ballroom. police are trying to find a motive. but before any of these vitims have been laid to rest there have been three more shootings he tirned himself into authorities last night. in another mass shooting still here in california, its third in three days. seven other injured at a gas station. in iowa two students died and another person was injured in a shooting in a des moines charter school that seeks to provide opportunity to disadvantaged youth. the gun violence archive points out there have been more mass shootings than days this year.

39 mass shootings. we begin with the shootings in half-moon bay, california, where seven people were killed monday. jacob ward is live. what's the latest there? >> reporter: the scene behind me was the first of two scenes that this gunman visited yesterday afternoon killing four people and leaving one in critical condition and driving about a mile away from here to a second site where three more people were shot to death. at this hour, it is unclear the connection of that shooter to these people, although there has been a suggestion that he may have been a coworker and knew them in some way. but just as you are searching in monterey park, the motive here also unclear. what we do know is the shooter after visiting that second site and killing those three people seems to have driven himself to

a sheriffs substation here in the county and basically sat in his car until deputies grabbed him. we do not know the motive. armed with the handgun, he killed seven people. then as you mentioned, just 45 minutes north of here in oakland, eight people shot in a has shooting there. california definitely reeling here at this hour. >> jacob ward, i thank you. turning back now to what happened here in monterey park. i spoke with an eyewitness. sam says he saw the shooter. he was in there and knew the sounds he was hearing were gunshots. >> the firework you heard it, but i was the navy.

and i heard the guns. >> did you see the person? >> yeah. and then for a few minutes, got in the front entry holding that the machine gun. >> he called it a machine gun. it was a small semiautomatic, but he saw it very clearly. joining us now is correspondent erin mclaughlin. good morning. what more are we learning about the victims of of the shooting? >> reporter: good morning, jose. we're learning about the victims, but we're also hearing more of those stories from the survivors. lester holt spoke to a survivor named sally. she was is inside the ballroom behind me the moment the

72-year-old suspect opened fire. her dance partner shield her from the the bullets possibly saving her life. take a listen to what she had to say. >> when did you realize that your partner had been hit? >> i had blood on my hands. i was so scared. >> he was trying to cover you. >> he tried to cover us. >> reporter: we're also learning more about the 11 lives lost during the attack. their names, authorities have named three of them so far. releasing an emotional statement on twitter that reads in part, it's still sinking in what

happened to maymay. she spent so many years going to the dance studio on weekends. it's what she loved to do. but unfairly, saturday was her lance dance. we're starting the lieu mar new year broken, as is this entire community. >> erin mclaghlin, thank you. joining me now is the the mayor of monterey park. thank you very much for being with us this morning. describe the mood of the folks here. i have spent all day yesterday speaking to folks around here. everybody is feeling this so personally. >> absolutely. monterey park, we are a close knit community. many people lived here for generations. we're just in shock and disbelief that this occurred. our heart goes out to the families, addition to the three mentioned, they have identiied

a fourth person. we are here to support them, the family of the victims. >> have you been able to talk to new of the families of the victims? it's just inconceivable. saturday night, this whole area was filled with people celebrating. then the dance hall was packed stfs just a celebration that for decades now, folks in this community have united behind. have you talked to think of the folks that have lost someone? >> i have not had the opportunity to speak to the family of the victims, although the city has established a crisis resource center. we have been using that to identify the victims. a place to gather for next of kin and also to give moral and emotional support. >> the folks that have lost someone or you're talking about the emotional support, is there something that the folks that

were injured on this, do we know their condition? something we could do to help. >> there is a gofundme page that's been created by the community to support the victims and their families. also the community as a whole, this is going to require us to just start a long road of warning and recovery. and tonight we will be having a community vigil. >> this community is about 65% asian. the 30% latino. what do you want all of us to know about this community? >> we had a unique place in the united states. we are a diverse community. we have a large asian population. we have a large latino population. we have people who hail from all over the world from across the united states. we are known for our great diverse. chinese food, you'll find it

here in monterey park. we have been named as the third best city to live in america. and this is a safe community. we will get through this crisis. we're resilient and we'll get through this. >> tell me about the importance of this place in our community. >> dance halls have a very specific place not just in monterey park but many imgrant communities because for seniors, it's a place to learn to dance. what has been during the pandemic because people were able to gather, they were socially isolated. this represents an important place. we want to make sure we support the dance hall and all dance halls to make sure they survive. >> this is your last day as mayor. i want to know about your american treatment and your american journey. >> this is my last day as may your. i'm still on city council, but monterey park is a special place for me. i grew up in los angeles.

