Dog after falling onto the subway tracks in new york city adds a new friend to the family than tox the kindness of strangers. Were there exclusively today, sunday, january 26, 2014. Announcer from nbc news, this is today, with lester holt and erica hill live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Welcome to today on this sunday morning. Im erica hill. Im lester holt alongside dylan and jenna. Sadly another case of a gunman opening fire with thousands of people nearby. Typical saturday, people go to the mall and suddenly shots ring out. Thats our top story. It hadnt been open for very long on saturday when people started running for covering, hearing the barrage of bullets all around them. This Morning Police are still trying to determine just what may have sparked the senseless violence. Kristen welker is outside that mall in columbia, maryland, with the latest. Good morning. Reporter erica, good morning. This malo kated about 25 miles outside of washington, d. C. Remains closed this morning while Police Continue their investigation. Overnight they say they found and disabled two devices, what appeared to be crude attempts at explosives. They said they scoured the mall with canine units. This morning this community continues to be rattled by the violence that erupted here. Police say 21yearold Brianna Benlolo and 25yearold Tyler Johnson were working at the Clothing Store sooum please when a gunman opened fire killing them both before police say he turned the gun on himself. It was just boom, boom, boom and people started screaming and running. Reporter the shooting began just after 11 00 saturday morning. 911 calls captured the first terrifying moments. We have an active shooter at the columbia malast seen at the food court. Reporter witnesses say the crowded mall became a scene of fear and chaos. We were crying and scared out of our minds. It was completely crazy. Everybody started running, screaming. I almost passed out because i couldnt breathe. Reporter some fled while others sought a safe place inside. There was a young couple with two brand new babies. We have like a restroom at the end in the storeroom, so as many people as we could fit in there. Reporter police say they got to the mall within minutes of the first 11 they say they found three bodies in the second floor store. And next to the gunman, a shotgun. He also had a large amount of ammunition on and about him. Because of concerns about any other weapons he may have or explosives, we are approaching this as an abundance of caution. Reporter while Police Worked late into the night searching for clues and surveillance video, outside a vigil for the victims as yet another American Community prepares to mourn lives. When Something Like this happens, it makes you realize how fragile life is and how it can change for you in an instant. Reporter now, police say they have tentatively identified the shooter. We expect to learn more about that at a News Conference which is scheduled for later on this morning. So far no word on a motive, but Law Enforcement sources say there are early indications that the shooter may have known one of his victims. Five people were injured in this incident. They have been treated and released. The Associated Press is reporting that brianna, one of the victims, was also a young mother. Just adding to the devastation here. Kristen, thank you. Olympic athletes will soon be leaving home to head to sochi, russia. That comes behind the new threat against russia from militants who already claim responsibility for a deadly bombing last month, in fact, two attacks last month. Keir, good morning. Reporter good morning. Im actually standing in front of the picturesque mountain that surround sochi as i speak. In the background we can hear music playing for the celebrations that will launch the games. Yet with all the concerns you talk about, theyre seeing fewer americans booked to come here than for the last 20 years. High above the olympic park, keeping watch this morning. Control tears are picking up uniforms. Many more arrived today bringing enthusiasm even excitement. Im having fun. Im very proud that my countrys host of the games. Reporter but a month after a double suicide bombing in a city 4 hurk 400 miles from sochi, more threats. An internet message from the group behind that attack promising further violence. Though not mentioning sochi and many believe the threat to the games is low. The security at sochi is going to be huge. I think it would difficult not impossible, nothing is impossible, but difficult to pull off an attack there. Reporter president putins Spokesman Says this is all an attempt by the west to discredit russia. Swimming in the cold waters of the black sea for fun. And determined, they say, not to be frightened by threats. Sochi is preparing to welcome the world. Russia getting ready for its closeup. And there are lots of smiling volunteers everywhere you go here. And they have been learning how to welcome americans, how to reach out across the cultural divide. In russia even the idea of volunteering is new, lester. The word volunteer in russian is taken from the american word volunteer. Thanks very much. David gregory is moderator of meet the press and joins us this morning. Good morning. Good morning. We heard about these stories. We hear conflicting stories over the past week about the threat, about concerns for americans headed there. When it comes to cooperation between the u. S. And russia, how important is it that there be some cooperation . I think its very important. Remember, Vladimir Putin is at a high level of awareness and concern about anything going wrong for these games. You know, you look at that security blimp that keir talked about, there was also one in afghanistan high above kabul. You talk about how to harden a target. I think that security perimeter around the games is a very hard target to penetrate. It doesnt mean theres not significant worry and a potential threat there. But i think that with the president speaking to the russian president this week, i think theres going to be a high level of cooperation and anticipation. The president looks to address the state of the country with the state of the union. There is also speculation about what will be in that speech. He is going to lay out an agenda. At this time last year, his Approval Rating was much higher. 