>> good afternoon, everyone. this certainly is a somber day for our city. when i left church this morning i checked my phone and saw that there was an urgent message from the chief and i certainly was floored by what he told me. on behalf of our city council, several of whom are here today, and all the citizens of our great city, i'd like to extend my condolences to the family of detective benjamin marconi and also to his brother and sister officers in our san antonio police department. this type of senseless violence is unacceptable. i know that as the chief mentioned sapd and our other law enforcement agencies are working to quickly am rehend the perpetrator who is a danger to our community. of course as the chief

mentioned, i ask all citizens to provide any information that may assist us in swiftly finding the shooter. the message that i heard at church today was about thankfulness and as shocking and sobering at these tragic events are, i will say that i am thankful for the life and 20 years of service of detective marconi and for the thousands of sapd officers who work each and every day to keep us safe. >> take a couple questions now. >> chief, what reassurances are you giving to officers who are on patrol right now? we're hearing they're advised to not do traffic stops alone. >> that's correct. officers have been advised that will when an officer makes a traffic stop he or she is to have cover. >> the original person that was pulled over, what were they stopped for and is it believed they're related at all to the shooter? >> i don't know what they were stopped for and i don't believe

they were related to the shooter. >> does sh have any connection with the officer involved shooting that was earlier in the day? and is there any update on that. >> say that again? >> the officer involved shooting earlier in the day, is there any connection with it and any update to that? >> we're looking at all possible motives including that one. >> how old was detective marconi? >> 50 years old. >> been in the force for 25 years? >> 20 years. >> the front of the building had crime scene markers as if the front of this building had something to do with it. [ inaudible ]. >> i don't know anything about that. >> is protocol at sap headquarters going to be any different for citizen who is want to come in and conduct business that they would have on any other day? >> no. >> so do you know when things will return to normal here? >> you mean as far as the front goes being blocked off? as soon as they're finished

processing the scene they'll clear it. >> do we have anything else? we'll keep you posted with updates. thank you. >> getting the very latest there out of san antonio, texas. a police officer shot today. the information we're just getting out of this news briefing, detective benjamin marconi, 50 years old, a 20-year veteran of the san antonio police. the police chief and as you can tell by the mood there as well as from the mayor, mayor ivy tayl taylor, very somber. it's a sunday. it is a sunday before a major holiday. and even the questioning, normally this would go on for not four or five minutes, it could go on for 30 or 40 minutes. but it was very clear at this moment they want to find out who this suspect is. the suspect is at large and they described that suspect and i'll give you system of the details in case you may have information wherever you are at. dark complexion, 20s or 30s,

wither or without facial hair. there's also a picture of the car they believe the suspect had used. it is it right here. a black car that they have a picture of this out of san antonio, texas. and this incident happening earlier today. and the lead up to that as detective marconi was writing out a traffic ticket to a motorist, was shot to death, we understand two shots to the head at hi squad car. was outside of police headquarters. and then another driver pulled up from behind. that individual, the suspect, getting out and then shooting detective marconi twice in the head. and the 50-year-old detective declared dead at the hospital close by right after being taken there. so still with us, michael balboni, former new york state homeland security adviser, you've worked with state police

before. this is not only tragic but so many questions. the suspect is currently at large. they're trying to get more information. they've asked for it. they're working with federal, state, and local. tell us about that coordination and what will be essential now just hours after this incident. >> well, a couple things that have come out, the description of the event. first of all, this is incredibly chilling. you know, to walk up calmly and to fire who two shots at a police officer sitting in a car and then walk back to the car in front of police headquarters, that evidences at least some type of military training, certainly incredibly calm and premeditated motives here. of course i'd love to know what the gun is and where they came from. any other eyewitnesses. what are the traffic cameras in the area going to show. anybody in and around headquarters that could see this happen. >> looking at the pictures, again, police headquarters, that's the mapping of it.

