lorde's huge hit benched just as the world series is about to begin. how kansas city is fighting back in a royal rumble. >> and we do say good monday morning to everybody. the world series gets under way tomorrow night. games have already begun. you're not going to hear this song played on san francisco radio stations. there's a good reason for that. it turns out that lorde was actually inspired by george brett. >> she wasn't even born in 1985. we have a lot to get to this morning, begin pg with the big ebola news. an important milestone for the family of thomas eric duncan and s of dozens of others in texas now declared ebola-free. released this morning after three fwheex quarantine.

also after the largest company declared ebola-free this morning. new evidence of how hard it can be for the disease to spread. abc's tom llamas has more. >> reporter: george, this morning also in that group the paramedics that first brought thomas eric duncan to this hospital. it's a milestone, as you mentioned. but there are still 75 health care workers, who can't travel, can treat patients and and who wake up every morning hoping to show no symptoms. this morning, a big morning in dallas. the first group of people quarantined and monitored for their close contact with thomas eric duncan, now free and clear. 43 in total, including duncan's relatives and fiancee, louise troh. >> after 21 days being on that watch list, there's zero chance that any of those men or louise carries the ebola fire us. >> reporter: duncan's fiancee telling abc news, we're so grateful that none of us has shown any signs of illness. adding, our hearts also go out

to the two brave women who have been infected by this terrible disease as they were trying to help him. one of those nurse, amber vinson, in stable condition, able to communicate with her parents. her family saying overnight, vinson contacted the cdc before flying to cleveland to prepare for her wedding. the cdc cleared her for travel. vinson's family says, when she learned about nina pham's infection, she asked if arrangements could be made for her to fly back to dallas as a precaution. but the family says the officials assured amber that her concerns were unfounded. concerns across the country still high. the department of defense now assembling a 30-member medical support team of 20 critical care nurses. 5 infectious disease doctors, and 5 infectious disease protocol trainers all able to offer short-term help should more ebola cases arise across the country. now in maryland at the national institutes health doctors say

nina pham, the other nurse who contracted ebola while treating duncan is fighting fatigue, still in fair condition. >> she's in very good spirits as of last night in my discussion with her. >> reporter: dallas officials releasing these photos of nina's dog, bentley. the center currently caring for him posed the photos sunday with his caretaker clad in a bio hazard suit. so far, bentley showing no signs of the disease. still, no answer on how pham or vinson became infected with ebola. but the cdc is expected to release new guidelines this week where they are asking all health care workers to be completely covered with protective gear, no skin showing, including the neck area. robin? >> thank you, tom. as george was alluding to moments ago, good news in the fight against ebola. nigeria has been declared officially free of the disease after six weeks with no new cases. that's huge. for more, let's go to abc's dr. richard besser. you're nodding along. >> such big news. >> yes, it is. also, the fact that duncan's family is now out of isolation,

after 21 days. that's a huge milestone as well. >> this is huge. this family has been through so much. they lost a loved one. now they'll be able to grieve and get on with their life. it's so important for america to see this. these are the people who had the most contact with mr. duncan. they were with him for days while he was sick in the apartment, and days afterwards. they didn't get sick. and it chose early on in the illness, people are not very contagious. that should give relief for people on airplanes and other places. >> why the 21 days? why is that the quarantined time? >> the w.h.o. has seen that that is the longest time from when somebody is exposed to it to showing symptoms. if you're fine after that, you're fine. >> but we are concerned about the health care workers who cared for him, especially towards the end of his time there in the hospital. why is that? >> let me show you this. as a person is nearing death, the amount of virus in their blood skyrockets. right near death, a small amount of blood can have 10 billion virus particles. we're now 12 days out from the period that he skied. it's still the critical window for the health care workers. if we get to the end of the week

and they're fine, we can all breathe a sigh of relief. >> and still more action to be taken. what is your take on this 30-member strike team? >> i just heard from cdc sources this morning. they'll interact with the cdc team on the ground, decide whether a hospital is able to care for one of these patients on their on. if not, they'll look to see about moving them to a specialized unit. these nurses, you have 20 nurses, infectious disease doctors and others to make sure a hospital can do this safely. they're working through the details but it's a very good sign. >> many were also struck that duncan's family were concerned for the two nurses fighting for their lives right now. and showing such gratitude for them, referring to their bravery. >> all right. thank you, rich. >> we're going to turn now to how the obama administration is handling the crisis. the president held a rare saturday night meeting before heading back on the campaign trail on sunday. abc's jon karl is here with more on that. jon, the president's ebola czar at the white house saturday but not part of that meeting. >> reporter: that's right.

