selma, alabama, this week. >> 50 years after peaceful civil rights activists were beaten on that very bridge, president obama right there leading a new march and saying the struggle is not over, and that brings us to our lead story this sunday, the protests in madison, wisconsin, after another deadly police shooting of an unarmed young black man by a white officer. a police shooting that some say proves the president's point, that more work needs to be done. abc's linzie janis is in madison with the very latest for us this morning. linzie. >> reporter: good morning, paula. this is where that struggle went down, in an unstairs apartment in the building behind me. neighbors tell us it's where tony robinson's two friends live and he would often come and go. this morning they say they cannot understand why he had to die. >> it's time for the police to stop. >> reporter: overnight tensions running high in the neighborhood where 19-year-old tony terrell robinson was shot and killed by police friday night.
8:03 am
>> no weapon. >> absolutely no weapon. >> reporter: neighbors gathering in front of the home where he died. parents feeling angry and scared. >> i worry about my kids even walking down the street. >> reporter: robinson's friends too. >> us being teenagers and, you know, african-american teenagers, you know, it can happen to us. >> reporter: earlier in the day police chief mike koval identifying 45-year-old matt kenny as the officer who shot robinson and acknowledging that the teen was unarmed. >> i want to be very transparent. he was unarmed. >> reporter: robinson's mother in shock. >> my son has never been a violent person, never, and to die in such a violent, violent way, it baffles me. >> reporter: court records obtained by abc news reveal robinson and a group of friends pleaded guilty to charges of being a party to an armed robbery in april 2014 and robinson was under supervision when police responded to a complaint about him on friday evening. >> outside yelling and jumping
8:04 am
in front of cars apparently tony hit one of his friends. >> reporter: kenny the first officer at the scene can be heard in these police radio transmissions. >> 1125 upstairs apartment. >> david, we have to enter. >> reporter: before forcing his way in. >> shots fired, shots fired. >> reporter: police say officer kenny opened fire after being attacked by robinson. >> he's a decorated officer, not only for an officer involved shooting that occurred in 2007 but he also received a life-saving award in 2005. >> reporter: according to officials, kenny a 12-year veteran of the force and a former coast guardsman giving robinson cpr. tony robinson's family is urging people to demonstrate, but to do it peacefully. meanwhile, the officers behind me patrolling this scene 24 hours a day securing it but they aren't in charge anymore thanks to a law just passed last year in wisconsin. all officer-involved shootings must be investigated by a third
8:05 am
party. the state's division for criminal investigation now tasked with finding out the facts in this case. dan? >> this is going to be a closely watched investigation for sure. linzie, thank you. and as we said these events in madison are playing out against the backdrop of history, the 50th anniversary of this, the brutal beating of marchers in selma, alabama, simply calling for the right to vote and this weekend, a new march over that same bridge with some of those same marchers and with america's first black president in the lead, and abc's steve osunsami was right there for history. steve, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to dan. the edmund pettus bridge will be closed this morning and the families who remain in selma will march across it late today. take a look. thousands from across the country crossing the edmund pettus bridge with the president, his family, president george w. bush, the former first lady and selma city leaders and thousands more crowding the streets of selma, a nod to the difficult history here. >> we know the march is not yet over.
8:06 am
we know the race is not yet won. >> reporter: he said selma is a place where the meaning of america was defined. the americans who crossed this bridge, they were not physically imposing but they gave courage to millions. robbing this country requires more than singing its praise s it requires the occasional disruption, the willingness to speak out for what is right. to shake up the status quo. that's america. >> reporter: on this very bridge more than 80 demonstrators fighting for black voting rights were beat down with billy clubs by alabama police. congressman john lewis on the bridge that day in selma again saying his work continues. >> get out there and push and pull and to be redeemed a soul of america. >> reporter: young demonstrators fresh from the streets of ferguson complain that there's too much celebrating. >> there is a little too much happiness going on with too many dead bodies laying around the country. >> reporter: reverend clark
8:07 am
olsen was here in 1965. this is him then. he and unitarian minister james reed were walking back to a church when they were attacked and reed was killed. >> we were attacked by four or five white men. >> reporter: one of two white demonstrators who died. do you ever forget that day? >> no. no. >> reporter: he says it's not right but it took the death of a white minister to change the conversation in this country and eventually the voting rights act became law. paula. >> such a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement, steve, thank you. and turning now to 2016 and the race for the white house where democratic front-runner hillary clinton speaking in florida continued to size up an e-mail that raises questions about transparency and double standrds. republicans too, they were out in iowa on the campaign trail pressing their case and abc's david wright is on the beat in cedar rapids. ♪
8:08 am
