7:03 am
a firsthand glimpse at the social services center. >> i'll take a bullet before you do. >> which culminated in this wild chase. dozens of officers closing in on the two gunmen speeding away in a black suv. hundreds of shots fired as the married couple inside the vehicle battled with 20 officers. when it was over the two suspects 28-year-old syed farook, an american board citizen who worked in the building and his wife both dead. it started at 11:00 a.m. when the heavily armed couple entered a conference room at the center which serves the mentality disabled during a training conference. >> multiple shots going off one right after the other. >> reporter: police arriving within four minutes. the entire building complex on

7:06 am
from me. they were about 25 yards away and i was trying to look inside to see but the windows were blacked out. i couldn't see anything inside. >> reporter: the motive of the shooters is still unknown at this hour but even if authorities figure out the why, it will do little to ease the pain of this community. this was the nation's deadliest mass shooting since newtown connecticut which happened three years ago this month. robin. >> some of the most compelling video of the rampage was taken from inside the regional center. you see police there storming the building. it was captured this video by timmy hilliard who was working at the time. he joins us this morning. so good to see you. we're glad that you're okay. where exactly were you when this started to happen? >> i was right above the building three and building two where the video was shot from on
7:07 am
the third floor in one of my colleague's offices. the rest of my colleagues were bordered up in two different conference rooms with doors and tables against the doors and i -- me being a photographer i wanted to see what was going on out in the -- with everything that was going on. i actually took video at the scene, what i saw to show everybody else what was happening. >> describe what you were seeing, timmy. >> i saw two bodies laying in the back of the building, one hunched over on a bench, looked to be male and a female laying flat on the ground and she -- neither were moving. and then within a few minutes the video shows there's s.w.a.t. and everybody else storming in to building three. >> you received a text message alerting you to what was happening? >> yes. one of my colleagues sent me a
7:08 am
text saying there's an active shooting going on. at the time i was thinking maybe there's a person with the gun walking around the facility or the grounds. then i heard a lot of my colleagues running and stomping and crying. so i went to see what was happening. then i heard that there were bodies down and i went to check out the facility. i wanted and had to see what was going on. >> you jumped right into action like that. can you give us an idea about the complex. about the facility and how you were able to get out so quickly and safely. >> building three is more of a housing for auditoriums, facilities, dances, whatever we can do to help with our consumers. at that time with the video i shot there was there was s.w.a.t. and my colleagues went back to the conference rooms and
7:09 am
a pa system said to come out with badges in our hands to let them know we're friendly. as we're heading down we're letting them know that we are part of regional center as well and i was letting them know at the time that there's at least 50 to 100 upstairs that were coming down. >> the authorities acted so quickly and saved so many lives and your video gives us an incredit annual insight into what you and others had to endure. all the best to you. thank you so much. you take care. >> thank you. >> and there are new details just coming in this morning about the two shooters. a husband and wife. he had a good government job and house and new baby. even a gift registry for the baby. abc's matt gutman is where they lived and where the chase started. good morning, matt. >> reporter: good morning, robin. the couple seemed to live a perfectly mundane life in this
7:10 am
middle class community of condos, christmas wreaths on the doors. overnight we heard an explosion behind me. the bomb squad moving in and cracked open the family car and all night federal investigators going in and out of that house trying to determine how and why that couple hatched this plot. co-workers described 28-year-old syed farook seen here as a soft spoken devout muslim who rarely discussed his religion in the office. >> that's nothing i can remember that would lead me to think he may do this type of thing. >> he certainly seemed mild mannered on his dating profile on a website describing himself as allah fearing, calm thoughtful simple man looking for a girl who would wear a hijab. also indicates he's on pakistani
7:11 am
heritage. the health safety and environmenter inspect ter born in america. >> he said he found a wife online from saudi arabia. >> police believe that woman could be his 27-year-old accomplice. the couple had a baby and the office colleagues say the same one the couple targeted wednesday through a baby shower for them. the couple set up a baby registry with target. abc news has confirmed the two dropped their 6-month-old infant off with farook's mother before heading off on that deadly rampage telling his mother they had a doctor's appointment. he reportedly left the building shortly before the office photo in what many described as an agitated state. >> acting nervous and left the building. >> returning with malik and an armload of guns and bombs.
