it's an individual with a gun that made a conscious decision to shoot at a police officer. >> reporter: 18-year-old vonderrit myers jr. was killed in a barrage of gunfire. it was by an off-duty police officer. police say this was myers who fired first. three or four shots at the officer. he was wearing a court-ordered ankle bracelet because of a previous gun charge. but the young man's mother doesn't believe police. she says her son's killing was unprovoked. >> he was executed, it was overkill. for nothing. for nothing. >> reporter: the shooting of michael brown sparked a national debate over race and police conduct. ever since, protesters from across the country have been drawn to st. louis where emotions are raw. >> the community has to see the difference in the two cases. they have to realize that, certainly they can talk about the issue, but we ask that they do it peacefully. >> reporter: now, later this morning, a justice for all rally will be held in downtown st. louis. police say they're committed to keeping the streets calm. but that is the key test as they continue to investigate a shooting involving one of their own. paula. >> all right. jeff zeleny, live from

cries for help coming from the jaguar exhibit. discovering the child alone. deep inside the pit with a jaguar at his throat. zoo keepers rushing the exhibit, some blasting fire extinguishers to keep the jaguars at bay while others grabbed the toddler, hoisting him up a ladder to safety. >> we were wondering why, then saw a car go by with a child with his head bleeding. >> reporter: arkansas children's hospital confirming to abc news that the child arrived in critical season. suffering lacerations to the head, a fractured skull and puncture wounds sustained from the bites of the jaguars. authorities say the wounds should not be life-threatening. but the 3-year-old remains in critical condition from the fall. and meanwhile the investigation continues into how this happened. and our

bottom of the situation, though. thank you. a tough new challenge this morning, aimed squarely at the embattled ceo of microsoft. a man under fire for a comment he made about women in the work place. when discussing equal pay, the ceo told a group of women that, wait for it, that not asking for a raise is, quote, good karma. yeah. abc's claire shipman who just wrote a best selling book about women at work, "the confidence code," is here this morning. good morning. >> i don't know if i have good karma. we'll see. satya nadella has only been on the job eight months. what a way to start. the issue of how few women have top jobs or any jobs in the tech world and their compensation is extremely sensitive. his comments will be hard for him to shake. this morning, more backlash after new microsoft ceo satya nadella offered this advice to a room of 8,000 working women. >> it's not really about asking for the raise, but knowing and having faith that the system will actually give you the right raises as you go along. that's good karma. it'll come back. >> reporter: those words sparking global outrage after he spoke thursday at a women's technology conference. the hashtag karma as compensation is taking off. even singer cher calling him misogynist in chief. and feminist author jessica valenti writing, "women don't create change by trusting the system, but by disrupting it." >> this is an invitation to get more involved. to care about their female coworkers. >> referee: in an e-mail to microsoft employees just hours after the event, nadella said he was wrong. adding i believe women should get equal pay for equal work. but silicon valley entrepreneur is challenging him to create a new normal right away. in an open letter in "time" magazine, merchant suggests tomorrow you re-level and compensate every woman on the same pay scale as your men. that would change the industry. and you have it within your powers to do it. >> i think he needs to put his money where his mouth is. check to see what your female employees are getting paid. how does that stack up to the male employees in the company? is there a disparity? and if there is a disparity, look. create a task force, create a committee. see what the problem is. >> referee: now nadella may not have implied or meant to say that women shouldn't be paid equally. the problem is the data doesn't support his notion if women don't ask they will be paid the same as men. it was smart to apologize right away, and if he can do something meaningful about this right away, he'll come out looking good and it will be better for everyone. >> and the issue of asking for a raise goes to the heart of the book you wrote called "the confidence code," which i recommend to everybody. >> thank you. >> that it is really important for women in the work place. it's a huge issue. >> it is a huge issue. it's not easy for us to do, but karma is not going to help us on this one, i think. >> thank you. >> we could go on and on. now to new details about the deadly enterovirus, that respiratory illness spreading to children in 46 states now. we have been reporting it could be the culprit in some kids that

wrong. >> she was just about to get dozed off, and she said, mommy, my hands are going numb. on the third day she lost movement from her legs down. >> reporter: at first, they thought she simply had a cold. but it was ev-d 68, the deadly respiratory illness infecting children across the country. >> her blinks are -- she'll blink her eye for yes and she won't blink for no. >> referee: according to the center for disease control, at least 691 people in 46 states have contracted a respiratory illness caused by the enterovirus since mid-august. at least two dozen patients in seven states suffering from paralysis. most alarming for parents, the virus seems to strike from nowhere. 4-year-old eli wahler, a triplet was the fifth enterovirus fatality. he went to sleep september 24th and never woke up. friday his parents speaking out. >> i mean, my heart is broken. i'm determined to make something good out of this tragedy. >> reporter: as kim nichols continues to pray, her doctors say there is hope. >> i think a long, slow rehabilitation. but i think there will be recovery. >> reporter: some hope there from her doctors. while there is no vaccine for this virus, kids are recovering. children, particularly those with asthma, are the most susceptible. to keep safe, the advice is really to do the same things we hear about each flu season. wash those little hands. encourage kids to cough or sneeze into a tissue, not their hands. and as mild flu symptoms get worse, difficulty breathing or wheezing, see your pediatrician. paula, dan. >> thank you. moving on now, police are looking

stepping forward. >> hope someone is able to recognize the ticket purchaser. >> reporter: in december of 2011, two hours before the winning ticket was about to expire, a new york lawyer named crawford shaw came forward claiming the prize on behalf of hexham investments. refusing to tell lotto officials where he got the ticket, who bought it, and where it had been. >> ultimately the entire jackpot was forfeited. >> reporter: it was the largest ever relinquished. sparking a criminal investigation. >> every time a prize is claimed, that raised red flags and that's what worked in this process. >> reporter: their investigation running cold and the clock ticking. with some of the fraud charges expiring in two months. now lottery officials hope someone will recognize the man. he bought the now-expired ticket. for "good morning america," aditi roy, abc news, san francisco. now back to the wedding crashers story. >> that's right. a thief crashing a wedding party. a thief stealing a gift box filled with checks and a whole lot of cash. sara has more on this cold case. >> whenever i hear the term wedding crashers, it's a funny reference to someone who steals a couple of dances, maybe some drinks. in real life, crashers are criminals who walk out with much more than food. it's a glamorous gig in the movies, crashing weddings for the dinners, desserts and all those drinks. but this
