00:00:01.280 --> 00:00:06.839
<v Speaker 1>This is w b Z, Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:14.759
<v Speaker 2>Sixty two degrees with sun and clouds in Boston at

3
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:18.239
<v Speaker 2>eleven o'clock. Good morning on this Memorial Day. I'm Kyle

4
00:00:18.359 --> 00:00:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Bray and here's what's happening.

5
00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:22.719
<v Speaker 1>This just in.

6
00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:26.679
<v Speaker 2>President Trump threatens to withhold more money from Harvard University

7
00:00:26.679 --> 00:00:30.359
<v Speaker 2>if the school doesn't turn over information about its foreign students.

8
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:34.399
<v Speaker 2>President Trump says he's thinking about taking three billion dollars

9
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:38.679
<v Speaker 2>from Harvard and redistributing it to trade schools. His administration

10
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:41.520
<v Speaker 2>has already frozen billions of dollars for the school, over

11
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:45.200
<v Speaker 2>which Harvard has sued. The President accuses Harvard of fostering

12
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:48.960
<v Speaker 2>and anti Semitic culture. Last week, his administration barred Harvard

13
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.799
<v Speaker 2>from enrolling foreign students. Harvard sued, and a federal judge

14
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:56.039
<v Speaker 2>in Boston put that move on hold. WBZ News Radio

15
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:59.719
<v Speaker 2>has reached out to Harvard for comment. President Trump is

16
00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:03.320
<v Speaker 2>also now delaying implementing fifty percent tariffs on the European

17
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:06.760
<v Speaker 2>Union for a month. The announcement follows yesterday's phone call

18
00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:10.959
<v Speaker 2>between President Trump and the European Commission's president. The BBC's

19
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:12.959
<v Speaker 2>Katie Silver says much as at stake.

20
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:15.560
<v Speaker 3>Just to give you an idea, the two economic super

21
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:18.799
<v Speaker 3>heavyweights trade around a trillion dollars of goods each year

22
00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:21.239
<v Speaker 3>between and that's according to US government figures. So there

23
00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:24.159
<v Speaker 3>certainly would be a lot of products, companies, and sectors

24
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:28.239
<v Speaker 3>impacted if we do, indeed see tariffs of that order place.

25
00:01:28.719 --> 00:01:32.280
<v Speaker 2>The European Commission is responsible for managing policies for the EU.

26
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:35.319
<v Speaker 2>On Friday, the President threatened to impose tariffs on the

27
00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:39.239
<v Speaker 2>EU as soon as June first. President Trump will mark

28
00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:42.000
<v Speaker 2>Memorial Day and honor the nation's fallen by laying a

29
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:45.480
<v Speaker 2>wreath at Arlington National Cemetery, But it comes as Russia

30
00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:49.120
<v Speaker 2>continues to attack Ukraine. Over the weekend, the President turned

31
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:51.640
<v Speaker 2>his focus to Russia's war on Ukraine. It comes less

32
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:54.200
<v Speaker 2>than a week after President held a two hour phone

33
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:57.120
<v Speaker 2>call with Vladimir Putin in an effort to move towards

34
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:00.760
<v Speaker 2>peace negotiations. CBS News is Wendy Jos.

35
00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:04.560
<v Speaker 4>President Trump is lashing out at Russian President Vladimir Putin

36
00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:08.680
<v Speaker 4>over his country's continued attacks on Ukraine. Posted on social

37
00:02:08.719 --> 00:02:11.479
<v Speaker 4>media that Putin has gone absolutely crazy.

38
00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:13.879
<v Speaker 5>I'm not happy with what Putin's doing.

39
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:15.159
<v Speaker 4>He's killing a lot of people.

40
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:17.719
<v Speaker 5>We're in the middle of talking and he's shooting rockets

41
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:19.280
<v Speaker 5>into Kiev and other cities.

42
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:22.039
<v Speaker 4>I don't like it at all. The comments came after

43
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:25.520
<v Speaker 4>a big and deadly Russian drone barrage over the weekend

44
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:29.919
<v Speaker 4>and following a massive prisoner swap between Russia and Ukraine.

45
00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:32.639
<v Speaker 2>And this morning a Ukrainian officials said an overnight Russian

46
00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:35.840
<v Speaker 2>drone attack was another claim of the biggest one staged

47
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:39.360
<v Speaker 2>in the three year war. Two people are sent to

48
00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:42.080
<v Speaker 2>the hospital after a car crashes into a house in Bronton.

49
00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:45.479
<v Speaker 2>It's happened on Lafoy Street on Sunday evening. Bronton police

50
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:48.080
<v Speaker 2>saya driver was trying to pass another car when they

51
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:50.280
<v Speaker 2>went off the road, hit a fence and smashed into

52
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:53.199
<v Speaker 2>the house. Two people inside the car suffered non life

53
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:56.680
<v Speaker 2>threatening injuries. The driver is expected to receive a summons.

54
00:02:57.599 --> 00:03:01.199
<v Speaker 2>It's time now for the four day WBZ weather forecast.

