This morning, large fires are burning in at least five states, red flag weather warnings now up in washington and oregon meaning conditions are perfect for those flames to spread. The heat and those dry winds are expected to stick around for a few more days. For Good Morning America, Clayton Sandell, abc news, denver. That is a powerful fire. Now to that nightmare in the sky. Severe turbulence on an overseas flight so bad the cabin cracked and passengers thrown from their seats, 20 injured, 2 critically. Abcs terry moran has the latest from london. Good morning, terry.

You see them there and you can sense some of the serseverity o injuries. Head and neck injuries as you said, 20 passenger, three crew members were hospitalized and this, this is what it looked like on board. Passengers thrown around by severe turbulence slammed into the ceiling. That hole punched in the overhead compartment was made by a passengers head of the other ceiling panels cracked. Most of the damage at the back of the plane. Many passengers were sleeping and some not wearing seat belts. The turbulence lasted for several minutes. We are told by passengers one of them saying it was like the end of the world. Just a really frightening flight there. Terry, i know youve been looking into how new planes will have new technology to deal with this turbulence. Reporter its amazing, george. I was at the air show here in england yesterday, one of the major air shows in the world. New passenger jets have these incredibly sophisticated computers on board. A next generation advance. They will make instantaneous adjustments in speed and altitude heading into turbule e turbulence, and it should help with this effect, but basic listen, wear your seatbelt. And tie it tight. Okay, terry moran, thanks so much. Also this morning, new controversy in the immigration debate. A Pulitzer Prize journalist, also an undocumented immigrant held at the texas border. Jim avila is live with that story. Good morning, jim. Reporter good morning, lara. Jose antonio vargas, one of this countrys biggest advocates for Immigration Reform spent a day in custody of the Border Patrol arrested along the border, and detained right along with the kids and mothers from Central America he went to help. Americas most famous undocumented immigrant arrested and detained tuesday by the Border Patrol in mcallen, texas, speaking first to abc news about the ordeal . It was really surreal and scary and very emotional thinking that im getting arrested for boarding a plane in my own country. Im going to tell you something, that i havent told a lot of people, im actually an undocumented immigrant. Reporter jose antonio vargas, a Pulitzer Prizewinning author and documentarian who came to the u. S. From the philippines at the age of 12 went to the texas mexico border this week to document the humanitarian crisis underway among Central American unaccompanied children. He has no u. S. Drivers license, birth certificate or passport. I just didnt realize going down to mcallen that that was the situation, that Border Patrol would be checking my passport right next to tsa. Reporter when he tried to travel back north a Border Patrol agent stationed at the airport cuffed him and sent him to be processed holding him for eight hours releasing him with an Immigration Court date. I got out. Many people are not getting out. Reporter earlier in the day vargas tweeted this picture showing his filipino passport and miniature version of the u. S. Constitution he traveled with. Vargas has lived in the states for more than 20 years and considers himself an american. Youre talking about the most privileged undocumented immigrant in america. Can you imagine all of these other 11 Million People who just want to live their lives with dignity. I dare any politician to go down there, look at the eyes of these children and tell them, im going to send you home. Reporter vargas insists this was no stunt. Hes never been arrested before and he travels all over the country. The Border Patrol says its agents are always stationed at airports near the border and vargas openly told one he had no legal papers but had no choice but to arrest him. Lara . Jim, thank you. Now, george, i know there were interesting tv last night. Jon stewart, Hillary Clinton. Thats right. Shes had this summerlong book tour and has all the trappings of a president ial campaign much last night, when she sat down with stewart, she dropped some of her biggest hints yet about a real run and jon karl has the details. Reporter after a media blitz that hasnt always gone all that smoothly, Hillary Clinton received a friendlier reception last night from jon stewart. Jon stewart began by saying Hillary Clinton was going to make a big announcement on his show. She is here solely for one reason, to publicly and definitively declare her candidacy for the president of the united states. [ cheers and applause ] reporter when she came on stage she didnt make any declarations but amidst all the joking, she came pretty close. I think i speak for everybody when i say no one cares, they just want to know if youre running for president. [ laughter ] i was going to make an announcement but i saw you kind of spoiled it for me. No, no, no. So thats a yes . The big spoiler. So, you know, im just going to have to reconsider. Sure. Where i go do it. A little confusion. Do you like commuting to work or do you like a home office. Whats your you know, ive spent so many years commuting id kind of prefer a home office. Would you like to have