53 . Its now at 42 . As he lays out that agenda, how important is it to be measured especially in an Election Year if he wants to get anything done . Well, i think he doesnt want to be measured when it comes to defining democrats versus republicans. Right . Thats the great thing he can add to this debate is to say as the head of the democrats, we have an agenda to make sure nobodys left behind for the middle class. Really kind of a down payment, i think, on the future of the democratic party. But also to be thinking about midterm elections. I think it depends what persuasive punch he has left. Maybe some momentum for Immigration Reform among republicans. So look for an outstretched happened in at least those couple of areas. Real quickly, will we hear much about obama care . No. Hes got to do it. The republicans are going to use it against him. Hes got a big audience to make the case for why in his view its working and will continue to work. David gregory, nice to see you. Well check back with you in a little bit. Some of us got a break yesterday. But another arctic blast heading our way. Dylan is here with that. Its a broken record with the cold. All of january has been exceptionally cold because of this polar vortex. Its always there, but its wobbling a little bit. That shoots off these areas of low pressure sinking to the south dragging the jet stream as far south as parts of the deep south into areas like alabama and mississippi. And temperatures especially tomorrow and tuesday will rival that cold blast we had at the beginning of the year if not a little bit colder by 7 00 a. M. Monday morning. 15 below in minneapolis with your feels like temperature, minus 43 degrees. Chicago by 5 00 p. M. Monday, 4 below. Chicago gets up to about 14 below on tuesday morning. So that is going to be a cold wait at the bus stop. 8 will be the feels like in charlotte. Into wednesday, it will moderate a little bit. Still not great. Temperatures will still be staying below average for quite some time. All right, dylan. Thanks very much. Well get the full forecast in just a few minutes. Right now lets get caught up on the other stories. Janna is here with that. Good morning, everyone. U. S. Health officials are expected to board a Royal Caribbean cruiseship. They want to investigate a possible outbreak of a contagious norovirus. Another major retailer may have fallen victim to a Data Security tap. Michaels is investigating the possible breach on its network. Its telling customers to check their statements, but the warning comes in the wake of Security Breaches at target and niemann marcus. We head overseas now to egypt where the death toll continues to rise. State tv is reporting at least three people were killed this morning in an attack. This comes a day after officials confirmed at least 49 people died in attacks across the country. The violent cashes and celebrations are marking the third anniversary of their 2011 uprising. After weeks of speculation about his personal life, Francois Hollande says hes splitting with his longtime girlfriend. Reporter the french president and his first lady now beginning life apart. Francois hollande announced the end of his relationship with Valerie Trierweiler after news of his affair. He made a note i want to to be known ive put an end to my shared live with Valerie Trierweiler. He cannot afford any of that to be polluted with some negative focus on his private life. Reporter two weeks ago a tabloid magazine posted pictures of his visiting his ladys apartment and staying overnight. Soon after the first lady checked in to the hospital for exhaustion. Promising to clear up confusion before the state visit to the u. S. Next month. The couple had been together for seven years, but never married. In relaxed france, that was okay. So, too, it seems was an affair. Whether the public even had a right to know. This woman says he can do what he wants. Its his life. Trierweiler is keeping a low profile but tweeted about her emotional depackture with staff at the president ial palace. Some in france now wondering who might take her place. Nbc news, london. And finally, apparently just being good looking and having an incredible body is not enough to win a grand slam title at the Australian Open. Right now rafael nadal is saying with b dang, serious . The win was big. It was subdued. Because he was more concerned with checking on his competitor. Nadal suffered a back injury in the second set. He did finish it. By the way, he was 012 against nadal coming into the match. Thats huge. Exactly. All right. Thanks. One week from today, we will be counting down to kickoff. Excitement is already building here in new york city for super bowl xlviii even though that game will actually be playing across the river in new jersey at metlife stadium. And its that focus on the big apple that has neighbors across the hudson a little miffed this morning. Reporter good morning. Theres a lot of trash talking. Its not even between the players. Theres the matchup on the field between the seahawks and the broncos, but whats taking center stage before the game is the debate over whos hosting the super bowl. Is it new york or new jersey . The stage is set for the biggest game of the season with a week to go to the super bowl, all eyes are on one city. New york city is hosting the super bowl. New york. New york city. Reporter but theres one small problem. Actually, the game wont even be played in new york. But about eight miles west of the big apple in new jersey. Oh, yeah. New jersey. Same thing. Reporter not if you ask new jersey senator bob menendez. Richard sherman isnt going to be yelling at anybody in the financial district. Its happening here in new jersey. Reporter you wouldnt necessarily know it if you looked at the hype around the game. The epicenter for super bowl fans is in the heart of times square. Super bowl take into accou super bowl tickets, the lombardi trophy is superimposed on the outline of new york. The game is actually being held in new jersey. Thats not fair. Reporter while the nfl insists the super bowl is shared between the two states, this s about much more than bragging rights. It would have been great if the giants or the jets would have won, but nevertheless, having the pride of having the game here but the economic impact. Potentially hundreds of millions of dollars. Reporter money that is mostly going to new york instead of new jersey which is hosting the game. And more importantly footing the bill for security and making sure the super bowl goes off without a hitch. While the new Jersey Hotels and restaurants will see a spike, in the end, new jersey may have a hard time competing with the glitz and glamour of the big apple. Now, i was out in new jersey yesterday. The food was great. They have some selling points. People are excited. They root for the nurnlss jets and giants when theyre there. They say theyre all a suburb of new york. Its a great story though. I love the rivalry going on. Thanks very much. Dylan is out on the plaza with a check of the rest of the national forecast. Our local jersey girl, dylan dreyer. And a patriots fan. Figure that one out. We are going to see blizzard conditions in parts of the nsno on the ground. Life threatening conditions.

