with the spca conducting this investigation. what we know right now is that police were called out here around 11:00 last night. no one was inside this home, but they did find several pitbulls inside after obtaining a search warrant. you are seeing video of that right now of those dogs as they were in these two vans that are parked right out front. we're told about five adult pit w bulls along with eight puppies were found inside this house and several scarred and apparently used for fighting. one was missing an eye and the vets will be examining the dogs inside this house. some were chained to radiators and blood found and we, again, just spoke with spokesperson a few moments ago. here's what he explained what was found. >> these animals used for this type of activity. i'm just glad we were able to rescue these and, you know, each place you go to just saves

another dog from a fighting ring. >> and we'll come back out here live right now. you can see that police and the spca continue to remove evidence from this house and we also saw two treadmills being removed just a short time ago and just to be clear here, they say they believe that breeding and training was going on in this house, but it's still unclear if fighting was actually happening here. a couple people are being looked at as far as the investigation. they do believe that the owner of this property is at work. so, again, some suspects are in question here, but they do believe that this breeding and training has been going on in this house here for about a couple of years. so, we're going to stay out here and gather more information and try to talk to some of the neighbors about what is going on. for now live in philadelphia, matt delucia, nbc 10 news. the lawyer for a nurse who was forced into quarantine in

ebola symptoms. if buck does get a positive ebola patient, that procedure is to transport the patient to the closest hospital, then isolate them inside the hospital. health department director says they rely on information from the airports about travelers arriving here from west africa. so far, he says, it's working. but there is concern that potential patients could slip through the cracks. >> someone is coming here purposely to overstay a visa or whatever the situation may be, they may give false information to the airport and difficult to track them down. so, nothing is totally fail-safe. >> now, so far the three people bogue monitored here in bucks county have complied and they have reported back to the health department, but there is concern that if someone chooses not to report to the health department, then a nurse would likely have to go to that person's home or wherever they're staying and the health director department says he's not comfortable with that because of possible safety concerns. they're still looking into details on how they would work
