report. >> all you have to do is look around here at the museum and there are boeing planes all over the place. and the story of this company is, in many ways, the story of america and what american ingenuity can accomplish. in a world where flying is routine, but gravity is a law of nature, it's still mind blowing. 500,000 pounds rising into the sky, miles above the earth, soaring at 35,000 feet. and this factory outside statle is where it comes together. ever walk in here and go wow? >> literally every day. >> reporter: these are among the biggest airplanes in the world, built here by bowing in one of the world's biggest buildings, overseen by vice president elizabeth lund. >> if you took the empire state building and laid on its side,

this building. >> reporter: you need that much space when, on any given day, you're building more than 20 jumbo jets at a time. from start to finish, it takes just five weeks to manufacture this airplane. assembled with some automation, but at its core are people. 40,000 boeing employees at this one site, building a product that will take millions around the world. >> you think about the progress that the world, led by american ingenuity, has led the way. >> reporter: the guy was bilboing and it started a hundred years ago with a pontoon sea plane. before long, boeing planes were everywhere, ushering in a new age of travel, even helping get

wonder if there's something i did wrong. it's something you never leave behind you. >> reporter: talking with people at boeing, you hear that over and over. from the guys on the line to ceo dennis mulenburg. >> we work on things that matter and people's lives depend on what we do. >> reporter: there have been stumbles. perhaps the biggest was the highly anticipated dream liner. boeing developed entirely new technology to make it more comfortable and fuel efficient. but manufacturing delays put the airplane behind schedule, and then a problem with overheating batteries. a fire started on one flight. another had to make an emergency landing. no one was hurt. but the plane was grounded. >> whenner unable to deliver on our equipment, it's devastating, it's discouraging. >> reporter: boeing redesigned the battery. now the dream liner is back in the sky. and the setback boeing learned

too fast. that's why they're taking existing technology and tweaking it for new products. like folding wing tips on boeing made fighter jets. that innovation will go on the next big passenger plane so it can fit at more airport gates. >> we have to be on the leading edge of innovation. >> we see more competitors around the world. >> reporter: the only real europe. today, boeing sells more than 70% of its airplanes outside the u.s. and when it looks to the next 100 years, it sees more growth overseas, especially in china. >> our projection is that the world, over the next 20 years, needs 38,000 new commercial airplanes. >> reporter: and more than 6,000 of those will be in china? >> yes.

we're the u.s.'s biggest exporter in the manufacturing sector. it's a global business. >> reporter: now, as a further example of that relationship between boeing and the chinese, when the chinese president visited here in the u.s. last month, he went out to that factory in seattle and boeing announced it was building a plant in china. now, donald trump says that's going to cost u.s. jobs, but boeing says it's solidifying its relationship with the chinese, meaning more orders for airplanes and more jobs in the u.s. lysol spray kills 99.9% of bacteria. making it more than just the "pungent stink" neutralizer.

people who live in bridgetown, missouri, outside of st. louis, are up in arms over a potential time bomb buried underground. turns out a local landfill is full of nuclear waste, which was illegally dumped in the '70s. to make matters worse, there's a fire burning underground at a separate landfill just 400 miles away. >> reporter: one of the landfills that you mentioned, the one that contains the waste, was designated a super fund site in 1990, meaning the federal government would fast track its cleanup. now 25 years later, the waste is still there and there is another potential threat. >> you can't 100% guaranty that we're okay. >> reporter: hundreds demanded answers last night from federal officials. >> i'm scared. this is scary. >> we don't go outside. we don't open our windows.

of their anger and frustration. two landfills that abut one another in north st. louis county. one houses two areas of illegally disposed nuclear residue, named a super fund cleanup site in 1990. the other landfill has an underground fire, a slow burn, which has been smoldering for five years. it's thought to be about 1,000 feet from the radioactive material, but no one knows for sure what will happen if the fire comes into contact with the waste. >> i don't know why they ignored it for so long. >> reporter: dawn chapman helped start a citizen activist group to educate her neighbors. what is the most frustrating thing for you as a resident? >>ky not believe that somebody, anybody in their right mind would think that you can leave the world's oldest nuclear weapons waste sitting on a landfill and there's not a consequence to that.

