russian mercenary troops in bakhmut says he is pulling his forces out. and just days before title 42 rules run out at the southern border, republicans and democrats are finally working together on a fix for immigration. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. happy friday, i m christine romans. we start with the special forces manhunt for a killer in a country that is not used to seeing mass murders. the manhunt now over with the arrest of a man suspected of killing at least eight people and wounding 13 others just south of serbia s capital. this is their second mass shooting in as many days. scott mclean is live near one of the sites of the attack. in the united states unfortunately we re numb to this kind of thing here, but this is really unusual for serbia. what can you tell us? reporter: yeah, people were
