Westminster. Time now for a look at the news as

:00:00.:00:00.

seen across the United States a couple of hours ago, in ABC World

:00:00.:00:09.

News with David Muir. Welcome. The major developments in

:00:10.:00:15.

the deadly rampage coming at the Santa Barbara shootings. What we're

:00:16.:00:19.

learning about the alleged shooter and you race to stop him when they

:00:20.:00:23.

heard that the shootings had begun. The gunmen's own words, what he

:00:24.:00:29.

wrote about the day officers came to his apartment and did not look

:00:30.:00:33.

inside. A massive mudslide in Colorado, four miles wide, 250 feet

:00:34.:00:42.

each. Rescues in Florida tonight, more than 400 rescues today alone. A

:00:43.:00:47.

mad dash for cash in one American city, hidden on every corner, yours

:00:48.:00:52.

if you can find it. If your city next? Remembering those who have

:00:53.:01:00.

served our country, those we lost and the wife who never gave up. Good

:01:01.:01:19.

evening. Diane will be back tomorrow night. The powerful and poignant

:01:20.:01:24.

scenes from across the country in a moment. The fast`moving developments

:01:25.:01:28.

in California. We now know that the family of this young man, many of

:01:29.:01:35.

them have received copies of his manifesto hours before the shooting

:01:36.:01:39.

began. His mother received notification that something was

:01:40.:01:42.

wrong and she rushed to her car, calling police on the way. Things

:01:43.:01:50.

removed from the suspect 's home, how he described the visit from an

:01:51.:01:58.

enforcement just last week and how he was relieved that they did not

:01:59.:02:05.

come through the door. I am outside a deli where students had to duck

:02:06.:02:08.

for cover and this is the growing memorial that is out here. We are

:02:09.:02:12.

hearing more about the chilling manifesto that you mentioned. Elliot

:02:13.:02:20.

Rodgers sent it to many healthcare professionals and his family,

:02:21.:02:23.

including his own mother. I will punish all of you for it. His deadly

:02:24.:02:32.

plan was already in motion at 9:17pm on Friday when his mother's phone

:02:33.:02:38.

rang. It was the shooter's therapist asking if she had read the e`mail

:02:39.:02:43.

from her son, a copy of his manifesto, 141 pages from his

:02:44.:02:50.

tortured mind. Childhood memories, painful teenage years and an

:02:51.:02:55.

elaborate plot to kill. Alarms, she checked her son's YouTube channel.

:02:56.:03:02.

This is my last video, it all has to come to this. Immediately, she

:03:03.:03:07.

called her ex`husband and they braced to Santa Barbara, calling

:03:08.:03:14.

police, what it is too late. The first reports of a mass shooting are

:03:15.:03:22.

under way. The first target, a sorority, revenge against all the

:03:23.:03:27.

girls whom he says rejected him. They have all rejected me and looked

:03:28.:03:34.

out upon me as an inferior man. He bangs on the door and when no one

:03:35.:03:37.

answers, he shoots three women across the street, killing two of

:03:38.:03:45.

them. His rampage continues. He opened fire at this deli filled with

:03:46.:03:48.

students. Surveillance video shows people ducking for cover. There was

:03:49.:03:54.

glass flying and I got on the ground and looked over and I saw the

:03:55.:04:01.

victim. The minutes that follow are filled with carnage. He drove on,

:04:02.:04:10.

gunning down bikers and shooting indiscriminately at pedestrians. He

:04:11.:04:14.

looked directly at me, he talked to me and shot at me multiple times and

:04:15.:04:22.

somehow, he didn't hit me. He was in a fight with police and then drove

:04:23.:04:28.

away and crashes his BMW, turning the gun on himself. So much violence

:04:29.:04:36.

in just ten minutes, in all, 12 different crime scenes and three

:04:37.:04:41.

shot dead. At his apartment, police still had one more grisly discovery

:04:42.:04:46.

to make, his two roommates and one of their friends stabbed to death.

:04:47.:04:51.

We now know that he had three guns in his possession and 400 rounds of

:04:52.:04:57.

ammunition. He obtained all of them legally. In that manifesto, he also

:04:58.:05:03.

described in vivid detail, the day police came to his apartment after

:05:04.:05:07.

being alerted by his family. They did not have a search warrant, this

:05:08.:05:11.

was a welfare check and they did not get past the front door. Tonight,

:05:12.:05:22.

students must now say final goodbyes to this young woman, a painter about

:05:23.:05:26.

to graduate with a degree in art history. This young woman was just

:05:27.:05:31.

ending her first year of college and this young man was studying computer

:05:32.:05:34.

engineering along with this young man who also worked as a camp

:05:35.:05:40.

counselor. This young man left playing basketball and this young

:05:41.:05:45.

man planned on going to law school. Inside hindsight, Elise, families

:05:46.:05:51.

and friends are left with pieces of a puzzle that no one put together in

:05:52.:05:59.

