Died, and they cant even begin to put a number on the damage done by an estimated 11 trillion gallons of water. Today as the sun came out and the water slowly began to recede, we heard Amazing Stories of survival. And David Begnaud is in south carolina. Reporter for angela cole, coming home was hard. Oh, god. I cant even breathe right now. Oh, my god. This is just. Reporter but she does appreciate that her family is alive. She snapped photos on her phone as the water was rising, and her family kept climbing higher trying to escape. Craig smith is her partner. And by that time, the refrigerator was floating in this direction. Reporter they dialed 911 but two hours later still no help. Did you think that you and your family were going to die . When i saw the water coming up, yeah. There was nowhere to go. Reporter cole decided post a plea for help on facebook. Smith feared help would not get there before his family drowned. From the attic looking down, angela took photos of the water rising and again she posted. These three men responded to the familys plea, john winges heard them screaming. The look on their faces, you cant imagine. They they i think they thought they were done for. I mean it was if we wouldnt have been there, 20 more minutes, i dont think they had that much time left. You guys are my guardian angels. Im telling you. Reporter today, angela and craig got a chance to thank those men for saving their lives. Thank you so much. Reporter its been two days since the family was saved, and you still need waders to walk through their front yard. The couples cars sit destroyed in the driveway. Scott, angela cole told me today, i tried to get a rental car, and then i realized, i cant even find my license. Pelley David Begnaud reporting for us this evening. David, thanks again. Today, no sign of 28 americans and five polish sailors from that cargo ship that broke up in hurricane joaquin. The el faro lost power and sank five days ago in the bermuda triangle. Her name means the lighthouse, and Mark Strassmann found that loved ones are still carrying the torch. Reporter coast guard searchers recovered more pieces of el faro today, but each passing hour makes them pessimistic about finding survivors. Everything inside of me says my daddys coming home. Reporter you believe that in your heart. I believe that in my heart. Reporter Carla Newkirks father is 62yearold larry davis. Hes one of el faros missing crew, an ablebodied seaman serving mostly as a lookout. Do you still have hope . I still have hope. I do. You know, hes always came home and had a story to tell, and everything in me just knows that he will come home and tell this story. This is a story i need for him to tell me now. Reporter jacksonvilles tightknit Maritime Community knows the city grew up around its port. 17 of el faros crew of 33 lived here. The community has questions investigators hope to answer, specifically, how and when the ship lost power and propulsion near the eye of a monster storm. And why michael davidson, its 53yearold captain, decided to try to beat the storm given the ominous forecast we reported last tuesday. Pelley now, joaquin is a tropical storm. Is it going to be a hurricane . Where is it going to go . That looks pretty likely at this point. Reporter rod sullivan, a former merchant marine is now a maritime lawyer. After he was already on his route, he could have turned back or he could have cut through the windward passage, any number of ways that would have taken him further south and out of the path of the storm. Reporter Carla Newkirk doesnt blame the captain. We all make judgment calls every day. Reporter so no bitterness about that . None at all. I know he knew what he was facing and that he had no doubt in his mind that his captain of that vessel made the right call. Reporter but experience seamen weve talked to acknowledge that the captain of a ship without power in a major hurricane has few options. Scott, a tote maritime, el faros owners have, now hired their own team of investigators. Pelley Mark Strassmann on the case for us tonight. Mark, thank you. Today, defense secretary ash carter demanded talks with moscow to keep u. S. And russian warplanes from colliding or shooting each other over syria. The russians are mostly bombing rebels in the west, who are fighting the assad dictatorship. Holly williams reports the skies are crowded. Reporter five days into its air campaign in syria, russia said its fighter jets targeted several isis positions today, but once again, some of the locations russia says it hit are not in areas controlled by isis. The u. S. Says what moscow is really doing is propping up the Syrian Regime by attacking its opponents, including some groups linked to al qaeda, but also moderate rebels who are supported by america. As david martin reported last night, syrian airspace is increasingly crowded with both the u. S. And russia launching air strikes in syria, but backing different sides in the countrys civil war. Neighboring turkey a nato member and a key u. S. Ally accused russian warplanes of violating its airspace twice on the weekend, and today, turkey said eight of its f16 fighter jets were harassed by an unidentified mig29, a soviet era fighter aircraft. Nato chief Jen Stoltenberg called on russia to avoid escalating tensions. For us, this doesnt look as an accident. This is a serious violation of the airspace. Reporter as russia seems to reassert itself as a superpower, its behavior is angering the u. S. And its allies. The nato chief also said today that russias substantial buildup of forces in syria includes ground troops. But, scott, a senior official in moscow said that Russian Ground troops will not carry out operations inside syria. Pelley but as always, hard to take them at their word. Holly williams reporting from istanbul tonight. Holly, thanks. Half of all syrians, 11 million, have been forced from their homes, and many of them are driving the largest refugee crisis in europe since world war ii. A german newspaper reports that the government there expects as many as 1. 5 million refugees, nearly double the previous estimate. Charlie dagata is in berlin tonight. Reporter their long walk may be over, but their long wait has just begun. Each day, hundreds of migrants line up outside the Main Registration Center in berlin to apply for asylum. Theyre assigned a number and then wait to be called. Some have waited for weeks. We watched while frustration gave way to anger and anger to fist fights among the men in the crowd. Police finally stepped in after one man was knocked unconscious. The center can only process a few dozen applications a day, but thousands more migrants are still arriving. It took lubna and her family from damascus a month to make it to germany. We are waiting now for 18 days. Reporter 18 days. Yes. Some people, my friend, 30 days. Reporter whats your number . Bn2. Reporter youve memorized it. Of course and i give it all my friend. So, please, everybody, watch my number, also. Reporter inside, migrants face a series of questions where theyre from, whether their lives were truly in danger, and what proof they have. Germany has made clear that migrants fleeing poverty instead of war will not be allowed to stay. Alan smiche from bosnia was told to pack up his family and leave. No germany, bosnia. Yeah, go. Reporter the crisis leaves germany with several problems what to do next with the hundreds of thousands who qualify for asylum and how to deport the hundreds of thousands who dont. Successful applicants are provided with food and housing and some help finding a job. Those who are rejected are ordered to leave the country, and, scott, a Police Spokesman told us those who refuse are arrested, taken to the airport, and sent home. Pelley Charlie Dagata reporting from berlin for us tonight, charlie, thanks. Today, the american commander in afghanistan told congress that his forces are responsible for the airstrike this weekend that hit a hospital, killing 22 civilians. General John Campbell said the attack was directed by u. S. Troops on the ground after Afghan Forces called for help. He called it a mistake, and he ordered all u. S. Personnel retrained on rules of engagement. Campbell also said today that president obama should reconsider his plan to reduce u. S. Troop strength to 1,000 next year. Campbell said its just not enough to train and support the afghans. Now, have a look at this. Like a funeral shroud, a tarp now covers the building where nine were shot to death last week at Umpqua Community college in oregon. The first of the funerals will be thursday. The president will meet with relatives of the victims on friday. In milwaukee, two victims of gun violence are fighting back in a courtroom. And adriana diaz has that. I have still a lot of bullet fragments, or shrapnel. Reporter officer Bryan Norberg testified today against the milwaukee store that sold the gun that nearly killed him. Right now it is every day. Reporter in 2009, norberg and his partner Graham Kunisch stopped 18yearold Julius Burton for riding his bike on a city sidewalk. After a brief struggle, burton shot norberg in the mouth. Kunisch was hit in the eye. Six years later, norberg says the memories of the shooting still torment him. I felt like i didnt deserve to live anymore. I felt like my duty on that street that day, that i that i let our i let the city down. Reporter both officers claim the weapon was negligently and unlawfully sold by badger guns. According to the charging document, in 2005, 537 guns recovered from crimes were traced back to badger, which ranked as the number one crime gun dealer in america. The jury saw Surveillance Video of the purchase. Burton entered the shop with an older friend who he paid to buy the gun because burton was under age. Donald flora made the sale. The last thing we want to do is put a gun in somebodys hands that has thats going to commit a crime. Reporter attorney james vogts defended the store. Who is responsible when a criminal pulls a gun from his pocket, and at pointblank range, fires at a Police Officer with the intent to kill him . Reporter on the stand yesterday, norberg said he once even considered suicide, but a friend, also an officer, talked him out of it. That friend is now his wife. She probably until now doesnt know that she saved my life. Reporter cases like this one rarely go to trial. Scott, thats because in 2005, congress strengthened protections for gun stores against civil lawsuits. Pelley and we want to note the shooter in that case got 80 years in prison.

