Carter evans among the throngs of shoppers tonight. Carter, thank you. Getting to the store today was a problem in some places as the storm that dumped snow in the west moved into the great plains. Driving was difficult as snow covered roads in nebraska, northwest of omaha. Winter storm warnings were up in much of that state, as well as iowa. There is concern freezing rain could bring down power lines. In chicago, Holiday Shopping downtown could be affected tomorrow by a large protest over the shooting death of a black teenager by a white police officer. The past two nights have seen small, mostly peaceful demonstrations. This followed the release of a video showing officer Jason Van Dyke shooting Laquan Mcdonald 16 times. Van dyke has been charged with murder. In minneapolis, protesters and Community Groups shared thanksgiving dinner outside a police station. The protesters have been camped out there for more than a week after 24yearold jamar clark was shot and killed during a struggle with police. Some witnesses said clark was handcuffed at the time.

Pope francis is preaching a message of peace on his first visit to africa. He said his first mass there today in kenya. Hell also be making stops in uganda and the Central African republic. Allen pizzey is with the pope in reporter the traditional african welcome was a joyous reflection of how pope francis message is being received. A kenyan newspaper summed it up as our politicians could learn a thing or two from him. On his first trip to africa, francis urged kenyans to help bridge the increasingly violent divisions between muslims and christians. All too often, he said, young people are being radicalized in the name of religion to sow discord and fear. Kenya suffered at the hands of islamic extremists which the alshabaab militia slaughtered 147 mainly christian students at a university earlier this year and then killed 67 people in an attack on a Shopping Mall here in 2013. Francis called the attacks barbarous, and said that gods name must never be used to justify hatred and violence. Himself could be a prime target. Some 10,000 police and army troops are on duty. Rain turned the grounds where todays mass was held into a quagmire, but rain is also considered a blessing here, so it didnt dampen the mood. And using words that will resonate with the deeply conservative african catholic church, francis called on kenyans to resist practices which foster arrogance in men, hurt or demean women, and threaten the life of the innocent unborn. Pope francis is also using this trip to push his message of concern for the environment, but in a region wracked by ethnic and interreligious violence, it is inevitably his calls for peace and reconciliation that strike the most vibrant chord. Allen pizzey, cbs news, nairobi. Drone sales are taking off. Thats next. So how ya doing . Enough pressure in here for ya . Ugh. My sinuses are killing me. Yeah.

And one company, dji, produces 70 of all civilian drones in the world in shenzhen, china. Were an international company. Reporter that china part is not highlighted by dji Public Relations director michael perry. There are americans who are concerned when every other Chinese Company that controls this much of the market. We have an International Footprint that reflects our international character. Reporter but dji now has to contend with islamic militants using drones on the battlefield. Is there a moral dilemma when your drone is being used by terrorists like isis . Its certainly something that we think about, but as were going along, were looking at options for optimizing it specifically for creativity and innovation. Reporter thats where product designer paul pan comes in. Basically, when you make a product you never want to handicap the product. Reporter pan explained how using gps technology, dji can program drones so they cannot fly near sensitive sites, but security concerns were raised when a dji drone landed near the white house in january. Is it bad for business when one of your drones shows up on the white house lawn . It is bad in that we feel that there is only so much that we can do to control the aircraft, but then its really coming down to education, what you should and shouldnt do. Reporter regulators are playing catchup with drone technology. What do you really wish a drone could do that it just cant do . If i can take the flying camera and have it autonomously do its own thing. If i say, follow me all day and dont bump into anything that would be the ultimate product.

The Washington Redskins tweeted out, happy thanksgiving along with the teams controversial logo. Many native american groups have been pushing for the team to change its name. One follower called the team the most tone deaf company in america. In his radio address today, president obama said thanksgiving is a day for food and football. It was also a day to say thank you. He telephoned 10 members of the military this morning from the oval office to wish them a happy holiday and thank them for their service.

Reporter these stars are part of an effort to convince food buyers that what counts is how something tastes, not how it looks. Reporter that little imperfection, retailers and food service will reject it. Reporter ron clark is cofounder of imperfect produce, which buys fruits and vegetables that farmers cant sell to supermarkets because it isnt perfect. Look, look, whats wrong . Just that little imperfection means youre not going to get to eat this. Reporter if not for clarks company, much of the food would end up at the dump. Each year, some six billion pounds of food farmers cant sell or give away to food banks ends up as waste.

Reporter imperfect produce has been in business for just four months. Already it sells more than 10,000 pounds a week to customers who pay about half the usual price for taking something unusual.

Prime minister Angela Merkel wants to send reconnaissance aircraft, tanker planes and warships to aid the international coalition. The plan still has to be approved by the german parliament, but thats expected within the next few days. French president Francois Hollande is in moscow for meetings with russian president vladamir putin. Putin said hes ready to cooperate with france and the u. S. In the battle against the Islamic State but says hes still waiting for an apology from turkey for shooting down a russian fighter plane. Turkeys president said he telephoned putin, who wouldnt take the call. Holly williams reports from istanbul. Reporter both turkey and russia are pushing their version of events, following the shooting down of that russian warplane. Turkey said the plane strayed just over a mile into its air space for just 17 seconds. And now turkey has released this muffled and distorted audio recording, which it says is one of ten warnings given to the russian pilots. [ speaking in Foreign Language ] the russian pilot who survived has told joumpbl journalists he did not receive any warnings and did not cross into turkish air space. Now, this looked like a very dangerous situation just 24 hours ago, with one of the russian pilots killed and the russian president , vladamir putin, threatening serious consequences. But its now clear that all of the parties involved in this drama, including turkeys nato ally, the u. S. , want to avoid a conflict. But that doesnt solve the underlying problem, which is the syrian civil war. The u. S. , russia, turkey, iran, and other countries have all taken sides in syrias war.

Brussels has been on virtual lockdown for the past week. Schools were closed. So were subways and some stores. Public gatherings were banned. Andre, the former head of the governments Intelligence Unit that tracked islamic extremists, he told us the government may have overreacted initially, or that the police raids have turned up new details.

[ gunfire ] police are still hunting for two paris suspects, Salah Abdeslam and mohammed abrini. They both lived in the brussels neighborhood of molenbeek, which has gained a reputation for being a jihadi hotbed. A month before the attacks, the mayor received a list of 80 militants from belgian lists. Salah abdeslam was on the list, so was the suspected ringleader, abdelhamid abaaoud. But she says it was not her job to track down terrorists. It is up to the federal police, she said, to carry out actions like identification, arrest, and interrogation. And she claimed police had received the same information. Two weeks on, police are still no closer to finding Salah Abdeslam. The countrys Justice Minister says he must have a large terror cell assisting him, because it would be impossible for him to hide for this long on his own. In northern iraq, u. S.
