september 1st glenwicz, the married father of four, was on routine patrol when he radioed that he was chasing three suspicious men on foot. 17 minutes later backup officers found him dead, shot with his own gun, officials said, above his bulletproof vest. glenwicz was a beloved figure, a mentor for young people this. small tight-knit community was in mourning and on edge, virtually locked down. >> we love you, joe. >> reporter: hundreds turned ouou r a memorial honoring him. >> joe was my best friend, my world, my hero. the love of my life. >> reporter: investigators reported getting 400 tips and took dna samples from about 100 individuals, but no suspects were ever identified or apprehended. in an interview with crime watch daily gliniewicz's widow

volatile this race has begun. to that in a moment but first katy tur is here with more on mr. droump trump. good morning to you. >> reporter: trump revealed his new book not naming his rivals by name highlighting solutions. that night he was back on the attata and this time firing at jeb bush. the latest in what's become a series of attacks against his rival candidates, donald trump re-tweeting a post overnight slamming jeb bush. it features a photo montage of the former florida governor. one picture shows an image of bush next to a swastika and another shows him wearing a some breyera. the caption reads adios jeb, aka jose. the online reaction was swift. onon user responded vile attacks on your own party is how you prove you're conservative and presidential and another tweed tweeting out swastikas and racial stereotypes to attack jeb bush, very groro up. >> i do my own tweets, 90%.

>> reporter: it's not the first time trump not known for mincing words has found himself in hot water for his inflammatory tweets. last month he reposted a tweet mocking iowans that indicated ben carson was leading in the state. he later blamed an intern. >> the person thought it was a cute. i didn't think it was cute and i took it off. it wasn't a bigdeal. >> i this that really marco is overrated. >> reporter: and yesterday while promoting his latest book, trump went on the attack again, this time targeting florida senator marco rubio whose poll numbers have been steadily on the risese >> all y y have to do is look at his credit card. i mean, he's a disaster with his credit cards. he has a very bad record of finances if you look at what happened with his houses, with s, you know, he certainly lives above his means, there's no question about that. >> reporter: even with that rubio swipe, trump has been focusing more o calli out his rivals on substance lately rather than the personal atatcks, a sign he's maturing as

still, this morning he just deleted the swastika tweet, the campaign telling me that he did not see this image but that he did re-tweet it like hundreds of othersrs they jusus told that to me right now. >> he re-tweeted and hadn't looked closely tat. >> reporter: had not seen the image of the image that he re-tweeted. >> by the way, trump took a new swipes at the newront-runner on republican side as well, but dr. ben carson appears to be taking it all in stride. nbc national correspondent peter alexander has a closer look at carson's surge. peter, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, matt, good morning to you. this really has been a stunning rise. ben carson, still technically off the campaign trail right now, but try telling that to the thousands of supporters who stand in line to see him at book signings across the state of florida. donald trump may be flashy, but carson has proven to be a fe phenomenon. ben carson in florida greeting big crowds, the outsider now on an inside track to the nomination.

down so i'm not going to spend a lot of time worrying about it. >> reporter: our polls now have carson vaulting over donald trump who insists it won't last. >> when a man is weak on immigration and wants to get rid of medicare, i don't know how he stays there. >> reporter: and now a new poll out this morning taken after the last republican debate shows carson beating hillary clinton by ten points in a general election matchup. carsonon strongest support comom from evangelicals and women. >> he's just that kind of a person that makes you just want to smile when you listen to him because he is so inspiring. >> reporter: with no background in politics the retired neurosurgeon an best selling author even worked as an expert court witness, reportedly earning $750 an hour for reviewing medical records. he's appealing to independents, a double-digit advantage over inton. first known for memorably taking on president obama in 2013. >> our deficit is a big problem. >> reporter: critics say carson

he did apologize for suggesting that prison made people gay. >> because a lot of people who go into prison go into prison straight and when they come out they are gay, so did something happen while they were in there? >> reporter: but he says political correctness is ruining our country sand standing by controversial comments on islam. >> i would not advocate that we put muslim in charge of this nation, i absolutely would not agree witit that. >> reporter: and o o nazi germany. >> i think the likelihood of hitler being able to accomplish his goals would have been greatly diminished if the people had been armed. >> reporter: carson speaking softly but on the campaign trail makingng plenty ofnoise. we all agree that these polls can vary, but even donald trump concedes they generally do show a trend and our most recent poll shows the hypothetical clintotocarson matchup while clinton beats every other major republican in the race. matt and savannah. >> thank you very much. other political news, we have results from around the country on several closely

watched initiatives that were on thth ballot n.ohoh, voters rejected a measure that would have legalize the recreational and medicinal mayor wan ashe. some blame the fact that it would have given the power to grow pot to a small group of investors, including music star nick lachey and nba hall of famer oscar robertson, lachey >> let's go to houston where an ordinance designed to protect the right of gay and transgendered people failed to pass. opponents focused on one aspect of the measure that allowed the use of public rest rooms bz transgender men and women. houston's mayor who is gay called that a campaign of fearmongering but the measure failed. and san francisco voters rejected a proposal prompt the by the city's housing crisis to place some restrictions on airbnbnbnd other home sharing services limiting the number of day people could rent on the airbnb spent $8 million on ads

