8:02 am
protect privacy. as the home is finally disinfected, there are so many questions about the delays and missed opportunities in this case. and ryan owens is on the case in dallas. good morning to you. >> reporter: dan, good morning. more on the family in a moment. but first the latest on the one and it's important to remember, only person in the united states right now sick with ebola. he's in the hospital behind me in serious condition. meanwhile, that family, they are finally out of that cramped, contaminated apartment. they are the family at the center of the storm. feared by some, pitied by others. and this morning these four finally have a new home. one far from the hazmat suits that now occupy america's first residence contaminated with the deadly ebola virus. >> there's room to roam there. it's an area inside the city of dallas and away from other people. >> reporter: authorities will not say exactly where the family's new four-bedroom home is, only that it's donated, isolated and gated. the family spent several days in
8:03 am
this two-bedroom dallas apartment with liberia national thomas eric duncan after he had ebola symptoms and was therefore contagious. and after he was hospitalized, they stayed five days in close contact with his sheets, towels, all potentially contaminated. >> right now she is scared, okay. people in this complex are scared. >> reporter: duncan's girlfriend and family members are healthy, no symptoms. to make the point they aren't contagious, county leaders drove with them to the new house. >> i'm wearing the same shirt i was when i was in the car with that family. >> reporter: the family's old apartment looks like a nightmarish crime scene. caravans of hazmat teams, wearing face shields, two layers of gloves, taped suits to keep anything from seeping in. they tarped and taped duncan's car. inside, crews collect all of his belongings plus anything he
8:04 am
touched. from the mattress he slept on to the couch he sat on. they will be cut apart and stored in barrels until they can be incinerated. >> we are anxious. but there is no fear in our eyes. we will be safe. we will get this done in the appropriate way. >> reporter: now that family of four just some of the people the cdc is keeping a very close eye on this morning in dallas. a total of ten people are considered at high risk. that includes the paramedics that were inside the ambulance that took duncan here to the hospital. in addition, 40 people considered at low risk. still, people are keeping an eye on them. paula. >> thank you for reporting from dallas this morning. and now to the efforts to fight ebola directly at its source. dr. richard besser is returning home today from ground zero of the epidemic in liberia. and he joins us from brussels, belgium, to show the precautions being taken on his journey out of africa. good morning.
8:05 am
>> reporter: the key to stopping ebola is making sure sick people can't get on the plane. i started my journey home yesterday, and i wanted to see how good a job in liberia keeping the disease in the borders. arriving in brussel overnight, out of ebola-stricken liberia. there's no signs saying anything about ebola. on the plane, some attendants wearing masks and gloves. but by the time we landed, it seemed to be business as usual. we have been here a week, time to go home. heading to the airport. now the front line of the battle to contain ebola, to keep it from spreading around the world. there was so much ebola here in liberia. people want to know can you really keep it from leaving? i'm going to find out. driving in, guards check my temperature. fever is one of the first signs of ebola. and remember, you're not infectious unless you have symptoms. fever, no, headache, no, vomiting, no. nothing we did as journalists us
8:06 am
put us in harm's way. mukpo just diagnosed with ebola days ago. his parents sitting down with abc news. >> he just spent six weeks filming the tragedies, people dying, waiting for care. his mind went there, he thought he's going to die. >> reporter: he will be flown to america as soon as tomorrow. and not on a public plane. headed to the same ten-bed isolation unit in nebraska that treated the doctor with ebola. >> i think their confidence level is boosted given the experience we had previously and recently. >> reporter: but for all the travelers leaving liberia on my plane, questions. have you been in close contact with someone with ebola. this is a really good screening questionnaire. but it will only work if people read it carefully and tell the truth. we know eric duncan did not reveal he had carried an ebola victim. another check point, a visual inspection.
8:07 am
see if i look sick. my temperature taken a second time. lots of check points to make sure that people who are sick are not leaving the country. all clear. but so many lives depending on trust. and a thermometer. i'm halfway home now, but now i'm mixed in with all the other european travelers. when i arrive in america later today, they'll have no idea where i've been. that's one of the reasons why calls for closing the border just won't work, paula. >> dr. besser, phenomenal reporting. but a couple of questions. white house officials admitted last night the reaction to this epidemic has been rocky in perception and reality. they remain confident there will not be an outbreak. how can they be sure? >> reporter: depends on outbreak, may be more cases, people with direct contact with mr. duncan. but they have identified the contacts and won't be able to spread disease unless they're sick. by monitoring them, no outbreak
8:08 am
beyond those people who have had contact with mr. duncan. >> you showed us firsthand the lack of precautionary measures right there in brussel, which is a majority artery in and out of africa. short of closing the borders and stopping flights, how does the u.s. protect itself from the spread of ebola? >> reporter: it's clear how to protect america. do everything we can to stop disease in west africa so there's no more people boarding planes bringing it to our borders. but in america we have to be prepared. every hospital has to take this as a wakeup call. ask where they have travelled and act on the information. >> all right, just amazing reporting. and i feel like anywhere i go at this point, this is the concern of so many. and their concern is that the reaction and the criticism that they were too casual in their response to this. >> and questions about whether or not enough is being done on the ground in africa right now. wish rich safe travels. and move on to the other major story of the morning.
8:09 am
the latest atrocity of isis. an american family in high anxiety and a british family in mourning. the apparent beheading of a british taxi driver. he is in syria as part of an aid convoy. it ends with the threat to execute this american yet. march march -- alex marquardt is here with more. >> good morning. this is the fourth brutal execution of a westerner by isis in six weeks. a response to the american-led air strikes in syria and iraq. and as the u.s. ramps up the air campaign against the group, they're now warning that the life of a young american army veteran is on the line. he's peter kassig, a 26-year-old from indiana. shown in the latest isis video kneeling in the desert next to a man threatening to kill him. he's a former army ranger who served in iraq. a medic who find a cause in the syrian civil war. founding a non-profit dedicated to providing medical supplies

