Carol. Cop killers on the loose, the community in mourning. Local, state and federal agents looking for the suspects. Now, here is what they tell us. It all started yesterday at about 8 00 a. M. When lieutenant gliniewicz was about a mile from where im standing now, investigating suspicious activity. He radioed into dispatch. He described the suspects as two white males and a black male. And then that radio conversation went to radio silence. They sent in backup and of course those Police Officers that went found lieutenant gliniewicz shot and killed. And that unleashed this manhunt for these suspected cop killers. Were also learning more about this lieutenant whos loved in this community, carol. Weve learned that he started a program for children who were aspiring to be Police Officers. Its a program called explorer. And he touched so many lives and so many young people that were hoping to be Police Officers and who looked up to him. Here is what one of those individuals had to say. It actually makes me want to become a Police Officer more because of this. Truly its just what happened today is unbelievable. When i heard the news i didnt think it was going to be him. I thought it would have been him apprehending the suspect. I didnt think it would be the other way around. When i heard it, i was dws st e devastated. It was heartbreaking for me, my explorers, the community, everyone. Reporter these people cant even mourn in peace today, of course because those cop killers still on the loose. They are considered armed and dangerous. With those three suspected cop killers still on the loose, the Fox Lake Community remains on edge. Joining me now on the phone is a longtime resident of fox lake. She was out walking her dog yesterday when police told her she needed to leave her subdivision so they could conduct a search. Thank you so much for being with me this morning. Good morning. How are you . I want to start off by saying my k condolences to the Police Department and his family. He will be deeply missed. Yesterday when i was at my residence, i was walking my dog. I was approached by two Police Officers telling me that i need to go to my home or get in my vehicle and leave, that there was a shooting two minutes away from my house and that theyre unable to find the suspects and that there is a possible motive that they were hiding in our forest preserve behind our house. So i ended up leaving and was unable to return to my residence for over nine hours yesterday. Oh my goodness. I know you have a tenyearold son and i know several School Districts are closed today. What are you telling your kid . The School Called us around 1 30 yesterday and told us to come pick up our children. The school was on safety lockdown. They required us parents to go on the property, present identification, say who we are, who were picking up. Then the School Administration walked the children out one by one with somebody from the administration to make sure they were given to their parents and the car was who they belonged to. Right now all hands on deck in addition to help from the fbi, police are using canine units and helicopters to comb through the search zone. However, there are tremendous challenges, including densely wooded areas. Joining me now to talk about that aspect of this story, cnn Law Enforcement analyst and former fbi assistant director tom fuentes. And detective Sergeant Joseph ja jac jackalone. Tom, i know police are searching for who white men and a black men. Thats all the Information Police have on the suspects. How do you conduct a search if you dont have any better description of the suspects . Youre exactly right, carol. You would hope that early in the investigation yesterday that somebody would have seen them together, which would be an identifier in and of itself, the three people together, or that they would have turned up on some Security Camera in a nearby store or gas station. And then they would have some type of a clothing description, more accurate physical description. So far it sounds like because of the dispatch being abrupt and the officer being killed before providing a more detailed description, they dont have a lot to go on. You know, now the case will focus on intelligence also, trying to found out is there a robbery crew theyve been pursuing in the greater chicago metro area that consists of two white men and a black men. Is there a known group of offenders that might meet the Group Description . Beyond that, this is a difficult investigation. The officer was stripped of his gun and maybe his police radio. What does that tell you about the suspects . They have at least one firearm and now they have two. I think they took his taser too. Maybe some touch dna, they had to grab a hold of this thing. Like tom says, surveillance cameras in and around the police. We dont know if the officer had a body cam or if there was a dash cam in his patrol vehicle that might lead to further clues. There hasnt been an officer shot in this midsized town since 1980. Could that be one reason why the officer didnt wait for backup . Its hard to know. Did he see they had a vehicle and didnt have a chance to radio that in . Because whatever means of transportation they had to get to that location may have been what they used to get away. Without a description, you know, they could be a long way off. They could be in Downtown Chicago in about an hour, hour and a half of that shooting. Normally the situation like this, in a somewhat rural area 50 miles from Downtown Chicago, its a recreation area, lot of vacation homes. Boating is popular on the chain of lakes up there, fishing. These guys had a great head start also. By the time you get enough officers up there to try to set up a perimeter, they could already have been long gone. Joe, what are the odds of police tracking these people down . The odds are going to be you know, right now theyre really behind the eight ball. They have zero information to work with. This is where you need to get the Crime Stoppers money out there, the reward money. Somebodys got to know something about these guys. Like tom says, it could be a burglary crew. You have to look through all the complaint reports and see whats going on, see who matches the description. Were also watching for the start of a Pretrial Hearing in the freddie gray case. Freddie gray didnt have to die. Tell the truth and stop the lies. Demonstrators have already gathered in front of the courthouse chanting and