time `` police. Tonight, we have learned of one therapist who

:06:00.:06:02.

received his manifesto and called police as soon as it was right but

:06:03.:06:07.

by then, the massacre was over. Mental health professionals have a

:06:08.:06:11.

duty to warn police if someone threatens violence against

:06:12.:06:13.

themselves or others. Just weeks before the shooting, his parents

:06:14.:06:18.

made the call alarmed over videos like these. Girls are not sexually

:06:19.:06:25.

attracted to me, that's a problem that I intend to rectify. Deputies

:06:26.:06:33.

went to his apartment but found him polite and had no reason to take

:06:34.:06:38.

action. But did the manifesto, he gloats that he fooled them and wrote

:06:39.:06:46.

the following. Those missed opportunities, now magnifying a

:06:47.:06:50.

family's pain. We're trying to understand why my son died and try

:06:51.:06:59.

to make it mean something because otherwise, it just seems so hard. So

:07:00.:07:07.

much grief and sorrow around this campus and tomorrow the university

:07:08.:07:10.

has canceled all classes, declaring it a day of mourning and

:07:11.:07:16.

reflection. Now to the other developing story, the weather as

:07:17.:07:22.

millions drive back home after a long weekend. A huge part of Texas

:07:23.:07:25.

is watching the skies due to tornadoes, we are already getting

:07:26.:07:32.

pictures in at this hour of heavy rains and damage with trees down

:07:33.:07:40.

well into the evening. In Colorado, there is hail with people wiping off

:07:41.:07:42.

their windshields before being able to drive home. A massive mudslide

:07:43.:07:50.

occurred outside of Denver, four miles long, and this evening, they

:07:51.:07:57.

are searching for the missing. The images of this remote quarter of

:07:58.:07:59.

Colorado tonight honey simply incredible, the earth giving way, a

:08:00.:08:05.

massive hole in its place, a wall of mud believed to have swept three men

:08:06.:08:14.

away. The crater is estimated to be 250 feet deep tummy with debris

:08:15.:08:23.

sliding over four miles and it has people comparing it to another

:08:24.:08:29.

landslide that took place earlier this year in Washington state. We

:08:30.:08:36.

are measuring this in terms of miles. Luckily no homes were within

:08:37.:08:41.

the path of destruction. This is a photo before and another one taken

:08:42.:08:47.

after. As far as cleanup goes, this is the new terrain of that mountain.

:08:48.:08:50.

It will make the search for the missing that much harder.

:08:51.:09:01.

have been pulled from the water this holiday weekend alone in Florida

:09:02.:09:09.

because of dangerous currents. The unofficial opening of summer and

:09:10.:09:13.

still, you can see just how packed these features are. Up and down this

:09:14.:09:18.

coast all day today were dangerous rips. The red flags went up. Rips

:09:19.:09:28.

were non`existent couple of days ago. Now we are up to a red flag and

:09:29.:09:34.

we have had a couple of hundred rescues. Today, more than 120 people

:09:35.:09:40.

were rescued from this beach alone. And up and down the coast were

:09:41.:09:45.

dozens more. Rips are small channels that poor water from the shore are

:09:46.:09:53.

back out to sea. Watch as this highlights that invisible currents.

:09:54.:09:59.

Don't panic. It's the wrong thing to do. If you are caught in a rip, your

:10:00.:10:06.

instinct is to swim directly out to shore. But that is exactly what you

:10:07.:10:12.

should not do. Swim horizontal to the shoreline to get out of the rip.

:10:13.:10:21.

You have got to swim parallel to the beach to get out of a rip current.

:10:22.:10:27.

And stay close to the lifeguard towers. In Florida, rips are bigger

:10:28.:10:32.

killers than tornadoes, hurricanes and sharks combined. One more

:10:33.:10:39.

weather picture tonight. It looks like a typical Memorial day. But

:10:40.:10:44.

they are staying out of the water with good reason. Some of the great

:10:45.:10:50.

Lakes are still frozen after that winter to remember. Overseas, now.

:10:51.:11:02.

Hope Frances prayed at the Western Wall. `` Pope Francis. The story of

:11:03.:11:07.

two walls and one very symbolic message. At the Western Wall, the

:11:08.:11:16.

most sacred site in the world for Jews, Pope Francis parade, and like

:11:17.:11:21.

so many before, he stuck a note between the stones. This moment, in

:11:22.:11:30.

stark contrast. The wall that separates Israelis and Palestinians.

:11:31.:11:36.

A gesture of solidarity that infuriated many Israelis. Today,

:11:37.:11:41.

Benjamin Netanyahu pointedly took the Pope to a memorial for victims

:11:42.:11:45.

of terrorism and blamed the Palestinians for the ceaseless

:11:46.:11:51.

tellings. At the Holocaust Memorial, another striking image in a visit

:11:52.:11:57.

filled with powerful symbolism. Pope Francis kissing the hands of

:11:58.:12:02.

