president. >> stole almost two dozen chain saws when an officer caught up to them. they started hurling the chainsaw. >> all that -- >> now going for the deep ball. he's got it for the touchdown. >> the packers, 42-10. >> and all that matters. >> julia pierson reportedly said the agency needed to be more like disney world. that way, intruders could still get into the white house but they could never remember where they parked. >> -- on "cbs this morning." >> i'm a senior vice president here. >> whoa. excuse me. vice president. whoa. >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" presented by toyota. let's go places. welcome to "cbs this

morning." a freelance cameraman is the fifth american citizen to test positive for ebola. a private jet will bring him to the u.s. for treatment. 33-year-old ashoka mukpo was diagnosed thursday. he just started working with an nbc crew in liberia. >> they say ashoka mukpo's condition was caught very early. the rest of the crew will return to the u.s. to be kwarnquarantined for 21 days. none have shown any ebola symptoms. >> in dallas this morning a woman linked to another ebola patient said she's tired of being quarantined. thomas eric duncan is the first person to be diagnosed with ebola in the united states. >> authorities ordered four people to not leave the apartment where duncan stay before he was hospitalized. manuel bojorquez is at the hospital treating duncan where they figured out how he slipped through the tracks. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. abdz good morning to our viewers in the west. texas health presbyterian hospital says a flaw in the way

they interacted with electronic records led to the miscommunication that allowed him to go home after his first visit to the e.r. last week. the hospital says it is flaw has been fixed but the fallout is far from over. the apartment where four people were quarantined was assessed for decontamination by hazmat crews on thursday. this is where duncan was staying, before being admitted to the hospital and diagnosed with ebola. parts of the complex were power washed and food and necessities were delivered. one of the residents who has been quarantined came out briefly to bring the supplies inside. this is duncan's half brother. his 21-year-old son is one of the people inside this apartment. >> everything is okay. we have food. everything is okay. we are here. we are fine. >> reporter: access to the apartment complexion has been limited to law enforcement, health workers and people who live there. sally nuran is the property

manager. >> we have different nationalities, different language barriers we're trying to work with. >> reporter: david bousa is upset more testing hasn't been available for residents. >> they should be screened. >> they should be screened. >> it hasn't happened. >> it hasn't happened. >> reporter: texas officials say people who have had direct or indirect contact with duncan has gone to more than 100. that includes three more children who were removed from school. duncan remains in isolation at this texas hospital but if he recovers he could face legal problems in his home country. liberian officials released a copy of the passenger health screening form duncan filled out before boarding his flight from liberia to the u.s. they believe he lied when he answered "no" to questions regarding whether he had contact with anyone with ebola. he tried to transport a sick neighbor to the hospital days earlier. that woman later died from ebola.

>> he's gone there and in a way put some americans in a state of fear. >> reporter: it's unclear whether duncan knew the woman he helped was infected with ebola. but liberian officials believe he did and say they plan to prosecute him. he remains in serious condition here. >> manuel, thanks. after leaving liberia two weeks ago duncan traveled on united from belgium to dulles and then on to dallas. dr. jon lapook is with us. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> turning to the united states, who specifically should be concerned about the risk of exposure this morning? >> the cdc keeps telling us it's spread by direct contact with body fluid. those people in the apartment. they're in quarantine and the people who had contact with them are being watched closely. >> but the story continues to change day by day. yesterday it was 18 people. in close contact. now we're hearing from health

officials that he could have been in contact with as many as 100 people. i know they're casting a wide net but should we be concerned? about this uneven response? >> i think we should be concerned. there's been a huge difference between the theory and the practice. we're told we have a robust health care system here in the united states. that is true. we're not africa. that is true. if somebody comes here, they'll be identified quickly, if they're identified correctly, put into isolation, quarantined, contacts followed. things should be controlled. that didn't happen here. the person came in. the guy said he was from liberia. there was a problem with the electronic records. handshaking. how about walking down the hall and saying, hey, the guy from africa has symptoms. so you need redundancy of systems. >> and you also have to depend on the honesty of the person, right? >> no question. >> he filled out the form and said he had no contact with anyone who had ebola. >> and it's not clear by the way, in fairness to him, that he knew. it was a pregnant woman who had bleeding. it could have been a complication of pregnancy and it

wasn't clear until after he came here that the other contacts with that woman became specific. >> here's the question. is there growing concern in the medical community in the united states that this may be a greater risk than we first thought? >> i think we have to emotionally immunize people, in a way, that almost certainly there will be other cases that will come here. it's magically thinking. to think the numbers going out of control in africa somebody is going to go -- whether they know it or not, they could be perfectly fine coming here. >> united airlines said there's zero risk essentially, that he could have -- other people could have contacted ebola because he was asymptomatic on the plane, but now united airlines is contacting patients passengers who were on those planes. why? >> i don't know why they made that decision. the cdc says and i specifically asked that question, they said that they don't routinely do that. i think at a time like this you have to go -- >> an abundance of caution. >> let's trust science. what cdc is saying. four decades of experience have told us. if facts change there's a new

