avoid the choir room. she also spoke with one of the students, who was taken to the hospital. she's now weighing the risks of returning this morning. >> it was just really alarming because, you know, we would think that there wasn't anything going on and we haven't seen anything like suspicious or, you know, smelled or heard anything. >> we didn't find anything. no readings on our monitors. p-g-and-e's found nothing either . so we're still at a loss as to what caused this. >> school and school employees and firefighters say p-g-and-e's confirmed there was no gas or carbon monoxide leak, so the cause of the sudden and widespread illness is still unknown. at this hour. we are told the students that were hospitalized because of this are recovering. back at home this morning, live in napa. lena howland abc seven news. >> thanks so much, lena. and this morning we're seeing new video of the exact moment gunfire broke out at the kansas city super bowl victory parade. as you can see, the crowd immediately disperses from

size before that shooting was around a million people, and the shooting happened despite the presence of more than 800 police officers in the area. but now some security experts are raising the question of whether that was enough security and officers for that event. >> julian, thank you, gloria. 605 right now, and as drew mentioned earlier, back to back storms are heading our way. and that's sending off some warning signals for people across the bay area. while we won't see those fierce winds like we did a couple of weeks ago, there will be enough rain to flood low lying areas. people living in rv parks were, of course thinking of guerneville residents in the north bay already getting those sandbags ready and yesterday sonoma county fire district officials also helped to hand out special waterproof bags. >> these go bags, dry bags will keep their items dry, right if they have to evacuate or if it's super stormy. >> i'm going to put a flashlight in here, so i've got that. a spare set of batteries.

a judge is considering whether willis romantic relationship with prosecutor nathan wade created a conflict of interest and whether she benefited financially from him being hired based on the trips that they took together. willis says she and wade ended their romantic relationship last august, and she spoke about being a self-made woman and how she paid back wade for the trips. however there is no paper trail for those transactions because willis says she paid him with cash. and during the hearing, willis became very uncomfortable with the defense attorneys line of questioning. >> it's highly offensive when they try to implicate that you slept with somebody the first day you met with them, and i take exception to it. >> if a judge removes willis from the case, it could delay or possibly derail the proceedings against president trump and his coconspirators accused of trying to overturn the 2020 election results in georgia. today's hearing comes as the president could learn his fate in a new york fraud trial that could force him to pay hundreds of

millions of dollars in fines. and, of course, we will keep you updated on this, julian. >> thank you. gloria a landmark victory for human rights in greece, the greek parliament has just legalized marriage between same sex couples the first major pretty orthodox christian country to establish marriage equality. 176 of the 300 lawmakers in parliament voted in favor of the bill yesterday, following months of polarizing debate. >> i have never thought of it because i never had the opportunity. it was a right for other people, not me. >> today's like the first time where i feel seen like my rights, like i'm an actual human being. i'm not just someone hiding from people i can parental and children's rights are at the center of this legislation. >> it will now allow same sex couples to adopt and receive full legal parental recognition. coming up here at six, raging