defeat that measure. anannow to the investigation into the deadly crash of a russian passenger plane and a new claim now that it is isis that brought down the jet. nbc chief global correspondent bill neely is in c cro again for us. bibi, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, savannah. day five, and we still don't know what caused this, but one by one they are eliminating possibilities. the desert search area has been expanded but the range of possibib causes is now narrowing. they are getting closer. investigators now focung on a few small sections of the plane. no traces of a bomb, no evidence of explosives found so far, according to reports on russian media, but the heat flash detected from the plane by a u.s. satellite proves there was anxplosion that split the plane in mid-air, the evidence now pointing towards some

catastrophic event that made a fuel tank explode or a bomb. whether it's mechananal or intentional, that's yet t be deteteined. >> reporter: all the bodies recovered are now in russia being identified. the state news agency says those in the back of the plane suffered injuries consistent with an explosion. the tail was found three miles from the rest of the plane. they are now examining a repair job on the tail that was damaged hitting the ground 14 years ago. they are also searching the airport where the plane took off, questioning those who serviced it, caterers, cleaners, baggage handlers. the terror group isis is active in egypt and claims it downed the plane. the truth will likely emerge from the two flight recordrds. investigators analyzing these now but making nothing public. and indeed making it clear that they won't s anything for a long time. within the last hour isis has repeated its claim. c news cannot authenencate this yet, but if it was a bomb, there will be evidence,

explosive residue, a timer, a fragment of a circuit boarar there is no such evidence like that for now. so spare a thought this morning for the families of all those on board, still not kwing how on earth this happened. matt, savannah. >> can you imamane. bill neely, thank you very much. we'll turn now to a story that's affecting millions of drivers all across the country. u.s. safetregulators are slapping takatatwith a hefty fineneor failing to disclose defects with air bags. nbc's tom costello has more on that. hi, tom. >> reporter: good morning, matt. sold defective air bags insisting that they were safe, but now with seven deaths and 0 injuries in the u.u., it's one of the biggest finds ever levied by u.s. regulators, the takata corporation facing a $70 million penalty for lapses

fine could grow to $200 million if the company fails to comply th a consent order.. u.s. investigatorsrsay takata failed to immediately alert regulators about air bag inflators containing ammonium nitrate, a chemical that's potentially unstable and could cause air bags to explode. >> to date these represent tours are responsible for seven u.s. deaths and nearly 100 injuries. >> reporter: in 2014, this woman was killed after her air bag ruptured in florida. attorney hank didier told me at the time shards s flying metal shot from the air bag. what happened here, as you can see the shrapnel on the floor here from where the steering column was blown apart babawards, but what wentntorward towards her are metal fragments from the inflator itself. >> reporter: just came right into her face and neck. >> literally through the bag into her neck.

is requiring them to phase out the use of ammonium nye trail.l. tatata has already recalled nearly 20 million vehicles involving a dozen automakers and the recall could still expand. in a statement takata's chairman says, quote, we deeply regret the circumstances that led to this agreement. the settlement is the an important step forward for takata that will enable us to focus on rebeblding the trust of automakers, regulators and the driving public. another development overnight, honda announcing it will no longer use takata air bags in new honda or acura models. if you're worried your car may be pararof the recall, go to safercar.gov, enter your vehicle's identification number, the v.i.n. if your car is affected can you call your dealer and hopefully arra^ge for a free repair. matt, back to you. >> let's stiti with the auto industry for a sec. you're also following that scandal with vw, and it's growing now. >> reporter: yeah, vw now says it understated the emissions on another 800,000 cars. of course, vw has already said up to 11 million of its vehicles had software that allowed them to deceive emissions testers so the size and the scope of the

twitter and see what's said about kate, a lot of positive stuff admittedly but a fair. a criticism, some of it unfair. what kate and william are really concerned with is that kind of abuse direct the at young people. they are already interested in young people's mental health. now they are taking on the online bullies. they became more aware of the growing problem after hearing from young people during charity vivits, and as new parents to 2-year-old prince george and princess charlotte, just 6 months, they really worry about the effect on children. >> who knows, prince george is probably using an ipad already like most toddlers are. >> reporter: that's why they reportedly plan to put pressure on social media company to change the statistics. 33% of teenagers have been victims of cyber bullying. 1 millionhildren were harassed, threatened or subject to other forms of cyber bullying last year while 67% of young people think cyber bullying is a problem.

let's go over to twitter, twitter is more immediate so you can take action just by hitting the threet dots there once you get a tweet you don't like and can immediately block a user or report a case right then and there. the royal family isn't the first high-profile group taking on cyber bullying, a few celebrities who have closed their twitter accounts at some point due to hateful comment. most have rejoined after a period of time though in a much more limited capacity. it's going to be interesting to see if this potential meeting between the royals and social media executives will help combat this issue that so many parents are concerned about. guys? >> i'm glad they are focused on it. >> yes. >> raising kids in the online digital age, not easy. >> and social media has to contend with that dark side of it, you know, the hate that is out there. >> that's true. coming up, another online concern. can [ barks ] come on. wait. welcome to the annual lighting of the tree.