legacy waits to world war ii when uranium was processed here. the sites where the leftover waste was stored has been cleaned but low-level radiation has moved into neighborhoods. missouri's attorney general is suing the landfill owner. he says the company mishandled the fire and the burn could conceivably hit the material in three to six months. the epa and republic strongly deny those reports, and the company has spent millions of dollars to contain the burn and control the odors. mark hague for the epa. >> the testing we're about to embark on with the additional samples will give the public additional information to support what we've been saying. >> reporter: the epa will decide whether to install a barrier between the two land fills by the end of the year. dawn chapman fears that will be too late.

internal investigation will determine if he keeps his job. >> had she not disrupted the school or the class we would not be standing here today. it started with her and ended with my officer. what i'm going to deal with is what my deputy did. >> reporter: the school district would not answer questions about the teacher or the students in the classroom. the investigation is expected to be completed in 24 hours, but the federal investigation could take several weeks. >> thank you, omar. school based policing is the fastest growing segment of law enforcement. we asked jim axelrod to look into the role of cops in schools. >> reporter: this was last month at rockdale county high school in conyers, georgia. watch as the police officer approaches the fighting students with his taser. >> this happens, it's not isolated. it does happen.

reporter for center for public integrity, says student behavior that leads to police intervention occurs at the rate of 6 for every 1,000 students nationwide each year. virginia has the highest state rate, 16 referrals per 1,000 students. >> across the country, there are school districts that have high rates. while a school district in a neighboring county may not have any referrals at all. the way that officers are used in schools, the kinds of things that they are asked to get involved in or choose to get involved in really vary. >> reporter: special needs students make up 14% of the student population nationwide. but their referral rate to law enforcement is nearly double that. black and latino kids were also referred to law enforcement at rates higher than their percentage of the population. >> you good? >> reporter: officer don bridges has worked at franklin high

than a decade. he says the key to handling situations like the one in south carolina is to train officers to be visible and approachable. >> it's very, very rare that we would have to use tactics such as that. oftentimes we're able to calm situations through verbal deescalation. >> reporter: officer bridges is a member of the national association of school resource officers, which provides 40-hour blocks of instruction for any officer new to working in a school. but scott tells us south carolina does not allow the group to provide training there. jim axelrod. >> jim, thank you. today, president obama said the media is partly responsible for driving a wedge between police and the public by "focusing on the sensational." mr. obama told the international association of chiefs of police that law enforcement is too often scapegoated for the

here's our justice correspondent. >> i reject any narrative that seeks to divide police and communities that they serve. >> reporter: at a gathering of police chiefs in chicago, president obama cautioned against jumping to conclusions about why crime has spiked in some major cities. >> we have to stick with the facts. what we can't do is cherry pick data or use anecdotal evidence to drive policy. or to feed political agendas. >> reporter: that statement appeared to be a response to fbi director james comey, who spoke at the same event yesterday. >> some part of what's going on is likely a chill wind that's blown through law enforcement over the last year. >> reporter: he suggested cell phone videos of deadly police encounters like the arrest of freddie gray in baltimore, could be making law enforcement pull back. >> officers are reluctant to get out of their cars and do the work that controls violent crime. >> reporter: the number of

in orlando, down 10%. in minneapolis, more than 15%. in baltimore, there's been a 34% decrease in arrests. all three cities have seen an increase in homicides. in baltimore, murders are up more than 50% from last year. still, james passco says rank and file officers are offended by the fbi director's comments. >> officers have enough stress without their actions which is misinterpreted by high government officials. >> reporter: the law enforcement community has had its disagreements with the obama administration. but today, many of the president's comments were applauded. scott heath thanked the police saying the country was safer for their efforts. >> jeff, thank you.

