why was this force used and was it defensible? >> it's being investigated at the attorney's office at the moment and we have to wait. we have a parallel investigation with the police department but we don't come into it until the district attorney finishes his look to see if this was a criminal act that was committed. i think we're going to have to stand by for a bit and see what he determines. >> i understand there's around investigation and it's important, but when you see this video, many people thing this is over the top. >> what you're seeing is a snippet. it's an eight-minute video actually. and in terms of the activity before the video began, some of the activities after them. so that's the totality we have to take into account in the investigation. what we see is certainly disturbing. police, unfortunately, when force is used is never good to be seen. this scene has been repeated thousands and thousands of eyes really has struck a chord with the public it's been hail auld around the world as auk saysful, going after low level crimes before big ones happen, okay? in this case many people are upset, however, because they feel it's tar getting communities of color. how do you respond to that? >> we're not targeting communities of color. we're tar getting communities of barchlt they're breaking the law. and make no mistake about it. this city is one of the safest cities in the world today because of that targeting of not only minor crimes but serious crimes back in the 1990s. serious crime is down dramatically, and even the quality of life behavior that is being talked about now, it's still out there quite obviously because we're still finding enforcement. today's "new york post," you'd think we were being overrun. they document three people that have been seen acting as squeegee pests. you have those that want them in force and those that don't want them in force. we don't go after any class of people. >> garner was selling cigarettes and now he's dead. >> mm-hmm. >> they have made almost 400,000 arrests last year. that's tens of thousands of more arrests than in 1995 when there were three times as many murders in the city. so the question is crime is down, arrests are up, but you are arrests too many people for minor offenses and that that's a problem. >> look. what also is reported is the state prison population is down dramatically because we're closing prisons. the one that had about 22,000 prisoners day has about 12,000 now. why? the serious crime is down dramatically. why? because we're stopping the baever because bae crimes. do you want to fill up the prisons or stop the behavior when it's in the minor stage? critics have to decide what they want. >> critics also say 85ch of the drugs in town are black and latino. some are white. >> for example, in minority neighborhoods there are a number of neighborhoods in the city who still have the highest crime rates and that's been the case unfortunately 20 30rks years. the shootings that we're still seeing, murders that we're still seeing are primarily in that neighborhood some of that's where i put a lot of extra police in those neighborhoods. we have thousands in those neighborhoods to keep the crime down. while they're there, they're seeing other offenses they're going to act upon. there's so many elements, so many streams that have to be looked at. this is not a simple matter to look at. and it's good we're having a public debate about it. >> commissioner, i want to get to the beg security scare a couple of weeks ago when it appears people were able to get to the top of the brooklyn bridge and hoist the flag. i don't need to tell you it's been a tar get for terrorists in the past. how good do you think you've got this. >> we have. >> why haven't been arrests made?

>> therein is like a bowling all alley. they roll across the atlantic and make a direct hit. hurricanes go to the south of hawaii, but this time there is el nino, and that's what's causing all the problems. el nino is pushing the hurricanes to the north and that's why they're hitting hawaii. >> you say there's a silver lining hit landingfall. hard to imagine a good thing coming out of this but there is something. >> there is good coming out of el nino. less hurricane in the atlantic. el nino in the pacific actually interferes with the air flow over the atlantic so that these bowling balls and never hit no, city and never cause havoc. >> also, california may get some relief, may get some rainfall because of el nino. the bad news is the pacific is heating up because of el nino which means perhaps more hurricanes in the pacific. >> gutter ball's got my attention. >> me too. >> e was thinking the same thing. >> professor, thank you so much. fascinating rare occurrence. all right. well it is the ultimate tale of survival for one indonesian family nearly ten years after the devastating tsunami we all remember. more than 2,000 people died when the series of washs crashed inland and many thought the 4-year-old girl was among the survivors. she was floating on a piece of wood and saved by a fisherman whose mother raised her. the uncle spotted the 14-year-old as she walked home from school. that put an emotional reunion in motion. she rejoined the family for good. >> oh, my god. what a story. that's incredible. >> unbelievable. ahead on "cbs this morning," you're going the meet two young little league players who are redefining what it means to throw and hit like a girl. >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" at 8:00 sponsored by comfort inn. truly yours. going to the doctor without going to the doctor?

