cnn's shimon prokupecz is there for us. shimon, the president was asked if he was concerned, at all, that his visit to kenosha could increase tension and violence there. his response was, quote, it could also increase enthusiasm. so what's that about, shimon? >> yeah. i've talked to people here. i've talked to several people, in this town, here, in kenosha. that's not the response that they certainly have. you know, i spent some time, yesterday, talking to people. i even went to a gas station. the convenience store. the gas station. that was looted. and the owner, there, i spoke to him. and he said he did not want the president coming here. there's a lot of concern about the rhetoric. there is concern that it's going to spark some violence, quite frankly. that this is a city that has, now, seen days of peace, quiet, people getting along. there's a lot of unity, right now, in this city. and the biggest concern from them is that, to have the president come here, is just going to turn that all around. and they really do not wa

hello to both of you, and shimon, welcome back.o we have an understanding you have some new video of the shooting tonight. i'm going to play it for the audience and then you'll tell us what happened. here it is. >> shot. shot. gunshots! they're shooting guns. real guns. [ bleep ]. they're blasting at the police. >> shimon, walk us through what happened. what are we seeing? >> reporter: yeah, so, we were following along with these groups of protesters as they were marching, and there was fireworks and police were coming in to probably block them off and kind of they were trying to square them in. they were trying to surround them. and as the protesters were continuing to march, to walk, there was fireworks, and then we heard gunshots, and that's where you could see some of the people were running. and then within minutes, even more police moved in, heavily armed police moved in. they were pointing weapons at people, asking to see their hands. but in that video, what you're seeing is people just running from the scene, from the sound

shimon, what do you know?> reporter: this is the area, we believe, anderson where that officer was shot. we were walking with that group when we heard the gunshot fired. this happened behind here. we don't know much more than what the police have already put out, which is that this one officer was shot and that's about all the details we have at this point. this is something obviously that many of the officers here in the city has feared, there would be some protests would turn violent and certainly, if this officer as the police are saying was shot, this is definitely going to be an escalation here and we'll see how police respond. what they are doing is trying to block off all of the intersections here and trying to keep people away. a lot of the protesters have left and so right now it's just police and they're obviously investigating the shooting. >> and no details have been given. is the protest continuing? obviously, that area is roped off. >> reporter: that's right. this area is roped off. there is stil

shimon, tell us what the city is doing to prepare again. for five-plus months have we not known if, you know, there will be any charges brought against these three officers, and we'll know more today? >> reporter: we could know more today. it's certainly expected this week. the city officials, the police department, community members all are anticipating some kind of announcement from the attorney general here this week. that's why as you can see behind me the police overnight decided, without really giving any notice, that they were going to close some of the streets, some of the access roadways into the courthouse and other government buildings here in downtown louisville. i walked around here this morning and almost virtually every business, every restaurant, every store is boarded up, and they continue to board up a lot of the area here in anticipation of this announcement, and it has been five months. of course, the added pressure from celebrities, from politicians, from community members has finally at least brought action in this inv

israel's prime minister rabin examined the documents cold of a foreign minister shimon peres and also refused to sign one. for a while it seemed as if the entire ceremony was about to collapse. because we had not been a part of that channel we didn't fully appreciate what the gaps were between the 2 sides israel saw this as a devolution of power. as a policy is prove themselves house and saw that says we have to show this is a new day and there's a new day we have to have all the trappings of statehood even if we don't have a formal yet so immediately they want to you know they didn't want controls over across he wants they want to they want to be they say you know the israelis are out of our lives. would have been thought of but you know they both haitians is says that. this is normal or they would be i was in the road with their homes and. they want to see yes. so i would go to them and so it was again and said no they would quote and so it's. probably true i was on the stage with you but. this son of a bitch. after a brief interval the p.l.o. leader was assured that the saudis of t

cnn's shimon prokupecz is on the ground in louisville. shimon, update us on what's happening there.a little? >> reporter: yeah. they've calmed down significantly, jake. as you can see, there are just officers standing behind me in full riot gear. they've pushed us further off the corner. we were down in the middle of the block, and now they've pushed most of us over to this area. things are much quieter certainly than they were just a few minutes ago. if you can see, i don't know if you can see we were blocked by this car here, but police were making several arrests. they were trying to load several of the people of the protesters that they arrested into a van there. and now people have just been standing around. police were able to move most of the protesters away. some went up some of the side streets here. but we still don't know why police decided to move in on the protesters here. we've been reporting following them along for well over an hour. and we don't know why police decided to block off the area here and to prevent them from walking and marching further. and that is when

