Thing you can do. Interview with the take a cloth, rag, towel, suspect to elicit the information. Whatever you have. Put it around the area, look, this is what we need. We are trying to find sometimes a tourniquet is helpful if theres an extremity. Trying to find you want to slow the bleeding additional down, hopefully saving this coconspirators, they can persons life and saving invoke the absolute right of counsel, look, valuable time. Gillian we want to save as many lives as possible in these i need a lawyer, however, under the situations, that is for sure. Emergency exception to that provision, that dr. Earnest patty, we appreciate goes out the window because we are looking your time. We want to update you with to save and protect information from police right innocent citizens on the now that we just learned that ground, so that absolute right to counsel goes one person is in out the window under the custody, we dont know who that person is, thats from the el paso Emergency Exception and we can continue to question this. Individual. I mentioned earlier in this, i believe they had a video feed that can they did announce no active shooter. See what was occurring lets bring in former in the mall. Nypd lieutenant, i think that information relearned vital was all captured and being used in connection information, what does with the roundup of the that tell you . I think its amazing additional suspects, but that we took the person in custody. Once again, i really tip my heart to bravery of jillian we dont know if its this person to be fair. The officers on the ground and the quickness all they said one person to get as many suspects
in custody. In play as they have at this stage to have game. Statistically its rob hang on a second, either death by cop or we will read passage, they commit suicide in the process of horrific carnage, if we are able to bring the person in multiple suspects in custody, the area is custody, it would be still an active scene tremendous asset for Law Enforcement to provide while eppd work with fbi teachable moments moving and Law Enforcement forward for active agencies, we will continue to utilize available resources to shooters. Respond to senseless act we provide protocols via of violence, my condolences and prayers schools, et cetera, germane information as we mourn those moving forward. Impacted by the tragedy. One to have things i should have spoke to this earlier, this is a multiple suspects part, you say dr. Porter that gigantic crime scene and it could be could be you have no idea the level of resources a solo act, we dont really know, these involved with trying to people could be detained secure such a major for reasons that arent crime scene especially when we have a suspect in custody, if we have even involved with what happened here. To bring this person to exactly, people trial to answer for this committed additional crimes as this was occurring, that we dont know and as i mentioned horrific offense, we need to have sound earlier, we were speaking of a place of information to convict this person beyond all reasonable doubt in a conjecture, what we do court of law, so right know the suspects or i should say the shooter
now what i believe the is in custody, 2, we do officers are doing at this stage is they are really doing everything have additional suspects in their power to secure this crime scene, that are in custody, we dont know what the whether its taking additional suspects are pictures, measurements, in custody for, and, 3, things to that effect. This is still a live scene, this is still an this is going to take a long time. Active crime scene and what the police are doing is they are i can tell you being a looking to secure this detective, two people crime scene because we shot in crime scene want to bring this person to court and have them answer to what their horrific crimes im sorry. Are in a court of law rob doctor, standby for here in the state of a second. Texas.

