justice department has launched a review into classified documents from the obama administration that were discovered in an office in washington tied to president biden. nbc's chief white house correspondent peter alexander jos us wh the details. peter, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the white house says it is cooperating with the justice department review of those classified documents from mr. biden's time as vice president. they were found two months ago in offices that president biden occasionally used in between his vice presidency and his return here to the white house. a source familiar with the matter tells me overnight that president biden only became aware the classified documents were there when he was informed by his lawyers immediately after they found them. as president biden meets in mexico for the north american leaders summit, the justice department is reviewing the discovery of what one of the president's attorneys calls a small number of documents with classified markings. found last november in mr. biden's former office at the penn biden center. the white house says the documents from mr. biden's time as vice president were found

when his personal lawyers were packing files in a locked closet at the university academic center in washington. before moving out of the space. in a statement the white house says its council's office notified the national archives november 2nd, the same day the documents were found and they were turned over the next day. officials have not said what kind of information was in the documents or detailed their level of classification. republicans quickly pounced on the revelation. >> i am wondering why the vice president of the united states had classified documents outside of the hands of the intelligence community. >> reporter: republicans are also drawing comparisons to former president trump who is under investigation for taking hundreds of classified documents when he left the white house and resisting repeated requests to return the materials even after being subpoenaed. the fbi ultimately recovered the materials after carrying out a court ordered search of the

former president's mar-a-lago he estate. mr. trump posting on his social media site when is the fbi going to raid the many homes of joe biden, perhaps the white house? these documents were definitely not declassified. last fall president biden criticized mr. trump when asked on "60 minutes" about this fbi photograph of the seized documents spread out by agents on the floor at mar-a-lago. >> how that could possibly happen, how anyone could be that irresponsible. >> reporter: president biden did not respond to a reporter's shouted question about the issue last night. but the white house says the circumstances are far different than those in the trump case, emphasizing that the recently discovered documents were not the subject of any request or review by the archives. and that once found, they were turned over immediately. attorney general merrick garland looking to avoid the appearance of a potential conflict of interest assigned a u.s. attorney in illinois appointed by former president trump to review how the documents ended up there at the penn biden

center. savannah? >> we'll keep an eye on that. and also the biden administration facing other potential investigations as house republicans now have the gavel. >> reporter: house republicans, they were already vowing to investigate the biden administration over a series of issues. they are now adding the discovery of these classified documents to the list. congressman james coburn, the kentucky republican, set to become the chair of the house oversight committee, he said he plans to send letters to the white house and to the national archives within days demanding answers. he said he thought it was unlikely president biden did anything wrong by taking documents but he was more concerned mr. trump may have been treated unfairly. savannah? >> thank you very much. in virginia overnight an emotional vigil in honor of the teacher wounded in last week's shooting at an elementary school. police saying the shooter was a student, just six years old, and this morning we are learning more about what happened. catie beck has the very latest. good morning.

exited the rear of the hand an into her upper chest. >> reporter: police say the shot was intentional but can't speak to what was going through his mind at the time. >> i believe the actions were at or towards the teacher you never know how someone's gog to rct with a firearm, students, and we are talking about a 6-year-old child i don't know what all was going through that child's mind. >> reporter: after being hit she quickly ushered her other students to safety. >> i believe she saved lives i don't know what else might have happened if the kids stayed in that room. >> reporter: police say she was the last to leave her classroom and when she woke up in the hospital - >> she asked me, first question, do you know how my students are? she was worried about them. >> reporter: investigators say the firearm came from the child's home legally purchased by his mother. the child is under a temporary detention order and is receiving treatment at a medical facility. legal experts say it's unlikely the child would face charges because of something called the

infancy defense that argues children that young are unable to form criminal intent. police say it will be up to the local prosecutors to determine if the child's parents will face any charges. teachers who work closely with abby zwerner say she was as selfless on friday as she is every day. you weren't surprised to hear her actions that day >> not at all. >> reporter: hoda, that teacher i was speaking with was actually teaching in a classroom across the hallway when this happened she heard the gunshot and quickly moved the students to safety when i asked how difficult it's going to be to return to that classroom, she said she can't wait to get there, her healing begins when she can see and hug her students again hoda? >> wise words there. thank you so much. all right. lots more to get to. good morning to craig. how are you? >> good morning. i was up late last night most lopsided national championship in recent memory. for the second straight year

