7:05 am
officials say there were five devices inside the backpack, one of which was described as a pipe with wires coming out of it. only one of the devices exploded. >> i don't have the expertise to determine the blast function of that, but based on this -- the loudness, i think people could have been severely hurt or injured. >> reporter: chris bolway, the mayor of elizabeth, says the backpack was first spotted in a trash can by two people sometime after 8:00 last night. >> they found it and they walked it around the corner thinking there was something of value in it. when they realized it was too heavy and emptied it out, that's when they left the area and went to police headquarters. >> the police on high alert, elizabeth's mayor says the investigation will be thorough. >> we will not know until the state police have an opportunity to examine the materials and compare to what was found in seaside park and/or chelsea, new york. that will remain under
7:06 am
investigation at this time. >> reporter: and, right now, the atf and the fbi are carrying out a raid inside a business, a few blocks from here. it is unclear if it is related to the explosives found last night. fortunately, no one was injured in that blast. and we should also note that the mayor says there were no electronic devices or cell phones used in that blast either. norah? >> michelle, thank you so much. surveillance video shows the moment a pressure cooker bomb exploded saturday night on a busy new york city street. the explosion in new york's chelsea neighborhood injured 29 people. all are okay this morning. investigators found a second bomb four blocks from the scene. that did not go off. no one has claimed responsibility. anna werner is near the scene in chelsea with the search for a suspect and a motive. >> reporter: good morning. you can see behind me much of this neighborhood is still shut down in chelsea. the pressure cooker bomb was

7:08 am
cbs news do not verify her account. >> it was wires coming out. a pressure cooker thing. >> reporter: early on saturday, a pipe bomb exploded along the course of a marine charity run in seaside park, new jersey. none of the 5,000 participants were injured but the investigators say the bombs in north and new jersey may share similar characteristics but unclear if they are link the. >> we are trying to see if there is anything we can learn. >> reporter: the nypd and the fbi are combing through the neighborhood around the blast site and reviewing surveillance footage from nearby businesses. >> here is what we know. it was intentional. it was a violatent act. certainly a criminal act. it was a bombing. >> reporter: cbs news sources tell us that police have surveillance video of a person planting at least one of the bombs here in this neighborhood of manhattan. tat suspect has not yet been identified.
7:09 am
gayle? >> thank you, anna. this morning, we are learning that police are making progress. homeland security correspondent jeff pegues is tracking the investigation now. jeff, good morning. >> good morning. late sunday, surveillance video gave investigators a solid lead. the video shows a person of interest planting at least one of the bombs in manhattan, but at this point, no one has claimed responsibility for the bombing. cbs news has learned both homemade bombs located in the chelsea neighborhood of manhattan used flip cell phones as detonators similar to the explosive that blew up in seaside park, new jersey, about 55 miles to the south. we can also confirm that both chelsea bombs contain the explosive substance tannerite which is a substance that is easily accessible, meaning it's relatively easy to purchase a substance like that. overnight five people taken into custody near a bridge in new york city by the fbi and the nypd. in this investigation, no one has been charged with a crime.
