02:18 ICE agent fatally shoots woman in Minneapolis, sparking anger and protests

 

Good evening. We begin tonight here with the chaos unfolding after an ICE agent shoots and kills a woman in Minneapolis. Authorities say it happened during an immigration related operation.

 

Chilling video of the shooting now emerging on social media tonight. And a warning here. The images are disturbing.

 

The driver, a 37 year old woman behind the wheel of her SUV, partially blocking an intersection. Two federal agents try to open her door. You see the vehicle reverse and then drive forward.

 

reverse [rɪˋvɝs] v. 倒转

 

A third agent then opening fire, shooting multiple times, killing the driver, hitting her in the head. All of this playing out in front of protesters tonight. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem claiming the driver tried to run over ICE agents.

 

The mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, saying these claims of self-defense from ICE are, quote, a garbage narrative, telling ICE to get out of Minneapolis. ABC's Alex Perez leading us off from the scene tonight.

 

Tonight, protests and anger on the streets of Minneapolis after a federal agent shot and killed a woman this morning caught on horrific video posted on X. ICE claiming self-defense.

 

Local officials calling it reckless.

 

reckless [ˋrɛklɪs] adj. 不在乎的；鲁莽的

 

She appears to be a middle aged white woman.

 

The incident unfolding around 10 o'clock this morning.

 

The disturbing video posted on X shows the vehicle back up as an officer grabs a door. Then multiple shots, including through the windshield. The car accelerating and crashing.

 

It was horrible. I mean, she crashed her car into a parked car in front of me. A neighbor ran across the street and opened her car door to see if she could provide any assistance.

 

The angry crowd forced back, throwing snowballs, agents responding with pepper spray and tear gas.

 

There is nothing to indicate that this woman was the target of any law enforcement investigation or activity.

 

The Department of Homeland Security, who announced they were sending at least 2,000 agents to Minnesota this week to begin what they called their largest immigration operation to date, says agents acted in self-defense, claiming they were stuck in the snow when the woman attacked them.

 

They were attempting to push out their vehicle and a woman attacked them and those surrounding them and attempted to run them over and ram them with her vehicle.

 

Mayor Jacob Fry reacting to claims of self-defense did not mince words.

 

mince [mɪns] v. 矯揉造作地講（或做）

not mince words 直言不讳 (尤在指责某人或某事物时)

 

Having seen the video of myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is.

 

He had this message for ICE. To ICE, get out of Minneapolis. We do not want you here.

 

Governor Tim Walz urging calm but laying blame squarely at the Trump administration's feet.

 

squarely [ˋskwɛrlɪ] adv. 直截了当地; 坚定地；明确地

lay the blame at the feet of someone 把责任推到某人身上, 归咎某人

 

What we're seeing is the consequences of governance designed to generate fear, headlines and conflict. It's governing by reality TV.

 

And today, that recklessness cost someone their life.

 

And David, you can see demonstrators are still on the street here in Minneapolis. The victim has been identified as a 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good.

 

These demonstrators say they plan to stay on the streets until ICE leaves Minneapolis. David?

 

Alex Perez leading us off from Minneapolis tonight. Alex, thank you.

 

05:26 U.S. seizes Russian-flagged oil tanker in North Atlantic, second tanker in the Caribbean 08:40White House doubles down on plans to acquire Greenland as Republicans push back

 

Tonight, we have learned the U.S. has seized two oil tankers just hours apart, including a Russian-flagged vessel. And tonight, the new demand now coming in from the Kremlin. Authorities say both tankers are connected to Venezuela's oil trade.

 

U.S. European command says the Russian tanker was captured between Scotland and Iceland after spending weeks evading U.S. forces.

 

And dramatic video tonight showing an elite Coast Guard team also boarding that second tanker, an oil tanker in the Caribbean. That ship is now being escorted to the U.S. And tonight, what the Trump administration is now saying about the Venezuelan oil now in its possession. Here's Martha Raddatz.

 

Tonight, the bold U.S. seizure of two oil tankers accused of transporting sanctioned Venezuelan oil, including a Russian-flagged vessel that had been evading U.S. forces for weeks. U.S. helicopters swooping in during a dramatic predawn operation.

