Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 18:15:37 GMT

D.C. law enforcement officials are confident that someone is harboring the murder suspect who escaped from police custody on Sept. 6, Assistant Chief of the Investigative Services Bureau Carlos Heraud said at a news conference Monday.Police are receiving tips daily on the whereabouts of 30-year-old Christopher Haynes, according to Heraud.“He’s not out there surviving on his own,” Heraud said. “And anybody that we identify that’s assisted him in aiding and abetting us, fleeing from the area or harboring him, any charges that we can put on them, we will, because we know he’s not doing it on his own.”It has been nearly two weeks since Haynes was arrested on a D.C. arrest warrant related to the Aug. 12 shooting death of 33-year-old Brent Hayward. On the afternoon of his arrest, police said Haynes complained about a preexisting ankle injury and was brought to the George Washington University Hospital for treatment.As an officer was trying to secu...

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Cleveland Browns star running back Nick Chubb was carted off the field with a left knee injury against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night.Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick came in low for a tackle at the end of a 5-yard run early in the second quarter and delivered a hit to Chubb’s legs. Chubb’s knee buckled underneath him.After the play, a teammate grabbed Chubb’s hand to try to help him to his feet, and Chubb shook his head while clutching his left knee. He undid his chinstrap and rolled over onto his side.Chubb suffered a serious injury to the same knee in 2015 while in college at Georgia — a dislocation with three torn ligaments. Like the previous injury, the one Monday night was difficult to watch, and ESPN declined to show replays of the play where he was hurt.Chubb remained on the ground for several minutes while teammates gathered in prayer nearby. He eventually left on a cart.NBA star and Ohio native LeBron James and Baltimore Raven...

RTD stabbing suspect had just met with parole officer, records show

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 18:15:37 GMT

DENVER (KDVR) — New information on Vinchenzo Moscoso, the suspect in deadly stabbings on an RTD bus and at a bus stop Thursday, shows he had a lengthy criminal background. Documents obtained by FOX31 show Moscoso was currently on parole for aggravated robbery but also note other violations, including trespassing."To say that this individual should have never been out in the community is easy to say in hindsight,” FOX31 legal analyst Chris Decker said. “The problem is sorting out who we should release, when we should release them, what level of supervision, when do we decide to revoke people and send them back to prison. These are very difficult decisions." Moscoso, 29, was arrested in the killing of a woman near an RTD bus stop near Regis University. Soon after, police connected him to another deadly stabbing earlier that morning on an RTD bus.Vinchenzo Moscoso was arrested in two deadly stabbings on Sept. 14, 2023.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Rob Refsnyder hit a go-ahead two-run single in the eighth inning and the Boston Red Sox snapped a four-game losing streak with a 4-2 win over the playoff-chasing Texas Rangers, who lost their fourth in a row even after getting two All-Star players back in their lineup Monday night.Boston rallied against reliever Will Smith (2-7), who walked No. 8 batter Luis Urias and then gave up a double that snapped No. 9 batter Connor Wong’s 0-for-17 slide. Refsnyder’s one-out hit that made it 3-2 came after Rafael Devers, with 10 hits his previous 21 at-bats, was intentionally walked. Adam Duvall followed with a sac fly.Marcus Semien, the only Rangers player to start all 150 of their games, hit another leadoff homer and had an RBI single.Texas (82-68), already guaranteed its first winning record since 2016, began the day one game ahead of Seattle for the American League’s third and final wild-card spot.

Refsnyder leads Red Sox to rare late comeback over Rangers

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 18:15:37 GMT

For too much of this season, the stars haven’t aligned for the Red Sox.When their pitching is on, their hitting is off. When their lineup is hot, it’s often because their pitching is ice cold.But on Monday night in Texas, the Red Sox managed to pitch and hit, and as a result, overcame an early deficit and snapped their four-game losing streak with a 4-2 victory over the Rangers.Kutter Crawford’s excellent night was bookended by trouble, but he was able to work his way out of both jams with minimal damage. The series opener’s starter began the bottom of the first by giving up a first-pitch leadoff home run to Marcus Semien, putting Boston in an immediate 1-0 hole. The Red Sox entered the series 26-52 when opponents score first, so the early deficit didn’t bode well for their starter or the game’s outcome.But after a one-out single in the first, the 27-year-old right-hander settled down and retired the next 14 batters en route to a quality start. In front of a crowd that include...

By ROB GILLIES (Associated Press)TORONTO (AP) — India’s foreign ministry has rejected Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s allegations in the slaying of a Sikh activist as “absurd.”The ministry’s statement added that Trudeau made similar allegations to Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the recent G20 summit, which it also rejected.“Such unsubstantiated allegations seek to shift the focus from Khalistani terrorists and extremists, who have been provided shelter in Canada and continue to threaten India’s sovereignty and territorial integrity,” the statement noted, adding that India was concerned over the inaction of the Canadian government. The statement was released after Canada expelled a top Indian diplomat Monday as it investigated what Trudeau called credible allegations that India’s government may have had links to the assassination in Canada of a Sikh activist.Trudeau said in Parliament that Canadian intelligence age...
