Pelley as the bombing suspects attempted to get out of town that week, they hijacked a driver. At his request, we will refer to im only as danny. He told his story to chip reid. Reid. Reporter three days after the bombs, danny, a 26yearold chinese entrepreneur, pulled over in his new mercedes to text a friend when a man forced his way into his car at gunpoint. He asked me, do you know the Boston Marathon bombings . I said, yes, i know. He asked then, cow know do you know who did this . No. He said, i did that. Reporter what was your reaction then . I couldnt believe it. Reporter the man was tamarlan tsarnaev. He and his brother, dzhokar, took danny on a terrifying 90minute ride. I think about family friends, dreams. I thought i cannot, i cannot die tonight. Reporter so this is the intersection right up here. Yup. Reporter they stopped at this shell station to fill up for what was going to be a long drive to new york to set off more bombs. Danny believed the brothers were going to kill him somewhere along the way. I was asking myself should i put my life in the hands of the terrorists or should i put my life in the hands of my own self . Reporter and you decided to put your life in the hands of yourself. Yeah. Reporter tamerlan briefly tucked his gun in the pocket of his door while dzhokar was paying for gas. Danny silently counted to four, then made his move. He quickly unbuckled his seat belt and was gone in a flash. That quick. Yeah. The cashier for h reporter he ran to this Convenience Store across the street and asked the cashier for help. I begged him to call 911, please. Reporter you begged the man in there to call 911. I think he thought i was crazy. Reporter still, the attendant did call the police. A carjacking at the shell, 1001 cambridge street. The victim fled the car. Reporter when the police arrived, danny said they could track the tsarnaevs with the cars technology. It was a turning point in a threeday manhunt leading to a shootout with police that led tamerlan dead and dzhokar wounded and soon captured. Dont feel like a hero because, from my opinion, i was trying to save myself. Reporter but whatever motivates him, dannys quick thinking almost surely prevented more bloodshed and terror. Chip reid, cbs news, cambridge, massachusetts. Pelley more on the bombing a little bit later.

The shootings occurred outside a Jewish Community center and a jewish retirement home. 73yearold Frazier Glenn miller made a video Court Appearance from jail.

Reporter the police say that miller, a former ku klux klan leader, was targeting jews, but the victims, it turned out, were not jewish. Today, ukraines military made a move to dislodge militants who had taken over government buildings in ten eastern cities. Ukraine and the u. S. Both blame russia, perhaps setting the stage for an invasion as it did in crimea. Holly williams is in Eastern Ukraine. Reporter ukrainian troops were helicoptered in and then tried to force out prorussian separatists who had taken over an airfield and other government buildings. But as they forced to remove militants at that points in one city, 80 miles away, another group took over peacefully. The men now in charge told us no shots were fired. They simply walked into the Mayors Office and took control. Ukraines government claims the insurgency has been instigated by russia, but it also has Popular Support here in the east of the country. Many of the protesters are Blue Collar Workers who accuse the Central Government in kiev of discriminating against russian speaking ukrainians. Shakhtersk is a coal mining town that has fallen on hard times. Andre told us they had a better life when ukraine was part of the soviet union and they want more independence from the Central Government. Nikolai took us up to the roof to show us the flag they raised, the flag of the autonomous Eastern Ukraine they hoped for. He said he prays russia will help them if things turn violent here, too. The Regional Governor here in donetsk told us today he fears the use of force could provoke a military intervention from russia, just like we saw in crimea last month. And, scott, he believes the only solution is to negotiate with the separatists. Pelley Holly Williams covering for us in Eastern Ukraine. Thank you, holly. Turning to syrias civil war, which is now in its fourth year, tomorrow, a British University will put out the first report detailing a remarkable number of westerners who have joined the fight there, including americans. Many of them are inspired by fiery speeches on the internet, and Clarissa Ward got a preview. We can kill anyone who comes we can kill anyone who comes our way. Reporter he is known as Abu Dujana Al amriki, the american, and hes one of an estimated 100 u. S. Citizens who have gone to fight in syrias civil war. On twitter and facebook, westerners now brag openly about their exploits on the battle field and try to recruit their friends to join them. Get your priorities straight and your intentions straight. Reporter shiraz maher is coauthor of the groundbreaking report that looked at the fighters messages on social media. I think what surprised us is the level of openness from these guys. We see a lot of pictures, a lot of video, people fooling around, relaxing. Its like a summer camp for jihadists. I was born and raised in this country. Reporter but the biggest strietz for maher and his team were the role played by this man ahmad musa jibril, an online cleric from dearborn, michigan, who emerged as a leading source of inspiration. Joseph carter showed us the connections he found. This large circle that you see here is jabril, and all of the lines you see going in, those are follows from foreign fighters. Reporter so whats his appeal . He is cariz mat ping he is knowledgeable, and so all these things put together make him accessible to foreigners who live in the west who dont necessarily speak arabic. He bridges the gap for them. Reporter in his sermons, jab ril, who has been jailed in the u. S. On fraud fraud and weapons charges, never explicitly calls for jihad in syria, but he doesnt have to. If their women, our women, are being raped and you dont get mad, then your faith is at stake. Reporter his polarity is reminiscent of another american extremist clerk, alalakey. Who inspired the Boston Marathon bombers. He was killed by a u. S. Drone strike in yemen. Now many fear these westerners fighting in syria will return home with deadly new skills. We reached out repeat told jibril, and even sent a member of our team to knock on his door in michigan but received no response. And interestingly, scott, you saw on our report, that twitter account has been taken down and a new one open with no content in his name. Pelley Clarissa Ward in our london news room, thank you. The white house announced today that a former Army Sergeant will receive the nations highest military award, the medal of honor. Kyle white, now 27, risked his life to rescue fellow soldiers while dodging taliban bullets during a battle in northeast afghanistan in 2007. White called in air support and helped treat the wounded. Hell receive his medal at the white house next month. Still ahead, how the f. B. I. Cracked the boston bombing case. Was there a eureka moment in terms of the video . Powerful storms head east after tearing through the deep south. And it was a onceinaredmoon event when the cbs evening new continues. nn [ doctor ] and in a Clinical Trial versus lipitor, crestor got more highrisk patients bad cholesterol to a goal of under 100.

