2:02 am
door, 38-year-old francisco oropeza to stop firing a rifle in his front yard because their baby was trying to sleep. the latest mass shooting happened in the town of cleveland, texas. the five victims were all from honduras and had recently arrived to the city of houston. police described a horrific crime scene. >> when they got here, they found four people deceased inside of the residence. and there was an 8-year-old that had been shot. everybody that was shot was shot from the neck up. almost execution style. and basically in the head. >> authorities are urging caution since oropeza is still at large. cnn's ryan young has more on the shooting. >> reporter: an all-out manhunt continues in texas, this city is about 45 miles outside of houston, texas. police and the fbi are looking
2:03 am
for francisco oropeza, he's the man that sheriffs deputies say neighbors asked to stop shooting his gun from the front porch because they have a young child, they wanted to go to sleep. according to the sheriffs deputies he then walked over and killing and shooting five people in the home. including an 8-year-old, execution style, at the head, neck and shoulders. they were tracking a device, but that device has been found. listen to the fbi about the search. >> we consider him armed and dangerous, and we're not going to stop until we actually arrest him and bring him into custody but he is out there and he is a threat to the community so i don't want anyone to think something different than that. he is a threat to the community. and we need the community's help to hopefully locate him soon and take him off the streets tonight. >> special agent james smith was telling anyone who would list than they believe this man could
2:04 am
still be armed and still be dangerous, obviously, as he knows he's on the run after shooting and killing these five people. two of the women found dead inside this home were found covering two smaller children who were not harmed in the shooting. but obviously, there were ten people in the home. you can imagine the emotional impact of the entire community. trying to figure out exactly what goes on. when you put the picture up on the screen, that should help sheriff's deputies and the fbi give more tips, more calls in hopes of catching this man. ryan young, cnn, atlanta, georgia. >> as you just heard the suspect is still at large. police believe he fled into a wooded area, cnn's analyst charles ramsey explains how authorities will approach him. >> they'll be using dogs,
2:05 am
helicopters with flares to look for body heat to determine whether or not he's in that particular area. so, they'll be using a lot of technology to try to pinpoint him but it's going to boil down to them actually combing through the woods. which is dangerous with all of the shots being head shots to the neck with an ar-15, i mean, you know, the damage inflicted from that type of weapon to your body is just absolutely incredible. and so his intent was to kill, there's no question. that shows a great deal of rage. there were ten people, to my understanding in that house, why he didn't kill all ten, i don't know. he probably could have. but he did kill five. thank god he didn't get the rest of them and two kids shielded by their mother or other women in the house are certainly very fortunate. but look at the trauma that everyone involved in that has to go through now. this is just absolutely incredible. but it's just one more example of the senseless violence taking
2:06 am
place in our country. and it makes no sense at all. and nothing's going to be done to really put a curve to it. we have another mass shooting in the u.s., according to the gun violence archives there have been at least 174 mass shootings in the u.s. so far this year. despite a truce struck by both sides, a third week of fighting has begun in sudan between the country's army and the paramilitary rapid defense force. witnesses tell cnn gunfire could be heard near the presidential palace in central khartoum on sunday. this comes with fighting around the capital and air strikes. more than 10,000 sudanese families have left for the north. locals have organized food and medical care for them. in the meantime, a convoy of american evacuees reached port sudan on saturday after an over-land journey to khartoum.
2:07 am
cnn's oren liebermann has more on the journey and what's next. >> reporter: this convoy for american citizens out of sudan comes with growing pressure on the administration and state department to do more. some of those american citizens in sudan who have spoken to cnn have described the feeling of frustration and anger as what they see as lack of action from the administration to get them out. it's compounded by the fact we've seen so many other countries go into sudan or into khartoum or near khartoum, to get out their citizens and some american citizens. it was last weekend that we saw the u.s. snend sent in u.s. mil helicopters to get out embassy staff. and some say it's simply too dangerous to go in and the situation isn't stable enough. now, we see the u.s. arranging its convoy. it's not run by u.s. military personnel. but it is contracted through the defense department with overhead surveillance from dod and run through the state department.
