Terror in midtown Manhattan today as a top healthcare executive is fatally gunned down. It happened just blocks away from Rockefeller Center where tonight the whole country will watch the tree lighting. Now the festive mood has turned to jitters over the shooting which police say was a targeted assassination. And the nomination of Pete Hegseth to be Donald Trump's secretary of defense could be in trouble. Allegations of his past conduct regarding his treatment of women and problems with alcohol are raising questions on Capitol Hill. Now his mother is coming forward to say her son is a changed man. Plus, cops rush to a house fire to find two children outside, barefoot in the snow. They needed help, but a picket fence blocked the way. So, the officers had to tear down the fence slat by slat. And it's been a mystery for nearly three decades... What happened to a popular anchorwoman who vanished without a trace. Last month came a possible break when what was thought to be human remains were found, but they turned out to be from an animal.
