7:01 am
buried treasure potentially worth millions of dollars. but we begin this morning with today's "eye opener," your world in 90 seconds. >> the van was on the road and then it swerved into people to cause maximum casualties. >> another attack shakes london. >> this is being treated at a terrorist attack. the counterterrorism force is investigating. >> this was an attack on muslims, and like all terrorism, in whatever form, it shares the same fundamental goal. the u.s. navy recovered the bodies of seven sailors missing since an american destroyer and a merchant ship collided off the coast of japan. >> they had to right the ship to keep it above the surface. it was traumatic. for the first time the u.s. military shot down a syrian air force jet. >> dropped bombs on coalition-backed fighters. >> should we take that tweet from the president that the president is under investigation? >> let me be clear, the president is not under investigation. >> how do you know? >> we've received no notice of
7:02 am
investigation. >> you don't know that's not under investigation. >> i cannot read the -- you're right, i can't read the minds -- >> we're in agreement. you don't know whether he's under investigation. raging wildfires killing dozens in portugal. fire crews racing to contain the inferno. a severe weather threat causing flooding and the south moving up south carolina to maine. all that -- >> a woman spotted what she thought was dog. turned out it was a rattlesnake. hot footing it out of there. >> and "all that mattered." >> standing at the corner of destiny and history. taurasi for the record! >> let's hear it for the new all-time scoring leader, diana taurasi. >> on "cbs this morning." >> kep brooks koepka, a major champion. >> as subdued a reaction as you'll ever see.
7:03 am
business as usual but it's anything but. brooks koepka has won the u.s. open. captioning funded by cbs welcome to "cbs this morning." gayle king is off and we'll soon check in with norah o'donnell. she's on assignment in south korea. how lucky am i. alex wagner and jeff glor are with us. >> great to be here. >> we're the lucky ones. a driver slams his van into a crowd of worshippers overnight outside a london mosque. one person died at the scene but it's not clear if his death resulted from the ramming. >> ten others were injured. they were leetching the mosque after ramadan a prayers. >> the driver tried to run away but was held by onlookers until officers arrived. a witness says the man shouted he wanted to kill muslims. elizabeth palmer is in london. liz, good morning. >> reporter: good morning.
7:04 am
well, 2017 has certainly been a cruel year for great britain. there have been four attacks so far. three of them including it will one that happened last night just behind the road behind me here in london. this time the targets were muslims who were leaving the local mosque just after midnight following ramadan prayers. witnesses say a man shouting "i want to kill muslim" drove into a crowd of people. one man later died but it's not clear he was actually killed in the attack. khalid watched ithappened. >> the van turned left with no indication, with no -- he turned left into the people. one of them, he was under the van. people ran to the van to lift this guy up to get the van off
7:05 am
the guy. >> reporter: bystanders rushed to bin down the driver of the rented van and held him until police arrived. he's a 48-year-old man now under arrest. eight people were taken to the hospital and this morning london's police confirmed what everyone feared. >> this was quite clearly an attack on muslims and they were coming from a prayer meeting. >> reporter: after meeting with top british security officials, prime minister theresa may made this statement. >> today we come together as we have done before, to condemn this act and to state once again that hatred and evil of this kind will never succeed. >> reporter: we heard the prime minister emphasize more than once there that solidarity is crucial right now. there's a real fear that violence will spark more sectarian violence and divide london's multiracial,
7:06 am
multiethnic community. muslims have been promised they will get more police protection during the rest of ramadan. >> thank you, liz. >> cbs news senior national security analyst fran townsend was homeland security adviser for president bush. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> we're looking for more information. >> that's right. >> what's the theory? >> remember, isis called for ramadan attacks and they'll take this attack learly against worshippers coming out of a mosque during holy month and turn it toward their propaganda use. to recruit. to inspire. there's another week of ramadan. my big fear, i think britain's big fear, they'll use this to sort of further inspire other attacks. >> from what i read they already are. >> that's right. >> this ramming style attack with trucks, et cetera, what can be done to prevent them short of having concrete barriers in front of every public space?
