"cnn newsroom" starts now. ♪
6:01 am
good morning to you, a sad morning in the news. i'm jim sciutto. >> a sad morning, one that's become all too familiar, i'm erica hill. for the third time now in as many days california rocked by mass shootings. in oakland at least one person is dead, seven injured. seven people also dead after a gunman opened fire in half-moon bay, and 11 of course were killed over the weekend in monterey park. police say a 67-year-old man attacked two separate locations in half-moon bay, this morning one person remains in critical condition. >> it's a big rural location, so people are working, it's spread out, there's people that live at the location as well. so, you know, it's -- it was in the afternoon when kids were out of school and for children to witness this is unspeakable. >> we can say the regularity of this kind of gun violence is not normal, perhaps more accurately
6:02 am
it's not normal anywhere but this country. in that shooting right now the can you say spect is in custody, his arrest captured on camera as you can see, this in the parking lot of a sheriff's office. officials say they found a handgun in his vehicle. all of this as friends and family mourn the loss of the 11 people shot and killed in the first of these three shootings, that in monterey park on saturday. investigators are learning more about the suspect in that shooting, including the stockpiles of ammunition inside his home. ahead we will speak to the mayor of monterey park. we begin this hour with the very latest on this most recent mass shooting in half-moon bay, california. ronald dra miracle joining us from the scene. what more have we learned overnight veronica? >> reporter: well, jim and erica, certainly disturbing similarities between that recent mass shooting in monterey park and the one here in half-moon bay. this one that happened yesterday happened over two different
6:03 am
scenes, about a quick five-minute drive from each other. that first scene happened around 2:22 in that first 911 call came in just before 2:30. deputies were responding to reports of a shooting with multiple victims and when they arrived they found four bodies, including a fifth person that was critically injured. then a short distance away at another scene they found an additional three bodies. about two hours, just over two hours after that first 911 call came in a deputy discovered 67-year-old chun lee zhou in the parking lot of a police substation inside of his car. we showed that video where he was taken into custody relatively without any issues. but it is very unclear right now what exactly the motive is. authorities say that he likely acted alone and possibly worked at one of those locations, but of course this community is reeling. here is what the mayor had to
6:04 am
say. >> our hearts are torn out of our chests for all of these individuals and families. our neighbors, our friends. the only thing we do know is that some of the victims were chi chinese, that the perpetrator was chinese, and that this was an agricultural community. they were agricultural workers. >> reporter: and, jim and erica, something very specific to this community that's happened in recent weeks, there have been storms that have battered california, it's caused flooding and devastation across the state, but here in this agricultural community it was hit especially hard. so there is an additional layer of trauma already being felt on the ground here and now these farmworkers impacted yet again by another tragedy. jim, erica? >> those farmworkers, their family members, their friends. veronica miracle, thanks so
6:05 am
much. with us now is the san mateo -- on the san matteo board of supervisors. thanks so much for joining us this morning. >> thank you for having me. >> we find ourselves asking this very same question, sadly, almost every day, certainly the last couple of days, but i do want to ask because we care. how is your community doing? how are you doing this morning in the wake of this? >> i'm doing okay, i think, you know, especially for elected leaders we feel a big sense of responsibility to provide support to our communities and most definitely proactive support so that we can do everything within our power to not allow this to happen again. in terms of the community of half-moon bay, you know, this is primarily a farmworker community and i can't imagine what the families are going through, but there will definitely be support offered.