shimon prokupecz is "outfront" from louisville. shimon, as obviously here we are. you' you have a curfew. you've got dusk coming. what's the latest. >> reporter: i want to take you to the scene behind me. we were walking with these marchers. they were coming to this area. i'm going to step out of the camera here because they found what appears to be militia members who were parking here, staying at a hotel parking lot. and there was a confrontation between the protesters and these members. they don't appear to be law enforcement. but they are wearing, as you can see, military fatigues. they have long guns. all of them are carrying these long guns. they're wearing bullet proof vests. the protesters were coming here to confront them, and when they got here, they became -- they got into a confrontation. obviously we've been standing back because of the volatile situation here and out of concern for our safety. but things have now, as you can see, they're now leaving. the protesters are leaving. some of the people who were standing here behind this fence were telling t

foreign minister shimon peres and also refused to sign. for a while it seemed as if the entire ceremony was about to collapse. because we had not been a part of that channel we didn't fully appreciate what the gaps were between the 2 sides israel saw this as a devolution of power as a power seems prove themselves how soon saw this says we have to show this is a new day and as a new day we have to have all the trappings of state even if we don't have a formal yet so immediately they want to you know they didn't want controls over across the ones they wanted they wanted immediately to say you know the israelis are out of our lives. without in 2005 of the number of a bush nations is says that. he says no no no. i was. with barak they want to be serious. so i would go to them and says no they would quit and to stop it. mubarak said publicly was on the stage and. the son of a bitch. after a brief interval the p.l.o. leader was assured that the size of the jericho region was still under negotiation he signed the document and a few comments. fina

let's get details from our shimon prokupecz who's on the scene for us. shimon, what do we know?ss? >> reporter: well, she spent an hour talking to the family, and as you said, jacob blake, as well. he was on the phone and they talked about how proud they were of one another, of each other. jacob blake telling her, telling the senator how proud he is of her, and she told him how proud she is of him for enduring the pain that he's under now. this, as for the first time, we have heard from jacob blake, from the hospital, releasing a short clip, talking about the pain that he has been feeling. but he also wanted to send a message, wolf. take a listen. >> every 24 hours is pain. it's pain. it hurts to breathe, it hurts to sleep. it hurts to move from side to side, it hurts to eat. please, i'm telling, change our lives out there. we can stick together, make some money, make everything easier for our people out here, man. because there's so much time that has been wasted. >> and wolf, senator harris had a similar message today to the family. she told the family to use their pain to hel

shimon prokupecz is live for us again in louisville, kentucky. good morning, shimon. the a.g.on initially resisted these calls because grand juries, i mean, for people who don't know, they are all in secrecy. you never usually get recordings or transcripts or anything, but now the public is going to get it. why? >> reporter: yeah. an unprecedented step. a grand juror has filed a motion saying that the attorney general mischaracterized their work. mischaracterized exactly the evidence that they were looking at and so as a result of that, the grand juror coming forward yesterday, the attorney general issued a statement, and here's what he said. he said that the grand jury is meant to be a secretive body. it's apparent that the public interest in this case isn't going to allow that to happen. as the special prosecutor has an ethical obligation not to release the recordings from the grand jury proceedings, and we stand by our belief that such a release could compromise the ongoing federal investigation and could have unintended consequences such as poisoning the jury pool. and as

foreign minister shimon peres and also refused to sign. for a while it seemed as if the entire ceremony was about to collapse. because we had not been a part of that channel we didn't fully appreciate what the gaps were between the 2 sides israel saw this as a devolution of power as a power seems prove themselves. and saw this as we have to show this is a new day and as a new day we have to have all the trappings of statehood even if we don't have a formal yet so immediately they want to you know they didn't want controls over across he wants they wanted they wanted to be say you know the israelis are out of our lives. would have been without father if you know the negotiations says and. he says no no no. i was. they want to just. so i would go to them and says no they would quote me and to stop it. mubarak said it probably. the son of a bitch. after a brief interval the p.l.o. leader was assured that the signs of the jericho region was still under negotiation he signed the document and did a few comments finally with the briefest of answe