klain was meeting with chief of staff mcdonough, but he doesn't start as the ebola czar until later this week. meanwhile, the president is trying to reassure the public that this threat is under control. and also, that he is making combatting the threat his top priority. so, over the weekend, you saw the president send the white house representative to dallas. and as you heard dr. besser mention, ordered the pentagon to establish this rapid response team that would go into action if there are any further cases of ebola here in the u.s. also trying to get back to business as usual, the president out on the campaign trail yesterday? >> reporter: these are his first campaign rallies of the entire year. he campaigned in two very democratic states in connecticut and -- i mean, in maryland and illinois. both for governors' candidates. the president does not have a single campaign stop scheduled with the vulnerable democrats in the senate races. you're unlikely to see that given how unpopular he is especially in those states.

>> they're doing their best to run away from him right now. okay, jon karl, thanks very much. let's go to amy with the other top stories. we begin with breaking news near chicago. an appalling discovery. a suspected serial killer with as many as seven women among his victims in the northwest indiana cities of hammond and gary. abc's alex perez is on the case. alex, good morning. tell us what we know so far? >> reporter: good morning, amy. at this point, authorities are still working this case. they believe the suspect they have in custody may be responsible for murders dating as far back as the mid-'90s. overnight, authorities have found more female bodies in northwest indiana, this, after police say they have a man in custody that may be lynched to four murders. charges may come as early as this morning. >> it was like a domino effect. >> reporter: the investigation started when 19-year-old africa harding was found in this hotel, strangled.

police questioned a 43-year-old man who then confessed to the murder. the man then led police to six more bodied and abandoned homes. aneeth jones is the only body identified. she was reported missing october 8th by her family. >> once we find out who they are, then we'll have to do a time line backwards to see who the last person they were with and who they talked to and then the investigation really take off. >> reporter: hammond mayor thomas mcdermott jr. called the susability an admitted serial killer on his facebook page who admitted to a couple of homicides back in hammond back in '94 and '95. again, this suspect is a person of interest. charges could be filed as soon as today. we'll continue to follow the story for any development. >> we know you will, alex, thank you. we're hearing for the first time from the woman who may have given the police their biggest break yet in the search for eric frein, the survivalist wanted for ambushing two police state

troopers in pennsylvania last month. the woman said she saw frein friday night while she was walking near her home. she shared the chilling details with our philadelphia station, wpvi. >> he had actually turned towards me. and that's where you could see the mud on his face. you could tell what height he was based off of the truck that he was standing next to? >> he had a gun? >> oh, yeah, you could clearly tell it was a gun. >> rifle? >> a rifle, with a scope attached to it. >> wow, scary moments there. police call her account highly credible. that area is south of the original search zone. a slow-motion disaster near tampa, florida. this 20-ton crane tipped over and came crashing down. watch that operator in the orange suit, jumping out just in the nick of time. he is fine, but two cars and an rv were destroyed, along with the roofs of several homes. well, a warning about this next video. it is shocking. we should mention, nobody was seriously injured. it happened in eastern china.

this ambulance ran a red light, smashing into a car, which then struck two pedestrians. you see on the bottom of your screen. look at that. they suffered a few broken bones. otherwise, amazingly, they are okay. and finally, peyton manning says he's honored and humbled after entering the history books once again. he broke the nfl record for touchdown passes throwing his 509th touchdown last night in a blowout win over the 49ers. his teammates had fun later playing a game of keep-away with the ball. which, by the way, the ball is likely headed to the hall of fame. >> all good-natured. >> a good sport. >> so funny. >> boys will be boys. >> exactly. >> okay, amy, thank you. now to a pumpkin festival in new hampshire that turned ugly. a riot breaking out over the weekend. bottles thrown, cars overturned. tear gas fired. this morning, police are investigating what sparked the mayhem, and abc's

cecilia vega has the latest for us. good morning to you. >> reporter: this was supposed to be a peaceful pumpkin festival. instead, it turned into a violent clash between crowds and police and now, authorities are looking for surveillance footage and cell phone video to find more suspects. >> oh! >> reporter: this morning, the search is on to find the perpetrators responsible for this frantic violence. riots breaking out this weekend at an annual fall festival at keene state college. >> a piece of glass cut my lip open from here to here, and it chipped one of my front teeth. i was covered in blood. >> reporter: the university now scouring social media postings trying to track down everyone involved in the overnight anarchy. the most serious offender, potentially facing expulsion. >> i'm absolutely horrified and outraged at what happened. >> reporter: terrified students screaming and running away from flying bottles. overturned car, police lobbing