then the live picture we were showing a second ago. there is that live picture from moments ago. it's taped now. when you see that scene, what are you seeing? >> i'm seeing someone who's incredibly brazen, someone who decided that they were going to get away with this, that they'd walk up, or they were ready to die for it. but the fact that he took off so fast and still eluding people currently, this happened several hours ago. that says to me this may have been planned. it certainly was premeditated. i want to know if the guy has any support. >> it is bold as you're saying here, because this is police headquarters. obviously, we'll state obvious, a lot of security, many police officers there, potentially if there's ever to be a place in any city where there might be cameras it would be at the police headquarters. >> if you take a look at firearms training that law enforcement officers go through, talk to the fbi, they'll tell

you the act of shooting someone is an emotional act except for the most professional or people who have had a lot of training spop to just walk up to a squad car and shoot the perp through the window and then reach in and shoot the officer again, again, says that this individual had something else going on. they were not the typical emotional pull gun out and shoot. and just as easy as you think it is to hit a target that close, people miss all the time on that. even trained officers. so that gives me a little bit of a profile about who this guy and at least some of his background might be. >> we're just hours in here, michael. you heard the police chief say they are going to find this suspect. but as each hour moves on and it appears the suspect has moved away from the car, because we have a picture of the car left behind, how crucial the r the next 30, 40 minutes if not three or four hours? >> if he's on his own and he's done this without any support whatsoever, he'll obviously go to ground as we saw in the chelsea bombing.

this is a guy who now doesn't have any place to go, was found in a doorway. you could see something like that. however, if this was a plan ned attack and he had support and that support is able to take him and get him out of this area, then your guess is as good as mine in terms of the time period of an rehepgs. >> quickly on the security measures, the cordoning around police headquarters, typically what are they? >> first of all you have a lot of officers going in and around. off lot of eyewitnesses, armed personnel in the area. talk about a deterrent, there's a lot of deterrent. yes, there are generalry cameras outside police headquarters to see what kind of threats there are, but depends on what the headquarters look like. >> lucky to have you here, michael balboni, former new york state homeland security adviser. thanks for being here to give us your reflxs on what has the happened there. what we are just learning from a press briefing, a press conference within the last 15 minutes, again, detective benjamin marconi shot in front of police headquarters in san antonio.

the anger starts with some lane splitting by motorcyclist ronnie gonzalez. the maneuver involves cutting between two lanes of traffic, which is illegal in florida. >> at that point, he opens his door and has his whole body out and looks like he's going to come out. >> just watch, it soon escalates to dangerous actions with the other driver.

you're on a motorcycle locked in a confrontation with an irate driver. what's your first move? a, speed up to get away. b, back off and give the other driver space. or c, pull over and try to talk things out with the driver. if your instinct is to floor it, your instinct is wrong. >> when people speed up to get away, that creates an adrenaline rush for the person who is chasing. so it's almost like a cat and mouse game now. >> plus speeding up only puts you at greater risk of getting into an accident. so a is not a good option. what about diffusing the situation by pulling over? >> anytime you do have an irate driver you never want to engage with them. that is just going to further increase the problem. >> the answer is, b, back off and give the antagonist the space to calm down. >> the best thing you can do if

someone is near you on the roadway screaming or yelling and you're in fear for yourself, the best thing you can do is create distance and time. >> unfortunately, ronnie chooses to flee through oncoming traffic. >> i'm like, oh, my god, this is insane. i can't believe this is happening. i just -- my heart was racing, it was pounding. i had so much adrenaline running through me. >> [ bleep ]! >> people really need to step back and remember that though they may feel angry right now they don't want those actions to lead to something that they have to think about the rest of their life. >> true or false? although we don't know what trigged these drivers' dangerous behaviors, occasionally erupting in rage due to what should be minor stresses is a recognized psychiatric condition. it's true. it's called intermittent explosive disorder. and according to the national

institute of mental health, as much as 7.3% of the u.s. population experiences it. >> we think about intermittent explosive disorder. we're talking about people who overreact to situations and they follow that up with uncontrollable rage. this is a very serious condition, and in the situation of road rage, we don't have the luxury of knowing who has ied or who has just the regular anger or frustration. >> but ronnie gonzalez is still right in the middle of the fight. >> he's like next to me at 100 miles an hour, exchanging words at me, spitting at me. i feel like it's a horror movie. he just keeps coming and coming. >> you're still being pursued by an angry road rager and are in fear for your life.

you've already called 911. what is your next best action? a, turn into a public place like a police station or a mall. b, call friends or family for help. or c, drive home and lock yourself inside. your best option is a. driving home or recruiting friends and relatives for help only endangers those close to you. >> you notice they're not leaving, they're continuing to follow you. you want to continue to drive to the closest police station if you're not familiar with the area. you want to go to a place that is highly populated. >> after multiple perilous moments, ronnie finds his way to the miami-dade county police department, buy that's how he learns that his decisions contributed to the problem.

