Philadelphia 2024 Olympic Bid, DA Seth Williams' Budget Reaction, Men Arrested in Hostage Incident

Philadelphia has joined 34 other cities across the country that would like to host the 2024 Summer Olympic Games. Mayor Michael Nutter submitted the bid on Monday and is honored that Philly is being considered. Philadelphia was considered for the 2016 Olympics that were ultimately awarded to Rio de Janeiro.

Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams is upset over Mayor Michael Nutter’s "flatlining" his budget. Williams says Nutter's process was "inadequate and disrespectful" and that he would need at least $2 million more than the $31.6 million proposed. Williams says he needs the funding to preserve “innovative programs” he has started.

Three men have been arrested for holding four adults and three children hostage. The suspects, Orlando McNeil, Daesean Smith and Dennis Redding allegedly broke into a residence in Levittown Sunday night, then forced one of the victims to with draw $80,000. While at the bank, the victim told the teller his friends and family were being held and the teller alerted police.
