From ABC News World Headquarters in New York, this is World News Tonight with David Mure. Good evening. We do begin tonight with the breaking news. The chilling new video never seen before now showing the crucial moments after Luigi Manion allegedly shot and killed that healthc care CEO Brian Thompson outside a New York City hotel. We have all seen the surveillance video showing the gunman sneaking up behind the victim opening fire. But tonight, for the first time, we see what happens afterward. The witness on the street, a woman with her coffee, a man from the hotel, and several minutes go by before anyone tends to that CEO who had just been shot lying on the sidewalk. Here’s our chief investigative correspondent, Aaron Kurski, leading us off. Tonight, we’re seeing newly released video of the chilling moments after Luigi Manion allegedly shot and killed United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a New York City hotel. You can see the shooter walk toward the victim, appearing to briefly glance down as he lay dying on the sidewalk before turning to cross the street, then starting to run, disappearing down an alley. This woman holding her coffee seems to hear the first shot. She flinches as Thompson stumbles, then seems to look straight at the gunman, still taking aim, before she runs off. Seconds later, a man in the hotel steps outside, looks toward Thompson, crumpled on the ground, and starts pointing in the suspect’s direction. But it would be 3 minutes before police arrive and tend to the CEO. Another 8 minutes until an ambulance pulls up. They’re looking for a male about 5′ 10 in in height, cream colored jackets, black mask, black gloves. As police launched a manhunt across the city, they allege Manion escaped on a bike, dumped a backpack in Central Park, then hailed a taxi before he hopped a bus out of town. That never-before-seen video, a window into those moments when Thompson, a father of two, lay dying in the street before police could arrive. Manion’s attorneys have been trying this week to get critical evidence against him thrown out from the case. That effort will continue next week. David Eric Turski leading us off on a Friday night. Erin, thank you. We move on tonight here to the alarming new images this evening. A woman seen being chased by federal agents near New Orleans screaming to be left alone. She’s a US citizen being chased by border patrol. But Homeland Security is now saying tonight it comes amid similar scenes playing out across the country as President Trump’s immigration crackdown grows. Pierre Thomas with the images tonight. Leave me alone. Tonight, harrowing video showing a woman frantically running away from federal agents in Louisiana as President Trump’s nationwide immigration crackdown intensifies. Leave me alone. Mass border agents chasing that woman on foot as she screams in fear. Running into her house as her stepfather races outside, initially thinking she was being kidnapped, demanding answers. That woman was a 23-year-old US citizen. DHS saying in a statement, “All agents left the area as soon as they determined the individual in question was not who they were looking for.” That incident comes after federal agents pulled this woman out of a car during a border operation in Florida as she screamed she was a US citizen. I’m a US citizen. Please help me. This isn’t fair. Why are you doing this to me? Authorities placing her in handcuffs, briefly detaining her. Officials say she was driving her undocumented boyfriend’s car and refused to comply with orders to identify herself. And tonight, newly elected Arizona Congresswoman Adelita Grihava claiming she was assaulted by ICE when she joined protesters would block the street in Tucson. She released this video of the alleged incident. This is like the restaurant I come to literally once a week and um was sprayed in the face by a very aggressive agent. But tonight, Homeland Security officials pushing back, saying Grihava was not targeted, but near someone who was pepper-sprayed as they were obstructing and assaulting law enforcement. Critics say the immigration campaign has been too aggressive. But David, tonight, Homeland Security officials are unapologetic. Pierre Thomas, stick with us here because you will have new reporting as well tonight after that major break you reported on last night here. The pipe bomb case that of course rattled Washington DC 5 years ago. that major arrest. And now you’ve learned tonight a possible motive and how they got him. That’s right, David. We had an exclusive interview with the US attorney for DC today. She told me the FBI found evidence of the suspect’s cell phone pinging at all the locations those bombs were planted. And she says the suspect has been talking, acknowledging his frustration about the 2020 election. Well, he was disappointed uh in various aspects of the election, but this guy was an equal opportunity bomber. He put a bomb outside the Republican National Committee and the Democrat National Committee. He was disappointed in to a great deal in the system, both sides of the system. David, the US attorney says she’s confident she has her man. Pierre Thomas on both stories tonight. Pierre, thank you. We turn now to the dangerous deep freeze from Chicago to the northeast and what’s now coming this weekend. This brutal cold, a very brief reprieve, and then the deep freeze again on Sunday. Windchills in the single digits and teens for many as we start the next week. So, let’s get right to chief meteorologist Lee Goldberg from WABC tracking it again tonight for us. Haley, hey David, while the big chill is briefly easing here in the Northeast, the Arctic reinforcements are coming right in to parts of the upper Midwest. I mean, look at these brutal temperatures in Minneapolis into Chicago over the weekend into early next week. It’ll feel like it’s above freezing in New York for a couple of days. Then the Arctic chills back Monday. And that’s going down to DC and