migrant charged in the rape of a 13-year-old girl. they set a trap for this guy. moments ago this is the mug shot that we've been awaiting and now we await for the news today and that will be an appearance in court. good morning, everybody. dana has the day off today. i'm bill hemmer in new york. >> why i'm sitting here. great to be here back for day two. i'm martha maccallum. this is "america's newsroom." this group of neighbors basically knew the bodega where they expected he would return as they did. they stopped him as soon as he came out and held him down between two vehicles until the police arrived. the "new york post" calling it a town haul. authorities are looking for him since thursday. that is the day that the police believe that this man went into a park, found a 13-year-old girl hanging out with her friend, had a machete that he says he found, held them at knife point, raped this poor young girl in broad daylight and the nypd are now praising these neighbors for the action and the courage that they showed. >> the community, we put the picture out. tips started coming in. when you think about these kids, how courageous they were to help us to give a sketch artist. the whole city said no, the community stepped in, they made it -- they tried a little street justice and we made the apprehension. the city needs this. we had -- >> bill: might be more street justice around here. new york. thousands of miles away near san diego a crisis that shows no signs of stopping. fox cameras capturing another surge of chinese migrants crossing into california, border agents arresting one of them identified as a murder suspect back home. >> martha: earlier this month the president announced executive actions on the border. they don't seem to be having a lot of effect. he says numbers are down but they're still very high. 42,000 illegal crossings since that crackdown began. team fox coverage. bill melugin at the california border. let's start this morning in new york with eric shawn. good morning, eric. >> good morning. well, he should not have been here in the first place. the illegal migrant charged with raping a 13-year-old girl at a new york city park. he reportedly was set to be deported and ordered to be gone but never was. immigration judge in new york city ordered the man to leave our country on february 2, 2022. he crossed the southern border in texas illegally back in 2021. authorities say he had minor runins with the police in texas and new york. now faces the charge are include rape, sexual assault and kidnapping. he pulled a machete on the teens in a park in queens and raped the 13-year-old girl. residents did recognize him from the wanted posters. you can see in the video there was a struggle as they pounced him and on the sidewalk and kept him and held him for the cops to arrive. angela she is the one that called 911. >> we were trying to hold onto him. it got to a point where we had to handcuff his ankles. he was hiding under the car like a cat. it was me and jeffrey screaming like oh, we found the person, the rapist. >> former president trump blamed the biden administration immigration policies for allowing the man into the country and remaining here. he told fox digital i grew up right near there. something like this was unthinkable years ago. like to pay my highest respect and love to the parents and family members. this tragedy should never have happened. we asked the department of homeland security for comment on the man. we haven't heard back. he will be in court for arraignment later this morning. >> bill: paul mauro is with us in studio. this is a neighborhood. it's a nice park. all kinds of things around that area. the mets play baseball there, the u.s. open. trump grew up near there and you played baseball there, too. >> i did as a kid. not at the nicest baseball park in queens when i was a kid. nice bucolic area inside the city and a terrible thing. kudos to everybody who got this done. to advance the story a little bit. they would have gotten to the scene, god bless these two kids. brave kids who gave a great description. our hearts go out to this little girl. her information led to something interesting here you don't see often. the sketch. the sketch ended up being key here. from this sketch they got to the video according to the reporting right from the police department. there is a sketch artist who is the unsung hero. the description that the two kids gave. i can tell you the police department pulled out all stops on this. pulled all resources in. everybody wanted this one done. they got at the scene a water bottle and shoelaces. those will be part of the slam dunk here. they would have dnaed that is already submitted. he remains the accused. not convicted. innocent until proven guilty. the evidence looks strong and looks like everything was done right. the public stepped up when you needed to. thank god they got him quickly. think about something else. he took the two phones, right? the phones are locked these days. you have to know where to fence those. that argues something we've seen previously in migrant crime in new york city. there is a market to sell these phones so that they can be jail broken and forced into so you can extract the information. that is getting done according to the previous reporting on another ring in venezuela. now i know he is not venezuelan. nonetheless a lot of communication among those who do this kind of stuff. you have to get into those phones otherwise if you can't they are just a