7:06 am
who was attending the parade with his family. matthew, our hearts go out to you and everybody there in waukesha. how are you doing this morning, matthew? >> i didn't get any sleep last night. i kept replaying what i witnessed, and what could have potentially happened to myself and my children, and just thinking about the families that were affected last night. their lives are forever changed. i just was replaying that over and over again last night. >> i can only imagine you doing that, and it's hard to imagine what you and so many others witnessed. can you please tell us what you saw yesterday? >> so just my two girls, harper and delilah, 5 and 2, took them there to have a wonderful experience. they were enjoying picking up the candy, seeing the floats. and just all of a sudden, i heard screams and chaos coming from my right, and that caught my attention. i looked over and i saw an suv coming towards us relatively
7:07 am
quickly, and i knew that wasn't part of the parade, and i knew something was -- something was wrong. and right as it was coming towards us, maybe half a block away, i wasn't sure what was going on. that's when time slowed down and sped up and i didn't know what was happening. i just didn't take my eyes off of the suv, but at the same time, i was grabbing my children. and the next thing i knew, my back was against the wall of the building. we were hunkered down with a bunch of people, screaming, crying saying to get down because we didn't know what was going on. my main concern obviously was the safety of my children. >> harper and delilah, i'm so thankful that you were able to get them out of harm's way like that. did you -- >> mm-hmm. >> did you have a sense at all, matthew, that the vehicle -- that the driver was intentionally trying to hit people? >> i'll be completely honest. i -- the first thing that came to my mind when i saw it coming towards us, i thought it was potentially an elderly person who was under cardiac arrest
7:08 am
because i did see that at some point earlier in my life. that was my first initial assumption. i didn't potentially think this could have been an attack. that wasn't my first assumption, but that's what i thought. >> the investigation is continuing, and there are still so many unanswered questions about that. you have lived in that beautiful area for more than a decade. can you give our viewers just a sense of waukesha, what it's like, and the people there? >> yes. so i lived in the area for about ten years and i moved to waukesha about a year ago, and there's a reason why i moved here, because this is a wonderful city. the people here are amazing, but there's a wonderful history. and you hear about things like this happening across the country. you never think that it could happen here, and i thought the same thing, but of course, that was proven wrong. it did happen here. it happened to me. it happened extremely close to me, especially with my children
7:09 am
there, and that's what's so detrimental and shocking that i had to live through this, and my children were extremely close to being hit, too close for comfort. that puts a lot of things into perspective. >> i'm sure it does. you have harper and delilah. keep them close to you. >> i definitely will. >> and matthew, thank you so much, and again, we're thinking of everyone in that area. take care, please. be well. >> thank you. >> all right, t.j.? robin, we want to turn now to another breaking story we have been watching overnight. 2 of the 17 missionaries kidnapped in haiti are free this morning after more than a month in captivity. our marcus moore joins us now with what we know. marcus, good morning. >> reporter: t.j., a glimmer of hope this morning in haiti as the national police force there confirms that those two hostages have been released. you may recall on october 16th, members of the notorious mawozo gang kidnapped these 16 americans and 1 canadian as they returned from an orphanage. the gang leader demanded
7:10 am
$17 million ransom, $1 million per person, and he threatened to kill the hostages if the group was notpa been paid. now those being held include several children, including an 8 month old baby. they have been held now for 36 agonizing days, and in a statement, ohio-based christian aid ministries said that the two hostages who have been released are safe, in good spirits, and are being cared for. and this morning, now the attention focused on those other 15 hostages still being held. george? >> okay, marcus, thanks. we're going to switch gears to the thanksgiving countdown. more than 50 million people expected to travel by air and road after a gun scare this weekend as one of the busiest airports in the country. gio benitez has the latest. good morning, gio. >> reporter: hey, george, good morning. that happened with travel now breaking pandemic records. here delta brought us onto the tarmac here in laguardia, and the planes are ready to fly 5.5 million passengers just this week and that's only on delta. let's go ahead and start with
7:11 am
that scare in atlanta first. take a look at this because people panicked when a passenger's gun accidentally went off at a security check point. police say that passenger then took off running. now airports across america will be very busy this week. we'll see the most travelers wednesday and sunday. on the roads now, aaa expects nearly 50 million people to drive for the holiday despite those surging gas prices we are seeing right now. now the worst times to travel and get on the road, wednesday through friday, any time in the afternoon. your best bet is really to get on the road and even in an airplane early in the morning. >> all right, gio. we know the weather could play a big part in determining how smoothly holiday travel will go. ginger is here to tell us how things are looking. good morning, ginger. >> reporter: robin, things are looking up. we have a front passing right now. you can see that in maine, and the snow in vermont. behind this front, which will bring mostly rain for folks, we'll see cold and breezy