7:10 am
the manhattan bombings appeared to target two busy, but relatively, unremarkable streets. they weren't near any land $mma or any other symbolic targets. i is has used the word soldier to describe a man of accusing shoppers at a minnesota mall. cbs news has identified the suspect at dahir dane -- adan. the explosion happened shortly after the bombing in new york city. dean reynolds has more in minneapolis. >> reporter: good morning. the victims of saturday's attack range in age from 15 to 53 years of age. all of them are expected to survive. the mayor of st. cloud said the man involved, identified as a naturalized american citizen from somalia is dead because an off-duty police officer was in
7:11 am
the right place at the right time. >> we are currently investigating this as a potential act of terrorism. >> reporter: police say the attack happened saturday after 8:00 p.m. when dahir adan entered a mall in a sears on the southeast corner. he asked people if they were muslim and used a knife to stab those who said they were not. the rampage ended minutes later at a macy's store where adan was killed by off on-duty police officer jason falconer. >> having witnessed what he did, not only he fired, the suspect went down. he came back up three different occasion. >> this guy comes out. he is african-american wearing a blue or black security outfit. >> reporter: ryan schleeb had just entered the mall what he was tacked. >> i knew he was going to --
7:12 am
strike me so i trieded to embrace and he stabbed me in the side of the head. >> reporter: he fell down and watched as adan continued through the mall. >> no alarm or mall security anywhere. >> reporter: minnesota is home to the largest somalia population in the u.s. one that has been scrutinized for its threat of radical domination. adan had lived in the united states a number of of years. on sunday, they gathered to condemn the violence. >> any evil is evil. it does not mean that one person does anything -- resent everyone in our community. that is very wrong! >> reporter: now it's unclear to the fbi whether isis actually planned this attack or simply inspired it. to hear adan had three encounters with minnesota law enforcement in the past, although most of them were for traffic violations. charlie? >> dean, thanks. president obama and other world leaders arriving in new
7:13 am
york for the united nations general assembly. new york governor andrew cuomo ordered a thousand more used officers to parol negotiating. he is with us from outside of his new york city office. good morning, governor. >> good morning, charlie. how are you? >> good. you do not believe what has happened in new york is international terrorism? yes? >> well, yesterday, what we said was, i believe it was clearly a terrorist activity. prosecutors will be careful because they want to make sure they have all of the elements of a crime, but you set off two bombs in new york city, charlie, that is terrorism. it's with an intent to cause damage and danger and intimidate a civilian population, so, by definition, is terrorism. what we didn't know yesterday and we don't know yet is anyone taking credit and is it linked
7:14 am
to international terrorism? we hadn't heard from isis, et cetera, we didn't have a suspect that was from foreign origin so that was the open question. i suspect we may be getting an answer on that today and there may very well be a foreign link and then it would be foreign terrorism. but we didn't have that yesterday. >> why do you suspect that? >> as the investigation is proceeding, and it's proceeding rapidly, by the way, you've had a number of bombs here. you had bombs in new jersey, as you've been reporting, bombs in new york, elizabeth, new jersey, seaside park, new jersey, chelsea, some were unexploded. from the bombs that were undetonated, you can often get good evidence. you can get fingerprints, dna, et cetera. and the investigation is now targeting certain individuals
7:15 am
who might suggest that this was -- that this did have a foreign connection. let's put it that way. i want to be careful what i say because we are in the middle of the investigation, charlie. >> i understand. >> let me ask you -- >> but i think that is fair to say. >> governor, it's norah o'donnell here. what about the five men who were detained overnight? i understand they are being questioned now. do you believe they are connected? >> the five men are being questioned. i believe the investigation will soon target an individual who we believe is actually in the midst of this situation. and that, i believe, is the next development. >> let me ask you this. the connection between the bombs in chelsea and new jersey, is this part of a larger threat facing this area? >> we don't have evidence of that. you have some similarities among
7:16 am
the bombs and the way they were made and the way they were put together, and some of the technology that was used in the bombs. so there is some suggestion that there might have been a common identity across all of the bombs. but, again, this is preliminary. the investigation is proceeding quickly. i believe we will soon be targeting an individual, a person of interest, and it may very well turn out that there was a foreign connection to this incident which, yesterday, i think it was clear was an act of terrorism. the only question was was there a foreign connection? >> do you suspect isis at all? >> i suspect there may be a foreign connection. that's what we are hearing today, as the investigation goes on. but, again, i was the former
7:17 am
attorney general in new york and i did many -- i participated in many of these investigations. they take different twists and turns. >> got it. >> and you want to be careful what you say early on because you want to protect the information, but that would be my guess. >> all right, governor cuomo, thank you. we know the investigation is early. you said it's your worst nightmare. a lot of people feel the same. thank you for joining us today. hillary clinton and donald trump are condemning the attacks in new york and new jersey and minnesota. in statements, though, the candidates offered their support for the victims. trump went a step further, though, saying, failed obama/hillary clinton policies won't keep us safe. i will make america safe again. >> trump and clinton are tied at 42% in the latest cbs news poll taken across the key battleground states. nancy cordes is covering the count down to election. >> reporter: trump is trying to project strength after the bombing.