7:12 am
farook's brother-in-law condemning the attacks. >> i have no idea why he would do that. while would he do something like this. i have no idea. i'm in shock myself. >> reporter: expressing his shock and condolences to the families. >> i just cannot express how sad i am for what happened today. >> reporter: of course the couple that seemed so normal left behind their 6-month-old baby. a baffled family and a community rattled as investigators are trying to understand how they amassed all that ammunition and explosives without anybody here knowing it. george. >> we'll get the latest on the investigation live for our viewers in the west from brian ross. senior correspondent pierre thomas and brad. the weapons we just learned all bought legally. >> bought legally. this man had no criminal background to speak of so he could go at any store in the country and buy those weapons.
7:13 am
right now the federal government not ready to declare terrorism. the attorney general just spoke expressing condolences but no indication on motive. >> two weapons bought by the perpetrator and two bought by another party. what are we learning about farook? >> a hybrid workplace jihad. they're investigating employees who survived the shooting and looking to see what they know about him and see about his background. he traveled to saudi arabia where he met his wife. they're exploiting the computers and other social media he may have used to see if he self radicalized. >> it seemed like he had this impulsive angry moment but this was well planned. >> absolutely. took time to get those weapons to acquire them. there is a ten day waiting period at the least in california to buy weapons like that. it reminds investigators what they faced in the ft. hood shooting where he went after
7:14 am
fellow employees. >> and echos of the boston marathon bombings because the shooters could have gone quite far but instead went back home. >> i think for two reasons george. one, they believer they had a clean get away and i think they went back to rearm themselves. maybe other weapons. explosives i think potentially moving on to the next target. >> they weren't going to get there. some of the other unique circumstances here i know the fbi has looked at the mass shootings since 2000 and out of 160 all but two carried out by lone wolves. here a husband and wife koufl. >> this lone wolf scenario we have seen time and time again. one source told me unique i different, husband and wife teaming up. the planning and the sophistication in this has a lot of people baffled this morning. >> unusual that a woman involved. >> absolutely. isis and al qaeda don't allow women to be fighters.
7:15 am
they can't martyr themselves in attacks. so this is very unusual. not in keeping with traditional or normal for al qaeda or isis. >> brad what is the question you want known about the shooters right now? >> george, there's something i would agree with brian that there may be a component of this as workplace violence. i think it's a secondary component. the real key is how were they able to affect actively learn how to shoot these weapons, build explosives. transport and no one knew about it? that tells me somebody trained them how to work and function under the radar. >> they also have to look at the idea that someone else may have bought two weapons. >> exactly. everybody who has been in contact with these people recently is going to get a good look by the fbi. >> this is a man who was comfortable with guns and the culture on his dating sites. he liked to snowboard, work on cars and go in the backyard for target practice with his guns. >> no one thought this was
7:16 am
coming. thank you very much. back to robin. >> those two shooters killed 14 people in the rampage and 17 others injured and we just have been updated on the condition of some of the victims. many of them were taken to the hospital and abc's kayna is there where she has been since yesterday. what is the update? good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you robin. five of the victims were brought here to the hospital and we have learned this morning that three are listed in fair condition and two of them are listed in critical but stable condition all suffering gunshot wounds. >> we know the names of those killed, the 14 killed have not been released. what is the hospital staff telling you about why that's the case. >> it's sgresing. i spoke with the chair of emergency medicine. chef said this is a close-knit community and highly possible that some of her staff actually
7:17 am
knows the victims because many of them worked in the health care system. she does expect that when those names are released it will be a very hard day here. >> no doubt. before you go. there was a bomb threat there at the hospital, too? >> reporter: robin, there sure was. a bomb threat came in hours after the shooting. now they did sweep the building here and surrounding buildings even looking for explosives and were able to clear the bomb threat about an hour after they received it but they have been working under a heightened sense of security at the hospital here. >> incredible conditions they're working under. >> so much chaos yesterday afternoon. now at least 56 mass shootings so far this year. the latest in colorado springs just last friday. we have seen president obama speak after so many of them and he addressed this latest rampage last ght. jon karl is at the white house with that. >> reporter: this is the fifth time just in the last five months that the president has
7:18 am
had to come out and to talk about a mass shooting here in the united states. he was in an interview just as the news was breaking. he said the shootings have become too common and he said it is time for congress to finally pass tougher gun laws. >> we have a pattern now of mass shooters in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world and there's some steps we could take not to eliminate everyone of these mass shootings but to improve the odds that they don't happen as frequently. >> reporter: he has called the recurrence of these shootings the greatest frustration of his presidency. george. >> certainly seem that is way. thanks very much. strong storm brewing in the northwest ginger. >> schools are closed through washington state. you're looking at the warnings right now but we have got to get to the mild cities.

