ended in the death of eric garner. many people both stunned and angry about that grand jury decision. overnight, hundreds of people pouring into new york's times square to protest the grand jury's stunning decision. in grand central terminal, hundreds more laying down on the floor in what they called a die-in. others laying down on a new york city highway. police officers arresting dozens. protests growing nationwide from oakland, california, philadelphia, atlanta and washington, d.c. overnight, the family of eric garner expressing their grief. >> how could we put our trust in the justice system when they fail us like this? >> reporter: it was back on july 17th that police tried to arrest garner for allegedly selling loose cigarettes. the dramatic confrontation videotaped by bystanders. first garner resisting their attempt to arrest him.

>> don't touch me. >> reporter: then officers grabbing on to the 300-plus pound suspect. officer pantaleo seen with his forearm around garner's throat and wrestling him to the ground. >> can't breathe. i can't breathe. >> reporter: garner, a father of six pronounced dead at a nearby hospital just minutes later. the coroner said the death was from compression of his neck and chest. this morning, the u.s. justice department is launching an investigation into possible civil rights violations against the officer. and bill de blasio urged peace and talked about his own biracial son. we have had to literally train him as families have for decades in how to take special care with any encounter he has with the police officers who are there to protect him.

>> reporter: officer pantaleo, of course, will face possible federal charges that i mention. and also a civil suit and a departmental investigation by the nypd that could end up, george, costing him his job. but no criminal charges here. >> that's from the grand jury. ron claiborne, thanks very much. let's talk about it with dan abrams. a lot of people look at the video tape, how could they not indict? >> what happened here, they weren't able to get 12 of the 23 grand juriy jurors to say they thought there was probably cause to indict. people are going to look at that and they are going to say, chokeholds are not allowed by the nypd. how could there not be an indictment in this case. it's important to note, as a legal matter, just because it's not permitted by the nypd doesn't necessarily make it a crime. you heard ron talking about that. the fact the nypd is going to do their own investigation here. but i have to tell you, having the videotape, and being able to watch it, there was a stronger case for an indictment here even more than ferguson. there you had conflicting testimony about what happened. here you had the video tape of what happened.

and as a result you're seeing a lot of outrage. >> dan, you bring up the ferguson case. a lot of people are talking about the differences. no video there. as you said, there was video here. and all the talk about putting body cameras on police officers, a lot of people, even on social media, are saying what difference is that going to make? >> this is going to be case by case. but don't give up on the video cameras. they're really important. i think it's a great thing that police officers in new york city and i'm sure increasingly around the country are going to be using these body cameras. we want to be able to see exactly what is happening. it is better for us as citizens. i think it is better for the police. both sides, to be able to have that video evidence. so we can now have a conversation about what happened in the garner case and be able to see exactly what happened as opposed to what happened in ferguson where there's a whole dispute about exactly what occurred there. >> let's talk about what is next

right now. eric holder saying there's a federal civil rights investigation. >> nothing is going to happen from the federal civil rights investigation. the standard is higher for a federal case than state. but there will be a civil lawsuit. and potentially a very strong one. >> and hard to believe that the officer is going to return to the force? >> hard to believe because it seems pretty clear that he violated at the very least, nypd procedure. >> dan abrams, thanks very much. >> all right. and moving on to other breaking news, a video released by al qaeda showing an american they are holding hostage and threatening to kill. abc's chief investigative correspondent brian ross is here with more on this. good morning, brian. good morning, this is not isis in syria, but al queda group in yemen. 33-year-old luke somers was working as a journalist and translator when he was kidnapped 14 months ago in yemen. he appeared in the video looking gaunt and clearly under coercion as he spoke for about 30 seconds.

>> basically i'm looking for any help that can get me out of this situation. i'm certain that my life is in danger. >> reporter: elsewhere on the tape, the al qaeda leader said he would meet what he called his inevitable fate unless president obama met the unspecified demands in three days. now, somers was the object of a u.s. special forces raid nine days ago in yemen. it turns out, somers had been moved two days before the raid but the u.s. and yemeni forces were able to free eight or nine other hostages, robin. >> any reaction from the white house? >> no, but they are looking for clues that might help them find luke somers. >> hopefully they will. and now to the record-breaking storm pounding the west coast, causing mudslides, flash floods, and massive sink holes in the streets. san francisco hit so hard. aditi roy is there. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, george. i'm standing next to a sink hole that's 20 feet long and 40 feet deep. take a look. you can't even see down the

