president trump have been caught off guard by this target letter indicating that he will likely be indicted. >> when donald trump unleashed the violence against mike pence, against congress, he was interfering with their rights and privileges to do their job. >> long term, these charges are a real problem for donald trump. >> my aunt's home is pretty much gone as well. >> this is a popular crossing area for migrants because the water is very shallow. and despite the buoy being deployed, we've seen migrants cross the river. >> live from london, this is "cnn newsroom" with max foster and bianca nobilo. >> it is thursday, july 20, 9:00 a.m. in london, 4:00 a.m. in washington where the justice
1:02 am
department is investigating how donald trump and his allies tried to over turn the 2020 presidential election. later today, a grand jury in that investigation is expected to meet possibly to vote to br unprecedented third criminal indictment ainst trump. facing charges to three laws includmperg with a wiess. and trump is preparing to fight this in court. he's added a new criminal defense attorney to his legal team. kristen holmes has more. >> reporter: i spent the day on the phone talking to trump's lawyers and all told me that they were trying to figure out if there was any sort of evidence or witnesses that they didn't know about in this case particularly that would boost up jack smith's case. a lot has to do with the target letter and the potential
1:03 am
charges. i'm told that it was much more clear that jack smith had a much bigger case he was trying to prosecute against the former president than what dtrump's tem had believed. and they been watching this investigation carefully and there are a number of witnesses who have gone before the grand jury in the january 6 investigation whose lawyers were paid for by trump world. that has given them a unique amount of insight into this investigation. yet still taken by sir rice. so they are trying to figure out if there was evidence or witness that they didn't know about. and they tell me that this will be business as usual. if he is indicted, it would be his third in-timdictment and th will just continue to campaigning. the thing to remember is that he is a candidate for president once more and these legal issues have actually been bolstering his campaign. but i'm told by advisers that
1:04 am
they still don't know the long term effect of these kind of legal issues. obviously we're in unprecedented territory. kristen holmes, cnn, new jersey. donald trump has been dealt setbacks in two other court cases. the judge wednesday denied his bid to move the hush money case to federal court. the judge said in his ruling that the payments to stormy daniels were not related to the president's official duties. meanwhile trump's lawyers say they are appealing all of a judge's rulings against him in the sexual abuse and defamation case brought by e. jean carroll, including the $5 million judgment awarded to carroll and the judge's ruling kendenying tp a new trial. >> oh, my god, dude. that is crazy. pretty frightening scene in rocky mountain, north carolina.
1:05 am
this was an ef 3 tornado with winds estimated 150 miles per hour. at least 16 people were injured, two seriously. the storm flattened buildings across two counties including a pfizer pharmaceutical facility. authorities are warning residents about downed power lines and gas leaks. >> i don't want to see another one like it aggagain. it went from sunshinch black and the storm lasted less than a minute and you see what it has done. just thank the good lord nobody lost their life. >> flooding is a problem in kentucky where the governor has declared a state of emergency. the town of mayfield likely set a new record with almost a foot of rain in a 24 hour period. a tornado killed at least 80 people there in 2021. and the heatwave baking the southwestern u.s. has broken even more records.
1:06 am
the overnight low temperature in phoenix, arizona was 97 degrees farenheit, that is a low temperature. and chad myers has a look at what is in store. >> i know i've been saying the same thing over and over what seems like weeks. but let me show you some of the temperatures and how hot they have been in places for weeks. again, more excessive heat watches and warnings all across the south and southwest. by the end of the weekend, 170 more record highs will be broken and likely no record lows for sure. heat in dallas thursday, 105 this afternoon. look at what has happened in phoenix. 20 now consecutive days with temperatures at 110 or more. and that is not likely to change when you see thursday and friday at 118. now, i'm sure, and i know it is supposed to be hot in phoenix,
1:07 am
but only 107 is your average. you are 11 degrees above normal and not cooling down at night. that is another problem where you are still in the 90s when you wake up. you don't even get outside to do anything in the cool weather because there simply is no cool weather. vegas in the 114 to 116 range. already saw phoenix. look at palm springs running up at 120. and so even if we look ahead to the next week after this, we're still in this above normal to much above normal weather across the south and the southwest. even reaching all the way up into the southern provinces there of canada. look at vegas, again 115 on saturday. you shouldn't be anywhere near that. it will still be hot because monsoon hasn't kicked in yet. beer by thing for stor beer -- we're waiting for the storms to pop up and it cools off the afternoon. it can make dust storms and
1:08 am
cooler weather and do a lot of things, lightning as well. but you need the thunderstorm activity to get the temperatures down. humidity has to come up unfortunately to make that happen. but you will get some cooldown as soon as monsoon begins. it is already about a month late. and in the heeft dat of the day in the humidity, there will be the chance of more severe weather during the afternoon. heat and humidity, the clouds will bubble and even some of the storms could contain a tornado or two. not too likely the biggest threats will be high winds and large hail. but we have to keep you're eyes out especially in the heat of the day. the women's world cup has officially kicked off marking an historic milestone for international women's football. never before has the global competition reached this scale or this level of prize money. the opening match is between co-host new zealand and norway.
