00:36Good morning, I'm Craig DeGrelli.
00:38We begin this morning in Pennsylvania, where three police officers are dead, two others wounded,
00:43after a deadly shootout in rural York County near Harrisburg.
00:46Authorities say the suspect was also killed, shot by police, as officers tried to serve a warrant Wednesday afternoon.
00:53State Police Commissioner Colonel Christopher Parris says they were following up on a domestic violence investigation that began a day earlier.
01:01The two surviving officers were listed in critical but stable condition.
01:05Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro called for action to address the root causes of these kinds of tragedies.
01:11This kind of violence isn't okay.
01:16We need to do better as a society.
01:20We need to help the people who think that picking up a gun, picking up a weapon is the answer to resolving disputes.
01:29We need to do better when it comes to mental health.
01:31We need to do better when it comes to looking out for those who are in need, so we don't have to deal with tragedies like this.
01:40We've got to do better as a society.
01:42Shapiro said U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi personally called him after the shooting.
01:47Both the FBI and the ATF are now on the ground to support the investigation.
01:52Last night, look, law enforcement and emergency vehicles drove through the streets, lined with community members honoring the fallen officers.
01:59We are learning new details about the man accused of assassinating conservative activist Charlie Kirk,
02:06including the unusual terms he demanded before surrendering to police in Utah.
02:1122-year-old Tyler Robinson agreed to turn himself in, but only if the arrest was peaceful.
02:18Washington County Sheriff Nate Brooksby says he got a call from a retired detective Thursday, the night after the shooting,
02:24saying Robinson was ready to surrender, but he feared being killed by a SWAT team.
02:30He knew he was going to get caught.
02:32He didn't want a big SWAT team hitting his parents' house or his apartment.
02:35He was truly fearful of being shot by law enforcement, so that the conditions were as relaxed and comfortable and almost to the point of, you know, inviting.
02:45The sheriff says late Thursday night, Robinson was driven to the station by his parents and the retired detective,
02:51who knew the family through a religious group.
02:54Detectives in plainclothes met him outside and escorted him into a secure interview room
02:59to await the arrival of state and federal agents early Friday morning.
03:04The sheriff credits his former colleague for defusing a potentially dangerous situation through community ties and trust.
03:11Robinson is charged with aggravated murder, obstruction, witness tampering, and committing a vile defense in front of a child.
03:18And this is making the rounds big time this morning.
03:22ABC has pulled the plug on Jimmy Kimmel, taking his late night show off the air indefinitely over comments he made about the murder of Charlie Kirk,
03:31which sparked furious backlash.
03:34It started Monday when Kimmel accused, quote,
03:36The MAGA gang of trying to score political points off Kirk's assassination and implied the shooter was one of them.
03:44The comments triggered outrage on the right and action.
03:48FCC chair Brendan Carr threatened regulatory pushback against ABC, calling Kimmel's remarks part of a, quote,
03:55Concerted Lie.
03:56Then, Nexstar, one of the largest owners of ABC affiliates, announced it would preempt the Jimmy Kimmel show starting that night.
04:04Disney followed suit, yanking Kimmel's show off the air for the foreseeable future.
04:10Kimmel was spotted leaving his theater Wednesday with his head down, wearing a black hat and plaid shirt.
04:15As protesters gathered outside, including one woman in a Statue of Liberty crown holding a broken heart sign right there.
04:24Meanwhile, from Windsor Castle, President Trump celebrated the news on Truth Social, posting great news for America.
04:31Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done.
