Suspect to be arraigned in clinic shooting

The suspected gunman in the killing of an orthopedic surgeon in Tennessee is expected to be arraigned Thursday. Larry Pickens, 29, was charged with first-degree murder and aggravated assault for allegedly shooting and killing Dr. Benjamin Mauck while Mauk was treating him in an exam room. Police say the attack was targeted, but a motive remains unclear. Dale Lane, chief of police for the Collierville Police Department, joined CBS News to talk about the case.

"Tennessee Three" to meet with Biden on guns

The lawmakers dubbed the "Tennessee Three" will meet with President Biden at the White House Monday. The conversation will focus on how to move forward with common sense gun reform. Earlier this month, Democratic Reps. Gloria Johnson, Justin Jones and Justin Pearson all faced expulsion votes by the state legislature after joining a group of protesters at the state capitol following the mass shooting at a school in Nashville. Jones and Pearson were ousted from their roles and later reinstated by local councils. Johnson survived by a single vote and joined CBS News to talk about their upcoming meeting with the president.
