Air force officials tell fox news that they lost contact with the pilot of this f16 fighter jet at about 8 00 p. M. Local time in italy. That is when the sos call went out. At that point they lost contact with the pilot who was flying on a one seater plane. The plane was flying in formation with four other fighter jets from Aviano Air Base and went off the town of revienna. The f16 fighter jet has crashed 13 times a year between 1982 and 2000 according to air force statistics. In fact, in july of 2005, f16s crashed in one month alone. Coast guard rescue teams are searching a 10mile radius tonight. We will update you on the status of that pilot as soon as we know more, shepard. Shepard jennifer, breaking news coming in and word that the yemen any coast guard has intercepted a ship loaded with weapons. What do we know about that . In fact, the u. S. Navy helped the yemen i didnt coast guard intercept a dow packed with weapons in yemens territorial waters in recent days. On board were a surfacetoair missiles known as man pads that can be used civilian and military aircraft. C4 military grade explosives, 122 military shells. Rpgs and bombmaking equipment including electronic circuits, triggers for roadside bombs and vehicle born ieds. The uss ferragut helped fly for the mission. The vessel flew multiple flags and had 8 yemeni crew members on board but it is not clear tonight what the point of gin gin origin was. Construction accident in texas has apparently turned deadly. This is the scene frisco, texas, just to the north of dallas. According to our local station there. Crews were installing a new pipeline and the trench collapsed. A man trapped inside. Officials tell local media he died. More on this as it comes in. This will be the Year Congress finally gets it done. Thats what one senator is saying about a new bipartisan push for Immigration Reform. 8 republicans, 8 democrats, say they have agreed on a plan that includes, actually four and four. Agreed on a plan of the controversial socalled path to citizenship for millions of Illegal Immigrants. Only after the feds improved border security. And the tracking of people here on visas. President obama set to talk about Immigration Reform tomorrow in las vegas. And the white house says this senate plan is a big deal. The president believes its very important that we move forward on comprehensive Immigration Reform. Its the right thing to do for the country, for our economy. Its the right thing to do out of fairness to the middle class. To make sure that everyone plays by the same set of rules. But republican senator ted cruise of texas says he has deep concerns with proposed path to citizenship. And another texas republican, Congress Lamar Smith says by granting amnesty the Senate Proposal actually compounds the problem by encouraging more illegal immigration. Our latest fox news poll shows 66 of americans say they do, indeed, support a pathway to citizenship for Illegal Immigrants. But only if they take steps like paying back taxes, learning english and passing bad ground checks. Cac is carl cameron is is on it on capitol hill this evening. Calling it amnesty. The last Time Congress took um Immigration Reform twice during president bushs Republican Administration it was derailed out of complaints about amnesty. The idea being that Illegal Immigrants in this country would be allowed to stay and not have to be held accountable for the law that they have broken. That is the debate thats unfolding right now. And today the lead democrat of this measure, new york senator Chuck Schumer talked about it in terms that will have some concern for amnesty. Opponents because, in effect. Amp the hurtles are cleared. They would be allowed to stay. Watch. Immediately, when the bill passes. People who are here living in the shadows, would get a legal right to stay here and work. They would no longer be deported provided they dont have a criminal record. Well, supporters say that that provision that they dont have a criminal record in addition to a background check, in addition to paying fines, paying taxes and going to the back of a whole series of lines, be it for work or residency or ultimately a green card and citizenship means that its not amnesty. Thats going to be debated once again aprogressively and it all starts tomorrow when the president lays down his marker, shep . Shepard on his plan, karl, something similar to this of that on the house or exactly the same thing or, what . Well, we dont actually know. The president and the administration has signaled its general approval of what the Senate Bipartisan group of eight, gang of eight as they call it put forth today. But its a broad framework. There arent details. Lawmakers in the house have yet to weigh in. They are waiting to hear what the president says tomorrow. And ultimately all these guys up here in love to say the devil is in the detassments sings they are talking about a broad framework there is concerns as they get into the nuts and bolts it could get messy. The president has signaled he wants a bath to citizenship but he wants it this