Zone right now. And caught on camera. Elephant rampage. The angry animal gone wild chasing down his handlers tossing this car like a toy, so what set him off . All right, hey, good morning. Were going to start here with the story that is still developing this hour. Firefighters tell us theyve never seen anything like what happened overnight on this freeway in california. The video shows the moments when a fastmoving wildfire swept across this highway. The drivers were surrounded by those flames. Hundreds of them running for safety. Their cars and trucks left to burn. And an infuriating question this morning, were efforts to fight those flames from the air hampered by the interference of amateur Drone Operators . Lets get the latest now from abcs matt gutman who is on the scene in phelan, california. Good morning, matt. Reporter good morning, paula. That fire is still smoldering. Now, it raced across the countryside here chewing through thousands of acres in six hours. So facet caught up with motorists on a highway trapping some of them. Overnight the horror on the highway. Another racing up the hill leaping onto this interstate. Cars, semis, even this boat bursting into flames. Some turned into charred metal husks. The fire burning thousands of acres moving so fast this family narrowly missing it. Oh, my god. I can feel the heat. Reporter the scene apocalyptic, an exodus of those fleeing their cars on foot, others taking to the hill. Sedans on single track roads. This man from michigan on his first trip to california. People were running up the hill. It was just a nightmare. Reporter his kids taking it hardest. I just grabbed my kids, and everyone was screaming, cars were on fire, blowing up. Reporter squadrons of jets dropping tons of flame retardant hoping to slow the fire. Helicopters dumping buckets of water on those burning cars to little effect. The wildfire problem so severe a second fire popped up just miles away chewing through woods near several packed summer camps. 300 people evacuated including a group of 90 girl scouts. Some seen huddling in this red cross shelter. That wall of fire creating a massive curtain of smoke pluming over the town of oak hill. Only 5 contained, the fire consumed more than 3,000 acres. Where do you want me to go . I want you to get in your truck and leave. Reporter emergency crews saying their relief efforts delayed because of interference of five personal drones in the area. 26 minutes, thats how long fire officials tell me they were delayed because of those drones. No arrests were made. It is bone dry out here. You can hear it and see it. This is already shaping up to be one of the worst fire seasons in well over a decade and its not even halfway over, dan. No, theres a long way to go and theyre really going to have to figure out this drone issue. Its not the first time its happened, and i expect itll pop up again in the future. Matt gutman, thank you for your reporting this morning. Were going to move now to the fullscale federal investigation into the young man who shot up those two military facilities in chattanooga, tennessee. We are learning more about the gunman and his possible motives, and abcs chief investigative correspondent brian ross is here with the new information this morning. Brian, good morning to you. Reporter well, good morning, dan. Fbi technicians are working through the weekend this morning to go through to exploit the computers and cell phones that once belonged to mohammad abdulazeez. The computers and cell phones were seized from his home, a quiet street in the small Tennessee Town of hixon to determine what drove the young man who until this week neighbors had considered an allamerican kid. In my experience this was an isisinspired attack. Reporter officials tell abc news a sevenmonth stay in the mideast in jordan last year by abdulazeez could have been a turning point. Why did he go overseas . Who did he meet when he was there . Reporter from what authorities have learned so far, abdulazeezs transformation from teenager at a Swimming Hole to mixed marshalltial arts fighter to terrorist happened in rapid fashion. A friend who ran into him just a few weeks ago said he saw nothing out of the ordinary. I saw him maybe two weeks ago completely 100 normal. Reporter but for all the smile, abdulazeez grew up in a family with strife. Court documents filed by his mother allege his father beat her and the children and threatened to take a second wife as permitted by islamic law, and in a blog posting last monday, abdulazeez wrote life is short and bitter. [ sirens] three days later the deadly attack. The fbi had no warning abdulazeez was even thinking about violence. A stealth terrorist. These individuals are learning how to avoid the fbi and our surveillance. There was no opportunity along the way to stop this individual from carrying out this attack. Reporter the fbi says it has not yet found the evidence on public social media that would show abdulazeez was inspired or directed by isis, but the work this weekend at the fbi lab will be to determine if he was communicating on secret encrypted channels used by isis that the u. S. For all its might so far has had a hard time cracking dan. Theyre really worried about these encrypted chapels. My question is if he was in touch with isis, which we dont know yet, why wouldnt isis already have claimed responsibility . Thats an excellent question. And generally they do, although now lots of isis followers are praising him but so far no direct claim of responsibility. Okay. At this point he seems like the nightmare scenario doing it on his own. Absolutely. All right. Brian ross, thank you. Appreciate it. Dan, thank you. And this morning we are learning that another victim has died in the shooting. 24 years old, Randall Smith along with those four marines who were lost in this tragedy. Young sons and fathers. Jim avila has more on these five lives taken. Reporter the fifth is a sailor from ohio shot three times and has been in Critical Condition since the attack. He did not survive surgery. He is survived by his wife and three young daughters. Its extremely tragic to see an american soldier killed on american soil. God bless america reporter overnight mourners gathered to grieve the loss of the Fallen Heroes from the just enlisted to combat veterans, the faces of those murdered where they worked. The faces of the victims. The baby face skip wells just 21 years old, the only son raised by a single mother, he had only recently joined the marine reserves. No one ever would expect to die in the capacity in which he did, but he died with his boots on, and he died doing what he loved. Reporter and in the moments before he died, wells according to the Associated Press texting his girlfriend these last words, active shooter. Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez opening fire at the marine corps facility after driving seven miles from the recruiting office where he began his rampage on thursday morning. Gunnery Sergeant Thomas sullivan, 40 years old, who survived two tours of duty in iraq only to be gunned down here at home. Sullivans family draped a flag over their restaurant in springfield, massachusetts, and wrote this, he was our hero and he will never be forgotten. Thank you, tommy, for protecting us. In grantsburg, wisconsin, carson holmquists picture hanging on his high schools military honor wall he was only 27 and in berkdale california david wyatt remembered by his aunt.

