inside an apartment. what would the conversation between the suspects and the special forces operations, what would that conversation sound like? well, it may not have started yet. i can tell you what it would sound like. what the commander is doing now is containing them. they are moving slowly because what they are trying to do is get them into the smallest space possible. they are in an apartment. they want to make sure that s the only place they are. there is no egress for the people in the apartment. the second thing is they want to know who is in there. is there an innocent? it changes the dynamic for the decisions of the on-scene commander if there are suspects or innocence involved. they will contain them. now, they will try to talk to them. they will also be watching with their rifleman and their scopes should they try to go to a

i just want that lesson to be learned going forward. in times of, like, terror like that, to please do something. don t just stand by and watch. alek skarlatas and spencer stone are in the military. skarlatos trained in the national guard as a rifleman. stone has extensive paramedic training and was trained to treat traumatic wounds. so that definitely came in useful in treating that gunshot victim, alex. when asked about the report that the suspect wasn t there to kill people, but just to rob the train, the men said, you don t need that much ammunition to rob a train. so clearly not a theory that carried much weight with them. alex, their whirlwind trip is not over. they re set to meet with the french president tomorrow morning. they re able to have terrific breakfast with him, you never know. anthony sadler in particular,