year. He ignored it for the first term of his administration. A lot of republicans republicans worried this is going to sneak up and did i involve into another debate over amnesty. Carl, thank you. An american mom suddenly missing overseas. Her relatives or flying to turkey to try to find her. Her name is sari she went to its tan bull last month and was supposed to return last week but she wasnt on her flight. Her husband says he didnt hear a word from her. You have so many thoughts going through your mind. You dont know what to think or believe or expect. You dont know whats going to come out of this. Police in istanbul say they are checking Surveillance Video to figure out what did happen to her. Her husband and brother landed there to join in the search. The state department is on it, too. Our consulate general in its istanbul they are working on the case they are in contact with the family and turkish authorities. Shepard relatives of the missing mom say they havent told her children about that yet. They are desperately hoping that she turns up safe soon. Of course, at this hour, there is just no way to know what really did happen to the mom. The fox reports correspondent Jonathan Hunt is tracking developments in new york tonight. And there, it appears there is much more to, this jonathan, unscheduled movement along the way and, well, a lot of questions. Yes. As far as we can tell, her family, were told by and believed this was purely a trip to turkey, purely to take photographs, which was a ohio state hobby of hers. We now understand from local police in turkey that she took some unscheduled travel a few days after traveling to istanbul she traveled from amsterdam to moon issue in to germany and back to istanbul, turkey arriving turkey two days before she was to fly back to the United States. The man who owns the home in which she rented a room in istanbul says he hasnt seen her since january the 20th. He also tells local reporters there he is not in any way a suspect. He is helping the police with the inquiry they tremendous desperately try to find this woman. Her relatives are there to try to find her. Her husband and her brother both arrived in istanbul today and the husband immediately upon landing spoke to local reporters issuing in effect an appeal for anyone to help in finding her. Listen. January 21st is the last time we heard from her last monday. She was supposed to come back to america on january 22nd, we havent heard from her, she is somewhere in turkey she is missing in istanbul. We have to find her. Now, the brother and husband were due to meet with u. S. Officials within the last few hours in istanbul, shep. But we just got a statement from the woman who has become a spokeswoman for the family she tells us right now there are no new developments but the Turkish Police are working day and night to find her. A real mystery here, shep. Shepard Jonathan Hunt, i will say in the newsroom tonight, jonathan, thank you. We have new information now on the devastating fire that swept through a nightclub and killed hundreds of people. Word that police have made some arrests. And further new reports from First Responders of what they saw had when arriving at that scene. The dramatic rescue ahead. And what in the world is happening here. Miles and piles of foam covering entire towns. What caused this . And how do you clean it up . Thats ahead from the journalists of fox news on this monday fox report. Shepard they died trying to get fresh air. Some victims of the brazil nightclub fire died in terror. Some of them posting messages inside begging for he help. At 231 people died in the fire early sunday morning. It happened at the kiss nightclub in the club of santa maria in southern brazil. Many of the victims said to be but teenagers. Amateur video shows the panic outside the club. Police say the fire began when a band pyrotechnic display ignited insulation in the ceiling and the flames spread quickly. People inside ran for their lives. Investigators say they found dozens of bodies in the clubs bathrooms after some ran through the doors apparently believing they were exits. Newspapers report report at least one woman posted a message on facebook reporting the fire and pleading for help. She did not make it out o. Firefighters who responded tell a local paper they had trouble just getting into the club because there was a barrier of bodies blocking the Entrance Police say it took six hours to cart all the bodies away from trucks. It has similarities to the fire in rhode island a decade ago that one a hundred people died when pyrotechnics set fire to the soundproofing foam. Those who escaped know well the pain of those in brazil, of the parents who are now burying their children and of the survivors who are mourning their friends. Steve harrigan monitoring the developments tonight from our newsroom in south florida. Steve, word of some people in custody tonight. Thats right. Shepard. This nightclub where the tragedy took place has now become a crime scene. Police have gee tand so far at least four people, two band members and two club