23/09/2014 ABC World News Tonight with David Muir

family and community still hope she will be found. Time for a look at

the news as seen across the US a couple of hours ago, in ABC world

news. This evening, the new video showing

the increasing danger to Americans. The direct threats from ISIS, and he

knew details on a crackdown on any American who might want to join

them. Three American cities where they have seen it already. The armed

intruder who charges across the front lawn, right through the front

door of the White House. We have just learnt what was found in his

car long before. Were warning signs ignored?

It is great to have you with us on a Monday night, and we begin with the

newest call to action. The direct and threatening message from ISIS.

The parade on video, many people Westerners who joined their site.

The White House revealing an urgent hunt for any American who might be

inking of joining ISIS, or who has come back after joining up. Three

American cities have already seen it. We begin with our chief

investigative correspondence. Those cities where they have seen it, that

is where they will start. US officials saying that confronting

the threat from ISIS is the highest priority. As ISIS turned up the

tempo on its machine today, new videos of its military like

formations and dire threats to American civilians, US officials

revealed details of a promised crackdown on Westerners who want to

join ISIS or already have, like these Britons. We are working

closely with our partners to try to minimise this. They said efforts to

cut down the jihad pipeline will include crackdowns in Los Angeles,

Boston and Chicago. These are the kind of young men and women, seen in

this latest video, parading in uniform with brand`new AK`47s. What

about the other headline we are following tonight? Afghan soldiers

at Cape Cod now missing? Three officers were here for training,

they went missing on Saturday night, turns out they went to Canada to

seek legal asylum. Marker, as you know, there were images pouring in.

More than 100 families racing to get out of Syria, urgent fears over

ISIS, what are you learning tonight?

have been relentless, using tanks and artillery. Some 130,000 refugees

streaming across the border into Turkey. It just point to the urgency

of the problem. The US has been striking ISIS targets in Iraq, about

200 of them, at the US is considering strikes in Syria as

well. The US has been picking targets for weeks doing

surveillance. The targets will likely include command and control,

weapons convoys and any kind of training area. And of course the

president will be at the UN this week, trying to get more support.

Thank you. Now TB scare at the White House. The suspect, seen on

surveillance tape, sprints across the lawn, getting break through the

door. `` now to the scare. Tonight there are new questions about

security at the White House. Were warning signs missed? We now no

authorities discovered ammunition in his car before the incident.

Today, federal prosecutors declared the man who leapt over the fence and

charged into the White House and danger to the president. It was all

court on Friday on the cellphone video. Omar Gonzalez travels more

than 100 yards only impeded before he gets to the front door of the

White House. It is unlocked, he gets inside, with a 3.5 inch knife.

Disturbing evidence betrays the suspect as an unstable man obsessed

with the White House, who had been heavily armed during a recent

arrest. Omar Gonzalez allegedly tries to evade police after driving

erratically. Police discover an arsenal in his vehicle, including

the shotgun, rifles, sniper rifles and handguns. And perhaps more

troubling, Virginia State Police discover a map of Washington, DC

with a line drawn to the White House. Authorities told us they

contacted the Secret Service and tonight there are real questions

about how aggressively the agency followed up. Omar Gonzalez was

released on bond. By August 25, he made his way to Washington. In

another encounter with police, he walked a long bizarre friends of the

White House, this time with a hatchet in his westbound. Then, last

Friday, four minutes after President Obama and his daughters leave the

White House, Omar Gonzalez climbs over the fence and makes his run.

The Secret Service totally flood the entire incident. The most basic task

they could not perform. That was to tackle this guy. The Secret Service

has a lot of explaining to do about the man who jumped the fence behind

me. Inside his car, located a few blocks from here, they say they

found 800 rounds of ammunition, two hatchets and a machete.

Turning to a new twist in the search for that young college student in

Virginia. Her parents have spoken out about what they call every

parent's nightmare. Last week, we showed you this surveillance tape.

You can see their daughter there and a short time later she seemingly

vanished. But the case has taken a new turn. Officials are focusing on

a new person of interest. We have this new image tonight.

Police, armed with another search warrant, went looking for evidence

against day at the home of this 32`year`old man, a hospital nursing

assistant they are desperate to talk with about the disappearance of Anna

Gray. Here he is in surveillance videos, just minutes before she last

text at friends one week ago on Saturday. Graham. They walk into

this bar. Apparently she had had plenty to drink that night. We want

to talk to him and talk about his interaction with this sweet, young

girl that we can't find. In a strange turn, he is now wanted for

reckless driving after an incident on Saturday at police headquarters.