Dennis pedigo hes the Police Officer who was wounded during the firefight said that he is doing well and his spirits are good. Dan. Jim, and we thank you for your reporting. And this statistic from the New York Times this morning is jarring, more marines were killed in chattanooga than in all of afghanistan this year. A horrific event, and that concludes our coverage of that story this morning. Were going to move on to the extreme weather this weekend. 45 Million People across the midwest and the plains bracing for severe summer thunderstorms packing damaging winds, large hail and flash flooding, and rob is here. Rob, teach me how to speak, please. Just let him do the weather. The problem with summer thunderstorms, theyre not only tough to say, but theyre kind of scattered. We got them across much of the country and got them across the northeast but a strong complex of thunderstorms right now moving across wisconsin.

Drivers getting pelted, and watch as these huge ice chunks pummeled this golf course some the size of baseballs. And this morning, residents cleaning up after seven confirmed tornadoes ripped through Northern Illinois and iowa earlier this week snapping trees, tearing roofs off homes and destroying cars. All of a sudden all i kept hearing was its all gone. Its all gone. Its all gone. More tornadoes possible today and tomorrow though the main threat is going to be some damaging straightline winds and frequent lightning as weve been seeing. This line of storms will kind of stretch out. This is the typical time of year where the northern half moves more quickly than the southern half so back through the high plains youll see Severe Weather. Chicago today i think youll get it later on this morning and then tomorrow, kansas city back through indianapolis all the way up through buffalo, thats where the cold front will be. Damaging wind, hail and a brief tornado possible tomorrow and also some heavy rain with these storms even across parts of new england, we could see 2 to 3 inches of rainfall as we go through monday. Paula, much more weather coming up in just a few. Rob, great to have you back and well check in with you a little bit later. Now to the mysterious jailhouse death of a woman in texas seen here on cell phone video. Now, Authorities Say she hung herself in her jail cell, but her friends and family say they cannot fathom that she would kill herself as they led a demonstration outside the jail demanding an investigation. Abcs Mara Schiavocampo is on the story for us this morning. Good morning, mara. Paula, good morning.

Abcs linsey davis speaking with the congresswoman from that texas district. I dont believe that we should allow this case to languish without a full investigation. Reporter authorities discovered bland dead in her cell three days later saying she hanged herself. The District Attorney saying videos like this its a little bit of depression as well as ptsd. Reporter could be used in the investigation. Selfdiagnosis is certainly something that we are going to look at and consider with the motive for a suicide. Reporter but blands family saying she would never take her life and was the one assaulted. Based on the sandy that i knew, thats unfathomable to me. Reporter now, the officer involved in the arrest will remain on administrative duties until the conclusion of the investigation. The Texas Department of Public Safety also says the fbi will conduct a forensic analysis of the videos related to the case, and they will release related video footage to the public as soon as possible. A lot of questions here to be answered. But that social media post about ptsd and being depressed, her friends and family saying it was taken out of context. Thats what were hearing. But, again, its all part of the investigation into what her state of mind was at the time of her arrest. As you said, a lot more questions to be answered. Thank you, mara. Well switch gears to the race for the white house. Your voice, your vote and the unexpected twist for Hillary Clinton.

