Mike Embley is here in under half an hour. Time now for a look at the | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
news as seen across the United States a couple of hours ago, in ABC | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
World News with Dianne Sawyer. Welcome. Rating news, and American | :00:07. | :00:15. | |
apparently executed by ISIS `` breaking news. A searing video and | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
challenge to the United States. Our correspondent studying each frame. | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
At home, monsoon rain unleashes floods and a heroic rescue effort as | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
a woman is pulled to safety with the water rushing over her car. And, one | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
lesson in hope and believing in yourself. What is this coat said to | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
his losing team that has everyone cheering tonight. | :00:41. | :00:53. | |
Good evening to you on Tuesday. Rating news, today, a brutal video | :00:54. | :01:00. | |
surfaced apparently showing an American journalist, a man from New | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
Hampshire, executed, beheaded by members of ISIS `` breaking news. | :01:04. | :01:10. | |
The images are too graphic to show an details are coming in. Our | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
correspondent has the latest. He has seen the video. It is a chilling | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
video and something no one will want to see. US authorities are studying | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
the video posted late in the day. A White House spokesperson said that | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
if it is genuine they are appalled by the brutal murder of an innocent | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
journalist. It appears to show the journalist James Foley on his knees | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
with his executioner next to him, holding a knife. Foley disappeared | :01:37. | :01:45. | |
about 21 months ago, in 2012, while on assignment. He was brave and | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
daring, and was earlier held captive in Libya before heading to Syria to | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
report on the brutality of the Syrian government. In the chilling | :01:54. | :02:01. | |
video, he is forced to make a statement on the American bombing of | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
Iraqi and then his executioner, speaking in English, with a British | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
accent, addresses President Obama saying, the attacks by the US air | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
force had resulted in the bloodshed of your people. The video shows the | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
beheading of Foley, a disturbing scene. | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
This is an apparent video that we are still checking on to ensure this | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
is what it seems. As you say, apparently a retaliation for the | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
bombing. That colleagues hold out some hope this is a fabrication. `` | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
that is right. This is a mutant strain of violence from ISIS. I want | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
to bring in our correspondent who is on the ground in Iraq. | :02:46. | :02:53. | |
The people of Iraq and Syria have long known how brutal ISIS is and | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
their goal has been to take this part of the world back to a level of | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
savagery not seen since the Middle Ages. It is a way to declare who | :03:02. | :03:10. | |
they are and how extreme jihadis they are. Defeating them will take a | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
tremendous amount of effort. This is not a shadowy group of hijackers, it | :03:15. | :03:22. | |
is well organised, well funded and well armed, stretching over two | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
countries and governing a great deal of territory. They have the loyalty | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
of many, many disenchanted Sunni Muslims and so defeating them will | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
be a long`term project that will take a global effort, frankly. Thank | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
you. We will keep you up`to`date on the authenticity of the video and | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
also on what the response could be. We sure to check with us online. We | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
move on next to the dangerous weather in the west, Phoenix | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
underwater, highways flooded, families start, homes and cars no | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
match for the water. Our meteorologist on the rescue is | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
unfolding at this hour. `` rescues. Waving a sheet, | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
desperate for help. Two people trapped in this home. Watch, the | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
water climbs the walls, already off its foundation, the only thing | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
keeping this house from washing away, that tree. One rescuer | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
dangling from a chopper, landing on the roof, with the water receding so | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
quickly that rescuers could walk the people and their dog out safely. | :04:36. | :04:47. | |
Dangerous scenes I'm falling over the valley. One helicopter landing | :04:48. | :04:58. | |
next to the turbulent water. At least one dozen rescues. `` | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
unfolding. Five inches of rain in just hours. That swell of brown | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
water on highways, rushing toward and cutting off traffic. You can | :05:10. | :05:19. | |
hear it ploughing through. Erupting from a manhole. Even after the rain | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
stops falling, the run of forces floods for hours with inches of my | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
dictating the roads. Rain is falling tonight, look at the flashlight. `` | :05:30. | :05:37. | |
inches of rain taking the roads. Those go through this evening. Look | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
at this, head of the storms comes wind and the gusts rings dust | :05:41. | :05:47. | |
visibility at this regional part down to zero, shutting it down for a | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
time. Finally, thunderstorms already reported in south`east Michigan all | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
the way down to it Kentucky. Here it comes. Thank you. As you know, a | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
wildfire tears across parched earth 60 miles from a national treasure `` | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
16. You Samiti national park. Families and tourists are on the | :06:10. | :06:19. | |
move. Overnight, flames ripped through here so hot and fast that | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
1000 people were ordered to get out with almost no warning. My wife | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
happened to look out on the front of the house and there it is the | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
cloud, towering above us. Hotels evacuated and tourists left on the | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