>> reporter: in miami, bill clinton preached the gospel of transparency defending big money donations from foreign governments. >> so my theory about all this is disclose everything. >> reporter: but hillary clinton made no mention of the controversy over her use of a private e-mail account for official business. >> chelsea and i did a little talk on snapchat. >> reporter: but while mrs. clinton shied away from the controversy, late night tv jumped on the opportunity. >> you want to check my netflix, go ahead. nothing to hide. every day i watch "house of cards" from start to finish. >> reporter: transparency is at the heart of the e-mail controversy. president obama told cbs news it was news to him that the blackberry she carried everywhere as secretary of state did not have a government e-mail address. >> the policy of my administration is to encourage transparency, and that's why my e-mails, the blackberry that i carry around, all those records are available and archived. >> reporter: hey, are you excited to be in iowa? >> i am. i am. >> reporter: here in iowa jeb bush has his own baggage to deal with. >> a lot know me as george's
8:09 am
boy or barbara's boy or w.'s brother all of which i'm proud of. >> reporter: but now he's eager to make the case he's his own man. >> i want to win. i want our party to win. i want conservatives to win. >> reporter: you sold? >> not quite sold yet. >> reporter: this was bush's first campaign trip to iowa. he's been here of course before campaigning for his father and for his brother but this was his first as a candidate. the voters that we spoke with were inclined to give him a hearing but some told us the bush name could be a liability. dan. >> david wright, great to have you on the campaign trail in iowa this morning. and for more let's bring in abc news chief anchor george stephanopoulos who will be hosting "this week" later this morning. >> hi, dan. >> so jeb took some rivenls by sticking to his unpopular stances on immigration and education. he says he's willing to risk losing the primary in order to win the general. but don't you need to maybe -- i've never been good at math but
8:10 am
don't you need to win the primary in order to play in the general. >> no question about it. he's going to have a tough balancing act all through this primary campaign. he's facing real questions from conservatives over immigration, over those common core educational standards, but the bet he's making is that there's no way he can win the general election as a republican if republicans don't do better with minorties young people as they've done in the past and a lot of what they say is that mitt romney went too far some say in 2012 flip-flopping to make himself viable in the general election. >> let's talk about the democrats now and put putative front-runner hillary clinton -- >> she is the front runner. >> well, but she hasn't declared she's in the race. anyway, let's not get into semantics. anyway, she has sidestepped the e-mail issue. but this story seems to have legs. how big a problem is it? >> i think we'll find out. i don't think necessarily it'll bring down her campaign and raise questions about a pattern of kind of hunkering down in the clinton world.
8:11 am
we'll also see if her critics overreact on this one but no question those e-mails rg3 go be to turned over most of them are going to come out. the question is what is inside them? is there anything damaging there? if not i think this tends to blow over, but i think this was a wake-up call to the clinton campaign about the kind of questions they're going to be getting all through this process. >> george stephanopoulos. it's always a tough morning when george corrects you on political issues. thank you, george. appreciate. great to see you. i'll recover. a reminder, george has a big show. much more on the e-mail story with a man who has a unique perspective, the former secretary of state colin powell and you can tweet george your suggestions for questions @gstephanopoulos. thanks again, george. >> thank you, george thanks, dan. >> let's turn to ron tracking the other news headlines and we'll begin overseas. >> good morning to you, paula and dan. good morning, everyone. we do begin overseas with two of world's most brutal terrorist groups joining forces. the nigerian islamist group boko haram taking to twitter swearing allegiance to isis. abc's alex marquardt is live in london with more on that and what it means.
8:12 am
alex. >> reporter: good morning, ron. that's right. two of the world's most chilling names in global terrorism coming together, boko haram's leader announcing in an audio message they are swearing allegiance to isis. this, of course, is a group that has kill ded thousands in their home country of nigeria and kidnapped those hundreds of schoolgirls last year. now, what this alliance actually means in practical terms has yet to be determined but boko haram now becomes the latest global isis franchise. its brutal ideology on the march around the world now extending all the way from libya and egypt to afghanistan and pakistan and only growing by the day. ron. >> okay alex. thanks. alex marquardt reporting from london. today marks one year since the disappearance of malaysia flight mh-370. in china relatives of some of the missing passengers gathering to pray for family members who were on that flight. this as some startling new details from the investigation come from a team of international investigators releasing their interim report overnight which says the battery in the plane's data recorder, the flight data
8:13 am
recorder expired in 2012 more than a year before that jetliner went missing. searchers spent weeks listening for its pings. reports say the battery in the cockpit voice recorder was operational though. and chaos at a college party in california. nine students rushed to the hospital after the garage roof they were partying on came crashing down. the collapse caught on camera and none of the injuries is life-threatening, but one person was impaled in the thigh with a piece of wood. and a tense situation in london overnight caught on camera. a 23-year-old man somehow got to the roof of the house of parliament. he managed to stay up there walking across the roof for eight hours before a negotiator managed to get him down. he is now facing several charges including trespassing. and finally, some laundry instructions causing a social media firestorm. an indonesian sportswear company apologizing for printing, you see it there washing instructions saying give this jersey to your woman. it's her job. >> oh! >> timing is everything. today is international women's day.
