"caught on camera: a hard day's work." hello, i'm contessa brewer. welcome to "caught on camera." one of the most embarrassing moments ever at the worst possible time in the worst possible place -- on the job. in this story you'll see professionals doing what they do best until they trip up or slip up and then go with the old saying, laugh at yourself and the world will laugh with you. >> this is fashion week over in paris. there was a problem out there today. a model fell down twice. >> it looked so funny. i'm still laughing when i see this video. how is that possible to fall like that? >> you're just tickled over that. >> it was clear i don't have this anymore. i hope they go to commercial now because i'm about to lose my job. [ laughter ] >> wait a minute. let's start over from the
12:02 pm
beginning. kamila is a supermodel living in poland. jim vance is a veteran newscaster from washington, d.c. they may live worlds apart, but jim and kamila will forever be linked to each other and it's all because of a pair of ridiculously high heels, a watering can, and one very embarrassing video that went viral. kamila loves her job and was particularly excited to be booked for a fall fashion show, being put on by one of her favorite designers. >> i love vivian west. she's an amazing designer, so when i went for the casting and i got the job, i was so happy. >> at least until the spring/summer 2007 show turned into the fall show. prior to her stumble, kamila had been through a fitting for the spring/summer show and
12:03 pm
everything had gone smoothly. >> i went for the fitting, and everything was all right. tried the shoes. the clothes were made perfectly for me. >> and since the theme of the show was springtime, kamila was given a special prop. >> they gave me a watering can, and the idea was for me to walk outside with the watering can and put the water on the flowers and keep walking until the end and back. and on the rehearsal, everything, okay, she was okay, watering can, okay. >> unbeknownst to her, there was a last-minute addition right before the show. her watering can had been filled to the brim. >> it was so heavy, i couldn't lift it up. now i have to keep walking with this in this shoes. >> no human being can walk in those things. >> it was like your foot is put in a funny way, so it's hard to walk. >> the watering can was bad enough, but what was so funny
12:04 pm
was the desperate attempt of this, i'm sure, wonderful woman to stay vertical with these absurd shoes. >> jim prides himself on taking his job very seriously, but not on this day. >> and when she went down again, it was like, oop, there she goes again. that was embarrassing. this was at least the second time. >> well, you all are just really tickled by that, aren't you? you try walking in those shoes. >> we want to apologize. >> hold on, hold on. >> nothing could have prepared kamila or jim for the attention that came once their video went viral. >> i was the star. i was everywhere. i was in the newspaper, in every single news from australia to new york.
12:05 pm
>> there was not a continent except antarctica from which i have not heard. >> and then they put the movie on youtube, so everyone like -- i wasn't kamila anymore. but i was, oh, this is the girl from the vivian westwood show. >> for both of them there's a silver lining. >> i'm really happy that something i did causes other people to feel a little bit of joy. >> hold on, hold on, hold on. >> everyone can have a rough day, but it doesn't mean anything. next time you need to wake up and do your job as good as you can. coming up, a 911 operator's worst nightmare comes true. >> what's the emergency? >> there's a fire. >> i had to ask her twice to make sure i had the right address. and i realized it was my house. >> and a city bus worker's on-the-job catastrophe. >> i look out the windshield and realize the bridge pillar is coming and we're not stopping.
