fuel pump about this model of aircraft. the airways says it was in compliance with the order. the ntsb will be probing that engine later this morning. robin. >> we have aviation expert. people want to know how could this happen. >> in most aviation mishappens it boils down to somebody made a mistake or something broke or a combination. what we think happened is the big pipe that supplies fuel to the engine became either disconnected or broke somehow and ended up putting hot flammable jet fuel on that hot engine which you saw created this terrible fire. >> the ntsbs is going to be on the scene. what are they looking for. >> the maine on the particular aircraft and the procedures that

>> i can't speak to this airline but when people buy a discounted airline ticket they have to understand that that airline is probably discounting things like maintenance and crew training as well and discounting your personal safety as well. >> steve thank you very much. unfortunately people are able to get down the shoots. there were some injures. >> the breaking news overnight. the fugitive on the run in kentucky. good morning alex. good morning. investigators say it was helped from thermal imaging cameras that caught up with cook. >> overnight a manhunt ending in gunfire. investigators narrowing down their search in kentucky late thursday night to a section of high way 61 spotting floyd ray

cook was armed and refused to cooperate. shooting at officers who returned fire killing him. >> tonight was the scary moment. because, you know, we didn't know where he was and when you're searching in the dark that's an uneasy feeling. >> reporter: cook on the run for nearly a week spotted earlier in the day by a neighbor who says he was asking for a ride. his spree starting saturday when he was pulled over by an officer in algood, tennessee, and opened fire. >> shots fired. officer down. >> reporter: a bullet striking the officer in the chest. >> i have help coming. i need you to breathe. talk to me, brother. okay i know you're hit. they're coming. >> reporter: the officer luckily wearing a bulletproof vest. hours later cook firing at another officer before escaping on foot. wednesday night, authorities arresting two of his associates. >> they are extremely dangerous individuals. >> reporter: cook was serving a sentence of more than 100 years when he was paroled in 2009.

>> look, there are two types of talkers and there are the doers. i wish i could talk as well as some of the people on the stage, the big personalities on the stage. but i'm a doer. >> reporter: the reflection following wednesday night's debate where he went after his friend, senator marco rubio for missing more votes than any other senator this year. >> marco, when you signed up for this, this was a six-year term. >> reporter: but his attack falling flat after rubio anticipating the move stopped bush cold. >> someone has convinced you that attacking me is going to help you. >> he was on that stage and called on you to resign, personally, what did that feel like? >> you know, these things happen in campaigns, unfortunately. i'm not going to let a campaign change me. i still have tremendous admiration and affection for him. >> reporter: the debate coming under criticism from the rnc and front-runner in the latest polls, dr. ben carson saying he's contacting the other campaigns to change the format of the debates. >> debates are supposed to be

get to know the candidates. what it's turned into is a gotcha! that's silly. >> reporter: now, the effort carson has told us about apparently is gaining steam. the rnc said they'll meet with all the campaigns to re-evaluate and reset everything when it comes to those debates. >> okay, tom, thanks. let's talk to jon karl about all this. you know a campaign is trouble when the candidate says we're not on life support. >> makes it sound like he was pulling the plug. he sounds positively deflated if you talk to his top advisers. they sound deflated. the case they make, george, is that we have another debate in less than two weeks. he still has plenty of money. the super pac has $80 million left. if you saw this power point presentation they're looking at going after marco rubio even harder. this portrays rubio as not only inexperienced but ethically challenged. really tough stuff. >> see if he's willing to do that in the next debate. both marco rubio and ted cruz who had a good night trying to capitalize on their performances.