you are looking live at the scene at the latest deadly rampage to stun our nation. that is the inland region center in san bernardino, california, a center to help the mentally disabled. >> two people, the shooters, family members say they're a husband and wife who have a 6-month-old baby opened fire during a work training event killing 14, injuring 17 others before they were killed in a shoot-out with police. amy is on the scene for us this morning and joins us again. good morning, amy. >> reporter: good morning, robin it is certainly a sobering site behind me. when you take a closer look at this building you can still see the vehicle that is so many people left behind. it's just a reminder of the chaos unfolded. many of those people were either
7:31 am
bussed out to where they live and the most unfortunate of cases some were taken via ambulance. now over to my right we have been watching throughout the night the fbi working fevererishly to try and figure out what happened here. what the motivation was. the command center has been growing as the sun has risen and they are working with local and state police. the atf and homeland security in addition to the fbi. we have been watching that actually grow throughout the day today. here's what we know about syed farook. he had been working in this building for the past five years. his fellow employees called him quiet and some have said he left this work training event angry and showed back up 20 minutes later with his wife and they were both armed. i just spoke with an eyewitness who said he saw what unfolded as so many people streamed out of this building in chaos and
7:32 am
panic. he saw two people walk out to this black suv and walked calmly and that's how he knew that he was actually looking at the killers. it was a harrowing scene. as we know now a shootout ensued and police were able to get both of them. now, much of what we saw was captured by a helicopter, a news chopper. and our matt gutman has his story this morning. >> reporter: good morning, amy. i'm standing ten miles away where that spectacular chase began. we were on the ground all day yesterday watching s.w.a.t. teams race back and forth across this city but couldn't really keep up with it. the only way to see what was going on in the city was from the sky. that chopper providing those incredible and grizzly images. these are the gripping moments that captured the nation's attention. >> officers running here. chasing and now on foot. look at all those units.
7:33 am
>> reporter: police and s.w.a.t. teams closing in on two suspects. >> got a graphic situation. a black suv and long rifle in the street. you can see bls blood. the suspect is down. >> reporter: and every tense moment from the air. >> the mass casualty shooting with this many victims over my 25 years i can't remember anything this tragic. >> this was a fierce gun battle. >> reporter: the helicopter reporter offering the detailed and vivid reporting. >> my law enforcement career has helped me try to get people different perspective and make it more educational for the public. >> that is a long gun. an hk or ar type weapon. >> he has covered live sports and worked in reality tv production even positioned the chopper to avoid showing the very real and graphic scene
7:34 am
unfolding. >> don't want to get too close because that is a gory scene. we don't show the suspect. >> we can maneuver the chopper without divulging the gruesome scene. >> showing that incredible expertise from the sky, being able to navigate that helicopter and describe everything he saw at the same time. now what mostly hatches in these mass shooting rampages is the perpt traitors end up committing suicide and don't end up hearing their stories but in this case that couple got away. they were clearly trying to head somewhere well armed with assault rifles, possibly explosives. police are still trying to figure out where they were going and what they may have been plotting next. >> we're joined by the mayor of san bernardino. thank you for joining us. all of us are thinking of you and your community praying for the victims and their families. how is the community coping this morning?
