In local 00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:08.259 news, police in Worcester, Massachusetts, have 00:03:08.259 --> 00:03:12.039 charged city councilor Etel Haxiech with assault 00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:15.639 and battery on a police officer. as well as interfering 00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:18.719 with police during a chaotic immigration operation 00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:23.259 on May 8th. Video footage showed officers holding 00:03:23.259 --> 00:03:26.259 a 16 -year -old girl's face to the ground, while 00:03:26.259 --> 00:03:28.960 U .S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents 00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:32.960 detained her mother. Hexy Edge, responding on 00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:36.539 social media, stated, I am a mother, an immigrant, 00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:39.240 and an elected leader who attempted to protect 00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:42.909 a traumatized young person. The incident has 00:03:42.909 --> 00:03:46.009 sparked protests and a new policy from city manager 00:03:46.009 --> 00:03:49.849 Eric Batista, emphasizing that the police department 00:03:49.849 --> 00:03:52.909 will not target individuals based on immigration 00:03:52.909 --> 00:04:03.650 status. Now on to sports. ESPN is facing scrutiny 00:04:03.650 --> 00:04:06.729 over its recent NBA Finals broadcast lineup. 00:04:07.710 --> 00:04:10.710 Previously, play -by -play announcer Mike Breen. 00:04:11.129 --> 00:04:14.330 teamed with analysts Jeff Van Gundy and Mark 00:04:14.330 --> 00:04:17.689 Jackson, creating a comfortable and informative 00:04:17.689 --> 00:04:21.910 experience. However, after cutting Van Gundy 00:04:21.910 --> 00:04:26.629 and Jackson in 2023, ESPN introduced Doris Burke 00:04:26.629 --> 00:04:29.870 and Richard Jefferson alongside Breen for this 00:04:29.870 --> 00:04:33.290 year's finals. Critics note that Burke's role 00:04:33.290 --> 00:04:36.389 is uncertain and Jefferson's contract is expiring, 00:04:36.509 --> 00:04:40.910 amid interest from Amazon Prime Video. With Breen 00:04:40.910 --> 00:04:44.170 lacking chemistry with his new partners, ESPN's 00:04:44.170 --> 00:04:46.649 decision -making continues to raise eyebrows 00:04:46.649 --> 00:04:51.269 as they enter the finals. Tonight is Game 1 of 00:04:51.269 --> 00:04:54.949 the NBA Finals with Pacers at Thunder on ABC. 00:04:56.149 --> 00:05:00.430 Tip -off is at 8 .30 Eastern. The Thunder are 00:05:00.430 --> 00:05:06.089 favored by 9 .5. In local sports... Yesterday 00:05:06.089 --> 00:05:09.470 afternoon in Boston, the Sox outslugged the Angels 00:05:09.470 --> 00:05:14.509 11 -9. Down by four in the sixth, the Sox rallied 00:05:14.509 --> 00:05:17.769 with six runs in the eighth, and Rafaela clinched 00:05:17.769 --> 00:05:20.850 the win with a walk -off solo shot in the ninth. 00:05:21.569 --> 00:05:24.350 Prick got the win, while Burke was tagged with 00:05:24.350 --> 00:05:28.050 a loss. Devers and Rafaela shone brightly at 00:05:28.050 --> 00:05:31.629 the plate, propelling Boston to 30 wins and 34 00:05:31.629 --> 00:05:35.860 losses, marking a thrilling comeback. Tomorrow 00:05:35.860 --> 00:05:39.160 night, the Sox face the Yankees in New York for 00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:43.300 game one of a three -game series. Walker Buehler, 00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:47.459 with a 4 .34 earned run average, takes on Will 00:05:47.459 --> 00:05:52.360 Warren, boosting a 5 .19. First pitch is at 7 00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:55.540 .05 under clear skies, with temperatures around 00:05:55.540 --> 00:06:02.339 76 degrees. In top news, in a significant move, 00:06:02.730 --> 00:06:05.250 President Trump has signed a travel ban affecting 00:06:05.250 --> 00:06:08.589 citizens from 12 countries, including Afghanistan, 00:06:08.990 --> 00:06:13.350 Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial 00:06:13.350 --> 00:06:18.170 Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, 00:06:18.389 --> 00:06:22.509 Sudan, and Yemen. Additionally, travel restrictions 00:06:22.509 --> 00:06:25.529 will apply to seven other nations, barring their 00:06:25.529 --> 00:06:28.350 citizens from permanent immigration and tourist 00:06:28.350 --> 00:06:32.829 or student visas. This policy, reminiscent of 00:06:32.829 --> 00:06:35.629 earlier immigration measures, aims to address 00:06:35.629 --> 00:06:38.730 high visa overstay rates and passport reliability 00:06:38.730 --> 00:06:42.850 issues. While the ban excludes green card holders 00:06:42.850 --> 00:06:46.009 and participants in major sporting events, its 00:06:46.009 --> 00:06:48.870 implementation is raising concerns among affected 00:06:48.870 --> 00:06:55.490 citizens. In business news, a large cargo ship, 00:06:55.709 --> 00:06:58.990 the Morning Midas, is adrift in the Pacific Ocean. 