There. El paso is a fabulous kiana, i want you to tell our viewers what town. Its a very closeknit that was like when you were there, you initially heard the shots and then what community. Happened next . When i first heard them i didnt think anything, i thought they were fireworks, my questioned me asking if they were shots, i look over, see People Ducking and trying to run saying there was a shooter and it was just mass chaos, one of the points that i heard more shots we made that el paso is one of the safest cities closer together because in the country. At first it was boom, you never expected to happen to you our hearts go out to families, the boom, i knew it wasnt a handgun from how loud it shooting victims stand with a widerange of age
was. It sounded like ar or that we understand from young to older and they m14. Some type of gun like that and me and my husband had taken off just got on normal towards the back of the store and trying to push saturday like people are people out of our way and take them with us at on typical sorry the same time telling, hey, theres a shooter, afternoon. Lets run, flo follow the employees, thats when we went into the containers, stock containers, Freight Train containers which we had the shooting in are steel and they told Santa Fe Springs and us to hide in the last shooting at our church one in case the shooter in the last couple of came out and started shooting even more. Years. So you were back we hate covering the stories and we have to there with dozens of people . Cover them too often. Probably hundreds, more than 50, but not i want to go back to some of the information less than 200. That you gave us, you said you have one person in custody, 21yearold male and you said you were back there you said for 20 minutes between 15 and 20 or so. Casualties but youre not certain on the yeah. Number of fatalities. At that point you hadnt heard anything for a while . 15 to 20 people shot and no. Not sure how many of them have been killed. We came out of the containers because employees were trying to get us out because of elderly and kids and they were getting hot thats correct. And we heard more shots
we dont have that close to where we were information that we are prepared to release. In the back outside and rob what else if anything can you tell us they told us to get back about the 21yearold in and after that, like that you have in custody, have you learned of a potential 10 minutes they told us to come back out. Motive . At this point i would direct you to el paso pd and let as they decide to and i would make your point of contact but to the [inaudible] i 21yearold thats in custody, and, again, Law Enforcement did an amazing thing. As your guest i just heard a little bit of previous guest talking about the crime scene and theres one or two people shot, you can imagine the size of this i was looking at a story recently, in the last couple days where antifa is posting [inaudible conversations] they want to come to el paso and thats all we have right now. Do a 10 day siege. We dont need them coming in on september 1st. We didnt need them to begin [inaudible] with before this happened. I would say to antifa, scratch
texas off r ma map and dont co. Its not the time and place for them to come at any time, particularly in aftermath of what happened in el paso. Antifa, stay out of texas. Jillian youre listening to El Paso Police department giving gillian we had a guest earlier us update. Information will come from city leaders from who said he sees the societyal damage of mass narcissm, so many eeoc, that location will be announced and youll be able to hear from people that are copy cats, dont city leaders, chief of police, mayors and so see a reason to live and think theyre going to go out in a forth, this brief giving you update on where we blaze of glory, doing something need people to go, what we need people to do and like this. The status of the scene how much of a problem is this today . How do we get a grip on this itself. At this time, i will take any questions. Situation that seems to be [inaudible] we have ruled most of the shooters, its still increasing . Active, as of right now we have one person in well, that would be for custody. Psychologists and specialist, i dont have the status of the suspect right Law Enforcement, they would be the experts in this field. Now. After the School Shooting in i dont have that confirmation. Santa fe that we participated in i know that we do have three days of round table injured, i dont know discussions with all of the their status, as soon as experts and we learned a lot we have that information we will provide it but we dont want to do from them. And there are profiles to these anything prematurely until we have accurate facts for you. Types of shooters and well see [sirens] once we learn more about this shooter, this alleged shooter, right now we are clearing all the locations, this is a that well find out what profile large area including the mall, retail areas, we he fit. Are going through making but we clearly live in an age sure that anybody that where copy cat crime and trying we get to them and treating any person that is were injured in any to be a star on the internet and form so this is a large bring attention to yourself are crime scene, large area, we are going through it a lot to do with a lot of what and making sure that anybody in the area, happened today. But ill withhold judgment until we get more information on the ruling that no one is a shooter, how he fits the profile suspect and people that were separated or hurt of these other shooters. Are getting the care that they need. But it is a its a sad day in [inaudible] i dont have the texas and but as tax