y'all. she will not be speaking but in attendance. an educator herself, to lend support to this community that is grappling with how this could have possibly happened. i think there is a reality sinking in with parents trying to explain this how they lost friends and teachers. one couple we spoke to yesterday traveled here from atlanta to pay respects for the head of the school, katherine kunz who was one of the first to try and confront the shooter during the incident, and they described hers a impeccable leader, make everyone feel like they were the most important person in the room. they said when they heard this news, they had no other option but to get on a plane and be here in nashville to tell the story of her, the wonderful anecdotes of how she changed her

very forth come in the first 24 hours. put out a lot of investigation, including body cam video. they are not doing any press releases today. they said no press conferences so to speak. i think at this point they are probably reviewing the manifesto that was left behind to try and determine a motive. >> katie beck in nashville for us, thank you. we're following breaking news from the vatican now. we have just learned pope francis is in the hospital with a respiratory infection. >> let's get to claudio in rome them story's been developing all day. what do we know now? >> reporter: in the past few hours we received a statement by the vatican if in which they say pope francis has been experiencing breathing difficulties for the past few days and so today the decision was made to take him to the hospital here in rome where popes traditionally go when they

have house problems, where he underwent some tests, and some of them, the statement continues, highlighted,s repower story infection. it will require a few days of proper hospital therapy. so the pope is expected to spend a few days at least in that hospital. the statement concludes with pope francis say he's touched by the many messages received and expresses gratitude for closeness and prayers, guys. >> i'm sure there will be many prayers. thank you. life is in limbo for survives of the deadly mississippi tornadoes, where concern is growing about both short-term and long-term aid. crew have been working to restore power and water. fema workers are currently on the ground to assist people who lost everything. now, another round of severe weather is swiftly moving towards the very same area. let's begin our coverage in hard

hit rolling port, mississippi. maggie vespa is there. you have been speaking with survives who don't have a lot of options. what are they telling you about the challenges they're facing? >> reporter: this is the challenge of getting utilities turned on. they basically want a roof over their heads. they're staying in shelters, motels while they're temporary, it's better than this. this would be impossible. this is a chiropractor's office and juice bar, and now obviously rubble. over to the left, i want to show you, this is what's left of the water tower, just a mangled, downturned, collapsed mess. the stories coming out of friday's deadly ef-4 tornado are stunning. case and point, alton lee, a man who tells us the tornado picked him up, through him down, and threw him down from 30 feet in the air. listen to his story. >> just spinning around out of control. felt so helpless. ain't nothing you could do. i seen a drier floating in the

air towards me, and i'm thinking, this is going to be the end. but the drier what saved my life. when it hit me, it knocked me out that cycle and i fell back to the ground. >> reporter: he was unconscious in a field after he was knocked out of that tornado. for hours. rescuer found him in the field around 3:00 a.m. saturday morning. miraculously he's going to be okay. as for people here, they're hoping the newly announce visit by president biden at some point in the near future is a sign that the federal disaster relief the president promised will come to fruition. >> elton lee has quite the survival story to tell. let's bring in our meteorologist. bill, there's a nasty system that's battering california now. what's happening there, and when it is moving east? >> two days we have been tracking this storm, and look like the last of the heavy rain went through los angeles, light rain heading for san diego. center soft storm coming onshore near san francisco. we have had reports of hail,

especially around berkeley earlier. that will be the case. nothing too dramatic with winds or flooding. we're going to take the storm southwards tonight into tomorrow, then try to take it and redevelop it into the plains late thursday into friday. not a lot is going to happen thursday, but as we go into friday, the storm taps the moisture from gulf of mexico, holds it up, and that's when the thunderstorms will explode. chance for a severe weather jout break starting friday afternoon. quad cities. the des moines area. headed to st. louis, memphis, little rock, possibly chicago. the enhanced risk area is in orange, and that has 47 million people in it. this is a large population centers. at least has the potential to see impact severe we think intercontinental we think multiple tornados are possible with this storm surgery along with damaging wind gusts. of course we're watching the rolling fork and central

mississippi. they're in the southern tail end of this. doesn't look like they're going to have the worst of it, but any severe weather or thunderstorms will hamper the cleanup effort. >> all right, bill, maggie, thank you both. we now know more about the migrants killed in a fire at a desanction center in mexico, some of whom trapped behind a padlocked door. at least 38 migrants died in that desanction center operated by the mexican government. many killed were from venezuela and el salvador. outrage is now building among advocates. they say the condition there is are inhumane. nbc news national correspondent gabe gutierrez is following the story, joins us now. what is the mexican government saying about that fire in. >> reporter: mexico's president lopez obrador is promising a full investigation, but he's facing mounting pressure about all these questions regarding that surveillance video that has

