00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 2: Nance cloudy in Boston right now at eleven o'clock. We've

3
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 2: made it to fifty degrees. We've got a hide today

4
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 2: in the low to mid sixties. We'll get the forecast

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 2: coming up in just a few minutes. I'm Nicole Davis,

6
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: and here's what's happening President Trump today, threatening to obliterate

7
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,479
Speaker 2: Iran's oil wells and power plants, have a deal to

8
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 2: reopen the Strait of Hormus and and the war in

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 2: the Middle East is not reached. Shortly, during an interview

10
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 2: with The Financial Times, President Trump said American troops could

11
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: seize the country's top oil export hub as comes as

12
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: more US marines have made it to the region. Here's

13
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 2: ABC's Matt Rivers.

14
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: The new interview, with the President setting his sights on

15
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: the oil in Iran, saying, my favorite thing is to

16
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: take the oil in Iran. But some stupid people back

17
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: in the US say, why are you doing that?

18
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 3: But they're stupid people.

19
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: Trump noting that seizing Iran's oil would likely involves using

20
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: carg Island, which handles nearly all of Iran's oil exports,

21
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: but that would require US troops on the ground.

22
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 2: As the Strait of Hormoz stays closed, the price of

23
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: oil keeps rising. Here's ABC Sherry Preston.

24
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 4: Oil in the US has now joined Global Oil and

25
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 4: Triple digit pricing. West Texas Intermediate is trading about one

26
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 4: hundred and one dollars a barrel, and the global benchmark

27
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 4: Brent crude is trading at one hundred and fifteen dollars

28
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 4: a barrel. Economists don't expect any reprieve in prices until

29
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 4: the Strait of Hormuze fully reopens, or until economies around

30
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 4: the world fall into recession, which would mean demand for

31
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 4: oil would drop and prices would fall.

32
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 2: Now, according to Triple A, the average price for a

33
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 2: regular gallon of gas here in Massachusetts is now at

34
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 2: three point eighty a gallon. That is up by seven

35
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 2: cents from last week and ninety cents from this time

36
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: last month. It is eleven oh one. Gunfire in a

37
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: Brockton neighborhood over the weekend after police say a traffic

38
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 2: stop went awry. Essay officers pulled over a vehicle around

39
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 2: two in the morning yesterday on Marine Street. That vehicle

40
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 2: is apparently connected to another shooting now. According to police,

41
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 2: the suspect tried to make a break for it and

42
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 2: started to shoot at officers, and that's when they say

43
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 2: officers fired back. Suspect was hit, but in the exchange

44
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: of seventy one year old men sleeping in a nearby

45
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: home was also grazed by a bullet. Both were taken

46
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 2: to the hospital with non life threatening injuries. None of

47
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 2: the officers were hurt, and TSA agents are set to

48
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: get their first paychecks today that they have seen in weeks,

49
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 2: as comes after President Trump signed an executive order to

50
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 2: resume the pay. It's in an effort to try to

51
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 2: cut down on callouts and ease TSA lines during the

52
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 2: partial government shutdown. ABC's Rachel Scott says this does not

53
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 2: address workers across the whole Homeland Security Department.

54
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 5: There are still thousands of DHS workers who are going

55
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 5: without pay, including civilian employees with the Coast Guard and

56
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,239
Speaker 5: with FEMA. The Senate and the House have now passed

57
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 5: two competing proposals. Democrats are still demanding significant changes to

58
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 5: immigration before fully funding DHS, but instead of staying here

59
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 5: in Washington to work out their differences, lawmakers have now

60
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 5: all left town for a two week recess. It is

61
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 5: worth noting that they are still getting their paychecks.

62
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 2: We are now on forty five days since the partial

63
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: government shutdown began. Let's go get a look at the forecast.

64
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 2: It is going to be a pretty gray day out

65
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 2: there today. We've got some gusty conditions as well. As

66
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 2: we make our way outside, we've got the wind blowing

67
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: mostly from the southwest, anywhere from twenty to thirty five

68
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 2: miles an hour at any given time. So even though

69
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 2: we're in the fifties getting up to about the sixties today,

70
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,119
Speaker 2: it's going to feel a bit cooler and we are

71
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: not really going to make it out of the mid

72
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 2: fifties on the capein Islands today. For tonight, cloudy with

73
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 2: a couple of showers after midnight, low in the mid

74
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 2: to upper forties. Then for tomorrow we'll have some morning

75
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: showers and we've got to hide near sixty one. Wednesday,

76
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 2: the warmest day of the week by far. We've got

77
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 2: a high in the mid seventies with a couple of

78
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 2: showers in the afternoon. But if you're on the capein Islands,

79
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 2: not going to once again make it out of the fifties.

80
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: Fifty two in Taunton. Right now forty nine in Gloucester.

81
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 2: We're at fifty four in Fitchburg. In Boston, eleven oh five,

82
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 2: it's partly Sonny and fifty degrees.

83
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 6: With a four to two win.

84
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 2: Against the Minnesota Frost, the Boston Fleet becoming the first

85
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 2: team in the PWHL to clinch a spot in the playoffs.

86
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 6: Scar make.

87
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 7: Fleet League Jamie Hurst with the call on Sophie Shirley,

88
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 7: ending Minnesota's hopes for a comeback with her second goal

89
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 7: of the game. The Fleet had been on an absolute

90
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 7: role since the Olympic break, with gold medal winners Megan Keller,

91
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 7: Haley Winn and Aaron Frankel putting the Walter Cups squarely

92
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 7: in their sights. There are still six games left in

93
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 7: the regular season, including a hotly anticipated game at the

94
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 7: TV Garden next month against Montreal. Brian Anton Alley wb Z,

00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 6: The March Madness win for the Ages for the Yukon

98
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 6: Men over due two seconds it up. The Huskies with

99
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 6: their last second miracle, joined Michigan, Arizona, Illinois and next

100
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 6: weekend's final. They also joined the Yukon women in their

101
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 6: final four. The Lady Huskies play Friday. This means both

102
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 6: the Yukon men and women are again both one went

103
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 6: away from playing for their respective college basketball national championship.

104
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 6: And this also means Jordan's Furniture may be giving it

105
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 6: all away again. Let me take you back to a

106
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 6: convo I had with Jordan's chairman Elliott Taitelman back in January.

107
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 6: They ran a free furniture promo. Just like the Red

108
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 6: Sox ones of the past, the rules this time if

109
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 6: the Yukon men's and women's teams both play for the championship,

110
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 6: should be easy.

111
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 3: It should be easy. They just have to play be

112
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 3: the final two.

113
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 6: We really didn't think it was gonna be easy, But

114
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 6: here we are knocking on the door, and for many

115
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 6: fingers crossed at the furniture they bought gonna end up
