this human rights lawyer says that can include foreigners. if i'm an american, i could be extradited to china. >> you don't have to do anything bad. what is to stop china from making up evidence? >> reporter: hong kong's chief executive, who is appointed by beijing, says she hasn't sold out hong kong. but in a separate speech, condemned the protesters as rioters. that designation means protesters may be subject to very long prison terms if arrested. that's a risk many are willing to take, especially if we get closer to the bill's passage. they want to do that by next week. in the dominican republic, five people have now been detained on the apparent assassination attempt on former red sox slugger, david ortiz.

mola lenghi has the latest. >> reporter: officials say cruz is the gunman who shot david ortiz sunday night in a brazen attack at a nightclub in santa domingo. police described this as a hit job, for $8,000, involving two vehicles and multiple suspects, who tracked the big leaguer while at a club with friends. the gunman was on a motorcycle driven by this man. surveillance shows ortiz being shot in the back at point-blank range. cruz is being charged with attempted murder. garcia is charged as his accomplice. garcia said he is a fan and did not know what was about to happen. after two surgeries, ortiz continues to recover at a hospital in boston. his wife said, he will remain in the icu for the coming days. the attack on the slugger, known

as big papi, has rocked the sports world. pedro martinez played with ortiz for two years, winning a world series championship in 2004. >> i'm so disappointed to know that, someone like david, who saved so many lives, can have someone after his life. and i'm sorry. i'm sorry. but it hurts me. it hurts me. >> reporter: authorities told us here at the attorney general's office today, they are investigating this shooting, including who ordered the hit on ortiz and what the motive was. four suspects remain at large. president trump continues to defy congressional overnight in his administration. in his latest move, he exerted executive privilege over

documents that lead to the citizenship question in the 2020 sentence. meanwhile, don jr. testified behind closed doors talking to congress. don jr. was asked about a meeting with a russian lawyer and to secure a trump tower moscow deal. michael cohen said he had briefed trump jr. repeatedly. >> do you recall how many of the iefings e hav been? >> approximately ten in total. >> reporter: trump jr. insisted today, he did not lie to congress. >> not at all. >> reporter: across the capitol, another vote to hold the

attorney general in contempt of congress and the commerce secretary, too. the democrats who lead the house oversight committee said the men had stonewalled efforts to investigate how a controversial, new citizenship question ended up in the u.s. census. >> it's designed to intimidate and instill fear. >> reporter: the administration exerted executive privilege over the documents that congress wants, as the president defended the new question. >> when you have a scensus and you're not allowed to talk about whether someone's a citizen or not, doesn't sound good to me. president trump hosted poland's president at the white house. they enjoyed a high-profile military flyover. >> reporter: a single f-35 fighter jet flew over the white house, celebrating two things president trump is fond of --

a good deal and a good show. he watched the display with polish president duda and their wives, minutes before making this announcement. >> i was pleased that poland announced the intent to purchase 32 american-made f-35 fighter aircraft, like you just saw. >> reporter: the f-35, the most expensive weapon ever, is projected to top $1 trillion over its life span. the defense deal with warsaw also includes the deployment of 1,000 to 2,000 u.s. troops to poland, which will cover the cost to support them. >> we would take them out of germany or take them from another location. >> reporter: duda suggested more service members and suggested setting up a base called ft. trump. the polish president talked about the need to beef up security in the region, in response to heightened

bingo. >> reporter: meet dave. yesterday, we watched as he planted the last of his corn crop on the 1,000 acres he farms. and just started planting his soybeans. both about six weeks delayed from his target date. his farm, like so many others, had been waterlogged by record rainfall. >> we fought rain and mother nature. >> reporter: last month, the u.s. suffered its second-rainiest month on record, much of it occurring in american states like illinois and iowa, all at the height of planting season. that rain and hardening of the soil on sunny days, has stunted his corn crop. you need almost perfect conditions to make a go of it this year. >> we need picture-perfect conditions to get twir ayield. >> reporter: what are the odds to have a perfect balance of sun and rain? >> let's go to vegas instead.