We want to turn things over to ron with the other stories were tracking including a shooting spree in maine. That is right. A convicted sex offender in maine is back behind bars this morning accused of fatally shooting two people and wounding three others in separate incidents in that state. Police say that anthony lord beat a man and stole guns from him and a pickup truck before going on that rampage. When he was arrested, a 22yearold woman was rescued, would have been in his custody unharmed. And a small passenger plane crashed into a rugged mountainous area of alaska killing one person, but four others on board that plane survived. Coast guard Officials Say their rescue efforts were hampered by poor weather and the steep terrain, but they were able to hoist the survivors by helicopter from that crash site. And overseas in south africa more than 300 people injured when their commuter train rammed into a stopped train. The accident occurred in johannesburg on friday during the height of the evening rush hour. The stopped train was in a station at the time. And back at home, its three strikes, and youre out in baseball. Last night it was three outages, power outages, that stopped a game between the Washington Nationals and l. A. Dodgers in d. C. A bank of stadium lights behind third base went out the first time leading to an hour plus delay. In that game, well, they got the lights working. It went out again and again. Three times was enough. The game was suspended in the fifth inning with the dodgers up, 21. That game, if youre keeping score will resume later today. And finally, in denmark three elephants from a traveling circus got loose, went on a rampage in a beach. It apparently began when a circus worker struck one of the animals, the elephant with a stick causing that one to run offer. Yes, the angry pachyderms tried to pick up a truck with his tusks. So, theyre really strong. A lot of adrenaline. Paula. Theyre very angry. Eventually the elephants were calmed eded down and they were rounded back up. How about this, why dont we leave the elephants in the wild and stop making them travel around in circuses. I would be in favor of that. I was chased by Wild Elephants in the wild once, one of the most terrifying experiences in my life. Im not even making that up. Did you provoke the elephant . No, they saw us and ran after it. You are a threatening human being. I am not a threatening what do you do with an elephant, you dont stop, drop and roll or anything. You send your chihuahuas after them. You run as fast as you can. Ron is correct on this as he is in most things. We want to know what do you do if there are summer thunderstorms. Is that how you say it . I was unable to say thunder or summer thunderstorms. But, rob, you saved me. Lets live in the present. Well played. Well played. If you are in a fire, stop, drop and roll is the proper way. Coachella festival over but winds blowing. We had a thunderstorm outside of there yesterday caused some winds to kick up the classic haboob. A sandstorm, low visibilities. Might see more of these as we go through time because well see more thunderstorms. Very active monsoon season. And whats left of dolores is going to cause more in the way of thunderstorms. They could cause flash flooding. Tropical storm dolores was at one point a category 4 hurricane.

