zoo says no animals are missing. calling out nicki minaj over her tweets. are there artists tweeting into the fray? today, wednesday, july 22nd, 2015. >> live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> good morning, everyone, welcome on a wednesday morning. >> let's ask the guys in the control room to put the images up of a massive warehouse complex fire in north brunswick, 40 miles from manhattan. it has grown to five alarms. we'll have much more on that story coming up. but on this wednesday morning, let's start with another breaking story overnight. a united airlines crew reported being the target of lasers at a new york area airport. this after a dozen similar incidents there last week. nbc's tom costello covers aviation. what can you tell us? >> this problem has been growing worse over the past few years. laser pointers start out with a small light but as the distance grows, that beam of light grows bigger and bigger. so big it can light up a cockpit and blind the pilots. >> this morning, the police and faa once again investigating an incident at newark liberty airport after a green laser was pointed in the cockpit of united airlines flight as it was landing last night. >> we just got lasered from our 10 clock position. >> no injuries reported on the flight that took off from houston landing at newark just before midnight. it comes after a string of similar incidents one night last week when 12 different planes were lit up, delta, american, jetblue and united and porter airlines. >> american 1472, we have a green laser shooting at us right off the wing. >> the problem is growing. in 2010 more 2800 reports. last year nearly 3900. a high priority for the faa and the fbi. >> it's got hundreds of people on board and instead of focusing on the landing of the plane, that pilot is instead focusing on getting hit by a laser. >> while police often try to follow the people behind the laser, catching them can be a challenge. the penalty for targeting an aircraft, up to a quarter million dollar fine and 20 years in prison. >> the fbi says it's hard to profile who targets an aircraft but it's very often a young man who is bored or simply fooling around with a new laser. while 3900 laser attacks is a lot, the nation's airlines point out it's a fraction of the 27,000 flights they have every single day across the country. back to you. >> tom, it's a very reckless act. thanks for your report. we're getting our first look at dash cam video from the arrest of a woman in texas days later found dead in her jail cell. authorities say she took her own life but her family disputes that. john yang has the latest on this story. >> reporter: good morning, savannah, the department of public safety is denying social media claims that that 52 minute dash cam video was edited before they released it. they say it was a technical problem when they posted it and they are now working on reposting it. i should point out those glitches do not appear in the 14 minute section that shows sandra bland's arrest or in the sections that we're about to show you now. >> i'm in my car, why do i have to put out my cigarette? >> you can step on out. >> i don't have to -- >> step out of the car. >> reporter: a traffic stop turns into a shouting match between a texas state trooper and sandra bland. >> i'm going to yank you out of here. >> you're going to yank me out of my car? all right. >> the confrontation lasted 15 minutes and captured on state police dash cam he hadedited in part. >> i will light you up! get out of the car! >> the officer's arrest report says a handcuffed bland kicked my right leg. authorities are investigating the trooper's behavior and placed him on desk duty. bland was charged with assaulting a police officer three days later she was found dead in jail. this is cell 95, where officials say sandra bland's body was found. it's been virtually untouched since that morning. including her unopened meal from the night before. on a bunk a bible ininspirational booklet. the sheriff says it's suicide. the family isn't buying it. sandra bland's family has returned to chicago with sandra's remains. they say they are preparing to fwur bury her at a funeral on saturday in chicago. matt and savannah? >> thank you. let's turn to politics. donald trump remains the talk of the presidential race with new antics on the campaign trail. it's making it hard for any of the 15 other republicans to get any attention unless of course they are the target of a trump rant. nbc national correspondent peter alexander is at the white house with more on that. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, lindsey graham proudly joking he's in the market for a new cell phone after donald trump's latest move that almost felt like a scene out of aplayground prank giving his private number to a national tv audience. with trump stealing all of the oxygen here it's become impossible for any of the opponents to spark momentum of their own. >> after seven years, is that the advice that you then be queej to future president trump? >> president obama joking on tuesday night. >> well, i'm sure the republicans are enjoying mr. trump's current dominance -- >> anything that makes them look less crazy. >> reporter: the republican front-runner released an unrepented. >> i'm a little too strong. they don't like it. >> reporter: donald trump's unorthodox campaign shaking up an already unpredictable race. >> we're going to turn it around. >> reporter: it sounded like a roast of his republican rivals mocking rick perry's glasses. >> he put glasses on so people would think he's smart. it just doesn't work. >> reporter: and calling out south carolina's senior senator lindsey graham in his own state. >> what a stiff. >> reporter: the latest in a round of name calling. >> you don't have to run for president and be the world's biggest jackass. >> i watch lindsey graham calling me a jackass -- >> reporter: even reading off graham cell phone number on live tv. [ bleep ] so i don't know, give it a shot. >> reporter: while graham tweeted probably getting a new phone. the aides hit back, saying his ridiculous campaign is taking focus off real issues like iran and national security. >> he is someone not bound by same rules that other candidates abide by and that's why he's so dangerous. >> reporter: tuesday's sparring overshadowed the latest to announce, john kasich, the 16th republican in the race. >> we're going to take the lessons of the heartland and straighten out washington, d.c. and fix our country. >> reporter: the break through had to force candidates to get creative, like rand paul torching the tax code as the republican race heats up. here's why all this matters. there's an added urgency for republicans this time around because only the top ten of them are going to earn a spot in the first prime time republican debate that's now barely two weeks away. matt and savannah, back to you. ten participants will be based on an average of the latest five national polls. so, for example, if it were held today that would put trump on stage with bush, walker huckabee and christie and perry and senators rubio paul and cruise and ben carson. that leaves out carly fiore ranny and graham and kasich, who just entered the race on tuesday. national security, it's always a hot button issue in the race for white house. british authorities uncovered a plot to kill u.s. servicemen. prosecutors say a man was allegedly going to stage a car crash at a u.s. military base in britain before attacking a u.s. military member with a knife and then detonating a suicide vest. the suspect is also accused of planning to join isis in syria, along with another man. that other man has arrest been arrested. >> we'll continue to follow that. naltly is covering this massive fire in new jersey. pictures are incredible. >> we want to go back to that image. emergency crews on scene fighting this massive warehouse fire in new jersey and take a look there. the five alarm blaze broke out early in north brunswick. the building is used for auto body repair and store cars for a nearby dealership. six nearby residential buildings were evacuated as precaution and major highway shut down because of thick black smoke which can be seen from 15 miles away. no word yet on how the fire started or if anyone was injured in it. >> defense secretary ash carter arrived in saudi arabia today to sell the iran nuclear deal to top officials there. saudi arabia publicly has given a cautious welcome to the deal, however in private the main u.s. arab ally is skeptical fearing the agreement will give the regional enemy too much power. here in the u.s., congress has less than 60 days to decide or reject the accord. now to dramatic surveillance video showing an out of control truck trash into an auto dealership. a speeding truck hits a telephone pole and flips over several times. this happened in massachusetts. no one there was hurt. at least six cars at the dealership were damaged and the driver is facing drunk driving charges. two brothers being credited this morning for helping save an injured shark. the dramatic scene played out on a crowded florida beach. marcus and logan spotted a hammerhead shark in shallow waters with something hanging from its mouth. logan decided to pull it onto the beach and with the help of several others remove two steel hooks from the shark's mouth. logan says the shark did not appear to have other injuries when it swam back into the water. get the shark far off the shore though. a florida man uses his head after he accidentally got off the bus at the wrong stop. take a look at the surveillance video. not the smart thing to do -- so the man apparently ran full speed into the bus door. smashing his head into the glass, breaking it -- >> why? >> first he -- because he missed his stop or got off at the wrong stop. he appears to black out for a few seconds. the story is, he aparntly missed the stop and wanted to get back on and the bus driver told him he would need to pay another $2, needless to say, he didn't keep a cool head about it. >> no. >> not very smart. >> head butt a bus?

