announcer: from abc7 news, this is a breaking news alert. jonathan: that breakin' news we're following now is coming to us from turkey where several people were injured and ten people confirm dead after two explosions and then gunfire broke out at the major airport in istanbul. scott thuman is at the live desk monitoring the situation that seems to be changing by the minute. scott: the latest update is ten people killed in the suicide bomb attacks. the "associated press" reporting through the defense ministry of turkey they learned two suicide bombers were near the x-ray area of the international terminal there at ataturk airport when they were confronted by police. there was a shooting and they detonated the bombs killing at least ten, injured 40, perhaps more. those are just the initial report. turkey has been a target for quite some time. in fact, i was there reporting

year. when the u.s. consulate came under attack. ever since turkey joined the coalition in the fight in iraq and syria, they have become an even bigger target. they have the ongoing conflict with the ethnic population of kurds. so it's not completely out of hand that we'd see something like this. however, it's the first time we have seen anything of this nature, this scope. at the airport. this is a colossal airport. third busiest in all of europe behind london and paris. it's early in the process so no one has claimed responsibility. but you see the video and the chaos taking place as the taxi cabs ushered away the injured to hospitals. this is ataturk airport in istanbul. while we have seen some attacks in turkey over the past year, we have not seen anything of this nature just yet. we are continuing to watch this unfold.

blowing themselves up inside the airport. jonathan? jonathan: scott, i understand turkey has had issues dealing with isis since they border the state in which isis calls home. is this the first time we have seen something major like this happen? scott: in some respects, yes. i was there in august. it's the u.s. consulate and you are bordering syria. there are people crossing border who are syrian and many focus their attention on a closer target being istanbul because it aligned itself with the u.s. coalition forces with the fight against isis. that is one front. then you have angoing conflict that is decades old between the kurds who live there and of course istanbul. but this is the first time we have seen anything at the airport. the first time we have seen what looks like a coordinated suicide attack of th

ten dead is probably just the beginning as we begin to understand the large impact on this. we have seen images of a.k.-47's on the ground and we don't know if the bombers came armed with the guns as well. or if that was something that occurred in the skirmish. we understand according to the initial reports from the "associated press" that police and security forces saw these bombers and began firing at them prior to them detonating the bombs near the x-ray terminals. this is a very large airport. they are well aware they are a target and there is a lot of security at the airport. jonathan: scott thuman. thank you. michelle: we'll continue to monitor that story for breaking developments. the stormwatch7 weather team watching the skies for a chance of storms this afternoon. chief meteorologist doug hill is here. looking pretty cloudy out there. doug: look at the live shot of the u.s. capitol, still sunshine. but the live weather bug camera

minutes. look behind me. they have an airport mounted audio monitor to try to check to see how noisy it is here. like we said. those flights have been coming in every couple of minutes. we started the story in gravelly point. that is an aviation fan delight. 850 flights a day. it is loud there. we used the audio monitor and found 86 decibels. you have to shout to be heard. now another problem here is flights are starting earlier. 5:30 in the morning. after 11:00. in this neighborhood we found lower levels of noise. 70 decibels. you can talk but you have to talk loudly so people can hear you. some buildings in the area like lee street where we walk around it magnified the sound. i bounced off the buildings. listen as we are interviewing a gentleman and a plane flies over. >> we have a plane coming now while we are talking. >> yeah. >> we are having to talk a little bit

thank you for joining us. sorry it's under these circumstances. so you can offer a unique perspective here. tell our viewers what was it like to play as a student athlete knowing you are going to go head to head with coach summitt's team? jen: well, back in 1995, the first time we played them tennessee was it for women's basketball. it was everything that the rest of us wanted to be a part of and wanted to live up to. so at the time it was the beginning of uconn's run and their dynasty. the biggest game of the year. set the standard for the rivalry of uconn-tennessee that would become. for any competitor you want to play against the best. that's a compliment to her and what she accomplished. michelle: so much pressure for the students on the hardwood. as a young woman in sports when men still dominate what do you believe summitt's legacy has meant and how has it helped blaze the path for women like yourself? jen: for any young woman in coaching, i started when i was 25. she s

she set the standard. she paved the way for all of us. title ix came in effect when she started coaching and she created the opportunities for not just women to play but have equal chances to be, to have the gear and to have the success and the support. so for all of us that came after her, we benefited from all the hard work she put in. it's hard for me to speak about the legacy. i feel like i'm not worthy because of so much of what she accomplished. if i accomplished 10% of what she did i bead a successful basketball coach. michelle: you look at her path and it's incredible. winningest coach in history of men and women d1 basketball. eight national championships. those of us who didn't know her off the hardwood, what would you say just from your meetings with her as a professional, as a coach? what will you remember the most about her? jen: that is what is the most special

herself. she was compassionate and kind. she knew how to push student athletes to the. it will for all of us in coaching to understand that you can have coach relationship with kids, that you can be a family for them. you can be a support system for them. you can push them as hard as you can to their limits to be their best. to value what they do in the classroom and the opportunity. to see what she has done for the student athletes. that is really what being in coaching is all about. radderless of her win and championships, that speaks the most of pat summitt and what she has meant to the game. she taught us all how to do it the right way. michelle: reading a quote she often told the players you may not be the most talented or most skilled but you can be the most competitive. jen: absolutely. michelle: something we can all live by. coach rizzotti, thank you for joining us. jonathan? jonathan: all right, michelle. thank you. new developments in the benghazi attack. in the focus of today's abc7 instapoll we are asking if the new report in the 2012 attack in liby

attackers opened fire before detonating a bomb there. we knew there was some gunfire. now we understand perhaps one of the attackers, one of the suicide attackers opened up fire and detonated his own suicide bomb. we are also hearing now the numbers. ten people dead. at least 20 injured. fear that those will actually rise. meanwhile, flights that have any connection to the u.s. have been suspended. so flights from atatürk to the united states and vice versa with the ground stoppage now until they figure out exactly what is going on there. the state department sending out a couple of notes right now. one is that they are saying they with working furiously right now to figure out if any american civilians may have been casualties in this attack. and secondly they are encouraging you if you are an american, you are in turkey to reach out via social media and whatever means necessary

you are okay. a lot developing here. this is very new. with two suicide attacks so far, atatürk airport. they are trying to make sure they get a grip on this in case there are further attacks. we'll have more at the top of the 5:00 newscast. jonathan: scott, thank you. coming up for us at "abc7 news at 4:00" -- >> i think the public needs to be told the truth about contamination in their water supply. jonathan: wow! one group's stunning allegation about the water that 18 million americans are drinking every day. michelle: but first, the green of wimbledon outside the u.k.? we'll explain just ahead. fios is not cable. we're wired differently. so we wired the wagner's house th 100 meg internet. which means that in the time it takes mr. wagner's to pour a 20 oz. cup of coffee,

econds. that's the power of fiber optics. and right now you can get 100 meg internet with equal upload and download speeds, tv and phone for just $69.99 per month online. cable can't offer internet speeds this fast at a price this good. only fios can.

basically for the same reason. in the last three years the kids' eye injuries increased by 500% because of toys like that. hoverboard, you know very well.
