draws to a close this labor day weekend millions of americans are traveling heading to the beaches and getting ready to head back to school. we'll talk with dr. marc siegel about how pandemic learning loss might affect students on this new school year. but, we begin tonight in mississippi were in aviation worker faces several charges after stealing an airplane according to police and threatening to crash it into a walmart. charles watson is live in jackson, mississippi with the latest on that, charles. >> good evening jon boehner the name of the aviation worker he is cory patterson. at this point police say he is charged with grand larceny and making terroristic threats. he stole and threatened to crash into a walmart in tupelo, mississippi. refer to police chief there who tells us patterson is a ten year employee of tupelo aviation where he fuels planes.

police are not sure at this point if he is in fact a licensed pilot. but they do believe patterson has at least some flight experience that made it possible for him to not only potentially fueled the aircraft, but to steal it and fly it for as long as he did. nearly six hours. as you can imagine it was concerning for police when they started getting calls early this morning with people reporting a small aircraft flying at low altitude circling a walmart. at about 5:23 a.m. this morning, called lee county 911. threatened to fly the plane into the store. that is when emergency personnel really jumped into action and evacuating the walmart and getting people out of the immediate area as they tried to tuck patterson down, listen. >> negotiators from ten to police department make contact with the pilots. they're able to convince him to not carry out this deed and to land the aircraft at the

airport. the pilot did not have experience to land an aircraft. a private pilot assisted us in helping this pilot complete t this. >> however, police said that initial landing attempt never happened. patterson abruptly diverted from the landing and continued flying north around ten oh 8:00 a.m. central time air controllers lost contact with the plane. fortunately they got confirmation the plane had landed about four minutes later and ripley, mississippi. jon, we also heard from police that while patterson was up in the air he made a post to facebook essentially saying he did not want anyone to be harmed. he apologized she was failing for abruptly ending it with a goodbye. we are also told by the mayor patterson's family was in contact with them while he was in the sky enough to convince him to land that plane safely but he said the family is very happy and grateful that patterson is not hurt or any

other bystanders. this could have ended in a horrific tragedy, close call, jon. correctional work could've been a lot worse. charles thank you very much. also, in jackson officials say crews are making significant gains as they work to repair the water treatment plant. they say most of the city should not have water pressure. governor reeves as conditions worsened at the plant after heavy rainfall and flooding. a local teacher said the problems could not have come at a worse time. >> we just started school here in mississippi. our students have been back in for about three weeks. as a second grade teacher i know firsthand how important it is that we sit for policies and start to build relationships during the first three weeks of school. and our school year has been interrupted progress fema administrator toured the facility yesterday. president biden says his

administration has offered every single thing available to help. in tennessee police are searching for a kidnapped pre-k teacher. they say eliza fresh fletcher an avid athlete was jogging early yesterday morning during her memphis home when she was abducted and forced into an suv. memphis police say it moments ago they've located suv in the mail in the vehicle is to ch change. fox and digital obtain these exclusive photos near her home today. showing her husband outside with several others. friends and family say morning job entrance jog is part of her daily routine. her husband initially reported his wife missing friday morning when she never returned home. alexander hoff with more on this. >> eliza fletcher teaches pre-k as a married mom with two young boys. the nature of her disappearance and some of the abduction was caught on video has gripped the memphis area and beyond. those who are familiar with the family tell fox news running as

a big part of fletcher's routine. she often does it early in the morning. so at 4:30 a.m. would not be an unusual time for her to be out. she was last seen around that time yesterday wearing a bright pink top and purple or blue shorts running in the university of memphis. authorities working with surveillance footage state the unknown man approached fletcher during her run. after a struggle she was forced into this dark colored suv. the tennessee bureau of investigation describes it as a gmc terrain. her water bottle and smash from the found near the scene. hart robinson is a front of fletcher's family. >> we don't know what's going on. everybody's desperately looking for her progress in your post is announcing her grandpa was a founder of the multibillion-dollar hardware distribution company oracle. her families offering a 50000-dollar reward for that leads to suspect.

meet alex thank you. we are hearing from a suspect accused of sucker punching a man into a coma in new york city last month. 55-year-old tells a "new york post" in a jailhouse interview he does not believe he should be in jail because the victim survived. he says quote i thank god he survived. i did not want to hurt him that bad. i just hidden ones. at", i can't really remember anything i was so mad i blacked out. he tells a post he just had an argument with the victim and had never hit anyone before this alleged incident. he is a convicted offender on lifetime parole. nasa is working to determine when it will make another attempt to launch artemis one. officials that could be delayed until next month. the agency called off its second launch attempt earlier today. jonathan live at kennedy space center in florida with more, jon.

