Fox News Channel co-host Kilmeade apologizes for remark about homeless people

Fox News co-host Brian Kilmeade apologized Sunday for suggesting homeless people who reject government assistance should be euthanized. 

Kilmeade, a co-host of the cable news network's morning show "Fox and Friends," made the comment Wednesday in a discussion about the recent, fatal stabbing of a young female Ukrainian immigrant on a Charlotte, North Carolina, commuter train, according to The Hill newspaper.

The man charged in the killing has a lengthy criminal record and a history of mental illness, but it appears unclear about whether he was homeless.