2:08 am
state won't say how many people are on this convoy. they do say over this convoy, other country's convoys and other aircraft, hundreds of u.s. citizens have evacuated the country. so they were taken from khartoum, to port sudan, hundreds of miles. there are u.s. navy ships in port sudan and those citizens were taken to jeddah in saudi arabia where they'll get assistance. the process played out over several days on thursday those american citizens in sudan who were looking to leave and had travel documents to be ready. on friday they got the heads-up have food ready and one travel bag, and that's when the convoy left to try to get south american citizens out. there are, of course, thousands of american citizens in sudan. it's unclear how many of them want to leave at this point. but the state department says if you are an american citizen in sudan looking to get out of the country get in touch, suggesting there may be more efforts like
2:09 am
this, oren liebermann from the pentagon. i want to bring in international correspondent david mckenzie joining from us johannesburg. david, while the fighting continues, foreign nationals and sudanese are trying to their best to get out? >> well, that's right, just this morning there has been an extended cease-fire. there's been multiple reports of fighting happening in khartoum. and the sudanese saying there are columns of rapid force support groups, that they've struck the columns impossible to independently verify that information. just this morning, you had south africans arrived here in johannesburg after a harrowing trip organized by the department of international relations to get out of the country. here's one south african, what he had to say. >> it's paramount to get things back to normal. we think about the people that are still left behind.
2:10 am
they've lost everything. really a dramatic situation for the sudanese people themselves. they've been looked after and brought out, but they haven't. >> reporter: many, many nations have helped the citizens go out. there are thousands of people exiting sudan, either through port sudan, through the egyptian border or directly from an air strip north of the capital out of the country. of course, those left in sudan, as that man mentioned, are facing extremely difficult scenario. one bright spot, to show how the communities have pulled together. around 100 miles north of khartoum in the city of shendi, we spoke to people there assisting thousands who have fled the capital to the north. put in tents, giving them food, they say, midedical assistance d some living with other families. it shows both the level of support and the lack of national ngos in the u.n. supporting
2:11 am
people in the country at this stage. here's one community organizer. >> translator: we are sheltering victims of the indiscriminate shelling and indiscriminate war in car akhartoum. residents have decidedly agreed to shelter groups from khartoum. those with connection to the city and those who have, all of the people of sudan. >> reporter: now, there are large parts of the country that haven't seen direct fighting also the rapid support forces not in control of any one city. we've also had reports in recent days of significant violence in the west of the country and people streaming over the border into chad. as this drags out, kim, you will see an even more desire humanitarian situation. and the question being ask, are people getting their citizens out, but what about aid flowing in. kim. >> yeah. so, all of this is happening,
2:12 am
all of this fighting while there's a supposed truce. any hope of a road map to peace here? >> reporter: i think there's no road map at this stage, though, many different nations and regional bodies have tried to pressure the two jourgenerals oe rapid support forces. a lot of pressures come from african nations including 18 and ethiopia and others. the east africa bloc has opposed and at least what the military leader of sudan said he would be interested in. but you're not really getting concrete steps, let alone for a peace deal, but even for stop of the fighting in any meaningful sense. and with the columns coming from the west from the rapid support forces to presumably bolster their fighting, forces that only
2:13 am
can be seen getting worse in the coming hours. kim. >> appreciate that update, david mckenzie in johannesburg, thanks. >> the world health organization warned of a huge biological rick after a laboratory that contained pathogen samples were seized by a paramilitary force tuesday. samples of measles, cholera and people at the site are most exposed. i asked an pathologist, how concerned we should be. >> these are diseases common in sudan in the region. so, i think that the real concern here is that, you know, we may see these soldiers that are taken over the laboratory, they may become inadvertently exposed to some of these pathogens. they may also become exposed to 00 either chemicals in the
2:14 am
