00:00:01.159 --> 00:00:09.439
<v Speaker 1>This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local news. Lots

2
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:12.199
<v Speaker 1>of sun, of beautiful breeze out there in Boston right now,

3
00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:16.600
<v Speaker 1>sixty four degrees. It's eleven o'clock. Good morning. I'm Nicole Davis,

4
00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:19.480
<v Speaker 1>and here's what's happening. Starting in Debtim at the Karen

5
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:22.440
<v Speaker 1>Reid retrial for the third day. The defense has State

6
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:25.640
<v Speaker 1>Police Sergeant you'ur E Buchanic on the stand right now.

7
00:00:25.679 --> 00:00:29.199
<v Speaker 1>He is reciting derogatory text messages sent by fired trooper

8
00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:34.119
<v Speaker 1>Michael Proctor. Buchanic was Proctor's supervisor. The text messages were

9
00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:37.039
<v Speaker 1>sent in a group chat that Buchanic was in. Defense

10
00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:40.240
<v Speaker 1>is questioning why he did not intervene. At leven oh one,

11
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:43.960
<v Speaker 1>we're watching developing news overseas. The family of the last

12
00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:49.200
<v Speaker 1>surviving Israeli American hostage, Eadon Alexander is eagerly awaiting as

13
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Hama says, he will be released sometime soon, potentially in

14
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:55.880
<v Speaker 1>the next few hours. Your CBS is Ramy and Assensia.

15
00:00:55.960 --> 00:00:58.640
<v Speaker 2>This family released a statement of joy. They got the

16
00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:02.359
<v Speaker 2>news yesterday that was Mother's Day. They said, Today, on

17
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:05.879
<v Speaker 2>Mother's Day, we received the greatest gift, imaginable news that

18
00:01:05.959 --> 00:01:10.040
<v Speaker 2>our son dan Is returning home after nearly six hundred days.

19
00:01:10.200 --> 00:01:13.640
<v Speaker 2>They thanked President Trump, but then again demanded their own government,

20
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:16.959
<v Speaker 2>the Israeli government, get all of those hostages home, living

21
00:01:17.079 --> 00:01:19.760
<v Speaker 2>and dead. They are believed to be fifty nine and

22
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:20.480
<v Speaker 2>in total.

23
00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Hamas did agree to release Alexander in the hopes of

24
00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:26.879
<v Speaker 1>securing a cease fire deal. Alexander's parents flying from New

25
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.239
<v Speaker 1>Jersey over to Israel to greet him and President Trump

26
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:32.599
<v Speaker 1>at the White House today signing a new executive order,

27
00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:35.359
<v Speaker 1>he says, we'll lower the cost of prescription drugs. The

28
00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:38.120
<v Speaker 1>order sets a thirty day deadline to get the costs down.

29
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:41.439
<v Speaker 1>It also calls on HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy Junior to

30
00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:44.239
<v Speaker 1>broker a deal. If a deal is not reached by

31
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:46.280
<v Speaker 1>the deadline, that's when a new rule would kick in,

32
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:49.159
<v Speaker 1>tying the price of what the US pays for medications

33
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:51.519
<v Speaker 1>to lower prices paid by other countries.

34
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:52.040
<v Speaker 3>Now.

35
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:54.439
<v Speaker 1>The President tried to institute a similar order during his

36
00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:56.719
<v Speaker 1>first term, but that was blocked by the courts when

37
00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:00.239
<v Speaker 1>the pharmaceutical lobbies pushed back. Some prescription drug prices were

38
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:03.439
<v Speaker 1>lowered during the last administration. The Biden administration, with the

39
00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:07.079
<v Speaker 1>passage of the Inflation Reduction Act that allowed Medicare to

40
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:11.199
<v Speaker 1>negotiate lower prices for certain drugs. Wall Street happy today

41
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:13.400
<v Speaker 1>is the US and China make a giant leap toward

42
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:14.919
<v Speaker 1>ending their ongoing trade war.

43
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:18.680
<v Speaker 4>Under this agreement, the US would drop its tariff down

44
00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:22.479
<v Speaker 4>to thirty percent and China would lower its rate to

45
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:26.080
<v Speaker 4>ten percent. And this, of course will come as welcome

46
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:30.520
<v Speaker 4>news to many US companies who had suspended orders from

47
00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:34.240
<v Speaker 4>China and shipments to West Coast ports had been slowing

48
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:37.319
<v Speaker 4>dramatically over the past few weeks.

49
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:41.240
<v Speaker 1>BBS Kaitlyn Huey burns there. Chinese officials say the two

50
00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:44.680
<v Speaker 1>sides agree to what they call a trade consultation mechanism.