7:35 am
>> good morning. we appreciate your concern. our city is very saddened by this tragic crime that has been perpetrated against our community and we are doing all that we can to make sure that our community continues to stay safe. our police department, fire department and all the surrounding agencies have come together. this is an excellent response. they responded as quickly as they could to secure the area. they've done all they could to make sure this crime is appropriately and brought to an end as soon as possible. >> it was an overwhelming and swift response. the police getting there within four minutes. what's the situation on the ground this morning, both at the center and across your community? will anything be closed today? will you try to get back to normal? >> i believe there will be some government facilities that will be closed today. our police department is still actively investigating this crime and they will continue to

7:42 am
steps you can take that may help you survive. >> you need to react. the first five seconds of an active shooter incident is paramount. >> reporter: workplace safety consultant john bruener says in moments of crisis our brains delivery function can be overwhelmed. on the other hand our muscle memory, things we've practiced over and over can kick into overdrive and that's how you can save your life. option one, run. >> fear in this situation, elizabeth, and you know the shooter is pretty far away right here. we have an exit. we'll tell people if we have a shooter down the hall let's exit over here. >> reporter: if there's no quick way out use anything to create a distraction. a fire extinguisher can create a literal smokescreen. >> if you train for these situations you will strengthen that muscle memory. >> reporter: like the fire drill, right. we should be doing drills? >> we're getting to that stage. >> reporter: say you're trapped and there is no way to run?
7:43 am
option two, hide. in the bathroom without a lock. bruener says improvise by using a belt to slow down entry. if you have to hide inside an office. >> we lock this door. have any secondary devices, these will assist you. >> like a doorstop? >> like a doorstop, absolutely. >> reporter: what if you're cornered in your office and the gunman finds your hiding spot. >> if you're hearing him bust through this door you have to quit the hide and you have to attack. >> reporter: option three, fight. the minute he comes in the door i go at him. >> you need to be aggressive and fight for your life. >> look around for anything that could be used as a weapon. taking those scissors and what do i do? go for their throat. >> you go for any piece of body you can. maybe you need to stab him in the shoulder. maybe you need to stab him in the face. it becomes survival. you have to develop a survival warrior mind-set. >> our thanks to elizabeth for that. great suggestions. we'll bring back former fbi

special agent and abc news consultant brad garrett. so, run, hide, fight, call someone. what are your suggestions, brad? >> i'd rather you not call someone. if so place your phone on silent, send a message say i'm okay. please communicate with the police but the real key, robin is to keep your wits about you. if you're hiding, you may have to move. >> you say not to call someone. we saw so many yesterday sending their loved ones text messages and some of them were being interviewed as they were giving these text messages from loved ones that are trapped inside and so if you are watching and you know somebody that's in that building, should you call? should you text them what should someone do from the outside? >> well, they should actually call the police. you really need to have lines of communication straightened 0 out with family, friends, loved ones, et cetera that you're only going to do minimal communication because the fear is obviously someone's going to
7:45 am
hear you and you can compromise where you're hiding. >> but you know people just want to -- they want to know that their loved one is okay but that's good to know that may not be the right way to go in contacting them like that. >> correct. the real key is have them communicate with the police. >> all right, brad, thank you very much. all things hopefully we will not have to do but good to have that in mind. coming up, so many sharing their grief and solidarity with the victims of california shootings. messages from amy schumer, others, gabby giffords and more coming up next.

good morning, america. it's 8:00 a.m. and brand-new developments overnight about the man and woman behind the shocking shooting heavily armed and in tactical gear inside the facility for the disabled. >> all of a sudden gunfire starts. she said everyone hit the ground, tried to get under tables. >> this morning, new details about the victims as their families speak out. >> she just said that she was in a room. she locked herself up. there were shooters. >> police race to clear explosives and a search for answers at this hour to the big questions, what was their motive. >> we have not ruled out terrorism. >> is this the new normal in america? we're live in san bernardino and times square with the latest right now on "good morning america."
