good morning, america. and happening now, firefighters facing such intense heat and flames that the army is now being called in to help for the first time in nearly a decade. this as tornadoes spotted touching down in the south. and flash floods happening right now across the country. and breaking news, a second bomb blast hits bangkok this morning after that deadly attack in one of the city's most popular tourist spots. authorities searching for this man seen on camera dropping a backpack just moments before the bomb went off. the right stuff. two women becoming the first female army rangers ever, pushed to the limits in one of the hardest training courses on earth. now earning one of the world's
7:01 am
most elite titles. but now, will the military let these real-life g.i. janes actually serve at all? ♪ i got the eye of the tiger uproar, a tiger goes rogue escaping from a photo shoot, roaming in a stairwell as these men try to secure it. >> this feels like the dumbest thing we've ever done. >> how did they catch this real-life detroit tiger? and we do say good morning, america. and as always, a lot to get to this tuesday morning. donald trump making headlines again. the cameras following him not for the campaign, jury duty. >> the cameras following him everywhere right now. he took some questions there on the courthouse steps. was not picked for the jury but a brand-new poll out this morning shows him the pick of republican voters right now. he is pulling away from the rest of the gop field. >> we'll talk about that a little bit later. but we have right now that severe weather, reported tornadoes, hail, damaging winds. ginger, of course, tracking it all for us.
7:02 am
good morning, ginger. >> yes, robin. the winds more than 70 miles an hour doing damage like this. south and east of denver. there were tornadoes reported south of denver. look at this video out of mississippi. that will later have to be confirmed. very apparent in the video. fortunately, none of these results in injuries. we're so lucky to say that. today, a slice of northern oklahoma up through wichita, kansas city, des moines, western illinois in the damaging wind, large hail, and a few tornadoes could happen. then we have to focus on the excessive heat, still in place in las vegas. through the end of midweek. wednesday really is when it starts to break. look at that. 109, vegas. portland, near 100 today. they could break a record. now to the wildfires. our neal karlinsky is right there in north central washington. neal? >> reporter: ginger, good morning. just to give you some idea of what firefighters around here are dealing with. this is one of the more genter areas. there's a lot of steep, rocky
7:03 am
terrain. firefighters have said they have to deal with boulders rolling downhill at them as they worked the fires overnight. this morning, firefighters across the west are stretched so thin the army is being called in. 200 soldiers from lewis-mcchord will be the first called up in nearly a decade to take on wildfires as their enemy joining more than 30,000 firefighters. >> mother nature at its worst. >> reporter: the problem is all too clear in rural stephens county, washington where homeowners say they were left to fight flames themselves. >> our state's resources are stretched so thin so it was up to us to defend our own property. >> reporter: in chelan, washington, firefighters tell us the terrain is their biggest problem. >> steep terrain, a lot of rocks coming down off the hillside, rolling logs on fire. >> reporter: up to 50 homes lost when flames blasted through this lakeside vacation community saturday night. it burned so hot, you can see this house is still on fire a little bit. and the dock over here which is smoldering actually sank and you
7:04 am
can see the chairs underwater, the rest of it is at the bottom. we took a boat to reach one of the hardest hit stretches. and only now being seen up close by the families who own these homes. >> i didn't recognize it. >> reporter: in oregon, a cabin has been wrapped like a baked potato in the hopes the file will deflect the heat and keep it safe. those soldiers we mentioned will be trained on how to fight fires on wednesday. they'll be deployed to a fire out west on sunday, george? >> thanks very much. we turn to the breaking news in bangkok. a second explosion in the city this morning after monday's deadly blast. and authorities now searching for this suspect right there. our chief foreign correspondent terry moran tracking all the latest. good morning, terry. >> reporter: good morning, george. bangkok is truly a city on edge this morning. and a manhunt now under way for a prime suspect in that horrific bombing. here he is, authorities say. that man in the yellow shirt captured on security camera entering the scene with a backpack. he sits down. he removes the pack. then you see him leaving without it.
