Eighty one degrees in Boston. Lots of sun out there
are very hazy though. We'll talk about that coming up
in just a few minutes in traffic and weather together.
Good morning, it's eleven o'clock. I'm Nicole Davis and here's
what's happening at Norfolk Superior Court and Dedham today. The
jury is off, but the lawyers and the judge are

At eleven oh one, at least two hundred and forty
people are believed to be dead after a Boeing seven
eighty seven Dreamliner crashed today shortly after takeoff. The Air
(00:54):
India jet was bound for London when there was some
kind of malfunction. Here's ABC Sam Sweeney.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
This was nose dive. This plane had just taken off.
We've seen videos circulating on social media showing it almost
looks like it's landing. It's coming down at roughly five
hundred feet per second on a glide scope, so not
a nose dive. The landing gear was still down. This
signifies some sort of loss of power, and of course
we now know that the captain did make some sort
(01:22):
of a may day call, but then that was it.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
And reports of the plane crashed into a medical college.
The NTSB is leading a team of American investigators going
to India to help with the investigation. The final preps
are underway in Washington for Saturday's big military parade. This
is taking place to honor the Army's two hundred and
fiftieth birthday, but also as President Trump turned seventy nine.
The White House making a late request for the Air
(01:46):
Force Thunderbirds to do a flyover. ABC's Victor Aquendo got
an inside look at the parade route.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
The entire area around the White House has been completely transformed.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
From above, we can see.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
The nearly twenty miles of fencing leading light up work.
Speaker 6 (02:00):
President Trump will be on Saturday.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Authorities tell me this will be the safest place in
the world.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Victor there in a flyover in a US Park Police
helicopter with the Secret Service. The Army says more than
six thousand soldiers will be taking part in that parade
and in response all over the country, including right here
in Boston. No King's Day protests are planned on Saturday Now.
Organizers say nationwide, up to a million people are expected
to show up to hundreds of these here in Massachusetts.
(02:28):
Dozens of demonstrations around the calendar. The one in Boston
is expected to take place right alongside the city's Pride parade.
Other local protest locations include Worcester, Springfield, Fitchburg, New Bedford, Providence,
and Nashua, New Hampshire. Lots of hayes out there today
for sure, and it's going to be a nice, warm day,
beautiful day to get outside. Maybe head to the beach,
(02:48):
go dip your toes in the water, your local pond
or park. But keep this in mind, it is a
very high pollen day. And also we have a pretty
elevated amount of ozone and issues with the air because
of the smoke coming in from the Canadian wildfires. You
put that together, we do again have the elevated levels
in the atmosphere. If you are sensitive in this regard
(03:09):
might be a day or you want to stay inside
in the ac or limit your time outside. Now. We
have temperatures right now in the upper seventies, low eighties,
getting up to about the mid to upper eighties today,
a little bit cooler on the Capan Islands. Gusty breeze
for the rest of the day from the southwest. For tonight,
partly cloudy, low in Boston just about sixty, mid fifties
if you're north and west. Friday Tomorrow cooler with a
(03:31):
mix of sun and clouds and a high year seventy
two for your Saturday. Yes, another weekend, I know, thirteen
in a row this weekend where we will see a
bit of rain and we've got a high only sixty two.
Sunday for Father's Day. It will stay cool, clouds much
of the time, maybe a couple of showers but not consistent.
And we've got a high just about sixty seventy eight
(03:53):
degrees in Southbridge right now, seeing eighty one in Ipswich
south of Boston, eighty two in Stoughton, and in Boston
at eleven oh five. It is partly cloudy out there
and eighty two degrees.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Well.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
The twenty twenty six World Cup coming up in under
a year now, and with seven of the matches being
held right here in Massachusetts. In Foxboro, a US soccer
legend with local ties talk with wbz's Kyle Bray about
the growth of the game here in the US and
in Boston.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Christine Lilly won two World Cups and two Olympic gold
medals during a Hall of Fame career with the US
women's national team, but she was also one of the
original members of the old Boston and WSL team, the
Boston Breakers. The Breakers didn't last, but now Boston Legacy
FC is returning to carry the standard for them. Lily
says it's great that Pro women's soccer is returning to Boston.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
It's been a long time out. We needed the pro
team to return to Boston and it'll be exciting year
along with the World Cup as well.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
For the men.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
With Pro women's soccer returning, he had a World Cup
on the horizon, She says, both will help grow the
game in Massachusetts even more.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Back when I was younger, there wasn't a lot of
these soccer events going on in the United States. You know,
the World Cup was there, but it wasn't here on
ninety four, and obviously the Women's in ninety nine. So
I think for young people it's an exciting time because
those are the moments I'll remember when they get older
that they.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Oh, we had the World Cup, we.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Went to watch and all that.

Owner of a Brocton driving school, could end up facing
decades in prison, is after admitting to a bribery scheme
involving the Registry of Motor Vehicles. US attorney Lea Fully
says Carlos Cardoso pled guilty yesterday to mail fraud charges.
Fully says Cardoso paid off an examiner at the RMB
over a two year period to pass people who either
took their driving test and failed it, or in some cases,
(05:36):
never showed up to take it. Cardoso is set to
be sentenced on September eleventh in federal court. I meantime,
a new law is being put into place to stop
those habitual speeders.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
Once the law takes effect, courts in Virginia will be
able to require the installation of a device that monitors
and reports the habits of drivers who have been convicted
of speeding. The device in Washington State will actually prevent
the car from exceeding the speed limit. Governor Bobrigerson. What's
behind the spills, of course, a really simple goal, which
is to save lives. Other states, including California and Arizona,
(06:06):
are considering their own versions of intelligent speed assistance. Jim Ryan, ABC.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
News, And before we take a look at Bloomberg Business,
a former MTVVJ has died. Here's wbz's Drew mo'holland.

fear of radiation and had not been getting regular mammograms.
Ananda Lewis was very popular when MTV had a full
schedule of really big shows.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
I wanted to come to some girls out here, some
young women, because we see women taking over all industries.
And how do you feel about the collaborations.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Yeah, she'd hit the streets just like that. She'd go
to the beaches when MTV would get away from the studio.
Ananda Lewis was an MTV mainstay. Her death confirmed by
her sister on social media. Ananda Lewis was just fifty
two years.