kickoff. now he is back in this community, which has been lifting him up for more than a week. this morning, damar hamlin is back home in buffalo, still hospitalized but making major progress. after nearly a week in a cincinnati hospital following his on-field cardiac arrest, the buffalo bills safety waking up in the city of good neighbors tweeting, happy to be back. >> we continue to be ecstatic about his recovery. >> we wouldn't necessarily call this miraculous. is it remarkable? absolutely. >> reporter: hamlin's cincinnati doctors say he has been walking since friday, going through physical and occupational therapy, making enough progress to safely fly back to buffalo yesterday. the care team sending him home with his powerful image, writing congratulations, damar, you won. >> he walks normally. he is admittedly a little weak. i don't think that's of any real surprise after what he went through. >> reporter: doctors say when the bills scored on sunday's opening kickoff he was strong enough to really celebrate. >> this place is absolutely

he can return to football with his recovery still going day by day. hoda and savannah, back to you. >> jesse kirsch in buffalo, thank you. a little more on hamlin's recovery, what comes next. nbc's senior medical correspondent dr. john torres is here. are you surprised to see him make such a rapid recovery so far? >> this is great news that he is making such a rapid recovery. i am not surprised because of two factors. one is his fitness and health going into this incident. he was a very fit individual. he was a young adult and very healthy. that helps in your recovery process. on top of that, how quickly cpr was started because getting oxygen to the organs is extremely important and his cpr was started within seconds this is a testament to cpr, how important it is, especially in cardiac arrest but i am not surprised i think he will continue to recover as the days and weeks go on. >> i think we are wondering why this hpened. there have been theories about why this happened. do you have any clearer picture on what may have happened to him on that day? >> hoda, you are not the only one wondering.

the there doctors are wondering, as well. if you remember, a few days ago his doctors gave a press conference and said that commotio cordis, the one thing we have been looking at, diagnosis of exclusion meaning they rule everything else out and say more than likely that happened they can never actually prove that happened. they do a series of test cardiac mris, they will do stress tests once he gets to the point where he is healthy enough do that. it's usually on a treadmill where they accelerate the heart to a certain rate to make sure they can handle that, electrophysiology tests, looking at the electricity in the heart. they will say, okay, more than likely commotio cordis and then start looking at his recovery and getting back to play if he fully recovers and they find no other incident for this happening more than likely he can get back to play it is a matter of time before we find out >> i think everyone's wondering, like, is he going to get back on the field. he seems like he has everything working in his favor that's one of those things that time will tell

>> exactly and again if they find out the commotio cordis is the cause, they find nothing else that caused this that would make him more at risk for this, the american heart association says that commotio cordis itself is not a reason to keep him from playing. we'll know as the weeks go on and, hopefully, possibly next season he could be back on the field again. >> cool. that would be great. >> fingers crossed if that's what he wants. thank you. >> by the way, damar hamlin being damar hamlin, he decided he is going to help some of the first responders who helped save his life by selling these t-shirts the phrase on the t-shirts - >> and the heart. >> these will be on sale soon. >> how cool is this guy, by the way? giving money to charity, toys. >> he tweeted all the love i received, i feel it. now i am going to put it back into the world i believe him, too pretty cool. >> really cool. coming up next, like so many americans, tom costello has got lottery fever and he doesn't want to be well. $1.1 billion mega millions drawing.

