Denise nakano. Fidel castro is one of the eras most globalizing figures, reactions to his death range from mourning to celebration. On the left mourning in cuba. The nation has declared nine days of National Mourning and on the right, the opposite reaction in miami. People there celebrating in the streets today. During Fidel Castros rule thousands of cubans escaped the communist island to freedom in florida. We bring coverage with nbc 10s chris pollone. Thousands poured into the streets of miamis Little Havana as news of Fidel Castros death spread. A day many cuban americans have anticipated for years. Im 34 years old. Ive been waiting all my life for this moment. Castros rice to power tore families apart. Millions fled the island as the communist dictator seized the press and jailed dissidents. This something that were celebrating because he has caused pain on all generations of cubans. Cubanamerican leaders in congress agree. The truth is that he was a sadistic murderer who brought great suffering to the 11 Million People of cuba. He should not be revered. He should be reviled. All that it has caused, is sadness, tragedy, his death, terrorism and narco trafficking that is the legacy of fidel castro. President obama who moved to normalize relations with cuba was more measured, saying history will record and judge the enormous impact of this singular figure on the people and world around him while president elect donald trump said, Fidel Castros legacy is one of firing squads, theft, unimaginable suffering, poverty and the denial of fundamental human rights. As they celebrate, cubanamericans fear little will change in cuba soon. Castros brother raul remains president , but hes 85 and said hell retire in 2018. So now theres hope for the future. Chris pollone, nbc news, new york. The u. S. And cuba have had an icy relationship for more than five decades. And early 1961, president eisenhower closed the u. S. Embassy in havana and severed diplomatic relations with cuba because of castros close ties to the soviet union. Months later the world was brought to the brink of nuclear war after president kennedy okd a failed u. S. Backed invasion of cuba. And only last year president obama reopened a u. S. Embassy there. Now many cubanamericans around the country and here at home are hoping castros death brings about change. Reporter christian cassadas from telemundo 62 talks to one south jersey lead another claims castro changed her family forever. What castro has done to my family is separated my family. She says the reason shes in the you sats is because of fidel castro after her parents fled a communist cuba. My parents couldnt go back and forth to cuba. If my grandmother was dying, my father couldnt see her. They separated a family and brought a lot of pain. Pain she says was her fuel when she came to this new country from her home tone of colon. Now making history along the way as the first spanish woman to serve in Public Office in mercer county. Her smile isnt the only one. It was something surreal, i waited my whole entire life for this man to pass. Inside this cuban restaurant, the feeling of hope and a new beginning reflected on their smiles as the business is serving one free drink in light of whats to come. Its kind of a little anticlimactic, because hes out of power essentially for ten years, but something that Cuban Exile Community has been waiting for for close to 60 years. A change this local leader says was surreal as she explained what was happening to her children. 12yearold and i said, im happy. Im happy. And i dont want to feel happy about somebody being dead. But i actually feel happy that hes gone. For all the horrible things hes done to so many people. Councilman shurmur said she hopes to one day be able to visit cuba but knows that her life would be completely different, maybe even behind bars if she would have stayed in that country. Mainly because she considers herself very opinionated. To recap, former cuban dictator fidel castro has been died at the age of 90 hell be buried a week from tomorrow. A man is is dead after a fivehour standoff with Philadelphia Police after a wooded area of roxboro. He died from a selfinflicted gunshot. Dozens of police, firefighters and members of the marine unit rushed to ma home on river road after neighbors reported hearing shots. Investigators told us as many as 70 gunshots were fired from inside. After searching the woods behind the home, police found the suspect dead. Ive never seen so many police and swat and were you afraid when you heard he had a lot of weapons . Yes. Weve been afraid of him for a long time. Its not clear what prompted the standoff. Police say they visited the house previously for a nuisance call. A mans body floating in the body near the Market Street bridge around 10 00 a. M. , he was taken to the hospital and pronounced dead. So far police are not saying who he is or how he died. Two people are in the hospital following a shootout involving police in kensington. Authorities say two officers were on patrol on clementine street at 10 30 when they saw a man tuck a gun into his waistband. Police chased the man and they say he started firing and police fired back and shot the suspect who is now in critical condition. An innocent bystander was also struck and shes going to be okay.

Nearly three weeks after her election defeat, Hillary Clintons campaign is now getting behind an election recount effort. Clintons camp announced saturday it intends to back the recount in the battleground state of wisconsin. That effort was spearheaded by green Party President ial candidate jill stein. The recount was put into motion friday after stein raised more than 5 million for the effort. And now the recount process could begin as soon as next week. Stein also wants a recount in michigan and in pennsylvania. Now clinton leads the National Popular vote over president elect donald trump by nearly two million votes. But mr. Trump picked up 290 electoral votes compared to clintons 232. Now president elect donald trump issued a statement today, calling the recount effort ridiculous.