 

predawn [priˋdɔn] adj. 黎明前的

 

Elite Coast Guard forces rappelling onto the deck of the Sofia, a tanker sailing in international waters near the Caribbean.

 

rappel [ræˋpɛl] v. 用绳索（垂直）下降

 

Near Iceland, that Russian-flagged tanker seized, the Marinera, formerly known as the Bella One, being pursued by the U.S. Coast Guard.

 

That vessel also linked to Venezuela's illicit oil trade, eluding capture for weeks after an earlier attempt to seize the ship in the Caribbean did not succeed.

 

illicit [ɪˋlɪsɪt] adj. 非法的，不法的，违禁的

elude [ɪˋlud] v.（巧妙地）逃避，躲避

 

The crew hurriedly painting the Russian flag on the side of it, trying to deter a U.S. seizure. The Kremlin now demanding the safe return of that crew. The administration insisting this is all part of a larger plan to control Venezuela.

 

The way that we control Venezuela is we control the purse strings, we control the energy resources, and we tell the regime you're allowed to sell the oil so long as you serve America's national interest.

 

purse strings 缩合钱袋口的绳索；经济大权；财政

 

You're not allowed to sell it if you can't serve America's national interest.

 

Secretary of State Marco Rubio dismissing criticism from lawmakers who accused the administration of having no plan, today announcing a three-phase proposal for the future of Venezuela.

 

It's not just winging it. It's not just saying or speculating it's going to happen. It's already happening.

 

wing it 即兴表演；临时发挥; 即兴做

 

Rubio calling phase one stabilization, which would include the sale of roughly 30 to 50 million barrels of Venezuelan oil.

 

The White House saying the U.S. will share in the profits. Venezuelan state-run oil company confirming today it is negotiating that sale with the U.S.

 

The second phase, according to Rubio, recovery, which will open up Venezuela's oil market to American companies and others.

 

recovery [rɪˋkʌvərɪ] n. 恢复，复苏

 

The last phase, Rubio says, is transition, though no specifics were provided. Some Democrats tonight blasting the proposal.

 

This is an insane plan. They are talking about stealing the Venezuelan oil at gunpoint for a period of time undefined as leverage to micromanage the country.

 

And, David, tonight, the world seeing those dramatic images of U.S. forces seizing those tankers, which the White House is saying will continue despite the rising tensions with Russia. David.

 

Martha Raddatz live in Washington. Martha, thank you.

 

Meanwhile, tonight, the firestorm over Greenland is growing after the White House declared Greenland should be part of the U.S. Tonight, some key Republicans on the Hill pushing back, one senator calling this amateur hour, saying, quote, that is absurd.

 

firestorm [ˋfaɪr͵stɔrm] n.【美】大爆发; an intense or violent response

amateur hour 表现极不专业

 

Secretary of State Marco Rubio now says President Trump wants to buy Greenland. So how would that work? Rachel Scott at the White House.

 

Tonight, a growing number of Republicans denouncing the Trump administration's efforts to pressure Denmark, a NATO ally, into handing over Greenland. Republican Senator Tom Tillis attacking one of the president's top aides for declaring obviously Greenland should be part of the U.S.

 

top aide 组织内最高阶的幕僚

 

Turning around and making insane comments about how it is our right to have territory owned by the kingdom of Denmark. Folks, amateur hour is over.

 

Other Republicans criticizing the administration for refusing to rule out using the military to seize Greenland. Senator Mitch McConnell saying using force against an ally would be an especially catastrophic act of strategic self-harm to America.

 

House Speaker Mike Johnson insists taking Greenland by force is not a possibility. I don't think anybody's seriously considering that. And in the Congress, we're certainly not.

 

Tonight, Secretary of State Marco Rubio says what the president really wants to do is buy Greenland.

 

That's always been the president's intent from the very beginning.

 

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has not made it clear how the U.S. would even go about buying Greenland.

But Denmark has said Greenland is not for sale, David.

 

And Rachel Scott live at the White House. Thank you.

 

10:12 Nick Reiner's lawyer abruptly withdraws from murder case of Rob and Michele Reiner

 

In Los Angeles tonight, a major shake up in the case against Nick Reiner, accused of killing his parents, Director Rob Reiner and Michelle Reiner in their home.

