7:02 am
so anthony mason is with us. good morning. >> good morning, norah. >> it's nice to have you here. we're going to begin in washington where we have new information on the woman who rammed her car into the white house barrier and then took off. >> she was driving with her 1-year-old daughter in the back seat. bob orr is in washington. good morning. >> good morning, anthony and norah. sources tell us that the driver's license and registration found at the shooting scene has identified that of miriam carey. relatives and friends say she may have been battling depression but they still don't know what caused the shoot-out. the woman in the black coupe leading the police on a chase through capitol hill has now been identified by multiple sources as 34-year-old miriam carey, a licensed dental hygienist, seen here in a picture from her facebook page
7:03 am
which has since been taken down. police arrived in hazmat suits to search her apartment. mid afternoon thursday carey's car was surrounded by police on capitol hill. they tried to pin her car but she rammed a cruiser and sped away. numerous officers opened fire. >> i heard the gunshots and then the car tore out of the area, back, you know, toward this direction with the police car following it. >> the vehicle raced around the front of the capitol building and a short time later the car jumped the curb and came to a stop on the east side of the capitol. the driver was shot multiple times by secret service officers and police officers. she was later pronounced dead. her young daughter was in the car the entire chase and rescued unharmed. >> the child is approximately 1 years old and in good condition. she's in police custody.
7:04 am
>> sources say carey's car deliberate rely rammed into a police car and then gave chase. fbi agents were seen visiting the home of carey's mother in brooklyn, new york, hours after it happened. donald knowles was a friend who saw carey just a few days ago. >> she was all smiles like she didn't have a care in the world. >> now, the driver was not armed when she engaged police in downtown washington, but investigators say she was clearly using that vehicle as a weapon and the officers opened fire ending what they saw as a threat. >> all right. bob orr, thank you. our senior correspondent, john miller. good morning. >> good morning. >> do we know why? >> we don't know why. it's getting richer as the night goes on. but we know she was a 34-year-old dental hygienist. in april 2012 the people she
7:05 am
worked with said she was happy, normal and she had a fall on the stairs where she had a head injury. she had a recovery. interestingly it was in the fall at the hospital where she learn shed was pregnant. she got a handicap parking permit because of issues from that injury and then other doctors complain shed was tying up the space in front of the building, so they asked her to move her car back. this became a big dispute which actually led to her being fired and from then on police interviewing people in and around her life say she was suffering from other emotional issues that came to the attention of the police in stamford, connecticut. how we get from there to what happened yesterday is still a bit of a gap. >> and why do we -- why did police end up opening fire in this case, john? >> a couple of reasons. this is something going to be examine ed by the administratio
7:06 am
and capitol police and secret service. there were numerous shots fired, maybe 15, 20. most police agencies have a policy against opening fire on a moving car. it's inharmtly dangerous and usually ineffective, but this is an issue of context, which is when you're guarding the capitol or the white house and someone tries to deliberately ram the barricades and they seem to be trying to get close to the building, this is not your normal traffic stace, traffic violation, stolen car. what usually factors in is this a car bomb, a terrorist attack, is there a button under the dashboard, is there a weapon, and i think there was some high review. that was went over. >> washington's, of course, on a heightened state of alert all the time and there was just the navy yard shooting. how does this differ though? in most of these cases as 60 minutes reporting over the weekend, usually it's young
7:07 am
males who have a psychiatric problem. this is different. >> this is different but one of the things you learn from investigating these things and i've been in a couple of investigations, you struggle to put rational reasons behind them and when you find that people are irrational and you finally uncover from a note or conversation what their motive was, it's something that may have made sense to them, but not to us. >> john miller, thank you. another casualty of the partial government shutdown. the president is scrapping his trip to asia set for next week and this morning the administration is warning about the next showdown. the treasury secretary says the government will run out of money in two weeks if congress doesn't raise the borrowing limits. jam lieu jack lew writes in "usa today" we will not any goat yat over weather the united states pays its bills for past commitments.
