From ABC News World Headquarters in New York, this is World News Tonight with David Muir. Good evening. We do begin tonight with the breaking news, the chilling new video never seen before now showing the crucial moments after

Luigi Mangione allegedly shot and killed that health care CEO Brian Thompson outside a New York City hotel. We have all seen the surveillance videos 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 Kuterski, leading us off.

Tonight, we're seeing newly released video of the chilling moments after Luigi Mangione allegedly shot and killed UnitedHealthcare 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 three minutes before police arrive and tend to the CEO, another eight minutes until an ambulance pulls up.

They're looking for a male, about five feet, 10 inches in height, cream colored jacket,

black mask, black gloves.

As police launched a manhunt across the city, they allege Mangione 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. Mangione'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 Gaturski leading us off on a Friday night. Aaron, 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 U.S. 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.

All right, so who are you looking for?

Running into her house as her stepfather races outside, initially thinking she was being kidnapped, demanding answers. That woman was a 23-year-old U.S. 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 doing a border operation in Florida as she screamed she was a US citizen. 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 Grijalva claiming she was assaulted by ICE when she joined protesters who had

blocked 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 was sprayed in the face by a very aggressive agent.

But tonight, Homeland Security officials pushing back, saying Grijalva 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.

Peter Thomas, stick with us here, because you 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 five 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 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 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. Wind chills 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 W. A. B. C. 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 two parts of the upper Midwest. Look at these brutal temperatures in minneapolis into chicago over the weekend and early next week. It'll feel like it's above freezing in new york for a couple of days in the arctic chills back monday and that's going down to d. C. In atlanta to the storm in the pacific northwest heavy snows from the northern cascades into the central northern

rockies. 1 to 2 ft of snow, a large swath of 1 to 3 inches northern plains of the Great Lakes, isolated total six inches. This is the front that gets into the Northeast and the cold comes back to the I-95 corridor on Sunday night into 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 Ault.

Tonight the heart-wrenching 911 calls from people in desperate need during those devastating

Texas floods. Many of the callers did not survive. We're only playing calls from those

who did. The whole house.

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, OK?

In the middle of the night, the Guadalupe River rising 26 ft in 45 minutes, hundreds of people calling 911

there right on the water. Our house is right on the water. I know, I know. I

answer the next call. First responders unable to get to those home. My kids,

they had to go to the second floor and the water's right. Yes, ma'am. I understand though. Right now, unfortunately had t and the water's rising. Y though right now, unfortu I can tell you to have yo get as high off the ground

claiming the lives of 138 from the girls summer camp

saying they rescued a pai

been swept away from the camp. We're okay, but we live about a mile down the road from Camp Mystique 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 Bester and his reaction here. Here's Steve Osan Sami 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 six 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 U. S. 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 two months old. These changes are coming from the new advisors

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 perspective. Dr Richard Bess acting director of the C. tell people that they sho for the best information their Children. Dr Su Wang trying to talk them out o before newborns were getti

contracted hepatitis B fr

She says the vaccine help

For me, I'm a mother with four. I have hepatitis B. I cannot tell you how relieved I am that my baby's got happy 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 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 Ossensami at the CDC tonight. Steve, thank you. Tonight, new questions for the Pentagon asagon as new d about that second strike boat that killed two surv telling ABC News that afte more than 40 minutes pass

The Republican chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee says it showed a quote lawful and righteous attack tonight here

Legendary architect Frank Gary created some of the most awe inspiring buildings ever designed, most notably in northern Spain, the Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao clad in titanium opening in 1997 1.3 million visitors in its first year.

I don't want to impose myself for the ages on anybody's life with the building. There it is. It's yours now. Make it into what

you need it to be in his own words, Frank Gary and his work being celebrated tonight. When we come back here, Martha Raddatz takes us to Pearl Harbor. Also actress Goldie Hawn here her tearful tribute to a friend and it was moving. Also had heart stopping moments as deputies work to save a four 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 heart stopping moments as deputies save a four year old girl from a house fire just outside Milwaukee. The deputies were following the child's cries. They could hear from inside a 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 way more 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

Hawn getting choked up as she honored Keaton at the Hollywood Reporters Women in Entertainment Gala.

She starred with Keaton in First Wives Club and she suggested Diane Keaton 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 Keaton died from pneumonia back in October, Goldie Hawn honoring her friend. When we come back here tonight, Martha Raddatz takes us to Pearl Harbor 84 years later and what Martha found. ABC World News Tonight with David Muir, sponsored by Consumer Cellular. See how much we can cut your bill. Finally tonight here, Martha Raddatz takes us to Pearl Harbor 84 years later.

It was just before 8 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 2,400 Americans killed, 1,100 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 U.S. Air Force General Ray Johns, taking me up in a World War II T-6 built in 1944. Wow. Yeah. It's an amazing view from here.

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 Hiltz. 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 2 this this is it. This is the place where it happened. These are hallowed grounds. To be able to look in the bullet holes in the windows of this hangar 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, Sorin, 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 forgotten.

The Children in that cockpit. It's how we won't forget. Our thanks to Martha. Good night.
