From New York, the greatest city in the world, and where the restrooms are for customers only, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! The end of the semester is rapidly approaching, so the good news times continues to roll with Julien in the chair to rattle of today's headlines.
Some stories talked about on today's show were:
1. The man accused of killing eight people by driving his truck on a bike path in Manhattan on Halloween has pleaded not guilty to charges stemming from the attack. Last week a grand jury returned a 22-count indictment against Sayfullo Saipov.
2. North Korea launched an intercontinental ballistic missile 2,800 miles into space earlier today, making it the highest North Korean missile test to date, two U.S. officials confirmed. It was also the longest duration of any missile flight, traveling in the air for an estimated 50 minutes.
3. The NYPD have charged a man who they say stabbed a woman to death and slashed a good Samaritan who came to her aid.