street with their luggage. In many cases, walking to safety. This | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
family were sleeping in a hotel lobby. There is no plan for this. | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
Firefighters retreated for a short time overnight as this propane tank | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
storage company called fine, raising fears of a massive blast, with a | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
building lost, but the tanks stable. We are getting evacuated. This | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
family still inside the zone are now packing up. They are worried they | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
mightn't have anything to return to stop work the major thing is getting | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
out safe but I hate to leave everything behind. This is | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
everything. Local officials say they have been lucky so far, though they | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
aren't taking chances. Hopefully they can stop it, because if they | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
can't, this will all go. They lost eight structures, look at how hot it | :07:30. | :07:37. | |
was. Aluminium from this car's wheel melted like spilt drink. Today, they | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
believe they have a handle on this one. | :07:41. | :07:47. | |
We hope so. Thank you. We turn to Ferguson, misery, where Michael | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
Brown was gunned down in broad daylight and no one knows what the | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
policeman says about why. We hear from someone close to the officer | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
who is in hiding as the city braces for new protesting, violence and | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
another police shooting has taken place. Our correspondent is there. | :08:04. | :08:14. | |
With emotions on age, `` Edge, new and rest as protesters gather after | :08:15. | :08:22. | |
police shot and killed a 23`year`old African`American man. It is crazy. | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
Police said a man was a robbery suspect, screaming and waving a | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
knife. We can all understand what is going on. Every police officer out | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
here has a right to defend themselves and the community. The | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
national guard is on the streets after a night that saw the most | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
arrests since unarmed teenager Michael Brown was shot by Darren | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
Wilson. Protesters and police again go head to head. This stark image, | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
an intense flame after an officer fires teargas into a crowd and a | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
woman helping one man who couldn't open his eyes after he was gassed. A | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
small army in riot gear pushing protesters forward. Jail records | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
reveal 78 people were arrested last night, twice the number reported. | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
Police blamed outsiders. In the unrest. Only four arrested were from | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
Ferguson, most from the area and 18 were from other states. Including | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
New York, California and Illinois. People are waiting with teargas in | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
the area, looted stores, rubber bullets on the ground, it makes them | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
upset and angry. We learn more tonight about the officer, his good | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
friend speaks out. I can tell he is struggling. This is hard on him. His | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
friend is so concerned for his own safety that he asked us to conceal | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
his face. He is a good person and people have immediately jumped to | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
label him as a cold`blooded murderer. Wilson has already spoken | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
with investigators and the grand jury will hear evidence tomorrow. | :10:02. | :10:11. | |
Now to the news of a possible school attack in California thwarted by | :10:12. | :10:20. | |
some watchful people. Two teenagers accused of plotting an attack on | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
teachers and classmates, and quick thinking school officials may have | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
saved lives. Police say it was a plan to kill as | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
many people at their southern California high school as possible. | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
There were no specific types of victims they were thinking of, they | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
just wanted to kill people. Plan carefully crafted by two extend and | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
17`year`old male students. Just days before the new school year started, | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
police thwarted the plan, arresting the two boys on Monday after an | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
anonymous person came forward to report the plot. I am convinced that | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
we averted a mass murder. Police say a search of the team, teenagers' | :11:01. | :11:12. | |
computers showed evidence of research. A research things like | :11:13. | :11:21. | |
guns, knives, bullet`proof vests. It ended right here at South Pasadena | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
high school, where police say the teenagers were prepared to die. How | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
would you characterise their demeanour with police? Their | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
demeanour was such that it was monotone, matter of fact, they were | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
talking about killing people. It was very chilling. Earlier this year in | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
Minnesota, police say they averted a fit a new Roald's plot to kill his | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
family and bomb his school. That time, too, someone came forward to | :11:49. | :11:57. | |
warn people. I can't emphasise enough how that one phone call to us | :11:58. | :12:06. | |
got the ball rolling. I am just excited to go back and be with my | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
friend. While they are awaiting charges, their classmates will be | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
back at school on Friday. Tonight, a surprising headline that | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
might change the way you think about your car parked in the driveway. We | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
have a new ranking of cars targeted by thieves across the country. At | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
the top of the list, not a flashy sports car but your family car. Why? | :12:29. | :12:39. | |
In the movies and on TV it is always cool cars that are gone in 60 | :12:40. | :12:47. | |
seconds. But in real life, the thief favourites are not smoking hot. The | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
most stolen cars of last year, the Honda accord, Honda Civic, Ford F | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
series, and Toyota Camry. Preferably from the 90s. Older models often | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