Atlanta, too. The storm in the Pacific Northwest, heavy snows from the northern Cascades into the central and northern Rockies, 1 to 2 feet of snow, a large swath of 1 to three inches northern plains all the way into the Great Lakes. Isolated total 6 in. This is the front that gets into the northeast and the cold comes back to the I95 corridor on Sunday night and Monday. David Lee Goldberg and the team at WABC. Thanks so much. Tonight, haunting 911 calls from the horrific flood disaster in Texas now made public for the first time. Families across Hill Country and workers at Camp Mystic pleading for help to 911. Tonight, the calls for the first time. And we will hear only from the callers who survived because there were many callers who did not. Here’s Trevor Al. Tonight, the heart-wrenching 911 calls from people in desperate need during those devastating Texas floods. Many of the callers did not survive. were only playing calls from those who did. The river has flooded the whole house. Okay, get out. Many of the families demanding answers, asking why more was not done to warn communities before the catastrophic floods and why for so many it took emergency help too long to arrive. The flooding is pretty bad, so we will have them out there. Okay, the flooding is very, very bad. In the middle of the night, the Guadalupe River rising 26 feet in 45 minutes. Hundreds of people calling 911. They’re right on the water. Our house is right on the water. I know. I know. Um, I’m going to answer the next call. First responders unable to get to those homes. My kids, they had to go up to the second floor and the water’s rising. Yes, ma’am. I understand though. Right now, unfortunately, the best thing I can tell you to have you tell them is to get as high off the ground as you can. The floods claiming the lives of 138 people, 27 of them from the girls summer camp Mystic. One caller saying they rescued a pair of young girls who’d been swept away from the camp. We’re okay, but we live about a mile down the road from Camp Mystic and we’ve already got two little girls who have come down the river and we’ve gotten to them, but I’m not sure how many else are out there. In the aftermath, Texas officials promised they would install a flood warning system that still hasn’t been funded, but local officials are vowing to have sirens in place by next summer. David, more than 400 911 calls were released today. In total, 23 hours of people desperate for help. Now, many of these summer camps are vowing to reopen next year with substantial safety plans in place. David, it’s really difficult to listen to. We think about all those families again tonight. Thank you, Trevor. This evening, the controversial move by a CDC advisory panel handpicked by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Newborns and a key vaccination recommendation now changing. A vaccine for newborns that had been in place for decades. Tonight, Dr. Richard Besser and his reaction here. Here’s Steo Sansami at the CDC in Atlanta. The decision at the CDC tonight ends more than 30 years of routine vaccinations that by the CDC’s own estimates have prevented more than 6 million American children from being infected with hepatitis B. Eight votes yes and three votes no. The motion passes. The CDC director still needs to sign off on this, but once that happens, the US government will no longer recommend that every newborn should get a vaccine for hepatitis B unless the mother tests positive or doesn’t know her status. Parents can still vaccinate their children whenever they want, but if a child does get vaccinated, they now recommend to wait until the baby is 2 months old. These changes are coming from the new adviserss picked by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime vaccine skeptic who filled the panel with at least six members who share his feelings. It’s actually very important to illustrate to the public the different opinions and different perspectives. Dr. Richard Besser is the former acting director of the CDC. I can no longer tell people that they should look to the CDC for the best information about how to protect their children. Dr. Sue Wang was at the meetings trying to talk them out of this. She was born before newborns were getting the shot and unknowingly contracted hepatitis B from a family member. She says the vaccine helps spare her children. For me, I’m a mother with four. I have hepatitis B. I cannot tell you how relieved I am that my babies got hep vaccine and all four of them are hepatitis B free. Across public health, there are now doctors and scientists who are once again telling American parents not to listen to recommendations coming from this building directly behind me. They underline that a child can get hepatitis unknowingly from any member of the family, not just the mother. And they stress that this is a serious disease, a lifelong infection of the liver. David. All right, Steve Osansami at the CDC tonight. Steve, thank you. Tonight, new questions for the Pentagon as new details now emerge about that second strike on a suspected drug boat that killed two survivors. A source now telling ABC News that after the initial strike, more than 40 minutes passed before the second missile was fired. Another source who watched the video says those survivors had been clinging to the overturned boat, appearing defenseless. The source says at one point the men were waving to something overhead. The Republican chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee says it showed a quote lawful and righteous attack. Tonight here, tributes to one of the world’s most celebrated architects, Frank Garry, has died. Legendary architect Frank Garry created some of the most awe inspiring buildings ever designed. Most notably in northern Spain, the Guggenheim Museum, Bil Bao, clad in titanium, opening in 1997. 