carrying signs. A Police Spokesman says his agency is prepared for these protests but anticipates only peaceful gathers. These men and women are gathering because of these individuals, the six Police Officers facing charges from illegal arrest to the depraved heart murder in the arrest and death of freddie gray back in april. We dont expect to see these officers in court today. But weve going to be hearing from their attorneys. Jean casarez is in baltimore following this story. Tell us more, jean. Reporter hi, carol. The hearing starts in about 30 minutes. I was actually able to go into that courtroom yesterday. You see 11 chairs over on the defense side where the Defense Attorneys will sit today as they argue these very very important motions. There are protesters outside the courthouse, few in number. And there is definitely an increased Law Enforcement presence there. This community is really ready for anything, because this hearing is so important to the trial itself. The Police Telling their staff they cannot take leave today. That everyone who is going to be off today needs to be on the force in uniform, ready to go if needed. Community activists are encouraging peaceful protests and demonstrations around the community, even going this time to the higher socioeconomic areas. On board first this morning will be whether to dismiss any or all of the charges. The defense is saying there are no basis in fact for these charges. Each side will have 15 minutes to argue their point, not that long. The judge already has the written motions. And then a very important issue, should the state attorney be recused because of conflicts of interest . The defense wants to put as Witnesses Today some of her staff, an assistant medical examiner, who allegedly according to defense documents had a secret meeting with the Prosecutors Office the day before the charges were announced. The judge said, no, were not going to have them as witnesses at this point. This afternoon will be will to receiver defense in this trial. And well see if the protests continue and if they even increase. This community is ready and they all are aware the decision today and we may not know the answers today, but the decisions could be critical for the trial up coming in october. So jean, that hearing gets underway in about 20 minutes. Well check back. Still to come in the newsroom, is Carly Fiorina heading to the big debate stage .

That could be Carly Fiorina. Cnn has amended the criteria for that debate to allow any candidate ranking in the top ten between august 7th and september 10 to participate. That changed due to a lack of National Polling since the first debate last month. And fiorina, who says she is clearly in the top five, praised the decision. They have said that the cause was a lack of National Public polling data following the august 6th debate. And that is the truth. There were so many polls prior to august 6th and there have been very few since august 6th. If you just average the polls you come up with an answer that doesnt reflect current reality. Donald trump had this to say about his republican rival just a few weeks ago. Shes a very nice woman. She got fired. She did a terrible job at hewlettpackard. She lost in a landslide. Other than that, shes a very nice woman. Here so jeffrey, i want to s with you. Mr. Trump tweeted that fiorina has, in his words, zero chance. So should we expect fireworks on that debate stage if fiorina gets in . I am sure thats what president ial debates are all about. It should be he supported her being in this debate. As did ben carson. She tweeted out a thanks to both of them. The nonpoliticians in the group have sort of stuck together on this. Sure, shes a candidate for president. Of course she should be on that stage. She has proven her metal here. Hell dish whatever and shell dish whatever. Thats the way president ial debates work. Thats the way they should work. If they cant handle Something Like this, then they shouldnt be in the oval office in the first place new york ci, no mat is. Larry, was fiorina have a chance . A lot depends on this debate. This is going to be a very different debate than the first one. The first debate the candidates were really tentative. They didnt really want to attack each other for the most part. This time its katie bar the door. Fiorina and six or seven of the other candidates will be going against donald trump and of course he will give it right back to them. It should be an exciting forum. For Carly Fiorina, this is the opportunity for her to really get in the fight. Right. Absolutely. So the big war going on at the moment now is actually between donald trump and jeb bush. In fact, jeb bush fired back again this morning. He released a quiz. Its titled, which candidate are you. It takes a swipe at Donald Trumps policy fopositions. One asks would you rather support a candidate who supports the iran deal. Another question, would you rather support a candidate who strives to shake every hand everywhere or is a germophobe . You have donald trump, you have clear democratic tendencies. So jeffrey, donald trump was on abc this morning and he said, you know, i was a democrat back in the day because everyone in new york was a democrat. He was an opportunist then. Why isnt he an opportunist now . The republican establishment in the day in 1976 went after Ronald Reagan for saying he had once been a democrat when he was challenging gerald ford. He was extremely liberal in the day. So, you know, the question is where are these people now. Winston churchhill, not only as they said in the trade, ratted. He reratted. He left the conservative party in britain and came back. I dont question that donald trump is a conservative. He is where he is. He says what he says. And hell be on that stage ready to go. I guess theres no such thing as a rino anymore . A republican in name only . That definition has been scrambled, mainly by donald trump. Hypocrisy is the life blood of politics. Politicians turn on a dime. We all know that. I cant think of a politician who hasnt flipflopped on at least some major issues. That is not whats concerning republicans about donald trump or for that matter jeb bush. I dont think theyre concerned about donald trump being a germophobe either. No, probably not. Ill have to leave it there. Thanks for both of you. Be sure to watch wednesday september 16th as condition hosts our first republican president ial debate. Still to come in the newsroom all right.