if you dig your bones, protect them. all: cbs cares! we've been reporting on an unusual number of rare cancers near an old nuclear waste dump outside st. louis. tonight, the folks who live nearby have a more immediate worry. there is a fire burning underground, possibly within 1,000 feet of the nuclear waste. and bonita is following this. >> we are sick, our kids are sick and we're dying. >> reporter: hundreds of people jammed into a union hall demanding to know if nuclear waste, sitting in their local landfill, could lead to disaster. >> we don't go outside. we don't open our windows. >> you can't 100% guaranty that we're okay. >> reporter: the nuclear waste

landfill in the 1970s. it was the byproduct of processing uranium for america's nuclear weapons program. an underground fire has been burning at the landfill for five years. residents are worried that it could ignite the nuclear material that is about 1,000 feet away. the environmental protection agency and the landfill owner, republic services, insists that's not true. are you guys 100% sure that the underground fire will never touch the waste? >> we are confident that the landfill is in a managed state. >> reporter: missouri's attorney general is not so confident. he's suing republic services, saying his experts tell him it's possible that the nuclear material could reach the burn in three to six months. ed smith, from the coalition for the environment, says if the fire meets the nuclear material, he fears an environmental

>> it's not some wild speculation that if there's a fire, which will disturb the surface of the landfill, then we would see the radioactivity move off site. >> reporter: just this month, the county notified of an evacuation plan. dawn chapman is a mother of three who lives less than two miles from the landfill. >> how dare they come out and tell us everything is safe when they don't know what it is and where sit and how much they have. >> reporter: this scenario has never happened before, so at this point, there is a lot of educated guessing going on, scott, that is little comfort to the residents near. >> bonita, thank you. hurricane patricia is long gone, but what's left of it is still causing trouble. there was flooding today in south carolina's low country. some roads in charleston were impassable. the midwest got buckets of rain today and the system is headed to the northeast just in time for tomorrow morning's rush. in the republican presidential

first place. our new cbs news, "new york times" poll shows ben carson has staged a quiet coup, knocking donald trump out of the top spot by four points. the polls told us a number of fascinating things. with more on that, here's major garrett. >> donald trump's support has eroded across every demographic group we surveyed. two instances really caught our eye. among the tea party, support has fallen from 27% last month to 19%. ben carson now leads here by nine points. among evangelical voters, the two were tied last month. now trump trails carson 35% to 13%. it's not all bad news for trump. he retains two advantages. the first, republican voters see him by almost a 2-1 margin as the most likely to win the general election next move.

54% of backers say they won't change their minds. only 19% of carson voters are that sure. trump's current level of voter commitment would prove decisive, since so many other candidates are dividing up the remaining votes. >> do we love these polls? somebody said do you love polls? i said that's only because i've been winning every single one of them. right, right? every single poll. >> reporter: not anymore. trump is facing the first real decline in support since launching his campaign, and republicans have some deep institutional concerns. 48% believe the federal government is a threat to their life and liberty and 74% believe the political system is not working, despite gop control of the house and senate. this is why conventional politicians like jeb bush, chris christie, and others remain mired in single digits. the central dynamic of this race has not changed. republicans prefer a nonpolitical outsider. what has changed is the personality preference, from

>> major garrett, thanks. those frustrated by washington gridlock might be surprised to hear that the white house today has reached a budget agreement with house republican leaders, led by outgoing speaker john boehner. the deal raises spending by about $80 billion and it lifts the debt ceiling until march of 2017. if passed, and that is likely, there will be no more government cliffhangers in the obama administration. tonight, chinese leaders are fuming after an american navy destroyer, the "uss lassen" sailed within 12 miles of one of china's disputed artificial islands in the south china sea. >> reporter: today's patrol was a blunt message that the u.s. does not recognize china's territorial claim on these islands. they've been filling in reefs to construct man made islands since