ans locations of the casualties, i know that always do, texans always do, there are casualties, i dont know the actual locations of them right they stand strong. The citizens will rally and now. The reports yes, there were reports of gunfire in texas, when we drop to our several locations. Knees, its in prayer, not mainly walmart and the because we give up. And were never going to give up mall. To the shooters, never give up [inaudible] to the law breakers and we pray to god and for this family and we did have initially parts, i can confirm that those reports were not true, we have confirmed that theres those involved in the shooting. Nothing going on related thank you for allowing me to be to this incident at the on for a moment. Center. Rob dan patrick, thank you so are casualties still much for your time. Inside the walmart . We do appreciate it. Were going to go to garrett medical personnel is tenney who has been on the scene attending to them, i for about an hour now and spoke dont know if they have to couple witnesses when he got been transported. There. Garrett, what else have you learned at this point . What about reporter well, you heard the big highlights from the [inaudible] Lieutenant Governor. I dont have any reports of a person the shooter is in custody. Arrested in horizon. We just spoke with the spokesman i do know that we have one person detained and one person in custody of the El Paso Police department right now, i dont have the location of where the person was detained a short time ago. But as soon as i get they said they dont believe that and we will have there is currently an imminent more Concrete Information we will threat to the community. Provide it. But they are searching multiple areas here. [inaudible] including predominantly at the walmart, including several [speaking in spanish] nearby areas as well including the mall. So they are searching the areas, just to be sure there are no other ongoing threats. One more time. We can tell you that just a initially parts of the weapon was a rifle, i
short time ago they moved us cant confirm that yet back a little bit further, so but initially it was about 10, 15 minutes ago, you rifle. We had no information and we have not put out could see there was police concrete response on staging outside of that, gearing what the motive for the up in heavy body armor and shooting is, we are helmets, looked like they were working at it and preparing to go inside. Transitioning to crime they are not letting their guard scene phase and down at this point. Developing the adding to what the Lieutenant Governor said, we have heard information and multiple stores rise of folks that were there the one man [inaudible] we are working with that had just pulled into the federal partners, fbi, parking lot with his mother and dea, all the federal agencies are out here they had just gotten out of assisting because this their car, started walking up to is a live area, we do the walmart when they say the shooter got out of a vehicle and have sheriffs opened fire right there in the department, pretty much every Law Enforcement parking lot, started shooting indies creaindiscriminantly. Assisting. El paso pd will take the lead on it but we are working with federal partners and state partners and Law Enforcement in the area. Go ahead. They pulled into the back of the the suspect in parking lot, laid down in their custody car until the shooting stopped. [inaudible] he jumped out of his vehicle, we are still developing that as soon as i have Concrete Information and identity
ran up, trying to see who he of the suspect, i will release it. Could help. Another woman that i spoke to the only thing i have is said she ran into the front of a male. The walmart, right after the only one shooter . Shooting had be began, and saw a as of right now we only have one person in custody, i dont know the particulars if there woman laying there on the ground were more than one, we who had been shot in the leg who have one person in was crying and was yelling, custody. Where is my son, where is my i dont know the ages or son. The woman said she had walked in to walmart with her son and at count. We have one person in custody as of right now. Some point when the shooting as far as i know no. Started had gotten separated from her son and believed her son ran and wassed hiding [speaking in spanish] somewhere in the walmart as the shooting was unfolding and she i dont have the was desperately looking for him condition of any casualties at all at that time. Whether they are another story that i mentioned fatalities or injuries, i dont have that as of to you is when i walked up, i saw a map who was maybe in his yet. Late 20s, on the shoulder of an older gentleman and i asked him if he was okay. If he knew someone inside that had been shot and he said my mom [inaudible] is dead. He said she had just gone into i dont know. Rt. As soon as he heard the shooting