bottom. so large, you can fit an entire car down there. so large it shut down an entire intersection. one of the signs of destructive storms sweeping through california. this morning a gaping sink hole in the middle of this san francisco street. raging storm water causing the water pipe underneath the asphalt to burst. the roadway, crumbling. neighbors scrambling. >> i called several neighbors and could tell that this was a bigger issue than just my home. >> reporter: breaking overnight, authorities residuing more than a dozen people trapped in their cars that were stuck in at least four feet of mud. the powerful storm turning roadways into waterways. look at this major freeway just north of san francisco. three lanes of u.s. 101 submerged. the on and off ramps, shut down. a car in this park and ride parked underwater while the water-logged interstate turned into a parking lot. look at the miles of grid lock. >> you couldn't go anywhere. it was a standstill. >> reporter: police in mill

the bad news is that 52% of the strains are not a good match for the vaccine because of mutations that have taken place in the flu. and they're concerned people won't be as well protected this year. so people are waking up saying, do i get the flu shot, not get the flu shot? what do i do? >> i understand the concern. the cdc says still get the vaccine. i think that's good advice. because it should provide some protection. here's what they're saying that's a little bit different. if you're in a high-risk group, doctors are recommending that within 48 hours of developing flu symptoms they start you on an anti-flu medication. children under 2, people over 65, people with medical problems like heart disease, lung disease, immune problems. pay attention to whether flu is in your community. if you develop the symptoms, call your doctor and get on the medication early. >> you'll be on twitter to answer everybody's questions? >> i will, i'll be there right now. let's get the other developing stories, amy. good morning. and good morning. we begin with brecking news. a suspect taken into custody in the murder of a colorado teacher at a luxury mall in abu dhabi. a female suspect dressed in

>> they were really nice. >> you guys really bonded. miss hannigan. i love how she says miss hannigan is mean, but not cameron. not cameron at all. i love how you -- carol burnett was in the original "annie," and the way you took over the role. i love the modern twist you put to it. >> thank you. i feel like this is a movie that we, of course, all, a generation, know what it is. but we made this movie for a totally new generation that hasn't seen that movie. they don't know what the old "annie" is like. maybe never see it. this is their "annie." my hannigan is their hannigan. i don't think this generation we made it for will look at and compare hannigan against hannigan. it was a lot of fun. a lot of face acting. a lot of face acting happening. lots of scowl. my face was very tired by the end of the shoot.

>> they have to wait and see the credits. the little outtakes with the credits, so worth it. hey, you know what is something that is timeless? it's the heart and spirit. that is something that has remained true. and your character, you play, like, will's right hand hand, so to speak. and that you talk about her being a -- being a hero. but you're a hero too, your character. >> oh, yeah. it's -- we with a lot of fun. you know, it was such -- so uplifting the music on set and the kids. i have never done a family film before. it was a new experience. i really embraced it and loved it. >> it felt like a family out there. were you a little worried, because bobby, he's your guy, and the dance scene that he has with cameron. >> pretty sexy. >> you can dance, my man. >> that was a lot of practice. i didn't know what i was doing in the beginning. working with her is great, cameron is like an athlete. you know, we just went so hard

every time. >> yeah, it was really fun. i was amazed when he said he never danced before, he's a great lead. natural lead. >> yeah, also nice to dance with somebody who's tall. we had a good time. >> it looked like you had a good time. and you seem like you were really being a father. i mean, you are a father in real life. and that came through in the film as well, jaime. >> yes, to watch this young lady, like, take on this incredible project and watch her bloom. but i have kids, you know, as well as my 6-year-old. i come equipped with some real daddy experiences. and so -- and i think what's great about her is that she was only -- she was 4 when she did this movie. so to be 4 years old. no, i'm serious, to be 4 years old and take on all of these lines and do what you did. you're amazing. now she's a crisp, what? 6 1/2. >> i'm 11. >> oh, i see.

i'll see you at the club tonight. >> the eye roll. we put it on social media. people were just responding so much. and they wanted to know from each of you, what was your favorite part? what was your favorite scene? "annie"? the scenes with quvenzhane. we got to shoot at one world trade outside on the incredible ver ran da. that was really fun. i loved that. >> what was your favorite scene with me? >> well, that was my favorite scene. when you're bald. when your wig -- that's my favorite scene. >> that was the smallest weave, tiniest weave. i like when we were in the -- we were actually in the helicopter flying around the city of new york. that's not green screen. and i thought that was amazing. >> it was beautiful. cameron's character wasn't liking it too much at the end. what was your favorite part? >> the end, and together again.

it's such a fun song and they have such a cute dance routine together. kind of just brings everybody together at the end. it's a lot of fun. >> i have to tell you, we have been talking about it for a while. it is so worth the wait. thank you each and every one, the spientire cast, music, everything. we need that to uplift the spirit. >> we need that. it's time to start healing. there are other things, we don't to want make like we don't know what's going on. it's time to start healing. we are promoting "annie," but let everybody know, let's heal. >> i can sense that from you. i have known you for a long time, and you too, cameron, you are socially conscious. and sandy speaks up too. we're going to have much more with you all coming up.
