Dr. Jonathan lapook, cbs news, new york. The family of a florida woman who died after being forcibly removed from a hospital by police say they want a federal investigation. Barbara dawson went to the e. R. Complaining of stomach pains. When the doctors tried to discharge her, she refused to leave. Police were called and placed her under arrest for Disorderly Conduct and trespassing. On the way to the squad car, she collapsed and later died. The family obtained the dash cam recording. Either walk out of here peacefully oh, my god. Or i can take you out. Barbara dawson said she was in pain and couldnt breathe. To remove her oxygen mask. Lets take this off. You cant take that off i can. No, you cant yes, maam. U have to leave. Dawson arrived by ambulance to Calhoun Liberty hospital eight hours earlier. Angela was with her biece throughout the ordeal. I said she need her oxygen. No, she dont. T. Shes fine, shes fine. Leave it alone i cant even breathe the officer suspected dawson was trying tavoid going to jail. Put your r nds behind your back. I cant breathe. You seem all right. Please, i beg you. Dawson collapsed outside of the hospital just feet from the police car. Falling down like this, laying down, thats not going to stop you from going to jail. Shes sck. Shes okay. Dawson remained next to the police car for 18 minutes. Staff tried to get her in. Shes jusdead weight. Lay her back. Somebody grab her feet. Minutes laterera doctor demanded dawson be readmitted to the hospital where she died. Calhoun Liberty Hospital said they continue to grieve the loss of the patient and we arar setting up medical and Community Task force to review best practices and better communication. In that tape, she was begging for help. Martha smith dixon said her cousin was a pillar ofofer community. Everyone knew barbara. She was a jewel. Benjamin crump is representing dawsons family. Obody should die likikthis. Today it was barbaba dawson. If we dont speak to this, it will be someone else tomorrow. The medical examiner determined she died from a blood clot in her lung. Hospspal staff said they had not discovered that problem when they discharged her. State and local authorities are investigating. The restaurant chain cooperate with a federal criminal investigation into the safety of its food. The probe focuses on a norovirus outbreak at a restaurant in california. The company is reeling aftert was linked to outbreaks of food born illnesses in at least nine states last year. Police are asking for the publics help in finding a pair of Jewelry Store robbers who have been terrorizing the south. Investigators believe theyve hit half a dozen stores in five states. Mark strassmsm reports from just outside of atlanta. Reporter this mall is where this string of robberies began last april. These thieves have a plan and they stick to it. Find a Jewelry Store near a highway and hit the store when it first opens and there are no customers. The Surveillance Video shows one of the brazen thieves pulling off the latest heist earlier this week. The woman, believed to be in her late 20s or early 30s, locks the store in north carolininbefore making her way to the expensive merchandise. This was after the fbi says she forced two employees into a back room at gunpoint and zip tied their hands. Federal agents belilie the woman and man are behind six heists in georgia, florida, south carolina, tennessee, and North Carolina. These are very well planned Jewelry Store robberies. They are not just walking into the Jewelry Stores. They have some knowledge about the industry. I believe theyre possibly bringing them to larger city such as new york city or some of the larger cities where these theft rings operate from. Reporter Authorities Say the team carefully inspects their targets. In panama city beach, the woman spoke to an employee the day before she was caught shoving diamonds and watches into a plastic bag. She wears gloves to hide any fingerprints, but for some reason has never hidden her face. The most challenging part of clear and we have such good Surveillance Footage that nobody has come forwa yet with information to help us identify these people. Repepter its believed t t thieves have stolen millions in high end jewelry. They pick stores by the interstate, presumably for an easy escape, using a different` car each time to avoid further detection. With social media these d ds, somebody knows who they are. Theyre using services in the community, such as hotels, restaurants, gas stations. They coulde anywhere. Repepter again, the fbi is hoping somebody will identify the woman at least very soon, because shes making no effort to hide her face as weve seen th in Surveillance Video. Theyre also worried that these thieveveare becoming more confident and their robberies could become more risky and violent. Will be right back. On the president ial campaign trail, it was standing room only in burlington, vermont for Donald Trumps latest campaign rally. He continues to hammer rival ted cruz for being born in canada. He said d should go before a a judge to determine if hes qualified to be president. Major garrett was with the Cruz Campaign in iowa. Reporter ted cruz has argued nine cases before the united state preme court, graduated with honors from Harvard Law School and was once a collegiate debate champion. None of that has prepared him for the birther debate now raging with donald trump. Or for trumps unsolicited legal advice. I dont like the issue. I dont like bringing it up. Reporter against all evidence, donald trump claims an im doing this for theood of ted because i like him and he likes me. Reporter but for cruz, born in canada to an american mother, the issue is an unwelcome, possibly damaging distraction. Everybody tells me he had a joint passport. Reporter the real estate mogul offered cruz, a harvard trained lawyer, some legal advice. Go to the federal court to ask for a declaratory judgment. Reporter cruz denied having a canadian passport and as a legal matter it is moot. As a legal matter, its straightforward. I would note its occurred many times in history. John mccain was born in panama, but he was a natural bn citizen because his parents were u. S. Citizens. Reporter but mccain, a frequent opponent of cruz in the senate, offered no help. Mccain faced similar questions in 2008 due to his birth on a u. S. Military base overseas. Thats different from being born on foreign soil. So i think there is a question. I am not a constitutional scholar on that, but i think its worth lookingngnto. Reporter in new hampshire, this is donald trump trying to put everybody into his own reality tv show. Im not going to play it. Reporter and rand paul says one e ing is for certain hes qualified and eligible to be the Prime Minister of canada. Reporter cruz is in the middle of a weeklong bus tour ofofowa. Hoping to avoid the seeds of doubt trump is trying to plant.