1:09 am
but lingering over the opening day was a tragic shooting in downtown auckland earlier why the day. two people were killed and six others wounded by a gunman. he was later found dead. the government quickly determined that the shooting was an isolated incident and unrelated to the world cup. angus watson is joining us from sidfully. -- sydney. the opening match is well under way. but tell us more about what happened and how much that has been overshadowing the buildup today. >> reporter: christina, two people lost their lives and several injured in this horrific incident early thursday morning in you auckland. a 24-year-old man known to police went to his place of work with a shotgun and began firing
1:10 am
killing two, injuring several, including one police officer. police were xlcommended for the bravery rushing into try to stop the shooter. the shooter was found dead in an elevator shaft with a bullet wound. so horrific situation there in new zealand, but one separate to the world cup which begins today. but several of the teams are stationed there in auckland. also team usa which was very quick to issue the players' condolens for the people who were killed saying that u.s. soccer extends its deepest condolences for the families of the victims who were killed in the shooting in downtown auckland. we're saddened by the inexcusable loss of life to gun violence and our thoughts are with the people in uk land. ve
1:11 am
of course you will remember the horrific mass shooting. every time there is such an event in new zealand, our thoughts go to those killings at two mosques. today's incident was not a terror attack and no national security implications are there. so the match was dailie deemed safe to go ahead. however a fan zone where people going to party and watch the game was canceled, that will not open as a mark of respect for the people who died. here in sydney, we're just moments away from the second game beginning. australian versus republic of ireland. let's hope the cloud over the tournament does not last too long. >> let's hope that the focus can stay on the football. we appreciate your reporting there. u.s. authorities are trying to piece together what might
1:12 am
have motivated an american soldier to cross into one of the world's most hostile countries. new details are emerging about how private travis king pulled it off. it seems like it came down to him claiming his passport was missing and then running really fast. kristie lu stout is live for us. new details slowly emerging as what might have prompted this mad dash across the tee mar indication line. >> reporter: yeah, u.s. officials are still scrambling to figure out whyindication lin. >> reporter: yeah, u.s. officials are still scrambling to figure out whymad dash acros indication line. >> reporter: yeah, u.s. officials are still scrambling to figure out whymar indication line. >> reporter: yeah, u.s. officials are still scrambling to figure out why frof travis k crossed over. and king was not in uniform when he crossed in to north korea. he was on a tour of the joint security area when he suddenly dashed across the border.
1:13 am
this photo was taken tuesday before king broke away from the tour group. and in the photo you can see travis king there in the bottom left, he is the one wearing the black t-shirt, black hat. the photo was taken by a fellow tourist sarah leslie who witnessed the incident. listen to this. >> someone ran close to me very fast and i thought what is going on. i didn't think anyone who was sane would want to go to north korea. so i assumed it was some kind of stunt to run to the north korean border fence and have someone film it or something like that. a couple sendcond after i saw h, the soldiers started running after him. >> reporter: and there were a number of south korean american soldiers on the south korean side but still king's motive not
1:14 am
yet known. back to you. >> still so many unanswered questions. kristie lu stout, thanks. in baghdad, a huge crowd stormed the swedish embassy and set it on fire. they are furious over the swedish government's decision to allow a protest outside the iraqi embassy in stockholm where reports say organizers plan to burn a koran. cnn cannot confirm that information. but according to the press, swedish authorities say that they only agreed to a public gathering and not whatever activities that may include. this comes just weeks after a man set fire to a koran outside the main mosque. the embassy staff are all safe and there is an investigation into the attack. now texas officials received new complaints about the alleged mistreatment of migrants seeking to cross the rio grand into the

police in texas have discovered 12 migrants who were being smuggled in to the u.s. in a semi trailer. deputies chased it after realizing it was stolen. and officers discovered ten men and two women inside. the sheriff's office say they are from mexico, honduras and guatemala and are in good condition. it is unclear if the driver will face any charges. texas is receiving more complaints about the alleged treatment of migrants on the rio grande according to three sources who spoke to cnn saying complaints included multiple videos. earlier the u.s. justice department received reports that state troopers were ordered to
1:20 am