12:06 pm

12:09 pm
what's your emergency? >> there's a fire, a big fire. >> i had to ask her twice to make sure i had the right address. >> the flames are about 100 feet in the air. >> i realized it was my house. >> for veteran 911 operator mike bose, this is not a typical day at the office. bose, along with his parents, have lived in quincy, massachusetts, for years. >> it's a nice neighborhood right across from a school. never any trouble on the street. we'd have everybody over during the holidays, christmas, thanksgiving. kids would always stop by. kids were there. it was great. >> bose always enjoys his job with the city and provides -- prides himself on staying cool under the pressure. >> okay, was it a motor vehicle accident? >> the people of quincy want
12:10 pm
someone who's on the other end who won't go crazy or lose it when you call 911 or lose it when you call. you have to stay calm and help the city out. >> friday, september 25th, 2009, bose's shift starts like any other. >> it was a very busy night. about 10:30, 10:45 it actually started to slow down. we figured we had another hour left on the shift, then we'll be gone and the night will be over. >> but for bose his night is just starting when this 911 call is received. the call is from his neighbor. >> 911, what's your emergency? >> there's a fire next door to my house. 102 hollis avenue. >> let me get the fire department. stay on the phone. >> okay. >> 911 all at once, nine calls started coming in. we figured because of the time of night, it was going to be a car accident. so the first call we picked up that i received was my next-door neighbor saying the neighbor's garage and house was on fire. there was an explosion. when i asked her the address,
12:11 pm
she told me it's 99 hollis ave. i had to ask twice to make sure i had the right address and i realized it was my house. >> a neighbor catches it all on camera. not only is bose's house on fire, but his parents are inside. >> 911, what's your emergency? >> there's a fire, big fire at 99 hollis avenue. >> a fire or a fight? >> the whole place, the garage and everything is on fire. this is michael bose's mother. >> okay, mrs. bose, we have it. we'll be right there. >> thank you. >> the first reaction was to make sure my parents were safe. they were in the house, and i tried calling several times. there was no answer. >> mike o'shea is the neighbor who captures it all on camera. >> flames were about 100 feet into the air, and, yeah, you could definitely feel the heat and you could see on the houses next to it the paint was just melting and chipping away. >> within minutes, bose arrives on the scene. fortunately, his parents escape the burning home as they make their 911 call. >> the first thing i know is my
12:12 pm
parents were on the street with my neighbor. i knew they were fine. it was almost work like slow motion when you're walking. you don't believe that something's going on and when you look in the back, i could see down the driveway. there was no garage. it was gone. there was heavy fire in the back so i knew the kitchen, the bedroom area was going to be gone. the roof was gone, the second floor was gone. >> as soon as they got it under control, they started smashing out the windows and laying into the upstairs area of the house with hoses. >> bose realizes that everything he and his parents own is destroyed. >> the new tv i bought, gone. computers, gone. everything you knew that was inside the house was gone. nothing left. just the shirt on our back and that was all we had. >> fortunately bose's cousin is a quincy firefighter who arrives first on the scene. >> he ran into the house. and there were several pictures of grandkids, wedding pictures of my parents, he was able to save all the pictures that were in there. it meant a lot. when something like this happens, you have friends that come together, but the city of quincy and the quincy police
12:13 pm
department have been unbelievable, they're with you 24 hours a day. they're helping out. they're doing what they can, even their families, wives, girlfriends, even the kids get involved, which is unbelievable. >> for o'shea who witnesses the fire, the scene has a dramatic impact. >> it's sad. it's very sad. i went out a couple of days later and bought more smoke detectors. >> despite the devastating fire, bose has an optimistic attitude. >> thank you, sergeant. >> my main thing is my parents and my neighbor got out and no injuries. nobody was hurt, no lives were lost. the fire department, nobody was injured. it's a house that can be rebuilt. everything can be replaced. it's going to take awhile, but we can get back. >> within two weeks bose is back on the job working the 911 phone lines. >> one of the first calls we took last night was for a house fire. at first it was -- normal routine. transferred to the fire department and sent a cruiser down there and you have to be there when they call 911. that's what we do.