china said the u.s. is playing a dangerous game. how far is china willing to go to protect what it sees as its territory? >> translator: the chinese side is willing to resolve the dispute in a peaceful way, but if forced, we will respond in our own way. >> reporter: new satellite images of the islands reveal what are believed to be airstrips capable of handling military aircraft. last june, we traveled towards the reef, one of the islands the u.s. ship approached today. as we get closer, you can see a number of cranes up and down the length of this island. it almost looks like a city in the middle of the sea. by claiming these islands, china is also claiming its vital shipping lanes and vast oil deposits. but the u.s. is pushing back and warned today's patrols won't be

consumers don't know that they're driving with a tire that's subject to a recall. >> reporter: the ntsb chairman christopher hart led the panel that issued 11 safety recommendations, starting with requiring tires be registered when purchased so consumers can be notified immediately. the board recommended how recall information is shared. if the recommendations are accepted, will this save lives? >> this will definitely save lives. 513 fives lost in 2013 is unacceptable. >> reporter: other recommendations, better guidelines and testing for aging tires. just days before this crash, four people in this kia suv died when an aging rear tire failed. the suv slammed into a school bus in louisiana. 31 people on board were hurt. tire makers support the ntsb plan for changing the registration recall system. tire retailers think there's a

trump with evangelical voters. en and a nine-point lead with tea party voters. in just over two weeks, trump has lost 12 points among evangelicals. and 8 points among tea party republicans. trump has lost ground in every single demographic group while carson has gained. the best news for trump, 54% of supporters say they've made up their mind and only 19% of carson voters are that certain. that certainty may prove pivotal for trump down the stretch. the people who make "saturday night live" are coming under fire for inviting donald trump to host the show next month. jan crawford has that story. >> reporter: a coalition of latino groups says trump's inflarm toir remarks about mexican immigrants should dis disqualify him for appearing. a new poll is showing 72% of hispanics view trump but so far "saturday night live"

>> all you have to do is look around here at the museum and there are boeing planes all over the place. and the story of this company is, in many ways, the story of americicand what american ingenuity can accomplish. in a world where flying is routine, but gravity is a law of nature, it's still mind blowing. 500,000 pounds rising into the sky, miles above the earth, soaring at 35,000 feet. and this factory outside seattle is where it comes together. ever walk in here and go wow? >> literally every day. >> reporter: these are among the biggest airplanes in the world, built here by bowing in one of the world's biggest buildings, overseen by vice president elizabeth lund. >> if you took the empire state building and laid on its side,

this building we're in right now. >> reporter: you need that much h space when, on any given day, you're building more than 20 jumbo jets at a time. from start to finish, it takes just five weeks to manufacture this airplane. assembled with some automation, but at its core are people. 40,000 boeing employees at this one site, rolling out a product that will take millions around the world. >> you think about the progress that the worldldled by american ingenuity, has led the way. and boeing is a leader in that effort. >eporter: the guy was bill boeing and it started a hundred years ago with a pontoon sea plane. before long, boeing planes were everywhere, supporting america at war and ushering in a new age of travel, even helping get us to the moon. today, it's the biggt

>> we knew he had a big job to do, so we did it. >> reporter: in the world of avavtion, everyone knows the name joe sutter. 50 years ago, he led a revolution in air travel, designing the 747. skeptics said a jet that big would never work. but sutter was proven right from the 747s first flight and the landing was perfect. >> when i went out to the runway, my wife, nancy, was crying. >> reporter: your wife was crying? because she was so relieved? >> relieved, yeah, and happy for the fact that what i told her was the truth. >> reporter: he's been with boeing for nearly 70 years and says the work is personal. >> if i hear on the news that an airplane got into trouble, i still say to myself, i wonder if it's a boeing airplane and i wonder if there's something i

