obtained the data by accessing a server rented by capital one and then posting it to an information sharing site. she's been charged with computer fraud and abuse. the breach exposing the personal information of an estimated 100 million people in the u.s. and another 6 million in canada. that includes information on consumers and small businesses that applied for a capital one credit card between 2005 and 2019. so what's at risk? customers' names, addresses, phone numbers, birth dates, and some parts of consumers' credit history. capital one insists that no credit card account numbers or log-in information was exposed, but they do say that 140,000 social security numbers were put at risk along with 80,000 bank account numbers. capital one's ceo saying in a statement while i am grateful that the perpetrator has been caught, i'm deeply sorry for what has happened. i sincerely apologize for the

understandable worry this incident must be causing those ask affected and i am committed to making it right. this latest breach coming just one week after equifax settled with the government for a record $650 million, after a 2017 data breach exposed the personal information of nearly 150 million people. >> so jo, the question a lot of people will be asking as they watch your report, how do i know if i've been affect bid thed by attack? >> capital one is telling us they will notify affected individuals and make free credit monitoring protection available to those impacted. i know so many people have heard this before and the investigation into exactly how this happened is bongoing. >> thank you. it is a big night in politics, the crowded field of democratic presidential candidates will face off during tonight's start of the second primary debate. it's happening over two nights in detroit, and this morning we've got results from a new poll on the race. we've got two reports for you.

we'll start with nbc's morgan radford who has been talking to those critical state voters. >> reporter: that new national poll shows front runner joe biden expanding his lead. we can expect to see more fireworks tonight as the other candidates really sharpen their attacks against him and look for breakout moments to stand out from each other, but in this case, where they are speaking could be as critical as the policies themselves. detroit is still a solidly blue city in a state that flipped red for trump in 2016. i spoke with voters who say they'll be tuned in and warn that none of the candidates should take their votes for granted. >> reporter: ahead of tonight's make or break debate in the motor city, joe biden is still dominating the democratic race. a neuqupoll shows the former vi president with a double-digit lead over his rivals surging 12 points in the past month. biden's closest competitor senator elizabeth warren with

15% followed by senators kamala harris and bernie sanders. for biden, it's a dramatic turn around following his rocky performance in that first debate. caught offguard when harris targeted his senate record on civil rights. >> you also worked with them to oppose busing. >> reporter: now the former vice president says he's ready for a rematch telling democratic donors last week i'm not going to be as polite this time. >> i will express differences and articulate them and certainly point out where we have differences of opinion. >> reporter: and for tonight's debate, the location is just as key as the lineup. michigan is one of three critical swing states along america's manufacturing corridor that flipped for trump in 2016. voters here say they want to hear about the economy. >> bring in more jobs, it will be good for the community. >> reporter: at a local gym in detroit's northwest side, in an historically black neighborhood, voters say the candidates shouldn't take their votes for granted. >> what do you think detroit

needs to hear from these democratic candidates? >> i think we are more concerned about hearing not just the middle class, but the black middle class. >> we are the motor -- the motor city, but even those jobs are decreasing, so it's like what's next? >> we've been talking to folks. are they enthusiastic about any particular candidate or still doing the wait and see? >> kind of the wait and see. what we saw on the ground did largely confirm what we saw in that poll. it's interesting to see how much these debates matter to voters. one person said he liked buttigieg because he felt like he answered honestly. others felt like biden is the only one who can really take on president trump. others felt like sanders when it came to education and mass incarceration was something that is important to them. it's still early. >> still a lot of candidates. thank you, morgan. one topic you can bet will come up during the debate

tonight, president trump's attacks on democratic congressman elijah cummings and the city of baltimore. overnight the president escalated that with a new series of tweets. nbc's chief white house correspondent hallie jackson has more for us. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, and this morning some of the president's allies are hesitant about his relentless attacks on yet another african-american lawmaker, congressman elijah cummings but this morning president trump is not backing down, speaking with reporters outside the white house on his way to deliver a speech in virginia, president trump suggested that congressman cummings who heads the oversight committee should conduct oversight of the city of baltimore itself, and he took aim at yet another target, the reverend al sharpton. >> new fallout today as president trump draws defenders hud wlg a group of inner city pastors privately after publicly describing the city of baltimore as infested by rats, language derided by his opponents as racist.

