Bear. It wasnt one of those cute, little bears. That was a big bear. They are no longer fans of the chicago cubs this morning, i can tell you. Well get more on that story a little bit. We start this Tuesday Morning with new details on what led National Security adviser Michael Flynn losing his job. Yeah, the former acting attorney general, sally yates, testified that she urgently warned the white house that flynn could be blackmailed by the russians. But the president reacted quickly on twitter saying, the russia trump collusion story is a total hoax. When will this taxpayer funded charade end . Abcs janai norman has more details from washington. Good morning, janai. Reporter kendis and diane, good morning. This is the first time we heard a detailed account from sally yates about her warning to the white house that Michael Flynn had been compromised, but ultimately yates was fired first. New details about the National Security concerns that rocked the early days of the trump presidency. Former acting attorney general sally yates testifying she met twice with white House Counsel to warn that then National Security adviser Michael Flynn might have been lying to the white house and had discussed president obamas sanctions against the kremlin for election meddling with the Russian Ambassador despite telling the Vice President he hadnt. The Vice President was unknowingly making false statements to the public and because we believe that general flynn was compromised with respect to the russians. We believe that the russians knew this, and that created a compromised situation, a situation where the National Security adviser essentially could be blackmailed by the russians. Reporter but flynn remained on the job for 18 days after the initial warning even participating in a phone call between President Trump and vladimir putin. In that time it was yates who was fired for not defending trumps controversial muslim travel ban. Donald j. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the united states. Reporter monday a panel of Appeals Court judges hearing a challenge to the travel ban deciding whether trumps past antimuslim statements could be used against him. Hes never repudiated what he said about the muslim ban. Its still on his website. Reporter and as of monday a controversial post was still on President Trumps website calling for a complete shutdown of muslim immigration to the u. S. , but within minutes of abc news asking the White House Press secretary about that, the post was removed. Kendis and diane. Yeah, our cecilia vega asking that question and getting actions moments later. Thank you, janai. And thousands of additional american troops may soon head to afghanistan. Senior military and intelligence officials reportedly recommending the expansion to pressure the taliban into working out a deal with the afghan government. The extra troops would offer advice and training to afghan forces. The new policy is also said to be supported by top cabinet officials. It still has to be approved by President Trump. And today South Koreans are voting for their new president. The vote comes just weeks after a Corruption Scandal ended park geunhyes presidency and it also comes as north korea is closer to conducting another nuclear test. Election results are set to be confirmed tomorrow. And emmanuel macron, the newly elected president of france, is set to take office sunday, just a week after his landslide victory over candidate marine le pen. Macron, a moderate, will likely meet President Trump for the first time at a nato summit in belgium later this month. And there was a big scare at a busy train station in paris overnight. Dozens of Police Officers started evacuating passengers. The operation apparently focused on a train from northern france. But there were no arrests and police arent saying what was behind that evacuation. France has been under a state of emergency after a series of terror attacks there. Yeah, and those kind of incidents the reason that the tsa back here at home is launching a new program aimed at deterring terror attacks. The goal is to protect socalled soft targets, those areas outside security zones at the nations airports and other transit hubs. The new Program Hopes to integrate all levels of Law Enforcement to help plug the security gaps. Breaking overnight, police say theyve arrested the man behind a string of random shootings that terrorized areas of phoenix. 23yearold Aaron Saucedo faces 26 felony counts in connection with the shootings that killed nine people. Now, police say he randomly stalked his victims, ambushing most of them outside of their hopes and police say there may be more victims. Saucedo is already in jail on that other murderrelated charge. All right, time now for a look at the nations weather. That powerful storm system that dumped heavy rain and hail onto Southern California did this to coors field in denver. That hail was so thick, the rockies were even forced to postpone last nights game with the cubs to a split doubleheader this afternoon. East of denver, this funnel cloud was caught on camera swirling and taking form before eventually dissipating luckily, and noaa says this april was the second wettest april on record for the whole country, nearly an inch above the average. All right, well, our friend jimmy kimmel was back on his show overnight for the First Time Since revealing his new son billys heart condition. And he jumped right back into the Health Care Debate while talking to senator bill cassidy. The Louisiana Republican had suggested the Senates Health care bill should include a jimmy kimmel test of covering preexisting conditions, but in a fiscally conservative way. Kimmel also made light of the issue. So now the Health Care Bill moves from the house to the senate where hopefully some kind of common sense will prevail. And i would like to apologize for saying that children in america should have health care. It was insensitive. It was offensive, and i hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me. Kimmel also showed some new video of billy. He says that he is getting bigger, he is sleeping well, he even joked that billy can read. Billy is doing well. Just a month after being born.