7:05 am
moments later, the blast. 22 people dead there. and more than 100 injured. if that weren't enough take a look at this. today at a popular pier, another explosion. this one in the water there after something is apparently tossed from the pier. no one injured there. luckily. but bangkok, no question, is just reeling today. george? >> okay, terry, thanks very much. okay, george, now to the latest on those cyberattacks against the irs. authorities revealing they were much worse than previously thought. more than 300,000 taxpayers' personal information could be at risk. abc's pierre thomas has the latest and joins us this morning from washington. good morning, pierre. >> reporter: good morning, robin. this hack is truly worse than we previously knew. and hundreds of thousands of taxpayers will soon be getting letters in the mail warning that their most sensitive information may have been compromised. the number of americans potentially affected by the irs hack has jumped from 114,000 identified in may to today 334,000.
7:06 am
not just names, dates of birth and social security numbers stolen, but also that intensely personal information on tax forms. salaries, places of employment. where they live. whether they're married and if they have children. in short, all the information that could allow criminals to assume their identities. this latest disclosure comes as the u.s. faces an epidemic of cyberattacks, targeting not only private businesses but federal agencies. in recent months the state department hacked, the white house targeted and that massive opm breach involving millions of government workers. and just last week, the pentagon acknowledged that one of its unclassified e-mail systems had been hit. we recently went to the government cybersecurity center engaged in an epic struggle to keep hackers at bay. in a given day, how many attempted attacks are there on the u.s. government agencies? >> detecting different attacks, my guess, my estimate would be the tens of thousands.
7:07 am
>> reporter: as for the irs hacks, sources say the information stolen will allow someone to get a loan potentially, buy a house, even file for tax refunds. >> our information, pierre, not even safe with the irs. so what should taxpayers do in light of this massive hack? >> reporter: robin, this affects taxpayers using a specific program called get transcript. but there's no easy answer. you have to trust that the irs will fix the security gap and protect your information in the future. and it sounds like you only have to worry if you get that scary letter in the mail. >> all right, pierre, thank you. >> such an assault on government computers. to the race for the white house. "your voice, you vote." and even off the campaign trail, donald trump managed to make headlines, this time for doing jury duty. as some of his gop rivals made bids for votes at the state fair in iowa. abc's tom llamas covering it for us. and that new poll out, tom, shows trump pulling away from the pack. >> reporter: good morning.
7:08 am
some interesting movement since that first debate. a new cnn poll shows trump up six points since july still the clear front-runner. jeb in second place. but the other big headline here, take a look at this. carly fiorina cracking the top ten, knocking out chris christie and guess who leads among both men and women? donald trump. his popularity evident even at court. the republican front-runner taking time off the campaign trail for jury duty. donald trump emerging from his stretch limo swarmed by cameras and microphones outside of the new york supreme court. >> can i have a selfie, please? >> come on. let's go. come on. >> thank you so much. >> reporter: inside of the courthouse, one potential juror even posting this snapchat showing trump waiting to be summoned writing just your average day at jury duty. but the billionaire new yorker not getting tapped, ready to get back to business, answering questions about his new controversial immigration policy outside of the courthouse. how would you deport the 11 million undocumented immigrants? how would you find them and deport them? >> it's going to be very easy. you just watch. >> reporter: how would you do it?
7:09 am
can you give us specifics? trump,vowing to deport all undocumented immigrants and end birthright citizenship for american-born children of undocumented immigrants born in the u.s. what would you tell the child born in the u.s.? >> thank you. >> reporter: donald, tell us something. >> thank you, thank you. >> reporter: trump insisting he'll get mexico to pay for a wall across the southern border by hiking up fees on visas for mexicans entering the u.s. legally. fellow candidate, governor chris christie, polling in the low single digits saying trump's plan makes no sense. >> this is not negotiation of a real estate deal. okay? this is international diplomacy, and it's different. >> reporter: now as trump stays on top, the attacks are sharpening. jeb bush now pouncing on a comment trump said over the weekend. the billionaire said he gets his military advice from cable news and the sunday talk shows. bush saying that's not where he gets his foreign policy ideas. robin? >> so drawing a little more fire there. tom was asking some tough questions there. dogged.
