Police were sent to the high-rise near East Grant Street at 4:36 p.m. after reports of gunfire and found one person who had been shot. Three officers were injured; one was shot in the leg, another was being checked for an injury that was not life-threatening, and a third officer was in surgery last night.

The shooting brought a large police response, including SWAT vehicles, ambulances, and officers from several nearby agencies.
2 Lindsay Clancy Jury Still Deadlocked After Five Days
Jurors in Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial remained deadlocked as they ended a fifth day of talks yesterday, raising the chance that the case could end in a mistrial. The jury of nine women and three men had told Judge William Sullivan again yesterday that it could not reach a unanimous decision. Under Massachusetts law, a judge can ask a deadlocked jury to keep trying twice before a mistrial may be declared if they deadlock for a third time. Clancy, 36, is charged with killing her three children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan, at their Duxbury home in January 2023. Her defense says Clancy was suffering from postpartum psychosis, heard voices telling her what to do, and had been given too many medications. The trial also saw a separate courthouse incident on Tuesday, when 56-year-old Dawn Light was arrested after officials found photos and videos of people, including jurors, leaving court on her phone.
3 Dollar Coin With Trump's Face Goes Into Circulation
The U.S. Mint has put new $1 coins featuring President Donald Trump into circulation, making him the first living president to appear on a circulating U.S. coin in 100 years. The coins also mark the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and include the words "LIBERTY" and "IN GOD WE TRUST." They are legal tender, though rolls and bags cost more than face value through the Mint. The coins are gold-colored, not made of gold, and were produced in Philadelphia. Critics have questioned whether the design went through the proper review process.