it's something you never leave hind you. >> reporter: talking with people at boeing, you hear that over and over. from the guys on the line to ceo dennis mulenberg. >> we work on things that matter and people's lives depend d what we do. >> reporter: there have been stumbles. perhaps the biggest was the highly anticipated dream liner. boeing developed entirely new technology to make it more comfortable and fuel efficient. but manufacturing delays put the airplane behind schedule, and then a problem with overheating batteries. a fire started on one flight. another had to make an emergency landing. no one was hurt. but the plane was grounded. >> when we are unable to deliver on our equipment, it's devastating, it's discouraging. that's just not who we are. >> reporter: boeing redesigned the battery. now the dream liner is back in the sky. and the setback boeing learned

too fast. that's why they're taking existing technology and tweaking it for new products. like folding wing tips on boeing made fighter jets. that innovation will go on the next big passenger plane so it can fit at more airport gates. >> we have to be on the leading edge of innovation. or we're going to get past by. >> we see more competitors around the world. >> reporter: t t only real competitor now is airbus in europe. the companies are locked in a piece head-to-head battle in a worldwide market. today, boeing sells more than 70% of its airplanes outside the u.s. and when it looks to the next 100 yes, it sees more growth overseas, especially in china. >> our projection is that the world, over the next 20 years, needs 38,000 new commercial airplanes. >> reporter: and more than 6,000 of those will be in china? >> yes. not many people realize it, but we're the u.s.'s biggest

sector. so aerospace, airplanes, it's a global business. >> reporter: now, as a further example of that relationship between boeing and the chinese, when the chinese president visited here in the u.s. last month, he went out to that factory in seattle and boeing announced it was building a plant in c cna. now, donald trump says that's going to cost u.s. jobs, but boeing says it's solidifying its relationship with the chinese, meaning more orders for airplanes and more jobs in the u.s.

legacy waits to world war ii when uranium was processed here. the sites where the leftover waste was stored has been cleaned but low-level radiation has moved into neighborhoods. missouri's attorney general is suing the landfill owner. he says the company mishandled the fire and the burn could conceivably hit the material in three to six months. the environmental protection agency and rereblic strongly deny those reports, , d the company has spent millions of dollars to contain the burn and control the odors. mark hague, an administrator for the epa. >> the testing we're about to embark on with the additional samples will give the public additional information to support what we've been saying. >> reporter: the epa will decide whether to install a barrier between the two landfills by the end of the year. dawn chapman fears that will be too late.

nomination appears to be slipping. for the first time since he entered the race, trump is not the front runner. now it's ben carson. a poll of likely republican primary voters nationwide shows 26% favor carson, and 22% support trump. meanwhile, the chief executive of ford is blasting the billionaire candidate, who has been bragging about shaming ford for moving a production line from mexico to ohio. he insists trump had nothing to do with the decision. major garrett has more. >> mexico took a ford plant. i've been very tough on ford. you've heard me talking about ford. i heard last night ford is moving back to the united states. [ applause ] i should get credit for that. >> reporter: credit for what? ford will still spend $2.35 million in mexico to build two new plants.

from mexico to ohio. a decision the company announced in 2011, after ohio offered $15 million in tax incentives. one of trump's republican rivals, john kasich, helped engineer the return of ford factory jobs. >> i don't call anybody a liar. what i can tell you is you don't win jobs through bombast, yelling, or working people over, beating them up. >> reporter: ben carson now leading trump in iowa. >> i'm ben carson. >> reporter: released this new tv ad. the theme, the former neurosurgeon is not impossible. >> the political class and their pundit buddies say impossible. he's too outside the box. well, they do know impossible. impossible to balance the budget, impossible to put aside partisanship. >> reporter: the poll shows carson with a 22% lead over

in just over two weeks, trump has lost 12 points among evan evangelical evangelicals. trump has lost ground in every single demographic group while carson has gaped. the best news for trump, 54% of supporters say they've made up their mind and only 19% of carson voters are that certain. that certainty may prove pivotal for trump down the stretch. the people who make "saturday night live" are coming under fire for inviting donald trump to host the show next month. jan crawford has that story. >> reporter: a coalition of latino groups says trump's remarks about mexican immigrants disqualify him as appearing. a new poll is showing 72% of hispanics view trump unfavorably. but so far "saturday night live" is not backing down.