7:08 am
>> bill planlt te is at the whi house. good morning. >> good morning, anthony and norah. no visible progress on ending the shutdown, but there is a promise from house speaker john boehner that he won't let the nation go into default. boehner is telling republicans that it's time to craft a bipartisan deal. the president continues to urge republicans to allow a vote on the spending limit that is not tied to health care. addressing a crowd in maryland, president obama told congress, just do your vote. >> take a vote and stop this farce and end the shutdown right now. >> but the president warns it could get much worse if the country's borrowing limit is not raised by mid october. >> as reckless as the shutdown is, as many people as are being hurt by the shutdown, an economic shutdown that results
7:09 am
from default would be dramatically worse. >> the administration is raising the stakes. treasure secretary jack lew says his department has run out of options. >> we don't have anymore. we just don't have anymore and congress has to act. >> in 2011 even the threat of a possible default wreaked havoc on the markets and led to standard & poor's's downgrading the u.s. on capitol hill hill they continued their piecemeal approach. members passed a bill to fund the national guard and the department of veterans affairs. democrats opposed the bit-by-bit funding. the republicans blame the president. >> the president's refusal to work in a bipartisan way has led to this shutdown. >> senate democrats say speaker boehner holds the key to the solution but he was urged to stand up to hitz tea party
7:10 am
members who reid called anarchists. >> i feel positive that john boehner, who's basically a nice guy, can't let this go on. he can't let this go on. he can't let his speakership be more important than the country. >> but if baner is ready as he has suggested to fellow republicans to talk about joining democrats without fault, then his position as speaker of the house could be at risk. anthony, norah? >> bill plante at the white house. thanks, bill. jill schlesinger is with us this morning. >> good morning. >> are they exaggerating when they say it could be catastrophic? >> i don't know. i figure let's not go there and test this. this is really uncharted borders. we go back to 2011. it was very devastating. the markets were down 17% after the debt ceiling crisis. the economy was damaged. and let's remind everyone what
7:11 am
happens here. on october 17th, we reach the debt ceiling. we probably get through the rest of october oklahoma. on november 1st, they're supposed to write a check to social security for $25 billion. november 15th we're supposed to make an interest payment on our bonds of $30 billion. without an increase to the debt ceiling, we cannot make those payments. >> what happens is the president has to prioritize himself. he has to make decisions about who gets paid. >> absolutely. we don't know if that means delaying the social security checks or the bond interest. i think the government would work very hard to make the bond interest payments. this is a destabilizing effect. remember what happens when the markets don't know what's going on? they freak out. while it could not be catastrophic, the emotional and psychological damage could be lasting. >> the dow dipped in two weeks.
7:12 am
the secretary warned teen prospect could be disruptive. aren't we already there? this is two weeks away. >> i will say that we're still up about 15%, 20% on the year so we've got pretty buoyant gains but interestingly enough we look at the national retail federation. they say, hey, it looks like things are going to be up by 3.9% from a year ago. but wait. big asterisk. it will shake consumer deps, people will get very worried, they won't spend as much. and you can see it has a long-lasting effect and could continue right through the end of the year. >> jill schlesinger, thank you so much. >> great to be here. later today the house is due to vote on a bill to pay for nutrition programs and disaster
7:13 am
relief. in our next half hour we'll ask nancy pelosi why the government opposes to resolve it piece by piece. that story is ahead in an interview only on "cbs this morning." some fema workers are being called back to work to prepare for tropical storm karen. it's expected to strengthen this weekend. hurricane consultant david bernard is tracking the storm. david, where is it headed? >> the good news is the storm is a little bit weaker but there's a chance it might get a touch stronger as we go through the next 24 hours. so we have a 60-mile-per-hour storm. it's about 60 miles to the west of northern louisiana. at that route it's going to approach the northern gulf coast saturday night and early sunday morning and rapidly weak and move across alabama and also into georgia. now, what's the chance for significant winds, meaning 58
7:14 am
miles per hour greater. i think the immediate threat of that is going to be right along the coastal areas. that's a medium threat right now and it all depends on how much karen strengthens as it approaches the coast. rainfall, a couple of inches. we could see as much as two 2 to 5 inches. the storm's going to move through pretty quickly. how about this for a change of seasons, guys. have a blizzard warning for the dakotas and wyoming. some places between now and saturday night and sunday morning could see up to 2 feet of snow. we're just a couple of weeks into fall. anthony and norah, back to you. >> incredible. david, thank you. police identified the man who they believe beat the driver. that comes as the driver's family tells its side of the story. terrell brown is with us. good morning. >> good morning to you. even though everyone involved in that attack was captured on high resolution helmet cam video,
7:15 am
police have had a hard time tracking them dow down but now the most sought after suspect may be in custody. >> reporter: the helmet wielding man who bashed in the window of the suv last sunday before yanking out the driver and beating him in front of his wife and young child. he could turn himself into authorities as early as today. they seized for a crackdown on the motorcycle gangs in the city. >> this is outrageous. we want this to stop. >> new video surfaced thursday. bikers can be seen running red lights, hopping wheelies and weaving in and out of traffic on the wrong side of the road. the confrontation up folded when one of the bikers deliberately appeared to slow down in front

7:30 am
and this year marks 20 years since the battle of mogadishu, known as "black hawk down." a u.s. force's mission was to capture a top warlord lieutenant and they were shot. the pivotal 17-hour battle left 18 american soldiers dead. some were dragged through the streets. more than 80 troops were wounded. four days later, president clinton issued an order to end the military mission in somalia. "60 minutes" lara logan traveled to mogadishu this summer and that's where the wreckage was recovered. >> reporter: norm hooten was a team lead owner the assault force that day. and in 20 years he's never spoken publicly about the battle because his unit is so secretive. even after all this time, we were asked not to use its name.
