krol as he takes two famous characters to broadway. >> we like to say it is a love letter to theater or more realisticly a stalkers note. we would rather have broadway die than be with anybody but us. in the state of washington police arresting a 20-year-old people to death at a mall there this weekend. what is the latest? >> reporter: for the first time we are hearing how investigators spotted this suspected gunman walking down the street in a town almost 30 miles away. investigators say once they put the surveillance camera pictures from inside of the mall out they started receiving tips from the

as arcan cetin. they went to check out and they saw him walking down the street. the investigators we talked to described him as quiet and almost zombie like. >> i saw an individual walking northbound on the sidewalk and i instantly recognized that is the person i just viewed on my computer. i did an abrupt u turn and hit my individual into custody. >> reporter: cetin is 20 years old. he is a u.s. legal resident in the u.s. sources have told our affiliate that his ex girlfriend may have worked at the macy's some time ago. when asked about that investigators say it is still too early to talk about the motive.

we are learning more about cetin through social media postings. he posted videos of him playing call of duty. he is facing five counts of murder as this community struggles with its grief. >> starting us off in the state of washington. after a public outcry police in charlotte, north carolina finally released body camvideo of keith scott. security is tight for the carolina panthers game later today. >> reporter: today the carolina panthers are set to play a home game here amid heightened security after several nights of protests. police released portion of the videos relating to the shooting death of keith scott. we should warn you they are graphic and some viewers may

backup. guns drawn at keith scott inside the white suv. scott walks backwards, four shots ring out. body camera footage shows the uniformed officer trying to use the baton to break the window. seconds later body is on the ground. officers were there to serve an arrest warrant to another man. officers say scott parked next to him and held up a gun. >> the image does not create absolute certainty as to what this case represents and what the outcome can be. the footage supports all of the other information. >> reporter: police say scott's dna and finger prints are on the

wearing this ankle holster. the new videos distributed one day after scott's wife released this dramatic cell phone video. >> he has no weapon. >> reporter: none of the recordings show scott pointing a weapon at officers. >> he is not aggressively moving towards law enforcement. he is doing the opposite. he is passively stepping back. >> reporter: this wasn't the first time in with the law involving a gun. his family's lawyers say scott's delaying getting out of his vehicle doesn't justify his death. >> don't shoot him. >> reporter: his brother in law says the videos leave more questions than answers. >> we shouldn't have to -- in order for him to be treated fairly. he was an american citizen who deserved that.

some demonstrators have said not all videos were released but the police chief said he did put out all videos directly related to the shooting. >> we'll watch the scene at the stadium today. thanks so much. let's turn to the presidential race. the election 44 days away. the highly anticipated first debate between donald trump and hillary clinton tomorrow night. the around the world expected to be huge. kristin welker has the latest. >> exciting time around here. it is crunch time for the candidates, the first critical debate set for tomorrow night. trump and clinton are huddling with aides and advisers doing their homework. with the stakes this high there is no room for error. hours ticking away. donald trump headlining a rally

>> you will wind this state and we are going to win the white house. >> reporter: clinton off the campaign trail enlisting senator elizabeth warren and cast of the west wing for help. >> he doesn't realize it but this ain't no stinking tv show. >> reporter: the run up to the debate is getting nasty already. mark cuban a frequent trump critic. >> that is a bluff. center monday night. trump tweeting saturday if he wants to sit in the front row perhaps i will put jennifer flowers right along side of him. bill clinton admitted under oath to a sexual encounter with flowers. she tweeted on saturday hi donald you know i'm in your corner and will definitely be at

row the stakes are enormous. 1984 ronald reagan diffusing questions about his advanced age. >> i am not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience. >> reporter: 1988, the vice presidential debate. slamming dan quayle for comparing himself to john f. kennedy. >> i knew jack kennedy. jack ken mine. senator, you are no jack kennedy. >> nobody remembers the spectacular performances. >> reporter: a very narrow tight rope for clinton and trump to walk monday night. the trump campaign hasn't commented on the flowers/cuban flap but the clinton campaign is firing back saying it shows how easily provoked and thin skinned trump is.

a night of fireworks. >> thanks so much. let's bring in rick tyler. rick played donald trump in cruz's preparation for the republican primary debate. and elise jordan is a former adviser to the rand paul campaign. good to see you both. so talk to me about playing donald trump for a candidate. do you use the accent? >> i really did. i tried t as i could. trump has very unique mannerisms, hand gestures, he speaks in very staccato short sentences and talks a lot about himself. >> what do you think the clinton campaign can learn from your experience with ted cruz? >> the first donald trump is going to be disciplined donald

insult laden donald trump. that is his number one liability is his temperament. >> which donald trump shows up. does he try to appear presidential to an audience that maybe is just tuning in for the first time? then you see him tweeting about jennifer flowers. >> i thought we were going to see disciplined donald trump and then you see him tweeting about a bill clinton mistress two days before the trump campaign has not sufficiently hazed him and he is not ready to be put to the scrutiny and going up against a woman such a delicate balance trump could be in for a surprise. >> he doesn't strike me as one who takes hazing well. you covered the clinton campaign so closely for so long now. how are they preparing?

expect secretary clinton to prepare. she is hunkering down running through mock debates. she has a number of top advisers with her. then she has one of her former top advisers playing the role of trump. he is a tough guy. everyone in the media knows that. a lot of people can see why she chose him because he will throw a barb at her without hesitation. she is preparing for two donald get under trump's skin. her other challenge i think is going to be she has a lot of policies. she knows a lot of the information. she has a long record but narrowing that down for voters so it is easily understandable. >> what is the biggest mistake both candidates can make? >> i think bringing jennifer flowers will be a big mistake. >> we'll start there.

student. [ laughter ] trump has to prove he is presidential because if 100 million people watch many have not paid that much attention and have heard a lot about donald trump and see him and say that guy is nothing like i have seen. it is important for donald trump for him not to lose his temper. i think clinton cannot bring her pension for being a litigating every little -- she needs short sentences for things like the middle east, things like the server. she needs quick answers. she cannot litigate those things again. she has to be aspirational. we have to know her vision and that she has a plan. >> will donald trump be graded on a curve? >> that is after the first

i didn't agree with that. everyone has such consistently low expectations. hillary clinton does have a tougher bar as a woman, i think, just going in. she might get some kind of break because everyone is excited about the first woman candidate but at the same time she is hillary clinton and everyone expects the worse. >> it will be fascinating to watch. thank you so much. stay with me for the highs lows of the week. other news this morning, flooding fears in the midwest as iowa deals with another day of rain. the cedar river is rising dangerously and could go from 10 feet to 23 feet. at one point a deer got stuck in the river but two people were able to pull it to safety. two delaware firefighters being remembered after they were killed at a house fire on saturday. four firefighters were in the
