We can tell you, the young iranian identified was trying to get to germany where his mother lived. A Law Enforcement official tells cnn that authorities have looked at the two men and so far, nothing of concern has turned up on them. Investigators now say a 19yearold Iranian National was one of two men traveling on flight 370 with a stolen transport. Pouria Nour Mohammad mehrdad was on his way to seek asylum. While the International Man hunt to identify the two men with stolen passports has been intent, authorities said today the teen does not appear to have terrorism ties. Questions still remain about the identity of the second man who traveled with the young iranian on the doomed flight. They have been pouring through Surveillance Video to search for possible includes. Police telling cnn that the man contacted the agency on march 1st looking to buy cheap tickets to europe on two men for different different flights. That expired. So he booked them for flight 370. Two days later, the plane vanished. They could be garden variety criminals, drug traffickers, people smugglers or fraud sters. Officials say no one else on flight 370 use add fake or stolen passport. We wont know for sure until the wreckage is found. The search now for flight 370 and the 239 people on board, ten nations involved looking overnight. A pilot reported seeing large solid debris in the ocean during a flight from hong kong to kuala lumpur. But at this hour, there is not a single confirmed sighting of that missing jet liner. Just imagine the wait for loved ones. The emotions in that room. Families demanding the airline do more. Jim clancey, tell me what you know. You know, i know that Malaysian Airlines Officials Say we must find this plane. All of the malaysians repeat that. They know that this mystery cannot be unravelled unless they locate just where this jet liner is now. Take a look. This morning, search and rescue teams are expanding their scope looking beyond Malaysian Airlines flight path. As the search enters its fourth day these are the areas were going to search. Officials are including the strait of malacca. Radar data leading some to believe the flight may have reversed course to return to malaysia in its final moments. Also saying pilots from hong kong spotted large, solid debris in the waters off vietnam. We have not received any confirmation or verification of the debris that theyre from the aircraft or not. U. S. Intelligence sources telling cnn they are less inclined to think that the disappearance had a terror link. The sources say the two men who boarded the flight with foreign passports were more likely trying to gain illegal entry into europe. Families of missing passengers demanding answers from Malaysian Airlines being flown to malaysia. They have quashed numerous leads that all proved unrelated to flight 370. But he says the search will go on. Were not discouraged. It must be there somewhere. We have to find it. Many are turning to prayer to deal with their grief. 239 people from 14 different nations. You know, were holding out hope. Because as of yet, there are no answers to any of this. There are no answers and families have been warned to brace for the worst. Their faith, their hope, their prayers may be more important than ever. Chris . Thank you. New includes, new ed ends, but we still dont know what happened. Lets bring in the former Inspector General of the department of transportation ma mary ska voe. This is one plane big, but small in relation to the area. Yes. The battery life is about 30 days, right . Thats approximate, about 30 days. The reported information will still be there. They will use anything they can to try to locate the boxes. But this isnt unusual. There have been many crashes in the past where its taken many days to find the debris field. And then terrorism not the biggest concern in terms of what most like happened. Whats the first most likely scenario . The first is the ntsb in threefourths of the cases find something wrong in how the pilots flew the flight. They always say youve got to watch your air speeds, your throttles and artificial horzens and youve got to coordinate. Between this, the pilot in command and the first officer, they have to watch. On air france 447, they did not watch their airspeed and that caused the plane to stal. Does that make pilot error less likely, the auto pilot . It can. But if you hit any troubling weather, that can cause your airspeed to fluctuate. All right. So that takes us youre talking with mechanical problems with the plane itself. What are the importapossibiliti . Theyre looking at includes as to something that might have gone wrong. We know that this wing on the right side, it had damage in 2012. Theyre going to be looking at the tail. Obviously American Airlines 587 had a loss of a tail, although that was an airbus. There were reports four days ago that there were cracks. And they also look at the joinings, how the plane was joined together. Then