Prosecutors will lay out case against officers in the death of Elijah McClain

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 12:26:18 GMT

BRIGHTON, Colo. (AP) — Prosecutors are expected to present opening statements after jury selection wraps up Wednesday in the trial of two police officers charged in the 2019 death of Elijah McClain, a Black man who was detained while walking in a Denver suburb.In the first of several trials stemming from the death of McClain, lawyers for the two sides are expected to paint contrasting pictures of the deadly struggle between the officers and the 23-year-old, who was stopped by police while returning home from a convenience store. He was unarmed.One question jurors could be asked to decide is whether it was lawful for officers Randy Roedema and Jason Rosenblatt to detain and use force against McClain, who a 911 caller had reported as being suspicious. If prosecutors can convince jurors the stop was unjustified, that would undermine any argument that McClain’s injuries were a result of the officers just doing their jobs. Elijah McClain’s manner of death remains ‘undetermined’ in amen...

Teen rescued after becoming stuck under Foresthill Bridge near Sacramento

PLACER COUNTY, California (KOVR) — A teen’s call for help came as he became stuck hundreds of feet up in Placer County Monday.The Placer County Sheriff’s Office says that, just before 6:30 p.m. Monday, it received a call about someone dangling from a rope on the Foresthill bridge. A 19-year-old was swinging from the underside of the bridge, while his friend, 17, was filming.Based on video obtained by Cal Fire but not released to the public, the stunt was successful — until the older teen tried to pull himself back up the rope, hanging about 30 feet.The equipment failed, causing him to be stuck under the catwalk, the sheriff’s office said. And after they determined that they couldn’t get the teen back up to the catwalk themselves, they called 911.“I think it’s a little ridiculous to do something like that,” said Auburn resident Mark Slack.The ridiculous stunt, and even just the mere idea of it, was shocking to people like Slack.“T...

MBTA investigating after two more close calls between Red Line trains, workers

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 12:26:18 GMT

Two near misses between MBTA trains and workers along the tracks are coming to light, after the federal transit officials blasted the MBTA last week for a number of near misses over the past month and a half.The latest incident on Monday morning involved a Red Line train and a two-person crew inspecting the tracks between the Harvard and Porter Stations. The MBTA said “a flagger signaled for an approaching train to stop and it did not.” The MBTA said no one was hurt, and while the agency investigates, the train’s driver is out of service.During the investigation, one of the two track inspectors said a similar near miss happened a week earlier in the same area of the Red Line. The MBTA said this near miss, which was previously unreported, happened a week earlier on Sept. 11 and is now under investigation.The Federal Transit Administration criticized the MBTA over four near miss events since the beginning of August. “Based on these incidents, FTA has determined that a ...

Ticker: Mass picked for microelectronics hub; MGM back to normal after cyberattack

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 12:26:18 GMT

The U.S. Department of Defense on Wednesday chose Massachusetts to lead a regional microelectronics hub, positioning the state for growth in a burgeoning industry that the Healey administration hopes will reach a level of significance akin to the state’s life science industry.The federal government awarded $19.7 million to the Northeast Microelectronics Coalition (NEMC) — made up of more than 85 organizations across seven states and led by quasi-public agency MassTech — to go toward “a regional hub that will advance the microelectronics needs of the U.S. Department of Defense while spurring new jobs, workforce training opportunities and investment in the region’s advanced manufacturing and technology centers,” according to MassTech.The coalition submitted the proposal in March to the DoD’s Microelectronics Commons program, which uses funds from the recently passed CHIPS and Science Act to invigorate the country’s domestic semiconductor...

Fed holds the line on rates 

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 12:26:18 GMT

WASHINGTON  — The Federal Reserve left its key interest rate unchanged for the second time in its past three meetings, a sign that it’s moderating its fight against inflation as price pressures have eased.But central bank officials also signaled that they expect to raise rates once more this year.Consumer inflation has dropped from a year-over-year peak of 9.1% in June 2022 to 3.7%. Yet it’s still well above the Fed’s 2% target, and its policymakers made clear Wednesday that they aren’t close to declaring victory over the worst bout of inflation in 40 years.“The process of getting inflation sustainably down to 2% has a long way to go,” Chair Jerome Powell said at a news conference. “We’ve seen progress, and we welcome that, but we need to see more progress” before concluding that it’s appropriate to end the rate hikes.The Fed’s latest decision left its benchmark rate at about 5.4%, the result of 11 rate hikes it unlea...

Brayan Bello allows career-worst eight runs as Red Sox blown out by Rangers 15-5

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 12:26:18 GMT

It started off as well as the Red Sox could have hoped. The offense crushed two home runs in the first two innings to take an early 4-0 lead, and with Brayan Bello on the mound it seemed like the club was sitting pretty.Then the Rangers got rolling, and Bello couldn’t do anything to stop them.The second-year right-hander endured the worst outing of his career Wednesday, allowing eight runs over three innings in Boston’s 15-5 loss to Texas. Bello first melted down in the second, allowing six runs before recording an out in the inning, and after eventually working out of that frame, allowed two more runs in the third, the last on a bases-loaded walk.All told, Bello allowed more runs in his outing than any Red Sox starter this season, and the most since Nathan Eovaldi allowed nine in last summer’s 28-5 debacle against the Toronto Blue Jays.“Not a good one,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora said. “They put some good swings on pitches in the zone, the command...