>> do you believe today was an attempt at damage control by president trump? >> no, i don't. >> we have a president who's listening and i was glad to pray with him today. >> reporter: the president has plenty of critic after his attack on another african-american lawmaker elijah cummings who whose district includes part of baltimore, and now al sharpton calling him a conman after sharpton visited the city to stand up for its people. >> reverend sharpton what is your message to president trump? >> he should not continue to try and sell this racist behavior to try and make the country more divided for his own political gain. >> he's trying to say it's us versus them. that is not reflective of a leader and certainly not an american leader. >> reporter: even nfl coach john harbaugh was asked to respond. >> we love the people in baltimore everywhere, maybe it's because the baltimore people love the ravens so much. we've felt nothing but love here for the last 11 years. >> president trump has dechblded

himself as aides argue he's fighting back against an antagonist in congress. cummings chairs the house oversight committee. now after then kand day-to-day tru -- candidate trump pledged on the campaign trail to help lift up urban neighborhoods. >> what the hell do you have to lose? >> reporter: the former republican national committee chair is pushing the president to make good on that promise. >> the streets are ready for you. the neighborhoods are ready for you. folks want to talk to you, so just show up. put the tweet down, brother, and show up. >> also today president trump said that people from baltimore were phoning him to say thank you, although would not name names on that. he said he believed that many african-american members of the city of baltimore are appreciative of what he's doing and that he would get involved with the city if asked. willie, savannah. >> it might be difficult now. hallie jackson, thanks. we're learning new details about the case against two american teenagers jailed in

rome for allegedly killing an italian police officer. this is the family of one of the suspects arrives in italy. today senior international correspondent keir simmons has got the details for us. good morning. >> good morning, italian prosecutors just wrapped up a news conference saying cc tv was used to trace the two american suspects and praising the prai investigators for tracking them down at a hotel just 250 feet from the attack. he's also released a picture of a knife they say was used in the attack saying there are confusing elements to the case some of the police officers involved were not on duty, and forgotten to carry his weapon, a key question emerging this morning, did the boys know they were facing police officers? the californian teens will remain in custody the italian prosecutor said this morning because of the gravity of the allegations they face. the family of 19-year-old finnegan lee elder saying they continue to gather facts adding we're grateful he has been

provided medical care and our heart goes out to the family who have suffered an unimaginable loss police officer mario cerciello rega was stabbed 11 times. his funeral at the same church where he was recently married. he had been investigating allegations of a cocaine deal gone wrong and attempted extortion. italian media say this is video not verified by nbc news of two suspects anne arundrunning frome scene. elder confessed claiming self-defense according to a judge's ruling but this picture of 18-year-old gabrielle christian natale hjorth blindfolded the picture widely condemned in italy. a police officer involved quickly moved off the case, and now amanda knox speaking out in 2007 she was forced into a confession by italian police over the killing of her friend meredith kercher many are asking me about this

case, she tweeted. all i can say is i'm withholding judgment he should be tried in a court of law, not the court of olympic opinion. in any case it's tragic. my heart goes out to the victim's family. >> italian prosecutors saying that picture of one of the boys blindfolded in police custody casts a shadow in the case, but he's insisting the boys were interviewed according to the law. in those interviews the prosecutor says one of the boys claims he didn't know the men were police and that he was scared when the officers grabbed ahold of them. the police insisting willie and savannah, they did identify themselves guys. >> serious case there, keir, continue to follow it for us, please thank you. let's turn now and get a first check of the weather for that we say good morning to mr. roker. hey, al. >> good morning tweet willie, and good morning to you, thanks for getting your first national weather from us. 30 million people here in the northeast from new york up into boston, interior sections of the northeast affected by this heat. we're looking at heat indices that will be upward of 100, hot and humid ahead of this cold

as news of the attacks spread, it's causing everyone who heads into the water to keep a much closer look. florida's new smyrna beach is known as the shark bite capital of the world, and this week it's been living up to that well-deserved reputation with not one, but two attacks on tuesday, 18-year-old reed zipperer was surfing with his friends. the teenager saw a shark when he got into the water, but didn't think about it too much until it bit him. >> i went to paddle back out, grabbed my board, hopped on, started to paddle and like right when my left hand hit the water, a shark just came up and just wailed in. oh, gosh. >> i could tell that the injury to the top of his hand was fairly severe,ho holding composure. >> zipperer's friends droefr vem to a nearby hospital where he received 19 stitches. >> the guy was like you're really lucky if it went any deeper you would have got damage to the tendons

and you would have had to get surgery. >> reporter: the attack comes days after a boogie boarder was bitten by a shark on that same stretch of beach the 49-year-old man was not badly hurt new smyrna beach has reported more than 300 unprovoked attacks since records started being kept in 1882. this last week about 60 miles south in cocoa beach these sharks were seen slicing through the surf near the shoreline. zipperer says this scare still won't keep him from surfing with sharks. >> the sharks are everywhere when the waves are good in florida, you got to get on them. just another day, you know, just another day in florida. >> what is it about this beach, morgan that has so many shark attacks? >> reporter: yeah, willie everyone's asking that it really is a combination of two things first, you have this area is extremely popular with surfers, upwards of 300 surfers can be in that water every day you combine that with the fact that new smyrna is actually right in the middle of the