>> clearly rubio is the consensus winner but cruz has a lot of signs of early momentum raising more than a million dollars in the 24 hours since that debate. this raises the possibility that you can have a campaign come down to two 44-year-old cuban-americans who both got elected as tea party candidates, really quite fascinating, both freshmen senators and think carson and trump will fade and they both see each other as the main ultimate rivals. >> meantime, donald trump is still the front-runner, jon karl, thanks. he'll be here live in studio next tuesday to talk about his campaign and his new book "crippled america." >> donald trump on tuesday. but now to that runaway military blimp. parts of it are still being removed from the pennsylvania woods where it crash landed and there are still questions about how it broke free. abc's linsey davis is on the scene for us again this morning. good morning, linsey. >> reporter: good morning, robin. some of you may have seen the #blimpdown, well right in the woods behind me is where it actually went down. some parts of the blimp have already been removed and taken

back to maryland but a massive recovery effort is still under way. the runaway blimp not out of the woods just yet. the recovery effort is a massive undertaking. first requiring a $175 million balloon be shot. 100 times. >> you may have heard shotgun shots. that is how we are deflating it. >> reporter: while the tethered tail and most sensitive parts of the 10,000 plus pound balloon have all reportedly been removed, the body of the 240-foot blimp is still in this pennsylvania field. >> look at this rope, how long it is. >> gosh. >> it goes over top of the mountain. >> reporter: after traveling 160 miles at roughly 50 miles per hour the departure from these woods. slower and more anti-climactic than its arrival. after tearing away from its post wednesday, the blimp on the loose sending f-16 fighter jets scrambling. and knocking out power to nearly 30,000 people.

>> somebody might want to call 911. >> reporter: eyes no longer scrutinizing the skies but the program itself. some questioning how this blimp paid for with taxpayer dollars part of a nearly $3 billion program used to defend the nation's capital against airborne attacks ended up tattered, torn and twisted in these pennsylvania trees. >> a system so expensive and so sophisticated should have had some sort of failsafe systems that would never have allowed the balloon to just drift away. >> reporter: the technology is designed to find low-flying, fast-moving small threats but some argue it's too expensive and ineffective, especially in its current condition. there are no roads leading up to the site so what remains will likely taken out by helicopter either today or tomorrow but how this became detached is now under federal investigation. george. >> many more questions to answer. thanks very much. powerful winds in the southwest, as well. causing a lot of damage, ginger. >> i mean, this is in los

angeles, you can see the trees on top of the cars and we've got video too from los angeles county, ventura county, up in the mountains, the worst but some down at the ground. santa ana wind event through today. anywhere from the ridges of the san bernardino mountains up to santa barbara and a wind advisory to las vegas. that's the back of the storm. the front already dropping flash flooding around san antonio, a tornado warning earlier this, morning. that same region that got just walloped last weekend could pick up to 7 inches. i know you need a trick-or-treat forecast so i have that coming up in the nation's weather. >> thank you. amy's other top stories. a real scare at a silicon valley hotel. >> a dozen people rushed to the hospital overnight after a strange odor spread through the westin hotel in palo alto, making people sick. guests were told to stay in their rooms. hazmat crews traced it to the parking garage but could not determine the source. overseas another american has reportedly been detained in

iran. an oil company executive, siamak namazi, has duel iranian-american citizenship. his arrest is the latest sign that hard-liners may be trying to stir tensions in the wake of the iran nuclear deal. and at least 22 people have drowned off the coast of greece after boats carrying refugees collided in rough seas. dozens have died in recent days and this morning, a dramatic scene at the austrian border. refugees trying to push their way past the guards. some women and children were nearly trampled. well, in washington, senators burned the midnight oil until 3 a.m. when they finally approved a budget deal preventing a government default. presidential candidates rand paul and ted cruz blasted the spending plan saying it will give president obama a diamond encrusted amex card. tense moments on this american airlines flight when a man started ranting about the 9/11 attacks. other passengers threatened to duct tape him. the flight from l.a. to philadelphia was diverted to

