At least 19 people in New Jersey are believed to have died from heat-related causes after several days of record-breaking temperatures, according to state officials.
Many of the victims were found in homes without air conditioning as temperatures climbed above 100 degrees in parts of the state. Officials say the prolonged heat placed dangerous stress on vulnerable residents.
As the heat wave begins to ease, severe storms have swept across the eastern U.S., knocking out power to nearly one million homes and businesses and raising concerns about additional flash flooding and dangerous weather.
The Trump administration plans to open a new 528-bed ICE facility in central Louisiana designed to process migrant families and unaccompanied children awaiting deportation.
The facility will be built at a former military base in Alexandria, adjacent to one of the nation's busiest hubs for deportation flights. Immigration and Customs Enforcement describes the site as a "staging facility," not a detention center.
Immigration advocates say the proposal raises concerns about whether children could be held longer than limits established under existing court agreements and legal protections.
A Delta Air Lines flight reported being struck by what the crew believed was a firework while descending into Chicago Midway International Airport during Fourth of July celebrations.
The Airbus A319, carrying 52 passengers and six crew members from Atlanta, landed safely without injuries. Delta says mechanics inspected the aircraft and found no damage.
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the incident after the flight crew reported hearing a loud bang just before landing. Air traffic control recordings also indicated there were multiple reports of fireworks near aircraft in the Chicago area that night.
Eight people, including four children, were shot during a Fourth of July cookout near New York City's Coney Island on Saturday night, police said.
Authorities say a masked gunman opened fire into the courtyard of an apartment building about a block from the famous boardwalk before fleeing the scene. Police recovered a firearm but have not announced any arrests.
A 21-year-old woman remains in critical condition, while the other seven victims — including children ages 6, 7, 12 and 14 — are expected to survive. Investigators continue searching for the suspect and are asking anyone with information to come forward.
Thousands of mourners gathered in Iran this weekend for the funeral of former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Several of Khamenei's sons were seen praying beside his coffin and those of other family members killed in recent violence. However, his successor, Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, did not attend the public funeral, drawing attention as the country continues its political transition.
The funeral came amid heightened tensions in the region following recent fighting between Iran and the United States.
WASHINGTON (AP) — A former Olympian was indicted Thursday on a felony charge in what President Donald Trump has called vandalism of the Reflecting Pool. David Hearn, a former Olympic canoe racer, was indicted on a single count of property destruction in Washington, D.C. court. He previously told The Associated Press that he reached into the pool to examine the newly peeled coating. Hearn, 67, said he stopped by the pool during a 64-mile bike ride. Trump has said federal authorities made “multiple arrests” of people he said were vandalizing the Reflecting Pool following a $14-million-plus rehabilitation project he launched for the nation’s 250th anniversary.
We think Independence Day is a celebration and an honored tradition for EVERY AMERICAN. But MS Now reject, Joy Reid, is out here claiming NO black people are celebrating the 4th of July—because of slavery. She's speaking for an entire community like it's an undeniable truth, which is absurd. Not to mention we solved THAT problem over a century ago. Just another weak attempt of the left to sow division instead of uplifting our nation. How are you celebrating America's 250th? Let us know in the comments.
