Amid fears of retaliation here in the US.

Right now there is currently no known connection between a deadly shooting at Virginia

University and a Virginia University and an attack on a Michigan synagogue.

who died before any lives were lost.

Both being investigated now as possible acts of terrorism.

The president last night saying they were aware of Iranian sleeper cells inside the US.

These incidents experts say more likely to be lone wolves than directed by Iran.

We'll get into that in a moment but we begin on the ground in Michigan.

Thai steel from our affiliate WDIV is outside that synagogue.

A terrifying scene at a Michigan synagogue today that's now being investigated as possible

terrorism according to the FBI.

Police, bomb squads and the FBI all racing to temple Israel in West Bloomfield after reports

of an active shooter and fire that was spreading across the sprawling complex.

At forties telling NBC News a man with a rifle drove a vehicle into the building with preschool

in session. The suspect then managed to drive down a hall but security guards working

for the synagogue open fire with the semi-automatic weapons. The suspect died.

It's hard to say how fast I mean he was traveling with purpose down the hall.

Smoke seen billowing from the building is believed to be from a fire connected to the suspect's

vehicle which may have had explosives inside. You couldn't even see that the hall was completely clear.

We had to send people in with gas masks to clear that area.

The sheriff says one of the security guards was taken to the hospital after being hit by the

vehicle but is expected to be okay. No temple staff or children from the daycareer preschool were

injured. They were all evacuated and hours later reunited with their families. The president spoke

about today's incident. It's a terrible thing. We're going to be right down to the bottom of it.

Law enforcement says it is ramping up security at all Jewish facilities in the area. Many were

already on heightened alert after recent attacks against the Jewish community.

From arson and a Mississippi synagogue to a car repeatedly ramming into a Habbat center in

New York and in December the shooting on Bondi Beach in Australia had a Hanukkah celebration that

killed 15 people. Temple Israel is one of the largest Jewish congregations in the entire United

States with more than 3,000 families. A rabbi there says they have had a plan in place in case any

incidents like this one and the sheriff says since the war with Iran began they've been coordinating

with law enforcement at all levels. We've been talking for two weeks about the potential

sadly of this happening so there was no lack of preparation. Tonight the community is shaken.

This is senseless. It's senseless. We have to be better than this. This is not okay so it's all I

want. Everyone to be okay. And with that Thai Steel joins us now live from outside that synagogue.

Thai you spoke with residents in the area who took in people from this synagogue this afternoon.

What do they tell you? That's right Tom. Ten yards where I'm standing right here a homeowner

was home at the time of the evacuation of that preschool. He took about 40 children into his garage

and held them there for about 30 minutes until school buses arrived and took them to a safe location.

He says he is so grateful that he was there to help. Tom back to you. Thai Steel are thanks to you.

Now to the deadly shooting on a university campus in Virginia. Being investigated as an act of

terrorism. We're learning the suspect was once convicted of providing material support to ISIS.

Ryan Noble reports it was a student who stepped in to take him down. Tonight the suspected terror

attack playing out on a campus in Virginia. Old Dominion University on high alert after a shooter

opened fire in a classroom. Reports of active shooter in the building. Just before 11am

officials say 36 year old Mohammed Baylor Jala specifically targeted an ROTC class on the

Norfolk Virginia campus. We have confirmed reports that prior to him conducting this

active terrorism. He shouted all our stated all the Akbar. Old Germain Bego's son was in the room

and called soon after the gunfire broke out. He was very distraught. A nervous you can hear it

in his voice, but he wanted to let me and his mother know that he was okay, that he was unharmed.

A group of brave students stepped in to subdue the suspect. And if not for them, I'm not sure,

you know, what else he may have done. According to police, one person was killed two others injured.

The shooter also died. The secretary of the Army tonight saying both people injured were

Army personnel. Jala is from Sterling, Virginia and was a former member of the Army National Guard.

