and tried to drive it through theto pedestrian crosswalk. the vehicle is largely in tact. you can see a still picture of it with the doors closed, the roof is in tact, it is not shot through, there has been no large blast in heit. he might have thought that he would get a blast, that's pretty common with aspiring bombers, they think a lotri of gasoline going to explode in some hollywood i fashion, but if the don't it just right, it is not going to work. it can get pretty complicated. itre looks like suicide with intentional homicide right now, but theho underlying motive we don't know. >> jim cavanaugh for us, thank you. just to reiterate, we're learning from the rochester pd michael avery intentionally drove his vehicle into a pedestrian tocrosswalk. as we get more information on a possible motive, we'll bring it to you. b i want to turn back to the conversation we were having before this news conference, former president trump preparing for a high stakes hearing, one week from today on the question of presidential immunity in the