my parents did so much of our personal business here in monterey park. and monterey park represented us that's the american dream. and it's the vision that many people who live here, we want people to know that monterey park does embody the american dream. >> it does embody that. to see people in one generation come from another place that in one gent represent the greatest democracy on earth, it's an tra ordinary achievement here that we can have here. people make this an obvious place to tul fill your dreams. we're getting a look at the

struggle between the monterey park suspect and the man police say saved lives, lots of lives by disarming the suspect. take a look at this surveillance video obtained by nbc news. this is the second dance studio that the gunman went to after he kames here. the gunman went to this other dance hall where a 26-year-old, who was working the front desk, can be seen wrestling with this suspect before getting the gun away from him. take a look at that. he was a prolonged struggle and you can see that the gunman want ed that gun back and was punching him and pushing him and doing everything he could to get it. what an extraordinary hero. he spoke to lester holt about what went through his mind in these terrifying moments. >> there was a moment i actually

froze up because i had to believe that i was going to die. maybe three steps andld immediately rush him towards his gun. so i lunged at him and grabbed it with both my hands holding on for dear life. >> did it seem surprising? >> yes, definitely. he tried to pull away and aim towards me when i grabbed it. >> what an incredible thing. joining us now is the coanchor of pbs news hour. just looking at this gentleman, who changed the course of that evening, 11 people lost their lives here. who knows how many could have

lost their lives. had he not individually taken a stand. to prevent further death and loss here. that's worth underscoring. >> i had the privilege of seeing you yesterday. you spend your day talking and listening and sharing. what is it that you took away from this community? >> this is an extraordinary community. there's so many things that tie these communities together once they are touched by this gun violence. you hear the same thing over and over again. the shock and disbelief. i never thought it would happen here. the grief, the long tale of trauma, the many witnesses who saw what happened in that dance hall. i spoke to one woman who said her children when they heard about the shooting worried about them being in danger themselves.

there are impacts and ripples from these events that stay with the community long after all of us leave. >> today the 24th, i think back to the 24th of may. the massacre in uvalde, texas. 21 people, 19 kids taken away. it seems as though it's so -- it repeats itself so much. as we said in the beginning of the broadcast, the victims here were weren't even laid to rest and there were ore people being killed in this state i'm wondering how do we look at that? 39 mass shootings in the united states in 2023. >> we have grown somewhat numb to these remarkable and incredible and the worst

possible numbers that we see regularly. to the other shootings at the top of the hour, i want to point out as well, we're in california. and they are not um mun to this kind of violence that's a uniquely american problem. it doesn't matter how strict your state gun laws are, if you can buy a semiautothematic weapon, what good does that do to protect your citizens? >> thank you so much. it's good seeing you. i appreciate you being with us. we'll have more on this story up next when senator alex padilla of california join us. what he says needs to be done to protect us from gun violence. thank you for being with us. plus details surrounding the death of a black man after a violent confrontation with police. his family reveal whag they saw on the body cams.

>> he was defenseless the entire time. he was a human pinata for those police officers. r those police officers. ...will remain radioactive for years to come. well, thank goodness. it's time for the "good news of the week." and, boy, do we need it.

19 past the hour. 2023 is only 24 days old. but it has already been a violent year here in the u.s. it bears repeating there have

been 39 mass shootings in the u.s. since the beginning of this month. that's according to the gun violence archive. that includes three mass shootings in california in the past 72 hours that have left 19 people dead. 17 others injured. with us now to talk more about this is california senator alex padilla, who sits on the senate judiciary committee. thank you for being with us this morning. i know that you spent much of your day yesterday here in monterey park talking to people about the shooting. what did they have to tell you? >> first of all, thank you for having me back, jose, and for your emphasis. we can't shine too much light on events like this because we cannot let this be normal in the united states of america. so we can't say enough, our hearts go ouz to the vick imit

is pz by these acts of violence. spending time yesterday at the victim resource center with local officials and observing, you had the mayor on a few minutes ago and talked about the respect for the families of the victims giving them their space, the respecting the process of them being notified if they are the next of kin. the tremendous amount of of resources available, whether it's what to do next with the coroner's office or planning of services or the important emotional and mental health support that is available by local governments, by nonprofits, by the community. it's what is necessary in the immediate aftermath of a traumatic event like this. but the communities and the families need our help and support for a long time. >> we have spoken about this on

and off the air. how can things like this thot become normal when they happen so often. and i'm just wondering, i keep thinking about the 11 people who lost their lives here. i think about the people, the kids and the two teachers that lost their lives the 24th of may in uvalde, texas. i keep thinking those are people that have treatments, hopes, aspirations that if carried themselves out with dignity and grace throughout their entire lives. then they come to a place to celebrate and they are just shot and killed. how is it that we can stop this from being normal. >> there's ab incredibly a lot that needs to happen. is it broader education, embracing of diversity. ask yes, including smarter gun