8:14 am
>> i can't do laundry. my husband doesn't want to give me the laundry. everything would be pink. >> i'm going to leave that thing alone. sara, you were agitated by that. >> sara has nothing to say. sara, just give me your -- >> rendered speechless. >> laundry is actually my only domestic skill. >> men can do it too. >> yeah and if max ever sent me to the laundry room, done. >> a finish on it. >> but do you do the laundry? >> yeah, i love laundry. >> okay, there you go. >> she's not required to. you don't have to do it. >> you have to want to do it. okay. thank you very much. >> happy international women's day. >> yes, thank you. i appreciate that very much. switching gears, actor harrison ford continues to recover this morning from injuries suffered when he was forced to crash land his small plane. his son tweeting he is of strong mind, body and spirit, this as we're learning new details about that flight, which ended in a brush with death for the star and abc's brandi hitt has the story from los angeles. >> reporter: this morning harrison ford is recovering
8:15 am
after his thursday plane crash. his son tweeting an update on the action star's recovery overnight. "dad has the best care possible. on the mend and of strong mind, body and spirit." ford's horrific flight from takeoff to crash landing all transpired in under five minutes. at approximately 2:19 ford cleared for departure from the santa monica airport in his world war ii era ryan pt aircraft. >> ryan, 178, runway 2, 1. clear for takeoff. >> reporter: the hollywood icon, an avid pilot flying westbound towards the pacific, 90 seconds later making this frantic call back to the control tower at 2:21. >> 53-178, engine failure, immediate return. >> reporter: his terrifying descent at 85 miles per hour back to the busy private airport, all captured on video by stunned neighbors. >> hope he's going to make it. >> ryan 178 runway 3 clear to land. >> reporter: but ford never made it to runway 3. at approximately 2:22 going down on penmar golf course 400 yards
8:16 am
from the air important runway. >> if harrison ford decided to turn around to head back to the airport, that tells us that he probably had over 900, maybe,000 feet of altitude and he figured he had enough to make it. >> there's a plane down. >> reporter: these photos snapped ten minutes after the crash as rescue workers rush a badly injured ford to ucla medical center. the mangled remains of his vintage plane removed the next day by national transportation safety board investigators. this morning still working to determine the cause of the star's brush with death. >> it's a 1942 vintage aircraft so there's not a lot of computers to it and so a lot of it is old school. we'll see what it is. we'll look at everything. >> reporter: you heard harrison ford calling the control tower to report that engine failure. he is expected to make a full recovery here at ucla medical center. his family says he is battered but okay. still no word on when he'll be released from the hospital. dan and paula. >> battered but okay. brandi, thank you.
8:17 am
we switch gears as we slog toward the finish line of this seemingly unending definitely insufferable winter. everybody has been looking for even the smallest signs that spring may be near. >> signing like hear ging a robin sing, the first pitch of the baseball season, which is my favorite, and the reason that i think we're all a little sluggish this morning, daylight saving time. it's been over a month since that groundhog predicted six more weeks of winter, and it's safe to say we are ready for it to end. boston's had almost 106 inches of snow this year and needs only 2 more inches of the white stuff to beat their all-time record. over half of the country remains covered in snow from chicago to d.c. and new york city. even the south had a bitter chill to swallow. the snow and slop just won't stop, and while kids are having a ball, it means some parents have to get creative to exert their little one's energy.
8:18 am
but spring is just around the corner and the first sign daylight saving. which means we can look forward to easter egg hunts, the easter bunny and peeps. >> thank you, easter bunny. >> reporter: buds blooming on trees, the masters, march madness, the first of the baseball season precipitation of a different variety is on the way. so look out, winter. >> watch out. >> reporter: spring is almost here. so long, winter. marciano said doing a snow angel on tv would be a career killer. but anyway -- >> we'll see. >> we want to clarify, we have the official countdown right there, but just to clarify exactly 12 days to spring. the vernal equinox occurs at what time -- >> 6:45. i'm missing all thesefullying
8:19 am
butterfly butterflies. awesome. >> it's like avatar up in here. >> thanks for getting us in the mood for spring, paula. this is fantastic. >> you're welcome. >> it's 12 days away and yeah, it doesn't want to end, does it? we have proof actually that things are beginning to melt. we take you to bayfield, wisconsin, where the ice fields -- keep those butterflies happy. >> there's one on your shoulder. >> the ice caves there off lake superior, they're beginning to melt, and today might be the last day to get access to those so more celebration unless you really really like ice caves and winter. also, the amount of snow coverage over the u.s. has dropped significantly just in the last two days. two days ago we were at 51% coverage and this morning, 31.5%. so that is just amazing how much we've come down and we'll continue to shrink. because this warming trend is going to continue. this is the 24 hief hour-hour change in temperature from yesterday morning. you bumped up 24 degrees in shreveport, louisiana, plus 7 in louisville where you still have snow and almost a 20-degree