55
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:03.800
<v Speaker 2>Today we're gonna see some sunshine mixing with clouds. We'll

56
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:05.800
<v Speaker 2>have a high of sixty four in Boston, but that

57
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:08.639
<v Speaker 2>will approach seventy if you're well inland. Tonight will be

58
00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:11.319
<v Speaker 2>mainly clear, low of fifty three in the city between

59
00:03:11.319 --> 00:03:14.439
<v Speaker 2>forty three and forty seven if you are inland. Tomorrow,

60
00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:16.840
<v Speaker 2>we'll have lots of sun, will be high between seventy

61
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:20.039
<v Speaker 2>two and seventy six. We'll keep those warm temperatures as

62
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:22.560
<v Speaker 2>we head into Wednesday, but we'll get intervals of more

63
00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:25.439
<v Speaker 2>clouds mixing with that sun. We'll have some showers approaching

64
00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:28.240
<v Speaker 2>at night. Thursday, it will be mainly cloudy with a

65
00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:31.080
<v Speaker 2>shower or two. We should have a high around sixty

66
00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:32.719
<v Speaker 2>five as we cool down a little bit. But then

67
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:35.120
<v Speaker 2>on sun on Friday, we'll be warming up a little bit.

68
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:37.879
<v Speaker 2>We'll have highs back in the seventies as we look ahead,

69
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:40.400
<v Speaker 2>and I may have some sun and a chance of

70
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:43.439
<v Speaker 2>a shower. Right now in Boston, it is sixty two degrees,

71
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:48.439
<v Speaker 2>feels like seventy two and partly sunny. Passengers at Logan

72
00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:51.919
<v Speaker 2>Airport are preparing for the worst and hoping for the best.

<v Speaker 1>The Tampa's lacrosse team heads home in defeat after losing

77
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:06.240
<v Speaker 1>to a Delphi in overtime at Gillette Stadium for the

78
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:10.000
<v Speaker 1>D two National Championship. Despite that, players hold their heads

79
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:12.599
<v Speaker 1>high for air travel. Any words of wisdom for people

80
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:15.360
<v Speaker 1>traveling today, be nice to others. Words to take on

81
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:17.800
<v Speaker 1>the roads too, where you'll have company if you choose

82
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:20.439
<v Speaker 1>to get behind a steering wheel. Mastot predicts today to

83
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:22.480
<v Speaker 1>be among the busiest on the roads.

84
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:23.319
<v Speaker 4>Not as bad as it was.

85
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Really, what were you expecting today?

86
00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:26.279
<v Speaker 4>I didn't know.

87
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:29.279
<v Speaker 1>Despite the EBB and flow of people here at Logan Airport,

88
00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:32.839
<v Speaker 1>the theme here is cautious optimism, Jay will Lett, WBZ

89
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 1>Boston's news radio, And of.

90
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:37.600
<v Speaker 2>Those folks heading over to Logan, they're part of more

91
00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:40.199
<v Speaker 2>than three and a half million Americans that are expected

92
00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:43.360
<v Speaker 2>to fly today. But at Newark Airport, travel remains tough.

93
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:46.759
<v Speaker 2>There nearly four hundred delays on Saturday, and the FAA

94
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:49.600
<v Speaker 2>says on average, flights at Newark were delayed about thirty

95
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:53.680
<v Speaker 2>five minutes. Yesterday. CBS's Chanel Call spoke to an expert

96
00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 2>about how this will impact everyone else.

97
00:04:56.040 --> 00:04:59.519
<v Speaker 4>Aviation expert Michael McCormick. Do you think it was happening

98
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:02.680
<v Speaker 4>at Newark? May and pack summer travel across the country.

99
00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:08.040
<v Speaker 6>There's an old adage within the aircraft Control System United States.

100
00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:11.439
<v Speaker 6>Whoever New York goes so cooes the rest of the country.

101
00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:14.800
<v Speaker 6>So if Nework is having a bad day and the

102
00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:16.240
<v Speaker 6>rest of the country is going to have a bad

103
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:19.279
<v Speaker 6>day because so many flights go through that airspace.

104
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:22.920
<v Speaker 2>Yesterday, Logan there were one hundred and forty five flight delays.

105
00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:25.040
<v Speaker 2>So far Today according to Flight to Air we're only

106
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:29.199
<v Speaker 2>seeing thirty seven and no cancelations, so hope that can

107
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.800
<v Speaker 2>stay there. A bit of chaos in the sky out

108
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:35.759
<v Speaker 2>West with passengers acting up on a long haul flight.

109
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:39.399
<v Speaker 5>Passengers wrestling an unruly man who authorities say tried to

110
00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:42.839
<v Speaker 5>open the plane doors mid flight. The flight from Tokyo

111
00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:46.680
<v Speaker 5>to Houston diverted to Seattle, passengers and crew using a

112
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:49.800
<v Speaker 5>zip tie to restrain the passenger. The airline all nip

113
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:53.519
<v Speaker 5>On Airways confirming the incident and saying a second passenger

114
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:56.920
<v Speaker 5>became unruly while on the tarmac in Seattle and that

115
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:00.079
<v Speaker 5>both were removed from the flight by Port of Seattle Police.

116
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:04.800
<v Speaker 2>That's ABC's Morgan Norwood reporting robbers are targeting food delivery

117
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:07.800
<v Speaker 2>drivers in Mattapan and Hyde Park. The Boston Police Department

118
00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:10.600
<v Speaker 2>is warning drivers who work for app based and independent

119
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:13.879
<v Speaker 2>food delivery services about a recent rise in robberies and

120
00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.600
<v Speaker 2>the threat to their safety. In most cases that delivery

121
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:19.720
<v Speaker 2>drivers are approached by one or more people and are threatened,

122
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:23.480
<v Speaker 2>sometimes with weapons, before being robbed of their food delivery.

123
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:26.600
<v Speaker 2>PPD offering some safety tips. They're saying to avoid carrying

124
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:30.040
<v Speaker 2>cash and report any customers who insist on cash payments

125
00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:34.079
<v Speaker 2>outside the app's payment system. You are now in the loop.