8:11 am
foley and steven sotloff. and on a personal note, i met peter just days before he went back into syria. this is a particularly nasty and dangerous time to be going into syria. but he spoke so passionately about helping the syrians caught up in the war, this was something he saw as a personal mission. >> he understood the risk. >> absolutely. but he wanted to take them anyway. he was very passionate about helping the syrians in the war that's been raging for three and a half years. >> we are thinking about him and his family. and over to mr. ron claiborne. >> good morning, mr. dan harris, ms. paula faris. good morning, everyone. the huge cyber attack targeting jpmorgan chase may be bigger than previously thought. the security breach compromised the identities of 83 million households and businesses. the hackers, believed to be operating out of russia, may have targeted nine more financial institutions. the names of those firms not yet released.

and harvard university is on high alert after chilling threats targeting hundreds of female students. officials say about 500 of the poorly-written threats were sent mostly to asian women on campus. the e-mails went out on friday and have co-eds on edge. >> it's certainly very striking just because it's very specific. tomorrow at 11:00 i'm going to come in and shoot all of you. >> and the fbi joined the investigation. police stepped up security around campus. overseas to hong kong, 19 arrested overnight in clashes between pro-democracy protesters and police. and muhammad lila is there and has the latest. >> reporter: good morning. from downtown hong kong. take a look around me. tens of thousands of protesters are still here on the streets in defiance of beijing. but the mood has changed. overnight there were skirmishes at another protest site. and accusing the government of sending in thugs and giving police an excuse to clear everybody out.
8:13 am
we saw the protesters firmly held their ground and now even more entrenched. they will not leave until beijing gives them the right to elect their own leaders. and to give you a sense of the mood here. that orange sign over any shoulder. that says do you hear the people sing? it's that famous song from "les miz." but they are claiming it as their own. >> reporting from hong kong. and a fire at the united flight 93 memorial in shanksville, pennsylvania, destroyed three administration buildings. among the items lost is the 9/11 flag that flew over the capitol on september 11, 2001. no one was injured. the fire is under investigation. and caught on camera. this u.p.s. worker tossing dozens of packages from the back of his semitruck. those packages were supposed to be handled with care. like that.

8:16 am
leading to the dramatic scene caught on camera. charging grandma with resisting arrest. >> tasers are not used unless you have someone so disruptive you physically cannot control them. >> reporter: the video launching the debate over if officers are using the tasers too quickly. especially officer mahan. unbelievable video. three other people arrested that afternoon also face resisting arrest charges. none were arrested for drugs. which again, guys, that's the whole reason police went out there in the first place. >> you said she broke her wrist? >> yes. >> disturbing images. thank you. >> could have been worse. she was walking away at the time. >> that's right. all right, thank you. this morning, new clues and optimism in the massive manhunt for a cop killer believed to be hiding out in the woods in pennsylvania. three weeks in, searchers say they have found one of eric frein's campsites.

8:18 am
reenactment, a bunch of guys went autoand -- out and popped off some blanks. >> reporter: that time eventually turning himself in. but for now authorities on high alert. prompting a hunting ban on all public and private land in and around the search area. adam took us deep into the woods of pennsylvania's poconos. to his members-only hunting club. he follows police instructions, checking out the cabin for any signs of frein. gun in hand. >> i think there's going to be a lot of people that, you know, don't take kindly to that and get upset. and, you know, if they don't feel that they're in the immediate danger zone, they're going to probably try to go back to the normal way of life and hunt. that's what they want to do. >> reporter: hunting is wildly popular in this area. and he says the ban adds to an already frustrating situation. >> people are now fed up. they've had enough of living behind the curtains. living in the shadows. and being scared and feared for their life.
