tom vacar joins us live from pacific palisades. tom, i know you've had a busy day. what's what's the latest on the ground down in southern california? >> well, the latest is that we told you an hour ago that we believed that there were concerns about possible collapse of a multi-family dwelling, whether a condo or an apartment building. we're not exactly sure. and the belief was that because it had been burning for a long period of time, and they were spraying a lot of water on it, that it had been heated sufficiently, that it might collapse, and nobody's being allowed to go down. this part of sunset boulevard, which is closed anyhow. but sunset boulevard is a major, major thoroughfare in los angeles and closed now because of the fires. but we're sticking around just to see, because the source that gave us information, very reliable source, and said that the police were told not to let anybody down there for fear that this might happen. now, whether or not it happens is completely unknown. but whenever they see any kind of stress in a building like this, they're goi

tom winter joins us now. tom, what more do we know?> reporter: lester, besides the obvious, that these two incidents occurred on the same day, the two used the same car rental service. there were explosives that were either used or attempted to be used. they both served in the army. they both were at fort liberty at some point. but it's not yet clear they were there at the same time. and authorities are quick to mention tonight these coincidences but also clearly saying they haven't found any definitive links and strongly noting the investigations are still in their early stages. big picture, lester, the type of attack we saw in new orleans, a single person fueling their own radicalization and planning, is the concern law enforcement continues to have right now. >> tom winter, thank you. >>> we're also learning more names of those killed in the new orleans terror attack. tonight we honor them. many of them so young. just taking a break to ring in the new year. an aspiring nurse. a college student. a single mom. among the 14 people cele

agents who went to the school, tom. and pedro martinez, the chicago public school administrator said this. listen here. >> we had individuals coming to one of the schools that presented credentials that are -- that -- and shared they were from i.c.e. and so our staff followed the protocols. we were very clear with them. we've been training our principals, our security guards, any front office staff to make sure that making sure they know we are not to share any information with anybody from the immigration department or i.c.e. >> john: not only did the ceo of chicago public schools pass off misinformation about u.s. secret service agents who were interpreted to be i.c.e., but listen to what jb pritzker, the governor said after that. [reading quote on the screen] >> to be clear again, these were secret service agents running down a threat made on tik tok, and they were not i.c.e. agents, and i.c.e. never went near the school, and what do you say to pedro martinez and the governor of i illinois that appear to be selling f