8:01 am
>> we do say good morning, america, on this thursday morning. george and i are joined by sara and michael and, of course, we'll have the latest on the california rampage, new details as they come in, the 14 people killed, 17 injured in that. >> the shooter is a husband and his wife killed in that explosive shoot-out with police. they left behind a 6-month-old baby. and our full coverage begins with amy on the scene in san bernardino. good morning, amy. >> reporter: good morning. we are here in front of the building where the rampage took place in a site, all the cars still in the parking lot. a reminder of the chaos of yesterday. people who left everything behind running for their lives and running from a man who many worked with for the past five years, a man who returned to the work event with his wife heavily armed and on a mission to kill. a firsthand glimpse inside the terror at the social services
8:02 am
center. >> i'll take a bullet before you do, that's for damn sure. >> reporter: which culminated in this wild chase. officers closing in on the two gunmen speeding away in a black suv. hundreds of shots fired as the married couple inside the vehicle battled with 20 offic s officers. the two suspects, 28-year-old syed farook, an american citizen and his wife tashfeen malik both dead. it started at 11:00 a.m. when the heavily armed couple entered a conference room at the inland regional center which serves the mental tiff disabled during a work training conference. >> multiple shots one right after the other. >> police arriving on the scene within four minutes the entire three building complex on lockdown and many watching from their windows. >> making entry through the back
8:03 am
door. >> we have several down in the conference. >> i need medical in here immediately. >> hundreds of workers evacuated with their hands in the air. police say farook was attending a company party but left under angry circumstances only to quickly return dressed in dark clothing armed with assault rifles and hand guns opening fire. >> he was acting nervous, left the building, 20 minutes later the shooting began. >> reporter: i spoke with a witness who saw the couple leaving the building. what was their demeanor? >> calm, collected, very slow moving. not in a hurry. >> everyone else was running and they weren't. >> they weren't. that was what caught my attention. as the vehicle started to pull away it actually headed directly towards me where i was at. i raised up and pointed my firearm at them in case that was them and they immediately turned left away from me. they were about maybe 25 yards away and i was trying to look
8:04 am
inside to see, but the windows were blacked out. couldn't see anything inside. >> it's worth noting there is a huge federal presence here on site. we have been watching the fbi working at their command posts throughout the night and now into the morning along with many other federal agencies including the atf and homeland security. they are all working together to try and figure out what the motive here was for this deadly rampage. was it terrorism? that is the question. robin. >> amy, thank you. abc's matt gutman is 15 minutes away from where amy was and where the police chase started leading to the shootout with the killers. matt, brand new details? >> reporter: what's most startling about this couple is how normal they seemed living in this middle class community with trimmed lawns and christmas wreaths on the door. he worked at the san bernardino department of health as a health inspector, been there five years and well enough liked by his colleagues that they threw him a baby shower.