corners or not to have corners . I dont know. You know, i think that the world is so complicated, the fewer corners that you can have are better. Reporter hillarys media blitz has not been all laughs. Shes come under fire for taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees from colleges and universities where students are facing tuition hikes and shes been called tone deaf for saying this to diane sawyer. We came out of the white house not only dead broke but in debt. That was an inartful use of words, obviously. Reporter the appearance on the daily show comes at the end of one of the most aggressive book rollouts political book rollouts we have seen but even though theres been a lot of publicity its sold pretty well, its been replaced about a book that is harshly negative about Hillary Clinton. You see both sides. Yet, you have to give jon stewart credit. He used the jokes to get her to answer the question. Reporter no question about that. Jon karl, thanks very much. Lets go to amy, back with todays top stories. Good morning, everyone. We begin with the more than 100,000 people who have been placed on alert warned to flee their homes because of air strikes from israel, fired into gaza this morning after Palestinian Militants rejected a ceasefire. More than 200 palestinians have now been killed in the conflict. Israel just suffered its first fatality. People in gaza heeding the warnings. These palestinians were actually sleeping in the yard of a United Nations school today after evacuating their homes. Powerful pictures there. Also breaking right now, a killer typhoon lashing the philippines. Nearly 500,000 people have been forced to evacuate. A 10foot storm surge was predicted. At least 11 people have died. And this morning a published report indicates General Motors may have withheld information about crashes caused by those faulty ignition switches. At least 1 deaths are blamed on the problem. The New York Times reports documents showed gm knew about the problem but evaded questions from federal Safety Agencies on several occasions. The documents could play a key role in the justice departments criminal investigation. A top gm lawyer testifies tomorrow on capitol hill. Frightening moments along the las vegas strip. Gunfire breaking out inside the upscale fashion show mall. One man was shot in the neck. He ran down an escalator. Well, a man is under arrest on cape cod accused of breaking into the Kennedy Compound and staying for hours. He reportedly answered the phone when ted kennedy jr. Called and thats when police were alerted. The suspect is described as a disabled veteran who told police he was looking for singer katy perry. Well, a close call at this racetrack in ohio. A driver was wes allen was recording, look at this, when two cars collided in front of him and a car struck him from behind flying over him. Look at that. Barely missing his head. Remarkably nobody injured. Finally it was a true allstar tribute for derek jeter during his 14th and final appearance in the midsummer classic. [ applause ] number 2, derek jeter. He received a 63second standing ovation when he walked to the plate, and then, you got to love this, in true fashion, he hit a leadoff double. Later while leaving the field fans applauded for 2 1 2 minutes as Frank Sinatras New York New York played over the speakers. Jeter was repeatedly waving to the crowd. The American League went on to win, 53. That there was an emotional moment. But just before this all began there was a truly bizarre moment. Yep. Oh, wow. The perhaps oddest class photo ever. All of the major League Mascots took to the field. The only one missing was homer the brave from atlanta. I knew it. Yeah. Oh, well. Maybe they can put a little space in there for him from cheering and crying to head scratching. Whats that . Such an emotional moment. It was. And he deserved every minute of it. Yep. I love how he ended, boom, with a double. That was great. Turn to a health alert for anyone headed to lakes. More than 200 people became sick after swimming in Horseshoe Lake in Washington State last weekend. Health authorities now investigating. Dr. Richard besser talked to them about what happened. I talked to the Health Investigator and its a mystery. 200 complaints but they think far more got sick. Heres what had happened. The weather had been terrible then this last weekend it was beautiful. And the lake was just overwhelmed with numbers of people. 2500 people a day. And what the complaints are of typical stomach flu symptoms, he thinks it may be norovirus, so stomach flu symptoms, people got sick 12 to 48 hours after being there and some who had contact with them got sick, as well. Norovirus is highly contagious, one of the big causes of outbreaks and this lake actually had an outbreak of norovirus a couple of years ago. What should people do to protect this themselves . You think of a lake as a clear, pristine place and it is except when its overtaken and its like taking a bath with 2,000 strangers. Thank you. So i mean heres heres theres things you can do. When youre in the lake, you dont want to swallow the water. When you get out you want to wash your hands before you eat food. You want to go to a lake thats monitored, because theyre testing it and if you see any green film, that could be algae or a smell is one of the leading causes of this. You dont want to go in those lakes. Lakes can be wonderful. You just have to take some precautions. Rich besser, thanks so much. Thanks so much, rich. Turning to a dangerous deja vu.

