We have live shots right now, looking at the live shots from our station, wftv over the huge si sinkhole. Let get right to the rescue of hannah anderson, reunited with her father after a massive manhunt that stretched from Southern California to idaho. Ryan owen is in boise with the latest. Good morning, ryan. Reporter good morning to you, george. Hannah is with her father this morning. Shes in good shape, at least physically. Yesterday, she met with a view visitors, namely the horseback riders whose tip blew this case wide open. It wasnt just those heros in uniform who saved hannah anderson. Hannahs coming home. Reporter it was these sharpeyed civilians on horseback. Just had a gut feeling about him. Reporter these four came across the 16yearold and her 40yearold kidnapper last week in idaho. Hannah was wearing pajamas, appeared scared, kept looking away, and muttered i think were all in trouble now. When they saw the teens picture on tv, they call police. And hundreds of federal agents descended on the woods. First spotting the car friday morning. Police just released the pictures of how he tried to cover it up with limbs and brush. Saturday, from the air, they discovered a camp site to surprise dimaggio, members of the Fbi Hostage Rescue Team jumped from a helicopter and hiked 2 1 2 treacherous hours. The fbi will not detail what happened next, only that dimaggio was given a chance to surrender before they killed him. The onetime close family friend murdered hannahs mother and 8yearold brother. Their bodies found in his Burning House in san diego county. The strangest cake of like father like son. In 1989, a pain reported that James Dimaggio senior was arrested for breaking into a home and holding a 16yearold at gun poipt. The girl, the same age as hannah, escaped through a bathroom window. Theres more. Family friends say dimaggios dad committed suicide on august the 10th, all those years ago. The very same day his son was killed by the fbi. Feoff it inially something that snapped. The only thing that makes sense is the correlation with the dates of his fathers suicide. Reporter hannahs grandparents, family, friends are all eager for her homecoming. Theyll be celebrating that shes home, but remember, mourping the loss of her mother and her little brother. George . Thank you, ryan. Join us now, the hero horseback riders. Thank you all for getting up so early for us. Mark and crystal, take us to that moment. When you realized this might be hannah anderson. We never realized it might be them until the next day. When we got home and seen the amber flash on the television. What were those red flags that caught your eye . They just didnt fit in that kind of country. They said they were backcountry people in california. They sure didnt fit out there if the idaho mountains. They wasnt dressed correctly. They just didnt fit. Looked like a square peg going in a round hole. What were they doing when you came upon them . They stepped off the side of the trail so they wouldnt spook the horses so we could go by. They were extremely quiet. Didnt want to engage in conversation. Kind of had a a bad look on their face. A bad look. Mike . You had this gut feeling that something wasnt right . I seen a lot of fear in her eyes. I didnt like what i seen in his eyes. That put up a major red flag for me. Crystal, what did you say to each other as you started to realize what was going on . We all concurred, it was a teenage daughter was made to go on a trip with her dad and was very unhappy about it. She was not happy to be there. Did it appear she had been hurt at all . No. No. Other than her feet. Is there she was really tired. They came a long way in some real Rough Country packing some large rucksacks on their back. Those ruck sacks looked brandnew. Her feet were sore. She was wore out. He didnt have much to say . He didnt want to talk . No, neither one wanted to talk. They were quite reserved. Thats not like most people in the back country because, in the back country, when you meet somebody, you want to share the experience, the terrain. I had asked him what made him pick this remote area. He said, last year she got to pick. She picked los angeles and hollywood and he said, this year was my turn. So that was a plausible answer for their being back there. Youll have a chance to meet hannah and her father today. What do you want to tell them . Were happy for them that everything turned out right and hannah gets to go back home and be with her folks. I just want to give her a hug. I have granddaughters. I can just about imagine how happy they are to have her back. Ill bet you they are. It wouldnt have happened without all of you. Thank you for your time this morning. Thank you. They may have saved her life. Really something. Heroes. Lets get to josh and the other top stories. We saw pictures at the top of the show. Its breaking out of central florida. The sinkhole swallowing up this resort villa you here. People woken up by a cracking sound. Minutes later, told to get out as fast as they could. All of this happening a few miles outside of orlando in the town of clermont. It sounded like a car hitting the building. Reporter they had no warning. First the lights went out. Then chaos. We heard shaking, glass breaking. And we thought maybe it was just kids running up and down the hall or something. Next thing i know, people are yelling, get out of the building, get out of the building. Reporter within seconds, this massive crack opened in the foundation, caused bay 40 to 50foot wide neath the building. One person had to break out of a window because the door frame collapsed. He and his wife and infant, he had to break the window so they could escape. Reporter the apartment had collapsed. The entire building tilting to one side. Right now, the threestory building looks like a twostory building. Its utter chaos. Reporter this morning, another villa evacuated nearby, not sure about the stability of the ground. Thankfully, everyone did escape safely before the collapse. Look at that as dawn has broken in clermont. The sinkhole may be growing deeper. So far, it was not appear to be growing wider, which is helping crews as they try to stabilize the area. Well have updates throughout the morning. Were expecting a major announcement today from attorney general eric holer. He wants to change how some nonviolent lowlevel drug offenders are prosecuted. The goal is to ease prison overcrowding, save pun, and correct what holder calls unfairness in the system. Hes revealing his plan today in san francisco. And Asiana Airlines is offering 10,000 to each survivor of the crash last month. Accepting the payout will not prevept passengers from suing the company. In virginia, glare from the sun blamed for what you see here. Massive pileup. 