happened i apologize. [inaudible] he ran into the front door and okay, just to be he said he saw his mom there on clear as of right now we dont think theres the ground and saw many bodies. Multiple but that could change, our initial he said there was blood, there reports was there was multiple, at this point were brains everywhere. It was the most horrific thing in time we have one person in custody, we he had ever seen. Dont know about multiple until we have concrete investigation heartbreaking stories. Based on all facts and you can imagine a walmart on a saturday afternoon like most investigation of the scene. Communities here, that is going to be a peak time when folks are it can change. Out here, buying things they as of this moment we have one person in custody, we are investigating the crime need for their weekend scene, should it change we will give you update but as of right now activities, for their parties, thats the information for the week ahead. That i have. The parking lot was very, very full. It still is. These cars arent going in or out. Its right next door to a walmart. I spoke to a number of [inaudible] mcdonalds employees, theres a mcdonalds inside the spanish, thats el paso walmart. They said they were on the police, one major opposite side of where the disparity that we are trying to get a handle gunman walked in and all they on here, the mayor of el heard were multiple shots being fired and they said all of a paso is reporting that there are multiple sudden it was like this enormous people in custody for this Mass Shooting at a panic broke out. They saw people just fleeing walmart in el paso today, but police right
from that everywhere. There saying they just have one person in custody and that is a big distinction that some were hiding, some were just needs to be we have running back and forth, trying to figure out which one is telling the truth here. To hide behind different clothes that were hanging there. But police did not rule out that this information may not they described a chaotic scene. This information could they say they got behind the change and may be multiple shooters, at counters as well and waited for this point that was a everything to be quiet before report and they do have one person in custody, they would get up and walk out he also said there were and were trying to talk to some reports of gunfire in folks that are working their way multiple locations, he said that the reports out from the scene here. Were the walmart and the malibu, again, that police talking to them, getting a lot of witness statements. Was reported and i know they were asking a lot of reported information and he wasnt confirming folks if anyone has seen the that. Shooter to try and get details about this man or shooter, i from what we understand, from what witnesses have told us this started in the should say. We dont know if its a man. We heard several people mention parking lot of walmart that. Police have not confirmed that. But to get as much details about in Cielo Vista Mall and moved inside Walmart Store and we were under this shooter that they can as the impression it was they try to figure out the contained but we are not background and the big question sure at this point. That we always have is why, what we are not sure how many led to this and whatne to carryt people are in custody at this point. The mayor and the Police Telling two different stories on that. Such a horrific attack. Gillian that is the big we will go back to steve rogers who has been with us for the last hour or question at this point, what is the motive. So, steve, obviously in we heard from the lieutenant a Fluid Information like governor, dan patrick, who said this there could be
the shooter is in custody, a misinformation, but thats a big distinct, how many people do you 21yearold male, that is what have in custody . We know. The Lieutenant Governor also a big distinction, said that there were between 15 what are the Lessons Learned . And 20 casualties. He didnt know how many the police did an excellent job down there, no doubt about it. Fatalities at that point. When it comes to thats the information were information, it is the waiting to hear right now. Commander on the scene that should be holding the Press Conferences lets bring in steve rogers, the because that commander is on the ground and has former Lieutenant Detective and the Accurate Information that he needs to get out member joint Terrorism Task to the public. Force. Thank you for being with us i learned this from the today. Were talking about this again, boston bombing when i this happened in el paso, texas was on the air at fox there was so much around 11 00 a. M. Local time information from mayors, senators and on and on there at the siela vista mall, and all the information they were given was the walmart outside the mall, inaccurate. Thats where were told the the Police Commander shooting happened. From everything you heard so came on we got accurate far, what do you make of this . Information. So your point is well taken, the job of those well, were certainly going to that are supposed to give this information to find out soon. Out is to ease tension, it was a very good job on the part of the Police Department to bring some calm to the community and give apprehend this individual alive. Accurate information. Because they will learn a lot so now we dont know, we dont know as you said but i will speculate about his psychological makeup. That if there are suspects in custody as you asked something earlier of the Lieutenant Governor, more or less how do we get a grip on dr. Porsha said they this stuff and how do we control
would be interrogated a lot of this. And one or two people obviously, we know its very, very difficult to prevent are directly involved with the shooter that, Something Like this, a random indeed, changes as we shooting. But i got to hell tel tell yous move forward. Jillian you ponder if there are potentially multiple shooters in going through my mind is the this situation and they Social Media Giants need to step have will go with this, have confirmed one up and help. Person in custody right all week long, you know what now, you wonder who else ive been watching on social where else in the media, kids getting beat up neighborhood theyll be canvassing, who else are they looking for, you bullies, people imitating dont know. Beheading people and on and on and on. The sad part about this, it youre absolutely right and this is why the police have a wide