Patrick Sison - staff, APFILE - This Thursday, Dec. 17, 2020 photo shows the logo for the Robinhood app on a smartphone in New York. Stakes are rising in Massachusetts’ legal battle against Robinhood Financial, and regulators are asking for the popular trading app's brokerage registration to be revoked, which would effectively bar it from the state. Robinhood, meanwhile, calls the complaint brought by Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin's office elitist and based on a rule that should not apply in its case. It’s asking to move the issue to a state court, rather than continue to work through an administrative process.
BOSTON (WBZ) — A baby is hospitalized after being found with a dead woman in the transitional housing wing of a Boston YMCA facility.
Boston Police said they were conducting a death investigation on Huntington Ave. Thursday around noon. It is not clear how the woman died.
The YMCA director said the facility has a policy that if they don’t see a resident within 48 hours, they check on them. When someone checked on the woman’s apartment, they found her dead inside.
“Anyone who participates in the program, we check on them on a regular basis and we call those wellness checks,” said YMCA President James Morton. “So if we don’t see someone or they were supposed to participate in a meeting and didn’t show up, then we would go and check on them.”
The baby was taken to the hospital as a precaution.