6:06 am
the impacts of something like this are long lasting. these families will be impacted for the rest of their lives and my understanding is that there were children present and really difficult. >> yes, we just heard from the sheriff, the san matteo county sheriff said for children to witness this is unspeakable. you talk about the support that you feel. it is your duty as an elected official to provide that support. what about looking at things from a safety perspective. as jim pointed out we feel like we keep asking the same questions because this is happening on an almost daily basis and it is a uniquely american problem. there is no way around it. why is it so difficult to effect change? why is it to difficult, do you find as an elected official, to have those important substantive conversations that can lead to better safety? >> i think it's similar to what we see on a nation -- on a national level. there's lots of opinions about
6:07 am
what gun safety is. there is a rhetoric around, you know, control and taking people's guns and really the message is about, you know, doing things safely. so one thing that i've done in the past is i have made sure that -- i was a school board member previously and we made sure that we sent out information to all of our families about how to safely store guns and how to be responsible gun owners. i think that is definitely one of those pieces of prevention that we need to continue. >> you are aware of the national politics on this, as you reference. i just wonder where you are as a local elected official. are they different where you are? do people speak more openly and say, we want change, we don't want to see this happen again, we must do something, we want you as their elected representative to do something? >> yes, i would say for the most
6:08 am
part we are in an area, in a county, where we really do prioritize this. the board of supervisors just in the past couple of months dedicated $1 million to a gun buy-back program. there's definitely different layers but there also is difference of opinion on the issue of gun safety most definitely. >> we really appreciate you joining us this morning. thank you. >> thank you. in monterey park, california, an 11th person died overnight, that person of dors had been shot over the weekend at the dance studio during that lunar new year celebration. >> the death toll climbs. we now know the names of four of those killed in this attack. they are 65-year-old my nhan, 63-year-old lilan li. 68-year-old val teen noah alvaro and the youngest victim was 57 years old.
6:09 am
the remaining seven victims are all in their 60s and 70s. authorities credit brandon tsai with preventing a second tragedy at a different dance studio that night. cnn obtained this surveillance video of the moment the gunman entered that business. tsai charged the map, you may remember, wrestling away the gun forcing him then to leave. listen to what tsai told our anderson cooper. >> i would say the struggle lasted 40 seconds, but it felt like way longer. it felt like an eternity with the adrenaline and my thoughts. i was always thinking about if i let go of this gun what would happen to me, the people around me, my friends, my family, how would they be affected if i let this dangerous individual run around. >> it was left up to him to try to stop it. police are still processing evidence recovered at the scene where the gunman later died of a
6:10 am
self-inflected gunshot wound. officials say a search of his home revealed hundreds of rounds of ammunition and items that led them to believe he was building homemade firearm suppressors, those that mute the sound of a gunshot. >> they are chilling details as we are learning that new information overnight. joining us is the mayor of monterey park, henry lo. we appreciate you taking the time to join us this morning. i'd like to check in on your community this morning. i wonder if as we learn more, as we learn the identities of some of these victims if you've been able to connect with any of the victims' families or any of the survivors? >> thank you and good morning for having us on your show. i have not had a chance, an opportunity to reach out to the victims' families, however, i know that the city since the incident had occurred on sunday
6:11 am
has established a crisis resource center for victims to identify, next of kin to be contacted and for services. so our city has engaged in this process to identify the victims and to locate their families. >> we also learned overnight in addition to some of the disturbing details that jim just shared that the alleged gunman was very familiar with this particular dance hall. the why here looms so large, i know, both in monterey park and frankly across the country. have you had any further information from investigators about a motive? >> no. we still don't have a clear picture of the motive. certainly my understanding is that the gunman had a history, some history with the dance hall in the past, he frequented it,
6:12 am
and that i understand that he also met his ex-wife there, however, again, we may never know what was the motivation that prompted him to commit such a violent and heinous act. and then, you know, to proceed to repeat it again in our neighbors in alhambra to the north. >> as we're learning about this story for so many people this may be their first introduction to monterey park, so many people in this country may have never been there, don't live in southern california. i have been struck by how important this dance hall is to the community and the role that it plays specifically for so many older residents. in fact, there was an aarp study, a survey last spring which i'm sure you are familiar with in partnership with stop aapi hate and found older americans were feeling so much less safe, a lot had come out of the isolation of covid-19, the spike in anti-asian hate but one of the recommendations in that
