Obama Addresses Ray Rice Incident

BALTIMORE (WJZ) --- President Obama has addressed the Ray Rice domestic violence incident.

The president did an interview with ESPN radio Friday morning.

In his interview the president said, "Obviously the situation that happened in the Ray Rice family was unfortunate, but it did lift up awareness that this is a real problem that we've got to root out and men have to change their attitudes and behavior and it has to start young."

Rice was suspended and later reinstated from the NFL after video surfaced of him punching his wife.