laboratory there's also a lot of fashion and helium in certain parts of the labs. if firearms are going on, that could croat a potential explosion. i think the other thing is they're going to lose any banked samples that they have with cuts to electricity and people not handling the samples appropriately. i think that's a real concern. they're going to lose the samples that may be useful for research and short and long term, as well as the materials that are temperature sensitive. i think it's going to be really important to be able to resecure that laboratory as soon as possible, to be able to make sure that there are access to diagnostics, to be able to understand what's happening in the country, also to protect the samples. also, apparently, the blood supply is linked to this laboratory as well. so i think that's going to be critically important. this brings up to me the issue of biosecurity in the context of
2:15 am
a emergency and a conflict. and i think that we're going to have to really re-examine how we manage biosecurity. and if peacekeeping missions will be able to have bio containment associated with them. more than 35 million people are at risk for severe storms damaging winds, hail and tornadoes today. a tornado watch was just posted for much of the florida peninsula until 2:00 this afternoon. heavy rainfall and severe thunderstorms are possible up and down the east coast. florida and mid-atlantic states are in the crosshairs. if that sounds like a broken record, you're right, saturday was the third day in a row of severe storms in florida. survey of damage is under way after a tornado touched down in palm gardens, it flipped over

2:23 am
say. >> we do have a very small majority, only five seats, one of the smallest we've ever had. i cannot match someone in our conference that would want to go along with biden's reckless senate. we will hold a vote and pass it and send it to the senate. >> the key question is to convince aenough conserve serve tifrs to get on board many conservatives like congressman andy biggs tell us they're just not there yet. as for the white house, they're insisting they will reject this outright. going into next week, it's facing pressures from some democrats who think that negotiations with congress need to begin immediately. to break down what's actually in the 320-page bill it includes a series of cuts including a plan to block biden's student loan forgiveness program and new funding for the internal revenue service. the bottom line to focus on is that congress is running out of

2:32 am
i am not ready to say in detail when it will happen and how. but i will say yes, many things depend on this. but there are many nuances in the supply of certain weapons. >> reporter: apologies there, kim, it seems that we rolled the wrong quote. but you hear president zelenskyy speaking about the counteroffensive. that was the second point i was going to bring to you, ukraine on the two-front war here, civilians being attacked far from the front lines meanwhile, ukraine is preparing for the rush to reclaim ukrainian lands along that eastern front. we were earlier describing this as a spring offensive. but as we head into the summer months there are serious questions being asked as to when the counteroffensive would take place. there's months of preparations. nato has been pouring weapons in. lightning speed training process to get ukrainian troops trained
2:33 am
up on those niato weapons. nato saying 98%.defensive vehicles promised have made their way to ukraine. but it's not enough just yet. as you heard there from president zelenskyy, there are major challenges just as ukraine has been preparing for the counteroffensive, so has russia. we have satellite images to show you what that look like, particularly in the south where the counteroffensive is expected to begin. russia building up its offensive, building up anti-tank obstacles, mine fields, pouring in troops and creating trenches for the troops. regarding of ukraine's motivation which has been praised time and time again during this conflict. they're absolutely facing at least quantitatively, a much larger russian military, one that has air superiority. so there are huge obstacles where the counteroffensive begins. kim. >> an uphill battle for sure.

american officials are bracing for a surge in migration at the u.s./mexico border. it come as the u.s. gets ready to lift pandemic-era restrictions for entry. meanwhile, new york mayor eric adams wants the federal government to stop senting emergency relief money to cities whose leaders are bugsbussing migrants to his state. polo sandoval reports. >> reporter: officials are bracing for a post-title 52 world, that is restricting ability for migrants to cross into the united states as it's set to expire in mid-may. the american among city officials the average daily rate of asylum seekers here in new york about 200 is likely potentially begin to increase as we see many of the migrants finally crossing into the u.s. and with that, concerns of the
2:40 am
increasing price tag. over the last year, city officials saying that the migrant crisis here in new york city has already cost them at least $817 million in order to care for and house these migrants. the projections are that number could potentially reach $1.4 billion by the end of june. that is why as we've heard from last year, new york city mayor eric adams calling on his colleagues in the white house to do more to assist new york city in michigan the situation. he's calling for any potential executive action on behalf of president joe biden to expedite the application process for asylum seekers that time and time again have shared with us, they simply want to work loolly, to pay their way into housing, rather than relying on the strained shelter system here in the new york city. but the mayor calling for more expedited ways.
