And threats. Where does all this stand now . Were learning more and more airlines more and more flights. Law enforcement receiving these anonymous calls. Once again, none of them have any correct at this point. Were learning that a flight that is right now landing at jackson heartsfield airport in atlanta, Virgin Atlantic flight 103m arriving from manchester england, has received a nonspecific threat. No other information is available at this time. Also United Airlines has confirmed with us that Newark Airport in new jersey flight number 63 from madrid to newark is one of the flights that has been affected. It is currently undergoing an inspection. Nothing has been found. Its at a remote parking location away from the terminal there, hoping for passengers to be able to get off that plane soon. Now something thats a little different because these are all international flights. Were learning this right now. Southwest airlines in Buffalo Niagra International airport, the pilot after landing just a short time ago requested canine detection unit to come on board the plane. They are searching the plane right now. No irregularities were found. That plane is being reboarded for its next flight. We did get word from the fbi. They issued a statement to cnn. We want to read that for you. It says out of an abundance of caution, air France Flight number 22 which started it all this morning, was escorted to john f. Kennedy airport by u. S. Air force fighter jets following a phone threat. The plane has landed, has deboarded. There were no incidents or hazards reported on board. The plane has been cleared. And there was another flight. American Airlines Flight earlier today from birmingham england, to jfk. It landed without incident. Once again, it was an affected flight. A phone threat being called into Law Enforcement saying and the threats have not really become public. Reports are a chemical attack. But nothing credible at this point. But the threats are still coming and the airplanes are still being looked at. So bizarre. Jean thank you for the update. It moved in fast it hit quite hard. This line of massive storms flooded parts of the plains and midwest sunday. Three people across two different states have died. The damage was particularly devastating in parts of Central Texas. 12 others are missing at this hour after ferocious flash flooding swept through the towns of wimberley and san marcos. [ bleep ] oh my god stop stop stop he needs to get out [ bleep ] oh my god oh my god youre seeing this video. This suv became trapped many these fastmoving waters. Thank goodness bisandystanders were there. They were able to get him out. The storm collapsed a bridge. Thousands of people are displaced because their homes have been wrecked. Cnns ed lavandera is on the phone with many free wimberley. Tell me what youre seeing. Hey, brooke. I wanted to start off by saying normally wed be there live in front of the camera but another line of storms coming through has knocked us off the air here temporarily in the town of wimberley, texas, an area thats already dealing with a dreadful amount of rain thats caused an extensive amount of damage along the blanco river here in this normally quiet Central Texas town. One person killed in this area. The more disturbing news here at this point is there are 12 others still believed to be missing. Were told by emergency officials here in the wimberley area that these are believed to be 12 people that were part of a memorial day weekend gathering, several families coming together to spend at the river house here along the blanco river. There are search and rescue teams going up and down the banks of the river here this afternoon looking for these 12 people which were told also could include several small children. So a very scary situation for those families involved as they try to figure out where those people those loved ones might be at this point. Obviously the longer this drags out, the more treacherous and the more desperate that situation becomes. So well continue to monitor that brooke. But this is an area where the blanco river rose dramatically very quickly in the middle of the Night Saturday going into early sunday morning. The rainfall fell here dramatically. The blanco river crested a little more than 40 feet over its normal stage. As you look along the banks of this river, brooke its staggering to see the amount of damage inflicted by the massive trees that were swept away, ripping homes off their foundation. Were told nearly 400 homes simply washed away. At least 1,000 homes in all damaged. Its incredible. This is why they call it flash flooding just how it can happen in a nanosecond. Were talking to someone who had to be pulled out with a black hawk helicopter because he got stuck in some of these fastmoving waters. Ed lavandera, thank you so much. Be safe. Lets talk about the weather looking ahead. Cnn meteorologist tom sader is on the latest. Its so important to mention tornadoes and not just the flash flooding right . All in the same area brooke. Youre right. The multiple elements of Severe Weather here. What used to be a slight risk in yellow yesterday has now been given what we call an enhanced and moderate risk for tornadoes by the storm prediction center. So its the same area of concern from Oklahoma City southward, all