12:14 pm
>> from one dedicated city worker to another. on a saturday evening in albuquerque, new mexico, a bus driver's routine ride takes a frightening turn when he slams into another vehicle then crashes into a bridge pillar. it all starts a little after 5:00 p.m. on october 17th, 2009. the bus drops off several passengers at a busy stop and is heading west on central avenue toward oak street, not far from the university of new mexico campus. albert sanduval is the bus driver. >> i took off and i was just driving and i was going right through my green light and about the middle of the intersection, i looked and there was a little car right in front of me. >> the incoming car, which is turning left in front of the
12:15 pm
bus, is not slowing down and the two vehicles collide. >> not even really time to look in the mirror and tell anybody, you know, to brace yourself or nothing it happened that quick. >> christian moore is the security guard onboard the bus. >> i hold onto the bar in front of me and try and stable myself. i looked out the windshield and realized that the bridge pillar is coming and we're not stopping. >> not only does the bus hit the car, but the momentum carries the bus forward with the car smashed against it right into a bridge pillar. the bus passengers are flung from their seats. >> that's when everything came to a stop, and i was looking at the little car and looking at the pillar and saying i hope those people are okay. >> moore's training kicks in and he and sanduval get the passengers off the bus. >> we're lucky that it happened on a saturday evening just because the bus wasn't as crowded. if it was monday through friday at that time, it could have been a lot worse. >> no one on the bus is
12:16 pm
seriously hurt. so their attention goes to the driver of the crashed car, which is smashed against the pillar. >> it's a little car, and this is a 20, 30 ton vehicle that i'm driving. and it did lift it up and pushed it up against the pillar, and i'm looking at the car here and the pillar right there. my thinking was, you know, i hope those people are okay. >> miraculously, the sole occupant of the car, a 24-year-old driver, suffers four broken ribs but no critical injuries. christian moore is back at work the next day. sanduval suffers whiplash but no broken bones. despite his hard day's work, sanduval is ready to get back behind the wheel. >> i'm really looking forward to getting back on my bus and getting back on my normal routine driving every day and just enjoy, you know, the passengers. coming up, a novice politician gets an introduction into the rough and tumble world of politics. >> boo!
12:17 pm

the reforms i'm proposing -- >> what do barack obama, george w. bush, and bill clinton all have in common? >> bill, this is the center of the aids epidemic. >> they've been heckled. >> and politician ben conup is proud to be in their company. >> it's a rite of passage. >> boo! boo! >> liar. >> we're here again -- >> it's not something that i anticipated. >> it all starts in march 2009 when lucas county commissioner ben coniff decides to run for mayor of toledo, ohio. >> i wanted to give something back. i enjoy politics. i actually find it interesting, stimulating, challenging. >> we're here today --
12:21 pm
>> boo! >> and when a local television station films him struggling to talk over a relentless heckler, his hard day at work becomes a caught on camera sensation. >> are you done? >> no. i'm going to keep going. >> okay. all right. >> well, it wasn't what i signed up for. >> i didn't enter this race for mayor in hopes of becoming a youtube star. that's politics. >> maxwell austin is a toledo resident who follows politicians closely and takes them to task, especially conup who he said broke a pledge of ethics not to run for mayor. >> he said i plan to stay my term, i'm going to do what i'm going to do, not running for mayor, only a few weeks later to come out and say, you know what, i'm going to run for mayor. >> this is an important issue. i want to be able to actually communicate it with people. >> austin is not happy when he sees him campaigning literally at his front door. >> i was sitting on my porch one morning. people showed up. someone approached me to let me
12:22 pm
know who was going to be coming, and would i want to put on a t-shirt and come down there and join. i let him know what i thought and told them no. >> conup's staff updates him on the situation. >> i think there was some indication that there was a guy there who was, you know, a bit ornery, but we decided to go forward with it. >> we have a situation in toledo. >> as conup launches into his talking points about faulty water lines, austin makes his voice heard. >> run for mayor somewhere else. i seized my opportunity to boo him and call him a liar. >> liar. >> over and over. >> liar. >> and over. >> liar. boo! boo! liar. >> this is really annoying. i wanted to try and take the high road. >> why don't you let me talk and then you can talk. that's fair. >> honestly, i wouldn't have minded having a dialogue with the heckler. >> let's get it out of the way and then i can say my peace, and you can say your peace, and we'll go from there.
12:23 pm
we'll be civilized about it. no. you're not coming down here? >> when he gave me the opportunity, why don't you come down here and talk to the cameras, nope, that's not my job. you know, i'm not running for politics. i think i'm doing a great job sitting on my porch relaxing. >> do you want us to move? >> eventually the heckler forces conup and his campaign staffers to change location. >> we moved down the block and doing our thing and going on with the day and not thinking a whole lot about it until obviously the video became viral as they say. >> you know, it's six degrees of separation in america or maybe even the world, you know. you've got a friend in california. you e-mail it over to them. they're going to spread it to all their friends in california who might have a friend somewhere else and i think it's pretty much what happened. >> if you've seen this video, then you're one of tens of thousands around the globe. >> it wasn't what i was really wanting to talk about and frankly really wasn't what the community probably should have been talking about, but, you know, i could see it.
