Wounded. One of the assailants killed, and another wounded. And acting in the name of islam, a gunman fires 13 rounds at a philadelphia policeman. Officials say its miraculous that the officer survived. Im sarah kelly, good evening, welcome to the program. We begin with new developments in the aftermath of shocking attacks on new years eve in cologne, germany. The police chief there has been removed, following allegations of a Police Coverup that includes the omission of one very important fact, that over half of the suspects identified in connection with the crimes area,asylum seekers. A week after colognes new years eves celebrations turned into a night of mayhem and the citys police chief is out of a job, amid growing anger over police failings. His boss, westphalias interior minister, says its time for a fresh start. I have decided it is now necessary that public trust is reinstated in the Cologne Police department and that the police regains its ability to act sufficiently. Other than that, the minister gave little away, instead promising to reveal more about the investigation when he addresses the states parliament on monday. At present, few details have reached the public. The interior ministry announcing that 22 of the suspects caught by police are asylum speakers, suspects connected to thefts and bodily harm, not sexual assaults. Patience on the streets of cologne is wearing thin. Of course, the truth is what we expect from the police. There are wants that are covered up. Thats the worst part, the deception. Police on the streets of cologne in force carrying out i. D. Checks and trying to reassure the community that theyre in control of the situation. But thats unlikely to be enough. With the countrys attention focused on cologne, authorities know the investigation now has to deliver. Sarah our correspondent from germanys network joins us from cologne. The Cologne Police head is out of a job. Do you think that this will be enough to restore confidence . Well, i think its one step. I think it would be wrong to say if the people are happy in the city of cologne but you can feel actually some relief. I think its a step people were waiting for that something happens because its really an emotional debate people are doing about this issue, especially for the victims, for the women who were just in the train station on that night, they were really, really disappointed about the way the police were treating the whole issue because they were saying how can you say that Nothing Happened on that night, how could you deal with this issue in that way, so it was a step people are waiting for, its some kind of relief but i think for more confidence, the police, i think has to, well, get more success, present more results than they did in the last days. Sarah this is a very emotionally charged situation. What do you think people do want to see, then . Jens i think they want to see results, actually, they want to see that the police presents some suspects. They have arrests, they have some results where you can say, ok, theyre doing something, because the debate we had the last days was actually only about mistakes about news, we didnt know before about secrets, obviously, the police chief had in his mind so right now i think we need to change this whole thing to look more into the future and to say, ok, how can we just get this whole thing covered and how can we present results because right now the debate, the discussion was only about mistakes. Sarah thank you for that. Lets bring in our political correspondent, thomas sparrow, joining us in the studio. Thomas, chancellor Angela Merkels migration policy is very much in the hotseat at this hour. This is definitely an emotionally charged time for the country. She just spoke a short while ago. What did she have to say . Thomas she spoke a wile ago and said that germany had to talk openly about what happened in cologne a few days ago and germany has to discuss how the country will react and one aspect she specifically addressed was whether the current laws in germany are enough. She said she was open to discussing that because the political issue that has dominated berlin in the last few days is whether these laws are enough and when were talking about these laws, were talking about laws to quicker deport rejected asylum seekers, thats what theyve been discussing the last few days and what merkel addressed earlier on. Sarah migration was already a hot topic before this incident in new year. What is this doing . Thomas its putting pressure on merkel and her coalition. She spoke about the need to address cultural it means shes aware of the events in cologne and the links of those events with the general refugee debate and many germans are fearful of what it means to integrate more than a million refugees and people could use these events and those links politically to reject her opendoor policy in germany. Sarah tell us more about that. Theres been the rise of a right Wing Movement in germany, they want immigrants out of the country. This plays into their hands absolutely. Thomas absolutely and it has been used by political groups that reject Angela Merkels policy that want Angela Merkel to limit the number of refugees coming to germany. Ill give you a very quick example. A. F. D. , an antiimmigrant party in germany, they have been using the events in cologne to criticize merkel very openly to ask her to close the border to deport criminal asylum seekers, to restore order and security in germany, very strong words from the a. F. D. , something that Angela Merkel is aware of here in germany. Sarah thomas sparrow, thank you. And now news of the attacks is affecting the mood not just in cologne but across germany. Public broadcaster a. R. D. Has surveyed people nationwide asking whether they are more worried now about their safety on the streets and if they will change their behavior as a result. Many replied, yes, they will. The new years eve celebrations in cologne spiraled out of control. As a result, many germans are changing their behavior. Some are saying they will avoid public places. I wouldnt necessarily go into the middle of a crowd, which, of course, is too bad, but somehow you have a bad feeling about it. Lets say i trust the police. I think it was also a warning signal. Ill think twice about it in the future and decide against doing it. Reporter following the events in cologne, 30 of germans say they want to avoid large crowds. Not surprisingly, more women than men feel this way. On the other hand, 60 of germans say