reward in the afterlife if they commit an act of jihaddism, martyr for isis. >> reporter: authorities plan to analyze the gunman's computer and phone records for clues. kenneth craig, cbs news, chattanooga, tennessee. >> we still don't know the names of the four marines. they're not being released till all of their families have been notified. >> the three other people who were wounded in the attack remain hospitalized. >> reporter: now the concern is growing about the safety of other military recruiting centers around the country because they are looking for new recruits, these centers intentionally make it easy to walk in and talk about possibly joining the military. that also, however, makes them soft targets when it comes to shootings like this. new york city is one place that is ramping up security at their recruiting centers as a precaution. like d.c., new york is always on high alert. former f.b.i. assistant director bill gavin is among those concerned about

recruiter safety. >> there are these military people standing, recruiting, getting like kind to defend our country and they're not defended themselves. >> at this point the pentagon is not asking recruiting centers nationwide to increase security just yet. they released a statement saying they are working with local authorities to assess the situation to see if any changes are necessary. two d.c. men are in custody this morning accused of opening fire inside a takoma park motel. the two were charged with attempted murder after allegedly opening fire at the econo lodge on new hampshire avenue. the victim is a hyattsville man in his 20s. he is expected to recover. a vicious attack in northwest d.c. caught on camera and it was all over a bicycle. we have the video of that attack. before i show it to you, i want to warn you it is graphic and it is hard to see.