>> earlier nasa had identified monday tuesday as potential backup launch days. but now that's not going to happen but late september launch would be possible if and only if the rocket could be repaired on the launchpad where it stands right now. nasa engineers are increasingly talking about the likelihood of having to roll the rocket back into the vehicle assembly vehicle building for repairs and maintenance. that would push the launch date to mid-october. the problem arose during fueling. engineers nurse large liquid hydrogen leak where the 8-inch fuel line connected to the exterior of the rocket, take a listen. >> it was characterized as a large leak by our operations team. the team tried three times to resolve the leak. all three times we saw a large leak. >> nasa officials are eager to test the new rocket orion space

capsule to help become a platform for returning astronauts to the moon in establishing a long-term presence there with mission to mars. they say scrub the are big part of space exploration and they are done for a reason. >> a look at this as part of our space program of which safety is the top of the list. >> bill nelson added the cost of two scrubs cost a lot less than a failure. see jonathan thank you. for more on the mission to the moon bringing former nasa astronaut josé hernandez. josé, i suppose it's a brand-new technology. this is a rocket that has not flown before and this kind of set up, this kind of situation. only expect to have glitches like this.

what you do expect them glitches like this. there is the very first space vehicle, launch vehicle with this new architecture from space launch system in artemis one. this is why it is not crude it is a certification flight. since everything is new we have to test it. i will tell you going to space is not a trivial thing. i was on the sts 128 mission there's 127 other missions before mine and we got delayed twice. we went to launch on a monday we did not launch until friday. it was such a comp get a piece of machinery we had to ensure everything is working correctly. it's so different with artemis one. it's more difficult to first mission. >> i'm old enough to member the apollo program i think it was the apollo one fire that killed

those astronauts because we were racing to get to the moon. racing to be the first. there seems to be i guess a slower pace these days. >> that is correct. what happens as we learned a lot from the apollo admission. when we start having deviations of what we feel is normal there's an effect called normalization and that is what led to the challenger accident. that is what led to the columbia accident. and so we have got to really be very disciplined and ensure that everything is right before we hurry up and go to space again. jon: i think a lot of americans are saying why are we going to the moon again we've already been there and done that? your answer? >> we went there over 50 years ago when we first went there. it was strictly for political

reasons. we wanted to beat the russians and be the first to step on the moon. and it turned out we did that. and then after that we turned our attention inward and low earth orbit to study our planets. this is how we learned a lot about global warming effects. and now that 50 years have come and gone are shifting outward again. there is a lot of technology that got developed between 50 years ago and today. and now we can establish a long duration lunar base are technologies there so one day we can go to mars. i think it's going to be in your lifetime in my lifetime, jon and i 15 years from now. jon: that's incredible to long trip to get to mars but long enough to get to the moon, three days or so. but getting to mars? >> exactly. that's why we need the lunar base we can test all the technologies out since we are only three days away from earth.

whereas if we go without testing the technology to mars we are nine months away. we can't really put it back and get a screwdriver or a part that we need to replace. have to get it right when he goes to mars. jon: there are dummies on this artemis mission. they are not dumb they are every kind of sensory imaginable to see what the stresses are like. what it would be like the real humans in that space capsule. >> exactly, exactly britt we have manikins that are censored with environmental sensors for temperature and pressure and geforce whispered we are really going to understand after this mission what it's going to be like for a human to take a ride in this rocket. we think we already know what it is like this is only going to verify it. when the process of certifying

the rocket so humans can get on it. it will be the second mission, artemis to which will be in 2024. those can go to the moon to is not one to land on the moon is not until artemis three and 2025 not only a man but a woman is going to land on the surface of the moon. it's very exciting. i was one of those kids who wanted to be an astronaut, i didn't make it you did. i'm in awe. also in all you have an elementary school named in your honor back in your hometown. tell us about that. >> that is correct. last thursday we attended a ceremony where they inaugurated a charter school the josé m hernandez stem academy, focus on science, technology, engineering and math. it is such a great honor to have a school named after myself. but more than anything hope the naming of the school encourages kids to hear my story and she

relays the key to being able to convert a dream to reality is education. i came from a working family and through education i was able to reach for the stars. and that's what i want to instill in all of these kids in the stem academy. jon: it's a great story only in america. thank you. >> thank you jon. the heart of the shark is winding down. long island when the hot spots to this guy holding a a sand tiger shark here? axis back to the beach this labor day weekend to see if theh sharks are still outer there. with home instead, you too can become a caregiver to older adults. apply today.