[ speaking a foreign language ] until gava cuts the leg section of his pantsuit deploying his second parachute. landing safely as friends rush to his aid. [ speaking a foreign language ] [ cheers and applause ] >> reporter: his only injury, a minor cut on his hand from the knife he used to cut free. a tool many jumpers carry to help in a crisis like this. you think about if people don't want to sky dive because you

worry the parachute might not open, he had problems before he got that far. >> there's a lot of reasons why i don't want to sky dive. that's an extra one. >> could cut yourself off like that. >> the facial hair, that's a clue to your halloween reveal. >> no, i've had an identity crisis with the beard. people wondering what's going on, yes, i am -- finish. >> in character. >> i didn't want them to draw one on. we wanted to be authentic and reveal it in an hour. >> the man comes to play. >> thank you, t.j. so much more ahead. an abc news exclusive. leah remini on her break from scientology and her take on the church's most famous member. >> being critical of tom cruise is being critical of scientology itself. you are a person who is anti the aims and goals of scientology. you are evil. >> what she says her life was like inside the controversial world of scientology only on "gma." also ahead, a sentencing in

>> reporter: during her nine seasons on the hit cbs show "the king of queens," leah remini appeared to be the ideal scientologist, famous and fiercely loyal but behind the scenes she says she harbored grave doubts including about the world's best-known scientologist, tom cruise. >> i think it's a privilege to call yourself a scientologist and it's something you have to earn. >> being critical of tom cruise is being critical of scientology itself. you are a person who is anti the aims and goals of scientology. you are evil. >> reporter: leah says she first entered cruise's orbit as her own career skyrocketed. what were your impressions of him? >> at first its very u fusive, very loving. you get to laser in on you and you're the most important thing that ever happened. it's what are you doing? how are you doing and yeah, great, great. great, great, great, great. >> reporter: but leah says her exposure to cruise, this is them hugging at a movie premiere

take some time. >> reporter: and coming up tonight on "20/20," you're going to hear how leah's family members many of whom were deep into scientology reacted to her departure from the church and you'll hear from katie holmes, the former wife of tom cruise, what she is now saying about leah guys. >> leah does not hold back when she talks to you. >> no. >> it's must-see tv tonight. you can see it all at 10:00, 9:00 central on abc. >> fascinating stuff. we move to that stunning new video of a deadly shoot-out between biker gangs in a restaurant in texas. the grand jury hearing the cases against the nearly 200 bikers arrested in may and this leaked video the one you saw could impact the outcome. ryan owens has the story. >> reporter: a biker firing a gun as he flees the patio. terrified waitresses running for cover. some of the startling images captured on surveillance tape from that shoot-out between rival biker gangs at this waco, texas, restaurant back in may.

deal with the terrible things that every day were thrown in my direction. >> reporter: labrie's defense argues the encounter was consensual. in august, the jury acquitted him of the most serious charge, felony rape. but found him guilty of misdemeanor sexual assault and of using e-mail and facebook to lure the underage girl. still, labrie won't go directly to jail. he's out on bail while he appeals leaving court embracing his parents with a smile. and labrie's defense attorney telling me he may appeal that one-year sentence and if he's successful labrie may never step foot in a jail cell. george. >> okay. gio, thanks very much. let's start there, dan abrams is here with us. any chance on appeal? >> he's got a chance but it's an uphill battle for the defense. certainly with regard to the year sentence on the misdemeanor, sort of the strongest argument the defense had was that the felony here that gio was talking about luring a child to have sex by

intended for this sort of crime, this sort of incident. even that argument is going to be tough on appeal. so no question the defense has an uphill battle and as we were just talking about the question will be at some point does he want to just get in there, get this over with and serve his time. >> right to the bottom line, one year in year. a young guy. just go this and get it over with >> that's the decision they'll have to make. there was some arguing in court after the sentence about certain motions and rules and the judge at one point said, look, by the way, if you do certain things here, you could potentially put the suspended sentence on the table. remember, he was also sentenced to a lot more time in prison but that was all suspended as long not a problem. as long as he doesn't get into trouble he won't have to serve that other time. >> what does it mean being registered as a sex offender. >> it means that for at least 15 years if not more, he's going to

have to write down any time he goes anywhere, moves anywhere. he's going to have to file part of the registry, some neighbors will snow, depending on the local area, though, depends on the specific restricts. >> dan abrams, thanks very much. coming up, special halloween "the speed feed." aladdin gets a modern twist. a little hovering magic carpet. who is the genie behind the costume? everyone in times square getting