41 cars and trucks smashing into each other on i81. Cars ended up on top of each other. But no major injuries were reported. And a narrow escape caught on camera here. A car careening into a parking lot in california, nearly plowing down the three men there. The car going about 60 miles an hour. Police are investigating what caused the crash. Lets hope president obamas golf game improves as he enjoys vacation on marthas vineyard. Got off to a rough start. He rolled the first attempt on the first green. And left that short. And then, oh, that second one. Oh, boy. You know, if the president he picks it up after that one. Does he get a mulligan . The president gets whatever he wants. A rough foursome there. Not like he wasnt trying. That is body english. Is that a move to get it in . Apparently. Boy, hey, president obama, if we play, you can pick that up. Thats all im saying. Wise move. Wise move. Who wants cameras watching them on the golf course. I cant do it when one guy and a raccoon is watching. Now we turn to the wet weather leading to flooding in so many parts of the country. And more rain expected, again today. Ginger zee is in for sam this morning with a look at that. The Colorado Springs area hit so hard is also in the zone again . Right, that same town, manitou springs. This is right now. Theyll be under watch this afternoon and evening. A huge part of the country slammed last week also under watch. Its this. This spike in a river gauge that quickly shows you how in less than 15 minutes, ten feet of water comes slamming down. This is the most terrifying thing i have ever seen. I cant stop changing. This is gods power. Reporter one person dead. The search for another is on after furious flash flooding mauled manitou springs, colorado. Oh, my god. Those people. Dont get out. Reporter watch the moment as 70yearold glen dotson decides whether or not to jump. Hes got to know hes better off in the car. Reporter from the car to the black flood waters rushing down the rode. Dotson goes for it. He just fell down. Walls of mud and water came at me. The next thing i knew, cars were flying past me. I had a pickup just barely miss me. It looked like one of them was going to get me for sure. Reporter today, hes safe. He says he may not have made it if not for ben tillman, stuck in his own car. He was in shock. Being a medic, i know you talk him down. Were together. Youre not getting out of the car until its time. Im going to take care of you. Reporter one man lost his life. 54yearold john collins. This morning, this Mountain Town just six miles from Colorado Springs is caked in up to half a foot of mud. That raging water leaving this muddy mess. Now a huge factor in why this all happened. The waldo canyon fire of last year. That area is completely scarred by the burn. That affects them so big. This is their third and worst of the year. It could happen again. Feeling for them. Thanks. We turn to politics now. The next president ial race heating up already. Iowa playing host to a lot of candidates this week end. Iowa gets early attention. Nothing like this. Thats right, george. The president may be on vacation this week. But those thinking about trying to replace him are taking no rest. The iowa state fair. From cows made of butter to tractor pulls. Its a great arteryclogging tradition that never fails to attract president ial wannabes. Rick san tomorrtorum is back. Were excited to be here. Reporter donald trump, trying to sound like a president ial candidate. I have always loved iowa because the people of i what are hardworking people. Im pro life. Traditional marriage. Second amendment 100 . Reporter backstage, he says theres though limit to how much he would spend. The modern president ial campaign with be half a million dollars. Or more. If i get it, i would spend whatever it took. Reporter its hard to take him seriously when hes still raising questions about the president s birth certificate. You dont still question whether he was born in the United States do you . I have no idea. I just said its going to be in my opinion, a tougher race tan the last race. You better get your act together, republicans, because it will be tough to beat hillary. Reporter and hillary supporters were in iowa. Laying ground work. That moment in 2017 when we all get to say, madame president to Hillary Rodham clinton. Reporter another highprofile visit coming up to iowa. None other than Vice President joe biden. Hell travel to iowa next month going to the same political event that barack obama made his political debut in iowa at in 2006 as a senator. The message for the biden camp is, for all the talk of hillary, dont forget about joe. Madame president. All right. We move on to the find of a lifetime for a 12yearold boy. He was on vacation with his family in arkansas. When, oh, he discovered a true diamond in the rough. John muller has the story. Reporter when michaels family stopped at this Arkansas State park called the crater of diamonds, he wasnt expecting much. They tell you youll find these little diamonds that are so small pip expected to get a couple of those. Reporter instead in a state best known for little rock, the 12yearold found an enormous rock. We were there around ten minutes. I found it on top. It was glassy. Very smooth. Didnt look like anything else around it. Reporter but he and his parents didnt realize he found real diamond in the rough. We all looked at it and dismissed it. Later on in the day, when we were ready to quit, we let in the kids go to the rock identification people by themselves. I brought the rock out of the bag. The guy who was there got bugeyed. He said, hang on a second, i need to take this to the back room. People came from everywhere. Its a big diamond, they said. Reporter not just big. More than 5 karats. Appraisers say it could be worth as much as 15,000. If it can get cut and is valuable, i would probably have it dut and sell it. If not, its a great souvenir. Reporter it might not be the largest stone found there, a distinction that belongs to a 40karat rock found years ago. Its not a bad souvenir. It was a rainy morning. We were thinking of november going. Its amazing how much attention a 5karat diamond brings. Reporter for abc news, john muller, new york. We were watching vid yos on our rainy mornings.
