single. >> breaking news. terror attack in new york city. a people are dead as a terrace drive the truck down a right path. diane black has the full story. >> it happened just after 3:00 p.m. on tuesday. a man in a rental home depo pickup truck plowed down this street, killing eight people, injuring dozens of others. it took place near the world trade center site. >> we are just looking outside of the window.

a bunch of bicyclists were on the floor. it was so chaotic. >> he has been named as sayfullo saipov. in a press conference, bill de blasio confirmed it as terrorism. >> it was particularly cowardly. >> summer individuals described it as road rage. the driver entered the bike path near houston street. and then he got out of the truck with two handguns. the police later discovered the suspects weapons to be a paintball gun and a pellet gun. one witness captured the terrifying moment. >> he pointed a gun at me.

>> this happens hours before a planned halloween event. reporting for "chasing news." >> thank you, diana. let's bring in bob, who is our expert. what do you make about this? all of a sudden immediately on twitter, talking about possible road rage. all of a sudden the word terrorism crept into this language. are we deluding ourselves? is our government actually ready for things like this? this is scaring a lot of people that you could be killed on a bike path in manhattan. >> it's unfortunate because this could happen anywhere. whether it is on fifth avenue or any of our avenues or sites.

the barriers around the world trade center and historical sites in new york, unfortunately this is not only in new york city. it's really a problem all over the country. >> as a guy that has seen a lot of carnage in his career, what do you tell your own family. what do you say, places to avoid, things like that. >> we have talked about this every day. my son went to stuyvesant high school which is right there. so those kids cross that street every day. >> let's go back now. there are reports that the suspect, sayfullo saipov, was

screaming "allahu akbar!." they are reluctant to repeat that information. what are you hearing? >> nobody wants to get ahead of themselves, nobody wants anything that they don't have as a fact. people are not going to identify it specifically for what it is. they are going to let the police do their job. execute the search warrants, interview the family. quickly identify other people that may have co-conspirators out there and there's a lot of things that go into this. you have to give the politicians a break and you have to give the police a break when you have breaking stories like this. >> what about the surveillance? this was certainly contention is coming out of the 1993 world trade center bombing. is it appropriate at this time

knowing what we know? >> i don't think we ever really left it totally. i think we based it on probable cause, the information that we get from wiretaps and also social media. intelligence, surveillance, that is our number one preventative tool that we have. so that it is ongoing, there are officers assigned a terrorism, working with the fbi and the joint terrorism task force. intelligence and surveillance is part of their daily activities. >> it's always good to talk to you, we appreciate it. >> thank you, you two. >> check this out, wendy williams collapsing on air during a live halloween broadcast. what happened?

always play a part. >> there literally is nothing about any russian collusion. one could argue that this bolsters president trump. >> sometimes the first indictment comes and they want to have some leverage. >> let let me ask you in both virginia and the gubernatorial contest, there was an ad against this candidate basically having a nightmare, being chased down by republicans wanted to hurt children and the new jersey you had the sanctuary city situation. he had the opportunity to separate criminals from immigrants. >> why do you think that this is so front and center? >> the whole statement really was taken out of context.

>> if you were looking at this from a legal perspective and a guy said something like this, i thought it was pretty easy to lump it in and say he didn't pull out. >> sometimes i don't think you need to pull out. most of the time when people are talking about immigrants, they know that it can be twisted. >> why didn't the democratic nominee sages that? >> i don't know why, but i think that it really was taken out of context. i think it's undocumented immigrants here to make a living. >> we will know if it made the polls tighter in a few days. coming up on "chasing news." the battle in new york city. some strippers claiming that racism is part of the situation.