shimon, you've been covering the protests throughout the day. there is a curfew now set for 9:00 p.m. this evening. describe what you're seeing and hearing. i sense things have been very, very tense the past few hours. >> reporter: it has been tense. and the tension has been building, wolf, remember, for days. we have been expecting this announcement probably since last week. there were a lot of rumors that this was coming any day. the police put in all sorts of precautions in place. they've closed the streets down. a lot of the protesters who after the decision came down, they knew exactly what this meant. and they were angry. they were angry that no one was going to be held responsible, at least in the indictment for the death of breonna taylor. and so they took to the streets. they marched, they protested. and we were marching for about an hour and a half till we got to this location, this scene. and for whatever reason, it's still unclear, the police decided they were going to block them off and prevent the protesters from marching any longe

elections the next prime minister is binyamin netanyahu he received 50.4 percent of the little while shimon peres received only $49.00 and a half percent it's. little. it's like someone building a bridge and building and building and building something that could have really changed. the middle east and to. make these comes one seen the hundreds and it was a waste. i felt so bad. when it all collapsed because i hailed it already and i felt we can do it we can do it and then. it it went wrong and i know it's not in my lifetime probably not in my kids lifetime maybe the grandchildren. us. should. shoot. shoot. shoot. their comrades. lavery supporters. friends. the state of israel is embarking on a new path under shah i. well i need to talk to folks already. get a belated. let. and. one to. get a belated many of the honest man. well i did a little thing to the not alone in the i'm larry . bland the far to late to get to. the charmin. well you get the war. going to fight isn't luminaire. fun the good and the. well. putin or. the end. of an optimist. is to believe there's a chance for peace betw

all great questions, shimon, thank you. listen in now to joe biden. >> that area goes right through my city. and i used to interview clients down in the basement of that train station before they were arraigned. and here i was, thinking that -- and we have the eighth largest black population and we were, to our great shame, a slave state although we were one of those border states who fought on the side of the north, thank god. but anyway, to make a long story short, what happened was i thought black and whites would never be in my city talking to each other again. and here i was then, literally, 40 years later to the month, on january 17th, standing on a platformat that very same train station and looking out over what we call the east side, which had been burned to the ground, literally. it had been completely leveled. when things get burnt out they come in and level everything. overwhelmingly 100% african-american community and i was standing on that platform january 17th, waiting for a black man to come 26 miles from ph

>> shimon prokupecz on ground. continue to watch developments throughout the day including the vice president's conversations. thanks so much. president trump you might recall compared the shooting to jacob blake to a golfer missing a clutch putt saying perhaps the officer got nervous and in the president's words choked. democrat biden says the officers in kenosha and in another shooting in kentucky should face charges. >> last week your running mate senator harris said that the officer who shot jacob blake based on had a she has seen should be charged. do you agree with her, and do you also believe the same for the officers who were involved in the death of breonna taylor? >> i think we should let the judicial system work its way. i do think there's a minimum need to be charged, the officers, and as well as breonna taylor. >> joining me now is wisconsin state representative david bowen. representative bowen, good to sigh again. last time we talked you were battling covid. i hope you're doing well. >> doing excelle

also shimon prokupecz here.esterday on cnn the attorney general bill barr to our colleague wolf blitzer, he made somements about the jacob blake case that seemed to attached judgments to ongoing investigations. >> reporter: not only judgments, but the attorney's office is running a parallel investigation to civil rights violation, already out there making judgments saying jacob blake was armed, saying that the police were there to arrest him on a felony, that all of this, you can argue, these are key turns when investigators look whether or not there's justification for a police officer shooting an individual. terms like armed. terms like he was in the middle of committing a felony. those kinds of key terms signals that authorities certainly at the department of justice are thinking that this was a justified shooting, and the problem with that is that this investigation is still very much ongoing at the local level. as to the armed situation, that probably relates to the knife obviously because the investigators

cnn's shimon prokupecz is live in louisville. shim shimon, what's happening at this hour?an see behind me, signs already that police here are preparing for this announcement from the attorney general, who has been presenting the case before a grand jury here. the police, as you said, are operating under a state of emergency, closing streets. this is downtown here in louisville, right by the courthouse. stores around us have also boarded up, all across downtown louisville. of course, everyone is hoping for whatever the outcome is, that there are peaceful gatherings, peaceful protests, but the city here not taking any chances. the police here not taking any chances. as you see, they've started to close streets off. they've also canceled days off for officers across louisville. they want to make sure they have enough officers on the street, as the decision comes in, which could be any day now, where it is expected, as early as this week. the attorney general will announce it. the family will get some notification from the attorney general, and then the attorney general will r