7:18 am
clinton, steadiness. >> it's always wiser to wait until you have information before making conclusions. >> reporter: their vastly different styles are reflected in the latest cbs news battleground tracker. trump is seen as far more likely to change washington. while voters think clinton would be better at handling the day-to-day job of being president. voters are so divided that 83% of republicans believe the country will be damaged beyond repair if clinton is president. even more, democrats believe that about trump. this weekend, clinton's running mate said he is one of them. >> donald trump as chiommander chief scares me to death. >> reporter: but recent polls show clinton's interest dropping among young people. the clinton team said it's clear the campaign must do more to earn their vote, insisting it has ramped up efforts to engage
7:19 am
millennial voters with more appearances by bernie sanders and chelsea clinton and elizabeth warren who trumped for clinton in ohio this week. >> trump has more with the ku klux klan than he did with the republican party. >> reporter: obama tried to emphasize another voting bloc. >> go vote! >> reporter: he would take it as a personal insult if black voters don't turn out for clinton the way they did for him. >> on the progress we have made is at stake in this election. >> reporter: but in a series of tweets sunday night, trump argued there hasn't been much progress. under the leadership of obama and clinton, americans have experienced more attacks at home than victories abroad, he wrote. time to change the playbook. both candidates will have an opportunity to practice some state craft this afternoon. they will both be meeting with foreign leaders at the u.n. general assembly in new york. >> nancy, thank you. ahead, a florida doctor

7:31 am
doctor who caught the zika virus. he says he wasn't test at first because they told him he wasn't pregnant. an incredible story and that is ahead. time to show you some of the morning's headlines from around the globe. "the new york times" has fallout from an accidental air strike in eastern syria. the attack on saturday was carried out by american-led coalition forces in detr sps ezz ezzor. american officials reject the criticism. the herald at rockhill south carolina says the ntsb is now investigating a deadly bus crash in north carolina. this bus was carrying a football team, two players from clinton college, the driver, and an 8-year-old boy were killed on saturday. the boy's father was part of the coaching staff. the bus was traveling from rockhill to fayetteville, north carolina, for a football game.
7:32 am
a tire blew and the bus struck a median guardrail. the arizona republic says federal investigators want to know why a plane carrying sky divers crashed into a house. the plane burst into a fireball as it hurdled to the ground saturday night. four sky drivers jumped to safety and the pilot who was a sky diver jumped last and he suffered burns. the residents of the home outside of phoenix managed to escape without injury. the huntsville time says the colonial pipeline company may be ready to restart a leaking line later this week. a segment of that pipe has filled an estimated 336,000 gallons of gasoline in shelby county, alabama. the 36-inch line is estimated to supply the east coast up to 40% of its gasoline supply. with that pipeline out of service, drivers in the south have faced a spike in prices and scattered gas station outages. new york's daily news says opening states are set to begin in the so-called bridgegate
7:33 am
trial. bridget kelly is one of the witnesses and bill beroni a former executive director of the port authority. they are accused of closing down lanes on the george washington bridge three years ago. they were closed for four days allegedly to take revenge on a local mayor and caused a big traffic mess. christie denies knowing anything about this plot. we have some breaking news in the search for suspects in the new york city bombing. sources tell cbs news the fbi is looking for 28-year-old ahmed raomani and just released this photo of him. the blast injured 29 people saturday night. the surveillance video gave investigators a solid lead. the video showed a man planting at least one of those bombs. >> we are following a raid that is going on in elizabeth, new jersey, right now. atf and fbi agents are inside a business and searching a location not far from where more bombs were found overnight.
7:34 am
police used a robot overnight to detonate a bomb near a train station. officials say there were five devices in the backpack, one of which was described as a pipe with wires coming out of it. we will continue to bring updates on these developing investigations. with american facing challenges all over the world, cia director john brennan says his work force needs to evolve and diversify to meet that threat. jeff pegues traveled with brennan on a recruitment trip and got unprecedented access to the cia director. >> reporter: nobody knows more about terrorism than john brenn brennan. he lived in the middle east and speaks arabic and has 30 years of security training. he believes the terrorist organization's days are numbered. we interviewed the cia director several times over a 24-hour period.
