annapolis just yet. we have live pictures from hanover. that is the building right there, the maryland department of transportation headquarters on the right side of your screen. one of the two buildings in which a package has detonated. what we are hearing from government officials and through our cnn d.c. radio affiliate, wtop, is that there were blasts at both builds, but that no one was injured in either of the blasts. we're still trying to determine what exploded, what type of blasts they were, how big and how damaging they were. what we do understand is that nobody was injured in either of those -- those explosions. now, here is a picture. this is not -- these are not live tv pictures. we're looking at google earth here. these are pictures of annapolis. you see the state house right in the center there. all of those streets that go off of this. this explosion was at a building that is across the road from the state house. again, jim was just helping me out by letting me know where it
exhausting view, another one called it an elaborate fraud. >> all the way through the paper, we see dr. wakefield chiseling the data. falsifying medical history of children and especially concocting it, which is the picture he was hoping to find by lawyers to create a vaccine care. >> on "a.c. 360" dr. wakefield disputed those claims. >> it's a ruthless, pragmatic attempt to crush any investigation into it. i'm hear of meeting of experts from vaccines from around the world who are extremely concerned and the safety of vaccines that they believe and i believe is being done to children. >> elizabeth cohen, cnn, atlanta. i want to bring in j.b. hanley, he's the co-founder of volunteer
we've got our affiliate, wtop, providing most of the reporting on this. again, the building in annapolis was the jeffrey building on francis street for those of you who know annapolis, maryland. the one we're looking at now, however, is in hanover, maryland. that is the most information i've got right now. let me tell you more about this. the building in annapolis, the jeffrey building, is the state house office building. the one in hanover is a department of transportation headquarters. for the maryland department of transportation. we are getting this information via the affiliate wbal. apparently this is attributed to the annapolis mayor telling us that the jeffrey building that an explosion occurred in in annapolis, maryland, is the state house office building. all right. i'm now getting information -- my executive producer is telling me that that is not necessarily
were just showing you. this is the maryland department of transportation headquarters. that's the building on the right side. one went to that mailroom. the other one went to the jeffrey building, which is a bl block away from the state house in annapolis, maryland. there's the state house. you see the red dot, that's the jeffrey building. we are told that they were not big explosions. they were packages. we don't know what the packages are. both buildings have been evacuated. a source has told cnn that something happened. they detonated, flame was emitted. the source talking to cnn felt that it might be too strong to call them blasts. but we still have details coming in. one of the details is that annapolis, there may be one injury there as well. there do appear to be some injuries. let's go to jeanne meserve who is following this from washington. jeane, what do you know? >> explosion might be too strong a word to describe what happened
with these two packages. however, they did ignite. these devices went off. we're told that flames were emitted. one individual was trying to deal with one of the packages and did at least -- one person sustained injuries. those were burns to their hands. this is a maryland incident. the maryland state police are taking the lead. the fbi is also responding. the department of homeland security says it is aware. it's closely monitoring reports, but at this point, this is a maryland state incident at this point. these two devices, the only ones we've heard about so far, ali. >> okay. stand by. let's bring fran townsend in, joining us from new york. fran, what i haven't told our viewers is that the jeffrey building, the one in annapolis, housed homeland security and it housed the secretary of state. the other building was the -- in hanover, maryland, was the
issues, but he's a grown-up and that's what they need in the white house. >> all right. well, we'll watch it all unfold. gloria, thank you very much. great to have you here. your next political update is just an hour away. i want to bring in tom f fuentes to cover this news in maryland. two explosions in two mailrooms of two government buildings. tom fuentes is a security correspondent and contributor for cnn, former fbi. tom, what do you make of what we've heard so far? >> hi, ali. i agree what fran townsend and jeanne meserve has reported. it's very early in the investigation to determine what type of attack or who might have been behind it. obviously no one has claimed credit yet that we know of. and at this point, it will be the forensic work to determine how the bomb was put together, if it was a bomb that didn't work or was it an incendiary-type device that someone concocted at home and tried to detonate to cause an
just got of a briefing with the state department. and he is saying that there are conflicting media reports swirling around and that the u.s. state department has tried to get clarification. they've reached out to the iranians, to the swiss, those are our protective power for the united states, since we don't have relations. they're not getting anything directly from them yet. they've talked to the armenians who are part of story says the woman walked over the border from armenia into iran and then was arrested. but the armenians still haven't said anything. and then there are other reports, a lot of them, that say she didn't get in there in the first place because she never got a visa. and there are even reports that she had a microphone in her teeth. >> wow. >> so this is one of the more bizarre stories. again it may be bogus, a lot of confusion. but so far, absolutely no confirmation from the state department. >> tell us about the three hikers. the one was released, two of
what we're pointing at at the moment or if that is the building that we're talking about. most of the emergencies -- most of the emergency vehicles seem to be centered around something closer than than building where -- where the explosion may have taken place. you can see there where hanover and annapolis are. annapol annapolis, obviously the state capital. we're moving in there. all right. so that is the -- okay. so that is the building that we were looking at right there, the large pibuilding. that's the maryland department of transportation headquarters in hanover, maryland. we're taking a look now through street view to get a sense of what it is. that's the building. we were looking at it. that's the building. it does appear that there's no activity at the building. there were a lot of emergency vehicles parked some distance away from that building. again, officials are telling us there were two blasts, two different government buildings in maryland, but that there were no injuries in either package explosion. one of them that you're looking at right now in hanover,
daley. >> to step into the breach and lead us through a very difficult time. and i also ask pete to help us think about how the white house should be structured and run over the next two years. thanks in no small part to his efforts, a period that everybody thought would be one of retrenchment turned out to be one of great progress for our country. and pete's leadership is all the more remarkable when you consider that when i first met him and asked him to lead my senate staff, he told me in that gruff voice of his that his strong inclination was to leave government. so the reason everybody is applauding is because they've heard him say that every day for the last six years. and yet each time i have asked him to accept one more
