coming in. our keir simmons is in the london bureau mitoring this. wht re you hearing? >> theicture we're getting is chaotic likely because the scene on the ground across pis appears to be chaotic, but what we are hearing from a french television networ that network, unconfirmed reports that 18 people are dead. we are we are heang various reports as you mentioned of three different incidents. as i go through them, that television network againis saying that there is a restaurant shootout. it is also reporting a bar explosion nethe stadium. menwhile, the afp is saying that hostages have been taken at a concert hall. so this is very, very early and we just began in t lthour to hear the initial reports of i have seen video taken by somne on

hear rounds rin out again and again in what sounds like an explosion and a man filming saying they're shooting. there are people fromhe army and police here in paris. 's a shooting again. shooting. -- s difficult to establish at this stage whether there are three separate incidents and that is the picture as far as we can tell. unconfirmed at this stage from variousreports from various agenes and journalists on the ground, lester. >>e simmons monorg this now fom our london bureau. if you see some of the pictes that9 we have been watching coming into the newsroom and a chaotic situation and clearly there are a numb casualties and this comes from the "charlie heb hebdo" attacks and we recall there the waiting and confusion as things play out.

so we'll try and tell you what we know and what we don't know as this goes along, but a night of violence and a very confusing situation with, as we mentioned, a high number of casualties in paris. we continue to watch this as events unfold and we'll come back on the air, and of course, full coverage from our team coming up on nbc "nightly news." for now, i'm lester holt, nbc news. >> a very fluid situation back here. we are taking a look now at live pictures in paris, i think the take aways of what we just heard. police say initially that 18 people have been killed and that number, of course, likely to change and they are investigating three separate incidents, a shootout at a restaurant and a possible explosion at a bar near a stadium. an associated press reporter within that stadium, fran germany were having a friendly ccer match. he said the explosions were loud enough to penetrate the sounds of cheering

in the third incident is a possibility that hostages have been taken inside a concert hall. some of the things that officials there in paris will be looking at. are all these incidents confirmed? and are any, at all connected? we'll stay with this and for now i'll send it back to uhe studio, pat. >> chris, thanks. it's being called a major tactical success for the u.s. in the fight against isis. we are learning more about the air strike that's believed to have killed the isis executioner who became known as jihadi john. let's get that story from steve handelsman at the pentagon. steve? >> reporter: pat, thanks. before we look back at apparently the effort to take out jihadi john, it's important to point out that pentagon officials and anti-terrorist officials around the world have said that these videos attributed to jihadi john and not just him as the killer, but him in a way as the video

producer while they may have horrified tens of millions on this plnet, they were put out to recruit isis members worldwide and to inspire isis-style attacks in places like paris. so here at the pentagon today they are feeling pretty good and they found the guy and th targeted him due to sources of information that they want detail and they'll pull the trigger, they say when the notorious isis killer got into a vehicle. >> he was the murderous face of isis. u.s. commanders believe they got jihadi john in syria with the hellfire missile from a u.s. drone like this and they're hoping to confirm it. jihadi john not only beheaded hostages and others he had videos to attract recruits. >> his real name was muhammad

emwazi an educated british citizen who would have kept killing said the british prime minister justifying the drone tryin strike. >> this was in self-defense and it was the right thing to do. >> he beheaded ree america. ephen sotloff's mother said if they t him great, but it doesn't bring my son back. foley's family said if only so much effort had been given to finding and rescuing jim, they might be alive today. president obama ordered an ongoing rescue effort. in fact, the president personally authorized a raid. >> that was 2012 in syria. it failed, but obama officials say targeting emwazi sends isis a message. >> your days are numbered and you will be defeated. >> u.s. pilots this week, u.s. special forces and kurds are cutting isis supply lines into iraq from isis headquarters in raqqah where the air strike was

aimed at jihadi john. >> reporter: now comes the effort to confirm that the isis frontman is definitely dead. deep in syria could be difficult and could take time say officials here. at the pentagon, steve handelsman, news 4. and i'm chris lawrence back here at the live desk where we are keeping an eye on what's going on in and around paris. they're taking a look at pictures there from french media who are covering the story there on the ground. two police officials are saying at least 11 people have been killed in shootouts and other violence around paris. these conditions are going to change and you've seen this before and the details and the number of will be fluid for the next several hours and we'll keep the presence on the story and keep following it every step of the way.

live desk with some new information we are learning about the breaking news in paris. the a.p. is reporting that french president francois hollande was inside the stadium and he has left the stadium and is holding emergencyeetings after the deadly attacks. sources are telling nbc news that at least 18 people have been confirmed dead and multiple incidents around the city of paris. we are going to have live coverage on this story at the top of t hou pat? it has people wondering what

a former illinois police officer was really up to. authorities found all sorts of military gear that he had stashed away for his youth program. as phil rogers reports the disturbing story comes after the officer killed himself in what's been described as a carefully staged suicide. >> this entire room was filled to these ceilings. >> reporter: in the basement of a community center in fox lake, this was joe gliniewicz's world. >> when i came down here i was overwhelmed. >> reporter: this was the headquarters of gliniewicz's explorer post packed with military equipment, investigators say he never should have had. ballistic helmets, radios, gas masks and bulletproof vests and hundreds upon hundreds of items suppld by the military in the belief they were sending them to foxlake police and not to gliniewicz a his police explorers. >> we believe gliniewicz was forging the chief's name to obtain much of this equipment. reporte and it was all the real thing. here amid the explorer trophies, kevlar helmets, gun belts and

fatigues, even manuals on s.w.a.t. tacticandsniper training. >> the police department doesn't even have this equipment. many police departments don't ve it >> reporter: ann marrin had become suspicious and confronted gliniewicz the day before he faked his own murder. >> i finally went tliniewicz an inventory, i want your procurement and where your authorization came from. >> reporter: investigators made another disturbing discovery and it came when they searched the area with drug-sniffing dogs. >> it did indicate two or three looks for the presence of narcotics and we did not find any. at one time there were narcotics down here. >> reporter: autrities is how gliniewicz got this military hardware and what frauds might have been committed and one thing that's clear and troubling that the explorers were being trained more like soldiers than police. essentially these kids were being trained to kill on command and i don't think that's the

intention of the explorers or what the boy scouts intended these programs to be. news 4 at 5:00 begins with breaking news. >> we are following a number of breaking stories right now. the firsone is out of pis where police say there have been at least three separate attacks tonight with a lot of casualties. >> we are hring as many as1 to 18 fatalities in some reports and here's wt w do know for sure. paris police confirmed about an hour ago there was a shooting at a restaunt in downtown paris where several people were shot. another shooting reportedly playing out on livev and there was a bombing at a near bar close to a stadium and they could be working a hostage scene and chris lawrence at the live desk. >> we want to tell you about something going on right here effective to this. the nypdhas been monitoring events in paris and as a precaution, they are putting additional units deploying some