just been%ñ released, and migra advocates say thatat it shows inhumane conditions. you see the fire breaking out on the top left of your screen right there, and then you see uniformed officers apparently walking away, as behind that door, which appears to be locked, you can see men trying to get out and smoke quickly spreads across the room. just very tough to watch, kate. migrant advocates say that this is shows that these detention centers are overcrowded, and they wonder why more of an effort wasn't made to try and get those migrants out of that facility in time. again, 38 people dead, dozens injure, and my colleague from telemundo spoke with some of those loved ones of those migrants. take a listen to what they had to say. [ speaking non-english ]

and the exchange we heard in court indicates there might have been neurological problems prior. i want to you hear that exchange in court. >> does that mean that imaging both before and ski accident and after the ski accident? >> yes. >> and in your review of the imaging, duh see any evidence of traumatic brain injury after the accident? >> no, no. >> duh see any image evidence in the imaging before the accident that might be consistent with mr. sanderson's post accident symptoms? >> yes. >> reporter: now, we also heard evidence from some of these medical experts detailing sanderson's issues that she's experienced with anxiety and depression, but another neurological expert pointed out that based on the injury that they sustained with the ski incident, they would have only diagnosed him with a mild concussion with symptoms lasting a few weeks, which is not what sanderson has been alleging.

maryland ruled giving her brother one day's -- instead, lee took part by video conference. because of that, syed's murder conviction was reinstated tuesday. >> we are delighted that the court did the right thing. the process was flawed. >> reporter: last year, syed walked out of court after spending 23 years behind bars for the strangulation murder of h ark e min lee, his former high school girlfriend in 1999, a crime he maintained he did not commit. his commission was vacated when a judge ruled prosecutors failed the turn over evidence and found new evidence that could have impacted syed's case. >> if there is another hearing to you expect that to change the outcome? >> we don't know, because we don't know what the state has as evidence. we want to see the evidence. >> reporter: appellate court

found the short notice violated lee's rights, saying it is obligated to remedy those violation as long as we can do so without violatingg mr. syed' right to be free from double jeopardy. syed's attorney pointed out the reinstatement was no because of error in the motion to vacate, but because lee's family was not physically present, telling abc news in a statement, ensuring justice for hae min lee does not require injustice for adnan. just last month, syed talked about his conviction being possibly reinstated. >> we definitely understand that h ark e's family suffered so much. the just that we suffered, too. >> reporter: it does not appear syed will have to go back to prison. his attorney said they'll appeal to the maryland supreme court, and lee's attorney says another round of appeals could take until the end of the year of

>> nikola. >> it looks wrong, looks mispronounced. looks like it's the wrong pronunciation. >> reporter: when he was born, filling it the birth certificate was a problem. >> we were surprised, caught off guard where in california, where 4 in 10 people are hispanic they wouldn't let us put the name we had chosen on the certificate. >> reporter: she's behind it that would allow the use of a mark in birth and marriage licenses. >> this is another way this people with show how proud they are about their identities and how diverse we could be. >> reporter: noting that hyphenated names or those with atos trophies don't seem to have the same problem why is this not an issue for name like o'conner? >> i can't give you an answer

for that. this isn't a name just for latinos. others have accents on their names zwrrchlts calling nikolai and his mother to lobby for the bill. >> it advances some of our most treasured ideals. >> reporter: a similar push is under way iápennsylvania. the state dependence for transportation making the change on driver's licenses. >> for most of us, having the proper name spelling is just an automatic part of life, and i'm not sure how i would feel if every time i looked at my driver's license, my correct name was not on it. >> reporter: beyond legal documents, athletes and celebrities have called for similar changes. former l.a. dodgers announcer, jaime hadin testified in favor, calling the campaign "put the accent on it". requiring players' union forms

of contentious -- i want to play that. >> have you ever threatened, coerced, or intimidated a worker for supporting a union? >> i have had conversations that could have been interpreted in a different way i intended. that's up to the person who received the information. >> will you commit to testifying in any trial where you personally are accused of breaking federal labor law, something that you have been accused of doing nearly 100 times since 2021? >> mr. chairman, let me say under oath, these are allegations and starbucks has not broken the law. >> in other words, schultz there says these are mere accusations. there's no proof and weight to judge me before these allegations ultimately come out. now, schultz could get a warmer reception from some of the republicans on the committee, including rand paul who started

off the hearing quoting ayn rand. mitt romney --. quite a contentious hearing over a variety of questions and exchanges. >> thank you. coming up, how a new fda decision could save thousands of people from opioid overdoses. you're watching nbc news daily.

we're back with some news that could save thousands of lives. the food and drug administration announced this morning the approval of an over the counter version of the opioid reverse drug naloxone. you might know it as narcan. john torres has been tracking the story. >> reporter: it's a medicine that's not only -- it's becoming more and more needed as time goes on. i want to warn viewers, some of the upcoming footage might be a bit disturbing. . a life saving move from the fda. >> for the first time in history, the fda approved an over the counter version of narcan. >> reporter: the food and drug administration announcing an over the counter version of naloxone, commonly known as narcan, making it easier for anyone to buy it at a local pharmacy and have it on hand.h$■

