And we do say good morning, america. What an incredible story. You can do everything anything. Anything at all with this. Good to have you back, michael. Still working that vacation. Still working my vacation cut. Its good. Its time to go to work. Welcome back, mike. We have a lot to get to this morning starting with that execution of another american journalist. Authorities confirm overnight that video is Steven Sotloff being murdered by an isis militant. Abcs brian ross is here with the latest. Reporter good morning. As you say u. S. Authorities have confirmed the gruesome video is authentic as president obama vowed that isis will pay the price for the murder of a second american journalist. The president delivered fighting words this morning as he said isis will achieve nothing by the barbaric murders of Steven Sotloff and james foley. We will not be intimidated. Their horrific acts only unite us as a country and stiffen our resolve to take the fight against these terrorists. Reporter u. S. Officials say sotloff never had a chance in the hands of the brutal isis Group Despite an emotional plea for mercy from his mother. I ask you to please release my child. Reporter british authorities this morning said the hooded executioner appears to be the same british accented speaker who two weeks ago beheaded journalist james foley. Investigators are already comparing the voices from the two isis videos along with an analysis of the desert setting, the speakers use of his left hand to hold the knife and his eyes. Earlier u. S. Facial recognition experts had created this li likeness from an examination of the eyes and the president this morning vowed to find whoever was responsible. And those who make the mistake of harming americans will learn that we will not forget and that our reach is long and that justice will be served. Reporter at the end of the sotloff video isis produced yet another western hostage, identified as a british citizen named david haynes threatening to do the same to him and u. S. Officials say there are at least two more americans being held by isis, two young aid workers who had gone to syria to help civilians caught in the middle of the strife. Thanks. The rest of our team, Martha Raddatz in washington, jon karl traveling with the president and, jon, let me begin with you. In those remarks, the president laid out a bold goal and said the bottom line the u. S. Goal is to degrade and destroy isis as a threat. Reporter thats right, george. Very definitively this is beyond where hes gone but there seemed to be a mixed message. When he was asked to clarify if he was now saying the u. S. Wants to destroy isis, he backtracked significantly saying we can continue to shrink isis sphere of influence to the point where it is a manageable problem. So in the course of one set of remarks, he went from talking about destroying this terrorist group to making it into a manageable problem. Martha raddatz, so many believe you can only take on isis if you go into syria but the president making very clear today that he is not going to move forward with a dramatic expansion without a broad coalition. Reporter one of the things you heard the president say again this morning the need to build that regional coalition, but the key really is syria and it is hard to see how the u. S. Does not eventually launch air strikes there, given what the president said today, even though as jon says there was a bit of a mixed message but the chairman of the joint steves of staff has said in order to defeat isis, you have deal with the situation in syria. That is where isis has a safe haven right now. That is where military options are being presented to the president even though he has not made a final decision. And, martha, we also learned overnight that the United States is sending 350 new troops to iraq. Reporter the extra 350 u. S. Forces are being sent for additional security at the embassy and the airport. But this tells you there is increasing worry that isis is intent on going after americans and they want to make sure embassy employees are safe or can get out of there if needed, george. Jon, part of the reason the president is pushing back against russian aggression in the ukraine, theres conflicting reports about a ceasefire. Reporter a statement out of the president of ukraines office suggesting theyve worked out a ceasefire with the russians but a denial from Vladimir Putins office and the president was directly asked about this and said its simply too early to tell but not a lot of confidence in this. The president himself pointed out that previous talk of ceasefire has failed because the russians have violated or p pretended they have nothing to do can with whats going on in ukraine. Thanks very much. To a desperate manhunt for a gunman who went on a shooting rampage in kansas city killing three people and critically injuring two others. Abcs ryan smith is here and has the latest for us. Reporter good morning. Police looking for any tips from the public after a triple homicide locked down an entire town and shook residents to their core. This morning, a massive manhunt after a day of murder and chaos in this quiet kansas city neighborhood. Just looked like mayhem. Reporter it started shortly before 1 00 p. M. When police found one person deadout side a home. Inside, two critically injured. Concerned about more Victims Police knocked on doors breaking into houses where no one was home. They found two more dead and one injured. This is a huge crime scene. I cant imagine anyone wanting to do them harm. Reporter authorities arent sure of a motive but the entire town was put on lockdown including area schools. Hes gonna be armed with a shotgun possibly. We are very concerned. We want people to be safe. We want them to feel safe in their neighborhoods. Reporter Police Believe this suv which belonged to one of the shooting victims could be the getaway vehicle. It was parked four blocks from a motel 6 where three people from the motel reported being physically assaulted two hours after the manhunt began and knbc reporting that Police Detained a person of interest in that case. He was apprehended on foot but it is not clear if that person of interest and the triple homicides are linked. And police saying the gun found on the Motel Assault and attempted charge acting crime suspect will be one of the many pieces of evidence they use to see if theres a link.

Well, that mom and her kids are now speaking out for the very first time in an abc news news exclusive and our Deborah Roberts is here with the story. Good morning. Hi, Oriana Ferrell says she still hasnt been able to bring herself to watch that wellknown video thats gone viral. It shows her in what you say was a routine traffic stop last october in a frightening confrontation with highway police. Im feeling complete and utter fear. Reporter its the dash cam video seen nearly everywhere. A traffic stop gone horribly wrong. Its a day Oriana Ferrell and her children say they will never forget. I started feeling very unsafe. I thought this guy is almost creating things to maybe create a ticket. Reporter in her First Television ticket, ferrell says she was terrified during those harrowing moments when officers wrestled her out of her minivan on this new mexico highway and shot at it as she drove away with her kids inside. I was feeling more and more unsafe. I started thinking about children who have been fought, families who have been shot. Started thinking about trayvon mart martin. Reporter she says when he walks away from the car without giving her the ticket she drives away as soon as she isnt giving one. He gave me my license back. Think its over, started putting out slowly.

