:00:16. > :00:32.Tonight, crisis and Ferguson in the Surry. Multiple wounds after

:01:18. > :01:27.been there every night. He has the latest. Let us not forget that at
:01:28. > :01:31.the height of the unrest is what happened between these two people.
:01:32. > :01:35.This is a young police officer recognised for his excellent service
:01:36. > :01:46.and eat young black man that was about to start college. `` a young.
:01:47. > :01:52.Today, the National Guard is coming in. President Obama says
:01:53. > :01:54.that the troops do not make it worse. I will be there to assess
:01:55. > :01:58.whether this is helping rather than hindering. This is after grenades
:01:59. > :02:17.and `` tear gas. Molotov cocktails were
:02:18. > :02:26.thrown at police. They attempted to disperse the crowd. Police captain
:02:27. > :02:34.is beyond frustrated. The church gathering, he talks unless he was
:02:35. > :02:46.not the enemy. `` he told families. When this is over, I agree to go in
:02:47. > :02:56.my son 's room. The police have arrested 50 people. Most of the
:02:57. > :03:08.drama is unfolding. Results of the autopsy coming in. The preliminary
:03:09. > :03:20.autopsy shows at least six shots. It could be more. Brown was shot as he
:03:21. > :03:25.was facing the officer. The gun was at least one or two feet away. It
:03:26. > :03:30.could have been 30 feet away and it would have been the same thing. He
:03:31. > :03:40.was killed by the bullet that struck the top of his head. There is a
:03:41. > :03:48.curfew and families are bracing for the worst. A flight restriction
:03:49. > :03:54.remains in place. There are gunshots that were fired in the air. I want
:03:55. > :04:01.to go back to the news of the autopsy. It showed six shots. Six
:04:02. > :04:10.shots. The lawyers say that that is enough judges. The young man was six
:04:11. > :04:13.foot four. One of the shots at the top of the head and they say the
:04:14. > :04:19.only way that could have happened was that he was on the ground
:04:20. > :04:31.surrendering. Earlier today, Michael Brunt's mother spoke exclusively to
:04:32. > :04:34.the Good Morning America anchor. I know that you and the family have
:04:35. > :04:41.distanced yourself from the violence. That takes away from the
:04:42. > :04:54.investigation being focused on your son. How can they be restored? ``
:04:55. > :05:03.peace be. Justice. What is justice to you? In fair. I raised this man.
:05:04. > :05:14.I want to see him made accountable for his actions. What about
:05:15. > :05:20.accountability and motive? We see how the case could turn. Tonight, we
:05:21. > :05:23.are learning that the grand jury could see evidence as soon as
:05:24. > :05:28.Wednesday about what happened at the moment when Michael Brown and Darren
:05:29. > :05:33.Wilson came face to face. So much about the night is murky. What is
:05:34. > :05:40.not in dispute is that Brown was walking in the street. She was with
:05:41. > :05:43.a friend. The officer pulled up in his squad car. What happened next
:05:44. > :05:56.will be key as to whether Wilson will face jail time. There was a
:05:57. > :06:03.struggle over the officer's weapon. Police say that was and had bruises
:06:04. > :06:10.on his face. Witnesses have a different story. When he came up he
:06:11. > :06:15.said get the hell off the sidewalk. He was trying to get away and the
:06:16. > :06:19.cop was tried to pull him in. It is unclear what happened with the
:06:20. > :06:24.officer got out of the vehicle will stop some witnesses say that Brown
:06:25. > :06:30.was trying to get away. He stopped and he put his hands up. He was shot
:06:31. > :06:33.repeatedly. If Michael Brown was running away is supposed to
:06:34. > :06:41.confronting the officer, that makes a huge difference. It certainly
:06:42. > :06:47.does. It would be hard to see a justification is, as some of the
:06:48. > :06:52.witnesses say, he had his hands up. Officer Wilson is in hiding tonight.