>> where is he? where is he? where is he? >> reporter: if administered quickly, narcan can be the difference between life and death. >> how long has he been down? >> reporter: like what happened with this 1-year-old girl in alabama. she overdosed after eating one of her mother's pills, but after a police officer gave her narcan, she was conscious again. >> come on, baby. come here. >> reporter: she survived, but others without access to narcan might not. drug overdoses are the leading cause of accidental death in america. more than 80,000 of those deaths involved opioids. and overdoses among teens aged 14 to 18 now reaching a record high, surging 133% in just two years.

some schools now even installing narcan kits in hallways. >> we are going all hands on deck, because it's such a prominent drug throughout our community. >> reporter: at least 20 states are allowing schools no have that lock zone, training staff and students to use it. right now, the average cost of a two-dose box is around $130 some for americans who might want to have narcan on hand, one important question remains -- will they be able to afford this life saving medication? joe, you never know when you're going need this medication, but if you do have it on hand, it will be life saving, so thankfully it's going to be over the counter, but manufacturers say it won't be over the counter until later this summer. dr. john torres, thank you so much. in today's modern parenting, it is the time of year when hundreds of thousands of college hopefuls are checking their

college admission online portals. >> i remember that time, only it was an old school envelope. no portals back then. this can be an exciting time. it can also be stressful. they'll get at least one rejection letter and that can hurt. joining us now, donna petro. how can parents help their kids handle a let they are does deny admission? >> look, we've got to tell our kids to focus on what they can control. what is in my control versus what is out of my control? what's in my control is how i react to this, what my thoughts are, what my actions are, how i think about handling challenges. what is out of my control? the outcome of my efforts, the future, what others think of me. also, help them see what they've achieved and focus on growth mind set. you don't have to be stuck. you can have this growth mind set where you're working for billing and growing and learning

and building on resilience. >> i love that you say allow for the feelings, too, right? let them feel bad about it for a minute. i'm living this right now, donna, with my high school senior. good news and bad news. is there a way to frame the conversations to keep them positive? >> i think it's really important, like you said -- allow them to feel the feelings. do not diminish the feelings. do not compare for them, everybody else is getting reject. that's meaningless to them. it's about them. as also, think about that space, allowing that space for them, and focus on where they got accepted. get excited about where they got accepted and what that's going to look like now and how they're going to pivot. >> sometimes kids get focused on that one dream school and they do not want to apply anywhere else. what should you do? >> if that's what their choice is and they didn't get into the that school it can be, i'm going

the figure out how to get into that school if that's what's important. >> even a gap year is a possibility. take a year off. >> yeah, you can. look, only about 3% of high schoolers take that gap year according to ucla research. but just because it's that small number doesn't mean it's not right for your dean. >> donna, thank you so much. my older son did the gap year, and it was a good thing. more news ahead. >> you're watching "nbc news daiaily". my husbaband and i h have nevever been morore active..

not a total washout. not all the way clear. our temperatures will reach into the low 60s. monday is looking dry. then we're back in with wet weather on tuesday. the cool temperatures continue for san francisco as well with at times some gusty winds. we will track that with the latest right here. >> thank you. here is a story we are watching right now. a task force has kicked off a two-day meet agent the capital to discuss reparations. they will discuss how they should be made and who should be eligible. public is encouraged to attend. this is part of a wave of similar discussions throughout california. both berkeley schools and the board of supervisors are expected to pick up the topic. two creamcrimes were commit yesterday. now san francisco police are trying to figure out if they are connected. they happened on the block over three hours. the first case, burglars

targeted a barber shop. the owner says the thieves stole $25,000 worth of equipment. then a nearby gym was hit with gunfire from two passing cars. video you see here shows the moment a bullet shattered the window. police are trying to figure out if this was a targeted shooting and if it may be linked to the earlier burglary. they are calling both crimes an unusual coincidence.

welcome back. california lawmakers have rejected a deal intended to crack down on fentanyl dealers. it was modelled after the dui protocol. if the sale of fentanyl has led to someone's death, the dealer could have faced homicide charges. san francisco district attorney brooke jenkins was there to support that proposal. >> in the last three years, 75% of the 1,400 overdose deaths that occurred in san francisco

involve fentanyl. in this january alone, we had 78 overdose deaths. what is left out of the statistics is that a majority of the people that are dying of overdose are people of color. are black people. this is a problem of epidemic proportions. >> while it didn't pass this time, lawmakers did vote to reconsider the legislation at a future date. the bill did have bipartisan support. here is an unusual missing pet case playing out this morning in the east bay. this afternoon, i should say. police are sharing images to hopefully reunite a lost pig with her owner. she was found near dublin canyon road. she's mostly salt and pepper. weighs about 200 pounds. police are calling her the city's first missing pig case this year. they don't know the pig's actual name. until the owner comes around, they are going to nickname her hamrietta. that does it for "the fast
