Rouge Police Shoot Black Man; Global Markets Sink Over Renewed Brexit Fears
HOWELL: (Video playing) We are following the story of an African-American man killed by police in Louisiana. His family set to hold a news conference at city hall in Baton Rouge in just a few hours' time. It's the moment captured on video that shows when police shot Alton Sterling in front of a convenience store -- graphic video. Authorities say officers responded when an anonymous caller reported that a man selling C.D.'s outside the store had pointed a gun at someone. Witnesses say the officer tried to taser the suspect but when the shock didn't disable him they tackled Sterling and then this happened.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Oh.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Oh.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Oh my God.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: They shot him?</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Yes.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Oh my goodness.</s>CPL. L'JEAN MCKNEELY, BATON ROUGE POLICE SPOKESMAN: This is an ongoing investigation. We're going to review the video, we're going to review the audio. We have witnesses -- non-biased witnesses here. We're going to bring them down to our station and interview them.</s>MIGNON CHAMBERS, SHOOTING VICTIM'S SISTER: I really want to know more about what happened about the whole situation because my brother didn't deserve it.</s>HOWELL: Family members there demanding answers. We froze that disturbing video just a split second before the fatal shot. Keep that in mind. Late last night, though, more than 100 people gathered outside that store to protest the shooting. Some people carried signs, chanting "black lives matter" and "hands up, don't shoot".</s>ROMANS: All right, the University of Tennessee has settled a lawsuit filed by six women who claim they faced a hostile environment at the school. That is, after they filed sexual assault allegations against student athletes. According to court documents obtained by ESPN, the school will pay the women nearly $2.5 million. The university is not admitting guilt in that settlement.</s>HOWELL: Sandy Hook families finally getting their day in court. Depositions are set to begin today in their lawsuit against gun manufacturer, Remington. They made the Bushmaster semi-automatic rifle that Adam Lanza used, as you'll remember, in the elementary school massacre that killed 20 first-graders and six educators in 2012. The suit claims that the company knew the rifle was meant for the military and that it was too dangerous to sell to civilians.</s>ROMANS: All right, 48 minutes past the hour. Time for an EARLY START on your money this morning. The aftershocks of the Brexit vote still rattling global markets. Dow futures right now are down. Stock markets in Europe dropping. Stock markets in Asia closed lower overnight. Investors are fleeing the British pound, pushing it to a new 31-year low against the dollar. Back here in the U.S. the Dow has posted triple-digit moves seven out of the past eight sessions. It's been wild, folks. All but one of those are gains or losses of more than one percent. So how do you protect your investments in this wild stock market -- this could go on for months, frankly -- diversify. Research from Wells Fargo shows most diversified accounts are still higher for the year. Investors, meanwhile, rushing into some safer options. The yield on the 10-year Treasury bond is the lowest ever. A record low right now, 1.33 percent. When there's more demand for bonds the yield goes down, when there's less demand it goes up, as you know. The good news for many Americans was bond yields are tied to mortgage rates, so mortgage rates are low, low, low, but low bond yields, bad news for banks so watching very carefully what these very low interest rates mean.</s>HOWELL: That's right. Well, time to take a look now at what's coming up on "NEW DAY". The one and only Chris Cuomo is joining us now live. Chris, a lot to talk about today.</s>CHRIS CUOMO, CNN ANCHOR, "NEW DAY": Good to see you both. Absolutely, we have a lot of breaking news that's happening at this hour. Protests, as you mentioned, George. A call for an investigation after a police shooting in Baton Rouge where a black man was shot and killed. We're going to show you the cell phone video that captures a lot of this confrontation, and it's a big reason that there is so much outrage. Plus, the FBI decision about Hillary Clinton's email issues. Now, Donald Trump is reacting very strongly. We'll have lawmakers from both sides of the aisle talking about how this controversy plays out as a political question. We're also going to have lawyers take it on because this was a legal determination, so we'll show you both sides of this. Everyone's going to talk about it in terms of politics, Christine, but this was legal determination --</s>ROMANS: Yes.</s>CUOMO: -- made by the FBI and we'll take you through what the different elements were.</s>ROMANS: All right, Chris Cuomo, thanks for that. Can't think of anybody better to do it, thanks. All right, millions of Americans will be making one of the worst investments ever this week. What could it be? Why are so many of you --</s>HOWELL: I get it.</s>ROMANS: -- making this bad investment? We'll have an early start on your money, next.
