"I felt like I was going to die. My body just went numb after a while. I was just waiting for it to be over."

High School Basketball Fight

It was chaos at a high school basketball game on Long Island when a violent melee broke out during an intense game between Southampton and Wyandanch.

A student in the stands suffered a concussion and several security guards were hurt. Police are investigating, but have made no arrests.

Walking Off the Job

More than a hundred public defenders walked off the job and gathered in the Bronx, after a so-called "dreamer" wrapped up a court appearance... and was greeted by immigration enforcement agents.

Aboubacar Dembele appeared in court regarding a fight on a bus. As he was detained, the attorneys protested. They say ice agents now troll local courthouses.