owners for five days of questioning. They want to know why there was no fire escape, why there was no sprinkler system. Why there was only one exit to get out of a nightclub packed with more than 1200 people. There was a fire extinguisher but when a band member tried to use that. It failed. Shepard. Record floods have destroyed thousands of home in eastern australia. Given rise to countless heros. Today we saw video of another remarkable rescue effort from the perspective of a helicopter crew. Can you see how the floods overtook that pickup truck trapping two women and a small child in the back. The adults put the toddler in a bag. And lifted the screaming child to safety. Everybody there survived but the disaster so far has killed at least 4 people. And the storm that produced the floods also produced this. Several feet of sea foam covering a number of roads along the australian coast. Meteorologists stay came ashore along with the Tropical Cyclone that dropped all that rain. Folks had a bit of fun with the stuff. Police say they are worried about the potential for accidents. They closed off a number of streets to prevent people from trying to drive through the stuff. The guy who is squatting in a mansion in south florida, he does not own. Is he now trying to keep other people off whoever it is property that he doesnt own. The cops say they cant kick him out thanks to a legal loophole in state law. The city of boca raton is making life a little less luxurious for loco boy. Thats next and look at this. A truck heading right for a guy on a motorcycle. We will show you the rest of the video coming up as fox reports live tonight. Shepard so that guy who has been quawght since july in a 200 million water front mansion in boca raton is attempt to convict him. He has done so by posting no trespassing and private property signs in front of the house it is but just not his private property. The house the guy did not pay one single penny to occupy. The guy is taking advantage of a loophole in good old floridas foreclosure laws. This this law was originally intended to keep farmland to come to west. If the tenant left somebody could come in and take care of it. No. This is no farm. The neighbors have yachts and pools. Some of them are none too pleased with the situation. Cops cant do a thing. The city reportedly shut off the guys water now to try to get him to move. But the people who live around there say they have been seeing something filling up buckets in a nearby canal. Presumably so loci boy can flush his toilets. Rick leventhal is more w. Here with more on this. I wish the squatter boy would talk to us. Maybe he will. We tried talking to him. So far no response. Maybe because is he has so much fun enjoying this 575 square foot home that he has been living in now for many many months. Claiming ownership as you mentioned. Citing an antiquated legal covenant that allows vacant property to be acquired by anyone openly occupying and maining the site. He also has to pay taxes for seven years. As many as nine people may be inside. They posted no trespassing and also legal documents in the window. This guy is trying to pull something and thats great. If he can do it. My opinion, quite honestly if bank of america lets him get away with this, its going to cause a rash of the same thing happening. Its going to continue to happen all over florida and california and everywhere else that has that law on the books. Well, he has power but no plumbing so maybe he will literally get flushed out of there soon. This isnt the first guy to try to use this what do they call did adverse possession rule . There have been 38 similar claims in palm beach county. The judges dont always look kindly on it. Another case in texas where a man was found guilty of burglary and theft after he grabbed a 400,000 house outside of dallas trying to use the same law. In this loco case. The bank of america saying we are in communication with the boca row row tan Police Department and appreciate their assistance. We are taking this seriously. We have filed appropriate and legal action to have this trespasser removed from the property. As far as we know, shep, it hasnt happened yet. He is still there. Shepard loco boy come visit please. Thank you. You are welcome. Shepard im just getting word of this. Live look from our local affiliates at the scene in newport beach, california, where the cops say somebody has opened fire at a medical Office Building. Word came in just moments ago that one man is confirmed dead. Police say they have a suspected shooter in custody. All i know at this point is its an Office Building or a medical Office Building in the 500 block of superior avenue in newport beach. Again, this is just developing. New information through the this newscast. Some parents from newtown gun shooting are weighing in on the debate. Their opinions are decidedly mixed. Plus, look at this. A giant flock of birds making all kinds of formations in the air. We will show you where its it happening. Wow. Well explain how they figure out how do to do that first a fox news weather alert.