1.3 million visitors in its first year. Frank Garry once said they asked him to build a museum unlike any other. We want the building to be have a presence in the community. We want it to be strong. We want our we want our little mudpies in great buildings. There was the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles opening in 2003. In Paris, the Foundation Louis Vuitton Museum in 2014. He was early in his embrace of computer technology, willing to break the rules of architecture. Back in 1978, the home he redesigned in Santa Monica, California. His son Alejandro there, right in the front yard. A woodframe home originally. He then surrounded it with plywood, metal, chain link, living there for four decades with his family. Born in 1929 in Toronto, as a boy, he would work part-time in his grandfather’s hardware store. The family would move to LA and he would take pride so many decades later when his celebrated Walt Disney concert hall opened just a few miles from where he grew up. Frank Garry died at home in Santa Monica today at 96. Frank Gary tonight in his own words. I don’t want to impose myself for the ages on anybody’s life with a building. I there it is. It’s yours. Now make it into what you need it to be. in his own words. Frank Garry and his work being celebrated tonight. When we come back here, Martha Ratitz takes us to Pearl Harbor. Also, actress Goldie Han here. Her tearful tribute to a friend. And it was moving. Also ahead, hearttoppping moments as deputies work to save a 4-year-old girl from a house fire. You’ll see this. And the World Cup 2026 draw. Who will the US be playing? A lot of eyes on this today. And the answer in just a moment here tonight here, hearttoppping moments as deputies save a 4-year-old girl from a house fire just outside Milwaukee. The deputies were following the child’s cries. They could hear from inside as smoke filled that home. The officers then finding her and carrying her to safety. Officials say the child’s mother did not survive this. There’s no word on what started that fire, but the child is safe tonight. Now to those self-driving cars we reported on this week here. Tonight, there’s late word coming in from the company behind them, Whimo, now issuing a recall for those cars. The images we showed you, those vehicles racing past stopped school buses in Austin, Texas. For one, while the buses were picking up children, the stop sign out at least 19 times since the start of the school year. Whimo issuing a statement tonight saying, quote, “Holding the highest safety standards means recognizing when our behavior should be better.” When we come back here tonight, the stage is now set for the World Cup. Who will the US be playing? and actress Goldie Han and her tearful tribute tonight to a friend. To the index of other news tonight, setting the stage for the 2026 men’s World Cup. The matchup of 48 teams taking shape. The US Canada and Mexico of course serving as host nations. During the ceremony for today’s draw, FIFA honoring President Trump with its first ever FIFA Peace Prize. The president sharing the stage with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Mexican President Claudia Shybomb. The US placed in Group D. The US will face Paraguay in Englewood, California June 12th. Then they’ll face Australia in Seattle on June 19th. A third opponent will be determined later. We’ll be following, of course. Tonight, a tearful Goldie Han, paying tribute to her dear friend, Diane Katon. Han getting choked up as she honored Katon at the Hollywood Reporters Women in Entertainment Gayla. She starred with Katon in First Wives Club and she suggested Diane Katon is now one of the stars above. She is a star. And if we can have a fantasy, which I do, is that stars are really people who died a long time ago that did something really good for the world. I think maybe that’s where she is right now. Diane Katon died from pneumonia back in October. Goldie Horn honoring her friend. When we come back here tonight, Martha Ratitz takes us to Pearl Harbor 84 years later and what Martha found. ABC World News Tonight with David Mure, sponsored by Consumer Cellular. See how much we can cut your bill. Finally tonight here, Martha Ratitz takes us to Pearl Harbor 84 years later. It was just before 8:00 a.m. on December 7th, 1941. The Japanese have attacked the Pearl Harbor, Hawaii from the air. The surprise attack by Japan on Pearl Harbor. More than 2400 Americans killed,00 injured. Tonight, 84 years later, the team at the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum in Honolulu is determined America remembers. Chairman of the board of the museum, retired US Air Force General Ray John’s, taking me up in a World War II T6 built in 1944. Wow. Yeah. It’s an amazing view from the air. Showing us the view Japanese fighter planes had over the USS Arizona when they bombed it. Back on the ground, we’re with retired Navy Lieutenant Commander John Hilts. He’s a combat tested fighter pilot and former Blue Angels pilot. He’s now the CEO here expanding the museum and the mission. You talk about it is creating a museum of the aviation battlefield, right? And that’s a very different approach than what it is now. Absolutely. Where I mean, nowhere else in America can you stand on an American battlefield that was in World War II. This this is it. This is the place where it happened. These are hollowed grounds. To be able to look in the bullet holes in the windows of this hanger is really impactful to people. I’m a product of museums like this. I sat in cockpits like that when I was a kid and had that moment of inspiration. This is his young daughter, Saurin, dressed in a flight suit, stepping out of the cockpit to be able to bring that full circle now to share that same feeling with anyone who walks through our doors. There is an open cockpit of a jet that they will be able to sit in every day we’re open. The lessons that we learned here cannot be u forgotten. The children in that cockpit, it’s how we won’t forget. Our thanks to Martha. Good night. David Mure, the most watched newscast in America.

