The driver, Phillip Palmer, 71, of Cincinnati, was being held without bond at the Clermont County jail, Cincinnati.com reported. He is scheduled to appear in Clermont County Municipal Court at 10 a.m. Friday, the report said.

The victim, identified as Nick Young, 38, of Washington Township, was airlifted to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center late Thursday, authorities said. He was listed in stable condition Friday but no update was available, the website reported.

Additional charges against Palmer are pending after the Clermont County Prosecutor’s Office presents its case to a grand jury, the sheriff’s office said.

Deputies were called to the gas station at 8:42 p.m. by patrons who reported the shooting, sheriff’s officials said.

When deputies arrived, they discovered the suspect had fled the scene in a taxi cab he was driving, Cincinnati.com reported.

Deputies were asked to keep an eye out for a taxi cab travelling westbound on U.S. 52 away from the scene, the report said.

A taxi cab matching the description was located and detained by the New Richmond Police Department in the village of New Richmond, according to the sheriff’s office.

The cub was observed being born at 12:43 a.m. Thursday from mounted cameras, the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium announced.

“The #Columbus Zoo is #thankful to welcome a new polar bear cub born on Thanksgiving Day at 12:43a to mother Aurora and father, Lee!,” the zoo said on Twitter. “Aurora is being an attentive mom, and the Animal Care team has observed the cub nursing in the private den.”

The 13-year-old Aurora has mothered three other cubs, however, this is her first cub with 20-year-old Lee, Fox 8 Cleveland reported.

Lee arrived at the Columbus Zoo from Denver Zoo on November 7, 2018, a move urged by The Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Species Survival Plan, the station reported.

The program is designed to maximize genetic diversity and increase the population sustainability of threatened and endangered species in human care, according to the station.

“We are heartbroken to announce the passing of Det. Jorge Del Rio who succumbed to a line of duty injury today,” the Dayton Police Department tweeted.

“Earlier today at Grandview Hospital, Det. Del Rio acted to save lives through the generous gift of organ donation.”

Del Rio, a 30-year veteran of the department, was shot while working with a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) task force, Police Chief Richard Biehl had said.

He was on life support in “grave condition” and had suffered injuries “that are tragically not survivable,” police had said.

Dayton police said detectives had knocked and announced themselves as law enforcement officers before entering a home Monday just before 7 p.m.

Del Rio was shot in the face as he started to go down basement stairs, police said.

A fellow officer rushed him to a hospital because his injuries were so severe, according to investigators.

No one else was injured. Police said four adults and a juvenile were “secured at the scene.” The four adults were being held on felony drug charges.

Cash, fentanyl and marijuana, along with three weapons each containing a 30-round magazine, were recovered from the scene, investigators said.

The suspected shooter, Nathan Goddard, 39, was charged with felonious assault on an agent, according to U.S. Attorney Dave DeVillers.

News station WCMH-TV reported that on Wednesday, Areica Hill reportedly woke up to find another woman in her home preparing to give her son a bath.

“I get up and I walk to my door and the way my house is set up, I can look down the hall,” Hill said. “I see a white female lady, bent over the tub, with my 2-year-old in the tub.”

Areica Hill said she got her child off of the woman’s grasp and then got her boyfriend restrain the intruder until authorities took over on arrival.

WCMH-TV reported that Elizabeth Hixon, the alleged 22-year-old intruder, has been apprehended and also charged with burglary.

And according to the report,

Elizabeth Hixon was set free after posting bond in Franklin County Municipal Court.

“My daughter had only good intentions,” Elizabeth Hixon’s mother told the TV station when she was reached by phone.

The dorm was put on lockdown after the baby was found in a garbage bag at 10:48 a.m. by a school maintenance worker, who contacted Hiram Village Police immediately, according to Police Chief Brian Gregory.

“We’re in a state of shock. We are mourning as a campus community. We’re a small community, a very kind and caring one, so this has taken us by surprise and we are doing everything we can to restore a sense of health and good welfare for our students and our faculty and staff,” the school’s president, Lori Varlotta told WEWS-TV. “We have a clinical psychologist on staff who’s meeting with students who want to do personal counseling. We have a very active chaplain who is providing ministerial services.”

