7:02 am
morning. police have identified the suspect as nasim aghdam, a woman who lived in california and frequently used youtube. >> her family says she was angry at the company. she killed herself after opening fire on three employees, one of them now in critical condition and matt gutman is at youtube headquarters with the latest. good morning, matt. >> reporter: good morning, george. police chief just told us they are wrapped up with their forensic investigation. they're focusing on the 39-year-old female suspect, she apparently drove here from southern california, with a gun in her car and a vendetta against youtube. apparently she had been complaining that they had been censored her and limited her viewers. officers nearby mountain view, california, found her sleeping in her car. they alerted her family. her family tried to warn authorities. by then, it was too late. law enforcement officials say
7:03 am
this is the woman, nasim aghdam, who stormed into an employee patio in san bruno, california, shooting three employees before turning the gun on herself. tbone after another, boom, boom prolific youtube user. >> hated the company saying they were censuring her content. >> i'm being disatinimn oed >> reporter: she had a youtube channel which posted ab workout videos and many of them in farsi. [ speaking a foreign language ] >> reporter: her brother says her family reported her missing over the weekend and claims they told police about her deep-seated resentment towards youtube. >> she had a problem with youtube. so we called the cop again and told him that she might -- there's a reason she went all the way from san diego to there. >> active shooter. at 901 cherry. >> reporter: the first call for
7:04 am
help came in at 12:46 local time. >> this is crazy. we're on lockdown. >> reporter: two minutes later first responders arrived. this officer bursting out of his vehicle with that long gun, a youtube employee right there on the staircase using his key to let the officer into the complex. >> it was very chaotic. as you can imagine. >> reporter: police moving forward finding hundreds of youtube employees, their hands raised, searching each of them. the wounded scrambling out of the youtube complex. some of them still bleeding. >> inside the carl's jr. in san bruno. medical aid. >> reporter: good smarn tans starching the wounds with napkins from nearby weapons in we acted out of instinct and tried to do what we can to help just kind of stop the bleeding and wait for paramedics to come. and, you know, just to do what anybody else would do. >> reporter: youtube's ceo issuing a statement on twitter writing, there are no words to describe how horrible it was to
7:05 am
have an active shooter at youtube today. our deepest gratitude to law enforcement and first responders for their rapid response. >> today it feels like the entire community of youtube and all of the employees were victims of this crime. >> reporter: now three of her victims remain hospitalize this morning. two of them are either critical or serious condition. now, this shooting triggered an enormous numbers of conspiracy theories. what's stunning about this particular incident, social media companies squashed those rumors right away. twitter going and deleting a lot of these messages online in realtime. the company says it takes this approach during these situations misnaming people could put people in harm's way. joining us is san bruno police chief ed barberini. good to have you on the show this morning. first and foremost, the alleged shooter had recently railed against youtube. her brother and her father said she hated the company.
