WRAL's Kirsten Gutierrez was there when Raleigh Police Chief Cassandra Deck-Brown met with protester Conrad James. They spoke and Deck-Brown took a list of demands from James.

A MARION BALDWIN CALLED IT A DIFFICULT DECISION AND PRAISE THE PEACEFUL NATURE OF YESTERDAY'S PROTEST. SHE SAID, QUOTE, THIS IS EXACTLY HOW WE BEGIN TO BUILD ANYWAY TOGETHER. AND, THAT SHE IS EXTENDING THE CURFEW TO PROVIDE SAFETY FOR THOSE WHO PROTEST, SAFETY FOR THOSE WHO PROTECT US, AND SAFETY FOR ALL WHO CALL RALEIGH HOME. TONIGHT, WE WILL HEAR FROM THE RALEIGH'S POLICE CHIEF, FOR THE FIRST TIME AFTER THE CITY AND LAMENTED IT'S CURFEW, IT'S A CONVERSATION YOU WILL ONLY HEAR ON WRAL. CHRISTIAN GUTIERREZ JOINS US LIVE  WITH THE STORY, >> WHEN WE ARRIVED TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AROUND 3:30 THERE WAS ONLY ONE PROTESTER HERE, COMMUNITY ORGANIZER HIS NAME IS CONRAD JAMES. NOW, HE SAYS HE GOT THE TIMES MIXED UP SO HE WAS HERE EARLY WAITING FOR OTHER PROTESTERS. BUT, DESPITE TIMES ON THE DOOR THAT SAYS DUE TO CORONAVIRUS THE BUILDING IS CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC, JAMES WENT INSIDE AND WAS ASKED TO LEAVE SEVERAL TIMES BY POLICE. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE VIDEO, HE IS TAKEN OUTSIDE BY AN OFFICER AND MOMENTS LATER ANOTHER OFFICER MET WITH JAMES AND JAMES THEN HANDED THAT OFFICER A PIECE OF PAPER. IT WAS A LIST OF DEMANDS THAT HE AND OTHERS WOULD LIKE THE RALEIGH POLICE CHIEF TO SUPPORT. ONE OF THE DEMANDS INCLUDED A MANDATORY MINIMUM SENTENCING OF FIVE YEARS FOR OFFICERS WHO KILL UNARMED CIVILIANS. AND, WHILE HE WAS EXPLAINING OTHER ITEMS ON THE LIST TO US, THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED. >> I GOT YOUR REQUEST. >> I APPRECIATE THAT. >> WE WILL LOOK AT IT. BUT, YOU KNOW, I THINK WHAT IS MORE IMPORTANT, SO THAT YOU UNDERSTAND, I DON'T CONDONE THIS. I DON'T CONDONE ANY OFFICER TAKING LIFE. >> I UNDERSTAND, BUT YOUR SUPPORT WOULD BE A GOOD STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. >> A PLEDGE OF SUPPORT CAN ALSO REFLECT SOMETHING EVEN GREATER THAN THIS. >> RIGHT, EXACTLY. >> I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE ASSESS IT, BUT I THINK IT IS ALSO EVEN MORE IMPORTANT THAT YOU UNDERSTAND, THAT I DO NOT CONDONE THE TOPS AND THE THINGS THAT WE ALL KNOW THAT WHAT WE SAW HAS TURNED ALL OF OUR HEARTS. >> DEFINITELY. >> SO, WE WILL CONTINUE TO WORK TO DO BETTER. >> AWESOME. >> AND BUILD RELATIONSHIPS. >> YES. >> AFTER THIS INTERACTION, JAMES CALLED OFF THE OTHER PROTESTERS, AND LIKE YOU JUST HEARD IN THAT SOUNDBITE, THE CHIEF DID SAY SHE WILL ASSESS THE RISK OF DEMANDS, JAMES HOPES THAT SHE WILL SUPPORT THE PLEDGE IN THE COMING DAYS. BACK TO YOU. >> A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO SEE

I'm meteorologist K Campbell in the wr a severe weather center starting a new week on Monday. So here's what to expect as you gear up for the new week. Rain chances will be climbing, especially Tuesday and Wednesday. We are going to get a nice little break from the heat this week. So enjoy the spring like weather while it's here with us no more nineties on our seven day forecast, I would say the best days to be out and about do anything outside look like they're gonna be on Monday and Thursday of this week. So here's this set up. We've got a lot of moisture and rain falling in parts of Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas. Right now, we're going to see all the moisture from this system and some of the energy make it to North Carolina starting Monday night, Monday during the day, things should be dry. We've got this area of high pressure overhead but we will begin to see an increase in cloud cover throughout the day. And then late Monday night, we'll see a warm front lift through the area that could generate some spotty light showers overnight into Tuesday. And then during the day. Tuesday, we've got more lift in the atmosphere. It's a cloudy day, a much cooler day and we should see rain on and off throughout the day. But rain is likely you'll at least get a period of rain. Tuesday. More than likely it's, there should still be some breaks in the rain at least. And then some thunderstorms could be mixed in as well. This is as far out as that high resolution model goes right now, but we've got a nice break from the heat coming our way. 79 is our normal high. This time of year, we're going to be near or slightly above normal most days. The exception is Tuesday with the highest rain chances, temperatures will be a little cooler just 73 for the high tonight. It's a cool night, really, comfortably cool. Enjoy it while you can. It's probably one of our last ones of the season. Upper forties to lower fifties across the area tonight. 50 Raleigh 49 in Rocky Mount. And for your Monday forecasts, ties are in the upper seventies for Roxboro and South Hill. 81. The high in Durham, Raleigh Rocky Mountain, Southern Pines, 82 degrees in Fayetteville and Goldsboro. Your seven day forecast looking pretty nice. But we've got rain chances coming our way Tuesday and we'll see some scattered storms on Wednesday as well. It's about a 60% chance Wednesday, but an 80% chance Tuesday, Thursday, rain chances are lower at just 20%. 82 degrees and partly cloudy Friday late in the day into Saturday, we could see some scattered storms move in. Not looking like a washout though. It does look like we'll have a drier into next weekend. 84 partly cloudy next Sunday.