Holocaust survivors, reversing the Catholic edition of the kissing of

:12:03.:12:07.

the Pope's ring. Never again, he said. The final image of a warm

:12:08.:12:15.

farewell at the airport. With Pope Francis back in the Vatican tonight,

:12:16.:12:18.

he has left behind him a legacy of unforgettable moment and

:12:19.:12:28.

controversy. Elsewhere, perhaps the fiercest fighting yet in Ukraine

:12:29.:12:30.

between troops and pro`Russian rubles, this time at the airport in

:12:31.:12:41.

Donetsk. `` pro`Russian rebels. And a stunning headline from Nigeria

:12:42.:12:48.

tonight. The Nigerian military now says they know exactly where the

:12:49.:12:52.

missing schoolgirls are. They are being held by the terrorist group

:12:53.:12:57.

Boko Haram. They do not want to use force to free them because they

:12:58.:13:00.

believe the schoolgirls are in too much danger. Back at home and to

:13:01.:13:16.

Memorial Day today. Today, President Obama laid a wreath at the Tomb of

:13:17.:13:27.

the Unknown Soldier. Missing soldier Joseph Gant served in the Korean

:13:28.:13:30.

War. His wife waited for him for 60 years. He had been missing. But she

:13:31.:13:40.

was there to welcome his remains when they were finally repatriated.

:13:41.:13:45.

She was there again today, waving to the crowd. Across this country, the

:13:46.:13:54.

American spirit. A widow in Arizona whose husband served in World War

:13:55.:13:59.

II. A woman whose son served in Afghanistan. And the children across

:14:00.:14:04.

this nation today with their signs saying thank you. In Fort Worth,

:14:05.:14:11.

Texas, a seven`year`old Cub Scout places flowers, moving his

:14:12.:14:16.

grandfather to tears. His grandfather is a Vietnam veteran. So

:14:17.:14:21.

many people giving their lives for our country. This photo from

:14:22.:14:30.

Washington State. So many others on Facebook. Being welcomed home after

:14:31.:14:36.

a nine`month deployment in Afghanistan. And just look at their

:14:37.:14:44.

two children giddy with joy. We just love seeing those pictures. Still

:14:45.:14:52.

more to come on Memorial Day. Look at these people all finding money.

:14:53.:14:56.

Tonight, the man who is giving more of it away. What is behind this

:14:57.:15:01.

idea? Is he coming to a city near you?

:15:02.:16:14.

We were a little bit sceptical today. But these people will tell

:16:15.:16:21.

you it's the real deal. Across San Francisco, ordinary people are on

:16:22.:16:27.

the hunt for money. Who has put it there? We tracked him down. San

:16:28.:16:40.

Francisco is on a treasure hunt. A mysterious millionaire has placed

:16:41.:16:49.

hundreds of dollars around the city and has been issuing clues on

:16:50.:16:56.

Twitter. My hands were shaking. Treasure hunters await every new

:16:57.:17:03.

clue. But who is this Robin Hood spreading the wealth in this, the

:17:04.:17:07.

most economically divided city in the country? How did you make your

:17:08.:17:18.

money? How well the are you? `` wealthy. And he plans to remain

:17:19.:17:22.

anonymous. Are you making a point here? Like that anonymous restaurant

:17:23.:17:37.

who has left $130,000 in gratuities across the country, this seems too

:17:38.:17:42.

good to be true. How much will you give away? He will splash the cash

:17:43.:17:49.

in Los Angeles this weekend but beyond that, not even he knows where

:17:50.:17:53.

or when. This mysterious millionaire told me he is just flying by the

:17:54.:18:06.

seat of his pants. Now to a story of heroism on the battlefield. We put

:18:07.:18:16.

together a new documentary about reporting on Afghanistan, making

:18:17.:18:18.

sure our troops have someone telling their story. Two years covering the

:18:19.:18:24.

front line of America's longest war. My son and I had one mission,

:18:25.:18:37.

to tell their story in our new film documenting their determination.

:18:38.:18:44.

They were not going to let him die. Their absolute heroism. Like this

:18:45.:18:53.

medic, who in 2011, ran into a wall of gunfire to save his injured

:18:54.:18:57.

friends and an Afghan soldier. Before he died... He was bleeding

:18:58.:19:11.

out and apologised for dying. Five more soldiers from the battalion

:19:12.:19:16.

would die that day, one of the deadliest in the war. Afterwards,

:19:17.:19:22.

the cost of their sacrifice hit home. Especially for Sergeant Major

:19:23.:19:29.

Chris Fields, who waited until his men had left to let the tears of

:19:30.:19:36.

this war come out. He is now home. For him, like so many, the road

:19:37.:19:42.

between war and peace is difficult to travel. There is not a moment

:19:43.:19:54.

that goes by that my memory of that... So much sacrifice.

:19:55.:20:10.

And a special edition tonight on that war. Thank you. The weather has

:20:11.:20:32.

been very changeable this bank

:20:33.:20:33.
