Kong was disrupted when a passenger attempted to open a
door mid flight. In an email, the airline says that

eight year old victim and her significant other are both

a high thirty eight in the city, low forties for
the cape in the Islands, where there can be a
little rain laid, and into this evening and then tonight
cloudy and then snow late tonight into midday Tomorrow. Will
accumulate one to three inches. We're talking areas especially south
(03:11):
of Boston. Any untreated surfaces be careful. Tonight and tomorrow
will be slippery to start off. Sunday all right, an
overnight low near thirty. Tomorrow breezy and cold, clouds breaking
for some sunshine will reach a high of thirty three,
though those temperatures will start to fall throughout the day,
and then Monday high have just thirty sunny to partly cloudy,
(03:32):
breezy and cold. Tuesday a tadwarmer, a high have thirty five,
still very cold, though more sun than clouds on Tuesday.
Right now it's partly sunny and thirty one in Boston.
Back to newsnow, local fire departments are sounding the alarm
after more than one icy rescue.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
You're a reminder from firefighters and Lynn and in Maulden,
no matter how cold it gets, no ice is considered safe.
Wednesday afternoon, cruise rush to Fell's Pond and Mauldon to
find a young woman clinging to the ice edge in
desperate distress. Thankfully they were able to get her out quickly,
but just hours later at Lynn's flax Pond, the man
fell through some thirty feet from shore. He was only
(04:12):
found after a nine to one one collar reported something
on the ice. It turned out to be someone without
time to wait for a water rescue crews made their
way onto the ice, and eventually they were able to
pull the outflailing man out of the water and rush
him to the hospital. The department says without everyone's quick action,
he would have died. Authorities pleading with people to know
appearances can be deceiving and to stay off the ice.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Health concerns at a center for health. The far cafeteria
at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center cited recently for a
range of health and safety concerns. We're talking about things
from clogg sinks to food stored at the wrong temperature,
all discovered this month during a routine inspection. Other violations
include poor handwose washing practices. A spokesperson for Beth Israel
(05:02):
deacon Is in the cafeteria operator say the issues were
quickly addressed. Are you in the market for a fake
Christmas tree this year? If so, you're gonna have to
pay more.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
People looking to buy artificial Christmas trees this year are
having even more sticker shock. They are thirty to forty
percent more in price, in large part because of Trump
administration tariffs. More than eighty percent of fake Christmas trees
are made in China.
Speaker 7 (05:28):
We want to be treated the same as bananas, coffee, mangoes, etc.
Those things are not grown in the US. We know
that those are now being exempted. Overall materials are not
available in the US, and so we think we should
be treated in the same way.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
He played a range of bad guys on the big screen.
Character actor Peter Green has died.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
He was one of those actors you'd recognize on screen
and think that guy Peter greenblade Z in Pulp Fiction,
was the bad guy opposite Jim Carrey in The Mask,
and played another bad guy in the Usual Suspects. The
sixty year old was found dead in his Lower East
Side apartment Friday, neighbors say with a bloody face. No
(06:13):
word from NYPD on cause of death or suspicion of
foul play. Green had battled drug addiction earlier in his career.
Speaker 2 (06:20):

was scheduled to have surgery to remove a benign tumor
near his lungs, but was otherwise considered healthy. You are
