contract the virus. this is a nurse in spain. she had cared for an ebola patient who had gotten the virus in sierra leone. president obama announced his administration is it working on adding protocols at airports across the country to improve the passenger screening process. he also said there will be more attention on training medical professionals on what to do should they come across a case. >> cdc staff would join ems first responders in meeting that flight and making the assessment on board the aircraft as to what the condition is. that's something that would apply to all flights. >> reporter: president obama added he's going to put more pressure on the leaders of other countries to help the west african nations that are right now trying to contain what's become the first ebola outbreak since it wass did covered in 1976.

even though the disease is deadly, it is still very, very rare. it is not an airborne disease. there has to be extreme caution to stop the spread of it. coming up in half an hour, find out how many americans are concerned about this and what they want to see done about containing the spread of ebola. >> thank you very much, stephanie. in fact, the u.s. treating two patients will receive an experimental drug in an effort to cure him. thomas duncan is treated with an oral medication that is so far unproven. the nbc cameraman is reportedly in good spirits. doctors expect his condition to worse i don't know before it gets better.

make eye contact and noticed inside the cab he was exposing himself. she pulled out her cell phone and by the time police arrived, he was long gone. she gave officers a he's a white man, in he is mid 30s, at the time he was waring a black aviator t-shirt, and the pickup truck was clean and it looked like it might be a new vehicle. as far as the make, that has not been put out there yet but it was full size. the police indicated they might be able to get her to meet with a sketch artist. if that's the case, they'll be able to both in marked and

unmarked vehicles to just get a better control out there, especially around nearby schools and routes that kids should be taking home from school. reporting live here in downtown palo alto, bob redell, today in the bay. >> thank you very much, bob. >> police are hoping surveillance video will help them catch a suspect who assaulted an elderly woman on a very busy street. you see a woman pushing a shopping cart there. she then turns around and pushes one of two people passing her to the ground. the victim is an 85-year-old oakland woman. the suspect is in her 50s. if you have information, you're asked to call police. >> police found thomas price in a sacramento county hotel room with cocaine, heroin and

community. video inside a levi's stadium bathroom is shocking, one victim knocked out cold and the other victim is in serious condition still. witnesses say the fight started as a result of an argument over who was next in the bathroom. >> i'm glad they caught them within minutes. i'm sorry they got hurt. >> that won't be the only topic at a community meeting tonight. there's also the issue of pe persistent parking problems at the stadium.

you'll remember people waiting for hours trying to get out of the parking lot. there was really not a lot of direction. then of course there is also the traffic flow on the vta lines. the meeting is tonight from 7:00 to 8:30 on milk -- what police say about that fight in the bathroom. >> and that video was just taken from somebody else in the rest room. >> and it's crystal clear. >> and you know what's shocking? all niners fans. >> someone is sitting there shooting the video and not doing anything about it. they don't actually intervene. >> though it ended up in a way helping to catch the suspects.

somebody who was trapped in a vehicle. it sounds dramatic but i'm still waiting on vehicles because it could have just been a wedged door they had to open up. international boulevard, north past the scene, 68 will take you right pasts sol see um and get you back on to 880 without any problems. this is the lowest spot through the bay area right now. we're looking toward the south bay as well with a nyseies flow northbound route and no delay getting across the bridges. but bart is experiencing minor delays, compounding the issues. >> it's 5:11. >> new york city city officials backtracking now after a controversial cell phone tracking is revealed. what the city says it will now do. >> and keeping your kids safe gl