theyre not bothered, males especially do not man to plan to change their behavior. One possible solution to the problem, more Video Surveillance. Support for this has increased over the past week. 82 of germans are for an expansion of Video Surveillance but support for the idea is split about equally between men and women. Even so, 17 are against setting up more surveillance cameras. Although colognes police force was harshly criticized for their operation on new years eve, trust in the authorities overall has barely decreased. Three quarters of germans still have great faith in the police. In other news, gunmen have opened fire on a hotel in egypt, wounding tourists from germany and denmark. Officials say the attack took place in the red sea resort of hurghada and assailants arrived by sea. They say they killed or wounded a number of the gunmen. Lets bring in our correspondent standing by for us in cairo. What more can you tell us about this developing situation . Karim there was just a few minutes ago a statement by the ministry of interior about this attack. They are saying that it was two attackers, one of the attackers, 21yearold student from giza, was shot and killed, another attacker was wounded seriously. Its said they came in with knives into the hotel through the restaurant and injured two austrian tourists and one swede itch swedish tourist. Sarah this is not first time weve seen egypt as the target of an islamist attack. Is this threat increasing there, would you say . Karim we have of course already a problem, we had a problem after the Russian Airliner was brought down apparently by terrorist attack. Only yesterday we had another incident in cairo where israeli tourists were shot. So obviously tourists seem to be a target right now not only in china but now for the first time also on the red sea as well as cairo. Hurghada. It seems the issue is getting bigger now. Sarah thank you very much for the details. We turn to the United States, now, where police in philadelphia say that a man who shot an officer said he was doing it for the socalled Islamic State. The gunman fired 13 rounds from a stolen police weapon. The wounded officer hit three times, managed to fire back and wound his assailant. The suspect later told investigators he had carried out the attack in the name of islam and that he had pledged allegiance to Islamic State. The officers injuries are not lifethreatening. U. S. Correspondent Richard Walker joins us with the latest on this story. So richard, what more do we know about the circumstances of this attack . Richard sarah, it really does seem pretty astonishing that this officer is still alive, with the police saying 13 rounds fired, some of them at very close range. So i think certainly lucky to be alive simply with injuries to his arm. The police have been talking about what the assailant allegedly told them after he was apprehended, as you just mentioned, reportedly saying he was pledging allegiance to Islamic State, that he did this in the name of islam but we should also caution that his mother has also been talking to local reporters saying that her son was mentally ill, that hed recently had voices in his head. So that is certainly going to be something for the authorities to look at as they continue their investigation. So far, at least, theyre not using the word terrorism to describe this incident. Sarah what is the reaction from americans . It is hard for some to forget that there was an Islamic State attack just recently. Richard as so often in this deeply divided country, sarah, you look at the same incident, depending on your perspective, you see something very different so fox news, for instance, earlier, talking about this as evidence that the United States is in a war with militant islam, that barack obama needs to acknowledge that there is such a war going on, whereas the democrat mayor of philadelphia himself said that this was evidence that there are too many guns on the streets of america and that barack obama needs to do something about that. So the same thing could be seen very differently by different people but i think there is certainly a general sense of heightened concern since san bernardino, since paris, and the white house trying to respond to that also today with an announcement theyre setting up what theyre calling a task force on countering violent extremism to try to step up the propaganda war against terrorist ideologies. Sarah Richard Walker in washington, thank you. In other news, belgian authorities believe they have found a bomb factory used for the november terrorist attacks in paris. The find came during a series of raids in brussels last month, like the one that is seen right here. The search uncovered traces of the explosives used in the attacks as well as bomb making equipment and home made belts for transportation. Authorities also say they found a fingerprint of a key fugitive, saleh abdul salem, still at large, the brother of one of the paris attackers and they have yet to find him. German warplanes have thrown their First Missions over iraq and villaraigosa in syria in the fight against iraq militants. Two jets took off in turkey and returned to the base without incident. The aircraft are deployed in a reconnaissance role to support air strikes against i. S. We have to take a short one minute break. Back after that. Sarah welcome back. A quick reminder of our top story. Colognes police chief is stepping aside over fallout from the new years eve attacks. Wolfgan albers was suspended following allegations that police covered up facts of the investigation. Many suspects connected with the crimes are asylum seekers, something that authorities had earlier denied. Three tourists have been injured in a terrorist attack at a hotel in the egyptian red sea resort of hurghada. Witnesses say that Police Killed at least one assailant in a gun battle. Mexicos mostwanted man is in custody. The countrys president has announced the capture of the fugitive drug lord juaquim guzman better known as el chapo. Guzman heads a drug cartel. Hes been captured and escaped from high Security Prisons twice before. This is footage of him after one arrest last year. His jail breaks have added to his notoriety and made him mexicos mostwanted drug barron. Adolph hitlers mein kampfs publication has been banned in germany since the end of the Second World War until now. An annotated version of the book went on sale today across the country. Theyve arrived, 50 copies of hitlers mein kampf or my struggle ordered by munich book