way it's spread you go from there. but right now, you've got to rely on the science and the experts and the cdc and public health. >> is there some concern about overreaction? >> absolutely. there was a twitter feed. i looked this morning. why should we believe you? one person said why should we believe a guy who's name is lapook. he's making fun of my name. they're saying why should we believe the cdc. they're always lying to us. yes, i think there's a lot of panic out there and on facebook and social media. and i think we just need to do this. it's a serious problem, but you have to be calm and rely on science. >> thank you so much. this morning australia's prime minister says his country will fly air strikes against isis targets in iraq. lawmakers in turkey voted thursday to allow the country's military and troops to cross the border into syria and iraq. officials say that will not happen right away. american warplanes are bombing isis targets in syria near the turkish border. this sunday on "60 minutes" fbi director james comey talks with scott pelley.

about u.s. citizens in the isis army. >> how many americans are fighting in syria on the side of the terrorists? >> in the area of a dozen or so. >> do you know who they are? >> yes. >> each and every one of them? >> i think about a dozen or so i do. i hesitate only because i don't know what i don't know. >> with american passports, how do you keep them from coming home and attacking the homeland? >> ultimately an american citizen, unless their passports are revoked, are entitled to come back. if someone who fought with isil wants to come back, we will track them very carefully. >> on sunday's "60 minutes" you can watch scott pelley's story to find out what the fbi director considers to be the next big threat for americans. that's sunday night, here on cbs. a massive storm system is sweeping through the middle of the country this morning. severe weather slamming states from texas to ohio today. people in the dallas-ft. worth area are cleaning up after

hurricane-force winds. at least 40 schools are closed there today. our affiliate is there. >> good morning. this small campus here is one of the areas hardest hit in this whole situation. part of the roof blown off of this woman's dormitory. you can see here it's a big piece of the shingle. all these broken pieces of wood. some of the cars their windshields blown out as well. as the sun comes up so many residents waking up to assess this damage. the high winds and rain hit like a water pressure. north texas took a lashing on thursday afternoon. some areas caught 90-mile-an-hour wind gusts. this time lapse video shows transformers perched on electrical lines blowing out when the intense straight-line winds blew in. it rained bricks at this partial building collapse near the

historic ft. worth stockyard. several parked cars took heavy damage. arlington baptist college sits at the top of the hill, the city's highest point. students suffered bruises and cuts after the wind ripped off the roof, exposing everyone inside. >> the students are absolutely distraught. the girls on this side of the dormitory, they have lost all of their personal items, their computers. it's just been a total loss. >> take a look at this damage. this is a cadillac. we believe it belonged to one of the students. there is insulation from that roof. even an electrical cord. all wrapped around the mirror of that car. so much here is just in a mangled mess. that rain from thursday night, though short-lived, was much needed here in texas. in september, it was the driest here in 115 years. >> elizabeth, thank you so much. and america's biggest bank is reeling from one of the largest hack attacks in history. jpmorgan chase says 76 million households and 7 million

small business accounts were breached this summer. at first, chase thought only 1 million accounts were involved. anthony mason is here. good morning. >> good morning. what we know here is the breach occurred in june and lasted about two unins before the bank was able to catch it. at first they thought it was small. we now know it was 76 million accounts. 7 million small business accounts. the good news if it's relative here, only user contact information appears to have been taken. names, addresses, e-mails, phone numbers. chase says there's no evidence that account numbers passwords or social security numbers were taken. the bank has seen no unusual fraud also as yet. >> how is this different from retailers being hacked? >> well, i mean first of all, this is a bank so there's more sensitive information. and one thing that's particularly alarming is that the hackers got deep into the jpmorgan system before they were able to catch this. jpmorgan chase is spending a

quarter of a billion dollars a year on security and has 1,000 people connected to it. and it still happened. >> everybody knows somebody's after them. who do they think is behind it? >> the suspicion is it may go back to russia. this may have been done for reasons of disruption less than for theft. but, you know, that hasn't been proven yet. that's the active suspension. consumers have got to be really careful here. i got a letter from my bank after the home depot case saying i'm going to get a new credit card. even before i got that credit card, my account was hacked. you've got to monitor your account and the charges very closely. even small charges. the thief who took my card charged $2.75 coca-colas. why do they do that? to test to see if the charge goes through and then they go beyond that. the banks are being very aggressive about this, but you have to be vigilant too, because it's happening. >> be vigilant. >> thanks anthony.