7:07 am
>> the problem is this is the weapon of choice is one you can't really restrict. it's easily available. anybody can get it. what you have to do is identify the individual driving it, which is the single hardest thing for investigators to do. we don't know yet with this plan, was it premeditated or a spontaneous act. i'll tell you, the act of the crowd who held the alleged driver of the van reminded me of united 93 on 9/11 where the community on the plane decides to act together to stop somebody. >> this is the third ramming-style attack in three months in london. does london need to change its posture and can it and to alex's point, how much can you actually prevent if they're determining to do it this way? >> security services there in london are very, very good. they rival in terms of their strength and capability, u.s. intelligence and law enforcement. the problem is they're overwhelmed.
7:08 am
we've heard report as many as 23,000 potential extremists they need to watch. that's impossible. what you need to do is triage it and you'll miss people. we don't know the motivation behind this guy. the british press are restricted in what they can say because you've got a suspect captured alive who will face prosecution if they go forward and so the press there is going to have to be pretty circumspect by law about what they can say. >> thank you, fran townsend. the u.s. navy has released the names of seven sailors who died when the "uss fitzgerald" collided with a cargo ship off the coast of japan. the youngest was 19 years old. they come from virginia, california, krlt ct, texas, and missouri. ben tracy has details what we know about the cargo ship's movement before the collision and his heroic efforts to save the destroyer. he's in beijing. ben, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. there are now four investigations into this
7:09 am
incident, three by the u.s. authorities and one by the japanese. so far none of them can say how this massive cargo ship seemingly without warning got close enough to a u.s. navy destroyer to collide with it. the impact crushed the starboard side of the uss fitzgerald. the ship was listing as it was sailing into its home port on in yokosuka, japan, saturday. the commander of the u.s. 7th fleet said the actions of the roughly 300 sailors on board kept the ship from sinking. >> this was not a small collision. it was right near the pilot's house, and there is a big puncture. >> reporter: the other ship, a filipino vessel, sustained minor damage to its bow. the cargo ship which is about four times heavier nearly t-boned the navy destroyer around 2:20 a.m. saturday when much of the crew was asleep and the bridge manned by less than a dozen people. it happened 50 miles south of
7:10 am
tokyo, supposedly the cargo ship's destination. according to marinetraffic.com, the cargo ship made a u-turn before the crash and was headed in the opposite direction. >> both ships had the responsibility to try to avoid each other. >> reporter: cbs radio military analyst mike lions says a language barrier, equipment failure, or human error could all be factors. >> whoever was on the bridge was likely inexperienced, did not recognize the danger that was going, but also could have been accelerating to possibly try to avoid the container ship as well. >> reporter: commander bryce benson, the fitzgerald's captain, had to be airlifted off the ship. during his the collision he was in his cabin, which was destroyed. the sleeping quarters for 116 sailors flooded. seven died including gunner's mate noe hernandez. >> he loved the military. that's all he wanted to do. >> reporter: 19-year-old dakota rigsby was a volunteer firefighter before he was in the navy. >> to know him is to love him.
7:11 am
he was a good strong-hearted person. skooiler click, who survived, told his phat ter crew used a bucket brigade to keep the ship afloat. >> they had a bucket line to keep the ship from sinking a bucket at a time. >> reporter: the japanese coast guard has questioned the 20-member crew of that cargo ship. none of them were actually injured. the owner of the company says that their thoughts are with the families of lost american sailors. meanwhile, the prime minister of japan has sent his condolences to president trump. >> thank you. russia says it will track american warplanes over much of syria as targets. the warning comes after the u.s. shot down a syrian fighter jet to defend american-backed opposition forces. the f-18 super hornet fired on a syrian plain west of raqqah
7:12 am
yesterday avenue it dropped bombs near those fighters. a pentagon spokesman says this is the first air to air combat by the u.s. military inside syria. president trump's son-in-law and adviser jared kushner plans to travel to the middle east on wednesday to jump-start a u.s.-led peace effort. he'll spearhead the negotiations between the israelis and palestinians. chip reid is at the white house with a closer look at kushner's role. chip, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. president trump was in israel just last month and talks have been continuing since then. now he's asked his son-in-law to take the lead as the conversation continues. the president returns to the white house following his first trip to camp david where in 2000 president bill clinton hosted a peace summit with israeli and palestinian leaders. >> i am committed to trying to achieve peace agreement between the israelis and the palestinians. >> reporter: the president believes forging a historic peace agreement is possible and believes his son-in-law is especially fit to achieve it. >> he is so great. if you can't produce peace in the middle east, nobody can.