 

Nick Reiner's high profile attorney, Alan Jackson abruptly withdrawing from the case just moments before Nick Reiner was to be arraigned on murder charges. Reiner has now been assigned public defenders in court.

 

Nick Reiner only spoke when agreeing to delay his plea. Now, his next court date is set for late February.

 

10:36 David Muir speaks with families impacted by California wildfires one year later

 

It was one year ago tonight. Los Angeles was burning homes, neighborhoods, entire communities consumed by flames. We were on the scene there for several days and promised then we would go back. Tonight, one year later, what we discovered on the very street where I was reporting from one year ago.

 

It was one year ago tonight. Los Angeles was on fire when we arrived at the deadly apocalyptic scene. And this is how we came on the air.

 

apocalyptic [ə͵pɑkəˋlɪptɪk] adj. 预示大灾难的，预言世界末日的

 

24 hours into this, you can feel the heat, the smoke, and you certainly can see the flames over my shoulder here. Home after home, continuing to burn to the ground. Fire embers sweeping down the street, the flames reaching the ocean.

 

ember [ˋɛmbɚ] n.（木柴的）余火，余烬

 

All this is going to be gone. We were on the ground with CAL FIRE Battalion Chief Brent Pasqua. The cars here charred.

 

char [tʃɑr] v. 把……烧成炭；把……烧焦

 

The charred cars where families simply stopped and got out to escape the flames. These people who were coming down from the hills here decided to give up because the fire was encroaching?

 

Right, right. The traffic was so bad they figured their chances were better getting out on foot and running the rest of the way out of here.

 

We walked through the darkened neighborhoods there, the smoke hovering above the homes, many still crackling from the flames.

 

An airline passenger capturing this harrowing view out his window. The sun low in the sky over Los Angeles reflecting a new reality, the most destructive wildfires in Los Angeles history.

 

The largest fire, the Palisades Fire, and the horror it left behind. Our team at KABC with the view from above, street after street, burned to the ground. In one neighborhood, we learned of neighbors texting one another, saving them from the flames.

 

This was the house here on the corner that began to burn and then they alerted everyone down the street to get out of their homes because they knew it was just a matter of time before the flames jumped from house to house, which is exactly what it did.

 

We remember the scope of the damage was difficult to put into words.

 

The cars here in the streets incinerated what's left of sort of the burned out charred metal frame here just sitting on the street here.

 

incinerate [ɪnˋsɪnə͵ret] v. 烧成灰；焚化

 

And if you look across the street, there's still some embers burning here.

 

We would learn that many of the families who lived on this street were watching that night. That's how they knew their homes were gone.

 

One year ago, we will never forget meeting this husband and father of two, Alessandra Vigilante.

 

Have you seen your house yet? He raced to the school to pick up his boys, his wife staying behind to grab their most important documents. I'm sorry.

 

Alessandra and his family lost everything.

 

I think it's impossible for people around the country to look at this and understand the scope of this devastation. Everything is gone.

 

Yeah. But you've got your boys and you've got your wife. Yeah, exactly.

 

Yeah. And we figured out the rest. We promised we would go back.

 

And one year later, on that same street, we meet up with Alessandra. Alessandra. Hey, David.

 

How you doing? Wow, that was a fast year, but not for you, right? No. Yeah. Unfortunately not.

 

There was little left. The white picket fence here, huh? Yeah. Yeah, that's still here.

 

picket fence 栅栏

 

Yeah. But that's it. He tells me it's been a real struggle.

 

Did the insurance company cover you? Yes. It's not been an easy process. You don't expect to have to discuss anything.

 

It's a total loss basically looking at every single detail that I can think of, from the handles that you had on the doors to the type of countertops.

 

countertop [ˈkaʊntɚtɑp] n.（厨房）操作枱，料理枱

 

And again, to me, that was mind-blowing because I'm like, well, when we signed the policy, that's the moment you should have decided whether my house was worth that much or not. Now it's too late.

 

mind-blowing [ˋmaɪnd͵bloɪŋ] adj. 令人印象深刻的；令人惊奇的

 

He says it's been a year-long battle. The final insurance check arriving just two weeks ago.

