8:02 am
have a nice day. >> much more on that story coming up. but we're going to start with this electric and momentous victory on the racetrack, american pharoah racing into history, as the first horse to capture the triple crown in 37 years. >> of course, the last horse to do that was affirmed way back in 1978, look at that almost black and white video. as "the new york times" has pointed out this morning america has elected five presidents and fought three wars since then, but that long, losing streak is broken, and we want you to look at this picture tweeted out by the jockey, victor espinoza, giving american pharoah a big kiss after that race. let's get it out to ron, who was right there trackside, overnight, a witness to history. ron, good morning. >> reporter: the outcome wasn't really a surprise and the race wasn't really close, but it was still exciting. the atmosphere here really electric as american pharoah ended that long, long triple crown drought. >> they're off in the belmont
8:03 am
stakes! >> reporter: american pharoah simply dominated the belmont stakes, the 3-year-old colt hesitating out of the gate but then he raced to the front of the field of eight and he and jockey victor espinoza never looked back. >> and it is american pharoah who leads! >> reporter: at the one-mile mark he began to pull away, and then down the stretch, american pharoah opening up and racing into horse racing history, winning by a comfortable 5 1/2 lengths as the crowd of 90,000 roared. >> american pharoah has won the triple crown! >> a special horse. >> reporter: special indeed, american pharoah is known for his imperfections. he wears cotton in his ears so he doesn't get distracted during a race. and a piece of his tail is missing, bitten off by another horse. but none of that mattered as he captured first the kentucky derby last month, and two weeks later, winning preakness easily.
8:04 am
and then yesterday, the test of champions, the grueling mile and a half belmont. where so many triple crown dreams have died. for american pharoah, it was a no contest. >> the fact that this horse could accelerate down the lane is really, really mind-boggling. >> in order for you to come and win the triple crown you have to define greatness, he does everything so easy. >> reporter: giving veteran trainer bob baffert his first triple crown in his fourth attempt. >> i was prepared for somebody coming. i was hoping for once, and all i did was just take in the crowd. >> american pharoah is finally the one! >> reporter: american pharoah doing what no other horse has done since affirmed 37 years ago. >> we all wanted it. we wanted it for this sport. so, i'm happy for the horse, for the fans and for this man. >> and how much is american pharoah worth?
8:05 am
we have heard estimates anywhere from $20 million to $100 million and the 90,000 fans here yesterday, they didn't do badly, 9 million was bet to win on american pharoah. that translates to about $5.5 million won by people here in this crowd. you may be wondering what next for american pharoah? he's going to ship out later this morning to churchill downs to rest but his owner says he'll race again this year. dan and paula >> so cool. ron, you bet a little bit as well. we'll talk to you about that later in this show. we're going to move on now to the other big story of the morning, history of a very different kind. for the first time in 150 years, an audacious escape from a maximum security prison. the manhunt is on right now for these two men. both doing life for murder. they're both now on the loose and considered extremely dangerous. we're going to speak exclusively with the governor in a moment.
8:06 am
but first, let's go to abc's phillip mena who's on the scene. >> reporter: dan, good morning. at the top of the hill there is the prison. the killers crawling through the sewers and emerging from a manhole at the end of the block there. it was a dramatic escape in the middle of a quiet residential neighborhood. this morning, an all-out manhunt for two killers on the loose. u.s. marshals, the fbi, along with local officers setting up roadblocks. searching with canines, helicopters and going door to door. >> be on the lookout for two escapees from the clinton county correction facility. >> reporter: a desperate search for these two men, richard matt and david sweat, behind bars for killing a sheriff's deputy. somehow escaping this fortress,
8:07 am
new york's largest maximum-security prison. >> they are dangerous. >> reporter: the men last seen at bedtime late friday night, in neighboring cells, discovered missing at bed-check. guards finding sweaters stuffed underneath the covers. the murderers' escape stunning. the men apparently cutting their way through concrete walls, carving through brick walls and steel crates. using power tools. the men somehow obtained without the guards' knowledge. scaling six stories of prison pipes before emerging in a city sewer. outside the prison walls. >> we don't know how they acquired the tools. >> reporter: this morning, residents in the area on edge. >> they're on pins and needles right now. >> reporter: now waiting for these two killers behind this calculated escape to make a mistake. which will lend them back behind bars. that will the hope here, they'll be caught soon. as you can see this morning, this neighborhood is still being
8:08 am
guarded by armed officers. dan? >> phillip mena, thank you. let's go now to the governor of new york, andrew cuomo, ginning us exclusively on the phone this morning. you skipped the belmont stakes yesterday and traveled up to the prison to trace the escape route. did they have outside help to obtain the power tools? >> there were a number of contractors who are working in the facility to improve it, and that's what we're going through now, but it was a really sophisticated operation. >> how could they use these power tools in a maximum-security prison without anybody hearing them? >> well, that's -- i chatted with a couple of the inmates myself. you must be a very heavy sleeper, they were heard, they had to be heard. they're going through steel, they're then in a series of catwalks.
8:09 am
remember 1865, the building was built. it has an infracture of metal catwalks behind the cells. they worked their way down four stories from the catwalks. shimmying down pipes. they cut into the steel pipe. they shimmied through a steam pipe, which, if it's 24 inches, it's wide, they come up from a manhole cover, about a block from the prison wall. >> these men committed brutal, brutal crimes, have you spoken at all with the families of the victims and do we know how they're doing this morning? >> we're reaching out to the families of the victims and you're exactly right, dan, the first order of business is to get these killers back, because this was the first breakout since 1865 and i want to make sure that it's the last.
8:10 am
>> governor andrew cuomo, we thank you for your time this morning. and paula, the governor also spoke about the fact that the inmates left behind a note saying, have a nice day. when they capture them, they're going to give them back that note. >> how did nobody hear them? how did they know the inner workings of that prison? >> lot of questions to be asked about security inside that prison. >> thanks, dan. we want to turn to that severe weather, 30 million americans in the crosshairs for heavy rain and winds. rob has more. we had flooding rains yesterday. and severe weather funnel cloud outside the university of south dakota yesterday. more of this activity today. pretty wide range of severe weather today. got a complex of thunderstorms moving through northern illinois and parts of wisconsin this morning. that will weaken as it gets to