7:31 am
"60 minutes" was able to obtain this surveillance video of the battle, which has not been seen publicly until now. here you can see the very beginning of the mission. hooten was flown in on one of these little bird helicopters to the target building which was quickly enveloped in clouds of dust. >> how well did you and your men execute that main -- the main objective of the mission? >> it was flawless. from the time we set down to the time we called for the helicopters to come back and get us, i would say it was no more than five minutes and it was over. >> so you thought you were going back, it was done. >> yes. and the helicopters were on their way back to the target to pick us up up. we had everybody that we had been trying to get in one package, in one mission. >> reporter: then from this rooftop with his men under fire, hooten watched as the lead black hawk super 6-1 headed toward
7:32 am
him. >> and it took a direct hit to the tail and it started a rotation. >> how hard did it hit? >> it was super. >> reporter: spinning out of control before it's torn apart on impact. >> we geesht black hawk down! and lara logan is with us. good morning. >> hi. >> you know, when i first saw this video last night, it's so compelling remembering that, but we've never seen this before. >> no. very, very few images exist of this battle and nothing of it was seen publicly. you know, a frame released here and there. what's amazing about this operation is that 20 years later, it's still classified. so the units involved, we couldn't use their name even
7:33 am
though there was a book and movie involved. we still can't speak to some. >> why is that? >> because of the see correctcy of it. the special operations were flying those little birds and the helicopters in the sky and this was really the defining battle for that unit. people never looked to those pilots the same way again. they were literally like flying soldiers. they were flying with one hand and shooting with the other. it's largely because of them that those men on the ground were not overwhelmnd and slaught tered. >> you were in somalia for a week, a country that's split by a war and has assad running part of it. what is the state now? >> it is changing. it has a government now. he's been pushed out of the capitol. but at the same time everyone's
7:34 am
talking about it. yet at the same time, you know al shabaab have done that attack in kenya, but they haven't lost the fight. >> what's the lasting effect of black hawk down. president clinton four days later pulled troops out. what changed? >> everything. can you imagine today that there's a civil war somewhere and the u.s. goes rushing in, that the u.n. goes rushing in? right? after that event, no one wanted to get involved in other problems anymore. that's why the u.s. had to be dragged into kosovo and dragged into bosnia. on top of that just in terms of military tactics and strategy, that's the first time the u.s. faced battles in al qaeda. it was a warning really of what was to come. so one of the delta commanders
7:35 am
said to me, you know, many lives actually were saved because of that battle in the end because of what we learned about who we were fighting that day. now they know they were fighting al qaeda. at the time, you know, they didn't. for example, you know, no u.s. soldier will ever step out the door without night vision goggles and without water because that battle that was supposed to only last a few minutes lasted 17 1/2 hours. >> incredible reporting. lara logan, thank you so much. you can see lara's full report on sunday night on "60 minutes" here on cbs. pope francis visited the town of assisi and the tomb of his namesake, francis of assisi. pope francis is the first pope to name himself after the 13th century f centu centu centu century friar.
7:36 am
>> reporter: this is more than just a pilgrimage. this is a mission statement. an outdoor mass was the centerpiece of this visit. but for pope francis, it was a place to again stress how he's trying to remake the catholic church in the image of the man who made this italian hillside town famous. st. francis of acssisi rejected wecht to resume a pious life to assist the poor. already this week he has assembled an international panel of cardinals to begin the process of reforming the bloated and self-serving vatican bureaucracy. he said it doesn't need fixing. it needs to be built from the ground up. there are other signs of reform. the vatican bank, the center of
7:37 am
secrecy and corruption entered its first report. already he's begun to redefine the papacy, speaking often without notes and about real events, the tragedy of the cinching of a boat carrying hundreds of refugees off the italian coast last night was an example. the death toll is still rising and may reach more than 300. francis, who has been urging more international actions to help the migrants called the disaster a disgrace. today he blamed it on an uncaring world. pope francis has certainly changed the style of the papacy. now he appears to be moving on to the next stage of his agenda to change the very structure and in some cases the attitudes of the church. >> thank you, mark phillips.

