least another week. michael? >> all right, rob. thank you for having that all covered for us. robin? we head overseas to an attack at a busy train station in paris. six people were stabbed. let's go to our tom soufi burridge who is there on the scene for us. good morning, tom. >> reporter: yeah, good morning, robin. the attack happened just inside there early this morning. a man wielding some kind of bladed weapon started randomly stabbing people right in the heart of europe's busiest train station. armed police immediately on the scene. they shot the man three times. he was neutralized according to france's interior minister. the attack over within a minute. in that short period of time six people were stabbed including a police officer. thankfully, no one was killed. the police officer according to officials, was saved by his body armor. only one victim seriously injured. the attacker himself was taken to the hospital. he's in a life-threatening condition. his motive still unclear. france's anti-terror prosecutor not ruling out this was a terror attack. there hasn't been one in the

city for two years. george? >> okay, tom, thanks very much. to washington and president biden's response to questions about classified documents found in an office space he used as a private citizen. he said he was surprised when his lawyers discovered them and will cooperate with a review of the matter. cecilia vega has the latest. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: george, good morning to you. this is a political headache for this white house. the doj is investigating and now both democrats and republicans say they want to know what's inside these papers. >> president, did you mishandle classified documents? >> reporter: overnight, the president landing back at the white house after that trip to mexico as questions persist about those classified documents found in his former private office. the president saying he was as surprised as anyone by the discovery. >> i was briefed about this discovery and surprised to learn that there were any government records that were taken there to that office. >> reporter: sources tell abc news the president's lawyers made the discovery in november, just days before the midterm

elections. locating boxes that contained approximately ten classified documents, some marked top secret. according to "the new york times," the papers include briefing materials on foreign countries from when biden was vice president. the white house says the lawyers turned the documents over to the national archives, which then reached out to the justice department. the president insisting he has no idea what's in the papers. >> i don't know what's in the documents and we're cooperating fully. >> reporter: sources tell abc news that review is well under way with attorney general merrick garland tapping u.s. attorney john lausch, an appointee of former president trump, to lead the inquiry and the now republican-led house oversight committee also launching an investigation of its own. >> he said it was very irresponsible for president trump to take classified documents to his personal residence and have them in an unsecured location, and it appears he did the same thing. >> reporter: the special counsel investigation into why former president trump knowingly took hundreds of classified documents to mar-a-lago is still under

way, but there are major differences. trump and his aides repeatedly resisted government efforts, including a subpoena, to retrieve the documents. the fbi ultimately searching mar-a-lago to get the documents back. president biden says his team immediately turned over the documents as soon as they were found and is fully cooperating with the investigation. >> people know i take classified documents, classified information seriously. >> reporter: now it's really important to point out here it is not unusual for classified documents to be removed from mistakenly removed from government facilities but here this administration self-reported this discovery. experts say that is the most important difference. >> yeah, not an obstruction case at all. cecelia, thanks very much. michael? george, now to the latest on the war in ukraine. russia is making some headway in an offensive in the eastern part of the country as ukrainian troops head to the u.s. to train on the patriot missile system. matt gutman is on the ground in ukraine for us this morning. good morning, matt. >> reporter: hey, good morning, michael. these are the most significant

russian gains in months and while it's unclear how strategically important they are, what is unmistakable are the amount of resources both the russians and ukrainians are throwing into this battle. the ferocity of the fighting and the destruction of these towns. this morning, russia nearing a breakthrough. putin's troops making new gains in eastern ukraine after months of defeats. russia claiming it controls the town of soledar, just miles from another strategic city. fighting there in the street. tanks firing point-blank. troops firing blindly. the town a smoldering ruin. field hospitals inundated. some of the wounded treated on the floor. president zelenskyy saying -- [ speaking in non-english ] -- there is almost no life left. this is what madness looks like. russia also shelling civilian areas in kherson where we visited this darkened children's hospital. >> you get used to hearing the

booms all the time? [ speaking in non-english ] >> reporter: he tells us, it's hard to get used to. if a bomb hits next to you your whole world will completely change. that shelling near constant. as we were talking just now we heard a boom and ground missiles landing. overnight that hospital hit yet again. only 20 patients remain there. that, as the u.s. announces that for the first time since the war broke out, ukrainian troops will be sent to be trained on u.s. soil. up to 100 soldiers set to begin training next week in fort sill oklahoma on the patriot air defense missile system. the pentagon is saying it'll be a few months before those ukrainian trainees and those patriot anti-missile batteries are here in ukraine and operational. they say they're handling the shipment with utmost secrecy concerned that the russians might try to attack it. george? >> matt, thanks very much. now to new clues in the disappearance of the massachusetts mother of three missing since new year's. her husband is now behind bars accused of misleading police and we're learning disturbing new details about what investigators have found.