7:35 am
john brennan's motorcade arrived at andrews air force base. shortly before this unmarked air force jet was scheduled to take off. this is is how the cia director travels. the plane is equipped with secure systems ensuring he can communicate with the president during a crisis. we were headed to alabama. the cia did not allow us to record video during the flight. but we were permitted to tape the audio. during an hour and a half interview on bore, the director told us he worried about isis' success and inspiring attacks worldwide. >> we have invested in this the past several years and right now i think they are trying to reap the harvest of those investments. >> reporter: while the cia focuses on external threats he is looking within the agency itself. in 2013 he ordered a study on diversity. the results? racial and ethnic minorities
7:36 am
make up 24% of the work force and 10% of the senior intelligence positions. on the day we followed him, brennan was visiting miles college, a historically black college near birmingham. >> everybody at the agency looked like me and thought like me and had my background and experience, i think we would be subject to tremendous group think and we would not be open to new ideas and new perspectives. >> reporter: did u.s. intelligence, for some of those reasons miss what was bubbling under the arab spring? >> no matter how much insight we had into governments were thinking and reacting we didn't have the pulse of the street as best we should have. >> reporter: isis grew partly out of discontent in the arab world. the terror group inspired the deadly attacks in san bernardino and orlando. and in europe, deployed cells to carry out the attacks in paris and brussels. do you think the american people and the people of europe should expect more of these attacks?
7:37 am
>> i think isis' capability to carrying out attacks outside of the syria/iraq theater will continue and increase. >> reporter: his experience spans 36 years, he can't remember a time when the country faced so many complex and dangerous threats. as we rode in his motorcade, we asked about recent cyber attacks like those on athlete medical records and files of the democratic national committee and election databases in two states. experts say the hacks traced back to russia. going forward, do you expect there will be more cyber intrusions from russia or russians leading up to the november 8th election? >> well, i believe that, as we come to the election, there will be additional attempts to exploit to collect, possibly to
7:38 am
disclose information is related somehow to the presidential campaign. >> reporter: he was reluctant to he not a democrat or republican but he will not waterboard terror suspects even though republican nominee donald trump has endorsed the idea. >> i would refuse to carry out a direction to conduct waterboarding. i will just say no. >> reporter: even to a president? >> absolutely. even to a president. >> reporter: this seems like an odd place for the cia director. for brennan coming to birmingham is also about understanding evil. in 1963 in the midst of the civil rights move, three ku klux klan planted die might sticks outside of a church and the explosion killed four young black girls. >> this is what we need to do to keep this country safe and strong and keep its citizens
7:39 am
secure. >> reporter: brennan says the core of isis taken off the battlefield but take time for the tentacles to decay. the tentacles he is referring to are the sympathizers and operatives willing to carry out attacks. >> anything you can tell us about the suspect we just heard about? >> we just learned, obviously, that there is a wanted poster that is out. police are looking for this man. they consider him armed and dangerous. so this, in a lot of ways, changes the narrative of what happened here. there appears to be some sort of international connection to terrorism in this case. and so investigators say this may be part of a cell. this man may be part of a cell. so that is the latest news we have. >> what is interesting no one seems to have put their own life willing to commit sued in order to launch an explosion. they put it in a dumpster and they were not there.
7:40 am
>> the thing about isis and cia director and fbi director have said about this threat from isis. it continues to evolve. as u.s. law enforcement evolves and tries to adjust, isis is almost one step ahead. but that is typical when you have cases like these, because, often, offense comes before defense. that's the way the cia director put it and that released it out to me. offense comes before defense. >> i think the message loud and clear this morning is that our law enforcement is on it and they move quickly. they will find you and catch you. >> they are on top of it. thank you, jeff. we will continue to gather new new york and new jersey. up next, former homeland security adviser to george w. bush fran townsend just arrived. you're watching "cbs this morning." she will join us after the break. your time, your actions, your money. it had me. it had me. i would not be a non-smoker today

we continue to get new information on a man wanted in connection to saturday's explosion in new york city. the fbi says 28-year-old ahmad chan rahami last known address
7:45 am
was in elizabeth, new jersey, where atf and fbi agents are searching a location right now. fran townsend joins u.s. what do we know about this suspect? >> we got a wanted poster from the fbi. clearly to identify him that quickly a couple of things happened. we know there was a man on the surveillance tape planting the bomb. we also know that just the natural investigative techniques as they would have dusted for fingerprints and looks for presencic looking to see hair, fiber, anything to help them identify that man in the surveillance tape or an individual connected with this and that is the kind of sort of everyday detective work and the forensics has helps them to identify the individual he 5'6" and 200 pounds.