perimeter and as i said could trigger someone like this earlier, theyre looking individual to do something as at this individuals drastic as he did. Social media forms, so we need to come together, Work Together and to understand telephones, video and, look, im not putting the footage, very, very whole blame on the social media important. Did anybody drive him there, did he get dropped off somewhere, giants, but ive got to tell you, ive been in Law Endorsement a long time and i did he just say, take me know when someones off balance to the mall and start mentally, theyll see Something Like this and they say you know shooting without the persons knowledge. What, maybe ill go out and make a name for myself. Rob weve got information on the police are doing very methodical search not only in the victims here. Were told the del sol medical establishment where the shooter was but the
entire perimeter, so its a wide crime scene center in el paso has received six victims of this mass and this is not going to shooting at the walmart and then end until tomorrow morning. The University Medical center of rob sad reality, steve n so many in so many el paso received another 11. So thats 17 people right there cases somebody knew something and might be up with the person and that have been shot and at least knew this was a possibility but didnt got to the hospital. Take it seriously enough we dont know what happened and youve talked about after that what do you make of the importance if you Thmake Thefact that this 21yean see something, say something. If you know that person that did this i still alive, dos thats strange that you suspect might be up to something, if they say Something Like this, that tell you anything about dont take it as casual him . It sure does. Reference or maybe they are frustrated with this person probably has a something because, you vision of themselves being on know, sometimes it does end up that this happens tv, the court case, there will and this could have been be a lot of talk about this individual. A lot of these individuals do exactly what they do for that everted. Yeah, youre right, smallest thing a person reason. They want become in their mind can say to an individual eyeball to eyeball or famous. I also would add that it is a social media. Good thing in respect to the what redeeming value, is there any point in putting violent acts on investigation as the police move social media, none at forward. Theyre going to be talking to this individual. There were reports of multiple all. But when people see people on social media shooters. They still dont know if theres talking about or actually filming violent acts they need to say anyone out there. The perimeter is far and wide. Something and then up to
the police will look at shell Law Enforcement to follow up and take action but we do find out inevitable not all casings, points of trajectory but most of the with regard to the weapons. Investigations we have this individual, i always said conducted in the past, all you along with all these somebody saw something, somebody hea shootings, its an asset to Law Enforcement to take these anything. Individuals alive because youre going to find out motive. Let this be a Lesson Learned as the good youll find out if anyone else doctor said earlier was involved with them. Moving forward this is how the public can get youll find out how did they get involved in the very there. Did this person drive there, did least giving the police an opportunity to someone drop them off. Prevent Something Like this from happening. Psychologically, the person may think that theyre going to make jillian steve, this could not be the case but i want to mention themselves famous but they become a big asset to law this because people who live in the area and not enforcement. Gillian after this person is questioned, obviously then comes sure if they should go outside of homes, police the steps of or maybe theyre are not ruling out the doing it right now of trying to fact that there could be multiple shooters in access this persons home, trying to access this persons this, they are not confirming at this point computer, trying to find out if or multiple suspects the gun was legally purchased by anyway, all we know that one person is in custody that person. Youre absolutely right. As were speaking, theres but police in Press Conference did they forensic analysis taking place report of gunfire in multiple locations, the on all of his electronic locations on the same property the walmart equipment. And mall, thats what he youre talking about laptops, made reference to a few minutes ago, not exactly confirming that personal computers, telephones, information just saying that they were trying to
anything electronically work out details. Maintains an electronic you wonder if you do footprint including telephone have a situation where calls. So all of that is being analyzed you have multiple shooters in one location right now because whats or multiple suspects in important to police is if there one location, could was anyone else involved, what there be others is in that electronic equipment throughout the may hold the key to that door. Community . Well, you never know, right, what if a couple rob if you are just joining of suspects or shooters, us, a couple updates from the if you will, which is last 20 minutes or so. Not confirmed, got in a car and decided to get we have had a Mass Shooting at a out of the area soon. I recommend to people, walmart in el paso, texas on the stay locked in your homes, not the time to east side of the city. Go anywhere, lock your doors, lock windows, we have a number of people shot, stay locked in your homes, see or hear as many as 17 taken to anything