00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:02.220 after a fire broke out on a deck carrying electric 00:07:02.220 --> 00:07:06.819 vehicles. The vessel was approximately 300 miles 00:07:06.819 --> 00:07:10.379 southwest of Alaska's Attic Island when the flames 00:07:10.379 --> 00:07:14.259 forced the crew to abandon ship. All 22 crew 00:07:14.259 --> 00:07:17.279 members were safely evacuated and taken to a 00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:20.680 nearby merchant vessel. The ship was transporting 00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:24.800 around 3 ,000 cars, including 800 electric vehicles, 00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:29.360 from Yantai in China to Lazaro Cardenas in Mexico. 00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:33.480 The cause of the fire remains under investigation, 00:07:33.860 --> 00:07:36.600 with experts noting the risks associated with 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:41.699 lithium -ion batteries. In crypto movement, Bitcoin 00:07:41.699 --> 00:07:47.879 is unchanged at $105 ,000. Ethereum is down 0 00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:53.439 .5 % to just over $2 ,600. And Goetze's Maximus 00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:59.480 is down 8 % to $0 .11. Moving on to a more local 00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:03.300 vibe. In our community spotlight on health and 00:08:03.300 --> 00:08:06.240 wellness, we are working with a national Pilates 00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:09.560 studio to bring you some free classes, so listen 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:13.720 up.

And now, back to the show. 00:08:45.309 --> 00:08:48.789 Let's talk science. Astronomers have long believed 00:08:48.789 --> 00:08:51.529 that the Milky Way is on a collision course with 00:08:51.529 --> 00:08:54.409 the Andromeda Galaxy, but a new study suggests 00:08:54.409 --> 00:08:57.750 otherwise. Researchers found that the likelihood 00:08:57.750 --> 00:09:00.909 of a merger between the two galaxies is now about 00:09:00.909 --> 00:09:04.269 50 -50, likening the outcome to a coin flip. 00:09:05.029 --> 00:09:07.830 This fresh perspective emerged from a survey 00:09:07.830 --> 00:09:10.690 that included other significant galaxies in the 00:09:10.690 --> 00:09:14.590 area. While Earth may not be around in 5 billion 00:09:14.590 --> 00:09:17.330 years, the possibility of a near -miss offers 00:09:17.330 --> 00:09:20.710 comfort for future worlds, allowing the Milky 00:09:20.710 --> 00:09:24.779 Way to continue forming new stars. Ultimately, 00:09:24.940 --> 00:09:28.200 galactic dynamics will shape the cosmos, ensuring 00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:34.500 an exciting future for our galaxy. And in entertainment 00:09:34.500 --> 00:09:38.919 news. In an exciting new project, Colin Farrell 00:09:38.919 --> 00:09:42.059 and Margot Robbie star in the romantic fantasy 00:09:42.059 --> 00:09:45.679 film A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, directed by 00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:49.679 Kaganata. Robbie describes the experience as 00:09:49.679 --> 00:09:52.840 truly one of the most magical experiences of 00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:56.919 my life. After their major roles in Barbie and 00:09:56.919 --> 00:09:59.720 The Penguin, they embark on a story that explores 00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:02.399 connection and love through shared memories. 00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:06.580 Kaganata, known for his visual storytelling, 00:10:06.980 --> 00:10:09.860 aims to create a world that is both inviting 00:10:09.860 --> 00:10:13.600 and surprising. The film releases in theaters 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:16.940 on September 19th. featuring a talented supporting 00:10:16.940 --> 00:10:22.600 cast, including Lily Rabe and Kevin Kline. Well, 00:10:22.700 --> 00:10:25.519 all righty, folks, it's time for the quote of 00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:29.240 the day. And today, our quote comes from the 00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:32.600 American writer and philosopher Albert Hubbard. 00:10:33.379 --> 00:10:37.320 And he said, The world is moving so fast these 00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:40.139 days that the man who says it can't be done is 00:10:40.139 --> 00:10:44.659 generally interrupted by someone doing it. And 00:10:44.659 --> 00:10:47.740 that's a wrap for this morning. You can check 00:10:47.740 --> 00:10:51.299 out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some 00:10:51.299 --> 00:10:54.840 captivating aerial videos with local news and 00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:58.340 the weather reports.