7:06 am
what are you learning about a motive this morning? >> well, obviously we know that -- we're learning that miss aghdam had a problem or a problem with the policies or practices that youtube had employed that was her opinion. so we do understand that point. we don't know exactly or specifically what those concerns were and we have investigators now who are taking numerous steps to kind of finalize that and pinpoint exactly what her concerns were so we can clearly identify the motive. we have a pretty good idea, but we'd like to get some more information before we can definitively say exactly what that motive was but obviously she was upset with some of the practices or policies that the company had employed. >> now, chief, both her father and brother reported her missing. both reportedly told authorities that she might be going to youtube. they clearly saw this coming. was youtube ever warned? >> we know that she was reported missing by her family in san
7:07 am
diego on the 31st of march and that she was located in a community about 30 miles south of us early tuesday morning. i don't know what concerns were conveyed to that police department or how or where those concerns were relayed to. so, that is something we're looking into. >> is it a big misstep if youtube was not warned? >> i think it's premature to jump to those conclusions. we don't know exactly how communication was relayed to the local police department down there, and if so, how it was transferred to wherever it needed to be transferred. we just don't know those answers. it's about 4:00 a.m. locally. >> what do we know about the gun and whether it was legally obtained? >> there's nothing to suggest that was -- that it's not legally -- that it was not legally obtained. so, at this point we don't have any information of whether it was obtained in a manner that
7:08 am
was outside the law. we just don't have that information but there's nothing to suggest that it wasn't. >> rifle, handgun, semiautomatic. what can you tell us? >> it was a semiautomatic handgun, a pistol. >> and it took authorities just two minutes to arrive on the scene, chief. how vital was that? >> well, i can't emphasize how critical it is in reacting to instances like these, typical or active shooter situations that we're continuing to see. it's critical that we arrive in a timely manner and then once we're here that we act swiftly and effectively and i could not be more proud of the handful of within two minutes. not only the timeliness of their arrival but the way they acted when they did arrive. as folks were fleeing from the scene, there were officers
7:09 am
running directly towards where they believed the threat to be in order to identify that threat putting themselves in harm's way which is our job however it's sometimes easier said than done and it was a chaotic scene but their first priority was to enter the building, identify the threat and do what they could to remedy that. and i think the timeliness of the response in this case and their actions probably limited the opportunity of our suspect in this case to even inflict more damage. >> yes, it could have been so much worse. chief barberini, we thank you so much for joining us. george. >> thank you, paula. we have more breaking news overnight. just hours ago china announced it was imposing $50 billion in tariffs on american exports like soybean, tobacco, airplanes, retaliation for the $50 billion in tariffs that president trump announced yesterday already seeing a big reaction in financial markets. want to bring in rebecca jarvis. good morning, rebecca. >> good morning, george. this is the exact same kind of tit-for-tat retaliation that we had feared about with the announcement of these new tariffs. you have 106 new tariffs announced overnight by china on
7:10 am
everything, from soybeans to cars to air planes, to orange juice, and there are major impacts potentially out there for the u.s. consumer so, for example, jobs, u.s. companies like general motors, ford and boeing, if these tariffs take effect see their products hit with higher tariffs, that means u.s. jobs down the line because these are companies that sell a lot of goods to china, farmers here in the united states could be hit especially hard, especially on soybeans, about a third of the u.s. soybean crop currently goes to china. those tariffs all of a sudden can put weight on demand that has ang impact on farm jobs and finally, prices. when you see tariffs you should always think prices are going up and not just in the place that's getting the new tariffs but around the world. this really could have an impact on both u.s. consumers as well as chinese consumers and we've already seen it have an impact on stocks that have sold off on the fears of what might be a trade war. >> that's the fear. the question is if. both sides have announced these tariffs. will they actually happen? >> the chances of that are
7:11 am
probably relatively small because already china has already filed a dispute with the wto. that will be a negotiation down the road. both sides are very likely at the table now negotiating because these have yet to take effect and won't for many weeks or even months. >> thanks very much. let's get more on this from our chief white house correspondent jon karl and, jon, this is one of three announcements from the president yesterday. all echoing the nationalist themes of his campaign. also said he wants to send troops down to secure the border with mexico. >> reporter: and that was a proposal, george, that the president just kind of came out with during a meeting with the baltic leaders here at the white house yesterday. it caught his own top advisers by surprise. it caught the military by surprise. his suggestion that he would send the military down to the mexican border to help secure the border. george, i am told that this is something that was discussed in kind of theoretical form a week ago when the president was told he does have the authority to activate the national guard. but as you know, it's a limited authority. the national guard cannot apprehend people at the border. >> at the same time at those
7:12 am