Were going to have much more coverage on the latest on this on good morning america. Now to a dramatic rescue on a philadelphia street. A 9yearold girl was hit by an suv and pinned underneath one of the wheels, but she wasnt there for long. Bystanders quickly got together and lifted the suv with their bare hands to free that child likely saving her life. She was taken to the hospital in critical condition. Were going to turn now to some wild video from overseas. Take a look. Dusan vinzik was among a group of mountain bikers in slovakia in europe when this bear comes out of nowhere and starts to take charge after his friend. Vinzik screamed and the bear peeled off down the hill. Its not clear why the bear gave up that chase, but im sure theyre thankful. Just a scream, huh . Yeah. And new video of a shocking circus attack. Everyone here, we should point out, is okay. You can see a lion locking its jaws around a trainers throat and dragging him around. This happened overseas in france. Now, families in the audience running away in fear, but that longtime trainer was able to get up and walk away recovering from some serious injuries. Tough video to watch. And we are hearing from a very brave 10yearold who escaped the jaws of an alligator. Juliana ossa says she was in about a foot of water in a florida lake last week when that alligator attacked her. The nearly ninefoot gator wrapped its entire mouth around her leg, and she told inside edition what she did next. What they taught me at gatorland, so i put my two fingers up its nostrils. It couldnt breathe, so it had to breathe from its mouth. It opened its mouth and it let my leg out. Smart girl. She says other than some stitches, shes expected to be okay, and she had just learned that nostril trick at a gator park she went to not too long ago. Were going to have to keep track of that. Scream for a bear and the nostril trick for an alligator. Time now for some sports. The Golden State Warriors are still undefeated in the nba playoffs, and we get the highlights now from espn. Good morning, america. Hes stan, im neil. Were taping this during a commercial break of sportscenter. A little known fact there. We got the warriors taking on the jazz, game four of their series, warriors won the previous three, so they had the brooms with them, and steph curry and company are moving on. Curry had 30 points to lead all scorers, got that to go somehow over rudy gobert. Draymond green helped out. He had a tripledouble. The warriors are 220 when Draymond Green gets a tripledouble, so you know they won this one. Curry and company will wait on the winner of the rockets spurs series. That series is tied at two game as piece so san antonio will im sorry, golden state, rather, will get a weeks worth of rest as they beated jazz, 12195 to get the sweep. How about a little baseball .

As after a dvt blood clot,ital i sure had a lot to think about. What about the people i care about . Including this little girl. And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i asked my doctor. And he recommended eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Yes, eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Both made me turn around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis the right treatment for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. Time for the pulse, and we start with kind of a creative effort on an italian mayors part to boost residency in his community. So, first he posted a video of a sunrise in the small village of bormida in northewest italy. And, yes, its nice, but it didnt do the trick of attracts residents. So now the mayor is smart offering cold hard cash, nearly 2200 to move there. He says the rent is cheap and heres the selling point, theres high speed wifi. In case thats not enough, it is 50 miles to the nearest city. Less than 400 people live there right now, and one of them admits theres not a whole lot to do but village life is definitely free of stress. All right. Hes trying to build up the population. It will get there. In the meantime, a man in israel is proving its all in the advertising and he now has more takers than he can handle. Instead of placing a regular ad to sell his old suv, he used his skills as a visual effects artist to create this masterpiece. It shows everything his 96 suzuki can and cannot do from driving underwater to cruising with dinosaurs.