shimon, you know the doj building very well there. have already been resignations under the attorney general, some morale issues under the attorney general. i suspect calling your career prosecutors essentially pre-schoolers not going to sit very well. >> yeah, and these are career prosecutors who in some cases, you know, what he's referring to here in the end is the entire mueller investigation, and he's doing everything he can, and since he's taken office to discredit the mueller investigation and discounting many of the junior prosecutors and attacking the prosecutors who served on the mueller team, specifically at the roger stone investigation, and that trial and his feelings towards them because they spoke out. they resigned in protest over the fact that they felt bill barr was interfering in the sentencing of roger stone, so he -- here he is attacking them this. other prosecutors who are basically saying that they have no place to speak out if they see anything wrong, if they feel anything wrong is happening. these are lawyers.

cnn's shimon prokupecz is live in louisville, kentucky, with more. why did he do that, shimon?, this all comes after an unprecedented step by a grand jury, someone who was actually in the grand jury, was one of the 12 jurors who were hearing evidence in this case. late yesterday, filed a motion with the court, this person -- we don't know who the person is. they filed a motion to put pressure on the attorney general to release this information, because they say that the attorney general mischaracterized their work. and in response to that, the attorney general issued this statement. he said that the grand jury is meant to be a secretive body. it's apparent that the public interest in this case isn't going to allow that to happen. as the special prosecutor, our team has an ethical fwlaobligat not to release the recording from the grand jury proceedings. and we stand by our belief that such a belief could compromise the grand jury investigation and could have unintended consequences such as poisoning the jury pool. so clearly now they are taking a different position. they are goi

shimon, thank you to you and your crew. joining me is sedrick alexander, he's a law enforcement officer for 40 years and the president of the national organization for black law enforcement executives. and also, civil rights attorney, charles coleman. gentlemen, thank you for jumping on with me. sedrick, what's your reaction to what we have learned from the attorney general and the grand jury? >> well, i think the reactions are very evident, in terms of what you're seeing is taking place on the streets of louisville at this very moment. a lot of people are very angry and very sad, that the outcome is not what they certainly had hoped for. the issue here for me, the bigger issue, frankly, is that there has been a loss of trust in law enforcement. as you can see, people are feeling that way about it at the federal level and at the state level in this case and at the local level, as well. it becomes an issue around legitima legitimacy, who can people trust if they feel that their issues are not being addressed. the law is the

i want to start with shimon prokupecz life "outfront" in louisville. shimon, we showed pictures of what's happening moments ago with the altercation with riot, protests and police. what are you seeing and hearing now? >> reporter: yeah, erin, we are here at jefferson square park. you can see behind me several hundred protesters have gathered. they're trying to decide whether or not they're going to march. they gave indications they are going to march. as i've seen through the night here, police here are moving in quickly when they feel things are escalating. this, as tension remains high here. outrage in the streets after a controversial grand jury decision in the police killing of 26-year-old breonna taylor in march. three louisville officers were involved in a gun battle with taylor's boyfriend where she was shot multiple times, and only one was indicted. >> the fatal shot was fired by detective cosgrove. >> detective myles cosgrove not indicted. >> sergeant mattingly was the first and only officer to enter the residence. >> sergeant john mattingly n

shimon prokupecz is there. shimon, you can tell us about these flash bangs.ell us what's happening. >> reporter: yeah, so the protesters were marching along main street. as they approach this intersection here, police lined up preventing protesters from going any further. there was that confrontation. some of the protesters were looking to turn around, to turn away. then officers came from this direction. that is when the officers from no -- i couldn't tell as to why they started firing those flash bangs. you could hear several of them going off. they were firing them in the air. most of the protesters then ran in the other direction. eventually everyone left. police made a few arrests. again, it's important to note here that the protesters were marching peacefully here, here along the street. many of the residents here were standing on their balconies supporting them. for now they have all dispersed and the police have left as well. erin. >> all right, the beginning of friday night in louisville. i want to go to jason carol who's also there. jason, you were