Pelley it took about 100 hours for the boston Terrorism Task force to crack the bombing case. It turned out that the Critical Evidence had been collected before the first bomb went off. In an interview for 60 minutes, we talked about that with former f. B. I. Executive assistant director stephanie douglas, and rich delauriers, who was special agent in charge of boston. They told us about the wealth of Surveillance Video that painted a picture of the crime. Was there a eureka moment in terms of the video, where at some point somebody said, hey, boss, have a look at this . Yes, there was. I believe it was wednesday morning, and we watched that video hundreds and hundreds of times. You can see an individual, a tall man wearing a white ball cap, walk into the frame. He has a backpack slung over one of his shoulders. He puts the backpack down very nonchalantly. He joins the crowd. You clearly see everybody look very, very definitely to the left, like theyve heard something, theyve seen something. So you know that first blast has gone off. He does not do that. He does not do what everybody else in that video does. He does not turn to his left. He instead stands there for a second or two, and walks very deliberately back the same direction that he came in. Pelley the eureka video hasnt been seen by the public it is being kept for the trial but this still photo shows much the same view of the suspect and the people who would be torn apart by the blast. Let me ask you to describe what you see in that picture. I see the subject, the individual who has been charged in the investigation, and i see people who were grievously injured in that blast, and i see people who died in that blast. Pelley the people along the fence line there . Several of them, yes. I believe i see his backpack on the ground, and then i see one of the people that was killed as a result of that bomb. Pelley do you know the name . This is Martin Richard. Pelley Martin Richard was eight years old. His sevenyearold sister, jane, lost a leg. Their father, bill, suffered hearing damage from the bomb in the backpack laid at their feet. Only two days had passed. Now, they were looking for every image of the suspect they called white hat. Massachusetts state police analysts found him with a man in a black hat, which turned out to be his older brother. Yes. Pelley now you have the tsarnaev brothers. Yes. Pelley but they didnt yet know their identity. Once the suspects pictures were released to the public, they fled. Now, the surviving suspect, dzhokar tsarnaev, faces a federal trial and possible death penalty. Today, a South African prosecutor wrapped up his cross examination of Oscar Pistorius after five days. Pistorius, a double amputee who ran in the olympics on carbon blades, is charged with murdering his girlfriend, reeva steenkamp. The prosecution says pistorius shot her on purpose after an argument.

Next weather talent appears at wx center with generic pinpoint filling monitor then we take special sponsored 7day gra pelley we thought youd like to see some of the images of this day of remembrance here in boston. They were taken by a boston globe photographer who also recorded the tragic scene here one year ago. And therein lies a tale told tonight by elaine quijano. Reporter the day the bombs went off at the Boston Marathon, veteran boston globe photographer John Tlumacki took more than 200 photos. I have trouble going back to the finish line of the marathon because i can visualize where everybody was when i photographed them. Reporter he was especially haunted by the images he took of 17yearold sydney corcoran and and her 48yearold mother, celeste. Sharp nel severed sydneys femoral artery. By photographing people the way i did, by photographing sydney on the ground helpless, and celeste, i felt like i took advantage of them, even though i was doing my job, that i was guilty of maybe depriving them of their dignity. Tlumacki felt compelled to meet them. Two weeks later, when he finally did, he apologized. I didnt want to have that image in my head of them laying on the ground. I needed a new picture of them and i asked them if i could take a picture of them, and they just kind of looked at each other and smiled. Reporter they grew closer as he documented their recovery. What are some of the moments that stand out for you . One of the first times that celeste stood up by herself without holding on to anything. That was for me day one of celeste being energized, being courageous, being boston strong. Reporter tlumacki witnessed milestones, such as the day sydney left the hospital. To just be in my brothers car and be out of the hospital and to just know that i was going home and i was just so ecstatic, i just threw my arms up and i was like, all right, take me home. Reporter five days later, celeste came home. They wheeled me up and i just threw my arms up in the air just like she did, and i was like, yes, im home. Reporter another favorite was the night of sydneys senior prom. There were times when we didnt think wed ever be that happy again or even just be here physically, to be able to look back and see that, theres a certain triumph in it because you feel like youve overcome this great obstacle. Reporter do you feel absolved of your guilt now . I do. I remember celeste saying to me, john, i dont want you to ever, ever to feel that guilt ever again. Whatever you did, people wouldnt have known the horror that we went through, what terrorism does, and you captured that for the world to see. Thats all i needed to hear. That was closure for me. Ready when you are. All right. Reporter after experiencing the bombing as strangers, they are healing together as friends. Elaine quijano, cbs news, boston.

That is the situation in that building right now in. Reporter no word how it started, but firefighters put it out in a big hurry.

Large flames, heavy smoke from the top of this sixstory 30 unit building. Were told everybody made it out okay. That is according to the fire chief, including a 90yearold woman and a lot of people and pets. Again, no word how the fire started. Best guess, it was up at the roof or the top floor.
