dangerous the bluffs can be. >> people put their chairs and stuff up against these cliffs and they're not conscious, you know, that these cliffs can slide. >> reporter: authorities say there's no rhyme or reason to why this happened. it's partially how beaches are made with this kind of natural erosion. it's really scary as temperatures aheheat up and so n families head to the beach. rapper asap rocky is back in the united states as a judge in sweden decides whether or not he's guilty of assault after a brawl on the streets that has attracted the attention of celebrities and even the president of the united states nbc's kelly cobiella has more. >> reporter: good morning to you. asap rocky was seen smiling as he got off a private plane in l.a. early this morning. clearly relieved to be out of the swedish jail his legal troubles may not be over yet this morning, asap rocky is back home after a celebration in sweden on friday just moments after being told he was free to

pelosi is firmly in the investigation camp but some colleagues are pressing her to go more towards the inquiry route. >> hans nichols in new jersey this morning, thank you. a major new development in a case that drew national attention. the death of eric garner as he was being arrested a judge recommended that the officer at the center of it all should be fired. nbc's kathy park is here with the latest >> good morning. a lot of reaction. the recommendation is a turning point in the case that has captured the attention for five years now. in just weeks, we may find out whether officer daniel pantaleo gets to keep his job this morning, eric garner's family calling for justice commissioner, fire pantaleo. that's all we ask. >> an administrative judge recommended friday that officer daniel pantaleo be fired for his role in the death of eric garner, that decision drawing divided reaction from lawmakers to law enforcement. >> found him guilty on