He walked in, prepared to talk asked for a lawyer and left without

answering any police questions. Police charged him after they say he

dangerously sped away. Take a look. This is his car, seized Friday.

Police believe he and the missing student left together in it. Her

parents are beyond upset. All we want to do now is bring her home

safely. What a 1200 people, many students, searched the city high and

low. She was last seen walking down the street and there is still no

sign of her. As every day passes, they worry more.

There is still much more ahead tonight. Getting ads as this

evening. When it comes to those extending `` extended warranties,

we've all gone through the checkout when they ask if you want the extra

warranty. What we have found out is eye opening.

This evening, new information in a nationwide hunt for the cop killer.

So many schools closing tonight. For the first time, police say they are

closing in on the suspect. Accused of ambushing state troopers and

murdering a young father. Tonight, Pennsylvania families locking their

doors. Law enforcement is scouring dense

and Rocky Touraine with dogs and helicopters. `` rocky terrain.

Tonight, police say their efforts are paying off. I do believe we are

close at this point. Authorities following all leads, including the

discovery of this rifle and two AK`47 clips, they say left in the

woods by the 31`year`old accused of assassinating one state trooper and

wounding another. Please, continue to use common sense. This is a very

dangerous situation. Nearby schools remain closed. The man`hunt has

police scanners crackling. Police using the latest technology

in the search. Helicopters equipped with thermal cameras that detect

body heat, similar to the technologies used to detect one of

the alleged Boston bombers. This dark image in the back of the boat,

the 19`year`old. Where could he be? Local hunters wonder if he might be

able to evade law enforcement with a tool like this. If he is under this,

you are saying helicopters would be able to pick him up with thermal

imaging? If anything it would cut it down. Residents are told that once

and again `` once again they should remain vigilant, keeping doors and

windows locked, and their outdoor lights on through the night.

Thank you. Now to growing concern in the West

this evening. At least ten wildfires raging. To give you a sense of how

quickly they can grow, watch this. One fire exploding in size

overnight, now to more than 87,000 acres. New worries, threatening

winds are on the way. This is one of at least ten homes

completely destroyed by the fire. It is a mangled mess. This is all that

remains. Firefighters travelled as far away as Florida to battle be

stubborn flames. Smoke is seen here in timelapse, seen from up to 140

miles away. The fire is now at 90,000 acres, roughly the size of

Atalanta, Ponting firefighters to drop record amounts of water. Homes

and cars have been covered in powder. This is the man police

believe started the fire. He remains behind bars on $10 million bail.

Firefighters admit there have been problems in containing the fire but

they worry the winds will pick up and found the flames further. Thank

you. Now to the massive flooding. These images out of Texas tonight. A

car caught in the rushing water. The driver inside did not survive. But

chief meteorologist is here, tracking it all. Ginger, what

concerns you most? This is the tropical moisture left over. And

some new coming in, creating storms in the south`west. We have strong

storms in the south`east. That flooding there in south`east Mexico

yet again creating ongoing flash flood threats. Also the risk of

severe weather in eastern Colorado. Good news coming in for the West

Coast. Those fires we just spoke about, look at this. Early Wednesday

morning, parts of Washington state and Oracle and get the rain. ``

Oregon. Then Sacramento and further south could pick up up to one

quarter". And fall begins tonight. `` a quarter inch. Next, the

question about the expensive appliances and computers. Do you buy

the extra warranty in case something goes wrong or do you risk going

without it? Tonight, one family bought the warranty only to find out

something else. What if you pay hundreds of dollars

to buy an extended warranty on your kitchen appliances, only to find out

a critical piece isn't covered? The ice maker wasn't covered. With the

appliances at few weeks old, David found this company and said he

thought he was getting the same kind of protection his original

warranties gave him. You pay about $1000 into the warranty? They

finally said to me, the recent we haven't followed through is because

the ice maker isn't covered. Things like compressors and pulleys are

covered. Then the contract says ice maker controls are not covered. We

went to the CEO of the company. The reason you buy an insurance policy

is to make sure that when something does happen you are covered. The key

is to read. Make sure you go through every line. Why is the ice maker

excluded? It is a high`volume item that gets broken why people abusing

it. We have separate coverage for that. Antony urges readers to think

twice before buying an extended warranty. We aren't saying they may

never work out but on the whole you are much better off taking the money

that you would put into a service contract, put it in the bank. He

also says to check with your credit card company. Look to see if the

credit card you use to buy the product has the ability to extend

the manufacture's warranty. And his family got the ice maker fixed after

paying another $140. A message to you have for others? Read the fine

print. `` what message.

Good night. The past few weeks have been

relatively dry but there is some rain in