destination for political candidates. >> the real one? >> reporter: many of whom find themselves in scenes with the very actors who have been making fun of them on the show. >> i think snl plays a unique role in the way that people perceive candidates. >> reporter: but trump will be hosting the entire 90-minute show. >> it's exceedingly common for show. but hosting is an all-together different matter. it's a big boost for a candidate to have that platform. >> reporter: a boost that has many detractors upset. >> i don't see nbc reversing this decision. they see it as a ratings gold mine and they see themselves as a political humor place. and this is a perfect opportunity for political humor. >> reporter: trump's appearance could trigger the s.e.c.'s equal time rules. those rules which do not apply

report. >> all you have to do is look around here at the museum and there are boeing planes all over the place. and the story of this company is, in many ways, the story of america and what american ingenuity can accomplish. in a world where flying is routine, but gravity is a law of nature, it's still mind blowing. 500,000 pounds rising into the sky, miles above the earth, soaring at 35,000 feet. and this factory outside statle is where it comes together. ever walk in here and go wow? >> literally every day. >> reporter: these are among the biggest airplanes in the world, built here by bowing in one of the world's biggest buildings, overseen by vice president elizabeth lund. >> if you took the empire state building and laid on its side,

this building. >> reporter: you need that much space when, on any given day, you're building more than 20 jumbo jets at a time. from start to finish, it takes just five weeks to manufacture this airplane. assembled with some automation, but at its core are people. 40,000 boeing employees at this one site, building a product that will take millions around the world. >> you think about the progress that the world, led by american ingenuity, has led the way. >> reporter: the guy was bilboing and it started a hundred years ago with a pontoon sea plane. before long, boeing planes were everywhere, ushering in a new age of travel, even helping get

today, it's the biggest aerospace company in the world. >> we knew he had a big job to do, so we did it. >> reporter: in the world of aviation, ever knows the name joe sutter. 50 years ago, he led a revolution in air travel, designing the 747. skeptics said a jet that big would never work. but sutter was proven right from the 747s first flight and the landing was perfect. >> when i went out to the runway, my wife nancy was crying because she was so relieved and happy for the fact that what i told her was the truth. >> reporter: he's been with boeing for nearly 70 years and says the work is personal. >> if i hear on the news that an airplane got into trouble, i still say to myself, i wonder if

wonder if there's something i did wrong. it's something you never leave behind you. >> reporter: talking with people at boeing, you hear that over and over. from the guys on the line to ceo dennis mulenburg. >> we work on things that matter and people's lives depend on what we do. >> reporter: there have been stumbles. perhaps the biggest was the highly anticipated dream liner. boeing developed entirely new technology to make it more comfortable and fuel efficient. but manufacturing delays put the airplane behind schedule, and then a problem with overheating batteries. a fire started on one flight. another had to make an emergency landing. no one was hurt. but the plane was grounded. >> whenner unable to deliver on our equipment, it's devastating, it's discouraging. >> reporter: boeing redesigned the battery. now the dream liner is back in the sky. and the setback boeing learned

too fast. that's why they're taking existing technology and tweaking it for new products. like folding wing tips on boeing made fighter jets. that innovation will go on the next big passenger plane so it can fit at more airport gates. >> we have to be on the leading edge of innovation. >> we see more competitors around the world. >> reporter: the only real competitor now is airbus in europe. today, boeing sells more than 70% of its airplanes outside the u.s. and when it looks to the next 100 years, it sees more growth overseas, especially in china. >> our projection is that the world, over the next 20 years, needs 38,000 new commercial airplanes. >> reporter: and more than 6,000 of those will be in china? >> yes.

