it's a hate crime or any other federal criminal behavior you would have the fbi investigate as well as atf know the motive. it's a place of worship. you wonder if it's religious an mouse. or a family dispute. we don't know yet. you want to have the federal an ex sus in particular a place of worship. that's what you heard from governor cuomo today. whatever the persons motivation is whoever he maybe, the very fact it was a rabbis home. hanukkah. that leads to a strong suspicion that is a hate crime related to a federal crime. >> as we have been reporting all evening a terrifying 24 hours of violence and bloodshed with the attacks. one jewish targeting jewish people. another attacking christians. we have been talking about texas. you mention new york. a man with a knife barged into a rabbis home stabbing five people. lt house was filled with people celebrating hanukkah. new york senator schumer is calling on the fbi too investigate the stabbing and whether it has links to the a i antisemitic attacks in new york. what could they provide? >> they can provide obviously additional resoirss in te

we know several agencies are involved, local law enforcement, the atf, the fbi. they know he was a transient person with roots to this community, but he did not necessarily live here. he's had multiple arrests, different run-ins with law enforcement but not on any known watch lists. >> the quick reaction of the armed members of the congregation you see on the tape, remarkable. thanks very much. >>> now for more on what we're learning about the attack in new york, where five people were stabbed during a hanukkah celebration in a rabbi's home, cnn's brita brin gingras is in new york. they're still trying to determine a motive here. is that in question? what else do we know? >> there's still a lot of questions about the motive, specifically why did the attacker choose this house? he lives about 40 minutes away from here, so why he came here is still uncertain. what we know is that saturday night was supposed to be a night of reflection, of celebration. there were about 100 people gathered inside that house on saturday lighting the menorah for the seventh night of ha

the team, which is led both by the federal side, the fbi, atf and others, u.s.y, and by our attorney general are doing an outstanding job under extremely difficult circumstances. unspeakable tragedy, hatred directed at the jewish community against law enforcement, against jersey city. four extraordinary lives lost. i'm completely confident they will turn over every stone. and i want to echo something. jon greenblat was on a moment ago and i heard him say something we believe strongly, and that is social media is sort of the gasoline on the fire, and it's allowing some of these extraordinarily extreme, hateful posts, videos, rants to become mainstream. we have to nip that in the bud both at the state level, but more importantly, federally, and we are all in on that. >> how would you do that, though? i think many people would agree that social media is very much a problem here, but what do you do in a society where we really want free speech? >> yeah. so you've got to get the balance right, but i think as jonathan said and i completely endorse it, you can say toug

that is in addition to the many, many resources that has been provided by the atf and ncis, hsi, fdlind numerous state and local agencies. today, we are here narrowly focused on conductling additional interviews of the witnesses, base personnel and the shooter's friends, classmates and other associates. our main goal right now is to confirm whether he acted alone or was he a part of a larger network. we currently assess that there is one gunman who perpetrated this at a tack, and no arrests have been made in this case. there are reports that the fbi is looking for or unable to find certain individuals, but i can report that the fbi is working side by side with the u.s. navy and they have confirmed to us that they have 100% accountability on all international students from nas pensacola. this is a large investigation and we have not completed every interview. we will continue to set up many more interviews over the next coming days, but this is not indicative of any danger to this community. this is an active and ongoing investigation, and we are seeking those facts and in order to do
