From New York, the greatest city in the world, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! Mayor De Blasio recently talked about his Vision Zero initiative- reducing pedestrian deaths. Nobody died here, but the results were pretty frightening.
Some stories talked about on today's show were:
1. A woman was critically injured when her car slammed into a Queens furniture store and caught fire. It happened on Liberty Avenue just before 3 a.m. The silver Honda Accord somehow lost control northbound on 122nd Street, jumped the curb and crashed into the front of Salco Furniture.
2. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and his chief lieutenants are offering contrition and defiance as they face allegations of sexual harassment that plagued his last presidential campaign and now threaten to derail a second White House bid before it begins.
3. A former deputy inspector for the NYPD has been exonerated on bribery charges. The verdict that cleared James Grant resulted in the conviction of a co-defendant.