trevor ault has the details. >> reporter: this morning potential bombshell evidence reportedly found in the investigation for the disappearance of massachusetts mother ana walshe. abc affiliate wcvb reports investigators discovered a hacksaw and a bloody rug while searching this trash transfer station about 40 miles from the walshes' home. >> the canines were in our yard. they looked in the car. >> reporter: the 39-year-old mother of three was last seen in the early hours of new year's day, scheduled to take a flight for work that she never made. >> there's no way ana would abandon her children or her job. immediately i'm like something is not right. >> reporter: she was reported missing by her employer and her husband brian walshe who right now is in jail charged with misleading the investigation to which he's pleaded not guilty but prosecutors said they found a bloody knife in the walshes' basement. overnight, surveillance video newly obtained shows brian walshe at a juice bar on january 2nd, the day after his wife went

missing, the same day he reportedly spent $450 at a home depot on cleaning supplies and he's required to report his whereabouts while awaiting sentencing for art fraud. >> he was very reluctant to admit guilt and, you know, there was a lot of evidence. >> reporter: court records show ana wrote a letter to the judge in that case praising her husband, saying he brought the family joy and comfort despite having a difficult childhood. and we, of course, can't forget about the couple's three children, three boys between the ages of 2 and 6. they've been taken into custody of the department of children and families. robin? >> we certainly are thinking of them. trevor, thank you. we turn now to the latest on the nurses' strike entering day three. 7,000 walking off the job and andrew dymburt joins us from mount sinai hospital with more on how the medical centers are reacting. good morning, andrew.

>> reporter: good morning, robin. it is one of the largest nurses strikes in decades. now entering its third day. thousands of nurses walking off the job and onto the picket line talking about 7,000 nurses from two hospitals here in new york city. those two hospitals mount sinai main in manhattan and montefiore in the bronx. even though we're talking about two hospitals they account for nearly 16% of all hospital beds in all of new york city. these nurses say they've had to strike because of chronic understaffing leaving them caring for too many patients. in the meantime, hospitals are diverting ambulances and postponing elective surgery due to the strike. other health facilities in new york city recently accepted a new contract at least tentatively, but nurses in these two hospitals as we mentioned are striking because of these staffing issues. negotiations have been ongoing between the hospitals and the new york state nurses association, both sides are said to be closing in on an agreement but as of this morning, still no deal. michael? >> we sure hope they can work it out soon, andrew. thank you so much. now to a nightmare for a

train load of amtrak passengers stuck inside for nearly 30 hours after their train came to a dead stop hundreds of miles from their destination. gio benitez is back with more and a lot of travel news today, gio. >> yeah, it is a busy day, michael. that train just arrived in florida moments ago after a shocking 37-hour journey. some passengers even calling police saying they were being held hostage. >> it was very upsetting. they weren't really telling us what was going on. >> reporter: overnight, drama on the tracks. hundreds of passengers stuck on a train for over 36 hours frustrated, hungry and exhausted. >> every single person on this train is tired of their excuses. >> reporter: the amtrak auto train, where passengers bring their cars on board, traveling monday night from lorton, virginia, a d.c. suburb, to sanford, florida, near orlando, but getting delayed when another train nearby, a freight train, derailed. >> we all had places that we needed to be. >> reporter: pets not allowed to

go outside. at least one passenger saying they felt trapped. the conductor even urging passengers to stop calling the police. >> for those of you calling the police, we are not holding you hostage. >> reporter: amtrak saying in a statement the train was detoured off its normal route in order to continue operating south. customers have been provided meals, snack packs and beverages. and at one point the train did run out of food but it stopped in georgia overnight. pizza was delivered to the train, and despite this mess, passengers say they believe that the crew was doing the best they can all night long. >> they got to their destination. >> they got there. >> first planes, now trains, automobiles are next. >> gio will stick around all morning. coming up new details in the idaho murder case as we hear from madison mogen's father in his first network interview. first to ginger in florida. >> reporter: yes, george. our friend, becky worley lives

in oakland, california, and she said she has never seen the hail covering her deck. so she captured the severe storms that came with the latest atmospheric river and covered many other people's decks there as well. but, remember, we've got flood watches and other alerts that extend all the way into the rockies and there is a silver lining here, folsom lake, that reservoir, has now said they are at average capacity. so that means that they are filling up and this is before the snow melt. there is major snow yet to come. we've already seen the biggest start to the sierra snow in 40 years. the biggest was '82/'83, and we're well on track with another three to four feet. to your local weather now in 30 seconds.