tear gas, trying to calm the crowd. >> i got hit with a jack daniel's bottle across the face. >> reporter: officers responding to 235 emergency calls. 14 arrests related to the unruly behavior. and 20 people taken to the hospital. >> people are just throwing anything they can get their hands on. >> reporter: one positive note. there is one. volunteers turned out to help clean up the huge mess on the keene state college campus. probably, no surprise here, police say much of the trouble was fueled by alcohol. robin, the governor is calling what happened out there a disgrace. >> it is. it's been, over the years, a wonderful tradition. >> thank you, guys. now to serena williams. speaking out against a top tennis official who set up a firestorm with some offensive remarks, calling serena and her sister venus, the williams brothers. reena ninan here with the story. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. that official is a member of the international olympic committee. he calls the whole thing a joke made on late-night russian television and claims something

was lost in translation. [ grunting ] >> she's known on the court for her powerful hits. >> i thought they were in a way bullying. >> reporter: this morning, tennis superstar serena williams breaking her silence off the court, taking aim at the head of the russian tennis federation, shamil tarpischev over comments he made last week. >> i thought his comments were very insensitive. i thought they were extremely sexist as well as racist. >> reporter: in an appearance on russian television, tarpischev referred to serena and her sister venus as the williams brothers. later going on to say, it's frightening when you look at them. but really, you just need to play against the ball. the comments igniting a firestorm in the tennis world. the women's tennis association quickly fining tarpischev the tour maximum, $25,000, banning him for a year. >> i think the wta did a great job of taking initiative and

immediately taking action. >> reporter: fellow superstars rushing to williams' defense, including world number two, maria sharapova. >> i think they're very disrespectful and uncalled for. i'm glad that many people have stood up, including the wta. >> reporter: tarpischev says it was only met as a joke and think doesn't think this incidence deserves so much fuss. serena currently ranked number one in the world is in singapore for the wta finals which gets under way later today. the wta wants him to give a formal apology to the williams sisters and asking him for a full explanation of his comments. george, robin? >> we'll wait and see what he has to say about that. thanks, very much. your man's got something. >> thank you for calling him that. at least you understand. we turn to matthew mcconaughey, generating so much buzz right now, not for a role in a movie or tv show, but for a series of cryptic commercials for lincoln.

abc's rebecca jarvis is in the "social square" with the story. good morning. >> hi, lara, good morning. they're being called bizarre, surreal, and even strange. the bottom line is that matthew mcconaughey uttering deeply philosophical sweet nothings is sales gold for one car company. it's getting everyone clicking online. >> sometimes you gotta go back to actually move forward. >> reporter: they're the unusual new ads starring matthew mcconaughey that have everyone talking. >> i don't mean going back to reminisce and chase ghosts. reporter: the oscar winner and former lincoln lawyer, turning lincoln pitchman. >> i've been driving a lincoln since long before anybody paid me to drive one. >> reporter: waxing poetic from behind the wheel of the lincoln mkc. >> that's a big bull. >> reporter: even staring down a bull. >> 1800 pounds to do whatever the heck i want. i can respect that. >> reporter: the ads going viral with over 1.5 million hits on youtube.

>> maybe we should ask him to mooo-ve it along. >> reporter: and being spoofed by comedians. like ellen. >> if we're in his way, maybe he should use his horn. >> reporter: all that buzz equaling big business for the recently struggling brand. sales up 13% so far this year. >> the lincoln brand has been out of sight for so many years. people are talking about lincoln again. >> reporter: a much-needed boost thanks, in part, to an unlikely source. >> you just have to look in the right place. >> i can respect that. this is not the first time a celeb car video went viral. remember will ferrell as ron burgundy. and those dodge durango commercials. after the commercials ran, sales jumped 59%, guys. >> and those commercials, that music underneath. >> it's like his character in "true detective." he's very similar. he likes to wax poetic nothings. >> you sound like you're about to buy some lincolns.