suspicious you call the police right hospitals. We have reports of multiple fay away. Mullfatalities, we dont know hw as you said, you just dont know, rather be safe than sorry. Many. We have a 21yearold man in right, im sure you were listening to Press Conference, did you get custody after the shooting. The sense that this was you can see video from the scene, as its slowly its over . No. Still being cleared at this point. Not at all. People still have been walking this is not over, they still have tactical out an getting out from various units out there, look at the forensic analysis of the electronic equipment places. Its a big mall, it has a sams its going to take a while. Club, a walmart, a shopping this is not over until i hear the Police Center as well. We had a number of people shot, commander, not a mayor, not a senator, no one, a number of People Killed. The Police Commander on the ground saying, this
we dont have exact numbers. But one person is in custody and is over, we have concluded at least the the scenes is no longer active initial part of the investigation which is at this point which is a major apprehending anyone that needed to be accomplishment for police to at least get the remaining people apprehended, coast is there to some kind of safety. Clear, until then, this was not over. Steve, where does the Investigation Go at this point . Right now, the forensic rob word from police that there was no more analysis of all the electronic active threat, obviously still active scene but the threat to the public equipment is critically at this point had been important. More critical than that is the contained by police and we do understand from information that theyll be able to glean from this shooter. Police, the latest word is that one suspect or and let me add this. I know we say it quite often. One person is in custody you see something, say and even though the something. Many, many times during the mayor of el paso said there were multiple course of these investigations people in custody, we are still trying to get we find that people saw to the bottom of that. Something, they heard something, and never said anything. There are still couple and im talking about a week, a of questions, Garrett Tenney there at the scene in el paso for us, month prior to this incident. Garrett, have you so itsmportant for learned anything new in the police to gather all this the last few minutes . Information, put it together including by the way video well, rob, jillian, cameras are all over these from talking to witnesses here im trying to piece together the timeline of exactly malls, theyll be able to find out how this person got there, what happened, one of if anyone else brought them the most difficult things to do early on in there, et cetera. L theyll collect all this these types of information together. Situations, the woman we but this individual is the one were interviewing on air thats critical right now at earlier, she painted a
this hour to get vital bit of a picture of what it was like, we are told the initial report that information. Gillian steve rogers, thank the shooting came in you so much for joining us and 11 00 a. M. Local time, she told us that as soon for giving us the information. We want to go to fox news as she heard gunshot break out that she and channels Mark Meredith who is live in berkley heights. Her husband along with more than 100 people thats where the president is staying. Rushed into the back of i understand the president has walmart, back in the storage area and that responded . Reporter we got word from the employees there put the white house, saying that the president has been briefed on them into the large the situation that weve been Freight Containers essentially that you see reporting on all afternoon. The white house says the on 18 wheelers made of president and the administration metal for protection in are continuing to monitor the case someone the gunman came back there situation. The white house saying that the and bullets started president has spoken with flying, more protection in getting out of the attorney general bill barr and open. The texas governor.

happening in el paso. Round of gunshots start the white house says its to break out closer to continuing to monitor whats going on. The president also speaking with the store, based on that officials including the attorney description, it would seem that the gunman general as well aztecs as came in front doors of governor. As texas governor. Walmart, over 20 minutes worked his way its possible the president may further back into the corner of walmart where tweet about the situation a little later. Weve been monitoring twitter. There. We havent seen a statement from so from that dejipcion his directly. It seems the shooter this is coming from the deputy press secretary. Were here with the rest of the was inside for a period of time and gunfire was press pool that travels with the taking place all around, president when he goes anywhere we are not sure the second round of gunfire around the world. That was when police had well wait to see if we hear come into the scene and were engaging him at that point, we dont know if thats the case or not. From him. Gillian lets tell you whats going on. Police are still trying to get facts together 11 00 a. M. Local time in el before they release that to us, but she said at paso, texas we got reports of a that point when they shooting at the siela vista herd second round of mall, in the Shopping Centers gunshots, they went back to metal containers and theres a sams club, a walmart, stayed there for another various different stores, 10 or 15 minutes before sharing that same parking lot as walmart employees the mall.