the way down past austin which is where weve had our flooding. Notice the tornado watch boxes. Heres the dallas metroplex area. Weve had Severe Weather. In between san antonio and austin is san marcos. This is an area where, again, as e was mentioning more rainfall is moving in. You have to understand. On saturday we had 9, 10, 11 1 2 inches of rain in 24 hours. You have that dramatic increase in the water levels. Were going to see a couple inches. Yes, the ground is saturated, but were not expecting to see those rivers at those historic heights. We do however, have some tornado warnings. This one in effect for about 155,000 people. That includes cities in cedar park georgetown and counties such as burnett, travis and williamson. We had a visual sighting by Law Enforcement of a large tornado on the ground. Since then thats able to dissipate. We have other ones being spotted as well. In fact just to the north of this and if you take a look at adamsville here again, we had a visual sighting by Law Enforcement of another large tornado. So our threat is not just the rainfall which is going to occur, and there will be some flash flooding but now were looking at the possible, you know threat and risk of loss of life again and property. So thats our concern today. Unfortunately, its all in the same general areas that we continue to see week after week. Its been three weeks now that weve had a setup in the pattern thats so stagnant that first were seeing the Severe Weather. Over 200 tornados in this area alone. Then day after day of rain. Remember this was once a high drought area with exceptional drought in oklahoma and into texas. Youd like to see the reservoirs get filled up but you dont want to see this. Not like this. Exactly. In fact, heres san antonio and austin. Were getting well over 10 inches of rainfall. Thats a threeday total. Unfortunately from dallas into this area up toward Oklahoma City there will most likely be more high water rescues that we have seen in the last couple of days because the ground is so saturated. Were going to watch this it looks like for the next couple days. Were about to show one of those highwater rescues. Tom sater, thank you so much. Keep a close eye on all that for us. Before we do that just into cnn, nfl player ray mcdonald arrested on Domestic Violence and child endangerment charges. No details as far as what happened. We do know hes in custody in california. Its worth noting mcdonald was arrested last august on felony Domestic Violence charges but prosecutors never formally charged him. After the season the 49ers released him citing quote unquote poor decision making. He signed a oneyear deal with chicago. Coming up next war of words.

Im brooke baldwin. Right now we are watching the fallout of a very divisive statement made exclusively to us here at cnn. The u. S. Secretary of Defense Ash Carter telling Barbara Starr that the iraqi soldiers dont have the quote unquote will to fight isis. The timing is incredible. Right now you have iraqi forces mobilizing on the perimeter of the city battling to regain control of the city. In the wake of secretary carters remarking, you now have Vice President joe biden quick to pick up the phone and call the iraqi Prime Minister thanks him for the bravery of the iraqi forces. So Barbara Starr, shes the one who got the interview with the defense secretary. Let me just begin with that interview and tell me more about what he shared with you, barbara. He was talking a good deal about the situation in ramadi as you pointed out. One of the things that secretary of defense is coping with right now is a lot of political pressure from the republicans in washington to make a commitment to put troops on the ground. So he apparently wanted to spell out in detail his views about the capability of those iraqi troops that the u. S. Forces would have to deal with on the ground. Listen to what he had to say. The iraqi forces just showed no will to fight. They were not outnumbered. In fact they last i have outnumbered the opposing force. Yet they failed to fight. They withdrew from the site. And that says to me and i think to most of us that we have an issue with the will of the iraqis. The will of the iraqis to fight, especially in ramadi. Hes really focusing on that because the fall of ramadi is so serious. Its a major city in iraq. Brings isis closer to baghdad. It is not what the u. S. Wanted to see. The iraqis may be wanting that counterattack. And it may or may not work. But what carters people are telling me today is theyve begun to look at some of the reasons why the iraqis had no will to fight. And what theyre fielgdnding is by all accounts these iraqi units on ground in ramadi had not been paid for weeks. They hadnt been let home to see their families. They were underweaponized. They didnt have enough weapons in some cases. They also felt very disconnected from their commanders. In the Iraqi Military theres a serious problem, the u. S. Feels, with leadership in that military. Thats according to u. S. Officials. They just feel that in many cases, those iraqi commanders are not really looking out for their troops on ground. So all of this added up is why the iraqi forces basically decided to bug out of ramadi. When you begin to look at it t you can begin to see it from the point