7:13 am
>> reporter: a white house official says kushner, who joined mr. trump on his recent trip to the middle east, will hear directly from israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and palestinian president mahmoud abbas. the official says kushner likely will make a number of visits to the region. but this peace effort comes as kushner's business dealings are under scrutiny. president trump is facing another round of questions after a "washington post" story said special counsel robert mueller is looking into the possibility he engaged in obstruction of justice. >> he's not afraid of the investigation. there is no investigation. >> reporter: but jay sekulow appeared on several news shows sunday morning. to explain the president's recent tweet which stated in part, "i am being investigated for firing the fbi director." >> the president issued that tweet on social media because of the report in "the washington post" from five anonymous sources, none of which, of course, anyone knows about,
7:14 am
alleging that the president was under investigation in this purported expanded probe. >> reporter: the top democrat said the president's apparent unhappiness with mueller makes little sense. >> the president wants to take down bob mueller. his lawyer wants to take down bob mueller and the question is why. >> reporter: the president reportedly considered firing the widely respected mueller but his advisers talked him out of it. kushner is expected to go before the senate intelligence committee in the near future. charlie? >> thanks, chip. tens of thousands of americans face a growing threat from north korea. king jong-un has carried out nearly a dozen missile tests since the beginning of the year. about 28,000 american troops are stationed in south korea. norah o'donnell is on assignment in seoul with a look at the threat and the approach of south korea's new president, moon jae-in. norah, good morning. >> reporter: good evening to you, charmie. that's right. with this new south korean
7:15 am
president, he's making a lot of news, promising to shake things up. take a look at the front page of the paper here. president moon is now promising dialogue with the north. that puts him at odds with president trump, raising a lot of questions about what the two leaders can achieve at next week's white house summit. >> this is the hospital here. >> reporter: here in the heart of seoul lines the army garrison, the u.s. largest military base in south korea. what's the total population? >> its whole reported population is nearly 22,000. >> reporter: we toured the base with colonel scott peterson, garrison commander, who said they're ready for anything. is it true every family has a gas mask? >> they have protected equipment, yes. children have special ones designed for them, spouses as well. >> reporter: the threat from north korea is growing. kim jong-un is stepping up not only his technical capability
7:16 am
but also his pace. ten missile tests just this year. what good options are there? >> it's called the land of lousy options. >> reporter: john deluyr is an professor in seoul and an expert in north korean affairs. does north korea have the capability to launch a nuclear weapon? >> we have to assume they can launch a nuclear missile, not an icbm, but they can put a warhead on a missile and hit targets in south korea and in the region. >> reporter: under threat, 28,000 troops in south korea. more than 50,000 in japan and more than 6,000 in guam. >> reporter: doesn't kim jong-un want to test an icbm so he can send a message that he could strike the united states? >> stopping the icbm is going to be really tough. recently there have been more signals of we're going to do it soon. it does look like this is in the immediate playbook for what they
7:17 am
want to do. >> reporter: and here's what's really interesting. kim jong-un in his new year's speech said they were in the final stages of getting ready to test an icbm. the director of national intelligence in the u.s., dan coats, he's told congress he does expect north korea to test an icbm just this year. that raises a lot of questions about president moon's strategy. he's promised the people of south korea and the world. not only is he going to denuclearize the north in his words but also seek a peace agreement with the north. that of course has been an elusive goal since the end of the korean war 64 years ago. charlie? >> norah o'donnell in seoul. thank you. later she'll talk with moon jae-in. it is his first broadcast television interview since his election last month. we'll bring you norah's interview tomorrow right here on "cbs this morning." the judge in the bill cosby

8:05 am
good morning. >> reporter: good morning. here is what is interesting. president moon was just elected last month. he is going to the white house next week. what he's doing is talking about reigniting the sunshine policy. he wants to have dialogue with the north. he said he wants to sit knee to knee, head to head with kim jong-un to have talks. he said he's willing to negotiate without preconditions. he wants the north to freeze their nuclear program and what's really making waves back home in the state department is one of president moon's top advisers saying they would be willing to scale down joint u.s. and south korean military exercises, which, of course, has been sort of a staple for many years here in south korea. so a lot of change is at foot, charlie, and that's why it's really nteresting to be here at this time because as you know the defense secretary mattis has said north korea is a clear and

8:08 am
what you have is andrea constand is the only alleged victim whose case fell within the statute of limitations which means it was not time barred by law. and so what you have is the prosecution is going to go forward with this case on these facts and they will attempt to try the case as best they can which, by the way, they did an excellent job the first time. the defense on the other hand going to be raising a number of motions. they will go forward to try to relitigate everything that they have relitigated in the past and they will probably not be successful because judge o'neill is going to have this case. it is assigned to him. so i expect him to abide by many of the same rulings that he has -- >> including not allowing other witnesses who have allegations against cosby to testify in this trial? >> especially other witnesses.