this morning, america's unemployment rate is at a six-year low. the rate fell to 5.9% in september. the labor department also reports u.s. companies added 248,000 jobs last month. that's a big jump after a disappointing number in august. >> now to hong kong. new clashes this morning. this time pro democracy protesters are facing pushback beyond the chinese government. seth doane is tracking developments in hong kong. seth, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we're seeing far fewer protesters on the streets today. that may be because of the on-and-off rain we've had and it may also be because of the promise of talks between the government and protesters, but we're also seeing today patience of some wearing thin. pictures from local television show pro-beijing residents in one part of hong kong trying to tear down pro-democracy camps today after more than a week

of disruption. some government offices remain temporarily closed. protesters continue facing off with police. the decision to open a dialogue unfolded in the middle of the night among rising tensions. police had been photographed transporting riot supplies to where a stand-off was expected. protesters had set a midnight deadline for the chief executive to step down. we were there as the deadline approached. police with riot gear on one side. protesters on the other. >> you can see people around me starting to put on a face masks, goggles, protective gear in case there is some retaliation, if, indeed the protesters do cross this barricade. at 11:30 p.m. the chief executive cy leung held a press conference saying he would not step down. and announcing he'd appointed his number two to talk to protesters.

an agitated crowd chanted to each other in cantanese, keep calm. what do you make of what you've heard tonight? >> can i swear? >> reporter: sure. >> it's a lot of crap, you can say. >> ivan, a 20-year-old protester worries that several different protest groups makes it difficult to find a clear vision. why are you so disappointed right now? >> no one has done anything -- no one has said anything that has meaning to it. there's no conclusions. no one has an idea of what to do next. everyone's lost. >> reporter: and that's really where we are. it is a wait and see approach here. we know that up in beijing today, the "people's daily" a communist party mouthpiece printed a front-page article calling the protesters demands for unfettered elections unreasonable. here in hong kong, we know from protesters and protest leaders that they hope these talks with the government are held in public. they say their next move will be based on how those talks go.

norah. >> seth, thanks. at disneyland visitors may think twice before riding mickey's fun wheel. it broke down standing several for hours before workers were able to get everyone down. no one hurt. an accused bank robber led police officers on a high-speed wrong-way chase. a look at the pursuit and violent end. >> reporter: high speeds and big risks. >> now he's going wrong way, wrong way on to the freeway. now this is a serious situation. >> reporter: this 2 1/2-hour police chase began when the suspect stole $12,000 worth of steel loaded in his flatbed truck. >> going against traffic, high speeds. this is tough. >> reporter: at one point the driver attempted to get out of the truck on the freeway by climbing over the fence, but he got back in the vehicle and made a u-turn.

>> at least on one occasion we discontinued the pursuit for the safety of the public. we did have an airship unit up above following, monitoring him. >> reporter: police later identified the driver as 53-year-old steven bartlett wanted for a series of bank robberies across southern california. the chase ended in a final desperate dangerous maneuver. >> crossing over lanes. off the side of the freeway. overturns there. on the side there. just lost control completely. wow. >> reporter: the driver taken into custody and to a local hospital for observation. for "cbs this morning," ben tracy, los angeles. it's 7:19. ahead, the latest on a cbs news investigation that began five years ago. dna evidence ignored in good morning. looking like another hot day today. in fact, probably the hottest day of the week. high pressure overhead, the skies are clear. and those offshore winds are

over texas abortion clinics. a federal appeals judge will allow partial enforcement of a controversy law. it effectively closes all but seven facilities. the rest would have to spend millions upgrading to hospital level standards. the court is considering the constitutionality of the entire law. bloomberg says former fed chair ben bernanke got a big laugh when he says he's having a hard time refinancing his mortgage. he wasn't joking. he told a conference in chicago that lenders may have gone too far on credit conditions. he also said the market for first-time homebuyers is not what it should be. >> that is kind of funny. "the wall street journal" reports that u.p.s. and fedex want retailers to get real on last-minute holiday shipping. stores are resisting efforts to rein in the 11th hour delivery guarantees. even after last year's big problems delivering gifts. 30% of americans say they buy gifts within five days of the holidays. of those, 60% plan to do it again this year.

>> and forbes says buffett has hijacked the auto business. his company's buying 78 dealerships and more than 100 franchises in ten states. and he may decide to buy even more auto dealers in the future. it's one of the most horrifying crimes but rarely do perpetrators get punished. just 3% of rapists serve time. think about it. that's because police are ignoring their most powerful pieces of evidence. cbs news reported first five years ago that untold numbers of rape kits are gathering dust in crime labs and some are going untested. it's causing some police departments to test their rape kits and there have been some astonishing results. nancy cordes is in washington. good morning. >> good morning. rape kits are administered to victims right after they're attacked to collect the perpetrator's dna.

yet many women go through this invasive five-hour procedure for nothing because so many police departments don't test all their kits. some say it's too expensive. others say it takes too much time. the result is rapists can go undetected and attack again. >> i looked up, and the next thing i know, i have a gun pointing at me. >> this cleveland woman was standing at a gas station when she was forced into an alley and raped in 1994, but it took 20 years to identify her attacker charles steel because police never bothered to test her dna rape kit. in fact 4,000 untested kits were gathering dust at the police department until mike dewine took over as state general and decide to test them all. >> you know i thought these old rape kits would have good evidentiary value but i had no idea how valuable they are.