Were inside the walmart, outside the parking lot, theyve been jillian El Paso Police shaken to their core. Tweeted a short time ago that they were setting lets take a listen to one up a Reunion Center at eyewitness. I go to the mall, i hear all mcarthur middle school, have you seen people the people run, run, i said what leave that location . Happened . The manager said go, go, go, go, go through the room, we dont have him anymore. [ indiscernible ] he froze up there. I look at the video. We are learning about this as the afternoon moves on here. The movie, how theres real

One boy, six women and one we are going to go to garrett has been talking manager, so we hide, the to witnesses since he got to the scene which was shortly after the shooting happened, he managers office. Was already in el paso rob there you go. Area for another story and he got there really theres somebody that had to hide from bullets on a saturday afternoon. Were going to back to quick. He had been talking to people that watched this all go down and a number of People Killed tat walmart, lets listen dr. Darren porcher. What do you hope to learn, in to some of the people knowing that this 21yearold he had spoken to. Shooter thats in custody is still alive . What would you ask him . Past the produced sek and we were going to the shooter presents a Freezer Foods where frozen dinners are and Treasure Chest of information for us moving forward as law my husband heard shots and asked me what they enforcement. Were, i wasnt really well gain as steve rogers paying attention. Mentioned earlier, well gain what his ideology was. Closer together, thats well find out who his when i thought it was gunshots and i look over, we were towards the end of the aisle and people were like theres coconsistent Spir Aconspiratord a shooter and running inside, so then i told him theres a shooter and we took off running any. Were always finding new towards the back of the store and the employees told us to go outside, discoveries in investigating these active shooters. It keeps happening. Out of the stock room whether its the news agency, and told us to go into whether its a school, wherever the containers where the the place may be, everyone has stock is, we went back these active shooter drills. There and they hid us in and when we participate in these the last one because there was a lot of us. Active shooter degrees, what we want is current information. Jillian youre hearing when i say current, meaning of stories of Eyewitness Accounts and how people something that happened recently were able to take that we can apply to the shelter anywhere they could inside stores. Training, the active shooter training. One of the things i mentioned lets bring in dr. Darren again, earlier is one of the first doctor, you have been things you do after you run is with us for a long time now and obviously we are still getting you want to obtain a level of conflicting, getting new information, what we do cover and concealment. Know from the police at not everyone knows what cover and concealment is. 3 40 p. M. Eastern you want good cover and conference that one person in custody. Concealment. You want Something Like a concrete pillar, something to that effect. Yes, we have one person in custody and goes back to what i mentioned earlier, this something thats go to protect you from whatever round thats person has Treasure Chest of Information Intelligence that we can use as Law Enforcement but when i hear a lot of being used by the shooter. You want to have ample cover. The people that were thats one of the things that we injured or innocent can find from this person, why bystanders, one of the did they come in there and do things that i hear from it. Everyone, theyre in a State Of Shock and they is he a part of an organization,
dont know what to do and i think from the a Larger Organization that is committing to these types of publics perspective, whats important for horrific atrough atrocities movg them to know and forward. That being said, where do we go understand is as i mentioned earlier is to from here. When i say where do we go from run, engage level of here, meaning what is the next step for us in connection with covering concealment and then dial 911. Society. And i mentioned earlier before one of the things that you should always do as the pendulum has shifted and a citizen is know where you are, know where the this is becoming more so the entrances are and know where exits are. Societyal norm and witnessing you know if you have to these Mass Shootings as opposed get out of a place, god forbid you know exactly where you need to go. To it being an abeb aberation. Rob that awareness is key, doctor, youre right about that. We do appreciate you, we want you to stay with i hear people say gun control. Us, we want to update people real quick we have more guns than people in obviously a mass the united states. Thats not going to happen. Thaa casualty situation, Mass Shooting in walmart in el paso, texas today, just a couple of hours ago, we have multiple fatalities, we have as many as 17 people progun control advocate. I think its a people thing. Injured and taken to the guns dont kill people. Hospitals there, one shooter is in custody, its the person that pulls the we are going to take a trigger that causes ones death. Quick break now and so we have to look at how can we reset everything and come back with more put in play the necessary coverage on the
situation in el paso, fortifications that will protect texas. We will be right back. Us as a result. Gillian we want to go back to a sound bite from police when they spoke a shor a short time. We have one person in custody. Were not going to go into detail. Multiple fatalities, and several people that have been transported. Gillian that is police giving an update about 20 minutes ago about one person and we learned it was the shooter in custody, a 21yearold male. Dr. Porcher, we have these conversations far too often than wed like to, one is too many to liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Be perfectly honest with you. A lot of people after we have a shooting like this, people say well, nothings changing. Im curious inside the El Paso Police department after this goes down, what are they doing, what are they taking away from this, what are they learning so we can help better our situations in the future . . One of the first things