push migrants back into the river and not give them drinking water. the department called had troubling and it is assessing the reports. governor abbott's office responded had no one was given orders that would threaten lives. rosa flores reports. >> reporter: jesse grew up riding the waters of the rio grande. >> the river that i love. >> reporter: and in 2015, he turned his passion into a business launching canoe and kayak. what was businesslike? >> it was beautiful. >> reporter: and he even organized races on the river. >> we're securing the border at the border. >> reporter: governor abbott has deployed wire, shipping containers and 1,000 feet of floating border barrier. the buoys are 4 feet in diameter and anchored to the bottom of
1:21 am
the waterway. >> a strategy that no state has ever before deployed to stop people from entering texas illegally. >> reporter: the state of texas did not exactly follow the law when it started installing the buoys. according to the u.s. state department, a series of treaties between the u.s. and mexico xwofrne governed the use of the water and texas not only didn't consult with the u.s. federal government before installing the buoys, it didn't obtain a permit. >> it used to be a beautiful pristine island. >> reporter: and he points to an island that he says texas also destroyed. here is what the island looked like 0 on google earth. and now the island is gone, vegetation is dead, road and wire taking its place. >> it was sad. >> reporter: he filed a lawsuit claiming the would buoys will p him from making a living.
1:22 am
and a top dip lomat say it violates the treaties. mexico is also concerned that the buoys may be on their territory. and this couple say they too have complained about texas for installing the wire on their land and refusing to remove it. >> they have taken control and we are not support i have it. >> reporter: but the most alarming part is what they say they witnessed, migrants needing help and texas national guard members just standing there. >> i asked aren't you all going to help and they just sat there and they said we can't. we can't get on to your property. they told us not to get on the property. they told us not to give them water. and i said fine and i just turned around and we just kept helping people out.
1:23 am
>> reporter: texas national guard denies the allegations. this is after texas dps released emails showing top brass acknowledging an increase in migrant injuries from the wire and blowing the whistle about a 19-year-old stuck on the water while having a miscarriage, a 4-year-old passed out die to exhaustion and about being ordered to push migrants into the river and deny them water, allegations the agency denies. maverick county sheriff says that he has never witnessed a trooper's mistreat migrants but he is woreis worried there coul more migrant deaths. >> i think that we'll have people drowning. i want to be the voice for the river because the river can't speak for itself. >> are you afraid of going against the state of texas? >> am i afraid? no. is my business suffering? yeah. is my heart suffering? yes. >> reporter: the u.s. doj says
1:24 am
it is aware of all the allegations and that it is working with dhs and other agencies, but it is unclear if legal action will be taken. as for jesse, take a look, you can see that the buoys are still on the river. jesse says he is waiting for his first court appearance. once the hearing is set, he says that he plans to ask the judge to force the state of texas to remove the buoys. russia is kconducting one o its most intense attacks since the war began. russia fired a barrage of missiles on southern port city he for the third straight night. ukraine's air defenses have been successful in destroying most of those missiles. russia is also attacking mykolaiv. russia struck the city center setting a building on fire. at least 19 people were wounded.
1:25 am
clare sebastian is joining me here to discuss. and this was another terrifying night in odesa, third night in a row. why are russian forces so persistently targeting this city? >> that is a good question because now that we've seen three nights of this, it is clear that they are sending a message. first night they say we're targeting a place that manufactures the maritime drones. so it seemed like that was revenge for the kerch bridge. but now ukraine is interpreting this as a way of really putting the final nail in the coffin of the grain deal which russia pulled out of this week. they have been putting out images showing destruction of the port where large part of it was actually put out of commission and it would take about a year to repair. 60,000 tons of grain destroyed. so significant destruction being reported by ukraine. and president putin said the
1:26 am
grain deal has lost all meaning. so they are not looking like they are anywhere close to reinstating the deal while the bombings are going on. that is why we think the south certainly is being targeted, but this is proving to be a major test for ukrainian air defenses. what is striking about the overnight attacks we saw thursday is that out of the 19 missiles that were launched, only five were shot down. and the mayor has put out a video of himself standing in a nursery showing destruction there. so some of the damage still coming to light. >> and so how many more nights are to come. yesterday we had comments from the head of mi 6 saying that prigozhin was floating around. and release of a video that purported to show the wagner boss in belarus.