7:10 am
>> sure was. not getting any answers but asking the questions. we move on now to oscar pistorius set to leave prison this friday after serving ten months of his five-year sentence for killing his girlfriend. there is a last-minute move to keep him locked up. abc's ryan smith has the latest on that. good morning, ryan. >> reporter: good morning, robin. prosecutors are taking another run at oscar pistorius, asking an appeals court to find him guilty of murder. if convicted it would keep him behind bars for at least 15 years. with oscar pistorius just three days from being released from prison, this morning, prosecutors making a run to put him back behind bars. >> this court was wrong. >> reporter: in the appeal filed monday, prosecutors who famously skewered the olympic track star known as the blade runner on the stand at his murder trial claims the judge erred in finding him guilty of manslaughter instead of murder by excluding relevant evidence. now prosecutors are asking the courts to upgrade the conviction to murder. >> the worst case scenario for pistorius is that the court of
7:11 am
appeal reverses the decision of the trial court judge and he's sentenced to murder conviction and goes back to prison for life. >> reporter: pistorius was found guilty of manslaughter, sentenced to five years in prison for negligently firing into his bathroom door valentine's day 2014 killing then-girlfriend reeva steenkamp. >> not guilty and is discharged, instead he is found guilty of culpable homicide. >> reporter: pistorius is expected to be released to his uncle's home to serve out the rest of his sentence. the legal battle could drag out for some time and will be quite costly for the athlete who has lost all of his endorsement deals. now, reeva steenkamp's parents aren't commenting on the appeal but released a statement about pistorius' pending release. her 32nd birthday would have been tomorrow. they're saying that they're still struggling with coming to terms with losing their precious
7:12 am
daughter. >> i'm sure they are, ryan, thank you. to amy with the other top developing stories starting with new details about that deadly plane crash in indonesia. >> that's right, robin, search teams in indonesia have reached a passenger jet two days after it slammed into a mountainside. both black boxes have been found as well as the remains of all 54 people on board. the plane lost contact with the airport minutes before it was scheduled to land. and new revelations about hillary clinton e-mails. officials say so far they have flagged more than 300 of clinton's messages for further inspection. but they did not say if they were secret in nature. clinton insists she never used her private server to send or receive e-mails marked classified at the time. and defense attorneys for convicted boston marathon bomber dzhokhar tsarnaev are demanding a new trial in a different location. in a court filing monday they claimed tsarnaev's trial in boston was tainted by widespread media coverage and publicity. take a look at this. a couple of bike riders very lucky to be alive. look at that. the truck swerved, hit another
7:13 am
truck. you see the debris that flew everywhere. and somehow, those two cyclists walk away unscathed. this happened in russia. it seems like the riders just went on with their day. >> wow. >> after that remarkable collision. well, this could end up being the busiest summer ever for the airlines. new estimates released overnight show air travel this labor day holiday expected to be up 3% with more than 14 million people in the air. and finally before we show you this next piece of video, you should know the child involved is okay. but perhaps what will infuriate you the most, what you're about to see is all for a baseball. take a look at the angels fan there reaching over a railing to get the ball with a toddler in tow. he nearly flips over with his little girl pinned up against that railing. after all that effort and risk he loses the ball. there you see. the stadium attendant comes over and looks directly at that undeserving dad and defiantly gives the ball to someone else. if he thinks that was punishment
7:14 am
for his actions to not get the ball, he looked very upset. i want to know what happens when he got home and mama saw what he did. i want a split screen. >> he didn't look at the little girl to make sure she's okay. and she's crying and upset. >> i wouldn't want to go home to that one. okay, amy, thanks very much. to those scathing claims against amazon. this morning, the online retail giant fighting back against "the new york times'" portrayal of their workplace led by jeff bezos, who insists he doesn't recognize the hellish company culture described by "the times." rebecca jarvis is here with the latest. good morning, rebecca. >> reporter: hi, george. good morning to you. and this is the biggest online retailer in the country. laser focused on customer service. but now some of its employees are speaking out describing nightmare conditions at work. this morning, amazon, the world's most valuable retailer, known for dreaming up delivery by drone and gigantic warehouses
7:15 am