He was arrested in 2016 for attempting to provide material support to ISIS,

according to court documents, and allegedly attempting to gather weapons to be used in an attack

in the US. The complaint at the time said Jala also attempted to provide funds to people hoping

to join ISIS. Documents show that he pleaded guilty to a terrorism-related charge.

He was sentenced to 11 years in prison and was released in 2024 according to the Department of Justice.

Tonight classes at Old Dominion University are canceled for the remainder of the week

as the investigation is ongoing. Released after those terrorism charges, Ryan Nobles joins us now

from Newport News, Virginia. Ryan, any word whether officials are looking into these two incidents

from today are related? Tom, at this point, officials have said that they've not found any

direct evidence that the two incidents are connected in here in Virginia. They're trying to

determine what the suspect's specific motives were, and they're asking the public for help.

They want to know where he was before this incident, who he may have been talking to,

and if anyone was feeding him information. Tom? All right, Ryan Nobles for us. Ryan, thank you.

None of that breaking news oversees U.S. Sen Com announced a refueling aircraft has gone down

in what it calls friendly airspace in Iraq. That plane, part of U.S. air strikes on Iran,

all as the Iranian regime is escalating its attacks on oil tankers. Here's Richard Engel.

Tonight, U.S. Central Command is saying the KC-135 refueling aircraft went down in friendly airspace

in Western Iraq, that it was not due to hostile fire or friendly fire and rescue efforts Iran going.

All as Iran is unleashing new attacks on oil tankers. This fuel laden ship bursting into a

fireball, part of Iran's strategy to drive up oil prices by stopping tankers from passing through

the strait of Hormuz. They've got no Navy, they've got no Air Force, they've got no anti-air traffic

anything. They have no systems of control, which is riding free range over that country.

And now we're going to look very strongly at the straits. The straits are in great shape.

We've knocked out all of their boats. On Iranian state media today, a presenter reading what she said

was the first message from Iran's new supreme leader, Ayatollah Moshtaba Hamani, who said the

lever of closing the strait of Hormuz must still be used. But neither his image nor his voice were

broadcast. And Iran isn't only lashing out at sea. New video showing a high rise in Dubai hit by an

Iranian drone and fires raging after an Iranian strike on a fuel depot in Bahrain. It's all leaving

Iran increasingly isolated. 135 nations voted at the UN to condemn Iran for its attacks on

Gulf countries and Jordan. Iran today also pulled out of the upcoming World Cup in the US.

President Trump responded, the team is welcome. But quote, I really don't believe it's appropriate

that they be there for their own life and safety. Six members of Iran's women's soccer team

were recently granted asylum in Australia after players flashed help signs on the team's bus.

But Iran does have one ally that is jointed in open war. The Lebanese militia Hezbollah firing more

than a hundred rockets at Israel. And one of those Hezbollah rockets landed right here and Israel's

defense minister is now threatening the Lebanese government, saying if it can't stop Hezbollah from

doing more attacks like this, Israeli troops will take more Lebanese territory. Israel is bombing

Beirut and Israeli troops have crossed into Lebanon to battle Hezbollah. Nearly 700 people have been

killed so far according to the Lebanese government with more than 800,000 displaced.

And reaching back to the loss of that US refueling aircraft, we know there was another aircraft also

involved. Yes, two aircraft involved. One of them landed safely. Now, Tom, I've been on an

American fighter jet while it refueled in midair. It is a very fast, highly skilled and inherently

dangerous operation. At this stage, we don't know much. We don't have no information about the

fate of the crew of the plane that went down or the rescue operations. Tom.

All right, Richard. We thank you for that. Back here at home, we turned out of the search for

Nancy Guthrie. Today marks 40 days since she was abducted from her Tucson home.

NBC's Liz Croyd spoke to the sheriff tonight who for the first time says while they're not

disclosing it, they have an idea of a motive. Tonight, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos giving an

update on the search for Nancy Guthrie nearly six weeks since her disappearance. Do you think

that this suspect could strike again, whoever did this? Well, absolutely. We believe we know why

he did this and we believe that it was targeted, but we can't. We're not 100% sure of that.

