Just a few Bronx news stories to get you caught up on this snow piled Friday afternoon.
A very important cautionary tale from yesterday. Two young Bronx girls collapsed from carbon monoxide poisoning after their mother left them in her running car while she dug it out of the snow. Problem was, fire officials said, the mom neglected to clean the tailpipe, causing carbon monoxide to flood the interior of the car. Both kids are in stable condition and are expected to be fine.
But let this be a stern reminder to all parents digging their cars out of this massive snow build-up: CLEAN THE TAILPIPE FIRST!
More on the death of former Bronx State Senator Guy Velella who died yesterday: Times, Wall Street Journal, NY1 and WNYC.
Bronx-born director Rashaad Ernesto Green recounts his experience showing his new Bronx-based movie "Gun Hill Road" at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah. At the end of the week, the movie was picked up by a startup distributor.
Upstate local governments are combining forces to clean up the Bronx River before the water even gets to the Bronx.
Enjoy the weekend.
