00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:07.799
<v Speaker 1>Fifty two degrees in cloudy in Boston at eleven o'clock.

2
00:00:07.839 --> 00:00:11.119
<v Speaker 1>Good Sunday morning. Thanks for being with us. I'm Sherry Small.

3
00:00:11.160 --> 00:00:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Here's what's happening. Firefighters continue to battle an eighth alarm

4
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:19.640
<v Speaker 1>fire in Boston. At a press conference, fire officials saying

5
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:22.399
<v Speaker 1>there was no one inside the building when that fire

6
00:00:22.480 --> 00:00:26.399
<v Speaker 1>broke out at sixty five Gerrard Street in Roxbury. Roughly

7
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:30.199
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and fifty firefighters have responded to the scene

8
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:32.320
<v Speaker 1>that they've been ordered out of the building and are

9
00:00:32.359 --> 00:00:35.119
<v Speaker 1>now trying to knock it down from the exterior only.

10
00:00:35.719 --> 00:00:39.280
<v Speaker 1>They believe construction materials inside the building are helping to

11
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:42.280
<v Speaker 1>fuel the flames, and a collapse zone has been set

12
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:45.200
<v Speaker 1>up on all sides. They are asking people to avoid

13
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:48.719
<v Speaker 1>the area if at all possible, and are reminding nearby

14
00:00:48.799 --> 00:00:51.520
<v Speaker 1>residents in the area to keep their windows and doors

15
00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:53.920
<v Speaker 1>closed to keep the smoke out. Keep it here for

16
00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:56.640
<v Speaker 1>the very latest updates as we continue to follow this

17
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 1>developing story, or you can catch us streaming with a

18
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.840
<v Speaker 1>new iHeart radio app. All Right, The iconic Saint Patrick's

19
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:05.719
<v Speaker 1>Day Parade through South Boston steps off in just about

20
00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:08.560
<v Speaker 1>thirty minutes at eleven thirty. That's an hour and a

21
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:11.959
<v Speaker 1>half earlier than usual. The time change do in part

22
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:14.400
<v Speaker 1>to a push from Boston City Councilor At Flynn to

23
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:15.840
<v Speaker 1>crack down on public drinking.

24
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:24.760
<v Speaker 2>This parade is about respecting our veterans, respecting our military families.

25
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.319
<v Speaker 2>If you can't come to South Boston and behave, don't come.

26
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.519
<v Speaker 3>That is the message from Boston City Councilor Ed Flynn,

27
00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:34.799
<v Speaker 3>who says his office was flooded with hundreds of calls

28
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:37.239
<v Speaker 3>after last year Saint Patrick's Day parade.

29
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:39.439
<v Speaker 2>It was pretty bad last year, and we all have

30
00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:42.280
<v Speaker 2>seen the videos of the violence that took place up

31
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:46.400
<v Speaker 2>at Metal Ivana packing and other places, and the level

32
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:48.319
<v Speaker 2>of public drinking was excessive.

33
00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:51.079
<v Speaker 3>Flynn just one of a number of local, state, and

34
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:54.239
<v Speaker 3>federal leaders signing on to a letter to area colleges

35
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:58.560
<v Speaker 3>and schools saying college and underage kids contributed to public drinking,

36
00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:02.560
<v Speaker 3>disturbing incidents of islands and assault, along with beer cans

37
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:05.159
<v Speaker 3>thrown at parade marchers and public urination.

38
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>And that CBS News Boston's Brandon Truett reporting there, all right,

39
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:12.319
<v Speaker 1>Saint Patrick's Day is a big day for drinking. So

40
00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Boston police are reminding people to keep their drinks close

41
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:19.280
<v Speaker 1>because of a danger from so called Roofe's, the colorless,

42
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:23.199
<v Speaker 1>odorless and tasteless date rape drug. Now there are drink

43
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:26.639
<v Speaker 1>testing tools out, including nail polish that changes color when

44
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:30.240
<v Speaker 1>a drink is drugged. The best advice if you feel dizzy, nauseous,

45
00:02:30.280 --> 00:02:32.840
<v Speaker 1>or light head to get help and never leave your

46
00:02:32.919 --> 00:02:34.080
<v Speaker 1>drink unattended.

47
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 4>All right.

48
00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:40.400
<v Speaker 1>Astronaut Sunny Williams of Needham is expected to finally come

49
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:41.199
<v Speaker 1>back to Earth this week.

50
00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:44.680
<v Speaker 5>SpaceX capsule arrives at the International Space Station in it

51
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:46.759

58
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:05.479
<v Speaker 5>launched on Boeing's first astronaut flight last June. The newcomers

59
00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 5>will spend the next few days learning the station's ins

60
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:10.319
<v Speaker 5>and outs. Whether permitting, the capsule should undock from the

85
00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:29.800

86
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:33.360
<v Speaker 7>I want them to know that Massachusetts remains committed to

87
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:36.959
<v Speaker 7>that relationship, and I want to continue to find ways

88
00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:42.680
<v Speaker 7>to support trade between Canada and New England and Massachusetts, specifically.

89
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:46.560
<v Speaker 6>US Canadian relations freed lately by President Donald Trump's tariffs

90
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:51.040
<v Speaker 6>on imports from Canada and the president's talk of annexing Canada.

91
00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:54.480
<v Speaker 7>It's okay to read one another about hockey games, but

92
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:57.399
<v Speaker 7>this kind of talked about a fifty first state, and

93
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 7>you know, tariffs, it's just it's a it's nonsense. Really,

94
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:04.240
<v Speaker 7>you know, that's no way to treat an ally and

95
00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:08.519
<v Speaker 7>our largest trading partner. So I hope common sense and

96
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:10.240
<v Speaker 7>a cooler head prevails there.