7:46 am
it doesn't seem like a high traffic area that he targeted. >> the area surprises me and he wasn't willing to kill himself. whether it's the dumpster in chelsea, we don't know yet, but it certainly raises the question whether or not this is related to the elizabeth, new jersey, train station overnight, where there were pipe bombs or the seaside heights against the marathon. >> what about the investigation? who lead this investigation? the fbi, homeland security, nypd? >> well, that is very interesting because it depends whether you call it terrorism. if it's run individual it's a local investigation. clearly this is now leading to more of a feel of a terrorism investigation and i suspect that the fbi is leading this investigation. they are certainly leading the one in new jersey. >> the question whether this is a terror cell and linked to international terrorism, governor cuomo, this morning, in response to charlie's question clearly shifted a bit and said there appears to be foreign connection at this point. what does that mean in terms of
7:47 am

♪ it is monday, september 19th, 2016. welcome back to "cbs this morning." there is more real news ahead, including the man named as a suspect in this weekend's new york city bombing. the latest from the investigation of that attack and the discovery of other devices. first, here's a look at today's "eye opener" at 8:00. >> investigators combing through evidence to see if there was any link between here and those explosions over the weekend. that pressure cooker bomb was filled with shrapnel and blew up in a heavily traffic street. >> sources tell cbs news the fbi is looking for 28-year-old ahmed khan rahami. >> it may very well turn out there was a foreign connection.
8:01 am
yesterday, i think it's clear it was an act of terrorism. the only question, was it a foreign connection? >> the mayor of st. cloud said the man involved is dead because an off-duty police officer was in the right place at the right time. both candidates will have an opportunity to practice some state craft and both meeting with foreign leaders at the u.n. general assembly. >> when you started playing in stadiums, did you plan for that in any way? >> no, no, not really. i don't think we planned for anything, you know? >> we just went on with what we had. >> the noise was constant. >> i mean, at first, that screaming was great. because it meant we were a success. it's just like, she love -- ah! whoa! i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. the fbi has just identified a suspect in connection with the
8:02 am
weekend bombing in you know. he is 28-year-old ahmed khan rahami whose last known address was in new jersey. the fbi released this image of the suspect this morning. >> law enforcement source tell cbs news they believe the suspect is connected to all of the incidents in the area over the past weekend. they say rahami is the bomb maker. anna werner in is a neighborhood in chelsea, new york, where a blast injured dozens on saturday. >> reporter: good morning. we understand this is the man police say was seen on surveillance video in both locations, both here on 23rd street and four blocks north on 27th street. as a reminder, this is where on 23rd street on saturday night that pressure cooker bomb filled with shrapnel blew up and 29 people were injured and, fortunately, nonlife-threatening injuries. they are all out of the hospital as of this morning. but, again, an hour and a half later on saturday night, four blocks north of here on 27th
8:03 am
street, police located another pressure cooker device that was designed to do harm. in fact, sources have told ycbs news this blast could have caused a wide blast and done property damage and injured many people. that device, fortunately, was disarmed and dismantled and they are using that for evidence. again, rahami wend is seen on surveillance video in both of these locations. norah? >> anna, thank you. we are following an ongoing raid in elizabeth, new jersey, the last known location where the suspected bomb maker lived. atf and fbi agents are searching through a business not far from there where police robot blew up another bomb overnight. it was in a bag with fire devices found near a railroad bridge. officials have now found ten explosive devices in new york and new jersey. this began with an explosion in seaside park, new jersey, saturday morning. one of three devices there exploded along the course of a
8:04 am
marine charity run. none of the runners were hurt. new york governor andrew cuomo say the investigators suspect a foreign connection. homeland security correspondent jeff pegues is here again this morning 37 he's on the run and considered dangerous? >> oh, yeah. . a lot going on and you can see that from the headlines. police are clearly closing in on the suspect. i'm struck by the fact that investigations like this it's not the big event that draws the attention of law enforcement like the explosion, it's the small little details like the flip phones that connect the three incidents together, seaside park, and the incidents in chelsea. the small details and, clearly, police have the evidence they feel they need to name this person as a suspect and put his face on that wanted poster and go after him and that is what they are doing now. >> do they have evidence of his connection with an international terror organization like isis? >> they may. the fact they already have a photograph of this guy says that