manned by thousands of robots, is now defending itself after an in-depth article in this weekend's "new york times" where past and present employees described the company as a nightmare workplace. where workers are encouraged to tear apart one another's ideas and where employees often see their co-workers cry at their desks. the article describing callous disregard for employees dealing with personal crises like cancer. one worker telling "the times" after she lost a baby, she was told her performance would be monitored to make sure her focus stayed on her job. in a memo e-mailed to his 180,000 employees sunday, ceo jeff bezos writes, "the article doesn't describe the amazon i know or the caring amazonians i work with every day. even if it's rare or isolated, our tolerance for any such lack of empathy needs to be zero." in amazon's corporate videos, employees describe a challenging but rewarding workplace. >> either you fit here or you don't. you love it or you don't. >> reporter: but bezos says the
7:16 am
workplace described in the article not only as soulless but says it wouldn't survive in the marketplace, adding "anyone working in a company that really is like the one described in 'the new york times' would be crazy to stay. i know i would leave such a company." and now bezos is encouraging any employee who sees this kind of treatment outlined in the article to come forward, even send him a personal e-mail, robin. >> okay, rebecca, thank you. now to a historymaking moment. two women set to become the first female army rangers ever after conquering one of the most physically and mentally challenging courses on earth. abc's martha raddatz is in washington, has all those details for us. good morning, martha. >> reporter: good morning, robin. the women have not been identified by name, but they are young officers. west point graduates who didn't want to be judged differently than their male colleagues. and they were not. >> all: i want to be an air
7:17 am
borne ranger! >> reporter: they have done it. two women making history earning the elite army ranger tab. >> major. >> sir! >> reporter: there were 19 women who started the grueling combat training course back in april. >> do not touch my barbed wire. >> reporter: candidates are pushed to their physical and mental limits, tackling obstacle courses, scaling mountains. crossing rivers chest deep with fully loaded packs right alongside their fellow male candidates. >> they're going through the exact same thing their male counterparts are. they have to show grit and determination and put one foot in front of the other each day. >> reporter: notoriously tough only 40% of the male ranger students graduate each year. it's all part of an ongoing assessment about opening combat positions currently closed to women. each branch of the military now required to look at how women could be integrated into those direct combat roles, now, two have proven that they have what it takes to enter the all-male ranger ranks.
7:18 am
>> the standards are exactly the same for both male and female ranger students. >> reporter: but while they will graduate friday and forever wear the ranger tab, for now, they are still not allowed to serve as rangers. that is a decision that will be made by the secretary of defense by january. after the services turn in their assessments. but this is a huge first step. robin and george? >> it is a huge first step. some of us are shaking our heads like they've earned this right. they've earned it. they did it. >> it's going to force some change. >> it has to. now to that dangerous air quality in the northwest a result of all those fires, right, ginger? >> you can't miss it in these pictures coming in from the columbia river gorge. on the left side, you can see mt. hood. this is before all the fires. on the right side, that is after. you can't see anything so air quality is beyond that point where you see the alert. and you go, okay. you actually see it in the air. air quality alerts from boise to spokane into parts of eastern oregon then where the smoke has blown north and west of

fra factory there in detroit. trying to get this cat under control. wait till you see what happened next. of course, it was all caught on camera. >> like everything is these days. that is coming up. we begin with the latest on that elite prep school trial. a former student at new hampshire's st. paul school facing sexual assault charges. he say it's part of a pretty shocking tradition at the school. linsey davis tracks it. >> reporter: good morning, george. in the spring of last year, life looked so different for owen labrie. he had plans to attend harvard as an aspiring divinity student. this morning he heads to court accused of rape with the same attorney who recently represented convicted mobster james "whitey" bulger. this morning opening statements begin in the case of 19-year-old owen labrie, charged with sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl when he was a senior at new hampshire's st. paul's school, one of the most elite prep schools in the country. >> traumatic for any citizen to be put on trial for any offense never mind a serious offense.
