Court documents state that Sawchak shot his neighbor in the neck with a firearm from an open upstairs window. Moturi told them that his neighbor had threatened to shoot him “if he touched a specific tree.” While Moturi was cutting the tree, he was shot. The chief said Sawchak has not been arrested because he is “mentally ill” and possesses firearms. O’Hara said anyone who suggests that police do not want to arrest Sawchak is “simply wrong.” Frey’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. In January 2016, he allegedly verbally harassed a neighbor while holding a knife and threatened to kill a neighbor, the documents say.

Democratic Rep. Colin Allred is giving the polarizing Republican Sen. Ted Cruz a run for his money, presenting him as a do-nothing extremist. There’s added intrigue as Cruz underperformed in his last Senate race in 2018, fending off former Democratic Rep. Beto O’Rourke by less than 3 points. Republican Larry Hogan won two races for governor of Maryland in 2014 and 2018, defying gravity in the deep-blue state. He’s favored in a red-leaning district previously held by centrist Democratic Rep. Ron Kind. Democratic Rep. Vicente Gonzalez is looking to hang on against Mayra Flores, a Mexican-born millennial who has promoted far-right rhetoric and is seeking to channel a resistance to transgender rights.

☆ Airline cracks down on ‘gate lice’ who skip the line

Editor’s Note: Sign up for Unlocking the World, CNN Travel’s weekly newsletter. There’s a not-very-flattering term for those exhibiting the behavior: “gate lice.”It might feel harmless, but swarming the gate can lead to congestion, confusion and longer wait times. To tackle the problem, American Airlines is trialing new technology at airports in New Mexico, Arizona and Virginia. Passengers who attempt to board before their assigned group is called will set off an error beep, alerting the gate agent — and also rule-abiding fellow passengers. Of course, you might prefer to organize your trip around another list that dropped this week: the world’s best bars for 2024.

And on Thursday, Harris delivered an unscheduled speech focused on former Trump chief of staff John Kelly confirming Trump praised Adolf Hitler’s generals. The Harris campaign argues that the plan will tip some final undecided voters — a chunk of which are disaffected Republicans or independents. The Harris campaign says it is also focused on understanding what messaging could impact the small number of undecided voters that remain in key battleground states. “The two most motivating messages for Democratic turnout are those around abortion and democracy.”Some Harris campaign officials echoed that argument. Still, some Democrats who have worked with Harris worry there is too much focus on Trump and not on Harris’ unique skills and vision.

Their memories are so short,” the man said, incredulous that any union member in Wisconsin is now backing Trump. Teamsters members who backed Harris carried out what’s considered by the campaign to be among the most persuasive of arguments: those made peer to peer. After the news broke that the national organization wouldn’t endorse Harris, however, local Teamsters groups, including many of the largest, swiftly backed Harris.

☆ Justice Department to defend DEI policy that threatens to derail Boeing deal
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-24 | by ( Evan Perez | Hannah Rabinowitz | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

O’Connor set a deadline of Friday for the administration to explain its use of so-called DEI policies in that program. The diversity language used in the Boeing criminal plea deal has been around since at least 2018 – during the Trump administration, according to a person familiar with the policy. Still, it has become a key holdup as O’Connor mulls whether to approve the plea deal. Now, the court battle playing out in Texas will decide whether to allow Boeing to plead guilty as part of a deal with the Justice Department to resolve a criminal investigation stemming from plane crashes that killed 346 people. The issue first arose at an October 11 hearing in Fort Worth, where O’Connor worked through the routine details of the plea deal before taking a sharp detour to ask why the Justice Department included DEI considerations in choosing a monitor.

There was a time, though, when any Yankees player on his way to face the Dodgers could have walked. O’Malley could not fathom that the Brooklyn Dodgers would move to Queens, so instead he set about moving the team to Los Angeles. Brooklyn Dodgers officials and employees pose in front of the club's plane at La Guardia in New York, before taking off for Los Angeles on October 23, 1957. Speaking to the New York Times in 2007, the Dodgers’ ex-general manager Buzzie Bavasi remembered that the franchise’s front office held a vote on whether to move. Six months later, the Los Angeles Dodgers played their first ever game, beating the San Francisco Giants 6-5 at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

BOSTON — The Karen Read murder case has inspired crowds of pink-clad supporters, divided a Massachusetts town and provided juicy content for true crime podcasters. Now, rubber ducks are in the mix. The 65-year-old Schiffer didn’t speak during his brief appearance in Stoughton District Court but greeted several dozen supporters outside. Several wore T-shirts emblazoned with rubber ducks, while some carried American flags or placards supporting Read. Schiffer has been among the dozens of Read supporters who accuse state and local law enforcement of a widespread coverup.