Reporter tries to pull at the re out of the car as her children scream. Were you thinking at all that maybe hes angry because i pulled away. Never thought it because i never thought i pulled away. Reporter she says her confusion gave way to fear when the officer tries arresting her. Thinking his mom is in danger 15yearold seek gets out of the car. He had his hands on her and that wasnt really okay to me. Reporter some kids at that point would have been terrified but you jumped right out. Its kind of my job. Reporter mopes later backup arrives. Open the door. Open the door. [ screaming ] reporter a shaken ferrell speeds away. Officer Elias Montoya fires three shots unaware of who is in the car. It was the most horrifying moment of my life. Reporter no one was hurt but ferrell says theres a lesson to be learned. Even if i was speeding that doesnt require being shot at at any point. Even if he thought i drove off, that didnt deserve us being shot at. This is a thorny legal case thats far from over. Officer montoya who fired those shots was actually fired from the department but hes appealing that decision. As for ferrell her lawyers say the charges against her will likely be dropped but they are awaiting that decision. Meantime, shes still living in them until with her children while they sort out the legal issues surround this case. Very frightening but probably more details to come once this is all ironed out.

School was coming out and i seen a student cross in between the cars there and i said, where is the crossing guard . I said, oh, my god, we need one so i looked and we didnt have one so this past monday was first day for school and it came heavy on my heart that i need to go down there to see if there is a crossing guard and if theres not a crossing guard then i need to stand in and do it myself until we work this out. What do the kids say when they see you in the morning . Do they check out speaking of heart, you have a big heart, also you have a purple heart. Do they check out your purple heart and ask you a lot of questions . Oh, yes, sir, they do. Usually i help them across and they step lively, though, but theyll say good morning to me. Theyll say thank you for serving. And theyll ask me a little about my medals but got a lot of fingerprints on now because they like to touch it but thats okay. I can work that out. Get your polish out. Keep it polished up for the kids. Yes. And, you know, when you first came back from vietnam there were a lot of people didnt take too kindly to soldiers in uniform. How is the response now . S its remarkable now. Like when we first came home it was really, you know, hard to put on a uniform because of what was going on. But today always have something veteran on like a vest which says marine corps on it, vietnam, and a lot of ones will come up and say, thank you, sir, for serving and if its a marine they will say semper fi and its not bad to put on anything military now.

Doesnt it, the wind behind the front cooled us and temperatures, for philadelphia, say, more like the upper 0s and much less human. Now looking at that Severe Weather threat for today. Because that storm kind of dropping out of the Northern Rockies into the plains, northern plain, parts of wisconsin all on alert. Minneapolis, youre in there too later this afternoon and evening youll have to be on the thanks a lot, ginger, david murphy here with an update from accuweather. Weve got thin clouds and sun showing through. Its so much more comfortable today. Temperatures in the 70s in most spots. This afternoon very warm, 88 degrees but not nearly as [ cheers and applause ] all that weather brought to you by bp. Ive been seeing this all day. I like your cuff. I first saw these a awe weeks ago on my 9yearold kate at the pool. So cool. This is the hottest new accessory just hitting stores, the latest must have for fashion forward celebs. This is the look of gorgeous metallic jewelry in a stat too. Sara haines, please explain this fabulous trend. Some people have heard them called body blings. Temporary jewelry tattoos and theyre flash tats and even beyonce was spotted wearing them showing them on her arms. Good enough for queen bey, good enough for me. These mesmerizing metallics bring a new meaning to arm candy. People are in awe when they see you walking down the street with them on your wrist. She now played with the look a few seasons back but these gems are now hitting stores and a stickon staple for Sarah Jessica parker who instagrammed her latest look. Lulu dk sells her own at bloomingdales. Is there theres a di yichlt element how how to apply them and make them whatever you want. Its really simple. Apply with water and a cotton ball and its on your skin and cut it however you want to cut it. I like to wear them as bracelets. Its like the tattoo you can show your mom and dad. Exactly. Reporter they can last anywhere from four to six days and you can shower and, yes, go to the gym and get your sweat on but can my new glam look really translate from work to play . I enlisted the help of Good Housekeeping style editor lori bergamotty. Seriously, ladies. Wheres the party. Incredible. You cant be afraid to add to what you already have on the tattoo so what we did is give you two bangles and put shine, sparkle in there. Reporter and the office, a flowy skirt and fitted blouse. I have tattoos on. Is this really going to be okay . Absolutely. I think so, right . Whats great about the tattoos whether you work in an office thats very quiet and you dont want to jingle when you go down the hallways this could be a great substitute. Reporter you can even rock casual. The fact you can get three or four uses out of them and feel like im really on trend today and, you know, whether or not youre on trend in six month, who cares. You look darned good the time in between. And you can see how easy they are. We finished amys up and have ginger. This is the one Sarah Jessica parker was carrying so with just a little bit of water, you can have them on for days and if you just take a little rubbing alcohol they come right off. They do and you dont jingle when you walk as you know in the piece. No jingling. If you travel you dont have to worry about anything being taken. Try taking these bad boys off. Thank you for sharing that with us. We want to share this with you. Darius rucker, Little Big Town here live to reveal the nominees for cma. [ cheers and applause ] our dads a plumber.
