A developing story out of Canada. Our CNN affiliate 3, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation is reporting a helicopter carrying 18 people has crashed in the Atlantic Ocean off Newfoundland.

People in Germany and around the world are struggling to understand why a teenager opened fire at his former school. Police say 16 people died in two small German towns including the shooter who is believed to have taken his own life. Most of these victims were female and today they are all being remembered in what Germany's chancellor 5 is calling " a national day of mourning".


Back here in the US that other shooting that just has happened-- the man who killed ten people in Alabama. Well, he was once a police officer. Michael McLendon was an officer in Samson Alabama in 2003 but he didn't finish his training. Investigators 6 say they may have found McLendon's motive 7 but they won't elaborate.


The judge in the murder trial of Miller 8 Dossett Leath has declared a mistrial in the case. Jurors indicate twice that they are unable to reach a unanimous verdict. The woman was on trial for the 2003 death of her second husband.
