From New York, the greatest city in the world, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! We've talked about this before: children bringing weapons into public schools. Recently, we talked about a student being stabbed for his phone. Today's incident was nothing new.
Some stories talked about on tonight's show were:
1. Police in Brooklyn are searching for a 14-year-old boy who apparently brought a gun to school today. It happened at W. H. Maxwell Career and Technical Education High School on Pennsylvania Avenue in East New York. Authorities say the teen attempted to enter the school with a .25-caliber firearm inside his backpack.
2. An off-duty police officer was killed in a crash with a tractor-trailer in New Jersey this morning. It happened just after 2:15 a.m.
3. With striking displays of candor, the Episcopal Church is acknowledging the potency of the #MeToo movement by officially lamenting its past role in sexual exploitation and pledging steps to combat it.