there was a directive for the fuel tank wiring. What does that mean, directive . Is that like a recall notice . Pretty much so. It has the effect of a federal regulation. You must go out and inspect this. This specific plane or this model plane . This model plane. Then you get to explosive decompression. Does this help with the scenario that were dealing with of no message from the cockpit . Yes, when you have an explosive decompression, of course the pilots have occasion general masks, but you have to do it very quickly. At that point, that means youve lost the Structural Integrity of the plane. That can be from losing a structural member of the plane. You could also lose a door. There was a warning after the asiana crash in San Francisco to check the door pins and the fasteners for the emergency slides. Things can just the plane just comes apart in that. Two other points. I hear people saying, well, it had to be something big, but isnt that actually a little untrue that a small problem can become a big problem very quickly at that altitude . Right. In any accident, its always is series of things. In tw 800 it was the wiring in the fuel tank. What happens is Little Things unravel. Like in air france, they were losing their airspeed, they werent paying attention and they had a stall and literally fell out of the sky. A small wiring problem can cause an arcing and an explosion. The big thing is why we didnt hear anything from the pilots. Thank you so much helping us get a better picture of this situation. Brooke . That visual is so helpful. The ousted president of ukraine is speaking out this morning. Yanukovych says he remains the president and any replacement is illegitimate. All of this as the u. S. And european allies are taking steps to isolate russia. We have more this morning from crimea. Diana, good morning. Reporter well, we have just been hearing from the ousted president speaking in the south of russia saying as you said that hes still a legitimate leader, hes still the head of the armed forces and that the others are backed by ultra nash lists and fascists. He asked the question to the west saying, do you not remember what this is. He said that the u. S. Was illegally sponsoring a coup if they provided money to the government in kiev. Also this meeting between john kerry and president putin has been put on hold. It would have been the highest level talks since the only occupation began. President yanukovych also saying the elections on the 25th of may in ukraine would be illegal. Here in six days time we have a referendum coming up. Apparently thats illegal too say the west, but its going to happen anyway. Thank you so much for that. 6 13 in the east. Lets take a look at more of your headlines.

They plan to spend it on new school construction. So big revenue stream there. And some of the money goes to help make sure kids stay away from pot. Part of the program is to try to prevent abuse and getting it out of under aged kids hands. Maybe counter intuitive. Is that anything scientific to that . You know what kind of segway that is. Has to lead us to indra petersons. Does it hah have to do anything with the weather at all . It doesnt, although you need the weather to grow it. There you go. All right.

Welcome back to new day. Want to get to the latest now on the Oscar Pistorius murder trial. On the stand right now, pistorius friends. He is the friend pistorius allegedly asked to take the fall for gunfire at a crowded restaurant. Robin, good morning. Reporter he has taken the stand this morning. Hes outlined to the court two incidents he said he witnessed pistorius being wreckless and irresponsible with handguns. And pistorius asked him to take the wrap for him. In addition, weve also heard the pathologist being crossexamined. Take a listen to this. This morning the pathologist who conducted the autopsy on pistorius girlfriend, details so graphic, that the judge halted live broadcast. Revealing that Reeva Steenkamp was two hours before her death, contradicting pistorius story that they were in bed by 9 00 p. M. That night. Three shots hitting his girlfriend in her hip, arm and head. He said he thought it would be somewhat abnormal if someone did not scream. The description of her injuries so gruesome, they left pistorius physically ill on monday, vomiting into a bucket, and shaken as he left court. Hollow point bullets are incredibly destructive on impact. Besides the mushroom it would form, it would form almost like a little fan. You can imagine the amount of damage that can do to you. The defense will argue it was his disability that led pistorius to use the hollow point bullets. Meanwhile, the state will continue to argue that he knew he was behind the closed bathroom door and that he deliberately shot Reeva Steenkamp dead. Oscar pistorius is far more composed today in stark contract to yesterday. Thank you very much. Want to tell you about a scary moment. The dallas stars, Rich Peverley collapses.