dealer who plans to sell this most notorious and most dangerous of all german books. Its an extremely hateful, inhuman text. It is antisemitic, racist, militarist. But i believe it is worth it to analyze the text once again. Adolph hitler wrote the book in 1924 without a ghost writer, all by himself. The essence of his thinking is all inside, hatred of jews and desire to expand germany territory eastward. Now, munichs institute of contemporary history has republished the book with commentary and thousands of footnotes. This edition exposes hitlers scattered disinformation, his outright laws and half truths purely aimed at having a propagandistic. Even so, the very idea of mein kampf being back on the bookshelves is shocking to many of the victims. Many members of the Jewish Community were against the republishing. I see in the letters i receive that theres heated discussion on this and that for many its simply inconceivable that this book is being made available again. Yet the book has indeed been available all along but only in used bookstores or outside of germany or on the internet. Thats why historians feel that selling an annotated version is justified. Censorship is in the long run nearly always if you futile in a free society and creates a negative myth. Yet the new addition never made it to the shelves of some bookstores. Interest is huge. 15,000 copies were preordered but only 4,000 printed. Most book sellers know who their customers are. Its often historians and teachers interested in the new annotated book. Sarah were going to head over to Ben Fajzullin for business news. Ben fajzullin, 2015, definitely a very tumultuous and busy year for volkswagen. Ben 2015 was not their year and it doesnt sound as if 2016 will be their year, either. The business of mopping up a corporate scandal. Its damaged the brand and hit sales. The 2015 figures out today falling by 5 . Thats the first drop in a decade. The carmaker is already facing billions of dollars worth of fines after admitting to the cheating. Its also facing a civil lawsuit in the United States with reports the company is refusing to give u. S. Authorities access to internal emails, apparently citing german law as justification. Richard walker joins us from washington. Richard, give us an idea about just how cooperative v. W. Is being right now. Richard ben, first of all, we should be clear, what were talking about here is not the lawsuit that was announced by the u. S. Department of justice earlier in the week. What were talking about here is a separate probe that is being led by most of the american states and coordinated by six of those states including the state of connecticut where the attorney general has been very outspoken in his criticism of v. W. Saying that for all of v. W. s public statements profess cooperation, as he put it, hes voicing frustration that hes not getting the cooperation that v. W. Claims, specifically whats talked about here is a set of internal emails that the investigators say they need, that v. W. , as you indicated in your introduction there, has not been passing on because while citing german privacy laws. V. W. For its part is saying that its in Constant Contact with the u. S. Authorities, that its cooperating fully but this is all just a reminder of how tight a spot v. W. Is in at the moment, that it has multiple investigations going on, the prospect of potentially further lawsuits down the road and potentially a further blow to its image if consumers get the impression that it is not cooperating as well as it claims to be. Ben briefly, multiple meetings next week between the new c. E. O. And lawmakers where you are. Richard thats right. An important set of meetings for mattias mueller, the new c. E. O. Of volkswagen, replacing Martin Winterkorn who had to quit over the scandal late last year. Hell be at the detroit auto show, an important event in the u. S. , then coming to washington to meet lawmakers and the head of the Environmental Protection agency, as well, and it will be very important for him to assure those people that v. W. Is taking this as seriously as it says it is. Ben Richard Walker covering that story for us from washington. In corporate news, Samsung Electronics says operating profits jumped by almost 15 in the last quarter of last year to 4. 6 billion euro but those gains were not up to expectations and far less than its yearonyear gains in the previous quarter. Samsung is wowing the crowds at the Consumer Electronics show in las vegas, displaying a new generation of Ultra High Definition Television sets and a smart refrigerator that helps you to go shopping and keep your kitchen stocked but analysts are less impressed and they say theres something wrong with this picture. In the Third Quarter of 2015, samsungs operating profits shot up by an impressive 80 compared to the same quarter in the Previous Year but in the Fourth Quarter profits only gained 15 yearonyear. So 2016 looks like its going to be a challenge for samsung. Its once booming cell smartphone business is suffering from competition. Ben the u. S. Logistics Company Fedex has received approval to take over its dutch rival. Fedex is planning to buy tnt for 4. 4 billion euros to achieve a Competitive Edge in europe.

More and more americans keep buying up tickets for saturdays powerball draw with the jackpot surging today to a record 800 million. With a on earth would you do with all that money .

I dont have time to think about it. You never know, youre going to hit on that. Lets see. Others know exactly what theyd do if they won. Fix up my house a little bit and retire. Retire is probably the first thing id do. Share it with my family. Give some to charity. The powerball is played in 44 states. Some believe geography plays a role in determining the winner. Its always somebody from some weird state out west somewhere, midwest, its never somebody from new york, you know, a city of working guys. Reporter the powerball isnt promising fortune for everyone. Shopkeepers say the lottery mad customers are turning regular shoppers away. Ben crazy stuff and another crazy thing. Sarah has her tickets already. Sarah i had my parents buy them for me. Mom and dad, you better have gotten them. Ben did they get one for me . Sarah well see what we can work out. We turn to sports news and at the moment in nigeria, dortmund striker pierre emrick may be doing one of his trademark flips. He has been named the 2015 african footballer of the year edging out yaya toure who won the award the previous four years running.