7:12 am
dnesday, themptant day wh erys don't know that you could ask for better weather. denver, the only place that could see some snow. they just broke a record for the longest stretch, the latest first measurable snow, but they'll get it on the worst day. robin? >> all right, ginger, thank you. t.j.? robin, let's turn now to those flash mob robberies. a few popular stories facing ambushes across the country. all this as holiday shopping is picking up. kaylee hartung is tracking this for us. kaylee, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, good morning, t.j. more retailers are now taking action after this series of really brazen smash and grabs. these are entering stores at all hours of the day, and some are making off with up to a million dollars in goods. the latest robbery on saturday in san francisco. 80 thieves running into a nordstrom, stealing goods and smashing shelves. officers stopping one car, arresting a man and a woman, and then a third suspect was caught on foot.
7:13 am
a day earlier, also in san francisco, more than $1 million in merchandise was stolen after thieves broke into several stores that day. walgreens is already closing several san francisco stores after videos of brazen shoplifters went viral including video appearing to show a man riding his bike out of a store with a bag full of stolen items, and the chicago area has also been hit hard. just last week, 14 suspects ran into this louis vuitton store grabbing $120,000 in purses and other items before fleeing in getaway cars, and police say in that case, the store's security guard was on a break. george? >> okay, kaylee. thanks. we turn now to the trial of the three men accused of murder in the killing of ahmaud arbery. the judge says he hopes closing arguments will start this morning, but there are some crucial issues to iron out. steve osunsami has the latest. >> reporter: a jury in south georgia is getting closer this morning to deciding the fate of three men accused of killing a black 25-year-old in a case defined by race and fear. closing arguments are next and could be taking place today. the defendants, travis
7:14 am
mcmichael, his father, gregory, and william "roddie" bryan are accused of chasing down and murdering ahmaud arbery while he was jogging through this leafy neighborhood. all three plead not guilty. both sides presenting arguments over words on friday to how the charges will be presented to the jury of 12 that includes only one african-american. >> y'all argued my brain into mush. >> reporter: lawyers for the three accused say that their clients had reasonable suspicion to believe that the young black man was stealing shortly before he was killed, and that the killing was justified under a citizens arrest law that was the law at the time. travis mcmichael, who is seen in this disturbing cell phone video firing the deadly shots, took the witness stand claiming that arbery was the attacker. >> he had my gun. he struck me. it was obvious that he was -- it was obvious that he was
7:15 am
attacking me, that if he had got the shotgun from me, that it was a life or death situation. >> reporter: but mcmichael is on record admitting that the young man he's seen chasing was unarmed and posed him no physical or verbal threat. >> he never yelled at you guys? >> no. >> he didn't pull out any guns? >> no, ma'am. >> reporter: what's more, police say arbery was never seen stealing anything, despite the suspicions of the three men on trial. and there were strangers who were white who visited the same construction site and weren't chased or killed. [ chanting ] >> reporter: outside the courthouse, the young man's mother and many supporters are praying for justice. >> i just want to say thank you. my heart is just full of just joy in the midst of this broken heart. >> reporter: closing arguments will take several hours. each of the defense teams -- there are three of them -- will get two hours. the prosecution will get three hours. it's so long, they're going to need to take breaks, and then of
7:16 am
course, there is the reading of jury instructions, and all of this is before the jury is handed the case. it's not clear how the thanksgiving holiday is going to impact the progress here. we're expecting or hoping that the judge might make a decision on that today. >> we do. all right, steve, thank you. we're going to turn now to the fight against covid. boosters rolling out across the country this morning, as all adults are now eligible for a third shot. trevor ault joins us now from the vaccination site at citi field here in new york. good morning, trevor. >> reporter: good morning, robin. a lot of people have been waiting for this green light and jumped at the opportunity this weekend to go out and get a booster shot. for clarity, this new authorization from the cdc says anybody who is over 50 or any adult living in a long-term care facility should go out and get a pfizer or moderna booster, but perhaps more importantly now, any adult now can get a booster shot, and health experts say these boosters are crucial for bolstering your immunity that starts to wane six months out.