8:05 am
$70,000 he made a year. they were middle class. his wife had registered for the baby shower at target asking for such things as diapers and baby wash and infant car seat. he was on muslim dating sites. he liked to snowboard. but investigators are trying to pin down how and if they became radicalized. people are are trying to figure out how this couple of shooters lived among them in plain sight. robin. >> answers we want. people need to know the answers to those questions he just posed. >> we're going to turn to brian ross. right now. brian, we were talking earlier in the last hour. this is some kind of hybrid workplace but the person was also radicalized? >> exactly. kind of workplace jihad. tracking down by the fbi. any possible connection of terrorism. they're looking at his travels to saudi arabia where he met his
8:06 am
wife. also now exploiting his computers and seized them at his home looking to see if he was online that would have let to his radicalization. they're talking to the coworkers who survived. he targeted people he worked with in arevenge. he appeared to be a normal american. he liked snowboarding, working on cars and liked guns. he was comfortable with the gun culture, on an online dating service. he liked to go in the backyard and do target practice. >> no evidence he was directed from overseas in any way? >> nothing like that at all. in fact the involvement of his wife would suggest both isis and al qaeda frown on the use of women in any way as warriors or fighters. >> thanks brian. >> we have much more still ahead here on "gma." family members speaking out. how one man managed to contact loved ones after he was shot and the latest on his conditions and
8:07 am
new concerns this morning about workplace violence after that horrific shooting. how to cope with all the fears. >> all that and a lot more coming up on "gma" right here in times square. ♪ [makes siren noise] i'm watching that. eew. every christmas is memorable. but a gift from kay jewelers... makes it unforgettable. because it's more than a gift. it's a memory she'll wear forever. >> announcer: this is an abc news special report. california shooting rampage. now reporting, george stephanopoulos. >> and we're coming on the air right now because president obama is about to speak from the oval office on this massacre in san bernardino, california yesterday. two shooters going in to the
8:08 am
inland regional center killing 14, 17 injured. we're here with brian ross. we're learning a lot more about the arsenal this couple put together. >> reporter: that's right, george. significant details this morning. one, that they bought the two pistols they had but a third party bought the two assault rifles. >> all legally. >> all legally but those are not legally sold in california as according to two senior law enemkpae enforcement officials. they found other explosive devices found at the home and in the vehicle. >> clearly as the sheriff said yesterday, this was a very well prepared attack. this couple was on a mission. >> reporter: and the additional explosives pointed more and more towards terrorism. >> president obama about to speak in the oval office. just a few days ago we learned from colorado springs of a mass
8:09 am
shooting there. now president obama will speak one more time from the oval office. yesterday a tragedy occurred in san bernardino, and as i said in the immediate aftermath, our first order of business is to send our thoughts and prayers to the families of those who have been killed and to pray for a speedy recovery for those who were injured during this terrible attack. i had a chance to speak with mayor davis of san bernardino, and i thanked law enforcement in that city for their timely and professional response. i indicated to mayor davis that the entire country is thinking about that community and thanked him and his office for the way that they have been able to manage an extraordinarily difficult situation with calm
8:10 am
and clarity and very much appreciated the coordination that's been taking place between local law enforcement and the fbi investigators. at this stage, we do not yet know why this terrible event occurred. we do know that the two individuals who were killed were equipped with weapons and appeared to have access to additional weaponry at their homes. but we don't know why they did it. we don't know at this point the extent of their plans. we do not know their motivations. and i just received a briefing from fbi director comey as well as attorney general lynch indicating the course of their
8:11 am
investigation. at this point this is now an fbi investigation that's been done in cooperation and consultation with local law enforcement. it is possible that this was terrorist related, but we don't know. it's also possible that this was workplace related. and until the fbi has been able to conduct what are going to be a large number of interviews, until we understand the nature of the workplace relationship between the individual and his superiors because he worked with the organization where this terrible shooting took place, until all the social media and electronic information has been exploit
8:12 am
exploited, we're just not going to be able to answer those questions. but what i can assure the american people is that we're going to get to the botto of this and that we are going to be vigilant as we always are in getting the facts before we issue any decisive judgments in terms of how this occurred. more broadly, as i said yesterday, we see the prevalence of these kinds of mass shootings in this country, and i think so many americans sometimes feel as if there's nothing we can do about it. we are fortunate to have an extraordinary combination of law enforcement and intelligence and military that work every single day to keep us safe, but we can't just leave it to our
8:13 am
professionals to deal with the problem of these kinds of horrible killings. we all have a part to play. i do think that as the investigation moves forward, it's going to be important for all of us, including our legislators to see what we can do to make sure that when individuals decide that they want to do somebody harm, we're making it a little harder for them to do it. because right now it's just too easy. we're going to have to, i think, search ourselves as a society to make sure that we can take basic steps that would make it harder, not impossible but harder, for individuals to get access to weapons. so, there will be, i think, a press conference later today led
8:14 am
by the attorney general. director comey will continue to brief not only the press but also members of congress about the course of the investigation. our expectation is that this may take some time before we're able to sort it all through. there may be mixed motives involved in this which makes the investigation more complicated. but rest assured that we will get to the bottom of this and in the meantime, once again, i want to offer our deepest condolences to those who have been effected by this terrible tragedy and for those who have been injured, we hope that they get well quickly and that they're able to be back together with their families. thank you very much, everybody. president obama from the oval office saying we still don't know why these shooters set off this rampage.