>> they started doing an investigation. i was arrested for reckless driving. >> the other driver is also arrested and the two antagonists run into each other while in temporary custody. the other driver approaches ronnie and apologizes. >> and i told him, i'm sorry too. i feel like we could have handled the situation more maturely. >> ronnie's case is eventually dismissed when the other driver doesn't appear in court. the other driver is convicted of aggravated assault and reckless driving and gets two years of probation. if you don't want to become a victim of road rage, remember these key split-second tips. avoid aggressive drivers and don't be one yourself. back off and give the other driver some space. if being followed, drive to a public place and don't escalate disputes with your responses. >> we put a lot of people at risk for no apparent reason, for nothing.

even under the best conditions, giving birth is not without risk. and sometimes the best conditions aren't even an option. according to the centers for disease control, in 2014 roughly 3,000 out of 4 million u.s. births happened outside of a home or a medical facility. >> many things could go wrong. the heart rate, for example, of the baby could go down and no one would know. that baby could either suffocate or strangulate on the cord or be in another position other than head down, which could be pretty alarming to an untrained person. >> july 2015. jonathan pettyjohn and his wife, lisha, leave their lake jackson home to a birth center in texas as lisa begins contractions with their third child.

they're in the middle of a 75-minute drive to the birth center in houston when lisha goes into labor. >> my wife had asked me to film this birth because she hadn't actually seen the previous two births so she wanted to see this one from camera perspective. i just set it on my leg or next to my leg and i was just paying attention to the road. >> the water broke, the water broke. >> all right. >> true or false? the best indication that a birth is imminent is when a woman's water breaks. the answer is false. there's actually a more simple signal. >> there's sort of a guttural noise that women begin to make very ip sting tifly that is the clue that labor is going to be happening very imminently. it's the moan-groan-grunt type

of sound that's the trigger. >> i reached around and felt his head and that's when i was like, oh, my word, he's coming out in the car. i lost my mind pretty much at that point. i couldn't believe that that was actually happening, and i was like, well, his head's out. i have to push him the rest of the way out because he can't stay halfway in. oh, my god, the baby is out. >> true or false? sitting upright is an optimal position for labor, allowing gravity to assist with the birth. the answer is false. >> when you're sitting, the xwairt nal is angle sod it doesn't allow for the baby to pass under the pelvic bone to deliver as easily as if mother was laying back slightly. >> either way, her baby isn't waiting. >> do you want me to keep going? >> keep going. >> all right. we had a baby.

>> oh, my goodness. it's a boy. >> it's a boy. >> the baby has arrived. but there are still miles to go before the family is out of the woods. after deciding to keep driving to the medical facility, would you know what to do next? a, cut the baby's umbilical cord. b, pat the baby on the buttocks to simulate the nervous system. or c, stroke the baby's back to clear the lungs. >> do not cut the umbilical cord. let the umbilical cord continue to pulsate. and what that does is continues to improve circulation to the baby, it brings oxygen to the baby. if you cut the umbilical cord in a setting where it's not clean or sterile, it can lead to infection in the baby. >> and though a pat on the buttocks can stimulate the nervous system, if you want to deliver safely, option skrshgs your best bet.

>> one of the first things when we do with when we birth a baby, we rub the baby's back up and down. that moves the fluid out of the lungs and it stimulates crying. then you can actually do gentle suction, cover the baby's nose and mouth with your mouth and suck out the mucous and fluid. >> it's got to be suctioned. it's got to be suctioned. >> it's breathing. it's crying. >> once you're sure the airway is clear, the next thing should be to bring the baby up to your chest for skin-to-skin contact. >> you remove your top, put the baby right on your chest. that will regulate body temperature, regulate heart rate, and regulate breathing. >> the pettyjohns arrive at the medical center 15 minutes after the birth where lisha delivers the placenta and midwives cut the umbilical cord. their new baby boy, josiah, is perfectly healthy. >> we're kind of glad, you know,

that people actually get to see a real birth and not just what's portrayed on movies and different things. women are strong and god made them to have babies and you can have babies just like that. >> if you ever face an unassisted birth in an emergency situation, remember these split second tips to increase your chances of a healthy outcome. immediately call 911. listen for the mother's guttural moans. once a baby is born, do not cut the umbilical cord. stroke the baby's back and suction fluid from the mouth to clear the lungs. follow these split second tips and ensure the baby's actual birthday is a happy one. >> we just had a baby. we did it. >> high five, babe. >> a lot of screaming, a lot of asking for help. no one knew what to do. how would you escape a crushing stampede? where we explore. protecting biodiversity. everywhere we work. defeating malaria. improving energy efficiency. developing more clean burning natural gas.