we're the u.s.'s biggest exporter in the manufacturing sector. it's a global business. >> reporter: now, as a further example of that relationship between boeing and the chinese, when the chinese president visited here in the u.s. last month, he went out to that factory in seattle and boeing announced it was building a plant in china. now, donald trump says that's going to cost u.s. jobs, but boeing says it's solidifying its lysol spray kills 99.9% of bacteria. making it more than just the "pungent stink" neutralizer.

people who live in bridgetown, missouri, outside of st. louis, are up in arms over a potential time bomb buried underground. turns out a local landfill is full of nuclear waste, which was illegally dumped in the '70s. to make matters worse, there's a fire burning underground at a separate landfill just 400 miles away. >> reporter: one of the landfills that you mentioned, the one that contains the waste, was designated a super fund site in 1990, meaning the federal government would fast track its cleanup. now 25 years later, the waste is still there and there is another potential threat. >> you can't 100% guaranty that we're okay. >> reporter: hundreds demanded answers last night from federal officials. >> i'm scared. this is scary. >> we don't go outside. we don't open our windows.

of their anger and frustration. two landfills that abut one another in north st. louis county. one houses two areas of illegally disposed nuclear residue, named a super fund cleanup site in 1990. the other landfill has an underground fire, a slow burn, which has been smoldering for five years. it's thought to be about 1,000 feet from the radioactive material, but no one knows for sure what will happen if the waste. >> i don't know why they ignored it for so long. >> reporter: dawn chapman helped start a citizen activist group to educate her neighbors. what is the most frustrating thing for you as a resident? >>ky not believe that somebody, anybody in their right mind would think that you can leave the world's oldest nuclear weapons waste sitting on a landfill and there's not a consequence to that.

legacy waits to world war ii when uranium was processed here. the sites where the leftover waste was stored has been cleaned but low-level radiation has moved into neighborhoods. missouri's attorney general is suing the landfill owner. he says the company mishandled the fire and the burn could conceivably hit the material in three to six months. the epa and republic strongly deny those reports, and the company has spent millions of dollars to contain the burn and control the odors. mark hague for the epa. >> the testing we're about to embark on with the additional samples will give the public additional information to support what we've been saying. >> reporter: the epa will decide whether to install a barrier between the two land fills by the end of the year. dawn chapman fears that will be too late.

internal investigation will determine if he keeps his job. >> had she not disrupted the school or the class we would not be standing here today. it started with her and ended with my officer. what i'm going to deal with is what my deputy did. >> reporter: the school district would not answer questions about the teacher or the students in the classroom. the investigation is expected to be completed in 24 hours, but the federal investigation could take several weeks. >> thank you, omar. school based policing is the fastest growing segment of law enforcement. we asked jim axelrod to look into the role of cops in schools. >> reporter: this was last month at rockdale county high school in conyers, georgia. watch as the police officer approaches the fighting students with his taser. >> this happens, it's not isolated. it does happen.

reporter for center for public integrity, says student behavior that leads to police intervention occurs at the rate of 6 for every 1,000 students nationwide each year. virginia has the highest state rate, 16 referrals per 1,000 students. >> across the country, there are school districts that have high rates. while a school district in a neighboring county may not have any referrals at all. the way that officers are used in schools, the kinds of things that they are asked to get involved in or choose to get involved in really vary. >> reporter: special needs students make up 14% of the student population nationwide. but their referral rate to law enforcement is nearly double that. black and latino kids were also referred to law enforcement at rates higher than their percentage of the population. >> you good? >> reporter: officer don bridges

than a decade. he says the key to handling situations like the one in south carolina is to train officers to be visible and approachable. >> it's very, very rare that we would have to use tactics such as that. oftentimes we're able to calm situations through verbal deescalation. >> reporter: officer bridges is a member of the national association of school resource officers, which provides 40-hour blocks of instruction for any officer new to working in a school. but scott tells us south carolina does not allow the group to provide training there. jim axelrod. >> jim, thank you. today, president obama said the media is partly responsible for driving a wedge between police and the public by "focusing on the sensational." mr. obama told the international association of chiefs of police that law enforcement is too often scapegoated for the