51
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Treasury Secretary Scott Assent says more details will be coming

52
00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:51.199
<v Speaker 1>later on today on that potential deal. Dal Jones up

53
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.759
<v Speaker 1>almost one thousand points, Nastack up more than three and

54
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:57.120
<v Speaker 1>a half percent. And what a gorgeous day it is

55
00:02:57.199 --> 00:03:00.719
<v Speaker 1>out there right now. We're seeing sunny skies across the Commonwealth,

56
00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Temperatures in the mid to i'd say mid to upper

57
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:05.719
<v Speaker 1>sixties at this point, getting up to the low to

58
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:09.120
<v Speaker 1>mid seventies today, little breeze out there from the south

59
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:11.560
<v Speaker 1>right now about fifteen miles an hour, so it's kind

60
00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:13.800
<v Speaker 1>of moving the trees around a little bit, not enough

61
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:15.879
<v Speaker 1>to really blow the car around on the road, but

62
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:19.199
<v Speaker 1>kind of nice if you're outside walking around now. Later

63
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:21.840
<v Speaker 1>on tonight we will have clear to partly cloudy skies,

64
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:23.960
<v Speaker 1>low in the mid fifties on the coast and in

65
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:26.919
<v Speaker 1>Boston a little bit cooler if you're inland, forty eight

66
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.360
<v Speaker 1>to fifty or so. Then for tomorrow we start to

67
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.319
<v Speaker 1>see some more clouds move in and the breeze will

68
00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:33.479
<v Speaker 1>kick up a bit. Still plenty of sun though, with

69
00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:35.840
<v Speaker 1>a high in the low sixties on the coast, close

70
00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:38.919
<v Speaker 1>to seventy inland. If you're Wednesday, rather cloudy with a

71
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:42.439
<v Speaker 1>high in the mid sixties, low seventies inland, and Thursday

72
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:45.039
<v Speaker 1>mostly cloudy with a couple of showers moving through and

73
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:48.199
<v Speaker 1>high in the mid sixties. Right now, sixty four degrees

74
00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:51.479
<v Speaker 1>in Plymouth, where it's sixty one in Worcester, sixty five

75
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:55.039
<v Speaker 1>in Nashua, New Hampshire, and in Boston eleven oh five.

76
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:59.039
<v Speaker 1>It is sunny, it is gorgeous and sixty four degrees. Well.

77
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:01.319
<v Speaker 1>Celtics fans are getting pretty hyped for the pivotal Game

78
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.280
<v Speaker 1>four tonight in New York. You're still many bz's Jim McKay.

79
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:07.199
<v Speaker 3>Some fans still can't get past the first two games

80
00:04:07.240 --> 00:04:08.039
<v Speaker 3>of this series.

81
00:04:08.280 --> 00:04:09.680
<v Speaker 4>Just the shots weren't going in.

82
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>It was tough.

83
00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:11.960
<v Speaker 4>They just couldn't hit shots.

84
00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:14.120
<v Speaker 3>The Green went down two games to nothing, but on

85
00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:16.560
<v Speaker 3>Saturday they had a convincing win on the road at

86
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:19.680
<v Speaker 3>Madison Square Garden, and tonight they're hoping for a repeat.

87
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:22.120
<v Speaker 3>It went by ten tonight. Ron from Lynn heading to

88
00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:25.040
<v Speaker 3>work at North Station. He thinks the Jays will come

89
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:27.879
<v Speaker 3>alive tonight and the Celtics talent will prevail.

90
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:30.439
<v Speaker 5>I think Game five will swing back in our fava.

91
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:32.680
<v Speaker 3>If the Celtics win tonight, it then becomes a best

92
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:35.920
<v Speaker 3>of three series, with Game five set for Wednesday night

93
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:38.759
<v Speaker 3>right here at the Garden. But before that, the Celtics

94
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:40.560
<v Speaker 3>still need to get a w don't think it home

95
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:42.920
<v Speaker 3>againstick as well. Chip off for Game four tonight at

96
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.680

<v Speaker 1>Former Boston Mayor Tominino passed away about ten years ago,

100
00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:58.759

101
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Mayor Michelle Wou she did when Wu first ran for

102
00:05:01.879 --> 00:05:04.439
<v Speaker 1>mayor back in twenty twenty one. In a new statement

103
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:07.399

104
00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:10.800
<v Speaker 1>has continued her husband's legacy by showing up, taking care

105
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:13.720
<v Speaker 1>of the small things, and building trust to get things done.

106

<v Speaker 1>Minino says Wu has worked hard to make Boston home

107
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:19.360
<v Speaker 1>for everyone, and she believes her late husband also would

108
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:23.120
<v Speaker 1>have endorsed her. Wu is facing several challengers, most notably