6:13 am
report to help deal with that isolation and the fear and the anxiety that specifically older asian americans were feeling was community and was to have a place where they could be with others, places like the star room ballroom. are you concerned at all based on what we saw over the weekend that that shooting could keep people away from the dance hall at a time when it is likely more important than ever to come together? >> absolutely, that is a legitimate concern because this particular dance hall has existed in monterey park for a long time, it was a place for people to socialize, to learn how to dance. yes, many seniors frequented the dance hall but also many younger people. it was a place to hold events, to celebrate community, and certainly we want to make sure that this dance hall continues to thrive and we know that people feel safe if they can
6:14 am
socialize. the early hours, once the news broke about the incident, i think there was a lot of concern whether this was an anti-asian hate crime. regardless of the motive of the gunman, the ethnicity, i mean, we have to acknowledge and appreciate that for the past three years communities like mine have been reeling with this spike in anti-asian hate crimes because of xenophobia during the pandemic. >> it's so important and it's important that we not stop talking about that because it is very real and sadly it continues as we know. mayor henry lo, we know your city is hurting. really appreciate you taking the time to join us. i should point out there's also a vigil tonight in monterey park. >> yes. >> thank you again. >> 5:30 p.m., yes. >> if you are wondering how you can help the california shooting victims, we have resources, they have been vetted. just log on to cnn.com/impact.
6:15 am
so sad to report, there was another deadly shooting, this one in des moines, iowa. 18-year-old preston wall charged now with murder and attempted murder after a shooting at a nonprofit organization for at-risk youths. >> investigators say he had a gps ankle monitor minutes before that shooting. two students were killed and the program's founder will keeps was serious injured. police believe this stems from an ongoing dispute. two people are also in custody as that investigation continues. just a few hours from now a fulton county judge in georgia will hear arguments about whether the public should see that special grand jury report about former president trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election. could that impact any criminal proceedings? plus, cnn is on the front lines in bakhmut, ukraine, where a months' long fight has led to
6:16 am
massive casualties and now the u.s. and western allies are suggesting a shift in strategy. also ahead, five memphis police officers have now been fired after beating a man during a traffic stop. he later died from his injuries, pictured there. tyre nichols family saw the disturbing video for the first time yesterday, now they are calling for justice. >> and he calls for his mom three times. mom, he called for his mom. where is the humanity? formulated with nourishing, prebiotitic oat. it's clininically proven to moisturize dry skin for 24 hours. aveeno® he later died from his injuries,

6:21 am
sara murray joining us from outside court there in atlanta. so of course the big parlor game this morning is will the judge or won't the judge make the report public. >> reporter: yeah, i think that's the big question. you know, i would not expect the judge to make a decision on, you know, releasing the report today. i think even if he decided to make the report public that there could be a push to get some redactions. the big question is what did this grand jury recommend? they have been doing their work for seven months, they have the ability to recommend people for indictment, people that could include former president donald trump, a number of his associates, and they have done some pretty expansive work over these seven months, they have hauled in people like rudy giuliani trump's former attorney, south carolina senator lindsey graham, georgia governor brian kemp. this is an investigation that really started when donald trump made that call to georgia's secretary of state brad raffensperger in 2021 asking him to just find the votes needed for trump to win the state of
6:22 am
georgia but it has expanded so much to include the fake electors scheme, to include false statements before georgia state lawmakers, to include, you know, threats and harassment to election workers. so we don't know how much of that really made its way into the grand jury's final report. we don't know if they decided any of these activities amounted to criminal offenses. we are going to be watching in court today for any kind of hint of what the grand jury put in their report and of course any hint of whether they recommended indictments. >> sara murray, thanks so much. joining us to discuss molly ball national political correspondent for "time" magazine. good to have you on. >> thanks for having me. >> the judge has a decision to make but setting aside his legal questions here of course the question becomes the political impact. i suppose from the perspective of prosecutors, the advantage of releasing the report would show their evidence, what they've gathered, on the flip side it would allow the potential defense in this case, right, to begin poking holes or publicly