1:27 am
i mean, what does that tell us? certainly that he would be alive, but what else does that indicate? >> we're hearing this morning to add to that is saying that wagner is starting this -- during the week not exactly when -- but to train bella russia troops. the training ground is right on the border with poland. so they say that these exercises will start. this tally is what we will heard from the man we believe to be prigozhin in that video saying this is the plan, they will be located in belarus for a while and make the belarusian army the second greatest in the world he says. it seems that the deal still stands. prigozhin now we believe seen there himself, but the wrinkle in this is that he is to an extent floating about. and arriving this belarus and
1:28 am
then leaving again. so it seems that he is free to come and go as he pleases. >> thank you. still to do the investigation into the man charged with the gilgo beach murders expands. why police are taking another look at cold cases just ahead. ah, these bills are crazy. she has no idea she's sitting on aa goldmine. wellll she doesn't know that if she owns a life insurance policy of $100,000 or more she can sell all or part of it to coventry for cash. even a term policy. even a term policy? even a term

1:33 am
returning home on foot. she says she was kidnapped after stopping on a busy highway to help a toddler on the road. police say there are no reports of a child missing or wandering by a highway. the local police chief say they are still looking for answers. >> when someone says something like this, we put every available resource, everybody comes together from state, local, federal. it is a lot of work. it is a little frustrating to think all of this has been done and we can't find anything out. >> authorities say despite the unsettling case, they don't believe that there is a threat to the public. the wife of the gilgo beach murder suspect has filed for divorce her attorney tells cnn. this comes as new information is coming to light about the serial killings in long island, new york. jean casarez has the latest. >> reporter: as the investigation into the gilgo beach serial killing suspect continues, more people coming

forward to talk about their interactions with rex heuermann. >> i had a really, really bad feeling. my gut was telling me i needed to get away from him. >> reporter: nicky brass telling "good morning america" heuermann solicited her online whenin 201 when she was working as a sex worker. >> he would speak in a hypothetical, but he had like this smile on his face, made me really uneasy. and like a glossed overlook in his eye. >> reporter: and authorities in south carolina searching property owned by heuermann for any evidence to link the 59-year-o architect to the murder of three young women in 2009 and 2010. sources tell cnn is chevy avalanche was seized from the property and is being combed for evidence. >> there were s.w.a.t. team, fbi, all kind of stuff. >> reporter: those living next
1:35 am
to the property were stunned. >> we have had joining property to a serial killer. so that is like i never put that on my bucket list. >> reporter: and over 2,000 miles away in las vegas, law enforcement officials tell cnn that they are looking at cold case homicides to see if there could be any links. according to property records obtained by cnn, heuermann and his wife purchased two time share condos in las vegas in 2003 and 2005. on long island where heuermann lived, crime scene investigators continue to collect and process potential evidence from inside his home and his nearby storage unit. also searching for possible connections to remains of eight other people found along that beach. >> does it tie into any other victims, any victims who were reported missing. >> reporter: heuermann remains

1:38 am
do you support the protests? >> i do. 100% i support the protests. it needs to continue until the president hears our cries. the cost of living is high. and the president should look at this situation and reduce the cost of living. >> reporter: a heavy security presence made sure that there were no major street demonstrations today, but they did score a win by managing to bring the capital of kenya almost to a standstill. the battles between police with water cannons and tear gas and young men throwing rocks has been the order of the day. but the president rouda remains defiant. >> we must protect this country and the police must be firm on the hooligans, on criminals, on people who want to destroy other
1:39 am
people's business. >> reporter: that police action earned condemnation from the human rights office last friday when it said it was concerned about widespread use of violence by officers. kenya's foreign minister says the statement is inaccurate and misleading. >> i'd like to know their names and others. they are just throwing names and figures out there. that is bad manners for an organization of such stature. it has been weeks since nigeria's new president announced an end to a long standing fuel subsidy that kept gas prices low for decades. now they have to make drastic changes to survive. stephanie busari is joining us live from lagos. and we're hearing fuel prices have reached a record high. so how much worse are things protected to get for nigerians?