same meetings the president also said he wants to bring troops home from syria soon. that's at odds with administration policy. >> reporter: it is at odds with administration policy. it is quite consistent with what he said during the campaign, you know, he always talked about america first, and he even floated the idea of bringing troops home from south korea, but at the very time the president was saying that, there were top u.s. officials, defense officials and state department officials in washington at another event saying that the u.s. remained committed to syria including military commitment to syria. >> okay, jon karl, thanks very much. paula. >> thanks, george. now to new developments in the russia investigation. there is a new report in "the washington post" that the special counsel has told president trump's lawyers that he remains under investigation but he is not a criminal target at this point. our chief justice correspondent pierre thomas has the latest on all of this from washington. pierre, good morning to you. >> reporter: paula, good morning. "the post" is reporting that the president's attorneys have been told by the special counsel that
7:13 am
he's under investigation but not yet a criminal target. which typically means investigators have concluded there is firm evidence that a suspect has committed a crime so the president now faces a complicated situation and must decide whether he will submit to an interview with special counsel bob mueller. he is still under investigation and that interview could possibly put mr. trump in jeopardy if the president's testimony does not line up with the facts of mr. mueller's probe. and remember, the special counsel has already gotten five guilty pleas in connection with false statements made to investigators so, paula, the president has a big decision to make. >> he certainly does. i know his aides are concerned that mueller is trying to bait him to do this interview but, pierre, we have our first sentencing in the mueller investigation. what can you tell us about the dutch lawyer alex van de zwaan who pleaded guilty to lying to the special counsel's team. >> reporter: that's right. alexander van de zwaan is going to pay a $20,000 fine and spend a month in prison for lying to investigators and destroying e-mails in connection with contacts he had with former trump campaign officials, paul manafort and rick gates. another sign that mr. mueller takes any false statements
7:14 am
extremely seriously, paula. >> certainly does. to be continued, pierre, thanks for your reporting. michael. >> all right, thank you, paula. now to that severe weather with 18 states in its path. the calendar says april but winter weather warnings are in place across the midwest an tornadoes are tearing through the heartland. abc's alex perez is in louisville, kentucky, with the very latest. good morning, alex. >> reporter: good morning, michael. this was a fast-moving storm. you can see how powerful it was. completely ripping this structure to pieces. now just a pile of wood. overnight, severe weather striking the heartland as 60-mile-per-hour winds in houston, texas, blowing over this hangar. [ sirens ] the system spinning up at least eight reported tornadoes in zenia, ohio, roofs torn off homes. >> i don't know how we will move the rest of our stuff out. >> reporter: just ten miles
7:15 am
away, this building decimated. >> what's going on? >> we are stuck in this water out here on this road in loveland. >> reporter: in nearby loveland, fast-moving floodwaters stranding drivers and in grove city, it was a race against time for first responders as strong winds downed these live power lines leaving a teen trapped in his car for hours. >> i knew that if i got out of that car it was a pretty high chance if i touched something i wasn't going to end up too well. >> reporter: the heavy downpour in indiana ripping apart and washing away this road. the entire region battling scenes of major flooding, damaging winds and large hail. and this storm is not done yet. now zeroing in on parts of the east coast where it's expected to create some problems there today as well. michael. >> all right. thank you so much, alex. we're going to turn now to the celebration of dr. martin luther king jr.'s life. this morning marks the 50th anniversary of his assassination. he was shot on the balcony of the lorraine motel in memphis, tennessee, in 1968. americans across the country are
7:16 am
participating in events to celebrate his legacy. one of them is taking place at king's grave site in atlanta. abc's steve osunsami is there this morning. good morning, steve. >> reporter: good morning to you, michael. we're coming to you from the king center right in front of dr. king's gravesite where dr. king and his wife are buried. there are a number of events today here in atlanta and memphis all marking the half a century since the civil rights icon was killed. last night in memphis, at the mason temple, king's children spoke from the same pulpit where he delivered that i've been the mountaintop sermon. hard to overstate how important he was and at the height of his nonviolent work he was not the beloved american that he is today in many corners. this evening his surviving children plan to ring a bell 39 times just after 7:00 tonight exactly where i'm standing. king was 39 years old when he was assassinated at the lorraine motel in memphis. this will be the first time here in atlanta that we've seen his three surviving children
7:17 am
together publicly in some time. it is an emotional day for the three of them. there are marches planned from coast to coast and thousands are expected here today. michael. >> all right, thank you so much, steve. as you said very emotional for everyone especially the family on this 50th anniversary. >> so few americans had the impact of martin luther king jr. >> will probably never see that again. april 4th. not only talking about severe weather, but snow. minneapolis seeing nine inches of snow. the most amount they've seen in april since 1984. over 400 accidents across the state and 32 people injured and more snow on the way. strong winds behind the system moving through the northeast today. another pulse of potentially snow across the great lakes and northeast. friday, very strong progressive jet stream and by the time saturday rolls around it should be cold enough again to potentially see some white on the weather map, including d.c. up the i-95 corridor, in through new york and boston. a long ways out but a chance for chilly weather and snow.
