on. they actually flipped the switch early. >> reporter: the pilots, heard on air traffic control recordings, discussing the mistake. >> somebody went in and shut down everything that had to do with landing at this airport. shut down the lights, nobody to talk to. >> reporter: instrument landing systems, or ils, are installed at both ends of a runway. allowing aircraft to land when visibility was low. >> no way they could have successfully or safely shot an approach into wilmington with both the runway lights and the instrument landing systems off. >> reporter: both planes were able to return safely to their departure airports. but questions still remain about the miscommunication. >> it was an unnecessary risk that was caused by human error and poor supervision and poor attention to detail. >> reporter: one of the passengers, sergeant kim munley. she was hailed a hero after she took down the shooter in the

fort hood massacre four years ago. they are looking into safeguards, don't want a repeat performance. >> a lot of questions. we want the answers. thank you. and move on to the hunt for isis. and the killer who killed two americans. they know who it is, says the fbi. pierre thomas, you spoke directly with the director of the fbi. >> yes, i did. the fbi director believes they have identified the isis radical appearing in the horrific videos. and he had a blunt assessment in a meeting with me and a small number of reporters. this morning, the masked man in this barbaric video speaking in what sounds like a british accent and preparing james foley for execution has been identified. they declined to name the suspect, but made clear one of the most exhaustive forensic investigations in recent memory

has yielded results. fbi and british investigators have deployed a variety of techniques, including face and voice analysis and the study of the terrain at the scene. >> i think it's going to be extremely difficult to locate him until we degrade their operations a little further. >> reporter: the fbi director also confirmed that two men in this new isis propaganda video are the focus of an intense investigation. the reason? they appear to be speaking in north american accents, meaning potential threats to the homeland. isis would be looking to respond to u.s. military action. quote, if anything, it increases their desire i'm sure to find a way to strike here. and there was a warning about the khorasan, the spin off of al qaeda in syria, planning to attack aircraft with undetectable bombs. he says the plan to attack

remains an urgent threat despite them being hit by military strikes. the khorasan was at the top of the list of worries. he is assuming that the military strikes in syria didn't kill them all. and the threat from them can surface, in his words, tomorrow. >> i'm sure it's a hot topic on sunday. now the shocking dash cam video. a state trooper shooting an unarmed driver during a traffic stop. the officer has been fired and is facing charges and driver survived. >> one south carolina state rep says he doubts the trooper would have been charged without it. four shots in three seconds, and what appears to be jones' wallet flies from his hands as he raises them. take a look, the startling shooting appears to start as a routine traffic stop. levar jones pulled over for a

seat belt violation whether that happens. >> your license please. get out of the car. >> reporter: watch again. sean gruber, captured by his dash cam, asking jones to get his drivers license, but when jones reaches into the car, gruber fires. at least four shots. >> down on the ground. >> you said get my license. >> reporter: jones, shot in the hip and in pain. >> i can't feel my legs. >> reporter: but wants the answer to one question. >> why did you shoot me? >> you dove head first in the car. >> reporter: police say jones didn't have a gun, nor any indication he did. jones telling abc news i thank god i'm here with a story to tell. my recovery is coming along well, and hope this can make a change not just here in south carolina, but coast to coast. as for officer gruber, he was not only fired for the shooting,

but has been charged with assault and battery. the arrest warrant calling the shooting unlawful and without justification. >> you said get my license. >> reporter: gruber has entered a plea of not guilty. his attorney telling reporters jones was aggressively reaching for the license, leading him to believe it was a firearm and making him fear her his life and the safety of others. in 2012, gruber was involved in another shooting at a traffic stop after the suspect shot first. and he was given an award for that. now he could face up to 20 years behind bars. >> this is why dash cam video is so crucial. it's very expensive for many police departments to have that. for both sides, for the police officer and those pulled aside, helps. >> such a crucial story there. now to amy with the other top developing stories. we begin with breaking news

from detroit. a bridge collapsing over a major highway. we're told this is a pedestrian overpass that fell on to the southfield freeway. a truck struck the bridge. at least one person has been injured and the highway is closed. more information as we get it. and a warning overnight about a dangerous new computer bug that could allow hackers to seize control of millions of devices. it's the bash bug, also known as shell shock. affects non-windows operating systems includiing mac and linu. it cannot be stopped by changing the password. it's up to apple to develop security patches for the systems and servers. so please check for updates. new unrest in ferguson, missouri. it came as police chief tom jackson was addressing protesters calling for him to resign. a scuffle then broke out. several people were arrested. just hours earlier, chief

because lower gas prices make everything we buy cheaper to ship and gives the drivers extra money to spend at restaurants and stores. that can give the whole economy a boost. and market watchers say as many as 30 states can see prices below $3 by the end of the year. >> we'll take it. thank you. and finally, you know what they say? through rain, sleet or snow. but one mailman may have the best excuse ever for not delivering a package. look what he wrote on the delivery slip. failed to deliver because of bear at door. he left the slip at a neighbor's house. it all happened in canada. the homeowner got the notice and said fair enough. and guess what, he saw outside of his house, there was the black bear. back for a visit. proof right there that that mailman was not kidding when he said bear at door. >> that's an excuse. >> he's going to try the next day. >> bear was coming for the package. >> sees something good inside. >> thanks, amy.