1:40 am
>> reporter: christina, analysts are saying that nigerians should prepare for pain and more pain before things get better. they are projecting that things will get better. everybody agrees that fuel subsidy removal was the right thing to do. was the timing right, could it have been planned better? could cushions have been put in place to help the poorest. many poor people live in this country. and so people agree that it had to be done. it was costing the government $900 million a month. horrendously expensive. but now thignigerians have to b the brunt of the prices going up. now 78 pence per liter. which seems low to other parts of the word,ld, but it has tripd
1:41 am
pretty much overnight. so people are taking measures, some have stopped using their cars all together. some are walking. cycling and things like that. and some will unfortunately go without food because retail costs of petrol affect the cost of everything. from transports to logistics to price of food. you walk into shops here and people are -- there are signs everywhere saying that we regret that we have to put up our prices. so even middle class is being squeezed. but it is the poorest who will bear the brunt. and the government has announced that it will introduce palliative measures. so we wait to see what they will be. >> let's hope that there will be measures put in place. stephanie busari, thank you. still ahead, the sweltering in seville and roasting in rome,

this just in, at least nine people have been killed in a landslide following heavy rainfall in western india. four teams have been deployed to the area but the heavy rain and strong winds are hampering rescue efforts. about two dozen homes are buried in the mud and rock and people may still be trapped. the heat is on in southern europe with nine regions in france on orange alert. the world health organization says the weather is taking a harsh toll on the people least able to manage its consequences including the elderly, children and the homeless. the heat is putting pressure on health systems around the globe. planes from france and italy are joining the firefighting effort in greece and other crews.
1:46 am
66 new wildfires broke out in just 24 hours. let's go live now to rome and barbie nadeau. any sign that this prolonged spell of heat is beginning to subside, that things will get any easier? >> reporter: the temperatures are down from the record setting temperatures, but it is still very hot. one of the issues with that of course is not just how hot it gets on a certain day, it is how long it has been hot. and it is hot overnight. and as we've been saying the last few days, not everyone has air conditioning or access to air conditioning. what we're seeing is the city workers that are upset that they have to be out in the heat of the day. they are saying to the tourists and locals get inside, but yet garbage collectors, bus drivers, which not all are air conditioned, those people are starting to complain. so we have an emergency meeting by the labor ministry to figure out a protocol for those people
1:47 am
who have to work outside. so the problems generally pile up on top of each other. we're not expecting it to cool down anytime soon, but the record-breaking heat seems to be over during this particular heatwave. we have no idea though of course what is around the corner. >> and the firefighting continuing across the region. thanks, barbie. a startling new study has found that nearly 800,000 people in the u.s. die or become permanently disabled every year because of errors in their medical diagnosis. dr. sanjay gupta is here to tell us more on this. and how concerned we should be. >> they are talking about m misdiagnosis, can could mean got the wrong diagnosis or it could mean more of a missed diagnosis. meaning that they didn't get a diagnosis at all of what was really problematic for the patient. what they found were pretty big
1:48 am
number numbers as you mentioned. about 371,000 people die every year and people who had some sort of disability as a result of these missed or misdeeg knows cease. 424,000 people is what the study showed. i want to be clear that overall going to the hospital, going to the clinic, the average person is less than 0.1% chance of having some severe problem as a result of misdiagnosis, but there were certain areas where you had the biggest concerns. things like stroke could be missed leading to severe outcomes. sepsis, pneumonia, a blood clot in a vein that could lead to something like a pulmonary embolism for example. an lung cancer. those were the biggest concerns overall with this. why do these happen? there were several different reasons but i'll give you a couple examexamples.
1:49 am
when it comes to stroke, people know if you are having weakness or trouble speaking, those are indications. but what about dizziness and headache and fatigue. that could be some indication of a stroke. when it came to cardiac problems, you think maybe the classic left sided chest pain but it could be more generalized chest pain or weakness. and so saying this is not fitting a a classic pattern, could it be something else, that is what the authors of this study focused on. there is some advice which is that you should be as clear as you can when you are going to see your doctor, your nurse, about what has been going on. make sure that you are a good historian, that can really also offer up clues that could help make it more likely you'd get the right dying iagnosdiagnosis. and ask what could be causing my problem and then the followup,
1:50 am
what else could it be. that gets everyone thinking into other possibilities of what might be going on there. if there are test results, when will the test results come back. and what decision will then get made based on those test results. doesn't solve for these gigantic numbers, but it can certainly make a difference in terms of getting to the right diagnosis or not missing the diagnosis in the first place. still to come, coffee chain starbucks is partnering with one of the biggest musical acts in the world for a new line of merchandise. we'll have the details next. baby, only on game nights. you know you are retired right? am i? ya! save $1200 o on our most populr sleep number 360 smart bed. plus free homeme delivery when you add an adjustable base. shop now onlnly at sleep numbe.