feet below to the ocean. the damage is all across california. the northern, central and southern ends of the state. over night we had well over a dozen swift water rescues and at least one or two people lost their lives from downed power poles and cars washed away in flooding. we expect a bit of a break in the rain but also major concerns about mudslides. cities like montecito, there have been mass evacuations. everyone told to leave their homes under the threats of mudslides. that is a major sue over the next several days as officials try to make sure that area is firm and residents can return to the areas in the coming days and weeks but the emergency still far from over. hoda, back to you. >> miguel almaguer for us in santa cruz. thank you. investigators are working to

seeing an intruder wearing black clothing and a mask. but what the probable cause document does not do is offer a motive. among the startling details, police say kohberger's phone was near the students' house on at least 12 occasions in the months leading up to the murders. even though he lived and went to school ten miles away. sunday, august 21, police say the phone was in this area from 10:30 to 11:30 at night. the roommates were likely in the house. fall classes began the very next day. one forensic psychologist suggesting the possibility that the suspect was stalking. >> the majority of stalkers are either trying to repair a failed relationship or seeking a relationship that exists in fantasy. >> reporter: kohberger also applied for an internship with local police in pullman, washington, where he was pursuing a doctorate in criminology. in an essay for the job he said he had an interest in assisting rural law enforcement agencies with how to better collect and analyze technological data. it would be the analysis of

technological data that led police to the 28-year-old. investigators laying out minute-by-minute details of where he was, including in the hours after the murders. at 9:12 that morning his cellphone was in the area of the students' house before the 911 call was made, suggesting he returned to the scene of the crime. there are also apparent missteps like the knife sheath left behind with dna. >> anybody who is just starting out in crime, even if they have the best radical understanding of what they are doing, they will make mistakes. >> reporter: kohberger will be in county court this thursday at 8:00 a.m. for a preliminary status hearing. we could get new evidence introduced at that time and he could enter a plea, which his public defender in pennsylvania is expected to plead not guilty. savannah, back to you. >> stephanie gosk in moscow, thank you. after weeks of bombshell leaks, prince harry's book about fe in the royal family is officially out this morning. nbc's chief international correspondent keir simmons in london with the latest

san francisco, and that's pushing over toward the east bay. we've also had some high wind gusts and even hearing some rumbles of thunder here in the south bay as we get a couple of lightning strikes. but much of the rain and that threat of lightning is pushing off towards the east over the hills. and we're going to see this coming in waves over the next couple of hours. still that potential of more thunderstorms continuing throughout today as this storm system comes crashing in with all of this cold air and loss of energy. it's also been producing some very heavy rainfall, but in some spots it takes a break and that's what we are seeing right now in san francisco as we look at the golden gate bridge. here's what to expect -- more small hail. we've had a lot of reports of hail hitting the roof and affecting people as they're trying to head to work this morning. it will be tapering off for tonight, but we're looking at the possibility of about 1 to 3 inches of rainfall, and the next storm comes in late tomorrow morning. so that's going to bring in a new round of problems including flooding and power outages that

will be likely once again. and the mudslide potential continues as we are also going to see more road closures and chain controls up for the sierra with another 2 to 6 feet expected over the next few days. this is a live look at dublin. you can see there are some breaks, but the rain recently moved through there. we are going to see at times the rain tamering off for some, maybe some peeks of sunshine, and other areas are dealing with intense rainfall and even some thunderstorms and more small hail into late morning into the afternoon. for most of us, we are going to start to see a break for the afternoon, but still that chance for parts of the north bay, and then as we go into this evening another round of storms will be possible, so the weather will be changing quickly as we go throughout today. the next storm comes in. we are going to see it mainly targeting the north bay with the heaviest rainfall while all of us will see some rain, the impacts continue to add up because it's been so wet here lately. there may be a break as we head toward thursday.

but looking at more storms ahead going into the weekend, we have the storm today, another one tomorrow, and then a another stm arriving on saturday that will continue into early next week. so we are going to have more flooding possibilities as well as more power impacts as well as flooding. we're watching all of that and trying to keep you updated. but as we get more of these storms, these impacts will continue to accumulate across the bay area. mike, you're tracking downed trees and spinouts on the roadways. >> i'm not exactly sure what is down across highway 17. i believe it's tree branches. chp mentioned they may do a traffic break south there. we also see the slower drive on 85. so this is a remainder of the morning commute traveling north, 85, 87, 101 starting to seize up on the slowing down, but we still have this volume of traffic coming through the area. 17 onto 880.