brick and throw them away. he knew enough to take the phones and knew enough to turn them off. one of the things the cops would have done right away is ping those phones to try to figure out where he is. >> martha: this is a $10,000 reward. i talked to the woman yesterday and she said these folks rightfully so said we want the reward. it made me wonder how powerful are these rewards and should they be higher and publicizing them more? people do deserve the reward. >> the police department has a number of programs where if you report a tip that pans out for a gun, etc. , you get a reward. the rewards do work. generally you see a reward in a case like this when the police make it quick. it was a mature institutional decision by the pd. they said we've had hit a wall here. most importantly we won't get this guy right away. it was over the weekend. put out everything we have to the public. warn the public this guy is dangerous. remember something, sex crime perpetrators tend to be habitual. they have a predilection. that's what is so dangerous about so many unvetted people. he could be a felon in ecuador doing this. >> bill: the mother of this woman killed, mother of five in the state of maryland. the culprit was wanted for a crime in california. committing murder allegedly in maryland and arrested drinking beer in a bar in oklahoma. >> i don't want to underestimate the importance of what is going on at the southern border. we're almost 2,000 miles away from it and we have had two murders in the county that i live in and rachel lived in. i really want people to understand that life itself is valuable and precious and that's what we need to preserve. that's what makes this an american crisis. >> bill: there were two murders in that same county committed by allegedly committed by illegals. where does this end? >> i don't know. you have to say to yourself look, this is happening almost daily. it really does feel now like almost daily we have some horrific crime. nobody is saying that every immigrant to this country has these tendencies that they are all criminals. we understand that. we understand the vast majority of even the illegal immigrants are here for a better life. when you let in ten to 20 million people about whom we know nothing, history has shown us. what happened? castro cleaned out his prisons and insane asill oms and sent those folks here. most weren't criminals. some were. that is a tactic maduro is using. it is no surprise unfortunately. look at the case that we have of the guy arrested in queens. if you deport him he can come back. he can come back into the country with no -- >> martha: he does the border quite well. three times. when the former president says they aren't sending their best, in these cases of these individuals he is right about that. they get lost in the shuffle because there is such a huge volume of people it makes it impossible. >> bill: we'll see his court appearance coming up shortly. >> martha: migrants from as far away as china are flooding the border in the tens of thousands. ask yourself why are tens of thousands of people coming from china to california to cross that border in those open areas? in the san diego sector patrol agents have arrested a chinese man wanted for murder in his own country. bill melugin picks up the story from southern california. hi, bill. >> good morning to you. the numbers are wild. cpb data shows more than 30,000 chinese nationals have crossed illegally here through the san diego sector just since october 1st. to put that in perspective that's enough chinese to fill up all of madison square garden and have another 10,000 left for overflow. look at this video. more chinese nationals crossed yesterday. they walk in on this railroad out here. they have no idea where they are, no idea where they are going. they stand around looking. almost always single adults, the chinese. we rarely see them bringing in kids. no border patrol around at the time we shot this video. in california national guard despite the selfie governor newsom posted the other day. they get onto a local highway and start wandering down aimlessly this local highway. you'll see random groups of chinese or folks from the middle east walking down the road. this group eventually was later apprehended by border patrol. we saw that happen. look at the second video, another group of migrants that crossed illegally made up primarily of chinese national and central and south america. the san diego sector has had 270,000 people cross illegally since october 1st. some show up with luggage and neck pillows like they wait for a flight. they expect release. lastly you mentioned the murderer. the photo here, border patrol here in san diego sector reporting agents arrested this chinese national right here in the area over the weekend. he had an active warrant for murder out for his arrest. sources telling us that murder warrant was out of los angeles. back out here live ecuador announced yesterday they're ending visa-free travel for chinese nationals because so many chinese are showing up in their country going through ecuador to get to the united states. ecuador is ending that visa-free travel for chinese likely from pressure from the united states. >> bill: maybe some progress. 13 past now. >> biological evidence, the epidemiological evidence by most qualified virologists strongly favor that it's a national occurrence. >> bill: there is a debate about that. hardly a consensus view. the senate hearing on the origins of covid giving new credence to the theory that it leaked from the wuhan -- >> no developments on the timberlake story next. >> bill: is the biden administration now handcuffing israel at the worst possible time? ♪ ♪ ♪