12:24 pm
it was a big story. >> liar. >> it's a big story that dovetails with another big story, the beer summit president obama holds at the white house to mend fences between a cambridge, massachusetts, police officer and a harvard professor over a controversial arrest. >> and we decided to take a cue from the president. >> in that spirit a local toledo television station decides to organize a beer summit of its own featuring ben conup and maxwell austin. >> good to see you. >> nice to finally meet you. >> i feel like a bond, you know what i mean. >> a little bit. yeah, yeah, yeah. >> here you go. >> we've had something, thank you very much. >> a peace offering. >> we had our beer. we talked about the city, talked about some of the issues facing young people in the city, facing downtown toledo, which he also had some interest in. so we found some common ground. >> it's a very productive evening for me at least. i hope it wasn't too bad for you. >> nope, not at all. i got a free beer out of it. >> got a free beer. >> i would be willing to move past our heckling incident and try to get him involved in some way constructively for the community.
12:25 pm
>> but austin prefers to do his opining from the sidelines and doesn't see politics in his future. >> have i ever thought about running for office? no. during the whole booing incident people said, you should run for mayor. you should run for mayor. i don't want to do that. >> as for ben conup, he loses the mayor's race, but he gains a thick skin. and he says, don't count me out yet. >> i still am a county commissioner, i'm still interested in giving back to the community and i think public service and politics is a great way to impact the future of toledo. >> coming up, would you ever volunteer to get tased? >> what about step into a lion's den? two reporters who did just that all for the story when "caught on camera: a hard day's work" continues. ♪ don't let'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks ♪

friday confirms he died from gunshot wounds to the head. it also says richard matt had bug bites and abrasions consistent with living in the woods for three weeks. police continue to search for david sweat, the fugitive who escaped with matt. officials are trying to determine what went wrong after an unmanned spacex rocket broke apart minutes after launch. the rocket was carrying cargo for the international space station. now back to "caught on camera." >> welcome back to "caught on camera." i'm contessa brewer. reporters are naturally curious about the way things work and may go to great lengths for a story. well, what kind of lengths? take a look. television personalities often try what's called the show and tell. a chance for the viewer to see just how something is done. >> ow, that hurt. >> but reporter thomas bonet
12:30 pm
takes the show and tell to a level one might call shocking. bonet, a lifelong alaskan, lives in fairbanks, a former gold rush boom town that prides itself on its natural beauty. while covering local crime stories in 2003, bonet learns that fairbanks police are using taster guns as a crime-fighting tool. his interest is piqued when a police officer makes an offhand comment. >> he sort of jokingly said you should do it. it's a lot of fun. and i said, yeah, sure, why not. fateful statement. >> fateful, indeed. a self-described risk taker bonet decides to try it and capture it all on camera. >> when i told my co-workers what i was planning to do, i was met with a lot of blank stares. i don't think they really
12:31 pm
believed me. >> have you ever seen thomas pace before? i never have. >> i became more and more nervous. you know, i was trying to play it off like, i'm not afraid at all but that was absolutely not true. >> bonet decides, despite his fear, that he should not only go through with the plan, but he should make the experience as real as possible. >> i figured if i'm going to do this, i'm going to go all out. and they gave me all sorts of options like do you want to get tased for one second, three seconds or five seconds? >> five seconds. that's all there is to it. it will seem a little longer on the other end. it will seem longer than five seconds but that's all the longer it is. it's five seconds. >> so i opted for the full five-second taze. >> barbs themselves are literally a claw hook.
12:32 pm
once they go in they don't come out without a little effort. >> the moment arrives, bonet is feeling more at ease. he hears sergeant eric jukes, a taser instructor at the fairbanks police department has been tased himself numerous times. >> i've been shocked with it, i don't know, five, six, seven, eight, ten times, and once it's over, it's over. you're done. you get up and you stand up. there's no clean-up. there's really not a whole lot of recovery. it's over. you're just left with memories. >> but when bonet sees the paramedics walk in, he wonders what kind of memories. >> the emts wheeled in a gurney with a crash cart on it and started asking around, what's this for? we don't need this, right? they said, oh, that's just in case. just in case of what? >> overcoming his cold feet, bonet finally steps onto the mat. >> all right. let's do this. >> all right. >> so stand right here. >> that's it. that looks good.
