Are you firemen or something . No, maam. My wife might disagree with that statement. Reporter volunteers Henri Dufresne and Jeremiah Johnson used their boat to rescue over 175 people. Whats the reaction when you pull up . Theyre just shocked. Theyre just thankful that somebody is there to help them. These people, everything they own is ruined.

Reporter 500 red cross workers are on their way here to help residents. Scott, this is the largest u. S. Disaster response since hurricane sandy. Pelley Omar Villafranca, thanks. Eric fisher is the chief meteorologist at our cbs station wbz. Eric, whats next. Reporter well, scott, we are seeing a subtle shift now. That the heaviest rainfall starting to move further off to the west. You see all that tropical moisture being drawn right up out of the gulf of mexico, so the focus for flooding rain will move a little bit. A ridge of High Pressure thats sitting off the eastern seaboard searing that tropical moisture up into central southeastern texas, also pushing it up into the midwest as we head through tonight and into the day tomorrow, so this will be our corridor for the next chance of flooding rainfall of several inches potentially. San angelo and dallas, texas, reaching up all the way to detroit. At the same time east of the rain its all about the heat. The summer swelter is still ongoing. 90s for the next couple days on the eastern seaboard. Scott, d. C. Hit 100 for the third day in a row today. Just shy tomorrow, but 97 hot enough during this brutal stretch. Pelley eric fisher, wbz, thanks very much.

Thousands have been evacuated. Mireya villareal is there. Reporter firefighters were no match for the clayton fire as it tore through the small town of lower lake in less than an hour. Sherri scarboroughs home burned to the ground. This is where we all grew up, you know. This is all weve known our whole life. And all of our neighbors, this is what they have to come home. To its cruel. Its absolutely horrible. Reporter the fire started out slow saturday afternoon, but by sunday it exploded, scorching nearly 40 of the downtown area. Over 1,500 homes still remain threatened by this blaze. Reporter cal fires daniel berlant. Well, we werent prepared is that the winds would be as strong as they were. When hundreds and hundreds of embers are raining down on home, if those homes arent built with Construction Materials that withstand them, it doesnt matter the number of fires you have, those homes will still be destroyed. Reporter nothing is left of mark gibersons warehouse. The fire took it all, including a 1923 studebaker and other prize collectibles from lower lakes history. What do you do from here . I dont know. You know, when i think about everything that was in there, its just shocking. This was a great building. And a nice and great town.

They also tell me, scott, they are continuing to look through the rubble, searching for anything that could be salvageable for these home owners who have lost everything. Pelley more on these stories tomorrow on cbs this morning. Mireya villareal, thank you. Well, today donald trump laid down the principles of his counterterrorism policy. He said that immigrants who dont believe in the u. S. Constitution should be banned. Major garrett covered the wide ranging speech in ohio. The rise of isis is the direct result of policy decisions made by president obama and secretary of state clinton. Reporter in a speech that offered no new tactical ideas to combat islamic terrorism, donald trump said the battle can not be won until the enemy that is radical islamic terrorism is named. We have a president that doesnt want to say the words. Anyone who cannot name our enemy is not fit to lead our country. Reporter trump also repeated this false claim. I was an opponent of the iraq war from the beginning, a major difference between me and my opponent. Reporter trump did not publicly express skepticism about the u. S. Led invasion until five months after it began. Trump also had tough words about u. S. Troops leaving iraq at the end of 2011. They said were moving out. Heres our time. Heres our date. Who would do this but an incompetent president . Reporter trumps criticism left out the fact that president george w. Bush negotiated and approved the time line. On immigration, trump said regions with terrorism would lose privileges and the u. S. Would apply ideological tests for admission. The time is overdue to develop a new Screening Test for the threats we face today. I call it extreme vetting. Reporter that includes tests of applicants for hostile attitude. Those who do not believe in our constitution, who support bigotry and hatred, will not be admitted for immigration into our country. Reporter trump also called for a Strategic Alliance with russia to do battle against isis. Scott, this overlooks moscows support for the assad dictatorship in syria and the islamic regime in iran. Pelley Major Garrett with the Trump Campaign this evening. Major, thank you. Trump stuck to his text and avoided the gaffes that have sent his poll numbers plummeting since last months convention. Hillary clinton, whose lead is formidable, had a different view of counterterrorism today. Heres nancy cordes. The secret is he has no plan. Reporter in scranton, pennsylvania, today, clinton argued trumps terror proposals vary by the day. He talked about letting syria become a free zone for isis, a major country in the middle east that could launch attacks against us and others. He talked about sending ground troops, american ground troops. Well, that is off the table as far as i am concerned. Reporter unlike trump, clinton wants to increase the number of Syrian Refugees the u. S. Lets in from 10,000 to 65,000. She says the vetting process is already extensive. And she argues, shell work better with moderate muslims who are the key to defeating isis. He cant be trusted. Reporter Vice President biden, campaigning with clinton, had a score to settle after trump called president obama the founder of isis. Let me tell you why its a dangerous statement, why as he might say the bad guys are listening. Reporter biden pointed out that the leader of the Terror Group Hezbollah had seized on trumps accusation over the weekend. If my son were still in iraq and i said all those who are there, the threat to their life has gone up a couple clicks, gone up a couple clicks. Reporter biden went so far as to say that if his son had been deployed by a president trump, he would have thrown himself at his sons feet to prevent him from going. Hes hoping that statements like that get some attention here in workingclass scranton, scott, which is the town where he grew up. Pelley nancy cordes, thanks. Tonight a curfew goes into effect in milwaukee at 10 00 in the hope of heading off a third night of violence. Riots erupted saturday after a black suspect was fatally shot by a black Police Officer.