6:23 am
attacking the decision and those findings. who benefits most from a public release? >> well, i think the public benefits and that's part of why media organizations are involved in the case. but certainly, i mean, depending on what's in the report, we don't know. for all we know it could be that the grand jury found that there was no wrongdoing at all, i think that that seems unlikely. so the contents will partly determine that. but i think also, you know, trump is facing so many different legal proceedings, this is only one of them, but every time they crop up in the news i think it reminds voters of this sort of chaos and exhaustion that many people felt throughout his presidency and reminds them that he is, again, an active candidate. that could be good for him, he has sort of disappeared from the headlines in some ways, but it's always i tend to think not a good thing when the reason you are in the headlines is the
6:24 am
reason that you are facing a legal proceeding. >> there is a reality that these would be recommendations in the report. they are only recommendations. even if they are not acted on, it seems to me because i think we've seen this playbook a number of times before that could actually in some ways be a win for donald trump and even for his campaign because this just plays in once again to his witch-hunt grievance narrative. do you see that becoming even more a part potentially of what we could hear as he tries to drum up support for 2024? >> that will certainly be the way that he tries to take it. i've always been a little bit skeptical of that narrative. certainly that is what trump and his campaign would like people to believe, that trying to kill him only makes him stronger, but, again, i think for most normal people if you are a candidate for political office and you are in the crosshairs of the legal system that tends to cause some indigestion. sure, maybe there is a short-term sort of juicing of his fundraising, maybe the
6:25 am
hard-core maga base gets really excited that once again he's being persecuted and victimized as they see it but over the long term i think these things add up and add to that picture of, you know, a presidency that as people look back on it and it gets further and further in the rearview mirror from 2020 people increasingly just kind of feel tired. >> but the former president has thrown his hat in the ring already. cnn has learned he will, trump, make a stop in salem, new hampshire, ahead of a campaign event in south carolina, two early states in a primary process going forward. is his campaign fully under way, partially under way? he's done some events but a lot of them remote events, staying at home. where does it stand? >> well, look, he is the only candidate in the field right now, only major candidate, so he has the stage to himself. he hasn't necessarily maximized that position, but he sort of doesn't have to. he can sort of keep a low
6:26 am
profile until he has some competition. the new hampshire event is the one that i find the most interesting because that is not a trump event, that is a republican party event. so it will be very interesting to see how republicans react to him in that state. you know, a state where he has historically done extremely well, but where also, you know, you have an anti-trump republican governor and a lot of skeptics. so i think it will be very interesting to see what kind of reaction he gets at that event and then to see the south carolina event as well, how much support he is able to rally around him in another state that should be a place that he's strong, but where we're already seeing some signs of, you know, power players in the state not necessarily rushing to get on board. >> taking a look at what's happening or not happening at this moment in washington, molly, look, there is a lot of talk about the intel committee as we know, specifically as it involves adam schiff and eric swalwell. dems crying foul but the reality is mccarthy has a lot of power
6:27 am
and as speaker that power trumps whatever the tradition may be. he can name members unilaterally. is there any way that you see democrats winning this battle and being able to keep schiff and swalwell there? >> i would be very surprised. as you say, it is the speaker's prerogative and this is something that is important to significant elements of the republican caucus. this is a promise that mccarthy made to them a long time ago and he has been very clear that he intends to stand by that promise. but this is sort of indicative of the larger struggles he's going to have throughout the next couple of years of his speakership, right? he's not making a lot of friends on the other side of the aisle, maybe he doesn't need them. he's going to need friends on the far right side of his caucus as well and i think in the first place he's look to go shore up that support after the very chaotic process of gaining the
6:28 am
speakership but eventually he's going to need to at least have a working relationship with the democrats and so this doesn't help that. >> molly ball, always good to see you. appreciate it. thanks. >> thank you. all right. overseas now as russia spends tens of thousands of untrained troops to fight in its continuing invasion of ukraine. we will bring you an update from the front lines. that's next. >> russia forces are gaining ground. they are on the high ground behind me, they're advancing from the north and they're advancing from the south. is that glitter? this table is on its last leg. find just what you need at wayfair! you need this. you're kelly clarkson! a whole new look for whole lot less.

