3 US Marshals killed, 5 officers hurt in E CLT shooting

HAVE AS WE GET. THANK YOU. >> AND YOU'VE BEEN LISTENING TO CHARLOTTE MECKLENBURG POLICE CHIEF JOHNNY JENNINGS AND ALSO MAYOR VI LYLES. TALK ABOUT THE DETAILS OF WHAT UNFOLDED TODAY. WAY WORSE THAN WHAT WE HAVE KNOWN. AND WE UNDERSTAND NOW THAT 8 LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS HAVE BEEN SHOT. 3 U.S. MARSHALS ARE DEAD. ONE ALSO SHOT THERE. AND IN FOR CMPD OFFICERS HAVE BEEN SHOT. ONE OF THEM IN CRITICAL CONDITION RIGHT NOW THAT UNFOLDED AT THIS HOUSE ON A WAR SPEECH FUGITIVE WARRANT THAT WAS BEING SERVED BY U.S. MARSHALS AT ONE 30 THIS AFTERNOON. AND WE ACTUALLY GOT A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION ON THE TIMELINE THAT HAPPENED FROM CHIEF JOHNNY JENNINGS. SO LIKE YOU MENTIONED, THEY WERE SERVED AT WARREN AROUND ONE 30. >> AND WHEN THOSE MARSHALS APPROACHED THE DOOR, THEY WERE MET WITH A GUN FIRE FROM A SUSPECT. OFFICERS RETURNED FIRE AND WE'RE THEY SHOT THAT SUSPECT DEAD OF RIGHT IN THE FRONT YARD. AND THEN THEY CONTINUE TO TAKE JOHNNY JENNINGS SAID EVEN AFTER THEY HAD SET UP A PERIMETER AND THAT IS WHY WE HAD THIS LONG STANDOFF SITUATION. THEY BELIEVE THAT THERE WERE 2 SHOOTERS TOTAL HIGH POWERED RIFLE INVOLVED. AT ONE POINT THEY WERE ABLE TO MAKE CONTACT WITH 2 OTHER PEOPLE INSIDE THAT HOME WHO ARE NOW UNDERGOING QUESTIONING ALL ONE FEMALE AND ONE JUVENILE INSIDE THE HOUSE. THEY'RE TRYING TO DECIDE OR THEY'RE TRYING TO SEE WHO ELSE THEY WERE TAKING GUNFIRE FROM WHO WAS INSIDE THAT HOUSE WITH 3 PEOPLE TOTAL AND NOT TO. AND JUST INCREDIBLE SITUATION. ALICIA TALKING ABOUT HOW THIS IS A YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WHEN YOU LEAVE THE HOUSE USE INCREDIBLY TRAGIC DAY FOR THE CITY OF CHARLOTTE. >> AND HE HAVE A 4 PEOPLE, 4 OF THEM RIGHT NOW THAT ARE IN THE HOSPITAL. ONE IS IN CRITICAL AND 3 FAMILIES ARE BEING NOTIFIED THAT THEIR LOVED ONE IS NOT GOING TO COME HOME TONIGHT. AND YOU COULD SEE VISUALLY AND YOU COULD BE ABLE TO HEAR THE EMOTION FROM MAYOR VI LYLES. AND I THINK FOR ALL OF US AND THIS IS OUR JOB TO COVER THE NEWS. >> BUT MY HEART IS BEATING SO HEAVY RIGHT NOW. WHEN YOU THINK OF 8 PEOPLE WHO WERE INJURED, 4 PEOPLE, U.S. MARSHALS WHO LOST THEIR LIVES FOR CMPD OFFICERS. ONE CASE IT IS RIGHT NOW FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE TONIGHT. YOU KNOW, REALLY ALLOWING US TO BE ABLE TO KIND OF TAKE THIS INTO BUILD THE TALK ABOUT THIS, THE QUOTE, THE JOHNNY JENNINGS CHIEF OF POLICE GAVE HE SAID WHEN WE PUT ON THIS UNIFORM, WE DON'T HAVE ANY GUARANTEES. WE WILL RETURN HOME. I THINK THAT SAID IT BEST IN TERMS OF WHAT THEY GIVE. MAYOR VI LYLES EVEN COMMENTING SAYING, HEY, WHAT THE COMMUNITY CAN DO RIGHT NOW, IT'S JUST GIVE THEIR SUPPORT AND THAT WE'RE GETTING THAT CHIEF JOHNNY JENNINGS TALKING ABOUT HIS CONVERSATION WITH GOVERNOR ROY COOPER, WHO WE'VE HAD WE'VE SEEN TWEETS FROM, BUT HE SAID WHATEVER YOU NEED, WE'RE HERE TO HELP YOU. AND THAT'S EVIDENT. WE SEE FLAGS AT HALF-STAFF IN