The Update- October 15th

The Update with Brandon Julien

It’s a sticky-fingered situation. Manhattan’s only Costco may have a shoplifting problem, it’s been revealed, months after rampant theft allegedly drove the Target next door to close — and even after the company has bragged that their closed-door policy has helped them to steer around the recent retail crime epidemic. In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Tuesday, a Big Apple mother was arrested and charged in the death of her 4-year-old son a day after the tot was found severely malnourished and freezing with a burn mark on his chest, according to cops. In Queens, a 9-year-old girl and a male relative were struck by falling window glass that was blown out of an eight-story apartment building as strong winds battered the Big Apple. And in non-presidential news in Decision 2024, Republican Sen. Ted Cruz and Democratic Rep. Colin Allred will meet tonight in the only debate of their Texas Senate race that could help determine which party controls the U.S. Senate.