of view of those iraqi troops on the ground. But still, the problem is this. What comes next . For now, the pentagon ruling out any use of Ground Combat troops by the u. S. To help pick out targets. They say they need to see the iraqis make a lot more progress. Brooke . Youre the second person in the last hour whos pointed out potential issues with leadership there and those commanders. I want top begin Barbara Starr, thank you so much. Let me bring in our cnn military analyst. I really want to ask you about that. But thank you, first and foremost for coming on and thank you for your service. I would be remiss not to say that on this very important day. But when you hear general, barbara talking about, you know, these Iraqi Security forces not getting paid being told, you know they cant take time away cant see their families you know dont really have guidance from commanders on the ground does that then surprise you if youre hearing from secretary of defense carter saying lack of will to fight . Not at all, brooke. This is a problem and a challenge that we saw even back when the last time i was there in 2008. There was a continuous pressure on iraqi Central Government to pay their soldiers to take care of them. The leaders at the time the commanders colonels and above, in the iraqi army were much better then, but theyve all been replaced. I looked a the fight at ramadi did a little bit of analysis. Its what barbara reported people in the pentagon are now saying to her. This was a disaster waiting to happen. You have a lack of coordination between units. You have various different units on the battlefield between the sunni tribes the Iraqi Security forces the iraqi police which are under the minister of the interior, not the minister of defense. You also have the shipping out to ramadi of the golden division. Theyve been all over iraq. Theyre the fire brigade. Its the elite iraqi forces that are sent everywhere. So they have been fighting in tikrit. So theyre exhausted. Yeah, theyre exhausted. So are the forces that have been fighting in ramadi very well for the last 18 months. You talk about a lack of uncoordinated support, a lack of fire support, a lack of intelligence, not very good intelligence and logistical problems this is the kind of things you see in a worstcase scenario. It gets to point that mr. Carter is saying is. Its not the iraqi soldiers. When he says forces i read that to mean the generals the government. Its writ large, the force writ large. Its not the soldiers. They will fight very bravely. Its the commanders and government having to get their act together. But if we know the administration weve heard over and over they dont want to commit combat troops. So i dont know how that would affect potential training of the need for leadership. Then you have, you know the senator john mccains of the world who are looking at the recent success of the world who took out an isis leader saying listen there need to be more special ops teams going in to help fight. Do you agree with the senator . I see it very differently, brooke. You send special ops in when you have very good intelligence and very good capability to target. You cant just plop a bunch of special forces on the ground and say, hey, go do good work. Its got to be driven by intelligence. The other thing thats interesting is when we talk about what happened during the surge, we have to remember the surge was put in place in order to give first of all, to train the iraqi army which it did a very good job of. But it was also to give the Iraqi Government time to get their act together. That was handed to them. They squandered that opportunity. Now you have, you know a failing army even though the soldiers are still willing to fight. And i have to give the Prime Minister credit. Hes attempting to pull it all back together. But he has some governmental interference from within his own government. I think thats what both president obama and mr. Carter are trying to say. Get your government together lead your forces and develop a will to fight. Let me ask you this since i have you on memorial day. I always really enjoy having you on general. I know given all the years you have dedicated to this country, do you have a favorite memorial day memory or a story . Well favorite is a tough ward to describe. Most moving. Yeah very emotional moments. Truthfully brooke the kinds of things i felt with our own soldiers is important. I also had an experience in europe when i was commanding there and went to the American Battlefield cemetery in the netherlands where we saw the citizens of this very small dutch town basically adopt the graves of 8,000 soldiers who were there from world war ii. They pass it from family to family. They take care of those graves. I tell you, thats a very moving experience when you have people of another country saying we thank america for giving us this freedom. I hope some day well see the same thing in iraq and afghanistan. Absolutely. And seeing all the pictures here this morning from Arlington National cemetery my own grandfather is buried there, 50 years with the u. S. Navy. Just an important day to stop and remember and be mindful. General Mark Hertling thank you so much. Coming up next the manhunt for the suspect in the washington, d. C. Mansion murders is not over.

