[Baldwin:] You're watching CNN here. And we're following breaking news out of Las Vegas, Nevada. Here is the situation. And we're not showing you live pictures at the moment because we're having to move our truck because this is such a fluid situation. But what we have been looking at is a massive police presence, law enforcement on the ground and also in the air. A standoff is taking place. Here you go. Here are some pictures perhaps from a moment ago. Why is this significant? Because the house in which the standoff has been occurring is just a block away from really what was the ground zero of this road rage, this fatal road rage incident from a week ago in which a mother, a wife was shot and killed in her front yard. That all stemmed from when Tammy Meyers, is her name, she and her daughter went out to do a driving lesson. At some point, they encountered a driver. And there was some sort of altercation. The daughter reaches over, honks the horn. Something happens around there. The something, I'm purposely being nebulous. We don't entirely know. Mother and daughter go back home. The son comes into the car. The son has a gun. They return looking in the neighborhood for whatever reason and then that car and the other driver return back to the this home a block away from where we're looking, and this mother there is a shoot-out back and forth, and the mother is shot and killed. Whether or not particular situation that we have been watching the standoff is at all connected that is question number one. Let me just look down at my e-mail. We're hearing now Las Vegas police is currently in the tactical phase of taking the suspect into custody in the road rage homicide investigation. So perhaps they have found this individual. I say perhaps. That's just what I'm getting from P.D. in Las Vegas. I have got Nancy Grace with me. I have got Danny Cevallos with me and we have Sara Sidner and crew somewhere in this neighborhood in Las Vegas. We will check in with her momentarily. But, first, Nancy Grace, to you. When you hear the tactical phase, taking the suspect into custody in the road rage homicide investigation, does that tell you they have got this guy?
[Nancy Grace, Host, "nancy Grace":] Yes, it does. But I want to tell you another thing. Right before this went down about 10, 15 minutes before you put this banner up on your screen, I was on the phone with the father, Robert. And he was telling me what happened at the initial incident. And what he described to me was that they had this altercation with the shooter, that then the mom gets scared, she races home, she says to the girl, go in, I love you, baby, stay in the house, let's get the car away from the house. At that moment, they felt that the perp had already been following them. The son runs out. They take off. They're getting the car away from the house. This is what the father has just told me. They're out. They feel the guy is in their neighborhood. They see him. And at that time, the guys start shooting at them. They at that time do not fire back. They race back home. The guy follows and that's when the mother gets shot. That's what the father has just told me.
[Baldwin:] OK. So just to be clear, it wasn't this notion that this mother and son had gone out with this gun to find this driver in the neighborhood. According to the father, they were trying to get out of there.
[Grace:] Yes, to get the car away. They leave the little the girl there. They get the car away from the house. They feel the guy is following them and this is what the father, Robert, told me. Fifteen minutes later, I look up and I see your banner and hear what you said. I had just hung up with the father 20, 15 minutes before this standoff is going down. It's very odd. This means that they're right. If these reports are true, the shooter is in their neighborhood and was trying to find their house.
[Baldwin:] Yes. I want to play you something. I don't know if you saw this since you were on the phone with Mr. Meyers and put the phone down. We have just turned around this is when he happened to walk out and our camera caught him. Take a look at this moment.
[Meyers:] Are you all happy? You made my wife look like an animal and my son. There's the animal a block away! Are you happy?
[Baldwin:] Clearly distraught. He's lost his wife days ago.
[Grace:] So upset.
[Baldwin:] Absolutely upset, but when he says the animal is right over there, it makes me wonder if the suspect did he say anything to you? Does the suspect live in the neighborhood?
[Grace:] He said the mom was afraid. This is according to the son and the girl, the little girl. They were afraid he lived in the neighborhood, that he was in the neighborhood. And when he was on the phone with me right before this whole thing went down, he was saying they're treating my son and my wife like they're dogs, like they're animals. They didn't do anything wrong. My wife would never have gone looking for trouble. Never. She wanted to get the car away from the house and leave the girl, the little girl, there.
[Baldwin:] Sara Sidner, I understand we have you on the phone now. Sara, can you hear me?
[Sidner:] Yes, I have got you.
[Baldwin:] I understand that the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department now have this suspect in this road rage incident investigation in custody. Can you confirm that?
[Sidner:] I cannot confirm that. I can tell you right now what we're going told is that they have pushed all of the media back. They have still an active scene. There are still officers who are down on the ground. We just saw the mother of whoever was in that house. She came by us and she said, that's my son in there. He is threatening to do something to himself. She was very emotional. She walked by us. She kept walking down with the detective down toward the house, which has been surrounded by police, the SWAT team on the scene trying to deal with this situation. I cannot confirm to you right this second at that they have definitely gotten this particular person in this particular neighborhood one street away from the Meyers' house, whether that person is indeed the suspect of the road rage incident that ended up leaving that mother of four, Tammy Meyers, dead. But I can tell you that we have seen the mother of the person who is inside that house, who is distraught herself, worried about the safety of her son, of course, and really desperate to find out what is going on. I see detectives who have come up. We're going to try to get some more information from them, but this case is one thing after another. It's happening so quickly, and clearly the father of the sorry the husband of Tammy Meyers believes this has something to do with her death, something to do with that road rage incident. He is beside himself with grief and anger and frustration. As you might imagine, this family has been destroyed by this. No matter who escalated this situation, when you look at this family and how close she was with her four children and her husband, it is heartbreaking, no matter what the circumstances are. Yes, police say she may have had a hand am escalating the situation because her and her son jumped back into a car after they had left the suspect. They came back, they went to find him, the son was armed, but they returned home, nobody was hurt. They got back towards their house, and that's when the suspect came up, shot, and killed Tammy Meyers. There was firing back by the son. Just a tragic case all around.
