We hear from the brave men and women working behind the scenes during Wednesday’s mass shooting making sure help and support got to where it was needed.
About 100 police officers and swab the echoes about five minutes in this direction next to truist park, with the atlanta braves play baseball. the braves are playing on the road tonight, so is very quiet in that area. the area is called a battery here. they are restaurants and theaters next to the baseball stadium. it was full of swat vehicles and police officers looking for the suspect. earlier in the day, the car that is believed, that this man hijacked, was found in a parking lot in the battery area. police then asked employees in the office where the car was parked they saw the man. they said they did not see the man. a woman i talked to who worked in the office tells us the officer told her they have video from a camera nearby that shows him leaving the car, and walking through an apartment complex which was right next to us. apparently he walked through the complex here, crossed this very busy street in cobb county, georgia a county with a population of 670, 000, northwest of atlanta, as i said and is now apprehended inside the we are waiting for him to come
Out. it appears that this chase for this man, looking for him, is all over. gary tuchman, we just got word, by the way, gary tuchman, that the police are giving a press conference at 8:15 pm. we will bring that to you. i want to go to cnn s ryan young, where the shooting happened. ryan, it s obviously been an incredibly busy ending chaotic day for law enforcement. yeah, absolutely, it has, anderson cooper. what we were told earlier on from our sources is that this man appeared here at this facility to get some sort of medical attention with his mother. and at some point, he became agitated on the inside, and started shooting inside this complex. there were nurses and patients who were running for their lives. they were locking doors. and they were immediately aware of the situation, and you can see that a pd was able to put
Out a great description photo of this man and tried to shut down all the parking lots in the nearby area so he could not get out of here. but then we learned he did carjacks someone and that carjacking took place while he was rushing towards cobb county. all day long, we were talking to our sources about what he did to try to minimize the shooting scene in terms of this the impact of it all. there were dozens of people who are calling 9-1-1 when this initially happened. and as we move to a situation we knew that they were actually arresting some people who they thought look just like the suspect. then we learned the man, at some, point was a member of the military. he served in the coast guard for quite some time. and he was agitated with some of the medical care that he was receiving. and they came to this facility to get some help. and then something went sideways on the inside, anderson, and then that shooting started. from that point on, it s been an all out effort all day long, with the roads around here shut down. and then the massive man hunt, and the camera networks
The text messages as fox producer in the hours after rioters stormed the capitol on january 6th. according to the times, quote, the discovery of the message contributed to a chain of events that ultimately led to mr. carlson s firing. it contains a racist statement and i m going to read the text message as the times quotes it. quote, a couple of weeks ago, i was this from tucker carlson, allegedly a couple of weeks ago i was watching a video of people fighting in the street in washington. a group of trump guys surrounded an antifa kid and started pounding the living s out of him. it was three against one at least, jumping a guy like that is dishonourable, obviously. it s not how white men fight. yet, suddenly, i found myself rooting for the mob against the man, hoping it would hit him harder, kill him. i really wanted him them to hurt the kid. i could taste it. then, somewhere deep in my brain, an alarm went off. this isn t good for me. i m becoming something i don t want to be. the antifa is a human being, much what i despise what he says and does, much as i m sure i d hate him personally if i knew him, i should not gloat over his
County, 11 miles north of where the shootings happened, midtown atlanta. we counted between 25 and 30 police vehicles that came out of there. there are still some inside of. there we know there are a lot because about an hour ago, kind of i counted 100 police officers vehicles to our south. that was the report the police caught from video cameras, that they look, they saw this man go into an apartment complex that was under construction. that was a few blocks away. they got a tip of a suspicious man was inside this apartment complex at waterford place, complex in this upscale neighborhood in cobb county. and that was indeed where they found him and that is indeed where he still is as we speak. anderson? gary, as i said to our viewers, we are turning into a press conference in a minute or two. we are told it will be at a 15 pm. that s a little less than 2:50 minutes from now. we will try to bring that to you live. mayor bottoms, while the manhunt was ongoing, the atlanta police chief said that
Throughout the city, to try to locate this man. but i can tell you that people have been shaking all day long. former atlanta mayor keisha lance bottoms, also senior cnn law enforcement analyst and fbi director deputy director andrew mccabe. andrew, i m wondering, first of all, what s your reaction to the suspect being apprehended? well, anderson, obviously, it s a great result. this is what you hope for in a main, to find the person you are looking for before they are able to hurt anybody else. and, of course, to take that person into custody without having to fire a shot. it will be really interesting to hear what the police have to say about how they finally identified his location in that neighborhood that we just saw. gary pointed to and there s a lot of things to listen to their. but i have to tell you that there is no way to describe the intensity of what it is like to be involved in or overseeing a manhunt like this. having done it a few times in my own career, including in a