7:17 am
dr. fauci says if you have had two pfizer or moderna shots or one johnson & johnson shot, you are considered fully vaccinated. at the same time this weekend, there were some massiv des n sponse t near 400peop taking to the streets in brussels. police there deploying water cannons and tear gas because europe is in the midst of a surge right now, yet another one, to the point that austria is going into a ten-day lockdown, and they're going to be become the first country in europe to make vaccines mandatory. germany may follow suit. but because of that surge, the world health organization says europe is the hot spot to watch. t.j.? >> all right, trevor. thank you so much. and to our viewers now, i want you to stay with me. i'm about to show you a three-second video. it's short, but it's one of the most highly anticipated three-second videos of the year. and what is it? take a look. that's it. we can just loop it now, but that's tiger woods. he posted a video on social media.
7:18 am
this is the first time we are seeing him hit a golf ball since that car crash earlier this year. it was in february. he captioned this though, making progress. he had several surgeries from a devastating car accident. his injuries sounded horrific, but making progress and getting back out there. >> good to see. >> that is good to see. a lot more coming up on "gma," including our exclusive with jordan and jennifer turpin. we'll get their reaction to the diane sawyer special and what they're hoping the future will bring. first, back to ginger. >> i told you precipitation wise, it shouldn't be trouble. i never said it wouldn't be cold. it looks nice when it's coming down, but look at that cold blast coming in from great lakes to northeast. temperature do the tumble going into wednesday. your local weather in 30 seconds. first though, the select cities sponsored by subaru.

mma, especially the female fighters. so when it landed on my lap, i was, like, i love the story, and i love the bones, but i couldn't play a white girl. blake lively had the script at the time. my agent said she may or may not do it. we'll have to wait patiently, and we'll let her decide, and if she passes, you can see if you can get it. it took her six months, and in that six months, i spent that time re-imagining what that could be for a middle-aged black woman set in the inner city of some city dealing with what we as black women deal with, what i know to be true. when she passed, directorsnd sa. >> you did that even though you didn't know for sure you were going to get it? >> because i knew i was going to get it. you know how when you read something and you know, this is mine? i'm going to wait patiently, and i'm going to let her have her time, but i knew in my heart this was a story that i was meant to tell. >> let's take a look. >> you don't look like no ufc,

me crash courses to accelerate me to that point. >> you broke a couple of ribs. >> i did. i'm alway breaking something. this time only two, not three, so i'm getting better. >> how much did you get hit, and how nervous did the folks you were training with, the other actors as well, they had to be nervous to break ribs that belong to halle berry? >> they should have been scared i was going to hurt somebody too. if you don't know what you are doing, you have a greater chance of hurting someone. >> this was your first time directing. this was so big for you, and people said, they were destined or they wanted to be behind the camera. you never really had said that. >> yeah. >> what was it that made you this time say, yeah, i want to be a director? >> sometimes your destiny finds you. i've come to terms with that in life. you don't set out to do something in life. when you get called on to do it,
8:34 am