12:33 pm
>> so, like i said, we can see this laser on his back. so the top barb will go there, the bottom barb will go down. are you ready? >> yeah. >> hold him, hold him. hold him. >> ow. >> he shoots me and after that, there's nothing in my mind except for the sheer pain. there's nothing. it was just horrendous pain. >> hold him, hold him. hold him. >> and before the electricity was applied, i could actually feel the barbs hit my back and plant themselves and then it just hurt like heck. it was insane. and that five seconds felt like an eternity. >> how do you feel? >> fine. >> right now? do you feel any pain? >> no. i feel a tickle from where the probes launched in my back. >> do you feel like you can move? >> yeah. >> do you feel like you have a clear head? >> just like i hoped, there was no residual pain whatsoever. one moment i'm in complete agony
12:34 pm
and the next? what am i doing on the floor? >> hold him, hold him, hold him. >> whenever i see video or even just think of it, of someone being tased, i always think back to myself being tased. that's simply not something you'll forget. from one unforgettable moment to another. when this adventure travel reporter visits the legends resort in south africa, he gets more adventure than he bargains for. >> cut, cut, cut. >> hey! >> charlie smith is a travel writer for "the daily telegraph" in london and a host of tourism videos. he has the perfect job for an adrenaline junky. >> i think a few people at my desk think i've got a little bit of a death wish. i've been wing walking on a plane. flying around doing loop de loop. it was pretty terrifying. i've done the biggest bungee
12:35 pm
jump in the world, the skeleton bobsled which is on this tray where you go down this chute and you go about 60 miles an hour. it's pretty terrifying but it's all good fun. >> but charlie takes the terrifying moments in stride. >> i do this job because of the excitement, because it beats being behind the desk every day and to get the opportunity to travel and if it means i have to get a bit scared at the same time, i don't mind that. it's a good trade. >> a good trade indeed. for a recent story he and his co-host are out taping tourism videos at a gulf course in south africa. >> to do some safari, play some golf. it was all meant to be quite relaxed. none of the adrenaline adventures. >> we're here at legends on the 18th green and we're meant to be going up to the top of that mountain for the extreme 19th, but unfortunately the weather has been a little bit unkind to us this morning and delayed us because the clouds are low. >> another plan has been hatched. >> i've been told we're going into the lion's den. >> no, no, that's been changed again. that's not we're going into the lion's den. you're going into the lion's den. >> he said, why don't you go and
12:36 pm
meet the lion handler. he's got a baby lion. it will be really sweet, you'll get some nice pictures. i thought great. that will be great. we're just off to get breakfast before i become the lion's breakfast. >> charlie doesn't realize how accurate he is. >> turned up at the lion handler's cage and there was a lion that looked enormous. i said that's not a baby. no, it's called baby lion. that's its name. charlie decides that despite his doubts, the shoot must go on especially after being reassured by the lion handler. >> i wasn't sure whether i should go in. you know, you see the size of it. it is sort of prowling up and down in its cage. i spoke to the lion handler. he's raised lions and leopards and hyenas. he said it's safe. i've got control over it. i can tell if it's in a bad mood and if it is, i wouldn't let you in. >> right before charlie steps into the cage, the lion handler gives him some unsettling advice. >> he says, if anything goes wrong, you can't run and you have to try to look like you're not scared.
12:37 pm
in i went and the door closed behind me. at first i was there crouching down, stroking the lion and it is sort of pawing at me a bit. >> scratch the lion's belly. >> it scratched my leg. bit my foot. but nothing. it's just playing around. >> he likes you. >> even when the lion gets into a tussle with his handler, charlie's not ruffled. >> hey, hey. come on. >> he just wants to play. >> but the playful lion now turns to charlie. >> then it started to get up and and it got up on its hind legs and that's when i felt the claws go into my back legs. and they're an inch long. the lion's claws and then his teeth are digging into charlie's body. >> i started to feel pain, like burning pain which went in. and then he let go.