7:32 am
>> reporter: according to an affidavit obtained by abc affiliate wmur labrie allegedly told detectives about a contest known as the senior salute. something he allegedly described as a long-standing tradition of graduating boys trying to take the virginity of younger girls. labrie allegedly telling detectives he was trying to be number one in the sexual scoring at st. paul's school. but labrie is pleading not guilty, telling police the freshman girl wanted to have sex but he says he had a moment of divine inspiration and did not. >> i take my direction from my client. and he will make the decision whether to testify or not. >> reporter: a jury made up of 11 men and 3 women will hear the case. it may seem a little skewed. 11 males, 3 females on the jury in a rape case? >> you could certainly find women who are going to harshly judge other women, the same way you could find men who would harshly judge other men. >> reporter: st. paul's school tells abc news "current allegations about our culture are not emblematic of our school
7:33 am
or our values." labrie was bound for harvard, an aspiring divinity student. if convicted he could face multiple years in prison and be required to register as a sex offender. today the jury will take a tour of the school and visit the billing and roof where the alleged rape took place. prosecutors point to a set of keys are key evidence. they say labrie used these keys which gave access to the roof and it was a tradition to pass the keys from class to class so that the senior salute activities would continue. >> surprising it wasn't uncovered earlier. >> if it's such a long-standing tradition. you would think. >> thanks, linsey. >> all the right, george. now to a former virginia police officer accused of shooting and killing an unarmed man. seen in this picture just moments before that fatal shot right there. standing in his doorway with his hands up, the former officer now facing an indictment this morning. abc's gio benitez is here with that. good morning, gio. >> reporter: good morning, robin. the family of the man has been waiting for these charges for two years.
7:34 am
and this morning, the officer who fired that deadly shot is behind bars. take a good look at this photo. the man in his own doorway holding his hands up, unarmed. just moments after this was taken, prosecutors say a fairfax county police officer shot and killed the man, 46-year-old father of two john geer. geer's friend watching from the street. >> his hands were resting on top of the door. it looked like he just got tired of holding his hands up there. he began to slide them slowly down the door. you kuld see him palms. when his hands were about face heighters one of the officers shot him in the chest. the first words out of my mouth were, you just shot an unarmed man. >> reporter: this morning two years later a grand jury indicted that former officer who pulled the trigger, adam torres with second-degree murder. >> i can confirm to you that mr. torres was terminated from his employment with the fairfax county police department. he violated our policies and procedures on the use of force. >> reporter: it was august 2013 and geer's girlfriend called police about a domestic dispute.
7:35 am
>> he's throwing everything out of the house of mine. >> who is he? >> my partner that i lived with for the past 24 years. he's destroying my furniture. >> reporter: telling officers there were weapons in the house. police documents show geer himself told officers during the standoff he was unarmed. but that a gun was inside the home. while police and geer were negotiating, officer torres fired once, killing the unarmed geer. >> i don't think what transpired that kind of force was warranted. >> reporter: geer's family already reached a settlement with fairfax county for nearly $3 million. this morning, his father telling abc news, justice is prevailing. the judicial system is going through the process. but it is beyond my comprehension why it took two years to get to this point. and abc news reached out to the officer's legal team and we have not heard back.
7:36 am
meanwhile, officials say they learned a lot since the shooting and admit their legal process took way too long. >> this one is so inexplicable. thank you very much, gio. we turn to an amazing survival story from colorado where a man on a motorcycle crashed after a direct hit from a bolt of lightning. his helmet and a stunned witness saved his life. abc's clayton sandell has the story. >> reporter: eugene villines is expecting to leave the hospital today after a literally shocking brush with death. >> a walking miracle. >> reporter: he was riding his motorcycle home to greeley, colorado, friday, when suddenly, he's struck by lightning. >> if somebody was to get tasered or something, i just don't remember. >> i thought personally he was dead. >> reporter: tucker fortson saw it happened. >> it hit him. and all of a sudden, he just went limp. he went limp on the bike. >> reporter: the bolt sending villines flying into the air. crashing his motorcycle. suffering three broken ribs, a punctured lung. but saved by this helmet. >> you won't catch me going anywhere without it.
7:37 am
>> reporter: and good samaritans including a nurse who rushed in to help. >> just thanks for everything, you know. i have a family. and i appreciate it. >> reporter: villines says he's not sure if he'll climb back on a bike anytime soon. the man who survived both a lightning strike and motorcycle crash not pushing his luck. for "good morning america," clayton sandell, abc news, denver. >> can't blame him for that. >> no. wish him a full, full recovery. let's get over to ginger. and what is that? hail? >> this is hail filling up a backyard in palmer lake, colorado. so it's between colorado springs and denver. it has been a stormy couple of days. you saw the guy hit by lightning there. and they have had a couple more days. now gnat energy is moving to the east. not as far east as this but did see a waterspout on lake michigan. i saw surface video of this. it's amazing. fortunately, nobody hurt there. >> good morning, i am meteorologist mike nicco. pretty gray along the coast. 65. but, city, hot inland.
