From New York, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! Because of routine scheduled maintenance, we're having an express show tomorrow, and a brief show from Six Flags on Friday. We'll be back Monday at 5PM!
Some stories talked about on tonight's show were:
1. 5 people are dead after a C-130 military plane crashed in Savannah, Georgia. The "Hercules" cargo plane from Puerto Rico Air National Guard crashed after taking off around 11:30 a.m. There were 9 total people on the plane, and the status of the remaining four passengers is currently unknown.
2. Two black men arrested for sitting at a Philadelphia Starbucks without ordering anything settled with the city Wednesday for a symbolic $1 each and a promise from officials to set up a $200,000 program for young entrepreneurs, and Starbucks agreed to pay for a college education for them.
3. Jurors are deliberating at the trial of a New York City doctor who performed a badly botched abortion that caused a patient to bleed to death.