Prosecutors say they believe the man charged with the killing of three members of a prominent washington, d. C. Family and their housekeeper did not act alone. Daron wint faces firstdegree murder charges. Hes in prison without bond. But what role did dna matching actually play in identifying this man . Cnns alexandra field visits an evidence lab to learn how authorities were able to find wint with a pizza. Reporter its potentially the smoking gun, a pizza box found at the scene. Inside crust that investigators say connects daron wint to a heinous crime. This is a good find for an investigator. Exactly, yeah. Reporter dr. David zang runs a dna Identification Lab in new york city. He says a single bite mark can be enough to crack a case. Swab the pizza to get as much dna from the crust as we can. Reporter he says investigators also likely tested a crumb. Put it in the tube. Get the cells out and proceed to the dna extraction. Reporter first, a machine separates out the dna. Purifying the dna. Reporter then the sample is amplified. Millions of copies are made that make the sample large enough to be seen with the help of another machine. The laser would trace the dna. Thats what youre going to see here. Reporter its a unique readout called a dna fingerprint. To solve the case that fingerprint can be added to or matched in a federal database including some 14 million different profiles. Hair saliva urine, semen, all these can be used. Reporter seemingly small clues picked up at crime scenes. He says a piece of crust can yield millions of cells or even just a few. Sometimes thats just enough to identify a suspect or even solve a case. Alexandra field, cnn, new york. Pizza crust. Now that daron wint is behind bars and Police Believe he did not act alone, theyre looking for anyone who helped him commit these crimes. What are Police Looking at now . I can tell you that d. C. Police are continuing to hunt for more suspects who allegedly helped daron wint pull off those brutal slayings of the family. There are looming questions about who was in that video of a person fleeing after the familys stolen porsche was torched. So they want to know who is this person . And theres an indication that its not daron wint. Heres why. There was a witness, according to the court affidavit, who saw the porsche being driven erratically out of washington by someone with short, wellgroomed hair. Thats a different description than wint, who appeared in court with mediumlength dread locks. Also deepening this mystery, Court Documents show that the assistant changed his story several times which questioned by police, altering details about how he dropped off 40,000 to the mansion just before the house was torched. According to police the assistant changed his story about when his boss contacted him to pick up the money, revised details he left the car he left the money in and admitted he lied by not telling police the cash informs a red bag. The assistant texted an unidentified person a picture of that red bag with moneyed in. That was just four hours later the familys home went up in flames. Short, wellgroomed hair. Thats some description. Pamela brown, thank you so much. Hopefully theyre able to figure out exactly who else was in on this.