pilgrimage to mecca kills 2400 people. in the u.s., stampedes can explode at sporting events, rock concerts, even black friday sales. and once mob rule takes over, it can be hard to know what to do. >> being in a crowd crush is so terrifying because there's a lack of ability to freely move or make decisions or do anything yourself. you are at the mercy of the crowd. >> june 2010, nearly 200,000 people pile into the los angeles coliseum for the two-day electric daisy carnival. on the second day, hundreds of people try to rush the stadium infield to get closer to the stage, creating a potential diddly bottle neck in the venue's corridors. andrew alvarez was there when it began and started filming. >> we were dancing, we were

>> the most significant sensory input was first sound, like a thunking sound. i still remember very clearly after hearing that sound the escalator started to speed up along with a realization of horror that it was suddenly accelerating. >> is there even time to react? you're a father with young kids on a run-away escalator. what split second decision should you make? a, grab your kids and jump over the side railing. b, grab hold of the handrail and your kids and ride it to the bottom. c, grab your kids and run back up the escalator to the top. in this case, going against the flow is a no-go as runaway escalators follow gravity down. >> the speed of the equipment is great enough in a runaway situation that you really can't run up the stairs. you might grab a child and hold the child to reduce the impact or the affect on them when you

hit the bottom. >> option c is out. standing near the top of the escalator with no time to think, peyton picks option a. >> it was pretty much a bolt in terms of holding the handrail and jumping feet up on the space between the escalator units and my son came after me. >> but experts say you shouldn't pick peyton's path. though they both make it out alive, peyton's son injures his knee and it could have been much worse. of all options, b is the safest. >> the best option is to hold on to the handrails and ride it to the bottom because for most people all but maybe an olympic athlete, they can't begin to get off this equipment while it's moving. it's simply moving too fast. >> peyton's wife and daughter do ride the escalator to the bottom where it finally stops but his wife doesn't let go of the handrail on time. >> the one injury my wife suffered was as she was gripping the escalator handrail and it

stopped the handrail was still running so it ran through her hands and basically burned some of the skin on her hand. >> four other passengers are treated for minor injuries. but could these accidents have been stopped sooner? true or false -- pushing the emergency stop button is the best way to halt a runaway escalator. the answer is false. the problem is a sudden accelerating escalator is often caused when the belt of the stairs detaches from the motor and gearbox. the weight of the right fielders then pushes the belt and stairs down. >> there's a stop at each end which stops the motor, but if the escalator equipment has become disconnected from the drive, the button is not going to do anything. >> you see escalators are more than just moving stairs. they're multiton move mag sheens that should be treated with the same level of respect as an

automobile. to avoid injuries or even death, remember these tips. hold children closely. keep a firm grip on the handrail and ride runaway escalators to the bottom and then exit quickly. >> we sort of registered into something that was a wild and crazy experience that we hope doesn't ever happen again. an ice-covered lake may look like a winter wonderland, but potentially lethal perils lurk just below the surface. it happens dozens of times in the u.s. every year. unsuspecting people plunging through thin ice and succumbing to the frigid water. christmas day 2012. a great opportunity for mickey herman, his wife and two daughters to film some sledding with their new camera at jackson lake in southern california. >> we noticed the guys taking the tubes were going up a lot higher on the hill, which resulted them going out much

further onto the lake that was frozen and getting very close to the part that wasn't frozen. >> look at that big crack. is that a big crack next to him right there? >> yeah. >> then a sledder skids out too far. the man plunges into the freezing water. freezing water. >> that's seriously not even funny. >> no, it's not. >> it's a life and death struggle and every second counts. a frozen lake is transformed into havoc. >> it just totally turned into chaos and panic. >> could you save others and yourself? ♪ and if you want to be free, be free ♪ ♪ 'cause there's a million things to be ♪ ♪ you know that there are ♪ and if you want to be me, be me ♪ ♪ and if you want to be you, be you ♪ ♪ 'cause there's a million things to do ♪ ♪ you know that there are

