Leaders continue to react to the shooting death of a 37 year old man killed by federal agents this morning in the streets of Minneapolis. The Associated Press said the man who was killed was identified by his parents as Alex Pretty, an intensive care unit nurse. This is Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara.
This is a 37 year old white male. Who is a Minneapolis resident? and we believe he is an American citizen.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry. I just saw a video of more than six masked agents pummeling one of our constituents and shooting him to death. How many more residents, how many more Americans need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end? Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.
This federal occupation of Minnesota long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. It's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of our state.
Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino called the shooting defensive. Fearing for his life and the lives and safety of fellow officers, a Border Patrol agent fired defensive shots. The Minnesota Timberwolves have postponed tonight's game versus the Golden State Warriors to, quote, prioritize the safety and security of the Minneapolis community. Mayor Zoran Mamdani says New York City is ready for whatever this winter storm brings.
We expect at least eight to nine inches of snow and likely more. This will not just be snow. This storm will also bring with it intense cold, a prolonged period of frigid temperatures that will last through the next week.
Mamdani urged people to stay inside tomorrow and Monday.
Please, if you can avoid it, do not drive, do not travel, do not do anything that could potentially place you or your loved ones in danger.
Mamdani has not decided whether schools will open on Monday yet or go remote.
We are weighing the safety of everyone involved. We want to make sure that whatever decision we make is one where students, parents, educators will be safe. We also take this decision very seriously because we know that it has a significant impact on parents' schedules on Monday.
A final decision will be made by Sunday at noon. Meteorologist Craig Allen on what the Northeast may be facing.
Well, I hope you're finishing up on getting your essentials for what will likely be an extremely challenging winter storm. The snow is going to begin tonight in the D.C. area, then spread up 95 to New York City and Boston and beyond during Sunday afternoon. and all travel will become hazardous if not impossible thousands of flight cancellations to now i'm still looking at six to twelve inches for the majority of the region and some places may reach upwards of eighteen inches but a switch to sleep and freezing rain would lower those totals a bit south and east of ninety five near the coast
