[Blackwell:] Our Susan Candiotti joins us now live from Everett. Susan, what do we know about the shooters relationship with his cousins? I mean, initially when we learned that these were friends, it was horrible enough, but this is now family. Any clues yet to the motive behind this tragedy?
[Susan Candiotti, Cnn National Correspondent:] Good morning, Victor. The grandfather of the cousins, who were injured in this says, yes, indeed, they were related to the shooter and that they were all very close. That they hung out together. They lived close by. They even went to a school dance recently in which the suspected shooter, Jaylen Fryberg, was named the homecoming prince. The grandfather can't explain what happened. He says he forgives the shooter for what happened and eventually would like to meet with his family. As for the motive, if authorities know what happened here, they're not saying. Might it have had something to do with a reported recent breakup with a girlfriend or a suspension from school? We simply don't know at this time. In the meantime, at the school, students were allowed to return on Saturday. They left flowers on the fence there and they were permitted to go inside the school and their classrooms to retrieve their belongings. The community is still reeling from what happened here and still trying to make sense of it with their families. I spoke with the mayor about that.
[Mayor Jon Nehring, Marysville, Washington:] I put my arms around them and hug them because, you know, I hadn't done that on their way out the door to school that day. I think, you know, you have families that their kids aren't coming home. And that's what comes through your mind. You just want to love on them and hug them. One of the things is to say, if you need something to talk about, don't hold it in. Talk to us about it.
[Candiotti:] And at this time, police have not yet officially released the name of the shooter or the teenage girl who was killed.
[Kosik:] Susan, it's Alison. A new teacher at the school we're hearing is being hailed a hero in all this. She apparently attempted to stop the shooter. Do you know about that?
[Candiotti:] Yes, the police have said that that's what happened although they're not releasing any more details about that. We have reached out to the teacher that they mention, but she said she didn't want to talk about it at this time, and in fact, even tweeted about that. So we'll have to wait and get more details on that, but according to police, she did apparently try to stop him at one point.
[Kosik:] OK. Susan Candiotti, thanks.
[Blackwell:] All right, Susan, let's get to the morning read now because there is a lot going on this morning. A nurse who is being held in quarantine in New Jersey says, she was left in isolation for hours when she arrived at Newark Liberty International Airport. Writing in the "Dallas Morning News," Casey Hickcocks says she is scared about how other health care workers, who return to the U.S. after caring for Ebola patients in West Africa will be treated.
[Kosik:] Officials in New York, New Jersey and Illinois say, they are trying to protect public health. The "New York Times" is reporting that western ISIS captives are tortured before being beheaded. American James Foley, the first western hostage to be beheaded by ISIS on camera had been singled out for particularly harsh treatment. The "Times" says they compiled the information by interviewing five former hostages, local witnesses and colleagues of the detainees.
[Blackwell:] In politics, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is slamming the level spending by outside groups in this year's race for Senate in North Carolina. She was in the state campaigning for Democratic Senator Kay Hagan. So far campaigns and outside groups have spent close to $80 million on that contest.
[Kosik:] In sports, the Giants rallied from behind last night to even up the World Series at two games apiece. The Kansas City Royals jumped to an early lead in San Francisco. But the Giants offense rallied in the sixth eventually blowing out the Royals 11-4. Game five kicks off tonight at 8:00.
[Blackwell:] And up to 50 homes in Hawaii are preparing for the possibility of forced evacuations because of this, lava from a volcano that is heading their way. Hawaii's governor has already asked for a presidential disaster declaration. This lava is 2,000 degrees. It threatens to destroy roads, homes, schools, anything in its path. And stunning pictures of massive flooding ripping through the streets of Athens, Greece, sweeping away look at this. Hundreds of cars like this. As bad as it looks, it may get worse. And later, question, hero or villain? Critics are lashing out at the New York doctor with Ebola for mingling in public after returning from the hot zone in West Africa.
