Hours east of paris. Our Senior International correspondent Nic Robertson is following the story for us. Tell us more nic. This appears to be a situation where france if you will has literally dodged a bullet. Police were responding to a call that someone had been injured. When they arrived, they thought they were witnessing the french president said they were witnessing a victim but they realize he was under investigation. The french Prime Minister said this man had been under investigation last year and this year by the police and when they came across this man, they also with him found a vehicle, they say, weapons of war, which they describe as pistols, flak jackets, communications equipment, computer equipment as well and from all of the material they found in the vehicle, it was very clear he was about to attack two churches and also that he planned to try to go to syria as well. The french believe that they have narrowly averted over the weekend on sunday this attack against the churches. They also say the Prime Minister says its because theyre on a heightened state of alert and heightened vigilance that police were able to quickly realize what was happening and thwart this attack. So the main target of this mans attack two churches . Can you tell us more about that . The police havent identified the churches. He was picked up in the southwest of paris on sunday. Around about the same time a french woman a 32yearold french woman was shot and killed. She was in paris apparently for what the police are describing as professional training. Shes a lady who had a 5yearold daughter and why this man killed her, thats still under investigation. All right. Nic robertson, well let you get back to it. Thanks so much. In other news this morning, outrage, anger and growing demand for answers on the streets of baltimore. This is what it looked like on tuesday. Hundreds of demonstrators rallying to protest the death of freddie gray. The 25 year old suffered a fatal spinal cord injury after being taken into police custody. The department of justice now opening a criminal investigation. The Six Police Officers involved in that struggle now identified and suspended with pay. Cnns Suzanne Malveaux is in baltimore with more for you. Good morning, suzanne. Reporter good morning, carol. At that protest last night and it was just incredible the level of emotion and height of emotion from the family members, the mother of freddie gray collapsing in grief. The brother who was scream inging and chanting with the crowd. The family members and people in that community will gather here at city hall tomorrow. They are so incredibly frustrated they dont have answers. Were talking about ten days after freddie gray was apprehended by police and three days after he died. Very little information. Ive been in touch with the legal team of the family. Theyve been in close contact with family members who really have not had the strength to talk that much in public about what they are feeling and experiencing and one of the frustrating things one, they havent received the preliminary autopsy report which they would like as soon as possible and the second thing and this is something that they said they were told they would be receiving yesterday that they did not receive and that is the body of freddie gray so that they can start making burial arrangements. I spoke with billy murphy the family attorney. This is how he describes how he says the family what they are coping with and dealing with now in light of the fact that they have so little. Theyre grieving. This has been so catastrophic and so sudden. Can you imagine how his mother feels that hes no longer here . Can you imagine how that Community Feels that yet again theres somebody victimized who didnt deserve it . Its been traumatic for them. In addition to being in grief, they are outraged. Outraged that the police did it to them this time after theyve seen it done to others so many other times. Reporter whats happening today is there are three things. The Law Enforcement officers bill of rights essentially prohibits a supervisor from interviewing those Police Officers involved in the arrest of freddie gray for ten days. That expires today. Its potential now for the police to directly talk to those who were involved in the arrest of freddie gray to get more information. The second thing thats happening is at 5 00, its expected there will be another protest outside of the Western District police station. Thats where we were yesterday. And third, we have been told by someone inside of the Mayors Office that they are organizing working on potential of a press conference sometime in the afternoon to put the mayor again before cameras to take some of those questions, those tough questions to see if she has anymore details to give the public as well as the family. Carol . All right. Suzanne malveaux reporting live from baltimore this morning. Thank you. The death of freddie gray just one in a string of recent cases highlighting racial tensions and police violence. In just a few hours, democratic congressman and ranking minority member on the House Judiciary Committee john conyers will introduce legislation to put an end to racial profiling. Thank you for joining me sir. A pleasure. A pleasure for me too. Can you explain whats in your legislation . Well what we are trying to do here is for the first time federally criminalize racial profiling. We mandate retraining of officers and rebegin datewe begin Data Collection on racial profiling by police for the first time and then we collect data and we give grants for good Police Practices. Thats essentially what the bill is about. Do you think what happened in baltimore, sir, was the result of racial profiling . I suspect that it probably was. I ask you that difficult question because the neighborhood was largely africanamerican. It has a crime problem. And some people say isnt it possible even if mr. Gray were white that this could have happened. You know were getting back to the message all lives matter. Whats happened in predominantly africanamerican communities is that Police Practices and racial profiling has become a thing thats been going on for decades now. And so i started introducing a bill to prevent racial profiling back in 2001 and had been introducing it in congress ever since. Now with these eight lives that have been taken, weve got a new look at it a new approach a new attorney general, and so things are moving far more rapidly than in the past. Let me ask you the question this way. The Justice Department you know it investigated several of these cases, right . It ruled out civil Rights Violations in two controversial cases. For example, in february of 2015 the Justice Department said it would not file civil rights charges against George Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin case. In the Michael Brown case, federal authorities declined to prosecute officer darren wilson. Would your bill do anything to make it easier for the Justice Department to file civil rights charges in such cases . Well i think that by making this a federal crime, it changes the approach quite a bit. The bill wasnt aimed to do that specifically or exclusively. What we wanted to do was get a broad prohibition that makes it a criminal matter of where racial profiling occurs. Its a federal crime and that we think, will be very helpful in reduceing the number of incidents that occur. There is another problem that some say we have. For example, we have no idea how many suspects are actually killed by police because theyre not required to keep those numbers. Should lawmakers deal with that issue, too . We do in the bill. We have a Data Collection requirement and that will take care of that problem. Youre right. It is a big concern if we dont know what the numbers are that were dealing with on this matter. Congressman john conyers, thank you so much for joining me this morning. I appreciate it. A pleasure ms. Costello. Still to come im sorry. Lets go to paris, france where a press conference is being held by french prosecutors in this terrorism charge against the suspect who apparently targeted two churches in paris. Lets listen. Translator traces of blood and the presence of bags. After these assessments and in fear of the attitude and suspicious behavior of the individual he refused to have his vehicle searched. The police decided to search the vehicle where it was discovered a cache of guns loaded and three cartridges a revolver. 