aaron alexis was a deliveryman. >> unbelievable. this is my customer, they have known aaron for a long time. he's nice person. >> he says aaron alexis lived with him for three years. that was after aaron alexis had been kicked out of his own apartment for having shot a bullet into the unit above him. aaron alexis told police at the time it was an accident. he was never charged. aaron alexis carried a gun with him at all times, even while at work. >> if we tried to get something from the top, and the shirt lift up, i can see his gun. i told him, "you have to keep the gun in the car or the house, not here". >> other friends say aaron alexis had an obsession with violent video games. he left the house about five months ago when a job with a military contractor took him to japan. michael says that aaron alexis returned home upset, complaining the contractor was not paying him. >> he felt like they should have paid him when they took him to tokyo. it was - he loved to be able to travel. but when he came back he talked about how they didn

what have you learned about aaron alexis, heidi? >> reporter: we know he was closely tied to this restaurant behind me. it's called a happy bowl. it's a thai restaurant. and we are told that aaron lived with the owner for three years. he told us that alexis was his best friend. he said they bet at a buddhist temple not far from here. and at the time alexis had just been kicked out of his apartment. we also spoke with another friend of aaron alexis who told us he thought alexis was a happy and gentle person, though he thought a 34-year-old man shouldn't be playing violent video games, which he says alexis was a fan of. >> and heidi, just a quick question, i'm wondering if the authorities have been to visit that restaurant owner? >> indeed, tony. in fact four plane clothed investigators are inside the building as we speak. we got confirmation of that from the workers at this restaurant. and they are questioning the owner who had that very close relationship with alexis. in the interview that he gave us earlier, very revealing details

the individual in question, aaron, he had to get in there. and if you're not somebody who has an identification that provides you access, you can come in as a guest. but you have to be a guest of somebody. somebody there has to be expecting you. maybe that's this individual they're looking for. maybe he allowed him to come in not knowing this was his ultimate goal. maybe he's run and hidden. they're going to review video, entry logs and everything else to piece this together. i think we'll have some answers i would think, maybe by tomorrow. >> thank you very much. again, our evan perez reporting that the shooter aaron alexis came in this morning by car, then cleared using his navy contractor, i want to emphasize id with three weapons, including an ar-15, a rifle and a glock. of course the ar-15 used in some of the most recent horrific shootings in this country, including aurora and sandy hook. we are learning more about the shooter. out front spoke with his landlord, his friends, his co-workers. they're going to tell you about this man that y

aaron alexis, the sole suspect as described there. 13 people including alexis dead here. the epicenter was building 1 7, the headquarters of the sea systems command. as you recall alexis had access here. kathy lanier, the chief of the metropolitan police department here, we heard a lot from her it yesterday. they describes this harrowing scene, this shoot out that evidently went on for quite some time. >> i don't have the exact time before the final engagement, that will come much later after the for rennics are done but there was multiple engagements of the suspect with multiple different agencies before the final shots were fired. i'm saying that there is a pretty good period of time, so i can't give you the exact time. >> we know that aaron alexis is from th the washington area jusa short period of time. >> mike, do we know anything more about the weapons that aaron alexis had with him at the time of this attack? >> well, you heard, yes, you heard the fbi agent talk about the shotgun that he had, which was evidently legal, legitimately purchased at a gun shop in virgin

aaron wasn't conservative like i am. he was more of a liberal type. he wasn't happy with the former administration. he was more happy with this administration, as far as presidential administration. so we joked and we had comments with each other about that, but we always seemed to meet in the middle over those issues. but he had respect for me and he had respect for the people at the restaurant. he better have had respect more or less because he worked there and he showed that kind of respect, but he never showed any anger, you know, or dismay or unhappiness. he was happy over having a job. it was just slow pay for those people that hired him is what he told me several months ago on the phone when he called me. he needed money financially, his car was broke down, and that was the only thing i can think of that, you know, that he was having problems with in his life. i tried to get him on where i work. i worked at the treasury and he messed up his application, so he didn't get hired because he did the paperwork wrong. but i told him that if he kept on

let's go see if aaron's feeling better. ( aaron sighs ) aaron: whatever it is, i was here watching tvurse it is. the night of her murder, you showed up at the election party pretty upset. look at your records. i've had this conversation a hundred times already. let's make it a hundred and one. it was the turkey talking. bourbon. i'd been drinking all day. can you turn off the cooking show?

i've got aaron cullen joining us.rom what you heard, authorities say they quickly wanted to take this guy down because if they didn't, he would have kept shooting. looks like within an hour after they got there it was done but he had already done a great deal of damage. >> yeah. the response protocol, neil, for what they call an active shooter, which is what we saw or the chief was explaining, is they obviously have a joint or multiagency task force that is properly armed and equipped to be able to respond to that type of threat. they show up to the location and the goal of the active shooter team is to just chop seconds off the ability of the shooter to fire rounds. so essentially it's every second you waste, another innocent person could be killed. so great job with the response. the red flag for me, and the congresswoman -- when she was speaking to the media, said we don't want to pass judgment, but the truth is, you have to pass judgment when it comes to our nation's security, especially at a facility that is desi

who is this aaron alexis?e armed with that fire power and able to get to where he was, and why was he shooting? >> mayor gray said at the last press conference there was no known motive and also said, based on what he is being told by law enforcement, there is no reason to believe this was terrorism-related. even congresswoman el for holme said, will hold judgment. doesn't take a terrorist for this activity. >> she said we have not had a day like this since 9/11 and with good reason. she was very concerned that people withhold judgment on why this happened until we have real answers because she says this neighborhood has come back and it's revitalized and she doesn't want what people might think about this or the reasons behind the shooting, without the facts to sully in the neighborhood's reputation right now. >> absolutely. going back to that navy captain we just heard from, he said there were bullet holes in the ceilings, and when matt asked him, one of the reporters, have you comprehended the idea it could