Do not do further damage to this great neighborhood. Reporter the shooting death on saturday of 23yearold Sylville Smith by a Police Officer triggered protests that ended with torched out businesses, including this b. P. Gas station. It does appear that things are starting to get a little bit out of control. Reporter there were more than a dozen arrests, and police, some in riot gear, quickly found themselves in the paths of rocks, broken glass, even bullets. [gunfire]. Investigators told cbs news the suspect had a handgun with 23 rounds when he ran off after being pulled over in a traffic stop for having a suspicious vehicle. When asked to drop his weapon, police say he refused. He was shot twice, once in the chest and arm. Milwaukee police chief ed flynn. Whether the shooting turned out to be completely justified or whether it wasnt, that wasnt the issue. The issue was this is a flash point. Reporter a recent study that found that the fuel that may have fed it was years of racial disparity. 49 of black children in wisconsin are living in poverty. Wisconsin also incarcerates the most black men in the country. And in milwaukee county, more than half of all black men in their 30s and 40s have served time. City Alderman Russell sandford says Better Community policing could help ease tensions. Were going up there and passing out baseball cards. And you got to talk to them and know who they were. And you need to bring that effort back. Reporter scott, the officer involved in the shooting was wearing a body camera. We tried reaching out to him for comment, but did not get a response. He has been placed on administrative duty. Pelley demarco morgan, thanks very much. In chicago the epidemic of gun violence is only getting worse. There have been 2,136 shootings so far this year, a 48 increase over the same period last year. Dean reynolds tells us that among the latest victims is the son of a Police Officer. Its a pretty nice place. I like it. Reporter last year Arshell Dennis spoke about growing up in chicago. Its kind of bad being a youth there, but, you know, they teach you a lot of stuff. Reporter but in his case, the lesson came at a terrible price. The 19yearold son of a chicago policeman was shot to death as he and a friend sat on the front steps of his mothers home. He was hours away from returning to st. Johns university in new york, where he was studying to be a journalist. I think it will take two lifetimes to change the world. Reporter instead he became one of the more than 430 people slain in the city this year. I do appreciate the fact that i am where i am. A lot of people where im from dont make it out. Reporter police dont know the motive yet, but sources say gang initiations were happening in his neighborhood over the weekend. Aspiring members were told to go kill whoever you find. Thats a rite of passage for them. How bizarre is that . Reporter Police SuperintendentEddie Johnson was once a patrolman with the young mans father, officer chico dennis, who johnson says is now inconsolable. It just goes to show you how Violent Crime can reach out and touch you when you least expect it. Its just sad because you have a man that was raising a son to be a man, doing what he was supposed to be doing, and he simply came home to visit his mother and this happens to him. Reporter scott, the superintendent told us he is confident there will be arrests in this case. We are going to catch them, he said. This is personal. Pelley Dean Reynolds reporting for us tonight. Dean, thank you. Coming up next on the cbs evening news, how to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome. And later, the man who mines gold at lightning speed.

Most often the cause is sids sudden infant death syndrome. And a new study out today finds that many parents are not doing all they can to reduce the risk. Heres dr. Jon lapook. Reporter like so many new parents, Jenelle Hanley is focused on the best and safest way to get her oneyearold daughter cameron to sleep. No loose blankets, no loose toys in the crib whatsoever. Reporter and hanley puts cameron to sleep on her back, which is also the current recommendation by pediatricians, but according to todays new study in pediatrics, hanley is among the very few doing it right. Researchers videotaped 160 babies sleeping at 1, 3 and 6 months. At one month, 91 slept with loose items, like bedding, bumper pads, pillows or stuffed animals. By six months that number was still over 90 . At one month 14 were not placed to sleep on their back. By six months it had more than doubled to 33 . I dont worry about the babies when colic is part of the picture. Reporter dr. Hai cao is a pediatrician in brooklyn. Babies should have their own sleeping environment. Babies should also not have any stuffed animals in their sleeping environment. And they should be placed on their backs. Reporter researchers attribute some of these unsafe behaviors to mixed messages such as the availability of crib bedding, but also to tired parents. Its probably on the part of pediatricians to get the word out a little bit more about sids dangers. We have a lot of generational things that have been passed down over and over and over that weve gotten comfortable with doing that maybe we shouldnt be doing. Reporter the study also found when infants were moved overnight, most often to a parents room, the new sleeping site was generally more dangerous. Bedsharing is a risk factor for sids, and soft bedding and loose objects may cause suffocation by covering an infants nose and mouth. Pelley dr. Jon lapook, thanks, doc.
