let's go to nbc's ron allen who is joining me with more at where he is and on his condition. ood morning. what are you hearing? >> good morning, alex. this is the same hospital where his brother was pronounced dead on friday morning. he is said to be in serious condition as far as we know. the hospital is not releasing much information about his condition, because it's such a sensitive matter, they're deferring all questions to the fbi. perhaps we will learn more later. we understand, however, that he suffered a tremendous amount of loss of blood. and that he was pretty much incoherent when he was captured. although he was conscious, and certainly alive. and to some extent we have no idea how cooperative he was or was not, and we don't know when in the process he was wounded. remember he was on the run for the better part of about 20 hours or so. and we have no idea what help he may have gotten along the way, if any. so his medical condition is really a big mystery at this point. as soon as he is able to, you can bet that authorities will be questioning him and talking to him