And so it'd be silly to tell people, yeah, don't worry about it. You're not as target. Don't

think for a minute that because it happened to the Guthrie family, you're safe. No, keep your

wits about you. We pressed Nanos about that potential motive. There is something that's come out

in the investigation that gives you a sense of motive here and why this person did this?

You know, I think it's come out from the from day one. I think from day one, we had some strong

beliefs about what happened and those beliefs haven't diminished. Do you believe it was a burglary

gone wrong? I'm not going to get into those theories. We have our beliefs. Everybody else has

theirs. Nanos says he's intentionally withholding their theory and other details in the case,

citing the integrity of the investigation. He confirmed investigators have been asking about

potential internet issues, the night of Nancy's abduction, and said they're looking into the

possibility a Wi-Fi jammer could have been used or if there was some other electrical disruption

that night. The sheriff also says he's still hopeful the DNA found in the home will lead to the

suspect, Liz Croites and BC News. And we are tracking a new round of devastating severe storms

today. Everything from Hurricane Force wins to a surprise snow storm in Washington, D.C.,

Maggie Vespa with that story. Tonight, just when you thought winter had

thawed heavy snow slamming the Mid-Atlantic. In Richmond, Virginia, temperatures plummeting nearly

60 degrees in 24 hours after hitting a record high of 89 just yesterday.

The wild weather stretching coast to coast. Multiple trucks overturned on a Wyoming highway

experiencing high winds. In Colorado, dust storms so severe, drivers had to pull over.

This semi flipped on its side. In Washington state, severe winds bringing a large tree down onto

this car, authorities confirming one person was killed. Violent storms also wreaking havoc

down south. Heavy winds and rain in Louisiana knocking down trees and power lines,

turning them into roadblocks. In Mississippi, firefighters using chain saws to free this driver,

drone video showing trees toppled onto homes. This after Tuesday's fatal tornado outbreak slammed

the Midwest, the governors of Illinois and Indiana, touring damage as cleanup crews swarm.

We devastated. There's too many people that are really need of help.

And tonight, people in this community are trying to kickstart the recovery process,

organizing belongings into piles. Now, that home back there, that's where a couple died

in Tuesday's storm. So their family cleaning up a mid immense grief. Tom, so much damage and tragedy

out there. All right. We thank you, Maggie. In 60 seconds as Americans packed protein into their

We're back now with a consumer alert and the new lawsuit alleging that some popular protein bars

actually contain a lot more calories than advertised. Here's Stephanie Gossk.

Wildly popular David Protein bars under fire. What the hell David Bar?

A new class action lawsuit alleging the calories and fat in each bar are way more than what is

claimed on the nutrition label. I'm devastated. The suit says the bars have roughly 80% more calories

and nearly four times the fat, like the red velvet flavor. The label says it has 150 calories and

2.5 grams of fat. According to the lawsuit, independent test show it actually has 271 calories

and 12.31 grams of fat. Peter Rahal is the founder of David Bar. Are people getting more calories

than they think they're getting from David bars? So the simple answer is no. It's a frivolous case

where they are using the wrong measurement and method to measure calories. David bars are made

with an ingredient that is not actually absorbed by the body. It's really a special ingredient that

allows the food to taste like that but doesn't have the chloric impact. It's called EPG, a modified

plant-based oil. When you eat it and it goes into your body, you don't digest it. Because you

don't digest it, you don't absorb the calories from that ingredient. Rahal says the company

complied with FDA regulations when it developed David Protein bars, which exploded in popularity

through social media. Now, Rahal says he's ready to fight for its reputation. Stephanie

Welcome back the Army's offering a $5,000 reward for these two mass suspects accused of

stealing four drones from Fort Campbell. Officials also posting photos of these vehicles that may

have been involved in the crime which initially happened in November. And NASA announcing they

you may remember, but new research shows it marks the first time a human-made object has been able

to alter an object's orbit around the sun. And we thank you for watching Nightly News Tonight.