>> i believe the monthly service is around $100 a month but there's another service out there that's very, very popular and generating some controversy. it's called doctor on demand and there's an app you can use on the phone. there's a fee for a one-time visit and you can video conference with the doctor, describe your symptoms. that doctor can then diagnose you, prescribe medicines, and tell you your next step. >> we i should point out dr. on demand is by doctors on demand, dr. phil and his son, distributed by cbs. we want to make sure we get that in? is it diagnosis effective? is that going to work? we're looking at each other basically skyping. >> right. that's the controversy. they're not going anywhere soon. they're popular, they're here to say. even though the doctor can see you and you can upload photos. one of things that's mention is the laying on of hands am really authentic interaction between people and that's been shown to to be the most effective diagnostic tool we have. you don't get that. let alone you don't get blood tests or any other thing. >> how much are we losing? >> it's hard to say. it's all very new. on the other hand it's hard to get in to to your doctor on the same day. ite niece is to have resources from doctors for advice. on the other hand you don't want to have people relying on this too much. >> talk about that. that face-to-face experience, you can take all kinds of tests that you can't do on face time that are very important like blood pressure. >> absolutely. and there's something about seeing a person where you can start to feel how sick they are or not. there's something else out only in new york city right now. it's called house service. it's like uber. you dial up and have them come to your house for a physical exam whether it's an acute illness or request a physical. >> i like the way that sounds. who should be using this? >> it's still better to see a doctor in their office. if you are going to use it, it's safest for young people who are healthy and don't have multiple complications. this should be used for pink eye or sore throat, but never with diabetes or long-term concerns. >> this is probably not covered by insurance, right? >> you do know, a few are going to be offset by some insurances and some employers are even providing insurance as part of their coverage because they think it gives them greater access. so i do think this is something we're going to continue to see in the future. i hope it doesn't overtake the real doctor. >> you think about the things you might miss, the surprise diagnoses or lump or some sort of strange disease. >> that's just it. sometimes things that look very simple actually aren't. but that's one thing. if you do use one of these apps, make sure you get a record of your visit yunld go back and follow up with your real doctor to make sure nothing was missed. >> you bet. dr. holly phillips, thank you. >> thank you. straight ahead, the water is getting wild out west. >> i'm carter evans on catalina island and i'm swimming in a cove full of leopard sharks. coming up this morning on "cbs this morning," what these sharks and this robot can teach people about the great whites swimming in the santa monica bay. >> announcer: cbs "morning rounds" sponsored by breathe right. don't let a stuffy nose get between you and your sleef. it's your right to breathe right. well, put on a breathe right strip and shut your mouth. allergy medicines open your nose over time, but add a breathe right strip and pow! it instantly opens your nose up to 38% more. so you can breathe and do the one thing you want to do -- sleep. add breathe right to your allergy medicine. shut your mouth and sleep right. breathe right. add breathe right to your allergy medicine. ♪ purina dog chow light & healthy is a deliciously tender and crunchy kibble blend. with 20% fewer calories than purina dog chow. isn't it time you discovered the lighter side of dog chow. purina dog chow light & healthy. every time you take advil you're taking the medicine doctors recommend most for joint pain. more than the medicine in aleve or tylenol. the medicine in advil is the number one doctor recommendation for joint pain. relief doesn't get any better than this. advil there's a big spike in the number of shark sights along the west coast beaches. we showed you this video last month after great white attacked a swimmer off the pier in l sho scientists are using technology to reveal the secrets of sharks. >> we'll get away from these guys. >> reporter: simon has been sug monica bay for decades, but it was only a few years ago that he started standup paddle boarding that he got a whole new perspective on the ocean. >> i had visibility. i could see down. it was amazing. >> reporter: thanks to that elevated point of view, earlier this summer he saw this. >> he's going right under you. look down. >> no, i'm not going to look down. >> reporter: it was a seven-foot-long great white shark. >> there's nothing more chilling than seeing that fin cut through the water and drop down. >> if you see a shark, you just stay on your board. >> reporter: simon's not alone. according to the nonprofit research committee, shark sightings along the coast of the santa monica bay grew from just three in 2003 to 37 last year. when you're paddle boarding how many times do you see sharks?

