BALDWIN: A Washington state school teacher is being hailed a hero today because of the bravery she exhibited during last Friday's deadly school shooting. There may have been more young victims but for the bold actions of this young teacher, Megan Silberberger. Witnesses say she ran towards the gunman.</s>ERICK CERVANTES, STUDENT: She like grabbed his arm, and got a hand on him. It happened like in seconds.</s>BALDWIN: CNN correspondent Dan Simon is live for us in Marysville in Washington State with more on her bravery. Dan, what can you tell us?</s>DAN SIMON, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Well, hi, Brooke. We will talk about her in a minute. But, first, I just want to show you this extraordinary scene here in front of the school. Look at these expressions of goodwill. I would say about 100 yards, this fence has just been turned into a makeshift memorial with so many people dropping off flowers and balloons. It's really been growing by the minute, but a lot of goodwill bestowed upon this teacher today, Megan Silberberger. You mentioned her name. She was in a room near the cafeteria, heard the gunshots and then ran towards the gunfire. She saw some students who were down and then she actually confronted the gunman in some fashion. She actually put her hand on his arm and then moments later, of course, the gunman took his own life. We don't know if her actions may have changed the outcome in any way, but certainly very brave action indeed, Brooke.</s>BALDWIN: Dan Simon, thank you so much in Marysville, Washington State. I appreciate it. Public health officials, they are not the only ones having a hard time with the response to Ebola. Politicians are ordering quarantines and then maybe walking that back, while critics say the president's Ebola czar has been MIA. We will talk to our political panel about that coming up. And an American fighting against ISIS knows what the Kurds are up against, waging war with no armor and wearing sneakers, what he calls combat Adidas -- that story coming up.