7:18 am

we're going to keep showing these pictures until spring arrives and the cherry blossoms in washington, d.c. peak bloom expected to be this weekend. the festival well in hand right now with the parade a week from saturday. but as we mentioned there may be some snow falling. >> those are real pictures now. >> those are real pictures right now. could be different this weekend. >> we know it's not your fault but since you deliver it, it just makes us kind of a little uneasy with you right now. >> okay, thank you for saying that. very diplomatic of you. >> don't blame the messenger. we try not to. coming up, the latest on that shooting at youtube headquarters. and the woman behind it. the rants online and her encounter with police the night before the shooting. and what we're now learning about that aspiring pastor killing his wife blaming it on cold medicine. from scandalous romance, to ridiculous plot twists.

7:32 am
shots rang out. they're focused on that 39-year-old suspect, nasim aghdam, she apparently drove here from southern california, bearing a gun and vendetta against youtube. now she had been a very frequent poster on youtube. videos of her doing abworkout and other posts in farsi. she had complained about the company censoring her. limited the number of views that she got on her youtube channel officers 30 miles away from fond her sleeping in her car, they alerted her family. at that point family tried to warn authorities. but it was apparently too late. now images you see of those
7:33 am
upturned chairs, and hundreds of employees fleeing a peaceful complex with is becoming too common. >> 160 recent mass shootings only 6 of the shooters, just 4% were woman. now, her victims, three of them remain hospitalized. one of them in critical condition. another in serious condition. paula. >> just 4%. matt gutman from the scene, thank you. we want to bring in abc news contributor and former fbi agent brad garrett. brad, good morning to you. first and foremost, we just heard how rare it is to see a female shooter, just 4%. why is it so uncommon? >> because historically, paula, females have been in the passive role in crime. in other words, they might drive the vehicle. they might move things around. they may hold the money. but now they've become more
7:34 am
mainstream and actually participating in violent crime. >> and women actually commit far fewer violent crimes than men but you say there has been an increase recently. how so? >> substantially. i think it's because women now are accepted more in the mainstream. they're obviously in more important jobs. you see it in the juvenile world where there are more females arrested. i think it's because of gang activity, drugs and sort of a competition i guess with males to participate in a gang or another organization, so they're out there. and there's also a big increase in domestic violence involving women where they are the person attacking. >> interesting. the fact that the suspect is a female, do you expect that to factor into the investigation, and what do you think investigators are focusing on right now? >> well, it will not change a thing. what is her motive? where did she get the weapon? is she alone and what are the
7:35 am
links between her, youtube, and maybe anybody else attached to this crime? it appears it's only her but that's what law enforcement will focus on, just like they would if she were male. >> all right, brad garrett. thanks so much for your insight. michael. now to that young man suspected of killing his grandfather and possibly his mother to collect millions in inheritance money. nathan carman appeared in court on tuesday. abc's linzie janis is here with new details. good morning, linzie. >> reporter: good morning. nathan carman's aunts do not want him to inherit that money and they say essentially profit off two deaths they believe he caused. since police have not charged him with any crimes, the family is attempting to hold him accountable for murder in a new hampshire probate court. nathan carman first grabbed the nation's attention when he was fishing with his mother and he says his boat began taking on water. he returned home but his mother did not. >> i got on board the life raft
7:36 am