new this morning, germany says it will soon have a decision on whether to allowed poland to deliver german-made leopard tanks to ukraine ahead of what is expected to be an even more brutal spring of fighting. u.s. and western officials are urging ukraine to shift its battlefield tactics away from the grinding fight for the city of bakhmut, instead, focus on a potential offensive in the south. >> sources close to ukrainian president zelenskyy, though, tell cnn it isn't clear whether he is prepared to a bandel the might for bakhmut. let's go to cnn's ben weedel man on the ground in the embattled city where that fighting continues this morning. >> reporter: eli worth jones is a long way from his hometown of las vegas, nevada. a medic, he is delivering supplies to medics a few hundred
6:34 am
yards from russian lines in bakhmut. he does it because he can. >> i'm young, i'm trained for this. you know, this is what i do for a living and there's a lot of people that need it here and i'm happy to be here, staying with the people that are being stepped on. >> reporter: eli is with a group called front line medics and you can't get much more front line than this. fellow medic kurt ericson from norway explains how they work. >> we have a list of patients but we don't really know what's wrong with them so we don't have any idea before we see them and we do an assessment. >> reporter: our interview cut short by an incoming russian round. at a slightly safer distance from the fighting, they've parked their mobile clinic and treat who they can.
6:35 am
alexander says his feet are in pain. >> can you ask him which foot it is? >> both. >> both. okay. >> reporter: he lives in an unheated apartment and he's suffering from frostbite. they will take him to a hospital outside bakhmut. and he couldn't leave a moment sooner. the russian noose is tightening. slowly russian forces are gaining ground, they are on the high ground behind me, they're advancing from the north and they're advancing from the south. the worse is yet to come says british volunteer soldier daniel burke. >> going to try to do a pincer movement around bakhmut, i don't think they're going to try to circle it, per se, but try to go past it through the fields and cut us off a bit. >> reporter: yet residents stay on and volunteers of all stripes do what they can.
6:36 am
victoria is doing the rounds handing out food and water. >> are you a little nervous with this situation here? >> oh, look at me. do you see nervous? no. >> reporter: nerves of steel as the shelling goes on. ben wedeman, cnn, bakhmut. >> quite a story and quite a view of the battle here. here with me now former nato supreme allied commander general wesley clark. general clark, good to have you on this morning. >> thank you, jim. >> i want to ask you about the current debate over sending german-made leopard tanks to ukraine. ukraine wants them. i've spoken to u.s. officials who question whether this is the weapon system that ukraine needs now. in your view does ukraine need these tanks now or should they be focusing on other weapon systems? >> well, i think ukraine needs the tanks now but they need a lot of other things now, too, jim.
6:37 am
what they've been asking for desperately is long-range drones. this is a switchblade 600 drone, it's held up in the department of the army in some sort of foreign military sales pipeline. if they had this they could disrupt the ammunition and so forth behind them. they need the leopard tanks, they need self-propelled artillery, they probably need 300 to 500 main battle tanks. they are talking about maybe getting 100 leopards from these other -- they're in a really tough position, jim. >> yeah, that's the concern, right, is that the numbers -- germany in total has 200 leopard tanks in storage right now, poland is talking about spending 14. even if they do get them given the numbers the many hundreds of tanks that russia has and russia's very capable anti-tank weapon systems one u.s. military official said to me the u.s. concern is that ukraine will have tank grave yards if they try to fight russia in this style, much like we saw russia
6:38 am
have those tank grave yards early in the invasion. >> i wouldn't be too concerned about that because i think the ukrainians will keep these tanks in a mobile reserve initially and use them only as necessary or in a counteroffensive role, but i do say this, jim, the quantity of weapons that we have sent and the sponsors sending them is that every stage two steps behind. we say we're responsive to the battlefield, but we are not actually anticipating the battlefield. we've gotten -- on a strategic defensive. it's just a matter of time until russia mobilizes forces, masses and gets a breakthrough. it could be in bakhmut. it could be further south, but the ukrainians know this and they are fighting, struggling to maintain every inch of ukraine because they know that putin seeks a political victory and their military is not only working for military, it's not