12:38 pm
i mean thankfully otherwise i'd probably be missing, you know, a good quarter of my leg. >> charlie's instinct is to run away from the lion, but he remembers what the handler told him. >> the handler said before we went in, you have to try to not look scared. if you run, you'll become prey and the natural instinct will be to kill you. >> just when charlie thinks the lion is under control, it comes back for more. >> you can hear it roaring and growling and hear your own heart beat in your head. you're so scared. >> in an instant charlie comes eye to eye with the animal. >> it seems slow motion. but you sort of look around and see the mouth open, see its eyes which are kind of yellow eyes and when they fix the stare on you, you just feel like you're an ant. you feel like so small and you're its little play thing. that was the moment when i thought, you know, i'm in trouble. >> when the handler distracts the lion, charlie is able to make his escape. >> i looked kind of like a tarzan figure in these shredded trousers and cut t-shirt and jacket.
12:39 pm
>> charlie goes to the local hospital for stitches on his shoulder and his leg. he had made a last-minute wardrobe change before entering the den which may have saved his life. >> africa is usually pretty hot but this morning it was cold so i was just wearing a t-shirt and thankfully grabbed my ski jacket, which gives you some padding. because basically the lion's claws would go through the jacket. it is tough material and they'd get stuck so it couldn't pull away. if it was just a t-shirt it would go into your flesh and pull through and then that would have been a different story. i probably would have been in hospital for a lot longer or worse. >> despite his brush with death charlie keeps his torn clothes for the memories. >> i thought afterwards, maybe i should throw it away, but no, i thought i got to keep it for the grandkids. >> needless to say charlie doesn't have any plans to enter a lion's den any time soon. >> i put them in two different
12:40 pm
categories. the scary things that are scary because you get frightened doing them but they're not dangerous. you're not going to die from them. it's if you've got the guts. then this lion incident, that's just dangerous and in hindsight pretty stupid to do. coming up, this preacher's slip of the tongue becomes a youtube sensation. >> you heard nothing else. this is church, my gosh. >> a salesclerk's frightening encounter. >> stay back. >> and a cop's dance moves have everyone talking. >> everybody out of the pool. when "caught on camera: a hard day's work" continues. t 6:? ah... (boy) i'm here! i'm here! (cop) too late. i was gone for five minutes! ugh! move it. you're killing me. you know what, dad? i'm good. (dad) it may be quite a while before he's ready,

a retail clerk is viciously attacked by a customer wielding a tire iron. multiple sources are telling nbc news that escaped prisoner david sweat has been shot near the canadian border. this has been an ongoing manhunt for him. of course, richard matt, his -- the other inmate who escaped with him three weeks ago was shot on friday, but we are hearing right now, multiple new york state official sources are telling nbc news that david sweat has been shot near the canadian border, which, of course, would bring to an end this manhunt that has been so exhaustive for the last three
12:54 pm
weeks. we also did receive today autopsy reports on richard matt who was shot friday. and his injuries were consistent with living in the woods for three weeks. we are going to be going right now to adam reese. he has been standing by reporting on this for us. adam? we are going to have adam a moment or two. meantime again, multiple sources with knowledge of this investigation tell nbc news, law enforcement has continued to test various items that were left by sweat and matt in that cabin. now, remember, they were hiding in a cabin in the malone area. they were testing that for dna. so it's not nope how much that played into them actually finding him and where he was exactly near the canadian border. we only know that he was somewhere near malone and of course, we don't even know what kind of condition he is in. we are waiting for this. this is all a developing story. but if you are just tuning in, this manhunt that has really
12:55 pm
captured the attention of everyone for the last three weeks, these two prisoners who escaped, multiple sources are telling nbc news, these are new york state officials, that david sweat has been shot near the canadian border. you are looking at his picture right now. of course, we have no idea what condition he is in. and again, you may remember that richard matt was shot on friday. and the autopsy report revealed that his injure police consistent with living in the wild for three weeks. and of course, so many questions surrounding this, how these men survived for three weeks in the wild when every resource was used to try and find them. this is gonna be very interesting to find out, especially if he is, indeed, still alive, if david sweat is still alive. he will have a lot of questions to answer. right now, we do have adam reese on the ground. adam, what can you tell us? >> reporter: we know that david sweat has been shot near the