 

It's taken this entire year.

 

Oh, yes. To get the money, the value of the house. Literally, I got the last check like two weeks ago.

 

They have decided not to rebuild. They're simply trying to sell the lot. But it's not worth what it once was.

 

lot [lɑt] n.（作特定用处的）一块地

 

It's half of what the bank assessed the value of the lot, not the house. Just the lot, just four years ago. Half of what it was assessed at four years ago.

 

Just the land. That's a big loss. Oh, yes. It's huge.

 

And his is just one family story. There's Liz Jones across the street down the way, standing where her family home once stood.

 

That charred car we showed one year ago, it was her daughter's.

 

When you saw us walking past that burned-out car, you knew that was your daughter's car. Yeah, absolutely.

 

And is that when reality set in? 100%. So this is it? Yeah, this is it. Liz and her husband are determined to rebuild here, insurance covering it.

 

This is where they raised their family. So where was the front door? Well, that's a great question. I'm going to guess it was like here, maybe? Yeah.

 

And we noticed something else. She's been wearing for nearly a year. A year later, you're still wearing the Palisades. Of course.

 

The numbers are staggering here. Nearly 24,000 acres burned here in the Palisades fire alone.

 

Nearly 7,000 structures, most of them homes. We're back here on Hartsell Street where we were standing just one year ago, and you can see home after home wiped from the earth. For the families who live here along this street, the last year has been a struggle, deciding how to rebuild here.

 

The struggle for Alessandro, for Liz, and for Preston and Kelsey Hayes, who have two young children. Hi. Hi.

 

Hi. Are we the first visitors to your new home? Yes, welcome. They are rebuilding here.

 

It was one year ago wearing protective gear. They wondered if they would ever come back.

 

Were you concerned at all about the soil and what might be contaminated from the fires? Yeah, for sure.

 

And the tests? You did do the testing and you felt reassured by the tests? Yes.

 

But one year later, as they look out across their neighborhood, they know the reality.

 

It's been really eye-opening, right, to learn who's coming back and then who's going to just move on.

 

Liz is still down the street, but Alessandro and his family are next door. They're not coming back.

 

We want the community to be the same.I don't think it will be, unfortunately.

 

They know that Alessandro and his family are moving on.

 

I know this has been taxing on the family and on the marriage, too.

 

taxing [ˋtæksɪŋ ]adj. 负担重的；累赘的；艰难的，费劲的

 

Oh, yes. That's part of the layers of going through a disaster like this, isn't it? Yes, unfortunately, yes, very much so. And when you look out at this?

 

It's okay. It was a chapter of our life.

 

A chapter of their lives. So brave in Canada a year ago and Canada a year later as well.

 

The extraordinary strength of the families who survived those fires, it's quite something.

 

When we come back here tonight, the scare on the runway, the passenger jet landing, several tires blowing out, the terrifying landing, what passengers were forced to do. Also, the former college football star and NFL player in critical condition tonight, badly burned in a fire near his home and what we're learning about that fire tonight.

 

And the checks are going out, the Amazon settlement of $2.5 billion, what some customers are getting tonight. When we come back.

 

18:19 Plane tire blows out while landing at Atlanta airport

 

Tonight, the terrifying landing for passengers on a flight from Peru to Atlanta, the tires blowing out upon landing at Hartsfield Jackson Airport.

Passengers were then taken off of a Tom flight down the stairs. They say the plane was shaking, a restroom door breaking during landing.

 

18:34 Former NFL star Jordan Shipley in critical condition after Texas ranch fire

 

Former college football star Jordan Shipley is in critical condition tonight after being severely burned at his ranch near Austin, Texas.

His family says he was operating a machine when it suddenly caught fire. One of his workers driving him to the hospital, Shipley was a star wide receiver for the Texas Longhorns and went on to the NFL.

When we come back here tonight, the Amazon settlement of $2.5 billion, the checks are now going out and how much you could get.

 

And then you've got to see the great escape tonight where the dog was able to pull off.

 

19:01 Eligible Amazon customers begin receiving refunds from settlement

 

To the index of other news tonight, millions of Amazon customers are getting their cut now of a $2.5 billion settlement. Some eligible customers already receiving automatic refunds.