8:15 am
they might have had mixed motives he said, both some workplace concerns but also an element of jihad as well. also announcing that the fbi is taking over this investigation. i want to go to jon karl for more on that. the president very careful there, jon, suggesting we don't know everything we need to know right now but the intervention of the fbi suggests a national security aspect to this investigation. >> reporter: it sure does. it suggests they believe there is a good possibility this was terrorism related or, as the president said, some kind of a mixed motive. but the fbi in the lead as they would in any terrorism-related investigation. george, this is the 17th time that president obama has come before the nation to talk in the wake of a mass shooting. the first one way back in 2009 with the ft. hood shooting. i've seen him react with anger. i've seen him react with great sadness. here it was interesting to see him, first of all, great caution in terms of what happened, but also a weariness, almost a tired, weariness with this,
8:16 am
calling for more action on this issue of guns. i expect we'll hear more of this going forward. i do know that the white house is going through what they are calling a serious scrub to look at what possible executive actions the president could take to limit access to guns outside of any congressional action which is very unlikely, and that is ongoing right now. you can really hear the weariness in the president's voice, i thought as he talked about this. >> you certainly could. we're going to be standing by for a press conference by the san bernardino police authority, sheriff's authorities, around noon eastern time. we're now going to return to your regular back now on "good morning america." we heard from president obama in the oval office. i'm joined by brian ross. brian, the president re-enforcing some of the
8:17 am
information you have been picking up that this couple had really built up an assenle in their home. >> he talked about the additional weaponry found in the home we're told by senior law enforcement officials they found a number of additional explosive devices they had built suggesting a kind of sophistication that goes far beyond somebody who is angry at the workplace. pipe bombs are the beginning and some weapons found at the house they raided and also in the vehicle which they were attempting to flee suggesting they were off to another target somewhere. >> but the president picking up on some information that perhaps and we don't know, this was kind of a hybrid, the person had come kind of workplace complaint but also radicalized as well. >> exactly. not so simple talking about the mixed motive which he said would complicate the investigation. they have to talk to all of the
8:18 am
employees who survived who he apparently tar getted. we talked to some who sat right next to him during the meeting which was a training session turned into a holiday luncheon. this person left the scene to go to the bathroom and he said farook left and came back to open fire as well as the president suggested they're now exploiting his computers, telephones to see was he in touch with anyone overseas. he had recently travelled to sai arabia where he met his wife and brought her back here. was he in touch? did he self-radicalize somehow with watching tapes or videos online. >> and the chief reported someone else might have been involved in some way. they say up to four weapons. >> that's right. >> two hand guns legally and the assault rifles were bought by another party. >> a very intriguing piece of information. the two pistols were bought by the couple by the more serious sem semiautomatic long guns, the rifles were bought by somebody
8:19 am
else. california does not permit the sale of assault-style rifles. they get an a-plus rating from gun control groups but the states around get ds or fs and there those weapons can be bought. who bought those more powerful weapons and how did they get in the hands of this couple? >> let's go to matt gutman on the scene in san bernardino since yet. we are expecting to hear from the sheriff's office within the hour. >> reporter: that's right. we haven't heard an update since late last night. we hope to hear more about the nature of the guns, where the investigation is. you can probably see the line of cars behind me parked right there. those are not residents' cars. we talked about the involvement of federal authorities and agencies. they have been here all night. earlier we heard an explosion from the house. police moved in with a robot. the bomb squad went in after ramming down the door. there is still a very active
8:20 am
investigation of that house and possibly it could yield clues about the motives and future plots by this couple. they got away. they were clearly trying to go somewhere armed with those long guns, handguns, possibly explosives when they were cornered by police. perhaps we'll hear more about what they were plotting if they were plotting anything else. >> you know, the most chilling details that we have been able to pick up overnight, the couple has a 6-month-old daughter. they left her with another family member saying they were going to a doctor's appointment. >> reporter: that's right. they went to an eye doctor's appointment leaving their 6-month-old with farook's mother. it's unusual that this is a middle class neighborhood and this couple seemed to live a perfectly normal life. almost mundane here. he made $70,000 a year. as a public health worker. a health inspector. it's unclear what happened to
8:21 am
this couple. everybody who lived here seems to be shocked by what's going on and people who knew them in the health department also, this is a small community and that health department is also pretty small community, people are absolutely rattled in this community by what happened, george. >> the idea that people can build up this kind of arson nal without anyone knowing at all. >> to be undetected. not communications to be picked up by the fbi and carry this out quietly and silently. it will cause the fbi to reassess how do they keep an eye on people destined to attack whether it is workplace violence or this hybrid of workplace jihad. >> and the investigation being led by james comby of the fbi. loretta lynch also involved. we'll be hearing from the sheriff's department as well but we'll go to ginger for an update on the weather.