The cause of death isn’t known at this time, and Hiram police have launched an investigation with assistance from the state Bureau of Criminal Investigations.

The Portage County Coroner, Dr. Dean DePerro, told Fox 8 that it’s unclear how long the newborn — who was either full-term or nearly full-term — had been in the bathroom. He says it’s unknown if the infant was delivered alive or stillborn.

“The death of a child is always difficult,” said Dr. DePerro told the outlet. “It never gets easier.”

DePerro says the mother was identified late Friday night, where she was reportedly taken to a local hospital for treatment. School officials had urged the mother to seek medical treatment earlier in the day, according to WEWS-TV.

“She should feel free to come forward to get medical attention and to come forward to anybody at the college for help for counseling — to make sure she gets to the appropriate places in a very timely way,” Varlotta told the station.

The baby’s remains were taken to the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner for a full autopsy.

Shannon Ferraby lived next to Hiram College — a private liberal arts college — for over 10 years. She hopes other moms know there are resources out there if you’re ever feeling overwhelmed.

“I know that myself and other moms will make sure now that people know there are resources,” Ferraby told WOIO. “I’d be happy to talk to her, pray with her, see if she still needs help. “She probably is scared to tell anyone. That’s a terrible place to be in.”

Varlotta says the university has a “wide array” of mental health services while adding that the school does its best to provide resources towards students in need.

Hiram College is about 45 miles southeast of Cleveland.

The gunman who carried out a deadly mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio, this month had cocaine and other drugs in his system at the time, a according to a coroner’s report.

In a news conference on Thursday the Montgomery County coroner, Dr. Kent Harshbarger, said cocaine, antidepressants and alcohol were found in Connor Betts’ system when he opened fire with an AR-15 style gun in the city’s historic Oregon District on Aug. 4, killing nine people before police shot and killed him. That shooting came just hours after another deadly gun rampage, this time in El Paso, Texas.

Harshbarger added that investigators also found a pipe device and a clear bag containing cocaine on the 24-year-old Betts.

The coroner also told reporters that two people shot by Betts also were shot by police, but none fatally. He said all the deadly gunshot wounds to the nine victims came from Betts’ weapon.

Harshbarger said police shot Betts about 24 times in all, mostly striking his upper torso and lower extremities.

Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl said the officers’ goal at the time was to “immediately stop the killing.”

On Tuesday, Biehl said Betts shot 26 people in the span of 32 seconds before responding officers fatally shot him.

Surveillance footage released this week, which was pieced together from several local businesses, showed Betts spending nearly two hours in the area before his spree began.

Betts was first caught on camera in the area at 11:04 p.m. when he parked his car and walked to a bar, Blind Bob’s, with his sister Megan and another companion.

The mass shooting — one of the worst in modern United States’ history — unfolded at a Walmart around 11 a.m. Saturday, as 21-year-old suspect Patrick Crusius, allegedly opened fire in the store, initially killing at least 20 and injuring another 26.

Police and hospital officials announced that two additional people who were wounded in the attack died Monday.

The Walmart was almost full at the time of the shooting, with hundreds of shoppers inside along with 100 employees during the busy back-to-school shopping season.

Crusius was booked on capital murder charges. Authorities said on Sunday that the crimes he’s accused of are being investigated as domestic terrorism. Officials were also looking into whether hate crime charges against Crusius are appropriate.

El Paso District Attorney Jaime Esparza said his office will seek the death penalty against the suspect.

“The loss of life is so great, we certainly have never seen this in our community. We are a very safe community,” he told reporters at a news conference on Sunday. “We pride ourselves on the fact that we’re so safe, and certainly this community is rocked, shocked and saddened by what has happened here yesterday.”

Also, a few hours later, a gunman wearing a mask, bulletproof vest, earplugs and carrying a rifle capable of holding at least 100 rounds also opened fire, outside a bar in Dayton, Ohio. At least nine people were killed and 27 others were wounded.

