as far as the other person charged, george tanios, that was a little easier match and someone identified him on a facebook image. but there was something circled in red and according to the charges, they believe that was the chemical irritant. you see the black kind of handle there on screen, that's what they believe was the top of the canister. he allegedly told on an open-source video, a video just posted publicly, he told tanis, give me that bear expletive, resume reference to the bear spray. >> can we talk unfortunately about the cause of death? we've been talking for weeks sicknick was hit with a fire extinguishers but these are assault charges connected to this bear spray. what do you make of that? >> yes, steph, i'm so glad you brought up the earlier reporting about him being struck by a fire extinguisher. having handled murder cases for decades in d.c., i really ners what's going on here with the delay and ruling of the cause and manner of deathbrian sicknick. if he was struck, the blunt force injuries could have contributed to the cause of death. but now we know the two individu