control laws throughout the united states of america. we have talked about how the state of california has some of the most strict gun control laws in the country, but the big vulnerability there is if shb can either import weapons or large magazines from other states or buy parts online and create an assault weapon or any type of weapon that is unlawful in the state of california. maybe better screening. we did make some progress last year in congress in strengthening the background checks required for gun purchasers under the age of 21. but clearly more needs to be done for those that are older than 21. that's just a purchasing of a gun. maybe we had a look at the best prctices around the country for who qualifies for a concealed weapons permit. when we come to these inincidents, we find incidents

where the weapon was obtained unlawfully or in some instances it was obtained lawfully. eechb since a little different. there has to be the political will to do more, to do better because the country deserves better. >> yesterday here at the city hall, i met darlene flores and her son. they are lifelong residents of this area. and they set up ten candles. i'm sure they came out and put another one since the news of another person losing their lives. i'm thinking we may run out of candles. if this becomes the pattern. >> candles belong on birthday cakes, not at the memorials for people who are victim to these

preventable often times, but truly senseless acts of violence. our hearts continue to go out to the community. half-moon bay and monterey park. the other part of the trauma here says these events come as sort of compiled trauma on top of what we want to do the last couple years. you take the asian american community who has seen a rise in hate crimes you see the community, the farm workers that were impacted by this a as they are trying to weather the recent storms in california. they have impacted agriculture on top of the droughts. there's people that are wondering what's next or how can we move forward. but we will move trd. we're a resilient people. californians are proud. i've just been so grateful to see the level of collaboration

and coordination from federal officials, state officials, local officials and most importantly community leaders and families coming together to get through this. >> i am always grateful for your time. thank you for being with us this morning. >> thank you, jose. right now, a senate committee is taking ticketmaster to task after the taylor swift debacle. will anything change? plus the congressman joins us fresh from husband awe announcement thank you for being with us. e announcement thank you for being with us. dry skin is sensitive skin, too. and it's natural. treat it that way with aveeno® daily moisture. formulated with nourishing, prebiotic oat. it's clinically proven to moisturize dry skin for 24 hours. aveeno® my a1c stayed here, it needed to be here. ray's a1c is down with rybelsus®. for 24 hours.

30 past the hour on capitol hill. the senate judiciary is holding a hearing on the lack of competition on the ticketing industry. it was prompted by the debacle over ticket sales for taylor swift's upcoming tour, in which long wait lines and technical issues caused a lot of fans to miss out on the tickets. the frustration was massive. the president of ticketmaster's parent company is among those facing questions from lawmakers

today. with us to talk about this and more is jake sherman, founder of punchbowl news. so jake, what do lawmakers hope will come out of today's hearing? >> reporter: the main issue here with congressional hearings of this nature is setting the stage for a public conversation, many don't understand the strangle hold that live nation has on the industry they don't understand this is one company that owns the primary ticket vender in the united states. although people who tried to get taylor swift ticks, many trends of ours experienced that. but it's not up to congress to declare a monmonopoly. it's up to the department of justice, the biden

administration, any administration that is in office to take that kind of action. >> it was really a mess. >> the dynamic pricing thing bs there's a lot of things that i can tell you that really frustrated a the lot of people. 23z. >> the fight over the debt limit. it's starting to heat up. now that lawmakers are back at work. >> republicans are talking about dra coin yan cuts not six months from now, it's much closer.

>> chuck schumer is the proi marry messenger when it comes to the debt ceiling. he's issuing a statement a day talking about cuts that republicans are going to have to put in place to offset in the hike of the debt ceiling. that doesn't come due until june or july. we are a good deal away. but schumer is in this instance trying to create a public conversation about the debt limit. republicans didn't want to reform entitlements. and he's trying to force republicans to talk early about this instead of talk about it in may, june or july when this would be an issue that's at forefront. there is incentive for republicans to get to the

negotiating table with president biden. he cig nailed he's trying to meet with kevin mccarthy. we expect that date to come clear in the next couple weeks. >> jake sherman, thank you so much. appreciate it. with us to continue our conversation is congressman who just announced he's running for the u.s. senate seat so it's good to see you. i'm just wondering what are so the of the urgent matters that you feel are not being addressed? >> where you are right now. we have gun violence that's running rampant through this country. americans don't feel safe going out in public or taking their kids to school. this is not the way americans should be living. this is thot the way most of us grew up in the united states. it's crazy we're dooming a generation no matter where they go. that's a significant problem. we still need to talk about immigration reforms and that's