8:22 am
ginger. >> that's exactly right, robin. we're doing out here out here and groups of friends meeting together. good morning here and a pretty picture from mt. raynear. looks like pancakes. also a chill briefly friday morning that reaches into the deep south and then the mild air is back. new york state in t good morning, i am meteorologist mike nicco with the bay area forecast. we are on storm watch. get ready to get wet and windy today. more chance of rain through the extended. slightly warmer highs next week. at 9:00, we have a steady burst of moderate-to-heavy rain moving through the north bay hit the heart of the bay between 10:00 and noon and the south bay and inland east bay between 11:00 and 1:00. by the evening commute we are about scattered

>> sara, it is a family affair. we have grandmother. granddaughters. we'll go into you for now. >> good luck. we turn to some other news this morning. sandra bullock making headlines, the oscar winner has adopted a second child, a little girl who was in foster care. shedding light on the growing number of kids in the foster care system. mara schiavocampo is right here with that. good morning, mara. >> reporter: speaking of family all around and there have been reports for some time the star was expanding her family and now it's confirmed. bullock telling "people" magazine there is now pink and glitter in her home. it's one of her most famous roles. >> are you going to protect the family, michael? >> yes, ma'am. >> reporter: actress sandra bullock taking home oscar gold in 2010 for playing foster mom leigh anne tuohy opening her home to michael oher in "the blindside". >> we would like to know if you'd like to become part of this family. >> reporter: revealing her real life has taken a similar turn
8:24 am
sharing in this week's "people" magazine she's adopted a child from foster care. 3 1/2-year-old laila. though bullock is keeping that little face private for now, she is opening up about her daughter telling the magazine there's no doubt in my mind that she was supposed to be here. the star first became a mom in 2010 after adopting now 5-year-old louis. >> how is louis? >> delicious, beautiful. >> reporter: now bullock says she hopes laila's adoption will shed light on the number of kids in foster homes. there are 415,000 children in the u.s. foster care system. that number steadily increasing over the last three years. and the number of children leaving the system steadily decreasing. >> it's a very big deal that a celebrity as large as sandra bullock adopted through foster care because what it's doing is telling the adoption community
8:25 am
there is another avenue that hasn't been as explored. >> reporter: the levee family think it's a big deal too. >> okay. >> foster care is important and these kids need homes. >> reporter: of their seven kids, five are adopted. one from the u.s. foster care system like laila and they're thrilled one of hollywood's biggest actresses is speak out on an issue that hits so close to home. >> you don't have to be her to be a foster and adoptive parent. you don't have to have the money that she has and the lifestyle that she has. all you have to do is just be willing. >> reporter: as for bullock's new addition, she says the siblings are already close. adding "i can tell you absolutely the exact right children came to me at the exact right time." and we're also happy for her. bullock says she fostered laila for some time but didn't want to go public until the adoption was final. anyone interested can get more