Pelle pelley its not safe to drink the water in flint, michigan, a city of nearly 100,000 northwest of detroit. A plan to save money backfired, and heres dean reynolds. Reporter the people of flint lined up for free filters to make their water safer to drink. Can i get three of them . Reporter Dorothy Bates was one of them. Its not good enough to drink at all, not even to take a bath in because my tub, you should see it, its brown. Reporter last year, flint disconnected its water supply through detroit and began drawing water from the flint river instead. The move saved the city about 15 million in annual fees but the river water, even after treatment was risky. Thats because the very chemicals used to decontaminate the water were so corrosive they peeled lead off centuries old pipes and sent it straight to faucets in a foulsmelling, discolored brew. Last month, researchers found elevated lead levels in children, in some cases two to three times what it was before the switch to the river water. The county last week declared a Public Health emergency. It is one of the most damning things that you could do to a childs life course trajectory. Reporter dr. Mona Hanna Attisha is a pediatrician at the hurley medical center. Is there any safe level of lead in somebodys blood . There is no safe level of lead. What are you doing, bud .

Good evening, im veronica de la cruz. Im ken bastida. California is leveling the Playing Field on paychecks. The governor signed the fair pay act. The inequities that have plagued our state and have burdened women for forever are slowly being resolved with this kind of bill. Brandnew law prevents employers from paying women less than male colleagues for performing essentially the same job. But, and this is important, it is up to women to know how to make this law work. New at 6 00 we asked our julie watts to help spell out the new rights in this new law. Julie. Reporter meet kristie allbright a 30something Marketing Manager in the tech field and according to data from the u. S. Bureau of labor statistics she makes 67. 7 cents for every dollar her male counterparts make. But salary and equality like that might be about to change.

As of today, she can now demand comparable pay to her male counterparts even if they work out of a Different Office or city and a different title as long as the work is substantially similar. But maybe more importantly, she now has a right to ask how much her counterparts make. The law prohibits employer retaliation for discussing salaries
