many questions still outlying this in addition to the gun he was obviously holding and the truck itself. that truck, officials say, in france, was filled with weapons and so the big question is, of course, who is responsible, because we haven't had a group claim responsibility, but also did the driver have help in planning it? >> if he is a lone wolf, this would be the single deadliest attack by one person ever. the single deadliest terror attack by one person. france has been under attack as jennifer was alluding to. this is the fifth attack since january of last year there. >> it's too frequently we're reporting those stories. that's the news for this half hour.

france earlier in the day. now he's saying the u.s. is taking stepping to account for the welfare of all americans who are in nice. he is also urging u.s. citizens there to contact friends as well as families directly. >> let's get some analysis on this now. for that we're joined by a former fbi agent in charge and an abc contributor. steve, how do you protect about this kind of attack? how do you stop someone from getting their ands on a truck. >> typically we've looked at these types of trucks as the type of vehicles you use for delivering a bomb to a certain location. you saw it in new york and oklahoma city with timothy mcveigh. in this situation they used the actual truck as the weapon itself to mow down the victims, and so it's incredibly difficult, and it's going to start with barriers. you're going to have to have a way to prevent any type of

vehicle such as this one, especially, because it's so large from getting access to the a areas where people are celebrating. >> when you look at this attack, there's a couple of things that make it stand out. you have this one attacker and also the tactic used was different. >> absolutely. in these locations, you have barriers. you tend to have them. but whether you have concrete barriers, metal fencing, or wooden barriers with cop cars nearby, that's what's going to be examined as to what kind of measures they had at this location, because what you now saw is this type of truck as the ability to penetrate through certain barriers, whether it's the chain link fence or wood. they're going to have to evaluate how you protect against these types of attacks. >> and, steve, when you look at the way we respond to these things, we have metal detecters as airports.

there was notions of liquid bombs, and then planes were used as the weapons. now we're talking about road barriers. it seems like we're always responding to the attacks. is there any way to get ahead of this? >> well, we're going to have to get ahead of this. the fact is the terrorists are watching every attack that is occurring. and they're learning from those attacks, and then they're looking to use those same types of techniques. law enforcement has to do the same thing. look at the types of attacks occurring worldwide, not just in the u.s., but all over the world. we saw turkey and now another incident in france. law enforcement has to look at how these terrorists are using these types of -- whether it's weapons or vehicles, what have you, and they then have to deal with the security measures to ensure that that doesn't happen again, because the terrorists are going to look to do that. >> and when you look at this attack, it has got to be horrifying for counterterrorism experts.

that promenade is like the equivalent of south beach in miami. a soft target, as some people might say. what does this to many of the counterterrorism experts in the u.s. what are they starting to work on right now? >> when you're going to have a large event, there's already protocols in place with the fbi and local law enforcement when there's a big gathering of people, they usually corridor them off to make sure there's not access to vehicles. usually they're thinking about the bomb scenario. now the vehicle is attacking the victims. the problem is you have the beach areas in certain parts of the country where there are a lot of people, like venice and los angeles. you always have big crowds, and the fact is you're not going to be able to put barriers all around there. it's going to go back to the issue of gathering intel on potential people who are looking

to commit this type of attack. >> and steve, in terms of location, a lot of times when you think of targets, you think of capital cities, or in new york it was the world financial center. when you look at orlando or nice, these are vacation spots. how do you tell them to carry on when it seems like nowhere is safe? >> i hate to say nowhere is safe, but the terrorists are willing to attack anywhere in the world. it doesn't matter if it's well known or some kind of a sleepy city somewhere else around the world. they're going to attack where they have the opportunity. so everybody has to be aware. they have to be knowledgeable about these types of attacks, and there's so many different types we're seeing. the public has to just recognize this is a problem. this problem is not going away, and they have to be prepared to react if they think something like this is happening. we always say run, hide, fight, and in this case, a lot of

people were running, but we had a vehicle chasing them down. that was very unfortunate. >> and, steve -- >> the vehicle went a whole mile. >> what do you think of the weapons found inside the truck as well? >> there's still an investigation going on as to whether those are righteous weapons and explosives. they have been able to get access to firearms in other attacks. they have to look at how they're getting firearms to use them. the fact that the firearms and the explosives are in the back. it makes me wonder if there was somebody else that were going to be involved in the attack. so once the truck stopped, then they were going to join in in the fight. that's something that has to be looked at. the explosives, you know, how they get the explosive, they can build the explosives in their mother's kitchen. there's actual isis and al qaeda propaganda and rhetoric and information that guides these

sympathizers and how they build these types of explosives. that's something that's fairly readily accessible. the question is if it's going to go off. that's something they'll look at. >> the steve gomez. steve, thank you as always for joining us. we appreciate it. >> president obama condemned the terror attack and offered condolences to the families saying the u.s. stands in solidarity with france. >> donald trump also weighed in telling fox news if he were president he would ask congress to declare war on the islamic state, and he said he would make it very hard for people to come into the country from terrorist areas. >> it sounds like here we go again. we're living in a whole different world. there's no respect for law and order. there's no respect for anything or anybody. >> trump postponed plans to announce his running mate, saying it won't be appropriate in the aftermath of the attack. we have learned that trump will choose mike pence and pence flew to new york yesterday. trump is not saying when he will

make that announcement, but pence cannot seek two offices at the same time and has until noon tomorrow to withdraw from the governor's race. >> and we'll have continuing coverage. we should mention of the attack in nice. hillary clinton in the meantime, we should point out here on the political stage. trying now, a potential vice presidential pick. cane and clinton were at an earlier luncheon with two other possible running mates, elizabeth warren and brown of ohio. an announcement could come next week. >> new mexico's governor declared a state of emergency for a wildfire that's destroyed 31 homes. >> flames wiped out outbuildings and vehicles. they can't say when they'll be able to contain the fire. for you residents are being asked to evacuate voluntarily. further east, vicious storms