UPTOWN ALREADY FLOWERS BEING OUTSIDE THE MARSHAL'S OFFICE. I'M JUST A REALLY SAD DAY IN CHARLOTTE. >> YEAH, AND YOU KNOW, WE UNDERSTAND A LITTLE BIT MORE. YOU GIVE US SOME INFORMATION ABOUT WHO THEY WERE SERVING THIS WARRANT ON. WE DON'T KNOW THE EXACT IDENTITY YET. BUT WHAT WE UNDERSTAND IS THAT THE MARSHALS WERE SERVING A WARRANT ON A PERSON WHO IS A CONVICTED FELON WHO HAD A FIREARM. THAT'S INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS TO GO UP TO THE DOOR LIKE THAT TO TRY TO SERVE A WARRANT ON SOMEBODY LIKE THAT. I THINK THEY DO. HE WAS TALKING ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE THEY HAVE INVOLVED AND THEY HAD NO IDEA THAT THIS AGAINST YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AND HOW GUNFIRE RANG OUT AS YOU WERE MENTIONING A HERE IN E 2 PEOPLE WERE ALSO IN THE HOUSE. ONE OF THOSE PERSONS OPENED FIRE. WHETHER IT WAS THE THEY DON'T THAT IT WAS THEY WHO THEY BELIEVE THEY DON'T BELIEVE IS THE JUVENILE. BUT THEY ARE QUESTIONING BOTH OF THOSE PEOPLE RIGHT NOW. SO ONE OF IS A SUSPECT IS IN CUSTODY RIGHT NOW. AND THE SHOOTER DEAD IN THE FRONT LAWN SHOT DEAD BY U.S. MARSHALS AND CMPD. RIGHT. AND YOU ALSO HAVE RELIES, TOO, WHEN YOU'RE COVERING A CASE OF THIS MAGNITUDE AND ENJOY JENNINGS SAID HE'S BEEN ON THE FORCE NOW FOR 32 YEARS IS NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. >> YEAH. HE SPECIFICALLY SAID PROTECTING THE INTEGRITY OF THE CASE IS VERY IMPORTANT. SO THAT'S WHY SOME OF THESE DETAILS ARE NOT LEARNING AT THIS MOMENT. BUT JUST, BRIAN, AS YOU POINTED OUT, TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A JUVENILE WHO 17 YEARS OLD AND A FEMALE INSIDE HUMID, VERY CLEAR. THEY WERE PART OF THE SITUATION. SO THERE'S SOME QUESTION IS TO, YOU KNOW, COULD THEY HAVE BEEN HOSTAGES? COULD THEY'VE BEEN AT THE WRONG PLACE THE WRONG TIME? THEY'RE DEFINITELY VERY INVOLVED IN THIS SCENE. AND THAT IS WHY THERE'S GOING TO BE SO MUCH QUESTIONING TONIGHT. HE ALSO LET US KNOW IN TERMS OF AGAIN, 8 OFFICERS IN TOTAL WERE MORE INJURED. 4 U.S. SAY 4 U.S. MARSHALS ARE NOW DEAD AND I'M SORRY IS THAT 3 U.S. MARSHALS ARE NOW DEAD. ONE OF U.S. MARSHALS IS INJURED IN THOSE 4 CMPD OFFICERS THAT ARE ALL INJURED. AND ONE OF THOSE CMPD OFFICERS MADE IT VERY CLEAR IS FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE AT THIS AT THIS TIME. YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. AND IN THE LAST TIME THE TYSONS CMPD OFFICERS WERE SHOT AND KILLED WITH 2007 WAS A SEAN CLARK AND JEFFREY SHELTON OVER THE CHARLOTTE AT AN APARTMENT COMPLEX, A SENSELESS ACT AND WHETHER ONE WAS EXECUTED I DON'T REALLY ARE THE IDENTITIES OF THESE FOR THE U.S. MARSHALS. AND CERTAINLY THEY'RE IN THE PROCESS IS JUST SHE JOHNNY JENNINGS WAS SAYING NOTIFYING THEM. >> BUT A VERY, VERY HAIRY SITUATION THAT UNFOLDED TODAY. AND CERTAINLY THAT INVESTIGATION IS GOING TO LAST. WELL, IN 2 OF THE REST OF THIS WEEK, BRIAN, AS WE'RE LEARNING TO BE ABLE TO FIND OUT THE FACES AS TO WHO LOST THEIR LIVES. TODAY, MAYOR VI LYLES