>> reporter: suddenly known criminals with dna on file were being tied to attacks on as many as seven different women. cuyahoga county prosecutor tim mcguinty has issued 200 indictments. a third of them are considered serial rapists. >> they don't stop until they're dead or physically unable to get out of bed and attack somebody. the sooner you empty your shelves of the rape kits, the sooner you can take the serial offenders and serial rapists off the street. >> reporter: already, cleveland's violent crime rate is dropping. >> these guys are a one-man crime wave. they rob and rape. they sell drugs and they shoot people. >> reporter: and yet many cities still aren't testing their old rape kits. >> we that's unbelievable to me. it's negligence. >> reporter: the joyful heart foundation which works to end the rape kit backlog says las vegas has tested just 16% of its 5,000 kits. tulsa, oklahoma is seeking

funding to test 3,400 kits. and wisconsin has 6,000 statewide and is prioritizing which kits to test first. >> this is not just any one city or state's problem, this is a national problem. needs a national salute. >> how many women have you reached out to so far? >> i would say since last year, 30. >> reporter: in cleveland, it's investigator nicole desanto's job to track down women raped years ago so they can testify against their newly identified attackers. >> i've had women tell me they felt worthless because no one took them seriously. >> reporter: steele has been tied to two other rapes in cleveland and two in cincinnati. he's now in prison for life. how has your life changed now that you know who your attacker was and you know that he is behind bars can't do that to anyone else? >> i feel blessed.

no more wondering. now i know. >> yet, because the testing takes time, even cleveland won't be able to fully clear out its rape kit backlog until 2018. does it make you sick to think all of these people could have been put away 15 years ago? >> when we look back and we see, in hindsight, had we prosecuted these individuals earlier, that those victims are unnecessary victims. >> reporter: and the irony is once these kits are tested cleveland police can identify the perpetrator's instantly because they've usually committed some kind of crime somewhere else so their dna is in the national database. so far, charlie, their success rate in prosecuting these criminals is an astounding 87%. >> wow. >> wow. >> thank you nancy. >> great reporting. this morning, one very prominent republican is supporting the idea of jeb bush running for president. first brother of former president george w. bush. says he's encouraging the one time florida governor to jump

into the 2016 race. the bush dynasty began in the oval office in 1989 with their father. meanwhile, democrats are waiting for their own possible political deja vu from the clintons. chip reid is in washington with the family business. chip, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. george w. bush shared a little insight into his brother's feelings about a potential presidential run. we're still a long way from 2016. we now know at least one family member thinks that jeb is leaning towards saying yes. >> i think he wants to be president. >> reporter: former president george w. bush said he's been talking to his younger brother jeb about a possible run for president. >> i of course was pushing him to run for president. he of course was saying i haven't made up my mind. and i clearly don't think he has. but -- and plus i don't think he liked it that his older brother was pushing him. >> reporter: the former florida governor admitted he's weighing his options.

>> we need to have candidates lift our spirits. it's a pessimistic country now. >> reporter: he spent time fund-raising for fellow republicans, leading many to think he's laying the groundwork for a 2016 campaign. >> hello, iowa. [ cheers and applause ] i'm back! i love iowa. >> reporter: meanwhile, hillary clinton is spending time with democrats in early voting states, most recently sharing what she called her grandmother glow. >> i think my granddaughter has just as much god given potential as a boy who was born in that hospital on the same day. >> reporter: a 2016 bush/clinton matchup would be different than 19 1992 when clinton beat bush. now clinton and bushes have become close friends, practically family. barbara bush says she thinks of him like an adopted son. >> i love bill clinton. maybe not his politics but i love bill clinton. >> reporter: but political watchers are still preparing for

a 2016 circus. >> it would be a new and special kind of circus. see if you had a general election in which you had the clinton family with all of its history and all of its exciting characters but then you also have all of the people from the bush years who are still around and those four years of political conflict. >> reporter: as for the bush family, it's complicated. with george w. bush saying jeb should run. he disagreed with his mother who says the country has had enough bushes. but jeb's son, george p. bush, running for texas land commission, told me earlier this year that republicans need someone just like his father to run for president. gayle. >> thank you, chip. getting pressure from all sides in the family that's nice. a clinton/bush matchup would be fun to watch, wouldn't it? >> and if jeb bush wins that race in texas, he becomes a prominent political figure. >> we will be watching. thousands of high school students are getting ready to play tonight under those friday