Its a followup to a heartwarming story we first told you about last night. You may remember the story of cecil williams. Hes a blind man who fell on the subway tracks in new york city. He was saved by his guard dog. After that he couldnt keep his dog as a pet any longer. The dog was getting too old to be a guide dog. But now orlando will stay with him and cecil has a new guide dog too. Graduation day at guiding eyes for the blind. And for godiva, its day one on the job with her new owner cecil williams. But this yellow lab has some pretty big paws to fill. It was williams old guide dog orlando that drew national attention. Whos a good dog . The answer is orlando. Williams fainted and fell on the subway tracks. Orlando followed him down and barked for attention and huddled on top of him as the train came to a halt on top of them. Orlando was like my angel. Hes always been that since i got him. We work together. I protect him and he protects me. But at 11 years old, orlando is too old to be a working guide dog. And williams can no longer afford to keep him. Even now the thought of giving up his loyal friend puts him to tears. Spirit of good will, it exists. In the world you see a lot of negative things, but i try to focus on the positives. Thanks to anonymous donors, williams can now keep both dogs as orlando shifts from protector in chief to big brother. Orlando will learn he can put his feet up and its going to be godivas turn to work. I feel i was blessed with orlando. And now im being blessed again. He saved me. Now shes come along to carry on where he left off. Such a great story. Guiding eyes for the blind received thousands of dollars in donations after cecils story came out. And they have said theyll use that leftover money to help other people with disabilities. It is a great story. Glad it worked out. Lets get a final check of the weather now from dylan.

All because these clippers systems. This next one is producing more snow. Its clearing out in chicago where theres 2 to 3 inches on the ground. But its moving eastward where well have about 4 inches. These clippers bring some snow and then they reinforce the cold air. Its only going to get coulder with those blizzard conditions because of blowing snow in parts of north dakota tomorrow. Not as much snow, but it is going to be brutally cold with temperatures dropping down below zero. Good morning. 6 35 the time right now. We are waking up to a few high, thin clouds. Not any fog, at least right now. From every microclimate zone youll find a few passing clouds. A little breezy in the east bay. This afternoon temperatures will only warm into the 60s.

If you want to learn more about that guys top three, head to today. Com. Here is erica. Thanks that guy and lester. Les. Thats right. Its the last sunday in january. Its our final installment of get fit today. Jenna is across the studio with great bits of advice for us. Thanks for letting me take your twin dress and cutting it and using it as a tirks shirt. My first tip is something you can do any time anyway. Its your glutes and your core. Every time you take a step, you should be squeezing your rear end, every single step. A little bit goes a long way. Lester is going to demonstrate the squeezing just kidding, lester. Squeeze your glutes. Your core is the key to your strength. Tight core, tight body. Work that area, help not only the abdominal region, posture, quord nance, balance, you should be holding it in all day long. Hold it in now, ill check back with you. I was already. Youre not holding your stomach in. Anybody following us on twitter knows we did core work this morning. We did a threeminute plank. And by we they mean jenna and lester, but dylan and i had a stop watch and a camera. We did it. I give you credits. Keep that core tight. Tip number two, mix up your fitness routine. If youve heard it once, you heard it a thousand times. If you just spin or you just run or do the elliptical, youre missing out on the different muscle groups. Incorporate mini routines into your work out, youll burn more calories. One way is what i call pocket exerci exercises. You can pull them out any time. There are hundreds you can pick from.