Thus far in Chimney Rock, there has been only one confirmed death in the village — an older woman who refused to leave her home on the south side of town, officials said. O’Leary said he was away on vacation when the storm struck and when he finally made it back to Chimney Rock he found himself suddenly homeless. When the NBC News crew visited, Duncan was visibly frustrated with the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s response.

ZorcJump to the full list of authors, editors and contributorsSpokespeople for Project 2025 have denied that they are advocates for any particular candidate, and Project 2025 has no official ties to the Trump campaign. To limit the appearance of connection, Mr. Trump’s transition team has been excluding prominent people linked to Project 2025 from its preparations. Project 2025 additionally calls for the dismantling of the federal Education Department, which Mr. Trump has also pledged to do.

At least four large YouTube channels devoted to firearms have announced they’re quitting the platform and moving to rival services with looser rules. YouTube, which is owned by Google, has for years imposed rules on gun videos. YouTube says gun videos are only one part of its enormous app. Responsible firearms content is just one part of this vibrant mix of communities,” the company said in a statement.

Earnings drove the stock market higher — can they do it again in the week ahead? But he acknowledged that timing is key because our portfolio discipline mandates that we consider lightening up our stock exposure in an overbought market. In fact, AMD was our worst-performing stock for the entire week, losing more than 7% following the prior week's 1.8% slide. Energy was the worst sector of the week for the market as oil prices sank. In the week ahead, housing numbers are the main draw on the economic front.

☆ Opinion | The 21 Slivers of America That Could Decide the Election

Opinion Guest Essay The 21 Slivers of America That Could Decide the Election Sebastian Siadecki for The New York TimesIn almost every presidential battleground state, polling suggests something close to a dead heat between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. For Ms. Harris and Mr. Trump, each could be a crucial building block in a winning swing-state coalition. In 2016, with Mr. Trump in the race, these areas began to march to national trends: Rural areas trended Republican, while Milwaukee’s well-off, close-in suburbs zoomed left. Still, loyalties remain potent in Wisconsin, from Democratic-leaning, ancestrally Scandinavian voters in the state’s rural west to middle-class suburban Republicans outside Milwaukee. Mr. Trump lost Nash County by just 0.2 points in 2020 and Wilson County by three points.

Trump was shot in the ear, one rallygoer was killed and two others were wounded before a Secret Service countersniper shot and killed the 20-year-old gunman. “We’ll continue to work with the department to look at those recommendations that are actionable and feasible to make changes in the Secret Service,” he said. He told NBC News that applications to join the Secret Service were up, with 400 people currently in various stages of training. Earlier this week, the two men who were wounded by the gunfire at the July rally told NBC News that the Secret Service failed them that day. A Secret Service agent spotted him and opened fire before Routh, 58, had Trump in his sights.

☆ I spent a week 'bikepacking' over 330 miles from Pittsburgh to DC. The solo journey was challenging, but I'd absolutely do it again.

I spent a week riding my bike from Pittsburgh to Washington, DC. The road was rough at times, but the people I met made the journey worthwhile. AdvertisementWhen I set out to ride my bike from Pittsburgh to Washington, DC, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. "Bikepacking" — riding a bicycle carrying clothing, food, water, and camping gear and finding places to sleep outside along the journey — is not an easy endeavor. AdvertisementAbout halfway through my ride, I met a lovely woman who was born and raised in Meyersdale.

☆ How Florence Welch Turned Rage Into Power

The musician Florence Welch, photographed in London on July 5, 2024. When I rang the Camberwell, South London, doorbell of Florence Welch, I held a tribute: “The Penguin Book of Spiritual Verse” (2022), edited by Kaveh Akbar. Exacerbating the mixed craving for and fear of having a baby and what it would mean for her art, Welch feels the intense pressure of aging as a female performer. In the latter part of the song, Welch raises her voice in a long howl of rage. Art begins in the body; art is limited by the limitations of the body; at some point, art exceeds the body and can live beyond the scope of flesh.