>> it's one of the many pieces of evidence that it was engineered because a new virus from nature isn't very good at infecting humans. so for who is infected it is bad. human-to-human transmission is not observed in a natural virus. here we had something very different. my concern is that scientists in the u.s. who knew about this research, dr. fauci, dr. collins knew this and failed to tell the front-line doctors you have to watch out for human-to-human transmission. taiwan did that properly. they had 2% of our deaths. that's what could have happened in the u.s. >> martha: why would they not make it known if they knew that, as you say? >> 1% of nih grants involve gain-of-function research but their paychecks depend doing this kind of research. if it's known it came from a lab and modified there and known they made it purposely asymptomatic and human-to-human transmissible they would have to expose that process in order to give front line doctors the proper advice. but i just don't see how you can do that. >> martha: you are saying because of money dr. fauci decided not to let people know this was a lab-born virus, is that what you are saying? >> he has a record of 15 years ever supporting gain-of-function research. my own analysis is that kind of research has led to no useful civilian uses in medicine. >> martha: he was willing to put that investment, those 15 years of connection with gain-of-function research as a priority rather than the spread and the killing of millions of people globally. that what you are saying? >> that's right. if you know the first week of january there is human-to-human transmission you get that information to the front line doctors and they act differently the way that doctors did in taiwan and you end up with 2,000 deaths instead of 1 million. >> martha: what did they do differently in taiwan that we should have done? doctor fauci is saying he would have left the schools open and opened them early and accepting the societal damage we're suffering from, doctor. >> so they did a very simple thing, minor inconvenience. boarded every plane coming from wuhan and took temperatures before people got out of seats and quarantined those folks with temperatures and contact traced all the people coming from wuhan and avoided it. 6% of the taiwan population is in china at any given time visiting family, doing business. they were the country that should have had the highest penetration of the virus but by taking that simple step at the end of december, they were able to get it down to 2% of what is u.s. had. >> martha: it's shocking and now he is selling another book and going on a big publicity tour and talking about how he handled all of this so well. thank you, doctor, thank you very much. good to have you here. i hope everybody pays attention to what you are saying and hope we behave much more responsibly the next time around. >> can i say one thing? i would like every one of your viewers who lost a loved one to write your congressman and tell them the name of that loved one, describe what they meant to your family and tell them to honor their life by investigating this origin. >> martha: good advice, sir. doctor, thank you very much. great to have you here. >> bill: wow. sobering, right? 25 past now. middle east, israel's northern front is heating up. jewish state and hezbollah trading intensifying strikes. the biden administration avoids transferring a key weapon of war and what's up with this in tel aviv. trey, what's happening? >> good morning. a feud is unravel between israeli and american leadership over weapons shipments to the middle east. netanyahu this week slammed the biden administration for withholding thousands of bombs for fighter jets. israeli leader claimed without evidence the move is slowing the rafah offensive in southern gaza. americans have expressed concerns over u.s. weapons being used in gaza for the civilian death toll continues to rise. u.s. secretary of state antony blinken responded to netanyahu's comment saying this. >> i won't talk about what we said in diplomatic conversations. i can just say again that we have a commitment to make sure that israel has what it needs to defend itself against a whole variety of threats. >> that commitment comes as israel prepares for the possibility of a much larger war with the iran-backed lebanese group hezbollah. israeli military said in a statement tuesday operational plans were approved by the head of northern command to take offensive action against lebanon. rocket sirens sounded across northern israel amid new attacks from hezbollah. overnight israel launched strikes in southern lebanon as the fighting continues. israeli defense officials tell fox news this week that diplomatic efforts are ongoing to avert a large crisis. at this point the window is closing, bill. >> bill: trey yengst with the latest in tel aviv. thank you, trey, good to see you. >> martha: new video of the moments just before justin timber like was pulled over for erratic driving and why he had to spend hours overnight in lockup. plus concerns over president biden's mental sharpness are not going away. videos of his gaffes and apparent freezes are in plain sight. how the white house is spinning what voters are seeing. jessica anderson and joe concha react. hey. you seein' this?