migration path for the black tip shark, a species that is highly reactive and could likely bite at anything that catches its eye. willie. >> as you said, those surfers will be right back out there this morning thanks so much. let's turn to al now and get a check of the weather i see you got a couple of storms on the horizon. >> that's right. we're taking a look, the pacific getting a little active out there. we've got hurricane eric, category one storm its 80 miles per hour winds moving west at 17. right behind it we've got tropical storm flossie, 65 miles per hour winds as you can see, there's a path eric stays to the south of hawaii, but we're watching flossie because right now it's a category one and could cause problems here in the east we've had not that much development, and that's because we've had a lot of dust coming off the sub saharan desert, that getting itself into the atmosphere and kind of breaking up all these systems that are developing. but now we're starting to see that dust subside, and so we're watching african waves come off the coast of africa and more likely start to see formation.

in fact, right now we've got invest 95l that is south of puerto rico. over the next five days, it's 89s 1 degrees and san jose stays in the upper 70s. so for some of our inland areas, warmer temperatures will in the 80s and we'll see more of that throughout the week and we heat up into the low 90s by this saturday and sunday. >> that's your latest weather. savannah? >> al, thank you. coming up, meghan markle's >> that's your latest weather. savannah. all right, al, thank you coming up, meghan markle's intimate conversation about motherhood with michelle obama. plus, jenna catches up with the author and artist of

like why are things stalling >> reporter: now the investigation has found that for 421 days, a year and two months, the fbi, the u.s. olympic committee, and usa gymnastics all failed to act, or even warn michigan state university where dr. nassar worked that he was sexually abusing athletes. >> and they're also profiles in cowardice and concealment because people looked the other way, and they put medals and money above morals >> reporter: connecticut democrat richard blumenthal and kansas republican senator jerry moran say the organizations knowingly concealed reports of the abuse. >> was this a massive cover-up at all levels of usag, usoc and for that matter, even the fbi? >> whether it was a criminal cover-up remains to be proven, but it was a cover-up in spirit. >> reporter: in april of 2018, some of nassar's accusers appeared on capitol hill,

accusing usa gymnastics and the u.s. olympic committee of failing to protect them. >> they failed to speak up, and they let nassar assault children >> reporter: the ceo u.s. olympic committee scott blackmun resigned, athletes accused him of failing to act. the congressional allegation he misrepresented the truth under oath alan ashley was fired, former usa jam nistics steve penny refused to answer congress's questions. he's pleaded not guilty to evidence tampering, ordering the removal of internal documents from the team's training center. when informed about the report's findings, penny's attorney who has not read the report told nbc news much of it was not true. >> it is hard to find instances where what should have happened happened. >> should people go to prison in this case? >> if these allegations are substantiated by evidence and by conviction, people should serve time in prison

>> reporter: this morning former national team gymnast jessica howard who says she too was abused by nassar says the senators' work gives her hope. >> to actually see it get to this point already feels like a huge, to me feels like a huge victory. >> reporter: we reached out to usa gymnastics and the usoc for comment. usa gymnastics tells nbc news it looks forward to working with congress and has already made changes to quote, designed to prevent the opportunity for abuse. in an open letter to athletes back in december following its own investigation, the usoc did acknowledge institutional failures and said it was implementing reforms the fbi referred us to the justice department's office of the inspector general and it said it will not comment on ongoing investigation. guys, back to you. >> tom, what's so infuriating about all of this is how many different institutions appear to have just totally failed and dropped the ball for these athletes so the investigation is one thing. is there any kind of legislation

that these senators are proposing to fix this? >> this is a bipartisan effort with moran and blumenthal. they're proposing a bill that would essentially give a lot more oversight to congress, and it would allow essentially them to dissolve the boards of both the usoc and also usa gymnastics if necessary also imposing a lot more liability on the potential for -- so if one of these organizations has abuse going on, they would be exposed to even greater liability and also giving the young athletes more representation on the usoc board as well. so the bottom line is this law, if it's passed, would provide a lot more congressional oversight over america's olympic teams >> all right, tom, thank you very much. just ahead this morning, another bison attack at a national park, the young victim still recovering in the hospital shares details behind his terrifying encounter, but first these messages

let's shine light in a world filled with seemingly daily darkness, the duchess of sussex writes pivot from a perspective of frustration to one of optimism the duchess penning an editorial as she -- the influential british vogue september issue, a role she reveals she asked for, her words often unashamedly political, this issue is about the power of collective. you will find that spiert of inclusivity on the coverage, diverse portraits of women of varying age, color, creed, nationality and life experience and of unquestionable inspiration. among the articles there's a very special piece she adds with renowned conservationist jane goodall, interviewed by my husband. prince harry was videoed with goodall last week, dancing with her, and impersonating a chimp greeting goodall has campaigned all her life to save the endangered animals. meanwhile, pregnant with baby archie, meghan interviewed former first lady michelle obama getting advice on motherhood