Dan markel, a Florida StateUniversity Professor and father of two, he was gunned down at his home in florida and on the anniversary of his death authorities are revealing new clues that they hope will track down his killer, and abcs phillip mena is here with the story. Good morning, phillip. Reporter paula, dan, good morning. Such a puzzling case, this was a wellknown College Professor who police said was the intended target of that fatal attack. But here we are a year later and still no sign of a suspect. This morning, new information released by Tallahassee Police that they hope will solve a brutal crime. This is a picture of the actual suspect vehicle. Reporter exactly one year ago today, Florida StateUniversity Professor dan markel murdered, shot in his car in cold blood. He was so full of life, so full of love, a friend to so many people. Reporter officers releasing information about the suspects car in hopes of getting closer to solving the crime. The first thing is going to be the color. Reporter saying the silver vehicle has one black passenger side mirror and a missing tow bolt. Police also saying they believe the cars owner may not have known the car was used in a crime. I cannot mavenlg a person wanting to hurt him. I dont think any of his friends can. Reporter according to police the father of two shot by a waiting assassin. Markel on the phone when he arrived home telling an unidentified caller, someone is in my driveway. The suspect then followed him into the garage shooting him in the head. The drivers side window is all bashed in, and hes got blood all over his head. Reporter alive when police arrived, markel was pronounced dead in the hospital hours later. Two days before his murder markel posted to his blog about the death penalty. He had received threatening comments in 2012 on the same website. Is it possible that some of his scholarship and literature created some enemies . I guess thats as possible as any of the other scenarios. Reporter and to help get the case solved, the reward money has now been increased from 25,000 to 125,000. Hopefully that will work. And authorities really havent been able to establish a motive here. Just that controversial blog post is something that keeps coming up as something to possibly look at but still no motive. A mystery. All right, thanks, phil, appreciate it. Ron is back with another look at the other News Headlines including more on our top story, those california wildfires. Yeah, thats right. A thousand firefighters out there in california still battling that huge fastmoving wildfire that is east of los angeles. The raging wildfire set 20 vehicles ablaze on interstate 15, the main highway between l. A. And las vegas. That fire only 5 contained at this hour. Now to breaking news from chattanooga, tennessee, Randall Smith a sailor injured during the shooting spree in that city has died. His death comes two days after four marines were killed and three others injured when 24yearold mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez attacked those recruiting centers. Abdulazeez was shot to death by police. And in texas caught on camera a woman giving birth in a car. Oh, no, please. On a busy highway. There it is. Looks remarkably calm. Isnt that amazing . Theres no way she just had a baby. Well, maybe she found that baby. I dont know, or a stork dropped it through the sky light. The baby looks real. It is a real child. The proud dad presumably on his way to the hospital was driving. I dont believe he is shooting a video at the same time. I just wish it looked that she made it look so effortless. It really looks easy, doesnt it . Its hard enough when you have help. Youre in a car. I assume this happened a little before the video shot. Maybe the seat was back. There was some dont ruin it for us all. There was some im not done. Okay. Carry on. Im not done. Ron claiborne. I will not be ignored. Finally, tom bradys allegedly infamous deflategate ball could soon have a new home. The ball is going on auction tonight if anybody wants it. The bidding starting at 25,000 bucks, sara. Allegedly deflated. The football was found to be underinflated during the new England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts playoff game back in january, and, of course, new england won that game and of course it led to bradys fourgame suspension which he is appealing. And, sara, after that comment i would advise you never to visit the city of boston. Or anywhere near there. I think the price of that auction is going to inflate. Oh. I saw what you did there, p. Yeah, i think everybody saw how poor it was or deflate, exactly. Hey, rob, you do you want to save paula . Lets continue this horrible analogy and take it you know, their main argument was that the cold deflated the ball. Well, with the heat now that ball would be so big it would be ridiculous. Wouldnt be able to play with it. Lets go to philadelphia. Did you just change the subject . What . Its inflategate. Were doing weather. That was a seg. Yeah, call the emmys. Philadelphia, there is their skyline. Temperatures in the mid70s. It is going to be toasty there. Heat advisory in effect through tomorrow for the city of brotherly love. Heat pump is in action. The big blue h moves offshore. Here we go. The southwesterlies crank up and big cities in the northeast will go into the 90s, easily for new new york city and philadelphia. Could be the warmest day of the year so far. Its midjuly so its nothing out of the usual. So if you want to cool off, head to the beach. Water temperatures on the east coast, especially in florida in the atlantic, 87 degrees. Already to 75 degrees up across Atlantic City so beaches across the northeast beginning to warm up as far as waters go and texas coastline, 85 degrees there. Also warm across the pacific northwest. Boy, its been unusually warm for the past month and a half there. Heat advisories again for the willamette valley. And folks inland will see temperatures up and over 90 degrees, maybe 100 degrees in medford even out across parts of redding. 100 degrees expected there. Across the midsection of the country where we expect to see thunderstorms, Severe Weather potentially getting into chicago. Right now across parts of wisconsin and monsoon flow continues out west. This Weather Report is brought to you by expedia. See, i want to know what you were going to say that you laughed to keep yourself from saying. Oh i just makes sense to stop.

And this morning were going behind the scenes of industrial light magic, which was founded by george lucas. These people have been making the effects for blockbusters Like Star Wars and Jurassic Park for 40 years. It is the biggest blockbuster of the summer.

If we ever were to go forward and do things where he had to walk or sword fight, we would have to come up with a new way of doing it. Reporter coming up with a new way is the studios approach for the past four decades. Their innovations motivating others to do the same. Seeing Indiana Jones was an inspiration really for me to not only study ancient egyptian texts but create new technologies. That belongs in a museum. So do you. Reporter its even changed human lives with star wars influencing the invention of a real bionic arm. And they were so inspired by star wars, they actually nicknamed the decca arm the luke. Reporter the man who created the star wars universe is now hoping his movie magic will spark a new generation of creators.