hello to you, i'm gayle king along with norah o'donnell and anthony mason. charly ro charlie rose is on assignment. 34-year-old miriam carey rammed her car into a white house barrier yesterday and then she led secret service agents to the building going 80 miles an hour. >> they tried to shop her and eventually shot her to death. her 1-year-old daughter was in the back seat of the car. the girl was not hurt. >> the capitol police are working without pay right now because of a government shutdown. nancy pelosi is here this morning. she was on capitol hill yesterday as the chase happened. good morning. >> good morning. >> this was very scary yesterday when we first heard about these shots fired. you were inside the capitol.
8:02 am
were lawmakers worried that they might be under attack? >> well, the responsibility of the capitol police to protect the tourists, the visitors, the press, the members of congress is a large one and high-tension wires go up, of course, when shots are fired. i was on the floor. john lewis came in and said -- they made us all come inside because of what was going on. it wasn't until later that we learned what it was. it's very tragic, so sad. >> is it true the campus police are working without pay because of the government shutdown. >> >> yes. hopefully we can compensate them. but the capitol is open, people are coming, and we need to be protected. >> what do you say to people who say just work it out without going into the tit for tat that seems to be going on on both sides. what will it take, madam spea r
8:03 am
speaker, to resolve this issue? >> it will take some coming together on the republican side. it's very hard to negotiate with the republicans when they can't negotiate with themselves. >> but they're saying the same thing about you too. >> no, it isn't. we have four times brought to the floor their bill and voted 1 100% but they won't budge. let's take a deep breath on this serious matter. the government has shut down. our default on full faith and credit is at risk. so we have to find a path. so we have gone to the steps of the capitol and said to the speaker, we'll accept -- we don't like the bill. we agree with their republican chairman that it's not adequate to do the job we're supposed to do for the american people but we'll accept that in order go forward but they do not have within their own ranks -- >> a good friend said in any negotiation both sides have to
8:04 am
be willing to leave something on the table. >> that's right. that's why we said we'll leave the number on the table. frankly on the table i think we should take the subject of the full faith and credit. that shouldn't be a subject of debate. there are within the ranks other republican party and this is the bigger picture that the republican party has to deal with and has an impact on our country. if you don't believe in a government role, then it's easy for you to say in order to lift the debt ceiling we want to eliminate all epa rules for clean air, clean water, and the rest. i want to remind you yesterday was the fifth anniversary of the president signed the t.a.r.p. bill.
8:05 am
we didn't even like the bill he sent us, but it was essential for our economy and for our financial industry for our services industry for us to do that. the republicans abandoned their own president because they don't believe in a government role. we saved the day with 177 votes. we have to come to a conclusion. sandy aid. they say they have something going on there. >> i want to get to why you're here in new york. but very quickly, first, do you see a scenario where democrats would be willing to give on a larger budget deal and giving on entitlements so we can move forward? >> well, the president already has in the budget that he agreed to in 2011.
8:06 am
that is a happy scenario. we go to table saying if you want to talk about the solvency of social security, talk about that, and all the money saved should go back in the social security and the same thing for medicare. i'm here today and i'm excited about it. even though the government is shutdown we have to imagine ways how to make the future better. >> so you're here for women's economic -- tell us about that. >> when women succeed, america succeeds. it's about three simple things. equal pay, so pay equity. secondly, paid sick leave. earned paid sick leave. and third, child kafrm we think this would unleash the power of women, and men too. we're very excited about the
8:07 am
response we received all over the country. by the way, it will lift our gdp by two or three points if women are encountered. >> before we leave, you have five children and they've squabbled. what would you say to them if they behave. >> it don't agree with it. the pressure of the united states has gone forward. i think it's been lost. but if you say to the president we only will open government if you eliminate the affordable care act -- >> but at the same time the president is saying he won't negotiate. >> here's what he's saying. they can't say our first premise is you have to overturn the affordable care act. i think of yourself. >> i hear you so loud and clear,
8:08 am
but -- >> we can have this conversation. >> it really seems like white noise. they say something, they say something, and people are saying just work it out. >> agri agree that it seemed th way. what they're doing is really very, very harmful. having said that, let's find a path to get this done. the speaker has said hes to do something the bipartisan way. i asked him as recently as yesterday, can we sit down and talk about that. hopefully bewill bible to today. the president has been most open but he's not going to have the -- >> people can say you certainly know something about compromise. you just celebrated your 50th wedding anniversary. that means compromise. >> and happiness. >> and mr. pelosi. >> thank you. >> and thank you for being here.

8:21 am
but the family walked out of that inquest because no one even interviewed them about their side of the story. look, the todds say they were told by the detectives that their son had drilled bolts into the bathroom wall to create this suicide device. when they went over to the apartment, there were no holes, no bolts, no pulleys. and there were suicide notes on his computer clearly not written by shane but written in an asian voice. >> i'm so glad you're doing this. you can see pete 'eers full report. i've set my vcr -- odvr.