This part of the country is a huge huge weather story. Severe weather making its way across texas, oklahoma. Today word of another tornado touching down north of san antonio. All of this after severe flooding just yesterday left three people dead and another 12 are still missing. Texas Governor Greg Abbott speaking about it just moments ago. Moments ago i had the opportunity to fly over blanco river and to observe first hand what the devastation looks like. And you cannot candy coat it. Its absolutely massive. I think it sends a powerful message to anyone whos in harms way over the entire state of texas over the coming days as we see ongoing rain. And that is the relentless tsunamitype power that this wave of water can pose for people. We are hearing all kinds of incredibly frightening and dramatic stories of people their cars being swept away because of the flash flooding. Imagine this, if your father called you to say he was trapped by flash floods couldnt get out, wanted to call to say goodbye. That is what happened to one young hay i didlady who got a call early sunday morning. Her dad was caught in it had to be rescued by black hawk helicopters. Before he was saved, his daughter was terrified. I kept calling him over and over. I was like are you okay are you okay . He was like i dont know if im going to make it but he was like i love you. Just hold on please, dont leave, im here for you. He was like i dont know what to tell you, im sorry. And here they are together in austin texas. Father and daughter danny and hanna. My heart goes out to you. Watching you, you know, in the midst of all of it. Thank you, both so much for taking the time with me today. Danny, i have to start with you. Take me back to yesterday morning. You hop in the truck, youre heading to work. You see the flooding up ahead. You decide to turn around. As you do so what happened . Well its just a little more dark than daylight. I get to a point im just in a normal area that normally you would not think flood, no river, nothing. I say, well im turning around here. You know the saying turn around dont drown. We have it down here. A guy was close behind me. Then two little cars and a police car behind them. He walked up and i said look im turning around so yall need to turn around so i can. He agreed immediately. They all three turned around. And we had just come through an area that was fines nice. The roads were good. As we turned around i followed them. They got through, and the guy in the police car, the policeman said he saw my red fourwheel drive pickup get washed off the road as they made it and i didnt. So i was perfectly timed with a wall of water, essentially. How high was the wall of water with your car . How high did it go . At that point, it was about, real quick, three feet. It hit the side of my door enough to be more powerful than speed im going, you know, 5 or 10 miles an hour. It pushed me off the road so i could no longer go forward. I instantly go okay im stuck here. So youre stuck. You realize you need to call 911. Hannah to you, you get this phone call from your dad. What did he say . Well i was actually asleep already. I just get a call. He never calls me ever. So i know he called me and that was an emergency. I called him right back after i missed the call. He just kept saying that he was stuck and he dont know if hes going to be able to get out. He said this would probably be the last time you hear from me. I thought i was dreaming. He was like and he was like i dont know what to do. Just call your mother. Tell everybody i love them. Its probably going to be the last time i talk to you. I was like what are you talking about, where are you at . He told me where he was at. I just jumped out of bed real quick and took off over there. By the time i get there, i cant see nothing. Theres cops everywhere. Theres helicopters. I cant get ahold of him. At that point, i just think that, you know the worst has happened. And finally, i got a call back from him saying that just to tell everybody that he loves them and that i dont know that he probably couldnt get ahold of nobody no more. And this will be the last time that i hear from him. Oh and you sat there and you watched this rescue. I mean danny, all the sudden you have this black hawk helicopter heading your way. I understand they had to wait for about an hour just a to wait for the right conditions to swoop in. Right. Well i had a state trooper helicopter that circled me a good hour but they werent able to rescue me. As im sitting there in the truck, im watching the water rise to a point that i its right up by my door window. I realize i have to roll the window down and get up on the roof or ill be trapped in there. So i do that and get up standing on the roof and watch the water for the next half hour slowly rise until my windshield disappears. I wind up standing in a threesquarefoot area of roof. Thats when i realize, this is over. Your whole life does flash before your eyes. You go if they dont come i have no choice here. Ill either be swept away. If i jump off, its over. You cant do anything in that kind of water. It controls you. So i thought, well okay. I tried to call a bunch of people. Fortunately, this thing here saved my life. Cell phone. Along with everyone that followed it. I was able to immediately call 911 and tell them exactly where i was, told them it would only be a Helicopter