straight to lima, peru. president obama holding a news conference, one of his last few he will do before departing the white house. now he's in lima, peru. let's listen in while he talks about global trade. >> benefits of global economy are shared by more people and that the negative impacts, such

as economic inequalities are addressed by all nations. when it comes to trade, i believe the answer is not to pull back or try to erect barriers to trade, given our integrated economies and global supply chains that would hurt us all, but rather the answer is to do trade right, making sure it has strong labor standards, strong environmental standards, that it addresses ways in which workers and ordinary people can benefit rather than be harmed by global trade. all of this is the central work. as this debate moves forward in the united states, it's important to remember how vital the asia-pacific is to america's prosperity. the 21 asia-pacific economies here represent nearly 3 billion people, a majority of the global

middle class. six of america's top ten trading partners, more than half of the global economy, and the world's fastest growing region. in other words, these 21 countries represent opportunity for united states to sell our goods and support u.s. jobs. that's why it's part of the rebalance to foreign policy asia-pacific we boosted exports to the region by some 50%. nearly 60% of our exports go to the region. this is part of broader progress. with 95% of the world's customers beyond borders, i made it a priority to open up new markets overseas. during my add manage, we increased u.s. exports to the world by more than 40%, to record levels. these exports support more than 11 million american jobs. moreover, we know companies that

export tend to grow faster and hire more employees and pay their workers more than companies that do not export, all of which why exports have helped drive our economic recovery. it's one of the reasons u.s. businesses created more than 15 million new jobs. so that's the kind of progress that trade when done right can deliver. that's the kind of work we've tried to do here at this summit. we're continuing our work to make it easier to do business between our countries, so we're creating even more jobs. in the united states we're simplifying the process of starting a new business, increasing access to credit, all of which will help more ventures, especially small businesses get up and running and helping them to be able to export as well so they can access a global market, even if they can't afford fancy lawyers and accountants and foreign offices. we agreed to increase our collective efforts against corruption by targeting the

bribery that enriches elites at the expense of people. we committed to making it easier to trade in services as well as goods. we also discussed excess capacity that exists in certain sectors like steel and aluminum that supports markets and hurts businesses and workers, including american workers. even as i argued we cannot engage in protectionist measures, my administration has been at the forefront of really cracking down hard on unfair trade practices and brought consistently cases against -- cases under wto against those who were engaging in fair trade practices and we've had a great track record of trade enforcement that has to be part of this process. i've been very clear that excess capacity is not the result of market forces, it's the result of specific government policies and it needs to be fixed. here at apec we've been taking

steps as we were at the g-20 to start addressing these issues. we've endorsed rules to protect privacy of personal information as it crosses borders, discussed maintaining moratorium on goods and innovation and given growing cyber threats our 21 growing economies no one should conduct or support cyber enabled theft intellectual property, trade secrets, with the intent of providing a competitive advantage to companies or commercial sectors. we're also moving ahead with making our companies more inclusive. one particular area of focus is matter sure that women have fair access to economic growth. expanding education, expanding access to careers in sooibcienc

technology, math, helping finance, integrate their businesses in the global supply chain. according to one study, if women around the world participated in the labor force, it could add up to $28 trillion of additional output for the global economy, $28 trillion. when women are more prosperous than families, communities, and countries are all more prosperous as well. my meeting yesterday with my fellow leaders of trans-pacific partnership was a chance to reaffirm our commitment to the tpp with its high standas, strong protections for workers, the environment, intellectual property and human rights. our partners made very clear during the meeting they want to move forward with tpp. preferably they would like to move forward with the united states. the number of countries already starting to ratify tpp. at the same time we're already hearing calls for a less ambitious trade agreement in the region with lower standards,

lower protections for workers, lower protections for the environment. that kind of agreement would obviously exclude u.s. workers and businesses and access to those markets. so for all those reasons, i believe that tpp is a plus for america's economy, america's workers, american jobs. i think not moving forward with undermine our position across the region and our ability to shake the rules of global trade in a way that reflects our interest and our values. finally, our cooperation with apec has been critical to our historic progress fighting climate change. bringing the paris agreement into force, agreeing to limit aviation emissions, phasing out dangerous hsc, fossil fuels and countries made new commitments doubling our renewable energy over the next two