"new york post" op-ed with this, two decades for $200 billion. how teachers union sold out our kids in the pandemic. dr. marc siegel joins us now. he is a professor of medicine at

nyu and fox news contributor. my children, thankfully are no longer in elementary and high school age, doctor. a lot of parents lived through those years where their kids were supposed to be in class and the teachers unions were fighting at every step of the way saying we cannot have un- masked children in classrooms. they have got to learn it remotely. and it looks like, sounds like they did not learn much. quick start i'm not surprised. national assessment of the egg or educational progress scores you just showed a really shocking. and if you think about how does a 9-year-old learn math? they learn by interacting with the teacher. it's a hard concept for a lot of nine -year-olds and reading. reading his back and forth. not easily done remotely. with a mask, my youngest is in high school. he said the mask made it more difficult. in the most important thing of all is early studies, i and others pointed to this back in

the spring and summer of 2020 all the way back there, studies from europe did not show decreased spread of the virus. you know why? because people went home, kids went home and spread the virus at home. especially among areas where there's a lot of poverty, minority communities, underserved communities. they do not have the computers they did not have the tools they needed. plus the fact that even with the tools all of this progress was in trouble and kids got more anxious for their mental health problems as well. jon: despite the fact covid did kill a lot of people, children: elementary school children especially were not exactly a target age group of that dis disease. >> writes it. then we had our own studies out of wisconsin and north carolina and massachusetts that showed when school's estate open there is less a virus spread in the community and still the teachers unions cap with that.

they're trying to do one thing, protected teachers not protect the children. we were hollering about this a year or two ago this is no surprise at all. jon: you mentioned mental health. i wanted to read this. this is the impact on mental health as a result of covid-19 process in march and april 2020, mental health lines for individuals age 13 -- 18 as a percentage of all medical claim lines approximately doubled over the same months in the previous year. at the height of the spring weight of the covid pandemic this rising mental health amounted to 97% in march and 103.5% in april. so here are young people the prime of their lives enduring mental health counseling are going for mental health counseling. because they were so distraught over what was going on not in their schools. i can add to that one other statistic but a year ago we

found teens were flocking to emergency rooms with mental health problems because of the pandemic. and if you think, there's less socialization for there's less interaction of a healthy kind for there's less teachers overlooking students in person at saint what's going on here? that could look anxious or there's develop mental issues going on. there was less early intervention, less early diagnosis of developmental problems. really tragic events of the school does it is a structure. by the way provides regular exercise and nutrition as well the sacrifice. especially in poor communities. jon: want to turn your attention to the health crisis at the southern border. specifically fentanyl. antennal is flooding across the u.s. southern border. it has become one of the largest causes of death of americans. this op-ed from a former wisconsin medical board chairman, he is asking congress passed legislation to ban

sentinel substances. he writes assigned to permanently ban fentanyl related substances pitstop overdosing fentanyl analogue act. schedules all likely bioactive fentanyl as a class before they are created per therefore removing the incentive for illicit chemist to develop new fentanyl variants effectively stopping them from existing. it is the most basic form of harm reduction and prevention for you cannot die from ingesting something that was never created. apparently you can, just tweak the fentanyl chain -- like the chemical chain and create a new substance that is not banned by law. >> jon, i want to issue a word of caution on this. so angry at the op-ed i went to point out on the precursors to fentanyl are hard to pin down. they could be used for research and they are not banned. here's the headline fentanyl is entirely created in a lab. it does not come from a poppy

plants. if you look down to mexico, the two cartels and the wall street journal did an excellent investigative piece on this, this week. they are there with 10-foot width jugs, garbage cans, making fentanyl with supplies you cannot really police. and then they make hundreds of thousands of doses a week. the usda actually got rid of 20 million pills of fake pills that included fentanyl. a lot of them last year. that's on the tip of the iceberg. this is an enormous problem this going across the southern border. again, it does not, poppy planet comes from a chemist. like a something that's very, very hard to police. jon: in 2008t law enforcement sees about 290,000 fentanyl pills. in 2021 almost 10 million. dr. marc siegel, dr. siegel thank you. >> thank you jon.