theyll look at is the entrance, how did this person come in. And i give you eerie similarities with the nikolas cruz shooting in parkland. It started in the parking lot. As this one did as well. He started firing in the parking lot before he even entered that ive always been im still going for my best. Even though i live with a higher risk of stroke mall. So what type of fortifications due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. Can we put at the front doors to so if theres a better treatment than warfarin, prevent people like this coming ill go for that. In and continuing further eliquis. Carnage. Thats the first thing. Eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk the second thing, the better than warfarin. Containment strategy. Plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. What is the Containment Strategy eliquis is fdaapproved and has both. In a mall like this. Of course, theyre going to have whats next . Sharing my roots. Active shooter drills, things to dont Stop Taking Eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, that effect. How do we effectively contain as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. This person or any shooter for eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. That matter coming into a large scale establishment such as dont take eliquis if you have an Artificial Heart Valve this. We dont want to let that person or abnormal bleeding. Have the ability to move freely while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily throughout the location. So they may want to put in place and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Some type of door locking seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, mechanism in these malls and like unusual bruising. This is something that runs kind of similar to a correction eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Alphas it. Tell your doctor about all planned whenever you have a riot in a medical or dental procedures. Prison, one of the first things they do is they cordon it off in eliquis, the number one cardiologistprescribed blood thinner. Ask your doctor if eliquis that particular area, they close is whats next for you. The gates on both sides and its only restricted to that with tough food, your dentures may slip and fall. Particular area where the individuals or the assailants fixodent ultramax hold gives you the strongest hold ever are located in connection with a to lock your dentures. Riot. Thats something that could be so now you can eat tough food without worry. Used in daytoday civilian life. I think thats kind of what the fixodent and forget it. Focus is, the Containment Strategy. Rob we have an update i want to goat your response to. The el paso mayor is reporting that there are multiple suspects in custody for this crime. And at this point we dont know if there were multiple shooters but perhaps there was only one shooter and he had help or maybe there were more than one shooter. Gillian or driver. Rob driver, anything like jillian it is 4 00 oclock on the east coast, 2 00 oclock in that. Does that change things in your el paso, texas, this is mind, that this was a team where we have been following Breaking News right now, im jillian effort . No, it doesnt. Mele along rob schmitt, one of the things that i look back at as a prior law youre looking at a map right now and you see enforcement officer is we widen right there the field of
the net when we take in mall and walmart, this is the location of a suspects. The standard of proof necessary to take someone in is probable Mass Shooting, we are told by police that one cause. Its not hard for police to person is in custody, establish probable cause in multiple injuries, we do connection with this particular not know the number of individual, be it was there a fatalities or injuries at this point. Conversation that he had with someone. They can get up on the phones what we do know from relatively quick and find out eyewitnesses, this started outside of the who if anyone he engaged with walmart. Prior to going to the location rob right, started outside the walmart, young man wearing a or it can be something as simple black shirt and cargo as someone that held the door pants holding what open for him as he went into looked like a rifle, walmart. Lieutenant governor says we dont know what that is. Its a 21yearold man in custody for this but one thing i can tell you is shooting, witnesses say he opened fire on people we always widen the net and we walking out of walmart, decrease it as we move forward walking into because we dont want to let any suspects off the hook. So actually i understand from what im hearing right now, it appears there was only one gunman. Were speaking from a position of conjecture because im in the newsroom. At the same token, i only believe theres the one gunman and the coconsistent spiconspie someone that drove the getaway
car, someone that held the door, someone that signaled to the shooter, hey, go this way. Thats something were going to have to look to mov moving forw. It goes back to what i mentioned earlier, the Containment Strategy in these largescale areas like this place, what Law Enforcement is going to focus on moving forward, how can we effectively contain active shooters when they occur as opposed to allowing them to spurt all over the place. I gave you the example of what happens in a correction alphas it or prison. They effectively contain it in a small area where it happens and it Doesnt Spill Over into other areas. Gillian dr. Porcher, it must be an important tool for police in the area to be able to have in such a short period of time what we are told as the shooter in custody and according to the el paso mayor, multiple suspects in custody, to be able to have multiple people to question in just a few hours from when this happened