why did you decide to do this? >> you know, i guess at the time that the chairman of the board of trustees at kentucky state started talking to me about would i be interested in being the into rum president returning, one of the thoughts i had in mind is when i went there, i wanted to do something meaningful, impactful. my second question when i met with them is how many employees make below $10.10 an hour. they calculated it and gave me the number. for the better of it. i told my board chair about it. she was sort of shocked and i asked them to put it in my contract to use the money to raise the salaries of the lowest 24 paid employees and i did it because i wanted to do something meaningful for those employees but also to get them committed to the institution to let them know they were an important part of what we were trying to do. >> we were joking before that this guy must be rich to have a lot of money, but you actually know where these folks are coming from when it comes to working for those kinds of wages. >> it is. i years ago worked for minimum wage. i have family members who work for minimum wage and i came from basically nothing to where i am today. so, you know, i can relate to and associate with those employees and, you know, i know how people struggle, and i didn't want those employees struggling at a time when we were trying to make major improvements in the institution. >> what's interesting, $10.10, why did you choose that number? >> $10.10's been discussed as the minimum living wage ought to be and i used that sort of as a rule of thumb where i wanted to go with our lowest paid employees. >> did you have any idea the reaction you'd get to this? >> absolutely not. it's been unbelievable. as i think about it sometimes, i think if i knew it with us going to be like this, maybe i shouldn't have. but i did it anyway. >> now, you realize you're setting the bar a little high. you're only interim president here. this is a temporary job. the next president, what are they going to do? >> well, you know, think they're going to continue the tradition and do the things he or she needs to do in that position. you know, part of my job now is so hopefully ances stabilized over the next year as i i work through things. i'll get through it and those savings and monies will be there to carry this on into the future. >> i know you said you had no idea this would get the kind of reaction that it did. you said it felt like the right thing to do and you felt it would make an impact at the college that you love so dearly. but it comes amidst the growing debate about income inequality of those at the top. the leadership are making so much money and there are so many making minimum wage or barely minimum wage at the bottom, this growing gap. >> right. there is, in fact, a growing gap and i think that it's something that needs to be reviewed, evaluated, and addressed in time. but, you know, as it relates to my act, it was a sickle act by raymond burse at kentucky state, not to make an address but an issue to help me carry on the mission that i wanted to do at kentucky state. >> we also heard about this restaurant in minnesota reportedly charging a surcharge because of the increase in minimum wage in their home state. what are your thoughts on that? >> every business is different. every business is unique. i would have hope thad since minnesota raised the minimum wage, they would. have taken the opportunity to pass that cal stone directly to the consumers. you had to do what you need to do for the delivery of your product as well as thinking of what's the consumer impact of all of that. i would hope that it would have gone the other way. >> okay. >> great to have you here. >> well, thank you. >> thank you so much. and good luck to you, mr. president. >> thank you. elaine quijano is with us. hi, elaine. >> hi, maurice we'll show you not one but two girls trying to and for many, it's a struggle to keep your a1c down. so imagine, what if there was a new class of medicine that works differently to lower blood sugar? imagine, loving your numbers. introducing once-daily invokana®. it's the first of a new kind of prescription medicine that's used along with diet and exercise to lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. invokana® is a once-daily pill that works around the clock to help lower a1c. here's how: the kidneys allow sugar to be absorbed back into the body. invokana® reduces the amount of sugar allowed back in, and sends some sugar out through the process of urination. and while it's not for weight loss, it may help you lose some weight. invokana® can cause important side effects, including dehydration, which may cause some people to have loss of body water and salt. this may also cause you to feel dizzy, urinary tract infections, faint, lightheaded, or weak especially when u genital yeas, changes in urination, high potassium in the blood, or increases in cholesterol. do not take invokana® if you have severe kidney problems or are ialergic to invokana® or its ingredients. symptoms of allergic reaction may include rash, swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing. if you experience any of these symptoms, stop taking invokana® and call your doctor right away or go to the nearest hospital. tell your doctor about any medical conditions, medications you are taking, and if you have kidney or liver problems. using invokana® with a sulfonylurea or insulin may increase risk of low blood sugar. it's time. lower your blood sugar with invokana®. imagine loving your numbers. ask your doctor about invokana®. are you crying? >> no. >> are you crying? are you crying? please, don rk, no crying. there's no crying in baseball. >> tom hanks in "a league of their own." this year two young girls are in a little league of their own as all-stars. elaine quijano is here to tell us how they're giving the boys of summer real competition. good morning to you. >> good morning. in the four years since girls were allowed to play in the little league, 16 v made it to the world series. this year two more girls are vying for the chance go get on that list. 13-year-old monet davis and 12-year-old kayla roncin. both have skills to help their teams' top contenders. with the state title on the line, kayla roncin hit a crushing two-run homer putting her toms river, new jersey, team ahead in last week's championship game. but roncin did not stop there. in the bottom of the ninth with the bases loaded, she took the pitcher's mound and threw a fastball low. that turned into a pop-up gives toms river the victory and sending them to the mid-atlantic final, a step closer to the little league world series. how did you become interested in baseball in the first place?