8:09 am
what you have is a number of other accusers. the prosecution wanted to call 13. the judge allowed them to call one in kelly johnson and you have the same judge. so it would really not look to be very judicial if suddenly judge o'neill said, well, this jury, number one, could not reach a verdict, so now let's let the prosecution have 13 or 2 or 3. i don't expect him to do that. >> do we know what happened in the jury room? has anyone come forward to say this is what it was? >> not at this time. but one of the things about jury deliberations that we have to understand here, this jury was out for a longer period of time that the trial took to take place. so what you have a jury that was struggling in one way or the other. we don't know if it was 11-1 or 6-6. what we do know is that there was an effort to persuade one another. the jury came back very, very
8:10 am
early in the week saying that they were hopelessly dead locked. what the judge did is read them something called the spencer charge in pennsylvania. we know it is the dynamite charge. that's what we call it as lawyers or the alen charge in many places. what that basically says is you are the best jury that there is. you should really hold onto your views. and vote your conscience and try to compromise. defense lawyers hate that charge. prosecution loves it. amazon is make a huge bet on the grocery business with a $14 billion deal to buy whole foods. ahead. what this could mean for the way you shop and eat. >> a drink of water. >> alex was holding out trying not to cough. it's so tough. >> we've all been there. >> we have been there. it is 8:10. ti

8:17 am
are the backbone of america. trains move people between cities and provided freight transport for industry, but by the mid 20th century, competition from interstate highways and airlines forced many railroads out of business. in 1971 amtrak was established as america's rail service but from day 1 it's been plagued with problems that have never been solved. they still fail to make a profit and they still don't own the tracks. steven gardner oversees planning for amtrak. >> in order to run fast, frequent, reliable trains you need to build a system for that. >> a dedicated system. >> a dedicated system. >> but it's not just dedicated systems. it's funding new tracks across the entire amtrak service. the high-speed rail system could only go 150 miles per hour on a
8:18 am
small section of track. to compare, the bullet train can reach speeds of 200 miles an hour to make the 250-mile trip. >> we're decades behind. >> deborah hersman is president and ceo of the national safety council. >> part of it is because we don't have a funding stream that supports that initiative. >> reporter: the good news is amtrak has ordered high-speed trains with the first to be scheduled in2021. >> i think what's lagged is kind of a broader issue, which is investment in infrastructure and transportation generally, that if you look across our network, we're underinvesting in all of our assets. >> reporter: those dedicated systems are now being built, some with private money. in southern california, a high-speed rail system is now
8:19 am
under construction but will need to be patient. it won't be finished before 2029 at the earliest. but in south florida, the nation's first privately owned higher speed rail project bright line is moving faster and set for launch later this year. in florida when bright line gets up and rundowning, it will handle the 205-mile run from miami to orlando with speeds of 125 miles an hour. it's not high-speed but it's faster. >> reporter: while brightline might be new, it's not solving amtrak's problems. >> we have to rebuild and make sure it can test it on the infrastructure and we've got to to take care of it. >> reporter: in the end it all gets down to money. amtrak goes across five destinations. if the budget plan is approved,
