| Rock slides close Juneau's North Douglas Highway; One lane open for emergency vehicles Juneau residents will have to hold off on the North Douglas bonfires for a couple days — the North Douglas Highway is closed because of a because of a rock slide. One lane on the highway is open for emergency vehicles, but it is closed to the public past the North Douglas boat launch. Alaska Department of Transportation spokesperson Sam Dapcevich said the start of the slide was at around 500 feet of elevation, and he doesn't know yet when it will be safe to open the road. "When material comes loose from that height, it builds up quite a bit of speed by the time it gets down to the road. So we're keeping the road closed at this time," he said. A geologist will be going up to the start of the slide to see if more rocks could come down, Dapcevich said. KTOO-FM 104.3 JUNEAU PREVIOUS STATE NEWS |

| VIDEO: Traffic Cameras Capture Fiery Crash Involving Suspected Impaired Driver In Minnesota A driver suspected of being under the influence crashed into a box truck on a north metro overpass Monday afternoon, causing a fiery chain reaction. The Minnesota State Patrol says the crash happened at about 2:30 p.m. on Highway 10 over MN 65 in Spring Lake Park. A MnDOT camera captured the incident, showing a speeding sedan driving erratically onto the highway from an on-ramp. The sedan strikes the front of the eastbound box truck, causing the truck driver to overcorrect and smash into the highway's side wall, nearly driving off the overpass onto MN 65. The box truck then becomes engulfed in flames. There were only two drivers involved in the crash, and both suffered injuries described as non-life threatening. Investigators suspect the driver of the sedan was "driving while impaired." The state patrol is investigating. WCCO-TV CBS 4 MINNEAPOLIS Brooklyn subway shooting leaves 28 injured, 'dangerous' suspect at large: New York officials VIDEOS/PHOTOS: A manhunt is underway in New York City for a suspect accused of donning a gas mask, setting off a smoke canister and opening fire inside a Brooklyn subway train and station during the morning commute Tuesday, injuring at least 28 people, five of whom are in critical condition. The attack began around 8:24 a.m., as a Manhattan-bound N train approached the 36th St. station in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. The suspect, described as an approximately 5-foot-5 Black male with a heavy build, is still at large and is "dangerous," New York Gov. Kathy Hochul told reporters nearly four hours after the shooting. The suspect's shots struck multiple people on the subway car and on the platform, New York Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell said. He was wearing a green "construction type" vest and a hooded gray sweatshirt. The suspect has not been identified by authorities, Sewell said. FOX NEWS Pennsylvania: 140 years of the Lancaster city fire department A bell rings, shaking the bricks of the building below at 411 W. King St. in Lancaster. The sound is familiar – something's on fire. Horses rush from the stable behind the firehouse. Firefighters latch on their heavy equipment, driving the teams toward the smoke, hooves thundering and equipment clanking through narrow city streets. It's nearing the end of the 19th century, and the county's first paid fire department is settling into its role. The Lancaster City Bureau of Fire, which marks its 140th anniversary this month, is one of the oldest paid fire departments in Pennsylvania. The first was Philadelphia in 1871. Fourteen decades. Nearly 1,000 firefighters filed through the ranks, led by 17 chiefs. Thousands of blazes extinguished. Eleven firefighters' lives lost in the line of duty. Countless lives saved. Hundreds of properties salvaged. LNP/LANCASTER ONLINE - METERED SITE 'I wanted to scream:' Chilean woman reunites with son, a firefighter in Texas, who was stolen at birth VIDEO: A Houston firefighter opens up about being stolen shortly after birth and his journey to Chile to connect with the birth mother he never knew. Before his journey, Tyler Graf said he was just an ordinary 38-year-old man with a wife and child. "I was adopted by a very loving, caring family," Graf said. "I think it was just knowing that my story did start before I was adopted. So, it's kind of like missing the first five minutes of the movie." After becoming a father, Graf tried to learn about his birth family. Suddenly, he got a call he never expected. "That's when they sat me down and told me who I was, how they know who I am and what the true backstory really is," Graf said. He had been stolen from his birth mother, who was told her son died shortly after birth. The practice of coercive adoptions became widespread under dictator Augusto Pinochet's reign in Chile during the 1970s and 1980s. KTRK-TV ABC 13 HOUSTON PREVIOUS NATIONAL NEWS |
