Well, Good Morning!
Let's take a look at what the day has in store for us.
So, let's dig in, shall we?
Here's What You Need To Know... Man surrenders after claiming to have bomb near US Capitol It was only after an hours-long standoff that a North Carolina man surrendered to law enforcement yesterday near the Capitol. The suspect has been identified as 49-year-old Floyd Ray Roseberry. He drove his vehicle onto the sidewalk outside the Library of Congress before making a bomb threat to police and expressing numerous grievances against the government. He live streamed this event for an audience as well.
During the livestream, Roseberry appeared to address President Biden, calling for his resignation as well as air strikes against the Taliban in Afghanistan. He also spoke about healthcare, illegal immigration, and starting a "revolution." Roseberry communicated with authorities by writing on a dry-erase board that he had in the vehicle. He refused to use a telephone that was sent to him with a police robot.
It was unclear what prompted his decision to give himself up after the roughly five-hour standoff. "As far as we could tell it was just his decision to surrender at that point," Manger said. In Cleveland County, N.C., where Roseberry lives, law-enforcement officials told reporters they'd secured his residence and were in the process of getting warrants to search his property.
String of violent robberies in Chicago tied to group of teens Chicago police are warning residents about a group of teens that have attacked and robbed victims in at least five different incidents since Saturday. They are thought to be behind a robbery Saturday night, two on Sunday evening, and two on Monday morning in broad daylight.
Police have described the group as anywhere between 3 to 12 individuals ranging in age from 12 to 19. They are said to demand their victim's personal items then surround them, beating them until they comply. One woman was left in critical condition after being attacked by the group.
Crime has been at the forefront of issues Chicago grapples with. Over the past weekend alone 56 people were shot, 8 fatally. Mayor Lori Lightfoot took office in 2019 on the promise of reducing gun violence, but through July of this year there were 10% more gun violence victims than the year before. Considering that the year prior had also had a 36% jump in people shot, the mayor is under intense scrutiny. Chicago isn't alone in the major increase in gun violence, either.
Medical examiner: Illinois man visiting park killed by bear The chief medical examiner in North Carolina says a man visiting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park last year was likely killed by a bear, the National Park Service said Thursday. A park service statement said the death of Patrick Madura, 43, of Elgin, Illinois, was the second bear-related fatality in the history of the park.
Madura was on a multi-day backpack in the park that straddles the Tennessee-North Carolina border and had reserved backcountry campsite 82 for the night of September 8, park officials said. Three days later, backpackers coming down the trail spotted his unoccupied tent, and then noticed a black bear scavenging his remains.
The hikers quickly left to obtain cell coverage and report the incident to the authorities. Law enforcement rangers and wildlife officers reached the campsite shortly after midnight, confirmed the report of a deceased adult human male, and killed a bear seen scavenging on the remains.
Most fatal attacks by North American black bears during the past century were conducted by lone, male animals that stalked and then killed their human victims as prey, according to a new study by the world's top authority on what triggers bear attacks. Reducing this risk might hinge on recognizing predatory behavior by the animals when it happens, and then taking other reasonable precautions when traveling or living in black bear territory.
