Home of Patriots’ Gronk robbed during Super Bowl week

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Police say the home of New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski was robbed while he was away at the Super Bowl.
Foxborough Police Chief William Baker confirmed Tuesday morning that his department is investigating a burglary at Gronkowski’s home.
He said officers responded to the home just after 6 p.m. Monday.
Baker said “out of respect for Mr. Gronkowski’s privacy and because this is an active and dynamic criminal investigation we’re not going to be releasing any information right now about what was stolen and whether any suspects exist.”
But in a recording of call between responding officers and dispatch, a dispatcher says “multiple safes and possibly guns” were taken.
Gronkowski had nine catches for 116 yards and two touchdowns in the Patriots’ 41-33 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.

Wolf To Release State Budget Today

Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf’s forthcoming budget plan will rely on improving tax collections and a Marcellus Shale natural gas tax to put more money into education, opioid-addiction prevention and social services. Wolf is scheduled to deliver his election-year budget and speak to a joint legislative session this morning. It comes after three years dominated by protracted stalemates with the Republican-controlled Legislature.

The Latest: House GOP working on averting another shutdown

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the budget battle in Congress (all times local):
8:25 p.m.
House Republican leaders have unveiled a plan to keep the government open for another six weeks while Washington grapples with a potential follow-up budget pact and, perhaps, immigration legislation.
GOP leaders have announced they would seek to pass the stopgap spending bill by marrying it with a full-year, $659 billion Pentagon spending bill that’s a top priority of the party’s legion of defense hawks.
The measure would keep the government running through March 23 and reauthorize funding for community health centers that enjoy widespread bipartisan support.
The Senate’s Democratic leader, Chuck Schumer, says that plan won’t fly in the Senate. But aides and lawmakers suggest the Senate might respond with a long-awaited spending pact to give whopping increases to the Pentagon and domestic programs.
