different days. the reason why scud missiles are important and certainly a powerful reason, because scud missiles can carry chemical weapons. as we reported to you this week the president has been very clear, president obama, that if syria uses chemical weapons, that is a game-changer for the united states. what that means for us we won t know. we don t have specifics on but that is just the report now coming into our newsroom. the assad regime using scud missiles at rebel fighters. no word on casualties by the way and no evidence of chemical weapons being used as well but an important, perhaps switch to this conflict that s now been ongoing for 21 months. we ll keep you updated as we hear more. jon: the kidnapping of 6-year-old eat town patz stunned the nation and now the man who confessed to the murder is live in court. reporter: we re tracking this down in the newsroom because it is expected to happen to.