2:41 am
and cnn has reached out for further comment as we continue to monitor the potential increase in asylum-seeker arrivals here in new york city. polo sandoval, cnn, new york. >> for more on this, i'm joined by two front line workers, executive of homeless and executive director of power activists. thank you both for joining us, we're following the story last year as the buses basically dumped all of these migrants from states like texas, into cities like new york, where you are. and then we've moved into issues. i'll start with you, give us an update what happened to all of the migrants. did most of them stay there in new york? >> so, a lot of the migrants have come in, that are in new york and in area parts of the country, basically, what we do, when the migrants come in, is we triage them, we support
2:42 am
them with critical services. and the most important thing is reuniting them with family. so if the family is here, we're connecting with families here or connecting with cross-organizations in other states to try to get the migrantings to head out to other states where family members and friends are to reconnect with family members there. >> just staying with you, being undocumented in a strange country, if you don't have family family, especially, especially for unaccompanied minors, many coming to new york, what kind of challenges are they facing now? >> so, we're facing a lot of challenges in unaccompanied minors and of course, jamie can attest to that and speak on that. what we're doing is we're making sure we don't leave them stranded. everyone who comes into new york city, we welcome them with love and dignity. we try to let them know that they are welcome here in new york, they are welcome here in this front. frankly, no one really wants to
2:43 am
leave their country. there are things that are going on that force them to leave. we want to make sure that they feel that they are welcome here and they have opportunity to seek asylum, and that is our duty, as new yorkers. that is our duty as people that really care. and we want to spread that love and dignity. and understanding to the rest of the americans and to the rest of the world, to let them know that we shouldn't be treating them as if they're yooutcasts, but rath, with open arms. and listening to their stories. all of them come with stories. we should be a listening air and lending hand. >> love is great, but, of course, you know, to support them, you need money. and, jamie, i'll turn to you. how much support have you got from the city? are you getting what you need? >> good morning. no, i mean, we're not -- we don't take government funding so support is not something that we're looking for. but i do think for groups like power's group that are on the
2:44 am
front lines when the buses are coming in, or the planes are coming in, right, and the migrants first entering new york city, support is very much needed. but i think in addition to call for supports for the grassroots groups on the ground doing this work, i think what we all need is coordination. i think for new york city, at least, what we're seeing, right, it's a narrated perpetuated governments doing the work and the grassroots are getting in the way. where that's just not true. in addition to funding we need the government work with nonprofit organizations and grassroots activists on the ground that are welcoming the migrants into the city to make sure that once they're here, that services are comprehensive and that they're targeting very unique needs. >> yeah. i mean in less than two weeks, those covid restrictions will lift, as we were just reporting
2:45 am
that which may allow a new influx of migrants. you can imagine there may be more buses heading your way. jamie, how ready are you to deal with the huge number of people coming in? >> so, we're not ready, right? i just want to be real about that. and i think similar to what i was saying earlier i think that's because, although, you know, new york city is definitely facing an unprecedented a number of new new yorkers coming into the city. and that's definitely not lost on us. the fact that they've done nothing regarding coordination, specifically for youth and unaccompanied minors, has made this somewhat of a crisis. right. we have no policies in place in new york city, specifically, addressing the needs of unaccompanied migrants and youth. there's no coordination with the runaway and homeless youth shelter system which is separate from the adult system which gets talked about more often. so, with the influx that we've
2:46 am
already seen to date, right, the system, all of their calls for support and coordination have gone unanswered. so the reality that the numbers are only going to be increasing i think is causing a bit of anxiety around what is going to happen, given the fact that the support hasn't been there, even thus far. >> yeah. you know, complicating all of this, as we were just talking about, i mean, a lot of these folks are, unfortunately, prisoners of narrative power. they must be aware of the political stakes involved by their bussing by republican governors to the blue cities. how do they feel being essentially pawns in the political theater? >> yeah. it's quite sad, not only actions like that, but also words that have been said. i mean, they have a big community that spreads the word. and the worst thing is for you to feel unwelcome in a place
2:47 am
where you feel alone. and you feel targeted. and you feel blamed for situations going on. frankly, they helped us shine a light on a system that's been isn't shambles. i tell them that. one thing they don't realize there's been a consistent flow ofia the airports. we pick up migrants from the airports so they're not stranded on the streets of the new york. we try to get them to shelter safely. we try to get them all the critical resources that they need. and we want to make sure that they feel welcome. a lot of times when they hear things on the television, or they hear people talking about it inside the shelter system or on the street, they get bad looks. they get blamed. and they feel alone. and the mental health part of it is very important. we've been trying to pair them with mental health they'rie the.
2:48 am
people say they've got it good. they're in hotels, they get three meals. but what they don't realize, these people are here to sit in a room where they don't have cards to get around the city. a lot of them are getting tickets because they're hopping a train to try to get to appointments to find work. they don't know how to navigate the system. the system wasn't built for them. we do our best to try to them them survive. >> there's so much need. i want to thank you both for the work you're doing, thank you both. appreciate it. >> thank you. meanwhile haitian migrants arriving in boston have been sleeping overnight at one of the city's major hospitals. 55 people, mostly from haiti, spent wednesday night in the lobby of the boston medical center. a hospital spokesperson said the dramatic increase in migrants arriving recently has stretch