desperately needed for quite awhile. and lastly, something to talk about in my kickoff announcement, we need to fight this despair that the best days of america is behind us. it's not. but we definitely need to inspire people, we teed noo to do things to make sure people have the opportunity. and right now, you see a lot of cynical politicians doing everything despite that. >> so let's talk about point by point on the orb of guns. when you were growing up and we were growing up, it wasn't like this. there were a lot of guns back then. there's certainly more now. what has changed and what is it that you think legislators could do to tackle it? >> there were a lot of guns back then, but the gun laws were stricter. i think we have to be clear about that. it was very difficult for you to buy a gun, possess a gun openly. a lot of weapons were more

expensive. it's very easy right now for any person to buy an a-15. you can change the laws to make it more difficult for people that shouldn't be owning guns to not with be able to get these guns. that doesn't cover all the gun violence out there. it would cover a the lot of the problems we have right now. >> congressman, just thinking about immigration reform, you're right. there hasn't been any comprehensive immigration reform since 1986 when reagan was president. but in order for there to be some kind of comprehensive

immigration reform, it has to take bipartisan work and agreement. how do you achieve that when this country and our politicians are just completely opposed to each other and seems like there can be no proposal or work that people can do across the aisle? >> the people in the united states are actually more bipartisan congress is. they are more supportive than congress is. what happens and it's always some weird two step where the democrats are in charge of the house and the republicans are in charge of the senate, we can only pass out of the house and it gets killed in the senate or vicar is is a. democrats have controlled all three decision making bodies when it came to immigration reform. we have three bills that came out of the house. because of people like senator

sinema who insist ongoing to 60 votes, we weren't able to pass reform. we're putting this standard that's going to be impossible to hit. we're never going to get 60 votes when it comes to immigration reform or a significant bill at least because there's always going to be at least 40 republicans that are going to stand against a good comprehensive bill. so leaders like sinema manks t get something done. get the process to come here and to actually take the people out of the shadows and put them in the workforce. >> tiesm times are changing. i'm wondering if that reform bill would have a shot today in 2023. i don't think it would. but congressman, this is a very

important conversation that we're having. i thank you for the time and thank you for being with us. >> thank you. up next, what police are now saying about what may have led to an iowa school shooting that left two students dead. you're watching jose diaz-balart eye symptoms... keep... coming... back... inflammation in the eye might be to blame. feel the ache and burn! one man learns the truth... over-the-counter eye drops typically work by lubricating your eyes. they may provide temporary relief... but probably won't touch me! mwahaha! tell me there's another way... there's hope for lasting relief with xiidra! xiidra works differently targeting inflammation that can cause dry eye disease. xiidra, nooo! xiidra treats the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. don't use if allergic to xiidra. common side effects include eye irritation, discomfort or blurred vision when applied, and unusual taste sensation. why wait? ask your doctor about a 90-day prescription and pay as little as $0. xiidra. uh-oh. not today, dry eye.

♪ ♪hey♪ ♪ ♪are you ready for me♪ ♪are you ready♪ ♪are you ready♪ "the wall street journal" reports the biden administration is leaning towards sending tanks to ukraine, according to u.s. officials. it would be part of a bigger agreement, as germany would send some tanks. meanwhile this morning, multiple senior ukrainian officials were removed. joining us now, nbc's richard engel. what is the latest out of

germany this morning? >> reporter: a lot of moving pieces. there are basically two stories you just laid out. one is about the tanks. looks like ukraine is about to get more tanks. "the wall street journal" report, if it's true and nbc news has not yet confirmed it, that very shortly the biden administration perhaps over the next several days will announce american tanks are heading to ukraine. the reason this relates to germany is, there was a row a few days ago, and germany said it would not send tanks to ukraine unless the united states also sent tanks, and the united states was putting pressure on germany, and it sounded like flimsy excuses, saying they probably wouldn't work, and the battlefield in ukraine -- even though ukraine is a flat country, more or less designed

for tank warfare, a lot of tanks were designed to fight in ukraine going back to world war ii. it has always been tank terrain. now what is happening in germany is german officials are starting to make progress on this issue. there are two layers to the german issue. there's the poles, they want to send their german-made tanks to ukraine, and the germans themselves might send some of their own tanks to ukraine. all this means over the next several months, perhaps the next few months, more tanks will be heading towards ukraine, and potentially united states tanks and german takes coming from poland. the last 24 hours, we have seen the ukrainian government announce its biggest cleaning house since the war began with ten officials being forced to

resign. they announced their resignation but under the shadow of corruption allegations. one is an adviser to president zelenskyy. they include four deputy ministers and five regional governors. this gives confidence to the ukrainian people who complained that there's a level of corruption that needs to be addressed. it also gives confidence to the international donors, because these two issues, the tanks and the corruption are intermittly intertwines. government officials are saying why are we sending these to ukraine if they are not doing everything they can to fight corruption. you saw the ukrainians take these quite dramatic steps to clamp down on corruption. >> richard engel, i thank you so
