this is not a knock on the city of waukesha. they would not expect this thing would happen in a town like, that everyone was overjoyed that christmas parade got to come back this year. after it was canceled last year by covid. but these crimes have a way of changing the way we live. and i'm guessing that next year, at christmas parade there will be a whole lot more security. and a lot more beefing up of the pathways that lead to the christmas parade route. you know nobody wants to see a horrific tragedy like this take place again. trey: waukesha is a lot more like my hometown of spartanburg, we have plastic barricades and volunteers directing the cars, there is no defense in my hometown for someone who. we're learning against tonight's car is a deadly weapon, if the officers fired to stop the car, that is why. it say deadly weapon, they fired their weapons to tray try to save others. jon: we hear that in video. police officer standing guard duty. making sure cars don't go through the barricade. jon: trey, stand by we'll continue

we also have that video on the parade route from waukesha, the wha waukesha city live streaming it and you saw the car going by this marching band, going fast as you can see not actually hitting anyone in this screen grab that we have from the feed. what do you make now after this information that we just heard from this press conference and piece together with the videos and so forth? >> i feel that the police officer whoever he or she is tried to do their best in this incident. it's usually not best practice to shoot at a moving vehicle but when you've got a huge truck moving towards citizens you don't just stand there so the officer did what he or she thought was the right thing and also the detectives really would be focused now on the detectives being sure that they put together a tight case for whoever this person of interest is, be sure that the prosecutors are involved very early on with this process even, you know, there, right there with the officers while they conduct this interrogation of this person of interest. but this is something where the citizens of the city and law

this is actually a feed from the city of waukesha.re putting the parade video on a live city camera of some kind, and we just saw that red car go speeding, a ford escape, as jeff was just telling us, a red ford escape just went flying down the middle of the parade route, and apparently crashed into a number of either parade participants or parade goers. again, this is happening right now in waukesha, wisconsin. we don't know anything about the reason for it. was it a drunk driver? was it some kind of terrorism? we don't know. but you can see there in the video feed from the city of waukesha, the red suv goes flying up the street, and perhaps we can -- there it goes. that's the one image we have of the red ford escape. as the parade is still very much underway, and you can see -- you see the police officer running after the suv. you see some of the other parade floats, the jeep is still continuing on with the parade. obviously a whole lot of, you know, stunned people and people not really sure what was going on. let's get back to jeff

it is an awful situation and waukesha wisconsin.ontrol room put up the shot of the car is the first time i seen it on our air but it is the still shot of the car backed into a driveway. apparently the suspect vehicle. there it is. the bumper is hanging off basically the license plate is facing the ground and the crumpled herd and grill it has been backed into the driveway. that is all kinds of odd whether it has any relationship to the suspect or the person of interest or even the car, we don't know. maybe the driver found it a handy place to put it at almost looks like what you can see a bullet hole in the glass that is consistent with the shots we know one of those at the car because it check out one of their rear windows we don't know we will flag at but it is one of the many oddities of the terrible night then they are open to the news conference with a request for prayer. >> prey is a celebration for our community today it was a community celebration. i am deeply saddened to know that somebody in our community went to a parade

what is happening in waukesha. what are the important details officials will be looking for in particular? >> i'm sure what they are trying to figure out is any known subjects or individuals, a lot of the data will be out there as frank just said. there is a lot of camera footage, we've seen a lot online. there are license plates, things out in the open tochlt get their hands around what they do know versus what they can't figure out at this point. they'll be very cautious in these press conferences and part of the reason is oftentimes law enforcement is trained to schedule press conferences at a set interval. they also want to get facts correct when they walk out to the podium. this is extremely dynamic. the other big point is if they do need something as frank was referencing if they are looking for someone or something they want to get that information out in the press conference as soon as possible. so that the public can assist or they can put away any conspiracy or rumors that might be untrue. the white house

scott, as i was mentioning earlier, a resident of waukesha. can you tell us what did you see and hearing now? >> yes. thank you for having me. i am a resident of waukesha? been here the majority of my life. we were at the parade just like everyone going to see what we can and just enjoying the holiday spirit and had a great day with family and looking forward to seeing what we can enjoy the parade. we usually go every year and excited this year because it was canceled last year. we were sitting at what's known as the five points which is the center of the downtown. five different streets converge upon one and we were sitting there watching the parade. everything was going great. but i noticed and heard a couple police vehicles behind us. going through an intersection probably two blocks behind us and just wasn't sure what was going on and took notice because it was very loud over the parade. and a few minutes after that, a red suv which i'm sure you have seen by now. came barrels down the street very, very high rate of speed and hit a pedestri

this is from the live stream from waukesha. live streaming the parade and if we can just pull that up, guys. you can see the red suv go by the parade goers as you can see here on the screen. you can see the suv go by the parade goers, they are untouched and go out of frame and so it makes you wonder presumably the incident happened after this otherwise you would see people running but also, did it then narrow from multiple lanes as you see here to a situation where, you know, the car really had nowhere to go? help us understand the parade route a little better if you could. >> you know, it's just -- it's an old school main street parade, you know, it starts -- it's reveerse direction from th annual fourth of july parade. it's not a long parade. our parades usually don't go more than half hour, 45 minutes and it's -- we have a very historic downtown. there is neat architecture. i joke around it would be a great set for a movie. it's real old school main street and wonderful shopping and bars and it's went up in recent years, too