don't have the same security features new luxury models do. There | :13:03. | :13:13. | |
is a Toyota. Something as small as a cracked window makes a thief's job | :13:14. | :13:20. | |
much easier. I can get it out of its track by rocking back and forth. I | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
can reach in and unlock it. So, what do you need to know to make sure | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
guys like Steve don't drive off in your car? Experts say the age`old | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
advice is still the best. Parked in a well lit, busy area, fully lock | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
all doors, windows and sunroof. And, don't leave your keys in the car. | :13:41. | :13:47. | |
Up next, real money. We want to take a last minute by vacation perhaps, | :13:48. | :14:00. | |
practically for free? We have an undercover mission that can do it by | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
the beach. And, a little league coach with a pep talk for everyone | :14:06. | :14:06. | |
watching tonight. Next, our real money team is back to | :14:07. | :14:51. | |
help you plan a last`minute summer vacation and save hundreds of | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
dollars. Families booking trips in the final two weeks before Labour | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
Day. Did you know you can accept a kind of spy mission and relax at the | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
same time? We will show you how to put money in your pocket. | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
Rebecca, Mike and pharaonic are about to go on summer vacation | :15:11. | :15:17. | |
practically for free. How? They are mystery shoppers. As many as 1 | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
million of them in America right now, sent in by companies to make | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
sure everything is running smoothly. If there wasn't mystery shopping, I | :15:28. | :15:29. | |
don't know how I would pay full price for these things. Free | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
newspapers, 24`hour business and fitness centres, they all checkout. | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
But the pillows in the lobby, Nessie. And, there is sand all over | :15:38. | :15:45. | |
the carpet steps. Everything gets documented on this score sheet. What | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
would you say about this experience so far? I would say the service is | :15:50. | :15:56. | |
friendly, maybe a little slow. Upstairs, the ice machine looks | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
good, but the vending machine is out of order. Inside... That is where | :16:00. | :16:08. | |
Rebecca finds a tiny stain. In the bathroom, testing their hairdryer. | :16:09. | :16:15. | |
In the end, they give the Hotel a thumbs up. They say they will do | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
about 150 mystery shops this year, saving their family about $5,000 in | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
expenses they would have bought anyway. David Lipton, president of a | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
mystery shopping company, says to be wary of companies asking you to pay | :16:30. | :16:37. | |
their money upfront. The most successful mystery shoppers are | :16:38. | :16:39. | |
people who are reliable and responsible and have a key`detailed. | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
Back on the beach, they are all done digging up another mystery shop. | :16:47. | :16:56. | |
Trending topics tonight. A new ranking of the cities that get the | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
most and least sleep. Melbourne, Australia, apparently gets the most | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
sleep. The only American city that comes close is Orlando with six | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
hours and 56 minutes. And the most sleep deprived city we know about | :17:14. | :17:22. | |
his Tokyo. A man whose voice was like a starting gun for an American | :17:23. | :17:33. | |
tradition. Don, and his percussive arrah tone, introducing the first | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
episode of Saturday Night Live in 1975. And for nearly 40 years that | :17:38. | :17:45. | |
followed. He started in radio, worked on other shows, he was 96. | :17:46. | :17:54. | |
And a shock tonight for fans of Katy Perry, Rihanna and Coldplay. All | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
three are reportedly on the shortlist for the half`time show at | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
the Super Bowl. Talk about a trick play. Word tonight the NFL is | :18:02. | :18:08. | |
reportedly asking them to pay to get the gig to kick in a portion of | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
profits from their tours after the Super Bowl. The NFL already post | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
billions of dollars in revenue every year. | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
Finally, rising from defeat. Last night, the Little League team from | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
Rhode Island suffered a heartbreaking loss to Chicago at the | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
World Series. But through their tears comes a lesson for everyone | :18:30. | :18:37. | |
about new hope for a new day. Two ways they've told his Little | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
League team to think about baseball this week. One was about how to win. | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
Saturday, when they were down by two, going into the bottom of the | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
last innings in an elimination game, and he gave his boys this | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
talk. We are putting three on the board, we are not going to go down | :18:56. | :19:02. | |
without fighting. Here is what his players gave their coach. An | :19:03. | :19:12. | |
explosion. And, the wind. Then, on Monday, against another team, strike | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
three. They lost this time, out of the series. When the coach noticed | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
some of the boys crying, he found something to say about how to lose. | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
I have got to see your eyes. With your head up. There is no | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
disappointment for your effort, OK? In the whole tournament, the whole | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
season, it has been an incredible journey. And with remembering how | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
much did work. We got down to we are one of the best teams in the world. | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
And recognising what they did when. You guys have to bring back | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
something that no other team can provide but you guys. That is pride. | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
OK? Pride. Their final huddle ended with a lesson that sometimes it is | :20:00. | :20:01. | |
how you play the game. You can watch the Little League | :20:02. | :20:13. | |
World Series on our part and network, ESPN. I will see you | :20:14. | :20:15. | |
tomorrow night. `` partner. It looks like Wednesday for many of | :20:16. | :20:32. | |
you will be not only a reasonably sunny day but a mostly dry one as | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
well. The wind is a bit lighter, with a chilly start. In most towns | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
and city centres, we are looking at temperatures around double figures. | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
Get yourself away from there, and a very cold | :20:47. | :20:47. |
