NETANYAHU SPEECH
In Washington: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in Washington yesterday, in advance of his big speech tomorrow. Netanyahu will urge Congress to delay an upcoming deadline in the nuclear talks with Iran. The White House is more than miffed about the speech — at Netanyahu for giving it and at House Speaker John Boehner for arranging it without President Obama’s blessing. More than two dozen Democrats are skipping the speech, including Vice President Joe Biden, who apparently has more pressing business in Guatemala that day.

On video: A video captured the moments yesterday afternoon when Los Angeles police shot and killed a man in L.A.’s Skid Row neighborhood. The man was on the ground and may have been hit with a jolt from a Taser before the shooting. The video, shot by a bystander, shows the man in an on-the-street scuffle with police. After he falls to the ground, three sounds are heard in the video: the sound of a Taser, the blast of five gunshots — and the screams of bystanders. Los Angeles police said more details on the shooting will be released this morning.