  1. Another thing that was cute David was my brother told me I should be a Mom. He said I am really good at comforting people.

  2. What I was hoping was that you would come to the lighted boat parade in the Santa Cruz harbor. It was a dream that you would realize that you need to find me and come here

  3. Why is it sometimes else's fault? It's a natural disaster! Are the ppl complaining some of the ppl that put their safety at risk to contribute? I am at a loss. I wonder what the contribution of the three complainers is/are!

  4. Everyone hates the dysfunctional parties. Nobody does anything. Congress people always leave Congress much wealthier than when they started, on a public salary. How’s that happen?

  5. Foolish cars. And dangerous take him off the road give him. Death penalty for killing a person like that sad very sad and these lawyers have to answer to GOD why is she running and making all that noise

  6. 9:26 I watched the news. Very little mention that it was the state and city failing to pay for advanced flood warning systems , even though it’s actually happened many times before, and the cost was relatively inexpensive. The blame is somehow placed on the camp owners.

  7. Yesterday on your news it was stated a few minutes between bombing the boat for the second time …..today it’s 40 minutes???

  8. I can imagine your freezing right now David, living in a an older home that is not well insulated. This house you live in looks like the house in the story the notebook where the main character waits for his wife. Your living the house in the story the notebook and I am living in the house of abnegation from the story divergent. Your realizing how nice the lighted boat parade sounds and how good it feels to be here with me. You should switch characters David and come be Four in story divergent.

  9. Why isn't anyone talking about the fact that the U.S. Navy needs a "second chance" at blowing up a speed boat? The tomahawk should of obliterated them the first missal. I thought our Navy was better than that.

  10. Well I guess I will be watching the lighted boat parade from my loft. My brother fell asleep early. Lighted boat parade would have been too much after the events of yesterday. Next year, this year the boats cannot parade very far back and forth because the bridge is closed for renovation.

  11. Giving any kind of medal of peace to a man who constantly stirs of division, hate & retaliation is truly moronic.
    What a joke.
    How much did he pay to get it, or what did he promise the people who gave it to him?
