plan during the covid years ripped up a lot of streets. moved parked cars to different lanes to make room for bicycle lanes. the streets are single lane throughout the entire island of manhattan and it can be a mess. >> dana: it is scary to jump on the sidewalk with so many pedestrians. harris faulkner will take it from here. >> harris: we'll stay on breaking news. we begin with a fox news alert. right now the funeral for chicago police officer preston is getting underway. she was shot and killed on her way home from work nearly two weeks ago. her family, friends, colleagues and nation are saying thei