you either step up or you don't. that's what happened to me. i searched for a director, but the story hadn't been written yet. it was only the re-imagining i had done in my head. i had spoken with film makers. some wanted the drama part, and we don't know the fight. others said, let's make it a fight movie. i needed to have both the drama and the fight. that was a story i wanted to tell, and then i realized, i think i'm going to have to do this myself. >> are you bitten by the bug now, the directing bug? >> i do want to do it again. spike told me never say never. i'll never, i don't think, act and star. i want to focus on telling the story or being the actor.thf bsl engh. urself on scre a reyoha t this has been torture. for almost a year and a half, i mean, torturous, yes. one reason i won't do it again. >> what do you got coming up on thanksgiving? >> i don't know. we're still in covid world. i think it's going to be a very
8:35 am

8:39 am
in "thor." surprised you're still doing it? >> at least there's no tights. i'm very happy about that. i never could have imagined playing it this long, but this ended up being a really good reason to keep continuing. i liked the long form story telling on disney plus. there's the six-hour version of a two-hour film. it allows for a lot more character development, and things like that. it's been pretty great. >> we saw you and hayley on the clip. you look like you had amazing chemistry. it seemed effortless. i know this is her first time in a marvel pic. did you have any advice for her? did she need any? >> things i probably can't say, and i did tell her to stretch, and hydrate. but otherwise, you know, i just wanted to kind of be there for her because there's a lot of diffen g mc are's aotf things you cpredican and go

with it. it doesn't make sense, but you have to do it. it's not like how the movies are. you just kind of have to trust the process and go with it. >> i'm sure she appreciated your advice. >> she did great, and she came in prepared, and she was willing, and i'm proud of her. >> i can't believe your daughter is now 8 years old. >> 8 1/2, yeah. >> so when she was younger, she couldn't watch this. >> she's never seen anything i've done. >> has she seen this? is she going to see this? >> i took her to the screening premiere in l.a., and that's the first thing she's seen me do on camera. she's seen me on her pajamas since she was 2. she didn't know why. she wasn't in on the joke. now she gets it. she had so much fun. she loved getting ready for the premiere. she likes the red carpet for whatever reason. weird. you're 8. i don't get it. >> she likes the paparazzi. >> dressed up, and it was beautiful, and the whole family all went in and tce show, and it was probably one of
8:41 am
the best experiences of my life getting to show my family and my daughter. it was pretty amazing. >> that's amazing. the show takes place in new york city right before christmas, and you were talking about what it was like shooting it though. you shot this all during the pandemic, correct? >> yeah. we were here last year. we shot for about two or three weeks from thanksgiving to christmastime, and captured whatever we can for, you know, all the beautiful setting that, you know, new york at christmas is. it's amazing. it is a character in our show. so it's very, very important to have that here. >> what was that like shooting in new york during the pandemic? >> well, you know, there's nobody here. so that was weird, a city that's usually full of life and energy, is, like -- you were talking about, tumbleweeds, except for the paparazzi. all the people were gone, but the people with the cameras were still there. otherwise, it was really, really strange. there's still -- decorations and christmas spirit, and new york always has a pulse. it was weird not having the energy of the people around. it was a little strange.
8:42 am
>> i bet it was. >> yeah. >> what are your thanksgiving plans? >> i have a giant family, so it's a lot of food. it's two turkeys and a lot. i can't wait. i head back after this little circuit today starting with you guys and then i fly back and a t of peoe coo gd bhe. that disney plus. let's go to ginger. >> speaking of getting back to southern california, this is where we have to start. we have a brush fire out in riverside. they got it under control. it was started by a car, but we will have santa ana winds throughout week, and especially through wednesday, and that's where a lot of the warnings are in place. fire danger is high, and humidity less than 15%. you will see gusty winds.