6:39 am
an abstract military problem, this is about their morale, their people, their nationhood. these are tough questions, they deserve their help, are fighting for us and we should be giving them the quantities and type of systems they need and do it now. >> to your point about anticipating the battlefield, it's cnn's reporting that that is exactly what the west is recommending now, in other words, don't pour so many resources and frankly so many lives and bodies into this war of attrition in bakhmut, focus on potential offensive in the south where ukrainian tactics, ukrainian forces might have more success. >> sure. and i think for as long as i've talked to the ukrainians they've looked at this. zaporizhzhia and going after the land bridge is really important but if you can't hold the back door at bakhmut, in donetsk, then that offensive in the south
6:40 am
doesn't work. so they've got to try to hold the back door on this. now, whether they hold it tactically, whether they give up 10 kilometers in bakhmut or something, that's a tactical decision, but they can't simply pull out of this area to the east and they're locked in this battle with heavy artillery and waves of human assault. it's a really tough tactical problem and obviously as americans we don't like it but that's the war they're fighting. >> i don't think americans are quite aware of just the human cost of this, the many hundreds of casualties a day for those ukrainian forces in that fight in the east. general wesley clark, always good to have you on. >> thank you, jim. a, quote, horrific video that no one, much less a mother, wants to see. the family of a man who died after being beaten by police has now seen footage of that arrest. their message this morning is just ahead.

it was not just violent, it was savage. that is how an attorney for the family of tyre nichols explains the beating he received at the hands of memphis police during a traffic stop and arrest earlier this month. nichols died days later. the family met with city officials yesterday for what i can only imagine was a difficult moment to view video of his arrest. >> he was defenseless the entire time. he was a human piñata for those police officers.
6:46 am
it was an unadulterated, unabashed, nonstop beating of this young boy for three minutes. >> mother has to hear those words. the five officers involved have since been fired for their jobs. cnn's nick valencia joins us with all we're learning here. it's quite a case. i mean, that account is disturbing. what do we know. >> reporter: jim and erica, the video was so violent according to the family that the mother had trouble getting through the first minute of the video. family attorney ben crump said after he watched it reminded him of the violent beating of rodney king. they say during those three minutes that tyre nichols has beaten repeatedly by the police officers in memphis they say nichols asked, what did i do? now, police say on january 7 nichols was pulled over for reckless driving and it was after he was pulled over there was some sort of physical confrontation, they say he then fled on foot and there was a second physical confrontation. at the press conference the stepfather of nichols said it
6:47 am
was clear to him after watching the video that his son fled because he was scared for his life. >> our son ran because he was scared for his life. he did not run because he was trying to get rid of no drugs, no guns, no any of that. he ran because he was scared for his life and when you see the video you will see why he was scared for his life. >> reporter: nichols was transported from the scene in critical condition and died in the hospital three days later. ear earlier this morning the shelby county district attorney looking into this case was on and asked now that the family has seen the video why not release it to the public. he said it's not a matter of if but when this video gets released sometime in the next two weeks and doesn't want to compromise the investigation. they are still interviewing witnesses he says. he also hopes that this leads to a conversation about reform in the memphis police department. five officers all of whom are black were terminated as the result of their involvement in the arrest as well as two memphis fire department

lost on that tweet. for the first time since the covid 19 crash in 2020. a survey of business economists found that more expect their own companies to cut jobs in the coming months than to add them. >> cnn chief business correspondent christine romans joining us now. there have been so many mixed signals in terms of which way the economy is headed. because some has gone out of the window. but this survey is important because economists are expecting the hot jobs market to weaken. >> and this is another evidence of downgrading. these are business economists, whose job it is to inform their companies about the macro economic landscape. so now you have about 19% of business economists expect that