Four years ago, charlie, Rick Santorum carried this county with 101 votes. Back in washington, Vice President joe biden says he still thinks about what might have been.

I regret it every day, but it was the right decisionor my fafaly and me. Reporter in an interview with wvit, Vice President joe biden conceded he still is conflicted about his decision not to run for president. I plan on staying d dply involved. Weve got two good candidates. Theres a real robust debate between hillary and bernie. Reporter bidenen remarks come nearly three months after announcing he would not run for president. I believe were out of time, the time necessary to mount a Winning Campaign for the nomination. Reporter the Vice President always said it was the grief over the death of his son, bo, from brain cancer that made the decision so difficult. I went out to denver and landed at a military base and families. And a guy in the back yells, major bo biden, served with him in iraq. All of a sudden, i lost it. How could you not . Reporter days after he annoced he wouldnt seek the white house, he said how his son felt about him running. Some people have written that, you know, bo on his deathbed said dad, youve got to run and there was this hollywood moment. Nothing like that ever, ever happeneded as a matteteof fact, it was the almost the opposite at that point. It was almost, dad, youve got to stay strong, because the family is going to look to you, dad. Winter has finally arrrred on the east coast, and thats good news for ski resorts.

Crude, scott, hit a 12year low today. 33 a barrel. The price has fallen by nearly half just since may, when it was 60.

Reporter we rode with ted cruz on day four of a sixday s tour of iowa and asked about his birth in canada, and Donald Trumps legal advice. This issue is a nonissue. The law is quite clear that the child of a u. S. Citizen born abroad is a nanaralborn citizen. Reporter you perceive this as an attack. Donald trump says hes trying to help you. The funny thing about politics, its fairly unusual for your opponents, who are running for the same position, to be e tually trying to helel you. I will hear their prayer and forgive their sins, and i will heal their land. Reporter cruz has climbed to the top of the iowa polls by rerehing out to evangelicals and social conservatives. In 2012, 57 of republican caucusgoers describe themselves as evangelicals. Conservative. But cruz says his strategy does not rely just on iowa or new hampshire, whose more moderate electorate has not been as welcomg. Thehe are a lot of candidates in this race who have to win iowa. There are a lot of other candidates who have to win new hampshire. From our perspective, we dont view any one state as a must win. Were going to c cpete hard and try to win everywhere. Reporter cruz has taken a harder line on immigration than trump, opposing trumps willingness to allow deported immigrants to return to the u. S.

Police said there were wires coming out of his s cket, as if from a suicide vest, shot him dead. An examination of the body found no bomb, but police say they did find a handwritten note nearby. I was really concerned because there was a school, you know, just near the Police Station. Reporter the attacker was later identified as a local petty thief known to police but with no known connection to any terrorist group. He apparently acted alone. Paris was already on edge before the incident. It took place as president Francois Hollande led a ceremony commememating the victims ofofhe Charlie Hebdo massacre a year ago. And the memories of the second wave of attacks less than two months ago are stitl vivid. President hollande said france was now living under a constant threat and Charlie Hebdos typically defiant anniversary cover suggested why. A godlike image carries an Assault Rifle murder in the name of religion. The killer, it said, is still on as terror attacks go, scott, this one, an apparent loner with a knififand fake bomb, is less deadly than the others which have taken place here, but it still sends a message the enemy is among us.

Federal agents believe the woman and man are behind six heists in georgia, florida, uth carolina, tennessee, a a North Carolina. These are very well planned Jewelry Store robberies.