his arrest. mola lenghi joins us with details. good morning, mola. >> reporter: well, good morning, george. those new details are shedding light on how investigators say they were able to link kohberger, the 28-year-old ph.d. student directly to the crime scene and the murder weapon. ths morning as the suspect accused of murdering four university of idaho students prepares to head back to court, new details emerging about bryan kohberger's actions before his arrest. abc news learning from a law enforcement source that federal investigators observed him in pennsylvania around 4:00 a.m. as he discarded garbage in his neighbor's trash bin just days before his arrest. trash ending up being key in the case. police linking kohberger to the murders by collecting his father's dna from trash outside the family home and matching that to dna they say they discovered on the button snap of a knife sheath that was on the bed next to the body of victim madison mogen. >> if i had one or two words to describe maddie, it would be just an angel and that she

was -- she just made me proud. >> reporter: ben mogen speaking about his daughter madison to abc news and describing the moment law enforcement told him they'd made an arrest in the case. >> he said, ben, this is the day that we've been waiting for. >> reporter: ben also describing his emotions while reading the evidence law enforcement say they had gathered against kohberger. >> i just -- i broke down and i just -- i just cried. i could only take so much of that and i just -- i cried. i still haven't read the rest of it. >> reporter: the police affidavit claiming investigators believe the four college students were killed between 4:00 a.m. and 4:25 a.m. they say one of the surviving roommates was away at the time of the murders and told police she witnessed the intruder, seeing a masked man coming toward her before he walked out through a sliding glass door. the roommate then locking her door. police say later that morning, the two surviving roommates called friends to the house

because they thought one of the victims had simply passed out and wasn't waking up. the 911 call finally coming around noon. officials say the two surviving roommates are not suspects. overnight kaylee goncalves' sister, olivia saying kaylee and madison did everything right that night. >> they went out together. they called for a ride. they went to a known establishment. they did everything you would want your daughter or your sister to do in that situation. you're supposed to grow up together. that's your god given best friend, and so we're left with not only missing them and exactly who they were, but wondering who they were going to become. >> reporter: on the university of idaho campus classes began this week with heightened security. kohberger who was extradited back to idaho last week is scheduled to be in court.

george? >> thank you, mona. dan abrams, that evidence from the trash bin so damning. >> because they were able to link that back to the crime scene, that's why it's so damning. they have this knife sheath that's at the crime scene where they find dna that matches the family of bryan kohberger. that's why it's so damning. this does raise another question which is supposedly this criminology student who knows the way things work. it shows you that -- if he is actually the guy, boy, was he bad at this. i mean, he made mistake after mistake after mistake and in this case the authorities actually watching him. so not only do they end up with the dna evidence, but they have an additional piece in that, wait a sec, why is he trying to bring it over to his neighbor's garbage? >> seems like they have a strong case against him. could he try to strike a plea deal and if not, as a defense attorney, how do you approach it? >> so first let's talk about a possible plea deal. we talked about this the other day. the only thing prosecutors would consider accepting would be a guilty plea maybe to take the death penalty off the table. that's the only kind of plea

deal i could see possibly happening here. but if this case goes to trial, expect the defense to attack the buckets of evidence separately, right? they'll attack the dna evidence separately from the cell phone evidence. cell phone evidence separately from the evidence of the car. what prosecutors will try to do is bring it altogether and tell one story, saying, watch the car, follow the cell phone. now match it with the dna. bring it together. defense attorneys will try to pick it apart piece by piece. >> you talked about the prosecutors because there's still no known motive and there doesn't appear to be a connection between the suspect and the victims. do prosecutors need to make a connection? do they need to establish a motive? >> they don't. they don't. that remains one of the most bizarre things about the case, right, which is why did he do this? why?

and they don't have to answer that question in court to potentially get a conviction, but the world still wants to know. >> the families want to know. >> the families want to know. everyone in that community wants to know why he would have done this and this certainly leads people to speculate was it because he was a criminology student trying to see if he could somehow beat the system? we don't know. but that is something that they're continuing to investigate. >> okay, dan abrams, thank you very much. much more on the story coming up friday, "20/20: horror in idaho, the student murders" at 9:00, 8:00 central. michael? coming up next, angela bassett's inspiring moment and more from the golden globes.

