nypd officer that hero cop who stopped the attacker, identified by a new york city councilman as ryan nash. he shot saipov in the stomach after seeing him wave a paintball gun and pellet gun. what is the latest on the reporting about how saipov got into the united states here? >> reporter: in 2010 he came into the united states through a visa lottery program. that's how it has been described to us, so that was in 2010. he comes into the united states through that program. and basically as i understand it, it's a program where you are put in to get a visa into the united states. and if you're one of the people, the lucky people selected, you have the opportunity to come into the u.s. on a visa and go from there. so that is just the very basics of it. and he's an uzbek national as we said yesterday. >> i want to bring people up to speed on the fact that investigators have now talked to this guy at the hospital. there's that conversation. then there's the note that was found in his truck. fill us in. >> reporter: there was a note in the truck that essentially says, you know, isis is forever,

another hero, ryan nash, that officer.uty, was responding to a different call at a high school, unrelated, when he heard about what was going on. he came out and he shot the suspect. incidentally, it was anthony who then later identified the suspect in the ambulance. police brought him over to say is this the guy you saw and he confirmed that it was. meantime i want to show you what's going on out here at the scene right now. you can see the van is -- or the truck is still back there. a car in front of it now. but you can see those crime scene investigators in white. they are still now processing the scene here. remember that this suspect is still alive and so presumably there is going to be a criminal prosecution here, and so this is very much still a crime scene. a lot of investigation still going on today, craig. those investigators trying to figure out exactly what happened, and then also as you mentioned, looking for some type of motivation and how exactly it got to this point. >> kristen dahlgren for us there in trib

ryan nash stopped that man in his path and now the investigation continues. gentlemen, thank you as always. i appreciate it. we're waiting to hear from president trump himself on camera for the first time since the terror attack in his hometown of new york city. he's going to hold a cabinet meeting at the white house just moments from now. we are told he will address this attack, and we'll bring that to you as soon as it happens. >>> thank you. the man who alleged mowed down people on a crowded bike path is talking to investigators as new york city deals with the deadly attack the suspect says was inspired by isis. >> there is no grand statement to what was done. it was the act of a

that's when they say ryan nash of the nypd brought this all to a close by firing his service weapon and striking the suspect in his abdomen. what's unusual is we have a suspect who was alive and can talk. so, that may lead us to a lot more clues about finally how long he's been planning this, whether there was a larger plot involved. he apparently at the hospital has expressed some sort of pride in this horror. the one thing i noted this morning, it's not lost on people who lived in the city and 9/11, we're in the shadows of the new tower. we all remember, of course, how horrific the scene was down here in lower manhattan 16 years ago and here we go again. the nice thing is, as we started this hour, to hear the sound of children playing on the playground. new yorkers have done what officials said -- >> they're getting after it, too. they're having a high time on that playground and seeing so much new yorkers doing what new yorkers do. the most resilient in the world, bee bopping along here in lower manhattan. thank you for that. christiane wagner, who was walking in the downtown area of

specifically, officer ryan nash, five year veteran of the nypd was among the first to respond to the scene. and fired the shot that stopped the attacker from continuing the violence. he's ha hero. but that doesn't come as a surprise to most of his colleagues. already received two awards during his young career. one for excellent police duty and another for other police action. yesterday he earned something that could never be properly displayed by a ribbon or a metal. he earned the never ending thanks of a grateful nation. the president has vowed to defend our country, protect our communities and put the safety of americans first. this is the oath he took as president and that is his sacred pledge to the citizens of our country. with that, i'll take your questions. john? >> sarah, in the hours and in fact days after the horrific shooting in las vegas, president said now is not the time to talk about policy and politics. that is for another time. we have to mourn the death. yet this morning he got into a political argument with chuck schumer on twitter literally hours after the incide

he's being widely hail as a hero, his name is ryan nash, 29 years old. we heard from some of his superiors in the news conference a few hours ago, that he and his partner were out on patrol yesterday at the nearby high school and got a call. they responded and did what police officers are trained to do. they react d quickly and sprang into action and shot the suspect in the abdomen. most have said had it not been for those actions, the death toll certainly would have been higher. as for the investigation, we also started to learn a little bit more about the time line during that news conference a few hours ago as well. officials surmising at this point that roughly 2:06 yesterday, the suspect rented that truck that pete mentioned from home depot in new jersey. after that he got off the george washington bridge into manhattan. it took him about 37 minutes with traffic. and then 3:04, he enters the bike lane not far from where i'm standing right now at the west and houston streets and going according to eyewitnesses, perhaps 70 miles per hour, four minutes

family and friends for their support and all the responding officers who assisted me. >> officer ryan nash, one of new york's finest. >>> i want to bring in our security experts, former fbi and cia senior official, phil mudd, also former fbi supervisory special agent, ali soufan, also nada bakos, the former cia analyst and the newest cnn national security analyst. ali, you were on the fbi joint terrorism task force. just in terms of the investigation, where it's at now, what are they facing in terms of what's ahead? >> i think they are trying to figure out if he is connected to others, either in the united states or outside. they are trying to probably figure out if this attack is inspired by isis. it seems it's inspired by isis. or maybe directed by isis or people who are connected to the organization -- >> either overseas or domestically? >> yeah, absolutely. i mean, first of all, the very first red flag will be the fact that he's an uzbek, and recently we've been seeing a lot of uzbeks joining the so-called islamic state, more than 1,500 joined in iraq and syria -- joined isis in iraq a

officials crediting officer ryan nash with jumping into action, shooting and wounding saipov. >> i feel that we were just doing our job, like thousands of officers do every day. >> federal officials say saipov made a full confession from his hospital bed, saying he was proud of what he had done. >> this is the biggest threat we face right now in this country is individuals while in the united states have become radicalized. >> saipov has been charged with terrorism, accused of executing the deadliest terror attack here in new york city since 9/11. maggie rulli, abc news, new york. >> the fbi sent this alert out today asking for any information about this man wanted in relation to the new york attack. they have since tracked him down, but the agency is still having if anyone has any information about him to please come forward. the president sent out another tweet tonight about the attack, writing the united states will be immediately implementing much tougher extreme vetting procedures. the safety of our citizens comes first. >>> we're learning more about the eight people who died in th