landfill in the 1970s. it was the byproduct of processing uranium for america's nuclear weapons program. an underground fire has been burning at the landfill for five years. residents are worried that it could ignite the nuclear material that is about 1,000 feet away. the environmental protection agency and the landfill owner, republic services, insists that's not true. are you guys 100% sure that the underground fire will never touch the waste? >> we are confident that the landfill is in a managed state. >> reporter: missouri's attorney general is not so confident. he's suing republic services, saying his experts tell him it's possible that the nuclear material could reach the burn in three to six months. ed smith, from the coalition for the environment, says if the fire meets the nuclear material, he fears an environmental

>> it's not some wild speculation that if there's a fire, which will disturb the surface of the landfill, then we would see the radioactivity move off site. >> reporter: just this month, the county notified of an evacuation plan. dawn chapman is a mother of three who lives less than two miles from the landfill. >> how dare they come out and tell us everything is safe when they don't know what it is and where sit and how much they have. >> reporter: this scenario has never happened before, so at this point, there is a lot of educated guessing going on, scott, that is little comfort to the residents near. >> bonita, thank you. hurricane patricia is long gone, but what's left of it is still causing trouble. there was flooding today in south carolina's low country. some roads in charleston were impassable. the midwest got buckets of rain today and the system is headed to the northeast just in time for tomorrow morning's rush. in the republican presidential

first place. our new cbs news, "new york times" poll shows ben carson has staged a quiet coup, knocking donald trump out of the top spot by four points. the polls told us a number of fascinating things. with more on that, here's major garrett. >> donald trump's support has eroded across every demographic group we surveyed. two instances really caught our eye. among the tea party, support has fallen from 27% last month to 19%. ben carson now leads here by nine points. among evangelical voters, the two were tied last month. now trump trails carson 35% to 13%. it's not all bad news for trump. he retains two advantages. the first, republican voters see him by almost a 2-1 margin as the most likely to win the general election next move.

change their minds. only 19% of carson voters are that sure. trump's current level of voter commitment would prove decisive, since so many other candidates are dividing up the remaining votes. >> do we love these polls? somebody said do you love polls? i said that's only because i've been winning every single one of them. right, right? every single poll. >> reporter: not anymore. trump is facing the first real decline in support since launching his campaign, and republicans have some deep institutional concerns. 48% believe the federal government is a threat to their life and liberty and 74% believe the political system is not working, despite gop control of the house and senate. this is why conventional politicians like jeb bush, chris christie, and others remain mired in single digits. the central dynamic of this race has not changed. republicans prefer a nonpolitical outsider. what has changed is the personality preference, from

>> major garrett, thanks. those frustrated by washington gridlock might be surprised to hear that the white house today has reached a budget agreement with house republican leaders, led by outgoing speaker john boehner. the deal raises spending by about $80 billion and it lifts the debt ceiling until march of 2017. if passed, and that is likely, there will be no more government cliffhangers in the obama administration. tonight, chinese leaders are fuming after an american navy destroyer, the "uss lassen" sailed within 12 miles of one of china's disputed artificial islands in the south china sea. >> reporter: today's patrol was a blunt message that the u.s. does not recognize china's territorial claim on these islands. they've been filling in reefs to construct man made islands since

china said the u.s. is playing a dangerous game. how far is china willing to go to protect what it sees as its territory? >> translator: the chinese side is willing to resolve the dispute in a peaceful way, but if forced, we will respond in our own way. >> reporter: new satellite images of the islands reveal what are believed to be airstrips capable of handling military aircraft. last june, we traveled towards the reef, one of the islands the u.s. ship approached today. as we get closer, you can see a number of cranes up and down the length of this island. it almost looks like a city in the middle of the sea. by claiming these islands, china is also claiming its vital shipping lanes and vast oil deposits. but the u.s. is pushing back and warned today's patrols won't be