8:05 am
perhaps he was maybe on their radar before that. that is something that we have to look into. but they have a colored photograph of him for their wanted poster. so that, alone, suggests that they -- >> isis has not taken credit? >> not yet which is interesting. yesterday, with the minnesota stabbing, you know, a few hours after that, isis came out and claimed that person as an isis soldier. we haven't heard anything yet in terms of manhattan and seaside park, but that could be coming. sometimes it doesn't come within 24 hours. >> the flip phone, does it mean it can be activated remotely and will only thing that ties the three incidents together? >> not the only thing. they have the surveillance video. as you all know, there is than incredible network of surveillance cameras in the city of new york and that is what they have been use. of course, if he was traveling down south 55 miles south to
8:06 am
seaside park, new jersey, perhaps there are toll images of him as well. >> what about the five men? what can you tell us about that, anything? >> they are still on the radar, but they have not been named as suspects yet. >> all right. thank you so much. appreciate it, jeff pegues. we will continue to follow the investigation and bring you new developments as they come. london mayor sadiq khan is outspoken. he is one of the eight children born of pakistani immigrants. the former human rights lawyer was elected in may as a first muslim to lead a capital. >> he's on a five-day trip. he took aim of divisive talk about muslims during the presidential campaign. ed, quote, we play straight into the hands of those who seek to divide us of extremist and terrorists around the world when we imply that it is not possible to hold western values dear and to be a muslim.
8:07 am
the mayor joins us now and we are pleased to have you here. >> great to be here. really is. >> let me just begin you said in a city that has been hit by violence. you're in another city hit by violence. what do we need to know and do? >> first of all, london stands shoulder-to-shoulder with new york. the two have a lot in common. one of the things i know as the mayor of london is mayor de blasio, the police service here like my police service and worry about this on a daily basis how we keep our city safe and remain vigilant and how we ensure the police have all of the resources they need, so they will be grappling who is responsible and analyzing the ctc tv and do more to keep us safe. my message to new yorkers and our message to people from london, you have 36,000 police offices in new york and 36,000 police offices have the eyes and ears of.5 million new yorkers is a powerful thing. >> what do you specifically
8:08 am
mean? >> well, one of the way we police in london, we have a phrase police by consent. that means as brilliant as the police is, as brilliant as the security services is, they rely pulling intelligence information to the communities. one way we have been successful -- >> do you mean the muslim community? >> everyone. it could be parents, big brothers, big sisters, neighbors, teachers, friends of, everyone has a role to play. you live in a great city of new york and i live in a great city of london but new york is the second biggest city after london. >> you're mayor of london and you've been a vociferous voices against donald trump. >> in my defense, you know, i have the privilege of being elected the mayor of greatest city in the world this may. and it was donald trump who said prior to my election he wanted to stop muslims coming into america. when i was elected, he said he would make an exception for me.
8:09 am
now, according to my mom, i'm exceptional. there are tens and thousands of proud americans who are proud muslims. there are millions of proud brits who are proud muslims. i don't make an exception for me. >> if you're saying, you, in fact, do this, you are giving fodder to, you had d.a.s.t. or isis or isil, whatever the name of the islamic state you use, that tactics like this play into their hands and their recruitment. i want to go to another point about them. are we looking at the new face of d.a.s.h. in terms of what is happening in london and in new york and in nice, france, and so many other places around the world? are we under a state of constant siege? >> well, we shouldn't allow ourselves to be under siege and not allow anybody to lead our
8:10 am
lives the way they want to. it's not outside of our countries and outside of our cities wishing to harm us and destroy our life. i think afraid the bad news people born and raised in london and born and raised in america and europe want to destroy our life. the bet anecdote is it's possible to be somebody with a western values and mainstream muslim and teach our youngsters resilience. if you're a young brit or a young american and somebody comes along to try and groom you or brainwash you or intimidate you a preacher of hate and he says, look, the west hates you, there is a jewish conspiracy, you can say what are you talking about? i'm a doctor. my what are you talking about? my best friend is a jew and what are you talking about? i'm proud to be an american. what are you talking about? this country is a country you can fulfill your potential if you work hard, you give a working hand. i want to give youngster that resilience so they can counter
