both very strong groups, both very much allied with the afghan taliban, the haqqani networks, the networks that s been responsible for some of the biggest attacks in kabul over the last ten years, they re encroaching into territory around kabul. and all these taliban, haqqani, al qaeda groups, show isis who is the big beast in afghanistan. there s a rivalry going on right now. they want to prove they re the toughest guy whether it s isis or al qaeda or the taliban for that matter, right? exactly. and by launching a huge attack in kabul you will be sending a very loud message we own this territory. the other thing that s very worrisome right now and you ve been studying this is the notion this eighth terrorist in the paris attacks, salah abdelsalam, he may have escaped not only france, not only belgium, not only the rest of europe, he may be in an isis safe building in syria right now. what are you hearing about that? that s the working theory of
several of those attackers back and forth between paris and belgium, brussels and syria before those attacks. but belgium officials saying right now they have no indications that salah abdelsalam has done so successfully following those attacks. and, wolf, u.s. officials i ve spoken to they say that investigators may in fact be getting closer to locating him in europe. and you re also learning that these terrorists in the paris attacks they had maybe other plans in the works as well. that s right. it seems more than one group had more than one group of targets underway. we know that the mastermind, abdelhamid abaaoud, and second man that were killed in that assault in the apartment in saint-denis following the paris attacks that they planned a major attack on a major shopping center and that they d made preparations for that attack. sources tell cnn the source also had other targets, quote, ready to go, including transportation networks, schools and jewish targets. that being an ec
ser that although he was on notice by freddie gray himself, that he did need medical attention, he thought he was faking it and as a result didn t provide it. as we know he subsequently a week later died. they ll be looking at that. and it goes along the line of the other charges in terms of misconduct in office, recklessly endangering him. all of that will be the argument that the prosecutor will be making will be as a result of their failure to act when you have a legal duty as a police officer to act, this is what occurred. that s what the prosecution s theory will be moving forward. obviously the defense will have much to say about that. absolutely. and this is the first of what will be six separate trials for these officers in baltimore. thank you very much, joey jackson. still to come here tonight, we have new information just breaking about the paris terror suspect on the run. you see him there. salah abdelsalam. what sources are telling us he purchased. what did he buy in par
from syria. look at what we ve seen. you mentioned purchases of detonators from a fireworks store. it doesn t look like abdeslam had an exit plan. they chose targets you would not recognize as iconic. isis is stepping up its game saying we want to stage attacks in europe but not getting to the level of that kind of preparation we saw from its predecessor al qaeda 10 or 15 years ago. you do see the coordination, six coordinated attacks flying under the radar of intelligence. philu take a listen to what representative mike mccall said earlier today. mr. chairman, do you know whether investigators may be closer to finding abdeslam? do they have a sense whether he s still in europe or made his way to syria? i can t get into that level of specificity. i don t want to compromise our investigation. i do think they re closing in on him.
part of the terror cell that carried out the attacks in paris bought detonators in france before the attacks. we re talking about salah abdeslam. the attacker on the run. the french newspaper reporting that he made the purchase in a fireworks store in a town just north of paris. the paper adds the manager of the store alerted security services approximate that purchase after abdeslam s name and photograph were released to the public in this wanted poster. cnn counterterrorism analyst and official philip mudd. when you talk about buying these at a fireworks store, who can buy these things? any tracking done when you re buying them? i think this would be difficult to track. what we re learning is how informal the orchestration of this attack was. yeah. it looks like isis is taking a step towards the sophistication of isis a decade ago. but not controlled and directed