I looked over and im like what the hell and they were kind of driving a little sporadically like weaving. Reporter at one point they were driving in the wrong lane. Eventually a deputy caught up with them but not before the boy joyrider drove the car straight into a ditch. These tire tracks marking the spot. The boys werent hurt and the car was undamaged but it turns out this wasnt the young duos first road trip. I just watched a car being stolen here by these two little kids. They cant be more than 8 years old. Reporter in june they stole a different car from a parking lot before driving more than twice the speed limit to go to their grandmothers house. Theres a red grand am that is using both lanes, just weaving back and forth really bad of the. Reporter that time, these two drivers pulled in front of them to get them to stop. I cant believe they got back on the road after they got hurt almost the first time. Reporter theyre looking into possible child neglect and once the investigation is complete itll go to the d.

This morning the boys mother is speaking out for the first time as her husband stands trial for murder. Abcs ryan owens has her story. We have no comment for you. Reporter for weeks she has silently stood by her man. Her husband, justin ross harris, accused of murdering their little boy cooper by leaving him to die in an suv on a scorching june day in atlanta. But this morning, Leanna Harris is breaking her silence releasing a statement through her attorney. For leanna, coopers death has been devastating. She will never again be able to tuck him into bed at night and return later to check on him. Leanna harris has not been charged with a crime and her husband has pleaded not guilty but her actions and her words since cooper died last month have gotten the attention of the public and investigators. She didnt show any emotion when he notified her of coopers death. Reporter police say leanna somehow knew what happened when she went to pick him up. All of a sudden she states, you know, ross must have left him in the car. Reporter this case has focused americans attention on children in hot cars this summer. In 96degree houston Good Samaritans armed with a hammer shattered the windows of this jeep monday evening to rescue two children after their mother says she accidentally locked them inside. But prosecutors say little coopers death was no accident. His mothers statement does not mention her husband or the charges he faces. Her attorney simply says she mourns coopers death deeply in her own private way. For Good Morning America, ryan owens, abc news, dallas. Such a sad story. Were going to turn to the retired schoolteacher on trial for trying to kill his wife by pushing her off a cliff. Complication is he fell off the cliff too. He claims it was an accident and she says it was attempted murder. Mara schiavocampo has the story. Reporter attempted murder charges and several counts of assault and the motive here was money after lisa black inherited millions from her father. In a maine courtroom this morning the case against retired social studies teacher Charles Black is just getting under way. Tuesday black watched emotionless as prosecutors laid out their case against him claiming the 71yearold tried to kill his now exwife lisa black by hitting her in the head with a rock and pushing her off an 800foot cliff. Shell tell you that she was begging for her life, that she was speaking about her two daughters and begging that he not do this. Reporter in opening arguments the District Attorney says Charles Black he wanted his then wife dead because she recently inherited millions from her father and the two fought about money and lisa discovered he was having an online affair. What youll hear is evidence of two motives, one, money and a second, another woman. Reporter according to Court Documents the couple went for a picnic and a hike in april 2011 when lisa black says she was hit on the head several times and that charles threw her over the edge of the mountain. Officials say she survived only by landing on a rock ledge a few feet from the top. In an unusual twist, lisa black reported that Charles Black fell just moments later. Lisa black told police she thought her husband was chasing her down the mountain when he fell. And in Court Documents she says she felt as if he had been trying to kill her in the weeks prior. Falling on her from the top of a ladder and hitting her on the head during a different hike. But in court Charles Blacks defense Attorney Says the story just doesnt add up because theres to physical evidence and Charles Black had no reason to kill his wife. What you have to conclude is it just didnt happen the way that lisa black says at all. Reporter now, perhaps unsurprisingly the couple has since divorced. If convicted Charles Black faces up to 30 years in prison on the attempted murder charge alone. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges. That trial is expected to take two weeks and we are expected to hear from lisa herself as she will testify. Thanks very much. Lets talk to dan abrams about this. Shes going to testify. The exwife is going to testify. Thats critical in oh, absolutely. Look, this is the ultimate he said she said, right . She is saying that she is knocked in the head with a rock in the back of her head, that shes then dragged to the edge of the cliff and he then pushes her over. He is saying that didnt happen. I didnt try and kill her. Now, he claims he doesnt remember exactly what happened because he too fell down the cliff later but this is going to be a fascinating case to hear lisa blacks testimony and it is all going to come down do the jurors believe her, thats what happened. What could tip the balance in her favor a year later theyre still together but theres some evidence that he might have tried to poison her. The question is, is the judge going to allow it. Wasnt mentioned in Opening Statements but the prosecution is trying to introduce evidence that there was a conversation overheard where he was talking about triing to kill her. If that comes in, that would be, i think, devastating testimony against him because, remember, you need whatever the prosecution can do to back up her story becomes crucial. They say theyve got Scientific Evidence and forensic evidence from the top of the cliff. For example, about where the blood was, et cetera. But anything else they can get to support that account becomes crucial because its all about her testimony. Anything that can support her testimony becomes absolutely essential. His too. Do you think he testifies . I dont think so. You know ive been thinking last night when i was asked, i wasnt sure. After reading the entirety of the logs of the Opening Statement i do not think hell testify and relien 0 the statements he told police at the time because, again, he says he doesnt remember what happened and thats not a good thing to tell a jury, right you dont want to be saying i dont remember. So i would say better to keep him off the stand and just challenge her credibility. Okay, dan abrams, thanks very much. Lets go to ginger with the weather. If i had a nickel for every tweet i got from the great lakes this morning saying where is summer, id have at least a dollar. Youre seeing the summer well, hardly pictures from chicago and right along the lake, the beach is just empty. The girl in the jacket. Oh, so cold but you are going to warm up slightly.

He plays stanley a world famous magician and she plays sofia, fortune teller on the make. When he tries toeks pose her as a fake he begins to fall under her spell. Id be happier than a fraud because your withhold world fixed view would be shaken up. Its quite the opposite. If you knew how much i dont want you to be a fake. Think how embarrassing it would be for you. Your whole life you spend publicly crusading against spiritualism and then youd have to, youd have to come out with it and say you were wrong. But im not wrong. And colin firth and emma stone join us now. I never would have guessed the first time you guys have worked together. Really . Yeah. Feels like weve been doing it for years.

He doesnt watch television. I think were pretty safe. Your first time as well. Is that dauptsdzing at all. Yeah, its extremely daunting. Hes basically been in somewhere involved in my entire life since i was 10, you know, from the early standup days, i think the first one i saw was bananas and take the money and run and i can remember where i was when i saw them, which theater. Its got to be hard to meet someone who you admired so much and then kind of have to work with him. I would think the butterflies would be especially high. Particularly when theyre clever and also he is not big on the kind of preliminaries, you know, the social graces and just to work. Yeah. You get an early you dont get phone calls and meetings. You meet him at the camera test . Or rehearsals or any conversation. No rehearsal. You just get started. It is in a beautiful place. What a place to get to do a film, the south of france. It was incredible. We stayed in provence and it takes place in the 20s so the locations are just stunning. Yeah. Your character stanley is about as unlikable a man as you could imagine. At least at first. Was that tough . Well, yeah, i want to be likable and, you know, you keep seeing these lines which are theyre so arrogant and supercilious and selfasured and i remember thinking they probably all wont make the final cut. Are we sure . Havent i just been that mean already in those exact words and, no, he was pretty sure and ultimately theres something quite liberating you just get to let it all hang out. Yes, just be as unpleasant as possible and not care. You softened him up. Now youll work with woody allen again. Yeah, right now were shooting in rhode island so we have a couple of days off to come talk about this. Well, im glad you did magic in the moonlight, opens next friday. Its a terrific film.