your odds are better. >> reporter: the rough weather and the ongoing trade war with china moved the trump administration to offer farmers $16 billion, to help them and help him retain their allegiance in 2020. like most farmers, he does not welcome tariffs but believe it is a way the president is applying leverage to make trade more fair. do you feel like a pawn in the chess game being played? >> yes and no. i believe in president trump. he seems harsh right now. but he's a businessman and he's trying to make this fair trade. that's all he's trying to do is make it fair. >> reporter: now, all dave has right now are these tiny, little plants, just barely poking their heads through the ground. they're supposed to be knee-high by now. but it will take several more weeks for them to get there, if they ever do. uber has joined a growing list of companies ded to putting lf-drivi cars on the

ro. some analys that unless uber vs i its fleet, the company may never turn a profit. uber has a top-secret testing facility in pittsburgh. >> reporter: uber is setting its self-driving car future in part on this vehicle. we'll show you more of it here in a minute. let's make a bit of news. uber plans to continue its testing in san francisco and toronto by the end of the year. it's a crawl, walk, run approach that uber says grows out of a focus on safety. driving down make believe lane is what uber hopes is a real future. this is uber's self-driving test track in pittsburgh. the roads draw their name from "mr. roger's neighborhood." what is happening here is far

from child's play. we took a ride with the chief scientist. is this car as good of a driver as the average human is? >> it is. >> reporter: on this 54-acre facility, uber is building its return to autonomous driving after the crash where a self-driving uber hit and killed a woman in tempe, arizona. there's a lot of skepticism of self-driving cars. and in the aftermath of that accident, there's more skepticism about uber and self-driving cars. how are you going to convince me or my mother that she should get in the back of one? >> by demonstration. by showing the system works. it's by not saying it, but proving it. >> reporter: eric leads the autonomous driving unit. after uber's fatal accident, the number of people who said they were afraid to ride in a self-driving car, rose to tech

improvements are such that that kind of accident wouldn't happen again? >> i would say yes. it's enthusiastic and pres presumptuous to think that there will never be an accident. >> reporter: the program was halted as the company had a safety review. they added a safety driver. uber limited on-road testing in december. but most of the development work is happening here on the site of an old steel mill. steven lesh oversaw the design. >> it's hidden in this plate here. there's liquid cooling. >> reporter: if the computer is doing the driving, the ultimate control will be at the passenger's fingertips. >> there's a button that you can press and the computer will find a safe place to pull the car

over. >> reporter: right now, the car is driving itself? >> yeah. >> reporter: the cars are cautious, operating at 25 miles per hour or less, allowing more decision time. even uber admits, they sometimes fail tests. >> our approach isn't going to be, it's ready, hey, everybody, it's ready. our approach is, it's not ready yet. this vehicle is not ready yet. we believe this vehicle can do it. but today, it isn't there. >> reporter: tim stevens from cnet's "road show." >> this is fundamental to uber's business. if they don't get drivers out of cars, they won't be a vilible business. >> reporter: drive ai has a shuttle service in texas and ford is testing on the streets of miami. there's approximately 40,000 traffic deaths in the u.s. every year. the promise of the self-driving car is the possibility they could reduce or eliminate the 94% of crashes caused by human

error. >> it's one of the hardest engineering challenges of our generati generation. >> reporter: here's a look at this third generation autonomous vehicle for uber. it will be the first one that will come off the line with the intent of being driven by a computer. it can close its own doors. it has redundant breaking and steering. and most of the sensors, except for the thing up here -- all of the doohickeys that used to be on the vehicle are tucked inside the car.

and to see a picture of my birth mother and to find out i have siblings and i look like i belong. it was overwhelming. >> reporter: for schubert, the side job requires hours a day, while juggling his full-time job, high school. it sounds like he pours himself into it. as a mom, does that worry you? >> yes. i also want him to enjoy life. >> reporter: schubert has worked with people all over the country. but he found, perhaps, his most fulfilling case, much closer to home. >> i've known you for so long, how did i not know you were adopted? >> reporter: he helped his friend find her mother. but her mom wanted no contact. >> she doesn't want to get to know me. it's her decision. >> reporter: are you really okay with that? >> i don't know.

>> reporter: thin, sen, she got courage to dig into her dad's side. >> it's a business card with her father or uncle on it. a picture of the person i'm looking for somewhere, it's the internet. there has to be one. >> reporter: 30 minutes later, he found her dad and more. >> hi, jasmine. my name is tammy. i'm reaching out because i think we're siblings. >> reporter: our camera was there the first time she met her half-sister. when you saw each other's faces, you saw each other live -- >> it was awesome. it was so cool. >> we clicked right away, though. >> reporter: she is going to be an aunt for the first time. underhill is having a baby. >> i remember the texts, like, of sammie saying, i'm going to be an aunt.