:06:53. > 3:58:43It remains to be seen whether yes you defend his actions in a
3:58:44 > 3:58:43courtroom. `` he has to. To a story about Iraq. The battle of the most
3:58:44 > 3:58:43dangerous dam. Our correspondent heads there now. We went to the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43battlefield. We walked over a road that two days ago was under ISIS
3:58:44 > 3:58:43control. That is to be the front line. Not any more. Today with the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Brad Day `` today was a rare day of defeat.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43The control of the Mosul Dam was taken by Kurdish and Iraqi fighters.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43One of the leaders said they could not have taken it without American
3:58:44 > 3:58:43help. This is one of the airstrikes which helped Kurdish forces pushed
3:58:44 > 3:58:43back the fighters. They are now away from the roots and away from the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Mosul Dam. `` roads. The issue with the dam was that it could be used to
3:58:44 > 3:58:43flood Baghdad. Up to 500,000 could have been killed. We surveyed the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43field and there was smoke from airstrikes in the distance. It was
3:58:44 > 3:58:43also a deadly threat left behind. There were holes along the roadside
3:58:44 > 3:58:43where ISIS had implanted IEDs. It was a welcome victory against ISIS,
3:58:44 > 3:58:43but there is a long journey get ahead.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43At home, an emotional reunion for the American missionary battling a
3:58:44 > 3:58:43bowler in a hospital. She was reunited with her husband, who had
3:58:44 > 3:58:43also been under quarantine. They place their hands on opposite sides
3:58:44 > 3:58:43of the isolation room glass and pray together over the intercom. Both of
3:58:44 > 3:58:43them were moved to tears. She is said to be getting stronger every
3:58:44 > 3:58:43day. A familiar name back in the headlines. Julian Assange, the man
3:58:44 > 3:58:43behind the avalanche of leaks from government documents that became
3:58:44 > 3:58:43known as WikiLeaks. For more than two years, he has been in hiding,
3:58:44 > 3:58:43living in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, avoiding extradition. Today,
3:58:44 > 3:58:43pale after a life rarely in the sun, he indicated he may soon be
3:58:44 > 3:58:43ready to leave. A move that could mean arrest. Back here at home in
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Texas. A kind of high noon for Rick Perry, facing an indictment but
3:58:44 > 3:58:43defiant today. Our reporter gives us perspective on the showdown tonight.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43This jailhouse video of a drug Austin, Texas district attorney is
3:58:44 > 3:58:43the cornerstone of the Rick Perry defence against felony charges he
3:58:44 > 3:58:43abused his power and tried to coerce that DA, Rosemary Lindberg, to
3:58:44 > 3:58:43design, by trying to cut the integrity unit budget she controlled
3:58:44 > 3:58:43by $70 million. She was convicted and jailed for nearly a month.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Despite the embarrassment, Dee Why is a misdemeanour, allowing her to
3:58:44 > 3:58:43stay in office. The defence team played the tape again for reporters
3:58:44 > 3:58:43today. On radio late this afternoon, the governor vowed to expose what he
3:58:44 > 3:58:43called a farce. It involved the assistant to the special prosecutor,
3:58:44 > 3:58:43and the prosecutor himself, who are appointed offices. Rick Perry will
3:58:44 > 3:58:43surrender at the County jail, where he will be fingerprinted and have a
3:58:44 > 3:58:43mugshot taken like any other prisoner. He said he was just doing
3:58:44 > 3:58:43his job when he vetoed the money during the investigation into public
3:58:44 > 3:58:43money. Critics know that in his career, two other officials were
3:58:44 > 3:58:43arrested for Dee Why. I am here to defend the Governor `` DUI. He said
3:58:44 > 3:58:43he was leading an investigation into one of the Governor's pet issues.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43The special prosecutor contends it was that it that went beyond the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43line of hard`boiled politics, and ventured into criminal behaviour.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Next, a note about your money tonight. A shot of adrenaline into
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Wall Street, which was supercharged. The Dow Jones shot up 175 points.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43The NASDAQ hitting a 14 year high. That is thanks to the hope that the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43conflict in Ukraine could be easing. We go now to a startling robbery in
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Paris. The wealthy Saudi Prince, his motorcade ambushed by gunmen who
3:58:44 > 3:58:43made off with $300,000 in cash. Not your ordinary pocket money for a
3:58:44 > 3:58:43trip. Notorious for their opulence.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Expensive cars, fancy yachts, and palatial residences. The Saudi
3:58:44 > 3:58:43princes now targeted. The prince was driving in a convoy, leaving a
3:58:44 > 3:58:43luxury hotel in Paris. A gang of thieves in two BMWs, heavily armed,
3:58:44 > 3:58:43flashed their guns and forced a convoy to stop. They grabbed the car
3:58:44 > 3:58:43with all the money, taking more than $300,000 in cash as well as
3:58:44 > 3:58:43sensitive embassy documents. Then, driving off with it. For people who
3:58:44 > 3:58:43travel in cars like these, carrying large sums of money is not so crazy.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43One diplomatic source told me that Saudis often pay their staff in
3:58:44 > 3:58:43cash. Later on, police found a burnt out remains of the car. No one was
