(BCN) -- Police in American Canyon on Wednesday apprehended suspects in a city of Napa grand theft case, the department said Friday.Shortly after 4 p.m., police spotted a vehicle matching the description of one allegedly involved in a grand theft from the Sunglass Hut store in Napa. The silver van was heading south on state Highway 29 and was driven by a woman with a male passenger.Officers attempted to stop the vehicle, but it failed to yield, police said. A pursuit ensued and police employed spike strips that deflated the suspects' tires. Nonetheless, the vehicle continued to evade officers, though its speed was impeded due to two flat tires. At this point, police used a PIT maneuver, a tactical driving technique used by law enforcement to corral suspects. The van eventually came to a stop on the side of the highway, police said.(Photo: American Canyon Police Department)The driver, Desirea Washington, and passenger Kevin Murphy, both from Oakland, were arrested.

Donald Trump has now been indicted twice in just over two months, in separate cases involving accusations of unrelated crimes. Both times, Republicans have rallied around him. The group of whiners and weaklings who are running against Trump for next year’s Republican presidential nomination are so intimidated by his hold on the party’s base that they are afraid to publicly tell the truth, which is that Trump is a thug who should be in prison instead of the White House.How many indictments will it take to wake Republicans from their fever dream?Trump was indicted in April on New York state charges in c...WTOP’s Beer of the Week: Forest & Main Dark Mild Ale

(CNN) — Desde el comienzo de esta semana —incluso con la atención sobre las secuelas del colapso de la represa de Nova Kakhovka— está claro que las fuerzas de Ucrania intensificaron sus actividades a lo largo de la línea del frente en el sureste de la ciudad de Zaporiyia.Pero aún es demasiado pronto para obtener una imagen real de lo que está pasando y saber hasta qué punto Ucrania realmente tiene los pies en la tierra e intenta conseguir un gran avance.Este jueves, el canal Telegram del Ministerio de Defensa de Rusia citó al ministro Sergei Shoigu, diciendo que la 47.ª Brigada Mecanizada de Ucrania había realizado cuatro intentos de atravesar las líneas rusas con hasta 1.500 personas y 150 vehículos blindados.Una escultura por cada niño muerto: mira cómo esta artista conmemora a los jóvenes que perdieron la vida en UcraniaLos ataques fueron repelidos, dijo Shoigu, y agregó que las fuerzas ucranianas sufrieron pérdidas significativas tanto de soldados como de armas.

OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — A Canadian government appointee looking into allegations of Chinese interference in Canada announced Friday that he is stepping down from his role, citing the highly partisan atmosphere around his work.Former Governor General David Johnston said in a letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that his leadership of the government’s probe into purported meddling by China has not helped build trust in democratic institutions because of partisanship.The appointment of Johnston, who said he would release a brief final report, was contentious, with opposition Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre accusing him of being too close to Trudeau’s family.All opposition parties in the House of Commons have called for the government to hold a public inquiry into the allegations of foreign interference, but Johnston recently released a report recommending against that.Johnston said he encourages Trudeau to appoint a “respected person, with national security experience” to ...Why a DC-area health department is using dating apps to spread sexual health information

This Pride Month, the Maryland Department of Health has launched a “Get Your Pride On” campaign aimed at spreading information about sexual health, and it’s using dating apps to reach LGBTQ users.Peter DeMartino, director of the department’s infectious disease prevention bureau, said it’s the first time the state has launched this type of initiative during Pride Month. The campaign is different, he said, because it’s not only inclusive of the LGBTQIA community, but “it’s also probably the first time that we’ve released an integrated sexual health campaign.”The health department will be at many Pride events across Maryland, but the primary focus of the initiative is promoting mpox vaccinations, testing for HIV and sexually transmitted infections and spreading information about pre-exposure prophylaxis prep for HIV prevention.“You want to know what your blood sugar is, you want to know what your cholesterol is,” D...Astros place slugger Yordan Alvarez on IL with sore oblique

It’s his seventh career IL stint.The 25-year-old outfielder returned to Houston for additional evaluation.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Nevada has taken a dramatic, but not immediate, step toward limiting the amount of Colorado River water used in the most populous part of the nation’s most arid state, after lawmakers gave Las Vegas-area water managers the levers to limit flows to single-family homes.Gov. Joe Lombardo signed a law passed by the Democratic-controlled Legislature to let the Southern Nevada Water Authority restrict the amount of water provided to homes — if the federal government further dials back Nevada’s share of water drawn from the river.“This legislation builds on our efforts to protect sustainable growth on the county and state levels,” the Republican governor said in a Tuesday signing statement that cited goals of balancing economic expansion with ensuring “clean and stable water into the future.”In the Las Vegas area, ornamental lawns are already banned, swimming pool sizes are limited, almost all water inside homes is recycled, “water cops” patrol for leaks and fountains on t...Aurora PD releases video of teen’s death after being shot by officers