9 millimeter fully loaded three mobile telephones a laptop a usb key, and handwritten documents which contained information on personal targets and information in the terrorist division of the paris prosecution was led to arrest people with regards to categories a and b of terrorist attempt. Its a new breach of the new law in 2014, which applies to individual crimes committed. The investigation was given to the paris Legal Division and director general of the interior minister. The individual was detained in the context of this inquiry and a search was carried out at his home which allowed the discovery at his home of three guns a charger, fireproof vests, police arm bands, a camera a hard disk 2,000 euros in cash as well as sim cards, documents in arabic mentioning al qaeda and i. S. The operations carried out on computerized information at his home allowed to establish that this individual with another person who was in syria with whom he exchanged information with a view to committing an attack and latter asking him to target a church. This target was confirmed by the handwritten documents in the car. All of these elements seemed a target was a church and also involving a third party. It was concluded there was preparation of one or more crimes and a criminal offense by criminals with a view to preparing crimes. Examination of personal computer to reconstitute the movements that the individual when he was arrested allowed one to assert his presence on the 19th of april. At the time when the woman was assassinated in her vehicle seated on the passenger seat of the car consulting her laptop. There have been searches on the victim and it was seen again at 8 40 going in the wrong direction, a journey which corresponds that one takes when one comes back to the residence concerned. The inquiry by the prosecution after the assassination allowed to assert that she was killed by one bullet and not three. Blood was found on the drivers seat of the car. They had not moved the body of the victim and i remind you was seated on the passenger seat. Similarly, a 9 millimeter gun was found on the passenger side. We quickly discovered that the same inscriptions were to be found well jump out of this news conference. You hear these prosecutors in paris, france describing how they stopped this terror suspects from targeting two churches but the suspect also managed to murder one woman who just happened to be sitting in her car near one of the targeted churches. Prosecutors also say they found an arsenal of weapons and references to al qaeda and isis on this mans person or among his belongings. Well have much more on this and what went down in paris and how authorities were able to stop this man when we get it here on cnn. Still to come in the newsroom, a u. S.

Less than one full day after saudi arabia announced an end to its monthlong air strikes there it unleashes a new attack on rebel fighters in yemen. It comes within the hours of drone strikes on militants there. Attacks on land are mirrored by a showdown at sea with iran. U. S. And coalition ships want to prevent tehran from delivering weapons to those rebels who already toppled the u. S. Backed government. President obama concedes that this is a strong message that washington is sending to iran. When it comes to the seas we are obviously the dominant force and were coordinating closely with all of our allies in the region sending a message that rather than another conflict in the region we need to settle this down. Iran is also speaking with extraordinary bluntness. Lets head to frederik pleitgen. New air strikes are not well received in tehran. This apparently happened at a base that the rebels were trying to take there and air strikes were called in and that attack was then repelled. However, of course all of this is causing further tensions in the relations between the u. S. And iran. At the same time you have the Nuclear Negotiations going on which right now are going into the really decisive phase where they are trying to hammer out technicalityies for that nuclear agreement. Theres an incredible amount of distrust toward the United States here in iran. I was able to speak to the commander of irans Ground Forces. A man who normally never speaks to international television. This is what he had to say about what the iranians think of the u. S. Translator at the moment we consider the United States to be a threat to us because its policies and actions are threatening to us. We would like the u. S. To change its rhetoric and tone of voice so our nation has more trust in u. S. Military leadership. Reporter so there you have it. They still consider the u. S. To be a threat and of course right now with that standoff going on there on the high seas there with the iranian ships, iranians say never wanted to try to bring weapons into yemen. All the ships there are carrying out antipiracy missions. The u. S. Upped its presence and its not going down well here in iran in this diplomatically very, very decisive time. Frederik pleitgen reporting from inside iran this morning. Thanks so much. Lets talk more about this with cnn Global Affairs analyst and former Delta Force CommanderLieutenant General james reese. Lets tackle what the official from iran said. He said he considers the United States to be a threat to iran. Just talk . Should we be concerned . Both sides have been a threat to both sides for years. Lets call a spade a spade here. Iran has been an enemy of the United States and we have been an enemy of iran for years ever since the overthrow and capture of americans at the u. S. Embassy in tehran. Its a lot of rhetoric going on. The thing that i find very interesting is these are cargo ships that are being brought down from iran but cargo ships really dont do a lot of antipiracy work. So i think thats kind of an interesting spin on cargo ships coming up going down to do antipiracy work. So its necessary for the u. S. Warships to be there in other words and you dont believe iran when it says hey, were not delivering arms to the houthi rebels. Well i think from my experience in the past both sides dont have a lot of trust. I think if iran wants to provide support, nonlethal support, whether its humanitarian they should have no problems to allow the saudis to inspect those. Were moving that Carrier Group into the region and that gives us options. It doesnt give us but saudis options and different courses of action because of our premiere sea power that the u. S. Brings to our coalition. Okay. So lets talk about how saudi arabia is conducting itself at the moment. So yesterday it says were going to stop the air strikes and were going to begin a new operation called the operation of renewal of hope. And then saudi officials said we want a political resolution to this crisis and next day they launch air strikes again. Whats going on here . You know the bottom line is they really wanted to get the president back into power, the official guy that was elected to go in. That hasnt happened yet. And they met some of their requirements of dest
