chris cuomo, many thanks to you.ant to actually take our viewers now to capitol hill where the house appropriations committee is meeting on a transportation measure that could actually lead to millions of dollars in funding cuts for amtrak. you got to wonder if that will change now. athena jones, you have been monitoring this hearing. what are they saying? >> reporter: good morning, carol. the hearing is just under way. you have the division we have seen in the past. amtrak funding has been a perennial issue. the hearing was started by offering condolences to victims and saying it will take a while before we know what happened but we also already heard from a democrat on the committee saying that the funding for amtrak is woefully inadequate. this is the divide we've seen. you have members in northeast corridor often democrats, who want to see investments in amtrak and you have republicans often from states that don't have a lot of rail lines who want to see less funding and maybe even privatization as you've been di

i want to get to cnn's chris cuomo also out in the crowd. are you witnessing any similar situation where you're standing? >> reporter: yeah, we're actually behind them. and the commissioner is literally on the left and he's calling the shots from back here and he's been telling his officers be easy be easy. they grabbed this man with -- >> stand by we're going to brian. >> you apprehended that man? why was he arrested? >> reporter: they apprehended him -- he was walking slowly and they came up behind him and they invepped him and took him the back there and apprehended them. as they were pushing us forward, so he has been basically been evaporated into the that wall of police and been taken away. >> and you're looking at that on the right hand side of your screen, we have that man being taken into custody. continue, brian. >> reporter: i'm not sure exactly what -- i'm sorry, don, i don't know where the man is. there was a rush of police that went to your left my left i don't know where they took him over here. i don't believe they did. oh th

and chris cuomo is at the scene. ng, chris. >> reporter: this is still a very active investigation going on. in fact it's in its early stages because the urgency has not passed. we have not heard from authorities that all 243 people are accounted for yet, and we know at last count six people lost their lives and 140 people have been spent to the hospital and some are still there, and the big headline is not everybody has been accounted for, and that's going to slow the investigation, because right now they are still bringing in heavy equipment behind us to move some of the cars and see what is underneath them and see what is still among a lot of the twisted wreckage here. many of the people working the scene overnight, and at least some of them said to us they have never seen anything like this carol. it's going to take time in the investigation, and information is going to be slow. >> i would assume the engineer and the conductor survived the crash and i would assume investigators are talking with them? >> reporter:
