All right, now in London,

King Charles the Third's coronan

the middle of the so we won't be there.
And to see that they will have to go.
Savannah will be there,
Savannah will be there, the entire crew.
So it's. Going to be the eyes oe
world are going to be on that tomorrow.
It'll be cool. It is the first
time because it was so long ago
when Queen Elizabeth was corny.
So for a lot of us, this is 70 years.
Thank you producers.
For a lot of us is the first ti.
Yeah, definitely some
history coming up here.
Let's talk about what's going on
here in our neck of the woods, .
Some rain chances moving
into the forecast, we're
sure, But at least right now wen
tap into a little bit of sunshi.
Good morning to you. Sun is up 51. It feels
like the air temperature this morning.
But that northeast breeze is very comfortable
at 9 mph the morning drive. If e
sky kind of looking like how
it's looking now. Partly cloudy,
mostly cloudy skies by lunchtim.
We're already looking at overcat
skies for the lunch hour.
So if you are planning to step ,
you'll plan for rain after 2:00.
That's when rain chances go up.
The chance for Thunder
also there as well today.
Now we're not looking at
widespread conditions.
The best threat for numerous coverage
with the rain showers overnight tonight.
Tomorrow we'll rinse and repeat
with another threat for showers
and storms isolated again on Su.
And even into early next
week. I'll keep you updated
on that, Megan.
All right. It's been a beautiful
morning out there on the roads.
We don't have any crashes
to report at this moment.
If you want to take a look at
your typical route into work,
I also want to show you this morning, let's
take a look up by the Forest Lake 35 split.
It is moving really well up there this
morning, 35 southbound, this is at Hwy.
97. And then over to the Blaine area,
if your route takes you through that.
Through that area.
This is 10 heading West.
This is at Airport Road.
Again, No crashes to report this morning.
I'll keep an eye on things,
Megan. Thank you. Let's turn now
to our top story here at six.
Minneapolis is on the rebound.
Those words coming from Mayor Jb
Fry lesson 24 hours ago during s
State of the City address. Now
one area is crime, and Fry says
he has numbers to back that up.
Cc's in Minneapolis right now.
CC, you've been looking at those
numbers for the past few hours .
What can you tell us?
Hi, good morning.
Well, because of the pandemic,
this was Mayor Fry's first in
person address since 2019.
But when he was talking about public safety,
he was comparing where we are no
where we were at this point last year.
So let's take a look at some of the numbers
The mayor said homicides,
shootings, shots, fired
calls and carjackings and robbe,
they're all down from this time last year.
More specifically,
he says homicides are down 43%,
the number of people shot is down 32%,
carjackings down 41% and
robberies lastly here down 24%.
These new numbers are out just
days after 45 people were chargd
in a crackdown on violent St.
gangs in the city.
Now all these latest numbers show growth.
Mayor Fry says the city's work isn't done.
So in the area of safety, we are also
on a rebound. Are we there yet?
No. Better does not mean good.
Better does not mean we're
at where we need to be.
And we're moving our hand,
washing our hands clean and
taking another on another issue.
Safety will still be critical,
but we are trending in the right direction.
Now the one crime that isn't
going down is car theft.
So coming up in about 30 minute,
we're going to take a deeper
look into why that crime is
rising so rapidly, guys.
All right. CC live in Minneapol.
Thanks for that update.
We'll take a look at this new vo
we got in just a couple of hours ago.
This is a motorcycle crash that happened
on Anoka County near Round Lake Blvd.
And Northdale Blvd. last night.
You see that circle there
showing where that happened?
It appears the light was red when the
motorcyclist entered the intersection.
At this point,
we don't know the condition of
the person riding that motorcyc.
We're waiting to hear back from police.
Hopefully they're okay.
We'll update you as soon as we learn more.
Heads up. If you live in the Otsego area,
investigators want you to stay
away from this site right here.
A home exploded there.
This is right on the Hennepin
and Wright County border.
What you're looking at is what's
left of the home right now.
Investigators are trying to
figure out how it happened.
They did tell us no one was inse
the home when the explosion hapd
this morning. The man suspectedf
setting fires at 2 Minneapolis mosques
now faces a federal hate crime charge.
the US attorney in Minnesota says Jackie
Little was specifically targeting mosques.
Prosecutors say Little was
seen on camera at 2 mosques in
Minneapolis before the fires be.
Federal and state prosecutors are still
investigating and looking at other charges.

Just a heads up,
I want to let you know about soe
construction going on in Elk Ri.
So no more stopping at every single stoplight
when you're going through Elk River 169.
Redefine is currently in motion,
so this will affect Main Street
through 197th in Elk River.
That means though that it is its
down to one lane in each direct.
So just make sure that you
are packing your patients.
As you are heading through that area,
big changes ahead for that
corridor in the coming year.
So this is actually a project that's going
to be going on until November of next year.
So it's going to look much difft
in that area as time goes on.
Let's take a look right now across the metro.
It is a great morning out there on the roads.
We don't have any crashes at this moment.
I will keep an eye on things