[Baldwin:] Heartbreaking. Heartbreaking for everyone involved, now that we're hearing a mother is concerned that her young son who is inside this home could harm himself. Sara Sidner, I'm going to let you go talk to some of those detectives and connect some more of the dots, as I bring in Tom Fuentes, former assistant director of the FBI. And, Tom Fuentes, just help us understand and I am looking at this e-mail, this is directly from Las Vegas P.D., saying they are currently in the tactical phase of taking the suspect into custody in this road rage incident. Tactical phase, tell me what that means.
[Tom Fuentes, Cnn Contributor:] What that means, Brooke, is that they believe they have the suspect in that home and that since he's already they're already believing that he shot and killed this woman, that would mean that he's armed and potentially very dangerous and may not want to be taken into custody. So they're in a tactical status of not just walking up to the front door and knocking and asking if he's home, but being prepared for the possibility that he may open fire on them as they approach the house.
[Baldwin:] He this young man, again, according to Sara, the mother is worried that he might harm himself. She's that's her concern. He has to know because he's hearing all this activity buzzing around, we're looking at these pictures from moments ago, cars, law enforcement, you know, SWAT team en route, you have the helicopter above. How if you are on-the-ground law enforcement, Tom Fuentes, how are you trying to communicate with this individual inside not to harm himself, but to come out peacefully?
[Fuentes:] Well, they will try to communicate. I mean, it can be everything from calling him on the phone if they have his cell phone or home phone number or got his number from a neighbor or somebody else, all the way up to, like you see in the movies, calling out on the bullhorn to please surrender, please come outside. The issue with someone who has gone back to their own home is that when he shot the woman in front of her home, you know, that was one weapon, but when he goes home, he may have an arsenal in that house that they're not aware of. They don't know if he's got shotguns, automatic weapons or what they might be up against. They would rather preferably get him to surrender and come out of the house by himself unarmed, hands in the air, and take him into custody peacefully for his own sake and for the sake of anybody else that may be in that home. You know, they don't want to have what might happen is a barricaded subject or someone at home that's barricaded and maybe using his own family as hostages or human shields. So the potential here for danger is a lot and they will be trying to get this guy to cooperate and scale it down if he's home, assuming he's definitely in the house.
[Baldwin:] Right. Tom Fuentes, stay with me. I have got Nancy Grace with me and also Danny Cevallos. Let me just pause just read something. This is a statement from Robert Meyers, again, who Nancy Grace said she spoke with just 20 minutes ago who we saw. This is the husband of Tammy Meyers, who was shot and killed, all a part of this road rage incident. Let me just read this statement from this husband. "My daughter was dropped off. Look at the footage. Bad guys were right behind. My wife and son drove away from home, bad guys following. She lost them. And upon coming home turned on the street, bad guys are right in front. After that, bad guys opened fire, different location. My wife got home, told her son to take cover. And after he saw his mom shot, he opened fire three times, maybe four. Yes, maybe in a make-up world, she would have stayed home. Please remember statement from this animal. "I'm going to kill you and your daughter." "These guys will get away with murder now. No one gets it. These people came to my home. My son never shot until then. If it was the way media is pitching it, then why did son not shoot when they turned the corner if he was looking to shoot when he had his chance?" Nancy Grace, to you. You just spoke with him 20 minutes ago. Remind us. When the father says that the statement from the suspect, "I'm going to kill you and your daughter," when did that happen?
[Grace:] Yes. I'm going to tell you that happened right at the beginning of the entire incident. And I agree with the father. I am sick, sick about the way the media has treated this mother and her son and her daughter and the father and the son watching the mother get gunned down in the front yard. When they first started off, the mom's teaching the daughter how to drive, how to parallel park on private property at a school about a half-a-mile from the home. So this car they're leaving. A car comes speeding by them. The little girl, the 15-year-old, toots the horn. Her mom is driving. She leans over and toots, hey, you're going too fast. The guy slams on brakes, gets out of the car, comes up to the mom. He's got the mom he's right in front of her, so she can't really get away that quickly. And he has a verbal altercation. Somebody gives the finger and he says, "You know what, I'm going to kill the two of you." Goes back to his car. At that moment, the mom peels off. She's afraid he's following and she was right because he's right there in the neighborhood looking. He didn't know exactly where, but knowing they're in that neighborhood. She puts the girl in the house, gets the son out and off they go. That's what he told me.
[Baldwin:] Danny Cevallos, you're watching all of this. Your thoughts.
[Cevallos:] Well, the narrative seems to be changing. And ultimately the question is going to be, what did the mom and son exactly do?
[Baldwin:] Let me stop you right now. Forgive e. We have a live news conference going on in Las Vegas. Let's take you to that live.
[Unidentified Male:] ... the homicide of Mrs. Meyers into custody at this point. As you can imagine, this is a tactical situation. It is an active, ongoing situation. There won't be much information that we will be able to provide from this point forward. Once more information becomes available, we will be able to release that to you. So, just, again, right now, we are in the tactical phase, attempting to take a suspect into custody who we believe to be involved in the homicide of Mrs. Meyers.
[Sidner:] This is Sara from CNN. Can I just quickly ask you, is it the person you think, you believe shot Mrs. Meyers?
[Unidentified Male:] It is. It is.
[Baldwin:] OK.