shimon. >> reporter: yeah, john. so, after days of pleadings from local officials for him not to come ear, president trump is still heading here later today to survey the damage and meet with law enforcement, this after joe biden is slamming the president's rhetoric, asking americans if they feel safe in trump's america. this morning, president trump is moving forward with plans to travel to kenosha, wisconsin, despite calls from local officials to reconsider his trip. >> i am disappointed that he is coming. the president is always welcome, but at this time, it's just the wrong time. right now is a time for us to heal and to be able to look inward and deal with the issues that we have to deal with. >> reporter: the white house says trump will survey damage and speak with law enforcement officials, dismissing criticism that his appearance could cause even more tension in the city. >> it could also increase enthusiasm, and it could increase love and respect for our country. >> reporter: unrest in some american cities l

foreign minister shimon peres and also refused to sign. for a while it seemed as if the entire ceremony was about to collapse. because we had not been a part of that channel we didn't fully appreciate what the gaps were between the 2 sides israel saw this as a devolution of power as a power seems prove themselves i'll say and saw this says we have to show this is a new day and there's a new day we have to have all the trappings of statehood even if we don't have a formal yet so immediately they want to you know they didn't want controls over across it once they wanted they wanted immediately to say you know the israelis are out of our lives. with her in 2005 but they know that negotiations is says that. he says no no no. i was. they want to be serious. so i would go to them and says no they would quit and to stop it. mubarak said publicly was on the stage and. the son of a bitch. after a brief interval the p.l.o. leader was assured that the size of the jericho region was still under negotiation he signed the document and added a few commen

let's go to the ground in louisville with shimon prokupecz, what do you know of the shooting? >> reporter: one of the officers had been shot. it happened behind me here that's why police here closed off the road. we were follow ing protesters when we heard fireworks and moments later we can hear the gunshots and people running. the entire episode have been captured by the police department on their live stream and facebook page. here is what it sounded like at that moment. >> shots fired? >> gun? >> an officer down. >> right there. officer down. >> streets of america in the year 2020. shimon, listen, obviously that does not help us understand anything other than the general context of there is chaos going on under there. we'll have to find out see if the video shows who may have been involved or what else may happen. stay safe and keep the team safe as soon as you tell me to, other than that, be safe. >> reporter: thank you. >>> we have a president whose only concerns is his own political benefit. why do i say it? do you hear him? have you heard him? the midst of what happens

our shimon prokupecz is on the ground in louisville. it that the ag needs a week delay for before these come out, do you know? >> yeah. so here's the thing, poppy. this was set to be released in an hour. they had a noon deadline today that was set by the court to release this. we are just now getting word that the attorney general is asking for a delay. the delay, the motion to delay this came yesterday. why we are just learning about this today is somewhat puzzling and you know, you have to question whether or not this is some kind of stalling tactic. they knew since monday that they were going to have to release this information. they claim in their filing to the court that they need to protect personal information of private citizens, that they have over 20 hours of recordings from the grand jury, a grand jury presentation that took over two days. so today they say while they filed this motion last night and they confirmed for us, today the attorney general does, that they need more time. they want a week so that they can redact info

cnn crime and justice correspondent, shimon prokupecz, has details for us from kenosha, wisconsin. >> we got our first look at jacob blake, since the shooting. since video of him being shot, in the back, by police. this was during a court appearance from his previous, domestic incident case. he appeared from his hospital bed, dressed in a shirt and tie. it was a short briefing that was held before a judge, here, in kenosha county. that case was adjourned, and he is due back in court in september. this is all, as we await more information from investigators here. state investigators are still looking into the shooting and the circumstances surrounding the decision. the state investigators have up to 30 days to reach their conclusions. and then, those findings are given to the district attorney, who will ultimately decide if any of the officers will face charges. shimon prokupecz, cnn, kenosha, wisconsin. >> and in rochester, new york, on friday, another face off between protestors and police. this, after video was released this week showing the arrest there, in march, of daniel prude.

cnn crime and justice correspondent shimon prokupecz is there for us.alf an hour from now. set the scene for us. what is happening there tonight? >> reporter: ana, in 30 minutes is when the curfew here ends. it's a different situation here tonight. i just want to show you around as i step out of the camera. we have much larger crowd here tonight gathering here at jefferson square park. they're telling people to stay in the park and warning them if they stay in the park and encouraging them to stay in the park, they're going to face confrontation with the police. this is the first night we've had a situation like this here. usually, the protesters will leave the park and head to a local church set up as a sanctuary but for tonight, they're vowing to stay. they say they're going to occupy the park to set up a perimeter that would then almost certainly lead to confrontation with police as we approach the curfew hour which is at 9:00. so the police now, 30 minutes, as you said, away from the curf curfew, they're vowing to stay. the police reminding them tha
