see if he's there. >> reporter: biden offered an entirely different account of what happened on that fateful day, saying he didn't give his opinion until after the meeting, when he was alone with president obama. and then he said go for it. >> so as we walked out of the room and walked upstairs, i said -- i told him my opinion, that i thought he should go but follow his own instincts. but it would have been a mistake. imagine if i had said in front of everyone don't go or go and his decision was a different decision. >> reporter: biden has said he told obama and his team that night to hold off on the raid. >> ladies and gentlemen, i said wait another seven days for the following information. >> i wanted him to take one more day to do one more test to see if he was there. >> reporter: hillary clinton wrote of the fateful decision in "vice president biden remained "but i concluded the chance to get bin laden was worth it."

nearly 60 people have been killed in the past month. half were the result of stabbing attacks on israelis by palestinians. but there were also clashes along the border with gaza. police in albuquerque are looking for whoever shot a 4-year-old in a moving car. the little girl died at the hospital. the only one injured in the vehicle. her father says it was a case of road rage. another vehicle pulled up alongside his. but police don't have a suspect and any clues may be spread over a large area, miles of interstate 40. breaking news here in new york, where a police officer has been killed in the line of duty. the 33-year-old officer was shot in the head during a gun battle in east harlem. a suspect is in custody. the victim is the fourth new york city police officer to be murdered in just the past 11 months. officials in the st. louis area believe the six fires at predominantly black churches in the past two weeks are connected.

rapidly. and in the southwest it is bracing for more severe storms today after yesterday's extreme weather brought strong winds, hail, flooding, and possible tornadoes. at least one funnel cloud spotted yesterday northwest of phoenix. more than three inches of rain could fall in the region by noon. flash flood watches and warnings have been issued across that area. a dozen people are in intensive care at a hospital in san jose suffering from an apparent case of food poisoning. a mexican seafood restaurant has been closed since sunday. more than 80 people who ate there got sick. lab tests on at least 15 of these cases have shown the presence of what's called shigella bacteria. it usually comes from unwashed hands but can also stem from contaminated food. >> they had a major violation last month for cooling, but at that time the food was actually discarded voluntarily by the facility owner. and then we had a few what we call minor violations, which are

not likely to contribute to food-borne illness but are nonetheless still a violation. >> it's unclear how many of those 80 cases we mentioned were people who actually ate at that restaurant or got sick from coming into contact with someone who did. doctors say the symptoms usually go away in five to ten days. ten days. that's a long time. >> that is a long time. "consumer reports" is no longer recommending the tesla model s. the magazine editors say the $76,000 electric car is tops in performance but its predicted reliability is poor. the news hit tesla especially hard. the stock fell more than 6% yesterday. so here's a list. the automakers ranking tops in reliability. lexus, toyota, audi, mazda, and subaru. number 6-ranked kia from south korea is now considered more reliable than honda or nissan. >> so those people are probably going to buy a toyota camry you think instead of that fancy car? >> they probably are going to move on. but today i'm thinking people are all about the deloreans.

>> the deloreans. >> yes. >> i still want my knight rider car with kitt talking. back in 1988. if you thought today was any other day since you mentioned, kendis, you've got to rethink that one, right? >> you realize it was john forsyth. it wasn't really a computer. okay. because today is october 21st, 2015, the date that was on the time machine in the 1989 movie "back to the future ii." of course the movie also makes reference to the cubs winning the world series. oops. >> yeah. that still could happen. let's be honest. ain't looking good right now. pepsi releasing a limited edition "back to the future" bottle. >> the price, $20.15. >> that looks like the obama logo from 2012. >> that is, until they hit ebay when they will likely skyrocket as fast as that time machine. >> oh. >> if you're driving, i'm scared. >> you should be scared. >> we've got a kid in the back. >> oh, boy.
