And it is considered highly lethal and not ever supposed to happen and safeguards are supposed to be in place. And jim sciutto joins me with the latest. What do we know about the mistake. It is an almost inexplicable failure. Four workers have put under post exposure theemt to anthrax. This does show the level of concern it. Was a site in maryland that tested the sample and found out it was live and raised at letter for the eight other states. But a foreign base in korea and stated the remaining samples in utah and they were live to all of the samples were live and it is a breach in regard to danger samples like this are. So is there any risk to the general public because of this . There is a protocol for live samples and these were believed not to be live and the protocol they were shipped under that there is no risk to be a risk to the public but this is raising questions at the highest levels of the pentagon and there is an investigation under way to see how this happened. Thanks. A

We can tell you he was making threats to Police Officers on a level of alarm sufficient that authorities decided that they were going to question him today. So they moved in he was standing at a cvs and they approached him and the fbi chief said there was no arrest warrant or intension to arrest him and very surprised by his response and reaction when he took out the knife and came at both an fbi agent and a police officer. They repeatedly ordered him to drop the knife and he refused to do that and when they felt they were in danger that is when they opened fire. All of that was under investigation and it is unclear why he had the knife. And it was a sizable knife. And it was it inside it looks like it was on the outside. It was on the outside. And it is possible there could be video. Not only is there video, it is going to b
The cyclone has grounded air searches for day two. The blue fin 21 continues the search. Today the underwater drone wraps up its tenth mission. Its days could now be limited. It has scanned more than 80 of its intended search area. I know they are calling this mysterious metal object serious. What could this mean for the search . What we know right now is that this object is in the custody of the australian police. They are not elaborating any further because they say this is part of a federal investigation but they are in touch with the authorities and also the manufacturers of the plane to determine whether this is, in fact, a piece of that mh 370. We also know pictures of that object have been sent to the australian transport safety board. Also the australians said they sent pictures to the malaysian authorities as well but when the malaysians were asked about it they say they havent received any photographs so far and everything that has been found so far in the indian ocean in rel

To the entire world. Reporter a big jump, though, this talk now about how to contain and ultimately and defeat isis as the lives of other american hostages hang in the balance, from january, when president obama referred to such groups in an interview as a jv team when compared to al qaeda. Would you still agree with his assessment of a few months ago . As theyve become better funded through various funding streams including what theyre able to sell in terms of oil and gas, the ransomes theyve been able to obtain, and that has developed their capacity in a way that has increased the threat and they pose a greater threat today than they did six months ago and were taking it very seriously. Reporter the administration does agree, though, that isis is still mainly involved in regional operations, not the 911level planning of al qaeda and today a bulletin was sent out to Law Enforcement across america saying, there is no credible Homeland Security threat linked to isis, but warns, isis is