>> all right, all right, all right. >> very good. >> we saw -- thank you, rebecca -- we saw matthew mcconaughey's latest movie. we were at the screening last night. i feel like i have to go forward to go backward right now and talk about this frost. this morning. can we get that music under my weather? wouldn't that be good? yeah, no, he's good in that movie, too. this is what was happening through the weekend. snow in west virginia. frost this morning, waking us up in parts of new jersey, connecticut, up into parts of maine, as well. yes, i hear some sighs. are you guys unhappy? i'm sorry. frost advisories. current temperatures this morning. you're stepping out the door in the 40s for a lot of folks. but look back there. 39. saranac lake is subfreezing. i'll leave you look at some heavy rainfall in the pacific northwest.

and in the case of another ebola scare, the pentagon is putting a 30-person medical team on stand by to help the cdc if needed. and another story near chicago, a suspected serial killer is in custody linked to the deaths of at least seven women in northwest indiana. police say a missing person's report took them to this motel 6 where they found the first body. evidence there led them to a suspect who they say confessed and led them to the bodies of six more women in abandoned houses. new forensic testing could finally give the family of missing student hannah graham some answers. the testing is being done on remains found near the universities of virginia campus over the weekend. graham was last seen five weeks ago, watching with suspect jesse matthew. he is charged in connection with her disappearance. a bizarre rescue in california. a woman became trapped in a

over-the-counter meditations that can be really dangerous to kids, toddlers and infants. the dosing is confusing. how many of us remember this? we don't recommend using teaspoons, tablespoons anymore. it comes down to using a dropper or the cups. sometimes they're hard to read. this is fraught with problems. children have died because of the medication errors. >> so startling. when you put it in those terms. it's not surprising that cough and cold medications are on the top of the list. >> exactly. and we've been hearing this for a while. this is a huge call to action from pediatricians. these medications are not necessary. they can be dangerous. coughs and colds are self-limited. we have to remember. coughs happen for a reason. it's to clear those secretions. the last thing you want to do is blunt the reflexes. blunt the response. and let those secretions settle in. >> my little one came into the room at 1:00 in the morning. looking for cough medication. i said, just get in bed with me. hoping it would go away. it's the little guys we have to worry about?

right? >> absolutely. their metabolism is immature. all the medications should be dosed based on their body weight, which is harder to do. important thing, confirm that dose. white down the doses if you're giving your child medication. and when in doubt, ask the pediatrician or pharmacist. >> thank you, jen. you'll be answering questions throughout the morning @drjashton.

taking it apart. people didn't like that so much. >> not while we were filming. >> i'm doing what i always wanted to do. >> you're directing "modern family." and you all were more of the traditional family. have you seen how it's changed over the years? >> think the way families have been portrayed has evolved as we have. ours was a nuclear, traditional family. families have changed. they look different. they come together in different ways. i love that tv has reflected that. there's still things all families go through. i think you can find stuff to relate to in the show. >> amen. >> some things stay the same. >> and your real-life family didn't want you to be the main character in "wonder years" right? >> i wasn't allowed to audition for series regular parts. my mom wanted to keep us kids normal, me and my sister. i auditioned for the part of

from ignorance. it's not people trying to be discriminatory. they just don't know. >> reporter: i know you're a mom of three. i'm a mom of two. our kids are growing up in such a different world. bullying takes on so many different forms. what are your concerns? ments the thing that's the most disturbing to me is the anonymous aspect of it that gives this sort of counsel to people to be hateful as a sport. it's become like a game. and, it's not a game. it's not funny. there's nothing brave or courageous about anonymously writing unkind things. that's what gives power to so much of this hatred. i mean, i wish we could go back to when i was in middle school and high school and all you wanted to change was the pizza. >> reporter: what do you teach your children in terms of tolerance? >> we have different versions of this conversation. i do always say to them, remember who you are.

be impeccable in every way that you represent our entire family in the day. because, even to be passive, to be a bystander is to be absolutely as wrong as the person who is standing in the front of the line of cruelty. everyone if this is not your friend. even if this is not your cause. we're still all human kind. just everybody is trying to get through the day the best they can. >> reporter: it's a message these five kids can relate to, and this, a conversation they won't soon forget. how amazing sit that miss julia roberts is here throwing out the welcome mat? >> don't get us started. >> reporter: everyone at school, look who you're sitting with right now. >> this is the lunch table. the cool kids lunch table right here. >> reporter: and a chance to take some of the most epic selfies. ever. how great was she with those kids. it made their night and ours as

throw it in like this. after it's cooked. >> do you want me to do that? >> no. you do that. this will help. you throw this peas. chicken stock. a little bit of the water from cooking. otherwise it gets dry. right. and then you throw peas in. you have basically something that looks like this. >> it's got the pancett and and proscuitto. it's not terribly bad. >> no, i was joking. parmigiano, parsley. and at the end, egg yolks in you want. enseems to be enjoying. i didn't know you were here. >> because we've been eating the whole time. >> you must check out the recipe for this. this is gorgeous.
