so he couldn t specifically pin point an out-and-out lie, but taking an omission as not going far enough when he s under oath. wolf. quickly, i see he s still speaking. i don t know if he s speaking to a reporter back there. he said he s only going the make one statement, but be precise. i know he has contacted the fbi, he wants to give them some sort of statement. has he been formally questioned by fbi agents as part of this new background check? reporter: it doesn t look like it. he just read his statement that he had issued yesterday. he ended it with saying, this is what i would like to tell the fbi, and then it was asked, have you given a statement to the fbi and he just turned around and kept walking. so it doesn t appear as though he did. yeah. all right. well, if you get some more information, we will come back to you, jean cazares, reporting from north carolina. evan, you have covered the fbi for us. are they going to be able to
canada? no no certainly they work in canada. it s simply a matter of asking can we send more? and they say yes. we can send all the the canadians don t want wanted killers in their country any more than we do. no, they done. jean casarez, what can you tell us? reporter: we re hearing more helicopters. more have taken off, which is the command post for the new york state police and other agencies. what we are learning also is the evidence they were processing this afternoon i mean it may still by processed right now in the new york state crime lab for dna evidence but that they believed was extremely significant. they wouldn t say what they found, but they said they believed the pair dropped it dropped it intentionally, dropped it not intentionally, but that s what they found that led them to believes that they
that they are armed and dangerous. alternates earlier today, i spode with a neighbor of one of the defendants that talked to me about the gun they believed was taken from the cabin last saturday. she knows the owner of the gun. she said to me it was a shotgun, that it was a shotgun that was a relic, an antique, but the owner realized it was gone because it was such a special gun that he kept in that particular cabin right there. we don t know in ammunition was taken with that gun. or if that s the only one they had, but he can dmpl that his relic shotgun was missing out of the cabin that was burglarized last saturday morning. so that would make law enforcement even more on edge even more inclined to consider these individuals armed and presumed dangerous, as if they needed to be concerned about that even more so than they already were, jean casarez?
pursuit of david sweat. jake? that s a good point, a fine point, that he has not been taken into custody. jean cazares. if you re just turning on it s thought to be three weeks ago, 21 days ago, one of those fugitives who was in prison for homicide richard matt has been shot by police a source tells cnn s deb feyerick, also pursuing david sweat. deb, what more can you tell us? all of this unfolding very rapidly, very quickly, as word of this chase and the shooting of richard matt is unfolding. we re waiting to hear from our sources. a number of people are communicating with people on the ground and in that vicinity.
problems in a situation like this so now, though the fact that they re so closed to sweat, i think it would be much easier and quicker we re having an easier time getting to jean casarez. jean what are your sources telling you? what are your law enforcement sources telling you? again, a very fluid situation. what we are learned is that richard matt was shot and killed in a shootout with law enforcement. it appears he had gotten ahold of a gun. but i m being told there was a shootout after the driver of a camper called 911 near malone new york. that s where it happened. apparently that driver was shot at called 911.
