police releasing this surveillance image of rohinie bisesar monday taken moments after they say she plunged a knife into a woman at a toronto subway station, seemingly at rarandom. >> by all accounts it is an unprovoked attack. the victim does not recognize ththe suspecas someone that she does know. >> reporter: it happened friday at a drugstore inside the station. investigators say around 2:55 p.m. bisesar walked in with a knife and stabbed an unidentified woman in her 20s. the victim now in serious but stable condition and bisesar ill on the run. >> apparentnt, she is well-educated. and the financial district is somewhere that she frequents. we're asking for the public's assistance and trying to find her. >> reporter: police are calling bisesar violent and dangerous but sathey are baffled by a possibleotive. her linkedin page revealing her leadership roles in organizations for women in business. one professor at her university praising her on the site writing

outststanding ality of her work and for her warmth and interpersonal skills." >> w there se event in the hours or even days before this attack that would have enraged her to go out and harm a particular person or random person? >> reporter: now, friends describe the attack as completely out of character and bisesar has no criminal record. police are advising residents not to approach her if they see her but to call the authorities right away because, again, they are saying she's dangerous. we cover a lot of unusual stories. this is very unusual. a lot of questions as to why thisis happene >> hopefully they will find her so she doesn't cause harm to others or herself. >> orheherself, exactly. >> it's a strange one. >> thank you. a dramatic rescue on mt. hood. four members of an oregon family, including two young children, trapped overnight in deep snow. they're speaking out about how

arrived. abc's neal karlinsky reports. >> reporter: what should have been a fun family day out, turned into a race of the clock bracing 20-degree temperatures. jose correa took his fiance, ally baluta and two brothers to mt. hood looking for the best hill for sledng. but with 44 inches of snow falling over the last week, the drive quickly turned treacherous. jose soon found his truck stuck on a desolate path. his rear wheels soon buried in the four-foot-deep snow with no cell phone service they were stuck with no way out and no way to communicate. >> it was scary, yeah. >> i was just like on and off crying. >> reporter: with powder up to their chests, the group hunkered down in their truck leaving it running eating t the few scks they had left waiting till daylight to venture out. >> if i would have panicked they would have panicked too. i was calm, i was, you know, telling them that everything wasas going to be okay. >> reporter: fortunately jose's mom posted the group's last

i was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. then my doctor told me about eliquis. eliquis treatsvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots, but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. knowing eliquis had both... turned around my thinking. don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. if you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily... anit may take longerhan usual for bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis treats dvt & pe blood clots. plus had less major bleeding.

ask your doctor if it's right for you. feel a cold sore coming on? only abreva can heal it in as few as two and a half days when used at the first sign. it penetrates deep and starts to work immediately

don't tough it out, knock it out, fast. abreva.

back now with that wild story of the texas plumber whose company trtruck withts logo and phone number still on it somehow ended up in the hands of isis fighters and in a propaganda video. he is now suing the dealer that resold the car. and abc's david wright is here with that story. good morning, david. >> rorter: good morning, robin. they say there's no such thing as bad publicity. well, let me tell you about this plumber. free advertising worldwide of the worst sort. his pickup truck ending up on the front lines of syria featured prominently in isis propaganda, so h he's now ling suit. the black ford f-250 still has his logo but the dudes who now drive it clearly aren't interested in fixing any leaks. >> my secretary y called mand said, you can't believe this. >> reporter: that's his old truck, now 7,000 miles away from texas city, texas, with quite the gun rack in back. there it is in action. isis militants firing the anti-aircraft gun, the logo and

clear as the intentions of those isis militants in the ski masks. >> i really at first thought it was just somebody playing with us. >> reporter: the plumber mark oberholtzer says when he traded in the truck to a dealer, ey told him they'd rather remove the decal so as not to risk scratching the paint. but when these pictures started poppining up on tremist twitter feeds a year ago today, it became clear the dealer never removed it. tracking the truck on the used car site carfax, it went from an auction in houston, texas, to mersin, turkey, from there ending up somewhere near aleppo, syria, in the hands of jihadidists. oberholtzer says death threats started pouring in over the switchard. >> s was getting constant calls, threats, nothing about plumbing. >> reporter: now those photos p up on his yelp page. they even made it on to the final episode of "the colbert

report." >> a texas plumber's work truck showed up in syria although pickup truck, desert, machine gun, that could still be texas. >> reporter:he plumber is now suinthe dealer for a million bucks claiming mark-1's revenues were lost and the company's reputation was irretrievably damaged. the plumber says this was free advertising he could do without. >> i don't need this press and i don't need the threats to my family. reporter: well, the plumber was even questioned d by the f and homeland security about this. of course, we reached out to the dealership auto nation which essentially blamed the auctionerk er. they say the truck was sent out for auction as soon as it came in. and the d dealer said it's unfortunate that the customer has had to go through this. you don't say, robin. what he has to say about this. you feel f for the g. legally ere does he stand? >> you can understand why he's furious, upset. there's no question there's sort of damages here. mean you can hold the dealership

responsisible. it's a tough legal case. they're throwing all sorts of possible legal theories here hoping that one will stick but the key queson is, was it negligence? should they have known better in effect, than to allow this to happen? and one of the questions when you're talking about negligence is foreseeability. meaning could you have foreseen that these sorts of damages would occur? you could sasay it's feseeable there would be damages and he's got a suit. you certainly couldn't have foreseen it would end up in the hands of isis is syria. >> no, you couldn't have foreseen that. but the plumber is saying that he was trying to take down the name and number and that the dealer stopped him from doing it. >> he said that the dealer said don't worry about it. we've got a better way to do it. that's the heart of his ca, the heart of his case is about that decal. meaning, they should have taken it off. they should have known that no one e should bdriving around in thisruck with this decal and that is certainly the strongest part of his argument. >> looking for damages, he's really look for more here. >> he's looking to clear his name.