Rescue that could save me. They got right on it. They answered real quick. They got right on it. I waited on top of that roof for 45 minutes or so for that to come. I lost all hope. And the water got right up on the roof and im going, well im either going to jump or its taking me away. Oh, my goodness. I cannot even begin to imagine. I was trying to get the right last best thought in many mind. Thats where i was at. Asking for another chance. And you got it. And im so grateful to be talking to you. Just quickly, danny, you have a personal connection with the way you were rescued and your father thats this whole other twist to the story. Well its too incredible. Im right close to what used to be Gary Air Force base. As the crow flies, maybe a mile from there. I was born when we lived there in 1947. My dad had the very first helicopters that any Military Branch had. They brought them from Wright Patterson air force base in illinois to there. He was the first air rescue helicopter people maybe on the planet. He had went around the world rescuing people. He prototyped the very thing that saved me. How about that . He designed and prototyped the cable system to go down and pick people up where they could not land. And im a half a mile or a mile from where that all started to rescue me with that very method that my dad prototyped and designed. So a little piece of your dad. And they took me and dropped me off at that air base. Thats where i was born and where my dad initiated and started that very system. Im sitting here listening to you and keep shaking my head. This entire story, danny and hanna, thank you so much. Im so grateful youre aokay and together. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your memorial day together. Well be right back. Thank you.

On this memorial day our nation is pausing to reflect and pay tribute to our nations Fallen Heroes and voices speaking out today about the sacrifice made by veterans served in afghanistan in 2010 and 2011 fighting for the country. As far as military culture is concerned, a mans world. Captain wilson joins me now. Thank you so much for your service and for all youre doing with charities, helping ptsd sufferers and families of fallen soldiers. Welcome. Thank you very much. Read the piece where you were featured this morning in the New York Times and i think my first question being the fact that as i mentioned this really is still a maledominated world in the military. Either you knew going into it it would be tough, but when did you realize how tough . I think in afghanistan. It was just it was isolating when i was deployed. My soldiers were great but other things at play and i think when i was in afghanistan and saw all the guys around me bonding going to the gym together and laughing. I felt like i was left out. Just the isolation, i think, the most difficult part. Definitely in afghanistan. Because you didnt have other other you know female colleagues all at that one location where you were based. Correct . No. In my entire unit i think there might have been three or four other female officers. Wow. In my company i was the only female officer. So i was on my own, and then a platoon leader the only female officer in my unit, or at that base, and i was pretty much on my own. Hmm. So while you were there in afghanistan, i think half way through your deployment. You talk about writing an email home to a friend determined not to take your own life. Why did it get so bad for you . I think just being alone. I felt you know i cared so much about my job and we were working like 16 18hour days and its just all of this constant stress and i felt there was never a way to release it. I didnt feel like i had anybody to talk to or just you know let my guard down. I was just always on and, you know when you do that for months on end, it just with no release, it definitely takes its toll. How did you get through it, captain . I trained for a marathon and ran three hours a day, and worked out all the time. And emailed my friends and family a lot. Thats what helped carry you through. Wow. Absolutely yeah. You came back so fort hood when you really i was reading a yob panic attacks, not able to breathe because it got so bad and you got help. What was that help . What did that enable you to do . It absolutely gave me my life back. I am the happiest person ever now and its completely because the military stepped up and gave me amazing resources. Do you wan biofeedback, yoga, medication therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, threw resources at me and i could not be happier with the service i received. It gave me my life back. Wonderful. Thats wonderful. We know that and want more women to enterthe forces. So i guess what would your message be to women . Wanting to sign up today. I would say, be authentic. I think i spent way too much time caring about what other people thought and what type of leader they wanted me to be rather than understanding that i was competent and good and just be myself. I wish that i had been more authentic. Quickly, i know youre out now. Whats next for you . I actually started my own fitness business. And im going to bapson college in massachusetts to get my mba. Hopefully open up a nonprofit gym that focuses on young women, and just getting them to understand the value of fitness and see how strong they are and love for that to be led by female veterans.