and was looking around and i was calling out to my mom. i did not see or hear my mom. >> reporter: in their investigation, police discovered nathan was still a suspect in the 2013 murder of his wealthy grandfather john chakalos. >> i had absolutely no involvement in my grandfather's murder. >> reporter: police have not brought charges in either case. but on tuesday the 24-year-old was in court representing himself in a pretrial civil action brought by his three aunts who are determined to not let him inherit roughly $7 million from the estates of his mother and grandfather. >> even if he were to believe that, that's not a crime, and how does that relate to the allegation that i killed my grandfather? >> reporter: carman even suggested to the court that his aunts should be suspects in the deaths. >> some of the petitioners have awfully substantial motives and
7:37 am
i had very, very little. >> reporter: the judge strongly urged him to hire counsel. >> even though you can't go to jail as a result of what happens here, obviously the stakes are pretty high for you. you can be compelled to give information in this case. you've already been served two sets of interrogatories and a request for production of documents. >> reporter: when i spoke with carman in 2016, just days after he was rescued at sea, he insisted he was innocent. >> can you understand what people see? you were the last person to see two people alive. you're either incredibly unlucky, the most unlucky guy, or you had something to do with those two deaths. what do you say to that? >> i say that there is no relationship. >> reporter: we have an exclusive statement from the chakalos family saying in part, it is the worst kind of hypocrisy for nathan to point fingers at others when he alone is refusing to answer questions
7:38 am
about the likely murder weapon. the family want the judge to force nathan to answer questions about an assault rifle that police say he purchased and then told them that he lost. they believe that that could be the murder weapon. the family wants answers to these questions. they say it's not about the money. if they're able to prevent him from getting his inheritance, they'll give that money to charity. >> really bizarre case. >> thanks very much. coming up, new twists in that murder case. what we're now learning about the aspiring pastor accused of killing his wife and blaming cold medicine. which is breast cancer metastatthat has spreadr, to other parts of her body. she's also taking prescription ibrance with an aromatase inhibitor, which is for postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive her2- metastatic breast cancer as the first hormonal based therapy.
7:39 am
ibrance plus letrozole was significantly more effective at delaying disease progression versus letrozole. patients taking ibrance can develop low white blood cell counts, which may cause serious infections that can lead to death. before taking ibrance, tell your doctor if you have fever, chills, or other signs of infection, liver or kidney problems, are pregnant, breastfeeding, or plan to become pregnant. common side effects include low red blood cell and low platelet counts, infections, tiredness, nausea, sore mouth, abnormalities in liver blood tests, diarrhea, hair thinning or loss, vomiting, rash, and loss of appetite. alice calls it her new normal because a lot has changed, but a lot hasn't. ask your doctor about ibrance. the #1 prescribed fda-approved oral combination treatment for hr+/her2- mbc.

[ applause ] now you're a grown-up. >> yes. >> you go to the set as an adult. >> i found out i booked "roseanne" on my 18th birthday which could not have been a
8:40 am
better gift for a birthday but let alone like adulthood so it was amazing because i finally wasn't the baby on the set and it was amazing for me -- you guys got to interview ames yesterday who does amazing and so well spoken but it was cool. i got to take them under my wing. they're both 10 years old, jaden and ames who play my little brother and cousin and i started at 10 years old. exact same and i remember it was really sweet because at the first table read we were meeting the cast, i held their hands because they were nervous as we were walking out but i was holding their hands because i was nervous, right? >> well, you know what, we're glad you joined us. so happy you're here. you've brightened up our wednesday. >> you're so sweet.
