The suits allege that downed power lines operated by the company contributed to the deadliest U.S. wildfire in more than a century. The wildfire risk posed by aboveground power lines is well documented. Lives lost, billions in damagesThe Maui fires have killed at least 115 people with hundreds still missing. But Mitchell said insulating aboveground power lines with a protective covering is also an effective solution that is cheaper and can be rolled out more quickly. There is also technology coming to market that can de-energize power lines automatically when there's a problem, he said.

Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, suspect of the King Soopers grocery store shooting, appears in a Boulder County District courtroom at the Boulder County Justice Center in Boulder, Colorado, U.S. May 25, 2021. Matthew Jonas/Boulder Daily Camera/Handout via REUTERS/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsDENVER, Aug 23 (Reuters) - A man accused of killing 10 people in a 2021 supermarket shooting in Colorado has been determined competent to stand trial, the prosecutor's office said Wednesday. A judge had ordered Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa in December 2021 to undergo treatment at the state's mental hospital after ruling he was incompetent to stand trial following two court-ordered psychological evaluations. On Wednesday, Boulder District Attorney Michael Dougherty's office said the Colorado Department of Human Services had recently provided a re-evaluation report that concluded Alissa had been "restored to competency." Alissa is charged with 10 counts of first-degree murder stemming from the March 22, 2021 shooting at a King Soopers grocery store in Boulder, Colorado, about 28 miles (45 km) northwest of Denver.

☆ Colorado supermarket shooting suspect remains unfit for trial, judge says

BOULDER, Colo. — A man charged with killing 10 people at a Colorado supermarket nearly two years ago remains mentally incompetent to stand trial, a judge said Friday. Bakke said the latest report from the hospital finding Alissa incompetent also said he has a “reasonable likelihood” of reaching competency, an outlook also expressed in previous reports. Concerns about Alissa’s mental health were raised by his defense immediately after the March 2021 shooting. Competency is a different legal issue than a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity, which involves whether someone’s mental health prevented them from understanding right from wrong when a crime was committed. They said Alissa passed a background check to legally buy a Ruger AR-556 pistol six days before the shooting.

Procurorul districtual Michael Dougherty a anunţat că prezumtivul atacator a fost rănit şi se află în custodia poliţiei. Postul CNN, citând o sursă neidentificată din eşalonul superior la poliţiei, a relatat că arma folosită în atac a fost una de tip AR-15. Statul Colorado a fost scena unora dintre cele mai şocante atacuri în masă din istoria modernă a Statelor Unite. Preşedintele Joe Biden a fost informat despre schimbul de focuri, a indicat purtătoarea de cuvânt a Casei Albe, Jen Psaki. La rândul său, poliţia a deschis focul atunci când a ajuns în parking.
