Woman Sues NECC Over Injections; Titans Beat Steelers; Shuttle Endeavour On Parade
BERMAN: Welcome back to STARTING POINT. A few stories to tell you about. U.S. officials say agents along the U.S.-Mexican border were assaulted with rocks after they observed suspects dropping drugs into Arizona. An agent opened fire and apparently struck one of the suspects. Mexico claims that teenager was killed. A Minnesota woman who says she was infected with a potentially tainted steroid injections is now suing NECC, the company at the center of the fungal meningitis outbreak. The nationwide death toll has claimed to 14 in this outbreak, 170 people who received the steroid injection are now infected. The CDC also says 14,000 people may have received tainted injections. Now, the debate and the baseball playoffs maybe you forgot there was football last night. I sure missed it. The Tennessee Titans kicked a field goal late as time expired to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers. Here it is, through the uprights. They win, 26-23 -- Soledad.</s>O'BRIEN, CNN ANCHOR: Good shot. All right, John, thank you. Well, after flying 25 missions in space, the shuttle Endeavour is taking a go-slow approach for mission number 26. It's a trip to its retirement home at the California Science Center. You're looking at live pictures there. Endeavour is going to enjoy one long victory lap through the streets of L.A. for the rest of the day and then also into tomorrow. CNN's John Zarrella is watching it for us. He is live for us in Los Angeles this morning. God that is such a great shot, I think it's a nice thing that they're going to take it slow. Good morning.</s>JOHN ZARRELLA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Yes, well, they don't have a choice, but to take it slow through the streets. And you're absolutely right. Can you imagine, 25 flights, flying 17,500 miles an hour, repairing satellites, fixing the Hubble Space telescope, flying to the space station, and this may be the most memorable journey that any space shuttle has ever made. It left Los Angeles International Airport a couple of hours ago, passed right by our location there. Being towed on a transporter and making the narrow turns through the streets of Los Angeles. We expect it to be here momentarily, Soledad, in the area behind me here is another staging area where the space shuttle Endeavour is going to sit for about seven, eight, nine hours where they reconfigure it onto another platform. You know, tonight, later tonight, they're actually going to hook it up to a Toyota truck to tow it across the 405 Expressway. We talked to the Toyota people and they said that's because they have a 20-year history with the science museum. And we asked them if they were going to make a commercial out of this? They said well maybe. You think, Soledad, they're going to make a commercial out of these? You bet they will.</s>O'BRIEN: Let me think about that for a minute. John Zarrella for us this morning, thank you, John. Appreciate it.</s>ZARRELLA: Sure.</s>O'BRIEN: Still ahead on STARTING POINT, we gave you some Democratic reaction to last night's debate. Up next we're going to hear the Republican side. Senator Ron Johnson will be my guest. Also Michael Vick's dog days may not be over. We'll tell you what he's saying now. Back in just a moment. You're watching STARTING POINT.
