Captioning sponsored by cbs this is the cbs evening news with scott pelley reporting from los angeles. Pelley good evening. This is our western edition. At this hour is appears russian militaries forces are crossing the border into ukraine. In a region of ukraine known as crimea. Late today, president obama went on National Television to warn russia against a military intervention. Ukraine has been reeling since last week when a popular revolt led the president of ukraine to flee to russia. Crimea used to be part of russia and has long wanted to return. Ukraine says russian attack helicopters and military transports have taken two key airports in crimea. That is what brought the president into the briefing room. It would be a clear violation of russias commitment to respect the independence and sovereignty and borders of ukraine and of international laws. And just days after the world came to russia for the olympic games, it would invite the condemnation of nations around the world and, indeed, the United States will stand with the International Community in affirming that there will be costs for any military intervention in ukraine. Pelley now, russia says the troop movements are normal by treaty with ukraine, russia does have a major navy base on the crimean coast. We have a team of correspondents covering this rapidly developing story in ukraine and washington. First, david martin at the pentagon on what the russians are up to. David. Reporter scott, u. S. Officials say the russians are flying hundreds of troops, maybe more into crimea. These officials are not yet calling this an outright invasion but one said this is history being made. They are landing at an airfield near the capital of crimea in what appears to be a classic operation for inserting troops into a foreign country. First seized the airfield, which then serves as at bridged head to bring in more troops and more equipment. These movements are unrelated to the largescale military exercise going on inside russia which u. S. Officials say is serving as a screening operation to make the airlift of troops into crimea harder to detect. It is not yet clear what these Russian Troops intend to do once they consolidate their position at the airfield, but so far, u. S. Officials say there is no evidence of gunfire. Pelley david martin at the pentagon. David, thank you. Ukraine is divided nearly down the middle with strong russian sympathies in the east and in the west people who identify with western europe. Those people in the west overthrew the corrupt ukrainian president last week. Clarissa ward is in ukraines capital kiev. Clarissa whats going on in crimea . Reporter well, scott, the situation on the ground in crimea is very tense and very fluid. Those masked gunmen have taken over the two main airports and the parliament and whats particularly unnerving to the people on the ground is these men will not identify themselves. They are wearing uniforms and the uniforms do not have insignias on them. All we know is they appear to be a prorussian paramilitary force. The russians have been completely silent on the events going on in the ground in crimea and on what role they may have in those events. But the ukrainian leadership here in kiev has not minced any words. The interior minister has said this is essentially a military invasion and the defense minister has warned if any military installations come under attack in crimea, the Ukrainian Army is ready to respond. Pelley Clarissa Ward reporting from kiev tonight. It is worth remembering that russia invaded neighboring georgia back in 2008, and that resulted in a shooting war. Major garrett is at the white house for us tonight. Major. Reporter scott, the white house knows its options are limited, and president obamas warnings to russia about costs to be paid if it intervenes or ipvades ukraine remain vague. Top officials here tell us theres no sciewrs discussion about u. S. Military action although the United States my boycott the upcoming gitsummit in socha roorn. The trade talks also might be cancel pd at the United States the russian oomed said russian troop movements are not menacing and not meant to intimidate the tranquil Transitional Government take hold of power in ukraine. He said russia has treaty right in crimea and is merely exercising them. Scott, i must tell you, the white house is far from convinced. Pelley major, thanks very much. Bob schieffer today spoke with defense secretary chuck hagel about u. S. Military options. Bob, what did he have to say . Reporter ill tell you, bob, it was just before the president spoke and he pointedly told me it would be a mistake if the russians moved forces into other parts of ukraine. What would we do if the Russian Forces started rolling into other parts of ukraine . Well, i wont get into the different specific options, but this could be a very dangerous situation if this continues in a very provocative way. We have many options, like any nations do. Were trying