alleged victims who accuses the comedian of drugging and sexually assaulting harry reid. in a court motion filed on tuesday the attorneys claim the woman is, quote, making a mockery of a 2006 confidentiality agreement she agreed to in exchange for money. at the center of the controversy is a deposition given by bill cosby in 2005. partially released by a judge earlier this month. in it cosby admits he obtained quaaludes in the 1970s to give to women he wanted to have sex with, but in court documents filed tuesday his lawyers say the media immediately bounced and cavalierly misinterpreted his words suggesting cosby admitted to rape. cosby has never been charged with any crime and his attorneys vigorously deny accusations that he drugged and sexually assaulted more than two dozen women. over the weekend "the new york times" obtained the entire deposition. cosby's attorneys say the alleged victim's lawyer never told a court reporter that the document was sealed, pleading to a violation of of the decade old confidentiality agreement. >> what it case boils down is to is silence. should someone be able to buy silence. bill cosby's attorneys paid for a

>> we are not ready to divulge that information at this time. this is at the beginning stages of a very crucial point in our investigation and those details will be released at a later time. >> why is he being called a person of interest and not a suspect at this time?

>> the specific i don't have at this time. >> is there a reason why your person of interest would run or -- >> i can't -- like i said i'm not going to release that information right now, based on the beginning stages and how crucial this investigation is right now and i'm sure you can all appreciate that the beginning of this investigation is the most crucial time and i don't want to release any information prematurely that would jeopardize the investigation. yes, i did, know him personally. >> can you describe him as a person? >> he was a very well-liked very well-respected sergeant police officer. he loved his job, he was always out there, eager to get involved. he was engaged in the community, from the start. and again, he was a very good friend of mine. and this is a tremendous loss to myself and to our organization and to our community. i'm sorry, i need to go back to the police department right now, so that'll be the end of this conference. but we will notify you when we're prepared to release additional information. >> where can we be on standby? >> we'll let you know if we're going to hold a next press conference or if we're going to release it -- >> that is acting police chief, mark koehler there, discussing some more details, limited details about the death of one of its own sergeants, the department sergeant scott longer. >> a bit of an abrupt ending as the acting chief got information he needed to head back to the police department right away. as you might of heard at the beginning of that press conference, there is a person of interest that is identified likely associated with that vehicle that was taken into evidence in west oakland this morning. they're not saying who that person is and whether or not that person was struck by the second officer on the scene, who returned fire. but hopefully we will hear more about that later today. >> and chief koehler also adding this is a crucial part in the beginning stages of their investigation. so as you say, kris we're going to hopefully get more pieces of information as the day goes along. one very quick thing to add, he mentioned at the very start of this, not sure if we caught it or not, that when sergeant longer approached the car, it was without warning and without provocation that he was fired at. that was a bit of detail we hadn't received earlier. >> and we don't happen to know all of the specifics of how this killing happened this morning, to know that it is a huge blow to the hayward police department and certainly our thoughts go out to the hayward police department, along with the family, the two daughters, sergeant lunger as they start to think about what life is going to be like without their father. we'll have all the details coming up in our 11:00 newscast and another update in about 10 minutes. dull and boring hair?