yesterday. congratulations on the golden globe nomination. >> thank you, thank you very much. that's -- it's goioing well. this one, i was a little conflicted when i first took this film so it feels good that pepeople areesponding well to it. >> and i'm going to talk about how you were conflicted in just a moment but first, , followin him around, he performs autopsies. you really spent a lot of time to get the sense of who this man is, didn't you? >> yeah, he is such a beautiful man. he was here yesterday, so he is -- he's just sweet and brilliant. he has eight degrees. yoknow, soe's a man of science, but paradoxically he's a deeply spiritual man, you know, so it's like how he blends those two things that -- the science and the spirituality into one just gorgeous being. >> when someone is on his table he treats them as a patient

speaking tthem. >> yes, i saw him perform four autopsies, so, you know, because you know i take my wor seriously, you know, so i'm committed. so, i went in there with him and an autopsy is aggressive, it really is and i went and i watched him, and he sees himself as a deliverer of souls, you know, so he's playing music, he's talking to the person and he sort of sees himself delivering the soul from this world to the next, you know, so as an actor it was just ecstatic to finthat depth of interesting character. >> so, we know how you feel about him. this is what he said about you yesterday. >> oh, okay. >> he took my story and the story of cte from the depths of the california central valley to

the american mountain under the american psyche and for this i'm profoundly grateful. >> a he said he'd see you at the globes too. >> i love that guy. >> do you take on an added sense of responsibility? this is not the first time you've played a real-life character as you did that received oscar nominations. do you approach it differently? >> i don't approach it differently as much as there's a little bit more weight to it. specifically with "concussion," we shot in pittsburgh. so, the families of a lot of the players were on the set. some of the locations we used were the actually places that the things happened, so there was an added burden and responsibility to the fact that these are people's lives that you're actually going to see and they're going to watch the movie. >> and as you alluded to earlier, you were a little conflicted in the beginning because dr. omalu took a lot of

heat from the nfl saying you're anti-football. you're anti-sports, and you too approached it at first going i'm not quite sure about it because your son plays -- >> my son played for four years and it was some of the most beautiful time that we have had together. you know, this is not an anti-football movie. you know, i love football. i grew up inhilly. i'm a football fan. my eagles, you know, so it was a very inconvenient truth, the reality of the science and as a parent, i knew that i didn't know when my s was playing fofootball. i didn't know that repetitive head trauma from the game could cause long-term brain injury. >> and that's what dr. omalu was about was finding the truth, getting to the truth. >> they can make whatever decion they want, but for me as a parent i was

>> and you really did. you did that. i cannot believe it's been 25 years since "fresh prince of bel-air." i think we have some of the first episodes. >> oh, no. >> oh, yeah. it all started here. this is where it all started. >> tragedy >> you could not have known 25 years ago it would have the legs it had. >> that does not look like a guy nominated for a golden globe. >> you're going to hit the road. >> yeah, about -- jeff and i, we never actually had a chance to go on tour because "fresh prince of bel-air" came on on in 1990 and our first real hit was 1988 so never really had a chance to go on tour. >> you're going to change that. >> we're going to change that this summer. >> all right. >> i'll see you out there. >> you'll see my face in the place. >> throw on your baseball cap backwards. >> advantage your move. all the best to you, and to jada

robin, if you have your label, make you something, i'm sure amy and i would wear it. >> i'll keep that in mind. but, you know, we're thinking double trouble. both gals nominated for the same category, best actress in a comedy o or musical, so that should be a great night. they're not taking over for tina and amy because nobody ever could but this duo is pretty powerful and pretty fun so we'll see if they can pull off the twinsy lo. >> why was it before a major fashion faux pas to wear the same -- >> you do have it easy. we're wearing tuxes this year. twinsy. also in "pop news" this morning, it is a magical morning for harry potter fans, just a couple of hours ago the very first trailer for "fantastic beasts and where to find them" starring eddie redmayne appeared on twitter.

>> yesterday a wizard out of new york with a case full of magical creatures and unfortunately some have escaped. >> it was open? >> just a smidge. >> jusust come i >> uh-oh. just a smidge, but apparently a big enough smidgdge that aig hairy beast escaped. at least that's my interpretation. it ishe first wizarding project by j.k. rowling since the last harry potter movie in 2011. someone tells me this one starring colin farrell and jon voight will cause quite atir at the box office when it comes out. >> love harry potter. great books even for adults and not embarrassed to say. >> you're still like a child. >> touche. >> yes. and then finally everybody has different ways of recognizing their luggage at airports, especially during busy holiday timimes like is. you know, name tags, some people tie ribbons around the straps.