to deal with the diplomatic focus. Thats the appropriate, responsible approach. Reporter hagel was circumspect, for obvious reasons, but it was clear that what he and other western officials are telling their russian counterparts is, look, it is in no ones interest to let this get beyond where it is now. Weve got to Work Together to try to calm this down. Now, whether that message is being heard is the part thats not clear. Pelley bob, thanks very much. Bob will have much more with secretary hagel this sunday on face the nation. Now, to the other big developing story tonight, the extreme weather. Have a look at this. This is the Los Angeles River outside our l. A. Bureau. On wednesday, it was bone dry. Tonight, the waters are raging as a winter storm batters the droughtstricken west coast with more water than some places can handle. This is the view from space. You can see just how big the storm system is. The rain is coming ashore in wave after wave touching off mudslides in some places. Ben tracy is in glendora, california. Ben. Reporter scott, we have our own version of a river here in glendora, california. The only problem this is a street. This is one of the heaviest rainstorms to hit this area in the past three years, and its already proved deadly. The water continues to rise. Reporter two men and their dogs had to be rescued from the raging l. A. River as the water was rapidly rising. On a rainsoaked freeway, the driver of this truck was killed when he crashed on an overpass. Rain is falling at up to an inch an hour, turning streets into muddy streams. City crews are trying to quickly clear them to prevent storm drains from clogging. After 8 00 p. M. , you cant come back up. Reporter more than 1,000 homes are under mandatory evacuations in hillside towns threatened by mudslides. Those who chose to stay are told they are now on their own. L. A. County assistant fire chief steve martin. We cannot go into moving mud and debris and risk our personnel to get to you and your homes. We will have to wait until it stops. Reporter some of the debris coming down the hills is still smoking from a wildfire here last month. This is not really mud. This is the sludge from the fire. Reporter ed heinliens Basketball Court was full of it and it was creeping closer to his house. He fears the hillside may not hold. It looks small. It is huge. And all is going to come down in these 10 homes here and wipe out rancho vasquez. Thats the worstcase scenario. Reporter Downtown Los Angeles is expected to get almost as much rain from these storms as it did all of last year. The problem is that when the rain comes this hard, this fast, the l. A. Drainage system washes nearly 90 of it out into the pacific ocean, and it creates a mess. Who are those guys . I dont know, but thats not a good idea. Reporter a Weather Channel reporter found out he was no match for the mud in ed heinliens backyard, and neither was his boot. Now, these foothill areas could see up to six inches of rain before these storms move out on saturday, but california desperately needs this rain because of the drought. Scott, i talked to one homeowner today. Hes likely going to have some mud up against his house but he said hes willing to take one for the team. Pelley thanks very much pain little bit later in the broadcast, were going to talk to california governor jerry brown about the drought and whether he might have another run for president in him.

Some places could get a foot of snow. Right now, the weather problem for much of the midwest and east is bitter cold.

Reporter Lieutenant Commander molly waters said calls for help from boats surrounded by ice has tripled this winter. Colder temperatures started forming ice a lot early are than previous years and the ice has had more time to grow thicker so its been a lot more challenging for the shipping this particular year. Reporter driving around the detroit area has been a challenge, too. Some roads in redford township have not anyone be clear for weeks. Judith williams lives here. This is by far the worst winter i ever remember here and the roads are really bad. Reporter march will come in like a lion.

Were going to have to adapt and each year well take a look at it and act prudently. Well invest in new technology.

Why do you want another four years . What do you want to accomplish . Well, i like this kind of work. Ive been doing it now for quite a bit of time.

What is the difference between Governor Brown 75 and Governor Brown 2014 . Lot of years. Lots of decades. Lots of experiences. I know better what works. I have a sense that things take a longer time. Now, i can look back to 1974 that was 40 years ago and can see how long it takes to actually get things done. Im working on projects that i started when i was governor the first time. So id say the difference is i have more patience. I was in a big hurry. In fact i ran for president in less than two years. Pelley youve run for the democratic nomination three times.