accepted a tentative new contract for nurses said to include 19% pay raises over three years but nurses at the two hospitals we mentioned are still holding out over those staffing issues. some on the picket line say they've been so overworked and overwhelmed one telling us that he's seeing ten patients at a time which is double what he normally sees. another saying she's been working 14-hour shifts. now, negotiations have been ongoing between these hospitals and the new york state nurses association. both sides are said to be closing in on an agreement but as of this morning still no deal. guys. >> hoping they'll find a deal soon because nurses, they work so incredibly hard. >> they sure do. coming up here on "gma morning menu," gwen stefani taking criticism. facing new accusations of cultural appropriation. also this morning, why the time you eat may be important when it comes to losing weight. dr. ashton is here with more. and two abc speedsters, not michael and george, linsey davis and will reeve. they check out running shoes as they try before you buy a new pair.

♪ harajuku girl ♪ ♪ to my rescue ♪ >> reporter: telling "allure" after she saw harajuku as adu adult, my god, i'm i didn't know people are going to criticize me for being a fan of something beautiful and sharing that, then i just think that doesn't feel right. i think it was a beautiful time of creative, a time of the ping-pong match between harajuku culture and american culture. it should be okay to be inspired by other cultures because if we're not allowed, then that's dividing people, right? the pop star has been criticized in the past for appearing to appropriate african american and latino culture in addition to japanese culture. some say there is a difference between appropriation to make money and appreciation. >> i think the big difference between appreciation and appropriation is the benefits.

who gets them? who is acknowledged? >> the writer of that article says she doesn't believe stefani was trying to be malicious or hurtful but says she left the interview feeling unsettled and says that words don't have to be hostile in their intent to potentially cause harm. the writer also says stefani's rep reached out to her the day after the interview indicating that stefani's comments were misunderstood but when asked for an on the record comment or clarification, they declined. abc news, we want to note, has reached out to stefani but has not received a response. stefani as you can imagine has made a lot of money as an artist, the author of the article noting that she has donated some of the profits and made charitable donations to charities including one in japan. michael? >> all right, stephanie, thank you. we turn to a "gma" health alert about eating habits and why the time you eat may be important when it comes to losing weight, a headline we saw in "the washington post" and dr.

jennifer ashton is here for a reality check. people want to pay attention. does when you eat really, really matter and does this mean that breakfasts may not be the most important meal of the day. >> for us, breakfast is like 4:00 in the morning. i'll tell you something, michael, in the world of nutrition and weight management it's really now about the who, what, where, when, why and how of eating and when is really at the top of that list so let's look at what some of the literature shows in the world of nutritional science. there is one study in particular that showed when you eat relative to your internal body clock, your circadian rhythms may impact your weight. another found late night eating was linked to higher body mass index and difficulties losing weight and then there's a third study and many to this population that talked about night shift work being associated with a slightly

higher risk of obesity. i put in plenty of time working middle of the night and this is something that affects a lot of people, but there is a lot of focus now on not just what we're eating but when we're eating it. >> it's not one size fits all. but to stay fit and healthy obviously goes beyond what time you eat, it's what you eat too. >> yeah. i mean, it's what, it's how much, but, you know, i think that people can't hear this enough. when you talk about what we should be eating -- and i want to be clear, i'm not talking about the occasional splurge but you want to eat a diet mostly lean proteins, plenty of whole grains, fruits and vegetables. absolutely minimizing processed food, things that come out of a bag or from a factory, things with a lot of added sugar and alcohol in moderation. it's really, really important. this doesn't mean all or none but most of the time that's what we want to be eating. >> dry january, right? >> dry january as i like to call it. [ laughter ] >> you have a degree in nutrition, doc. what advice do you want to give

people who may want to try this approach? >> first of all, i applaud that. we want to do those experiments and find what works for you. it might be different than what works for me. i would encourage people to do that. the other thing that i recommend is kind of, you know, pick when you want to modify your time in terms of eating. change one variable at a time. don't change a lot of things because then you don't know what's working or what's not working. keep track of this in some way with a journal and, again, don't be afraid to try new things, even people who are just a temple of fitness and health like yourself -- >> far from a temple of health and fitness. i appreciate that -- i don't know what to call that, doc. i do know i did learn from robin, if you eat something bad eat early in the morning so you have all day to work it off. >> i agree with that. >> thank you so much. robin? >> another thing, damp january, not dry january. all right now. time to try before you buy. consumer correspondent becky