he is set to have a concert in chicago on friday. then supposed to perform in new york city at madison square garden next week. he told the cop who arrested him during the situation saying this will ruin the tour. the pop star has a virtual hearing scheduled in july. >> bill: we'll see what comes next. thank you. >> martha: questions about president biden's age keep dogging the white house. just yesterday the president appeared at one point to forget the name of his dhs secretary. we'll show you the video. see what you think about this. >> president biden: my name is joe biden and i'm jill biden's husband. [laughter] thanks to all the members of congress and homeland security secretary -- i'm not sure -- all kidding aside, secretary mayorkas as well as secretary and advocates and families for law enforcement, faith leaders, everybody is here. >> martha: joining us now jessica anderson and joe concha, fox news contributor, great to have you both with us. i will give you the first crack at that. what is your interpretation of that video? >> biden is in clear mental decay are in full stage here and how the white house is trying to cover it up and denying what we're seeing, this man is in total mental decay. you couple that with the reality the biden campaign doesn't have a platform now. their entire policy perspective is anything but trump. a leader lost. policies that have no footing or bearing on what the american people care about, the economy, closing the border, safety and security and no wonder the campaign is in a total free fall and heading into the debate next week we'll see how he even performs then and november at the polls. >> bill: here is karine jean-pierre just yesterday on msnbc. >> what you saw is the republican party really manipulating what was being said and what was being seen by the american people that we've been calling it cheap fakes. something that came from -- directly from the media outlets and calling it that. the fact checkers calling it that. we're certainly going to be really clear about that as well and calling it out from where we are from where we stand. >> bill: notwithstanding what we just watched together. i don't know if you can call that a cheap fake or deepfake or any other fake. mental sharpness, biden 23% on an abc poll. age heading into re-election biden is too old, 28%. trump is too old, 2%. >> on average one quarter of the country believes that the current president has the mental acuity to do this job over the next four years. one quarter. what does that say as far as biden's chances? axios today has a very stunning report. they quote a democratic strategist who says this. unclear to many of us watching from the outside whether the president and the core team realize how dire the situation is right now and whether they have a plan to fix it. that is scary. and we keep hearing from the white house -- did i say dana? i'm sorry, so used to that. this will be a story somewhere, i'm sure. we keep hearing that these clips are edited and manipulated. we played it verbatim. not like this is a one off. this is almost a daily occurrence at this point. we all have relatives who have gone through this. it doesn't reverse itself. it only gets worst. the worst part is we hear there many in the media this is a president behind closed doors that is the modern day version of john adams, and only in public are we seeing this. that's the big question. if this is the person we're seeing in public, how is joe biden operating in private? you are right. the debate is everything on june 27th. if he can show he can operate without a teleprompter and scripted remarks maybe he gets another chance. i think otherwise democrats will be looking for somebody else. >> bill: there is trump yesterday in racine, wisconsin. >> joe biden is humiliating our country on the world stage. he is actually humiliating us. crooked joe and his handlers are insisting he is sharper than ever and they say the videos of crooked joe shuffling around are clean fakes? you know what that is? deceptively edited. he can't go anywhere without a mistake. >> bill: he meant to say cheap fakes. >> i want to make a point here that i think is missing from this conversation. every time the white house talks about these deepfakes or cheap fakes they are taking away from the reality we saw senator cruz on the program earlier today talking about a.i. that's manipulating images of young girls and putting it out online and then you have a trail that follows them. they are taking away from a very real problem that we have with deepfakes that is not this. these images are real, unedited and we can see them with our own eyes. they are taking away from the reality of people struggling with this online. it is trying to make light of this issue, which is a real issue. shame on the white house they haven't come out and clarified for the record these are not altered images. shame on the white house for not actually presenting an accurate picture of the president both behind the scenes and in front of cameras. that is what voters want to see. >> martha: there is no news conference today but a question needs to be asked. are you going to retract the statement these are altered videos? they are not. they are not. >> what about the president's words. he said he inheristed 9% inflation when he came into office and said his uncle was eaten by cannibals and keeps saying was a constitutional law professor at penn when he is not. i could give examples but we don't have time. those are his words. are they manipulated as well? >> bill: thank you joe and jessica. dana said thanks, martha, sorry. >> when all we wanted is held someone accountable for the crime that they committed for killing our daughter and the rest of the 346 lives. >> bill: hard to listen to. families who lost loved ones in a boeing plane crash blasting the ceo after a hearing on the hill. we'll talk to richard blum en thal. a puppy rescue caught on camera. wait until you see this. went on for some time, all right?