12:56 pm
canadian border. it is not too far from this location where richard matt was located and shot as well. we are in the town of malone. and what we know at this moment is that he was shot near the border, about ten miles from the border just north of here. we are not too far at all from the border. now, we also learned today richard matt's autopsy was completed. we learned that he was shot in the head. he had multiple bug bites, abrasions on his lower extremities. but again, all we know at this point is david sweat was shot about ten miles from the canadian border, which is just north from where we are in malone, new york, the location of where they apprehended, shot and killed richard matt. back to you. >> with he don't know what condition he is in. you said he was shot in the head, so -- >> reporter: no, richard matt was shot in the head. >> i'm sorry. i thought you were talking about david sweat. >> reporter: we don't know the condition of david sweat. we do know they did want to take him in alive. they were hopeful if they brought him in alive they could determine how they escaped, what
12:57 pm
it was like out here. everything that they could learn about the escape, including how they were able to get out of clinton correctional facility. that was important for them to determine all of those details. that's why they wanted to take him in alive. at this point, we don't know his condition. adam, you have been following this case since it broke. it has been so remark al and captured the attention of the nation. walk us through a little bit what they do know right now about their escape. have they been interviewing other inmates? >> reporter: they have been talking to inmates, they have been talking to corrections officers, they have been talking to workers, getting more details that we know two officers of the jail have been arrested. we know about joyce mitchell. we know about gene palmer. they were looking into others who might have been involved in this conspiracy to escape. in terms of the search, we know they had set up to 22-mile perimeter today. i'm not sure if the location where they got him is within the perimeter.
12:58 pm
it seems to be just around the edge of the northern part of the perimeter. i can tell you we had 1300 searchers out here. the choppers weren't out today because of the weather. it's been terrible weather for the past several days. i can tell you two of the three weeks that they were on the run was pouring rain. the last two days, pouring rain. very difficult companies, both for the escapees as well as for the searchers. but they were out here. they were determined once they got matt, they were hoping and assuming that sweat probably wasn't too far away and sure enough, about 48 hours after they got matt, it looks like they have got sweat. >> and what's remarkable, because you are up there on the ground, is the different ways they were looking for them, the exhaustive search. can you tell us a little bit about it? a lot of the searching even went on at night, correct? >> reporter: right. right. they were working in shifts. it was an exhausting search for these 1300 searchers. we would see them come and go. there were lots of false alarms. >> okay, adam, i'm so sorry to
12:59 pm
interrupt you but we are getting news right now that's alive and in custody. again, david sweat has been found -- has been found. he is alive. we also have reports that he had been shot. we don't know what condition he is in. but he is alive. and he is in custody. so, as this -- >> reporter: that's -- >> good news. >> reporter: certainly something -- that's certainly something that they wanted. they wanted to bring him in alive. again, they wanted to learn as much as possible about the escape from the correctional facility, how they got out, who was involved and then once they were out, how did they survive in this incredibly difficult terrain, difficult wilderness. they want to learn as much about the escape and how they were able to survive on the lam. so i think officials will be happy that's alive and that they will hopefully be able to talk to him and learn more about this whole plot to escape, which was in the planning for months, if not years. >> it's quite incredible. i imagine this is going to change the way that a lot of
1:00 pm
prisons secure their prisoners, they will learn a lot from this. do you -- are you hearing anything about anybody else being arrested in connection with this, bea sides joyce mitchell and the other prison official? >> and gene palmer? >> gene palmer. >> reporter: no, but certainly told by the district attorney they will leave no stone unturned. they are continuing the investigation and they will take it wherever it leads them. they want to know exactly who was involved and quite possible there were others that were involved and if they weren't involved, they might have known about the plot and they could be, you know, just as culpable as joyce mitchell and gene palmer. i just want to tell you a little bit more about the last 24 hours here. after they were able to apprehend richard matt, shoot him, we learned the details of the autopsy today, shots to the head. multiple abrasions, bruises and bug bites on the lower extremities. so, they knew that david sweat probably
