Morning Headlines: Correction Officers’ Comp Claims Soar, Wynn Drops Hudson Yards Casino Plan, and Fleet Week Begins with Tragedy

From NYC NOW WNYC
New York City’s Department of Investigation says workers’ comp claims by correction officers cost the city more than $340 million last fiscal year. Meanwhile, Wynn is pulling out of its bid to build a casino in Hudson Yards as a major housing project in the neighborhood moves forward. Federal officials are also investigating a close call between two planes at LaGuardia Airport. Plus, Fleet Week kicks off tomorrow with the annual Parade of Ships, following a deadly crash involving a Mexican navy ship over the weekend.