>> senator, i am sticking this through. i am proud of having taken the job and proud of our safety record. >> would you agree there has to be more accountability? >> senator, i am doing everything in my power. if i agreed then i would have done something more. >> bill: richard blumenthal the democrat presiding over yesterday's hearings. good morning to you. he did something that mark zuckerberg did several months ago. stood up and said he was sorry to the families who were there. >> i would like to apologize on behalf of all of our boeing associates spread throughout the country, past and present, for your losses. i apologize for the grief it caused and -- [inaudible] we are focused on safety. >> bill: sir, i know you were critical, too. what's the problem with boeing? >> the problem with boeing is that a once iconic company that was essentially an engineering manufacturer put profits over safety and quality, emphasizing the next earning call over the excellence of its product. and that was a problem that developed over a number of years and ceos, and dave calhoun was only the latest to face accountability and that's, in fact, been lacking, accountability. so it really is a combination of problems. but now boeing has to face this moment of reckoning. it is more than just apologies to the victims and loved ones of those two crashes. it is a series of incidents involving manufacturing defects, retaliation against whistleblowers, unforgiveable in a company that says it has a policy of speak up and in fact engages in shut up. >> bill: he was quite offended by any senator who presented him with the argument you are presenting there and stood up for the company. he will be there until the end of the year. the families are left to deal with the loss of their loved ones. some of them from a bit earlier today. >> how in those same hours can you say that you are sorry and then say that you are proud of all the decisions that you have made in the past years? he tries to shirk the responsibility by saying that he was just ceo. he was the one making the decisions between the first crash and the second crash and between those two crashes he knew that there was something wrong. >> bill: our sympathy with those families, certainly. i fly, you fly. are you afraid to fly? do you feel safe when you fly, senator? >> i fly. in fact, i am going to fly in just moments or a couple of hours, and i would fly boeing planes but the point is that there is a risk to flying. it is created when a company uses what are called non-conforming parts, dangerous or defective parts that have been rejected or undocumented, a danger when parts are misfastened, as one of the whistleblowers complained, a danger when there is retaliation against whistleblowers who speak up to constructively criticize and in fact are threatened with termination, sometimes physical violence. we have more than a dozen whistleblowers who have attested very credibly to these problems. so i will fly but the want the risk to be reduced. >> bill: one more topic here and move onto it quickly. we have a campaign five months out. axios has the story this morning about insiders on the campaign and outside really concerned about joe biden's situation. here is the quote, unclear to many of us watching from the outside whether the president and core team realize our dire the situation is now or whether they have a plan to fix it. that is scary, end quote. do you see a way around this right now five months out? >> i think that the choice will be made by voters much closer to election day. it will be a choice between two people. they will have to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of each candidate and i think these momentary comments, i'm not the democratic strategist who commented for that article, will be a lot less important than what people see and hear in this debate that's upcoming. >> bill: they say the insiders stay quiet because they don't want to be seen as disloyal. we'll see where the story developments. appreciate your time for coming on today. thank you for your time. >> martha: rachel morin's mother speaking out after an illegal immigrant was arrested in the murder of her daughter. the story is raising concerns about the deadly consequences of our open border. plus a potential tropical storm gathering strength and aiming at the texas coast. kidney disease e the risk of kidney failure with farxiga. because there are places you'd like to be. farxiga can cause serious side effects, including ketoacidosis that may be fatal, dehydration, urinary tract, or genital yeast infections, and low blood sugar. a rare, life-threatening bacterial infection in the skin of the perineum could occur. stop taking farxiga and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of this infection, an allergic reaction, or ketoacidosis. ♪ far-xi-ga ♪ our clients love these. you have got to read the testimonials. listen. the proper annuity used correctly can be a tremendous tool to help you achieve financial security. here are the benefits. stock market growth, protection against market losses, compound interest and no annual fees. sound too good to be true?