worley has been checking out fitness gear. this morning she is on the move literally to put running shoes through their paces. how are you doing there, becky? looking good. >> reporter: good morning, robin. yeah, i'm already working off my breakfast. i'm here at barry's in burlingame, california, and whether you're on a treadmill or out running on the streets, all of that pounding can take a toll on your knees, your back. so if a little bit more cushioning sounds good, take a look at what's new in sky high running sneakers. ♪ when it comes to running shoes, height is hot and flat is not. we're talking about the trend toward big foam cushion shoes. >> like pogo sticks. really soft and bouncy. >> reporter: do they make a significant difference as you pound the pavement? we teamed up with runner's world and their runner in chief, jeff. >> we test hundreds of shoes. >> reporter: we chose three popular brands with thick soles asking two of our favorite runners to try them out.

linsey davis. >> i love that, that new sneaker mel. >> reporter: and will reeve. >> we're going to do a little shoe review. >> reporter: first the hoka bond ix. >> i'm partial to the cushioning soft and bouncy feel. >> squishy is a word that came to mind. definitely would wear them for longer runs. >> reporter: then the new balance fresh foam >> not too hard, not too soft. just right. >> it's not too wobbly. >> reporter: and one that's gotten really popular. >> pleasantly surprised. super firm. >> feel very bouncy not like a pogo stick. >> reporter: to try to see what's going on inside these sneakers, we hit the runner's world shoe lab where they test impact, height and weight.

the shoe height for all three is around 1 1/2 inches. the hoka is the lightest. then the on and new balance heavier. >> while it looks like it's maybe the biggest shoe it's pretty lightweight. they look really, really fat and tall, right? but look how deep you sit into that shoe. it's almost like the bucket seats in a sports car. >> reporter: what's new in some of these shoes since they first debuted beyond extra cushion? some brands are adding carbon fiber plates designed to add stability and spring. the hoka was the only one to have it. >> it's making them stiff and snappy which delivers a little extra energy when running and makes it feel faster. >> reporter: which shoe did our runners choose that met their style? while they thought all three performed well and were solid choices, will chose the ons. >> i feel fast. >> reporter: linsey liked the hoka for bounce but over all chose the new balance. >> i felt like it was an old shoe comfort but a new sneaker. >> it may take some getting used

to especially if they're bouncy. it's finding that thing that works with your system. i don't think there's any truly bad shoe and i don't think there's any truly great shoe for everybody. you have to find the one that works for you. >> reporter: how awesome are will and linsey? they are serious runners. i'm more of a walker with some arthritis in my knees and i have to say all three sets of shoes were so cushiony and supportive. they really reduce some of that knee pain for me. but i did have one that i chose that i'll probably wear the most and that's the new balance because they were a little less squishy. so if i'm like here at barry's and doing weight lifting or just going around town. those are the shoes i ended up choosing, robin, but they're all so comfy. >> they all look so comfy. now, is there any limit to how high the heel can be? >> reporter: well, you know, it's interesting. they do go as high as two inches and for recreational runners it's really just a matter of

choice and preference. but the world athletics organization has a cap at 1.5 inches. so if you're a really serious runner, you might want to just check the rules and regs. but for me, there's no danger that i will be disqualified from any races because of the height of my shoes because there's no danger i will be entering any races soon. maybe i'll try jogging just a little more, though. >> are you going to continue your workout this morning or are you heading home? >> reporter: so far i burned 54 calories. i think i can make 100 before -- you know, early. >> as always, becky, thank you. and you can find these running shoes, scan the qr code on your screen, head over to goodmorningamerica.com as well. let's go back to ginger. shh. she's there in florida. >> reporter: "gma" gives back is about to go big time. i'm incredibly surprised that this big group stayed quiet enough because we've got an extraordinary man that we'll introduce you to. he's just around the corner.

that's why we'll be quiet. but, i wanted to share with you that really nice shot after everything that's been happening in the bay area. san francisco airport with that rainbow. taking over, you know, under that rainbow or over it there are more storms to come so we'll drew: i'm meteorologist drew tuma with your accurate forecast, he leveled two moderate storm today on the exclusive abc 7 storm impact scale. heaviest rain and strongest winds coming between 11 a clock a.m. and 5:00 p.m. today so we have wind advisories in effect and flood watches as well. overnight, we dry, we keep the cloud cover, breeze, and low 50's. your accurate seven-day forecast, a break for a lot of us in the rain but more storms headed our way before the weekend.