3:58:44 > 3:58:43hurt. For now, they are not saying which prince was targeted or what
3:58:44 > 3:58:43leads they have. Only that they suspected was work of recessional is
3:58:44 > 3:58:43and perhaps an inside job. `` professionals.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43A car on the highway engulfed in flames, how a truck driver saved him
3:58:44 > 3:58:43woman and child while others drove by. On the tape we are seeing off
3:58:44 > 3:58:43the first time of Robin Williams doing what he does best, helping a
3:58:44 > 3:58:43stranger to fight sadness with a smile.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Next, a stranger to the rescue. The quick thinking truck driver who
3:58:44 > 3:58:43jumped in to save a grandmother and baby girl trapped inside a burning
3:58:44 > 3:58:43car on the highway. Cover drive is steered around the smoke and flames,
3:58:44 > 3:58:43but one man ran towards them. `` other drivers.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43An inferno on the interstate. A Lincoln town car failing to yield
3:58:44 > 3:58:43while merging onto the freeway in Mississippi last week, losing
3:58:44 > 3:58:43control in 70 mile an hour traffic, colliding with an 18 wheeler,
3:58:44 > 3:58:43trapping the passengers inside a raging fire. It looked hopeless.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Trucker David Fredrikson captured the crash on his dash cam and
3:58:44 > 3:58:43immediately sprang into action. Aiming first at the trunk, he was
3:58:44 > 3:58:43able to calm the flames. I started to notice that there was a lady in
3:58:44 > 3:58:43the front seat, and she was kicking the door. I reached over and pulled
3:58:44 > 3:58:43the door open, and that is when I saw the one`year`old girl in the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43back seat. It was very smoky, so I went ahead it opened the door and
3:58:44 > 3:58:43grabbed her and handed her to my codriver. First, he carries the baby
3:58:44 > 3:58:43to safety, then are the good Samaritans joined the rescue. Watch
3:58:44 > 3:58:43the man in the white shirt taking the 51`year`old woman away. That
3:58:44 > 3:58:43fire so devastating that left nothing but charred metal behind.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43The driver of the 18 wheeler was devastated by the crash. It hits you
3:58:44 > 3:58:43that you are lucky to be here. Miraculously, police say the woman
3:58:44 > 3:58:43and toddler suffered only minor injuries. Fredrikson came to their
3:58:44 > 3:58:43aid two minutes before first responders arrived. Life saving
3:58:44 > 3:58:43time. We were glad to be there to assist so they could see tomorrow.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Thanks to a moment of courage. Tonight, a case of sticker shock for
3:58:44 > 3:58:43the American family. The new cost of raising a child Cory middle income
3:58:44 > 3:58:43family, more than $245,000 to the age of 18. A new government report
3:58:44 > 3:58:43shows it is up almost 2%. It includes food, housing, child care
3:58:44 > 3:58:43and education through high school. The report finds that the more
3:58:44 > 3:58:43children you have the cheaper the cost, because children can share
3:58:44 > 3:58:43clothing, toys and bedrooms. And, prove you never know what lies
3:58:44 > 3:58:43beneath. A close encounter for a jet ski off Iceland. He and his friend
3:58:44 > 3:58:43were speeding along, when suddenly in his path a spree of seawater and
3:58:44 > 3:58:43a dark blob. A humpback whale. The two friends were not hurt, and
3:58:44 > 3:58:43neither was the whale. A special tribute for one of our own. At the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43White House press conference, the President saved the best till last.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43In this case, someone who has been the heart and soul at ABC News. I'm
3:58:44 > 3:58:43going to take the last question from somebody who after 41 years has
3:58:44 > 3:58:43decided to retire. And Compton, everybody here knows is not only the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43consummate professional, but is also a pleasure to get to know. We will
3:58:44 > 3:58:43miss you. Finally tonight, a week ago all of us learned about the
3:58:44 > 3:58:43death of Robin Williams. Tonight, we have a newly released tape, proving
3:58:44 > 3:58:43that he was the kind of man who tried to keep the music playing for
3:58:44 > 3:58:43others no matter the suffering in his own heart.
3:58:44 > 3:58:43In the movie Patch Adams, his character used humour to treat
3:58:44 > 3:58:43patients. Full Robin Williams, it was more than just a roll, it was a
3:58:44 > 3:58:43way of life. He was well publicised that he gave his time and talent to
3:58:44 > 3:58:43service men and women, that only a few new like moments like this. Hi
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Vyvyan, it is Robin Williams, saying hey there, what is going on in New
3:58:44 > 3:58:43Zealand? The family of a 21`year`old woman in a hospital in New Zealand,
3:58:44 > 3:58:43is coming forward that back in March, Robin Williams fulfilled one
3:58:44 > 3:58:43of her dying wishes. Sending all my love to you, Jack and Sophie, mark
3:58:44 > 3:58:43this off your bucket list. They will never forget. He said, I am here to
3:58:44 > 3:58:43you, and they do this comedy thing so I can do my day job, which is
3:58:44 > 3:58:43making people feel better. He was diagnosed with an aggressive
3:58:44 > 3:58:43cancer. When he reached out to Robin Williams for autographed memorabilia
3:58:44 > 3:58:43for fundraising, he did that and then some. I wish there was a way to
3:58:44 > 3:58:43be there for him when he needed folks. Through one of the charitable
3:58:44 > 3:58:43causes he worked with for more than 25 years, he was able to grant
3:58:44 > 3:58:43dozens of wishes. Much loved to you, baby. For abused `` many people, he
3:58:44 > 3:58:44did only give them laughs, he gave them comfort.
