History unfolds in NYC for Trump's criminal trial while tensions brew in the Mideast

In this edition of Eyewitness News Extra Time, we detail an historic day as former President Donald Trump and his attorneys entered the courtroom to face criminal charges.

The day ended without any jurors being chosen, but not before Trump's attorneys asked the judge to recuse himself, which he refused. While this played out in court, protestors were outside the courthouse in Manhattan. Some supported Trump, while others blasted him.