Some victims of the El Paso mass shooting have been identified. Among those killed was a 60-year-old man at the self-checkout line while his wife was in the bathroom, a 15-year-old who was weeks away from starting 10th grade and six Mexican citizens. A mother-of-three, who was shielding her 2-year-old son from gunfire, was fatally shot — her husband was, too.

Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl told reporters at a news conference that 24-year-old Connor Betts, who was armed with a .223-caliber rifle, had a gun that was modified in a way he felt was “fundamentally problematic.”

Biehl also added that if all of the magazines that Betts had were full  — which has yet to be confirmed as police have not had a chance to examine them fully — he would have had a max of 250 rounds, not excluding loose rounds found on the ground near him as well as in a backpack the 24-year-old was carrying at the time. Investigators have so far recovered at least 41 spent shell casings that are believed to have been from Betts.

“You can well understand in a very dynamic and chaotic scene as this was, with people running through the crime scene, with first responders running through the crime scene, with EMS traveling through the crime scene, evidence can be lost,” the police chief told reporters.

Adding shell casings that was recovered from Betts’ weapon, investigators have collected 48 45-caliber casings, 16 .233 casings and one shotgun shell casing that are believed to have been fired from the weapons of the six police officers who “neutralized” the gunman within 30 seconds after the first of “dozens of rounds.”

The police chief said that it’s not known if Betts solely targeted any of his victims in the popular entertainment district early Sunday. However, found it very hard to believe he didn’t recognize his sister, 22-year-old Megan Betts, when he opened fire and killed her and eight others.

“It seems to just defy believability he would shoot his own sister, but it’s also hard to believe that he didn’t recognize it was his sister, so we just don’t know,” Biehl said.

While the gunman was white and six of the nine killed were black, police said the quickness of the rampage made any discrimination factor in the shooting seem unlikely.

McConnell hurt his shoulder right after he tripped and fell while on the outside patio of his Louisville home. The specifics of his injury, such as which shoulder was injured, was not revealed.

“This morning, Leader McConnell tripped at home on his outside patio and suffered a fractured shoulder,” David Popp, McConnell’s communications director, said in a statement.

The 77-year-old was treated and released and is working from his home, Popp said.

McConnell returned to Kentucky after the Senate began a five-week recess Thursday, hailing the chamber for a hard-won budget deal that staves off a possible government shutdown.

The statement said the senator had expressed his sympathies to the people of El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, following the recent mass shootings in those communities and that he had been in touch with Republican Sens. John Cornyn of Texas and Rob Portman of Ohio to “express his deepest sympathies for the people of El Paso and Dayton and discuss the senseless tragedies of this weekend.”

Mass shootings within hours of each other in both cities killed a combined 29 people and injured dozens more.

Several Democrats including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., called on McConnell to call the Senate back Capitol Hill for an emergency session to debate and vote on universal background checks legislation.

The Department of Defense said in a statement that 20-year-old Pfc. Brandon Jay Kreischer of Stryker, Ohio, and 24-year-old Spc. Michael Isaiah Nance of Chicago died “as a result of wounds sustained in a combat related incident” on Monday in Tarin Kowt, located in the southern part of Afghanistan.

“These young men were true All Americans and embodied the qualities of selfless service and courage as they answered our nation’s call to deploy to Afghanistan,” Col. Arthur Sellers, Commander of the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, said in a statement. “Our focus is now providing their loved ones with every available resource to help them in this most difficult time.”

Both soldiers were assigned to the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division, based in Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

Nance got into the Army in early 2017, and completed Basic Combat Training, Advanced Individual Training and Airborne School at Fort Benning, Ga. before being assigned to 1-505th PIR as an automatic rifleman, according to the Pentagon. He is survived by his father in Chicago and mother in Glenwood, Illinois.

The 24-year-old’s awards and decorations include the Purple Heart, the Bronze Star Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, the Afghanistan Campaign Medal, and the Global War on Terror Service Medal, the Combat Infantryman Badge, and the Basic Parachutist Badge.
